Chapter 288 Vacuum Zero Point Reactor (4000)

In two years, Luo An built a defense system at the No. 19 stronghold, and the new space fortress and force field generator have been completed.

During this period, the enemy was not unaware of it, but the enemy also had reconnaissance ships coming and going.

"The No. 19 stronghold is stationed in the fleet again?" Fu Long, the commander under Yunxiao Hou, noticed this phenomenon.

"Sir, this fleet is not like the Ptolemy civilization's fleet. Their ships are lower-level, and they are all fourth-level superspace warships."

"You mean, this is the fleet of the Blue Star Civilization?" Fu Long asked.

"Maybe, our intelligence shows that this fleet is not in strong contact with the Ptolemy civilization's fleet. The No. 19 stronghold had been abandoned by them before, and now it is probably thrown to the Blue Star Civilization defense." The subordinate analyzed.

"A mere third-level civilization wants to trek into the muddy water here?" Fu Long learned about the situation and snorted coldly: "Send a fleet to wipe them out!"

"yes!"

They immediately dispatched troops and asked a super-space fleet to head to the No. 19 stronghold.

Outside the 19 stronghold, hyperspace fluctuations appeared, and a fleet jumped quickly.

Their jumps were almost instantaneous, and even the hyperspace jammers failed to work.

"Warning, enemy attack! Warning, enemy attack!" The space outpost warned.

"Here you come!" Luo An immediately arranged the fleet to fight.

The information of the enemy fleet was also known by the reconnaissance. According to the analysis of energy radiation and hyperspace fluctuations, the lowest level of these warships are all level seven superspace warships, and level eight superspace warships exist!

Luo An also contacted Carmen, the commander of the Ptolemy civilization, and asked him to mobilize the fleet to assist in defense.

The war has begun.

Before the weapons of the Blue Star Civilized fleet reached the opponent, a large number of weapons, various gravity bombs, kinetic energy weapons and gravitational wave weapons appeared in front of them.

These weapons seemed to appear in front of the warship in an instant, and the fleet of the Blue Star Civilization was blocked from the stronghold before it was dispatched.

"Defense, defend with all your might!" Although the captains were mentally prepared, they did not expect that they were blocked by various weapons before they even left the "home".

"Can you attack?" He Xingzhou was also paying attention to the war here, and he asked.

"There is no way to attack." Luo An said, "The opponent is using a hyperspace weapon to attack us instantly."

"Under the interference of the gravitational field, we could not even launch weapons. If we had not built defense facilities, we would have been severely damaged in the first round."

"Now, we can only attack hidden warships arranged in advance outside the stronghold. If the battle stars are deployed, they should be able to fight."

"Try your best to defend first and collect enemy intelligence. If you really can't stop it, retreat! Wait until the Ptolemy civilization staff arrive before attacking." He Xingzhou reminded. Now he did not expect the Blue Star Civilization Fleet to be able to beat the opponents. Now let them accumulate experience and collect scientific and technological information of level 4 civilizations.

"Received!" Luo An ordered, "Give full defense and protect the warships as the first goal."

"Received!" The ships began to execute. Although they could not fight, it was impossible for the enemy to quickly destroy them.

They delayed for a while, and the Ptolemy civilization's support fleet also jumped through hyperspace jumps and attacked the enemy.

"Support is coming, we will dispatch the battle stars!" Luo An shouted.

The destroyed and rebuilt Golden Battle Star went to battle, and it rushed out of the stronghold directly with the enemy's firepower.

"What a powerful war star!" Carmen was envious when he saw the war star. Although the Ptolemy civilization was a level 4 civilization, it did not create a war star.

Because their interstellar construction capabilities are not too high.

"Is this the war star? The defense is indeed amazing!" Fu Long was also observing, "But its maneuverability is still much weaker than that of us. As long as we are not trapped by the gravitational field, it cannot reach us at all!"

Their warships are moving or jumping quickly, adjusting their orientation to attack.

Jin Zhanxing cannot lock in his attack target.

"The support of the Ptolemy civilization is here, withdraw." Fu Long has confirmed that this is the fleet of the Blue Star civilization, and the information has been mastered, so there is no need to continue to fight.

They retreated directly and used hyperspace jumps to jump away. The Ptolemy civilization's fleet locked the other party's position and conducted jump tracking. They sent the coordinates to Luo An, and the Blue Star Civilization's fleet also conducted jump tracking.

Jump once, but didn't chase the enemy.

The Ptolemy civilization's fleet continued to jump, but the Blue Star civilization's warship had to return.

Because an embarrassing thing happened, the warship lacked energy, and the hyperspace jump consumed huge energy. If you jump twice like this, the warship would be "out of oil".

Seeing that the Blue Star Civilized Fleet no longer followed, Carmen ordered a retreat.

There was no loss in the first collision between the two sides, but the Blue Star civilization has exposed its shortcomings in its strength.

...

Five years have passed.

