Chapter 315 The dark spaceship

After learning the news, many people have arrived one after another, including some communications personnel, government personnel and military personnel. Soon, Zhang Yuan brought these people to the large conference room next door, and the discussion sounds were as lively as the vegetable market.

People were excited that they encountered an alien civilization that also used cosmic strings to navigate so quickly.

It has been 39 years, which is a relatively long time for humans, but it is only a drop in the ocean in the universe.

What humans are worried about is whether the other party has discovered the Kunlun Mountain. Since a laser light hits the human eye, there is a high probability that more laser light will shine on other parts. Even if there are some sensitive sensors on the surface of the spacecraft, if the laser does not hit these sensors, the other party is still in a state of ignorance.

But humans don’t know the other party’s location yet. This kind of disrespect for information brings great security risks!

"Even if the other party launches an attack, we don't know!"

Zhang Yuan frowned and said seriously: "The situation is very delicate now. Kunlun Mountain is likely to have been exposed, but we don't know the other party's location. Five minutes ago, I ordered to use a low-power laser to explore which direction, but I did not find the so-called alien spacecraft..."

"It may be because the distance is too far, and we have to search for a long time to find it."

The speed of light propagation in the universe is limited. In 5 minutes, 300 seconds, one round or another, that is, within 150 light seconds, people did not discover that alien spacecraft.

Colonel Guo, the military commander of the fleet, added: "But there may be some other reasons... If the opponent's spacecraft has a rough appearance and a special coating, it is possible to absorb these lasers."

"Oh, by the way, in fact, there is such a coating in some areas on the surface of Kunlun Mountain... but it is still quite difficult to fully absorb it."

When he said this, Zhang Yuan suddenly thought of something and said more seriously: "No, Kunlun Mountain is not likely to have been exposed. There is more than 99% possibility of Kunlun Mountain being exposed!"

"Don't forget, we are sailing at 10% of the speed of light! At such a high speed, even if it is just a small number of particles in the universe, it is enough to draw a relatively obvious infrared radiation from Kunlun Mountain. No wonder the other party can find Kunlun Mountain so far away, and also launch a searchlight laser..."

This is also a point I paid great attention to when designing "Kunlun Mountain", because for such a fast spacecraft, the thin particles in the universe are already something worth paying attention to.

Therefore, the shape of the first half of the entire spacecraft is designed to be very beautiful and streamlined, with a certain coating and a small amount of magnetic field protection on the collision surface. This is not for the sake of beauty, but with certain dynamic principles.

Just like an airplane navigating in the air, a streamlined spacecraft has a small collision area, which is still easier to use than a spherical one.

This speculation quickly made everyone even more nervous.

"So, can we observe the other party in this way? If the other party also sails at such a speed."

As a result, according to astronomers' infrared observations, there is nothing, nothing!

The news was even more shocking, and some people even doubted whether the girl was talking nonsense. Or... there was no so-called alien spacecraft at all.

"Or some other reason, such as the other party is in a static state, or using some technology that humans do not understand, to avoid this infrared radiation..."

"I don't think there is any need to discuss so much. You can directly detonate a large flash bomb!" Just when you were at a loss, Li Zhendong, who was sitting below, suddenly stood up.

"If there is no alien spacecraft, it will detonate, and it will not matter much. If an alien civilization is here, even if it loses some etiquette, we must find them out, must, quickly!"

"Safety is the most important!"

Zhang Yuan glanced at him and quickly made up his mind. Yes, instead of tangling, discussing, and wasting time here, it would be better to act immediately!

It's just a flash bullet, so what if the other party misunderstood?

Could it be that just because of this, the war will start directly?

If war really starts because of this, then war will begin sooner or later in the face of this civilization.

With a command, a giant flash bomb was launched rapidly, and a blooming white flame exploded in the dim universe.

One hour, two hours, three hours... The speed of light propagation in the universe is quite limited, and information is delayed, so it is impossible to see clearly the surrounding situation at once.

So people can only wait quietly and nervously. All the reconnaissance instruments have been opened in all directions, and everyone's eyes are wide and they can see more clearly if they have a wider eyeball.

Seven hours later, everyone was stunned. A... dark spacecraft appeared about 3.2 billion kilometers ahead of the side!

3.2 billion kilometers, even at the speed of light, it will take more than 10,000 seconds.

The spacecraft is about 3.5 kilometers long and is pitch black, like a piece of black charcoal. Its size is much smaller than that of Kunlun Mountain. Its navigation speed is not fast, about 30 kilometers per second, so it does not collide with particles in the universe, forming obvious infrared radiation.

Zhang Yuan rubbed his temples and breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he had found it completely, there was no need to worry too much. Attack is always simpler than defense. There is a complete fleet of Kunlun Mountain.

"As a natural highway in the universe, the cosmic string can encounter interstellar civilization with a higher probability, but I didn't expect to meet one now."

The two sides have a distance of 3.2 billion kilometers, and even if the light-speed weapon strikes, it will have a delay of more than 10,000 seconds.

With a delay of more than 10,000 seconds, it is impossible to hit any target. It can be said to be a relatively safe distance. Except for some detecting light emitted randomly from all directions that can hit Kunlun Mountain with great luck, it is unlikely that weapon-level high-energy laser weapons will hit the target.

"From the structure of this spacecraft, it may be loaded with a ramp engine." A military expert suddenly said: "Looking at this structure, it should be in the funnel style after being unfolded, and particles in the universe can be collected using magnetic fields. This is a very effective navigation technology, and we have not mastered it... It means that the technological strength of this civilization may be higher than ours."

Interstellar ramjet engine...

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and said, "First calculate, what is the closest distance between the two sides according to their current navigation trajectory? If it is really too close, we have to turn slightly."

"Continue to turn on our microwave engine, completely illuminate this starry sky, so as to save the other party from hiding..."

The calculation results were soon out. Information expert Li Zhendong frowned and said, "In 30 hours, the distance between the fleets of both sides will be minimized. By then, the distance between the two sides will be approximately 620,000 kilometers... At this distance, laser weapons can hit the other side in two seconds!"
