Chapter 395 "Antimatter Cannon"
Good news, finally found the local civilization.
This anti-universe is not really a ghost cave, at least there is a civilization.
Bad news, the local civilization seems to regard them as invaders.
Several vague thoughts flashed through Chen Fan's mind quickly, trying to find a way to prevent the real outbreak of the conflict.
But...
before he could come to his senses, the picture sent back by the detector had changed!
Bright beams of light shot out from the muzzles of fixed turrets, passing through the empty starry sky and rushing straight towards the direction of the detector! !
The beams were dazzling.
Hundreds of beams of light with white light made the surrounding starry sky extremely bright!
This is like a defensive war with all efforts! !
"Fuck!"
Chen Fan's face was shocked, and he exclaimed and cast his eyes on Wang Jing in the main driver's seat.
Wang Jing didn't look panicked by this sudden and unprovoked attack. On the contrary, she was interested in the analysis data sent back by the detector.
"Don't panic."
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan, whose face changed drastically, and said softly, "The detectors sent to the Anti-Varilla star system are standard detectors for scientific research ships. They not only have powerful detection capabilities, but also have certain self-protection capabilities."
"In theory, no civilization below level eight can cause damage to it."
Chen Fan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He was not afraid of problems with the detector...
He was afraid that this civilization that he had finally found would "go astray"!
If they had rashly attacked the research ship of the Human Alliance, if it had happened in other conventional cosmic bubbles, this civilization would have been extinct eight hundred times!
Fortunately.
Looking at Wang Jing's interested expression, this civilization born in a special cosmic bubble was obviously treated preferentially.
Under Chen Fan's gaze, Wang Jing reached out and pressed a few virtual buttons on the control interface in front of her.
[Warning! The detector shield has been shut down! ]
Buzz! ! !
As a line of prompt information flashed on the holographic interface, the output power of the detector's shield was instantly reduced, and the originally light golden shield even disappeared directly into the visible universe.
Not only that, it did not make any evasive movements, but just quietly hovered in the starry sky, waiting for the bombardment of hundreds of bright beams in front.
"Hey? No!!"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Fan felt dumbfounded.
What the hell is this operation?
How can you actively shut down the shield in the face of enemy attacks?
Chen Fan widened his eyes and looked at Wang Jing with an incredible look: "Academician Wang, you are..."
Operational error!
Definitely an operational error!
Sure enough, academicians are not perfect, and mistakes will still occur in the face of war...
Just when Chen Fan was mentally prepared for the detector to suffer losses, Wang Jing's face showed a faint smile.
"Don't worry, this attack looks powerful, but for us..."
"No threat at all."
...
Boom!!!
Without the intervention of the shield system, countless bright white beams crossed each other and bombarded the surface of the spherical detector with incredible precision.
What is surprising is that even though the number of beams is still increasing, even though the beams have actually hit the outer armor of the detector.
But...
no warning information appears.
The cockpit of the research ship is peaceful, and even the original shield shutdown warning signal has been silently withdrawn by the shipboard main brain.
"This..."
Chen Fan is a little confused about the battle situation in front of him.
Such a dense fixed artillery defense line, such a powerful offensive...
The result... is just this?
"According to the judgment criteria of the Human Union, the attack method used by the other party is the 'antimatter' particle cannon."
As Wang Jing's voice sounded, a series of parameters quickly emerged in the holographic interface in front of everyone.
"Antimatter cannon?"
Chen Fan's face was stern, the power of this thing is not small!
Even if the detector of the research ship uses strong interaction force armor, without the protection of the shield, it theoretically cannot withstand the attack of the antimatter cannon! Just
as these thoughts flashed through his mind, Hongshi's soft chuckle suddenly came from behind him: "So that's it... No wonder you said that the other party's attack poses no threat to us."
Chen Fan: "...?"
How come it's like that?
"This is an antimatter cannon, how come..."
Chen Fan suddenly realized the problem halfway through his words.
They are now in the anti-universe. To the civilization of the anti-universe, antiparticles are normal matter in their eyes, and the antimatter in their eyes...
to put it bluntly, is actually just the regular matter that can be found everywhere in the node universe.
After thinking it through, Chen Fan shook his head with a smile.
"These 'antimatter' particle cannons use proton beams as their attack method."
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan with a smile: "The white light you see is nothing more than the light released by the mutual annihilation of protons and antiparticles in interstellar space."
"This attack is very effective for objects in the anti-universe."