Not only was the Blue Star Civilization Fleet attacked in the M34 Star Cluster, but also the same was true in the M97 Star Cluster. The Blue Star Civilization Fleet was repelled many times, losing more than a dozen hyperspace warships, and also losing strongholds twice.

The record is very ugly and has never won.

So much so that the Fox Hunting King Court has never sent the main fleet to fight against them, otherwise they can be solved in one go.

"If there weren't war stars, our fleet would have been destroyed long ago." He Hongwei sighed, "The gap is too big!"

"Yeah." He Xingzhou said, "I almost understand."

"The difference between us and our enemies is mainly two points."

"The first point is that the enemy has hyperspace weapons, but we don't, so we can only be passively beaten!"

"The second point is that the enemy's hyperspace warship's jump is more stable, the transition distance is longer, and the endurance is stronger, and it can make multiple jumps."

"Our warships need to consume 70% or 80% of the energy when they jump two or three times. The enemy also knows this, so many jumps in battle with us to consume our energy, which also leads to us being passively beaten!"

"That's it. Is there a way for the Ministry of Science to solve it?" He Hongwei asked.

"Give us some more time and we're already thinking of a solution." He Xingzhou said, "Continue to maintain a defensive posture until our new technology has made a breakthrough."

...

After the tests over the past few years, He Xingzhou not only did not feel afraid of the Hunter Royal Court, but instead felt that the other party was not as powerful as he imagined.

The weapons they use, in addition to having hyperspace transition capabilities, are similar to those of Blue Star Civilized Weapons.

"Then it's enough to consider one problem. To increase the reactor energy, it can improve the battery life and create a small one-time hyperspace transition engine for use in weapons." He Xingzhou believes that all the problems they are currently facing indicate that the energy output of the antimatter reactor is no longer enough!

"The enemy's warships can jump multiple times and can retain a lot of energy for combat. They definitely don't use antimatter reactors, otherwise where can they store so much antimatter on the warships?" He Xingzhou thought, there was only one possibility that the enemy used more advanced energy technology.

He opened the quantum optical brain and had found the answer.

"Vacuum Zero Reactor!"

The so-called vacuum zero-point reactor is a reactor that directly draws energy from the vacuum and supplies energy to weapons and equipment.

This sounds fantastic, but it is a very scientific thing.

A vacuum is not a system that consists of a rotating wave packet of positrons and negative electrons. The energy associated with this phenomenon is called zero-point energy, that is, even at absolute zero degrees, this vacuum activity remains.

Dirac described the vacuum state from the quantum field theory, and compared the vacuum to a undulating sea of ​​energy.

The vacuum zero-point reactor draws energy from the "sea of ​​energy" of the vacuum!

This is a kind of dynamic energy. Compared with nuclear reactors and antimatter reactors, its biggest advantage is that it can be absorbed at any time!

No nuclear fuel is needed, no antimatter is needed, and the warship can draw energy from wherever it drives!

As long as there is a vacuum, the warship can continue to drive.

On the surface, this looks a bit like a "permanent motion machine", but in fact it is not.

After the energy of the main and secondary electrons in the vacuum are absorbed, the vacuum will collapse. The image is understood as the reactor consumes "space" to provide energy for itself.

If it is in a fixed space, doing so will reduce the space volume, which is not conducive to long-term development. But they are in an expanding universe, and the shrinking space is completely worth mentioning compared to the expanded universe space.

"Consumption of one hundred energy points and unlocking vacuum zero-point reactor technology." He Xingzhou unlocked this technology and began to research.

As long as the vacuum zero-point reactor is conquered, their hyperspace warships can break through level 5 and meet the standards of Galaxy-class warships.

At that time, warships could repeatedly conduct hyperspace jumps and battles, and conquer hyperspace weapons was no problem.

The Blue Star civilization was even promoted to level 4 civilization, which is of great significance!

He Xingzhou's research has begun.

...

The war between the M34 and M97 clusters continues.

Although the Blue Star Civilization Coordinated Defense Fleet has been defeated for decades, it has not suffered much loss.

As the enemy fully understands their weaknesses, the war becomes more and more difficult, and each loss of war increases.

Even the two battle stars were almost blown up and sent back for repair twice!

The Ptolemy civilization and the Ye Xiao civilization did not have the energy to take care of them. They themselves were trapped in the quagmire of hard fighting, and the defense lines around the star cluster were eroded step by step.

The Ye Xiao civilization is even worse than the Ptolemy civilization, and their external space has been blocked half!

Qingfeng Hou and Mingyue Hou have arranged a large number of hyperspace detectors and jammers on the periphery of the M97 star cluster, so that the Ye Xiao Civilization needs to be extremely careful if it wants to communicate with other civilizations or replace resources. If it is discovered and destroyed, they will be injured once!

Many members of the Star Trade Group realized that something was wrong and began to voluntarily surrender to the Osman Royal Court.

The power of the Star Trade Group is weakening every day!
