Of course, if you want to fuse to the level of iron, there are also requirements.

For example, a red dwarf star with a mass of only 0.08 solar mass to 0.5 solar mass can only simmer slowly for a long time. After the hydrogen is burned out, the gravity generated by the mass is not enough to fuse helium.

Therefore, after the hydrogen is burned out, it can only cool down and become a black dwarf.

A star with a larger mass, such as a star with a mass of 0.5-3 times the sun, can ignite helium to produce carbon and oxygen to become a red giant.

But after the helium is burned out, gravity is not enough to fuse carbon and oxygen, and its final fate is a white dwarf star.

This is how our sun will end up.

If the mass is larger, a star with 3-8 times the mass of the sun can fuse carbon and oxygen.

In order for a star that has fused to iron to undergo the next step of reaction, a planet 8-30 times larger than the mass of the sun is needed.

Of course, iron cannot be fused because it is too heavy.

The huge gravitational force will cause the star to rapidly collapse, the core temperature will rise rapidly, and the gas will hit the core at a speed close to the speed of light under the influence of gravity. At that time, a famous cosmic phenomenon will occur.

It was a gamma burst caused by the collapse of iron's light, which was enough to vaporize galaxies several light years away.

Also known as - supernova explosion!!

This explosion will scatter the elements inside the star into the universe, forming nebulae. The elements after iron in the periodic table are formed through the aggregation of protons and neutrons in the hundreds of billions of degrees high temperature of this supernova explosion.

The solar system was born in the nebula formed after such a supernova explosion.

In other words, looking back to the origin, everything in this world, including human beings, originated from stars.

After a supernova explodes, the remaining mass will turn into a large number of neutrons due to the previous collapse impact, and aggregate into a high-density mass body, which is a neutron star.

The neutron star formed after the supernova explosion of a star that is one hundred times more massive than the sun will have a mass greater than 1.5-3 times the sun's mass. It will continue to collapse and eventually form a black hole.

In other words, if you want to evolve the final form estimated by Einstein—a black hole—in the imaginary number space according to normal natural laws.

Then it would have to be at least a hundred times the mass of the sun.

That is impossible, because, as far as the solar system is concerned, the sun occupies 99.86% of the mass in the solar system.

In other words, the eight major planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, trans-Neptunian objects and interstellar dust in the solar system together only account for 0.14% of the mass of the entire solar system.

It is just the fifth element possessed by an individual. To reach this level, it would be impossible even if the bones were turned into stone.

Therefore, we need to look for external forces, that is, the power of technology.

That is to artificially create gravity and increase the temperature.

But whether it is to artificially create a strong gravity like a star or to heat the temperature to hundreds of millions of degrees, it will be extremely difficult to accomplish.

Of course, it was nothing in Xia Lian's world. What we are talking about here is the use of the fifth element to achieve these requirements in the imaginary number space.

But at this moment, another road seemed to be in front of them.

The reason why nuclear fusion is difficult is that there are Coulomb forces resisting the aggregation of atomic nuclei.

But what if the Coulomb force is eliminated?

There is no Coulomb force, which means that they only need to create a little bit of gravity to promote the fusion of matter.

In fact, this is also the method used by humans in this era to create micro black holes to eliminate the Coulomb force.

They can even cause planets to explode as supernovae.

But this method of creating micro black holes is very dangerous. After all, the temperature of a supernova explosion can reach more than 100 billion degrees. No starship can withstand such an explosion.

The controllable Coulomb force elimination field in the laboratory means it is safer, and there is the possibility of applying it to the imaginary number space to build an "artificial sun".

Xia Lian looked at Mo Li and smiled.

"Do you have any particularly important relatives?"

Li Qiye shook his head, "I am a war orphan."

A glimmer of light flashed in Xia Lian's eyes.

"So, do you want to change jobs and come to Helios?"

"Are you from Helios?" Li Li asked.

"My name is Xialian Helios." Xialian said.

"The only son of the Sun King." Mo Li murmured in a low voice. Due to the different languages, people of Mo Li's language used to call Helios directly the sun, and Helios was also called the sun.

king.

"To be precise, there is only one succession ceremony left for me to become Duke Helios." Xia Liandao said, "According to the constitution, in an emergency, there is no need for a succession ceremony, and I will be the supreme leader of the Principality of Helios."

A little astonishment flashed in Li Qiye's eyes, "Xia Suo Gong..."

Xia Lian nodded, "It was done by people from the Principality of Bahram."

"It is probably due to Bahram's martial law that the news has not spread yet, but it should be within the next few days.

At the same time, the news of Duke Bahram’s death also spread.”

Xia Lian looked at Mo Li and said calmly.

"I sent him down."

Li Li was stunned for a moment. After she realized what Xia Lian said, she said in disbelief, "Are you... kidding?"

"I don't think anyone would make fun of my father's death." Xia Lian said, "Bahram's army suddenly abandoned you and evacuated when they were escorting you halfway, didn't they?

Why do you think they abandoned you?

It's because I bombed Bahram and they rushed back to defend."

Li Qiye was silent for a moment. She knew that Xia Lian had no reason to deceive him at this moment. She whispered absentmindedly: "In a short period of time, two grand dukes of the empire died abnormally. Is this the beginning of the second galactic war?"

For more than a thousand years after the victory of the Omnic Holy War, the entire human race was still one. However, due to internal conflicts and official corruption, a civil war broke out.

It started as a civil war, but eventually spread to other alien countries in the surrounding galaxy thousands of light years away. This war lasted for more than a hundred years and affected many planets. It is known in history as the First Galactic War.

After the war, that country split into the Empire, Xinghai, and some small republics, but the main political system still survived and became the New Federation. This is why there is a new word in front of the New Federation.

Xia Lian shrugged, "Who knows, Bahram is fighting Helios now, and the Yaka people joined in not long ago. I heard that people from your new federation are also coming to join in the fight.

If we add Xinghai and Atrumans, we'll almost be all set.

Now it is classified as a civil war, but if there is a slight misjudgment, it will be a full-scale war."

Li Qiye was silent and had no words.

"Is it ridiculous?"

Li Li raised his head and looked at Xia Lian with some confusion.

"Politicians kidnap the interests of the people in order to gain their own political capital. They don't have to pay any price. Even if they cause any mess, the worst they can do is step down and leave the mess to another party to solve it."

Xia Lian looked at Mo Li.

"Do you think it's funny?"

"Are you talking about the New Federation?" Li Li asked.

Xia Lian shrugged, "I didn't say that."

"You might as well speak more clearly." Mo Li said.

Xia Lian smiled but said nothing.

After a pause, she turned her head to one side and thought quietly for a moment.

"Although I led the research on the miniature Coulomb force elimination field, I did not study it alone. The main data are all in my research institute in New Federation."

"So, you agree to change jobs?" Xia Lian said with a smile.

"I don't think I can decide whether to agree or not." Li Li looked at Xia Lian and said, "If I don't agree, will you let me go?"

Xia Lian shook his head.

"This is the answer." Li Li said.

"Welcome to the Principality of Helios, Dr. Mo Li." Xia Lian smiled and gave Mo Li a gentleman's salute.

Li Qiye nodded slightly helplessly in response.

Xia Lian smiled, and then contacted Aisha who was still monitoring the Eternal Night Stars in Fenrir's main control room.

"Elsa, disengage the hook lock. We are ready to drive this ship back to the Revolutionary Army base."

"yes."

"By the way, what's the current situation of that exile team?"

Aisha looked at the screen and said.

"The projection just now obviously scared them, and they are still trembling now, thinking that the world is about to be destroyed.

Your Highness, what should we do next?”
