Time flies.
The year is 3637 in the Earth calendar.
A massive structure the size of the moon, escorted by a small fleet, broke free from warp drive and arrived near the HIP star system.
【Stellar Core Reaction Interference Device】, codenamed 【Xihe】.
It must be said that the pie in the sky that Academician Mao Zhengzhi painted was quite tempting.
The Academy of Sciences elevated matters related to the Nus Civilization to its second priority.
...
【Xihe】slowly approached a star in the HIP star system.
The Xihe megastructure, the size of the moon, is as insignificant as a tiny sesame seed in the face of a massive star.
But this tiny speck of light has the power to cause drastic changes to a star!
In the Kepler-452 star system, 23 light-years away, Zero temporarily suspended all unimportant calculations and concentrated all the idle computing power on [Xihe], as ordered by Lü Yongchang.
Under Zero's remote control, the spherical structure of [Xihe] slowly cracked open, revealing its complex Grand Unified Field Generation Device.
As the power of the antimatter engine continues to increase, the strength of the Grand Unified Field also continues to increase.
On the surface of the star, tiny ripples gradually appeared.
The next moment.
A thick purple laser beam shot out from inside [Xihe] and rushed straight toward the star not far away!
The purple laser beam, containing immense energy, instantly plunged into the star's surface and penetrated its core!
For a star, this energy is nothing.
But under the precise control of the unified field, it is like a domino effect, triggering a series of subtle and exquisite chain reactions!
The entire process lasted for several months.
Finally, quantitative change led to qualitative change!
The fusion reaction inside the star intensifies, and powerful gamma rays are released!
boom!
The once tranquil star suddenly unleashed unprecedented power!
It sprayed out an incredibly powerful burst of gamma rays, just like it sneezed!
Like a surging tide, this burst of gamma rays swept across the entire star system!
It surged past the planets with an unstoppable momentum.
If there is still life on these stars, then, barring unforeseen circumstances, all of that life will perish in this stellar crisis.
Just like the solar system back then.
But this is the living environment that the Nus civilization has always dreamed of!
Once all the test data met the standards, the seeds and small individuals of the Nus civilization were transported to HIPf.
At the same time, the massive core of the Italian network was placed in a suitable location to ensure that it could enjoy the maximum amount of gamma rays.
As for the companion race of the Nus civilization, the Lost Giant Insects, they were naturally also placed on this planet filled with an aura of decay.
The giant insects that have undergone certain genetic modifications can decompose and digest the organic matter left behind by the previous civilization in the fastest and most efficient way, and provide the necessary nutrients for the [Nus Civilization].
The seed of life sprouted once again on HIPf.
...
The outer reaches of the HIP star system.
After years of travel, a fleet finally arrived at its destination.
"Your Majesty the Emperor."
A lizardman crewman, prostrate at Emperor Eugene's feet, said, "The fleet is about to enter the target star system. The resupply time is estimated to be around sixty years."
Emperor Eugene remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded.
Sixty years is not a long time, it's acceptable.
"Sixty years from now, the fleet will set sail for a star system five hundred light-years away!"
It repeated the command that had already been given.
Looking at the command center, which was completely silent and offered no objections, it nodded in satisfaction.
"Go, get everyone moving, we don't have much time."
"Yes, sir!" the crew member replied with his head bowed, and quickly stood up to go to his post.
A piercing alarm suddenly went off.
The flagship of the Eugene civilization also trembled violently.
"What's going on?!" Emperor Eugene roared, his scaly claws gripping the armrests of his chair. "Technicians! What happened?!"
The once peaceful command center suddenly descended into chaos.
"Category 1 contact alarm! Category 1 contact alarm!!"
Amidst the ever-echoing alarm, a piercing scream came from afar!
Emperor Eugene's heart sank.
Type 1 contact alert!
This is the most serious alarm message ever received by the Eugene civilization.
Normally, this will only be triggered when you encounter an unidentified civilization face-to-face and your own fleet is under attack!
Another violent tremor followed.
With a dizzying sensation, the equivalent gravity in the command center gradually disappeared, and a strong feeling of weightlessness instantly swept over Emperor Eugene's entire body.
We've been attacked again!
Emperor Eugene's heart sank.
They've come with ill intentions!
But it didn't panic too much.
During its reign as emperor, it experienced countless more dangerous situations.
It was just two small-scale attacks; they didn't even penetrate the warship's armor. There's nothing to panic about!
It tries its best to stabilize itself and uses anchors to keep itself on the deck.
"The method of attack has been determined!"
"High-energy laser beam attack, flagship's surface armor damaged by 12.67%!"
Another crew member reported the damage to the ship in a hurried tone: "The main damaged parts are..."
"No significant impact on the power system, no significant impact on the weapon system!"
"Where is the enemy?!"
Emperor Eugene's orange-yellow vertical pupils contracted violently. He opened his sharp beak full of fangs and hissed, "Locate the enemy's position immediately!"
Location successful!
"The enemy is directly above the fleet, fifty million kilometers away!"
The crew's voice drowned out the chaos in the command center: "Reconstructing images of the enemy ship!"
"Fleet regroup!!" Emperor Eugene commanded without hesitation, "Form defensive formation!"
"Prepare for battle!"
As soon as it finished speaking, the massive Eugene fleet sprang into action.
Countless interstellar wars have provided them with a wealth of combat experience.
In a short time, the scattered fleet gathered together, with small warships taking the lead and using their bodies as shields for the central flagship!
The power of the nuclear fusion reactor rapidly increased, and the magnetic field shield also began to operate at full power!
This war machine is adjusting itself at top speed to prepare for any upcoming attack!