"But for us..." Wang Jing's smile deepened, "Do you know about stellar wind? To put it bluntly, for us, these 'antimatter cannons' are equivalent to enhanced stellar winds."
Chen Fan was speechless.
"Since they have mastered antimatter weapons, according to the classification standards of the Human Union, this civilization is at least a fourth-level civilization."
Wang Jing's eyes were more and more interested: "Without any civilization around, they can develop to this level behind closed doors. It seems that this civilization has great potential..."
...
After several minutes of volleys of "antimatter cannons", the bright white light column in the starry sky gradually dissipated.
Under the continuous bombardment of these "antimatter cannons", the number of antiparticles in this star field was almost completely dissipated, and replaced by a rather sparse proton cloud.
Thanks to this, these dozens of scientific research ship detectors can travel freely in the surrounding starry sky without even turning on the shield again.
So...
under Wang Jing's control, these detectors began to fly up and down in the proton cloud, showing their super high mobility to the civilization in front of them, trying to attract the attention and attention of the other party.
For those fixed turrets and the civilization behind them...
the scene in front of them is nothing short of a horror movie - being able to wander freely without protection in a star field with such a dense "antimatter", the technological content contained in it is simply...
unimaginable! !
Sure enough.
After those fixed turrets fell into a stagnant state, several small starships with a scale of just over 100 meters hurriedly drove out from the interior of the star system.
They "timidly" stayed behind the turret array, watching these detectors beyond cognitive common sense from a distance.
Obviously, the detectors in front of them made these natives feel terrified and scared.
The starship appeared, and Wang Jing, who had achieved his goal, quickly controlled the detector to hover in the proton cloud and sent an electromagnetic wave communication message to the other party.
...
For the Human Union, dealing with unknown civilizations is a very common thing.
The Human Union even designed a fairly complete communication plan for this purpose - based on basic mathematics and basic physics, so as to build a dictionary that fits both parties.
At least in the material universe, this way of communication is very effective. Even a first-level civilization that has just entered the starry sky can communicate well.
Although the distance between the two universes is a bit far, the way of thinking of intelligent creatures is still similar.
While waiting for a reply, Chen Fan and his group carefully looked at the appearance of the three small starships.
The starship is flat as a whole, and the lines of the hull are stiff. At first glance, it looks like a piece of wood chopped casually with an axe.
At first glance, the shape of these starships is very unfamiliar.
But if you think about it carefully, they can bring Chen Fan an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
The rough and rigid hull structure is combined very cleverly, and the overall construction style reveals a faint domineering from the inside out.
In addition, the shape of the hull, which does not consider the space utilization rate, also indirectly confirms that the other party's resources are not scarce.
Thinking of the obviously over-dense fixed turrets just now, it is not difficult to make a judgment - this civilization has quite abundant resources!
Usually this trait only appears in some powerful high-level civilizations.
A small fourth-level civilization should consider how to spend every bit of resources on the blade.
"These starships..."
Chen Fan frowned, carefully recalling the many starships he had seen before, and finally, he set his sights on the ghost fleet he had just seen not long ago.
Although the starships of the ghost fleet are not flat, there is one thing that is very similar to the two - like the ghost fleet, the three starships in front of them also have a faint majestic temperament.
To put it nicely, it is the aura of being the only one in the world; to put it bluntly, it is the temperament of a nouveau riche with abundant resources and casual fabrication.
Of course, compared with the ghost fleet, the aura of these three starships is not obvious, and it is not even noticeable if you don't carefully try to feel it.
Chen Fan whispered softly: "Why do I feel that these starships seem to have some connection with the ghost fleet..."
"It's true that they are a bit similar."
Wang Jing quickly circled some sharp lines on the side of the starship in the holographic picture: "If I remember correctly, the ghost fleet also has a similar broken line structure on its hull."
"Master brain!" Wang Jing's heart moved, and he directly issued an order, "Compare the construction styles of the two."
The architectural style of a civilization is affected by various factors.
Although this architectural style will change over time, its essential core will basically not change.
Therefore, in most cases, the construction style of starships and buildings can be regarded as the identity card of a civilization.
Under Wang Jing's command, the main interface in the cockpit simultaneously displayed the images of the ghost fleet and the three starships in front of him.
According to the specific algorithm of the Academy of Sciences, the shipboard master brain began to compare the construction styles of both parties.
After a short wait, the shipboard master brain gave the judgment result.
[The style similarity is 39.1%. ]
Looking at the comparison results in front of him, Chen Fan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
A bit similar, but not much.
