I was exposed for mining on Mars

November 8th of Blue Star Moon.

Two months have passed since Luo Xiu's speech.

Everyone under the three major civilization systems was mobilized, and some riots on Proxima b were quickly suppressed.

A large number of underground bunkers and shelters were also built underground on Blue Star and Proxima Centauri, and the elderly, weak, sick, disabled and pregnant people who were unable to participate in the war were placed in them.

Just as the United Solar System Civilization was actively preparing for war, the Ferma fleet had entered the outermost area of ​​the Alpha Centaur system.

There is already the area of ​​the first Blue Star defense line.

However, because their detection methods were too backward compared to the civilization of the cruising fleet, they did not fail to detect traces of the opponent's fleet after the opponent deliberately concealed it.

But this does not mean that Blue Star is unprepared.

A large number of microscopic particle detectors deployed in the deep space of the universe by the 'Umbrella' project detected the fleet's trajectory immediately and reported the news to the control system.

"Sir Commander, traces of Ferma's fleet have been detected at the outermost edge of the first line of defense. Do you want to attack now?"

After the control system finished speaking, it presented a vague star map in front of Luo Xiu.

Luo Xiu was signing a series of documents on scientific research projects of various institutes. When he heard this information, he immediately put down what he was doing.

"Combine the layout area of ​​the antimatter space mine with this star map."

Luo Xiu did not issue the order immediately.

"yes."

After the control system finished speaking, countless red dots that looked like mist appeared on the star map very quickly.

These red dots appear thicker in front and thinner in the image, and there are many areas with very dense red dots in other places.

These red dots represent antimatter space mines.

The Ferma fleet was heading towards a direction with the densest concentration of red dots.

When Luo Xiu saw this, a playful smile appeared on his face.

"Inform Cao Guolin of this information and prepare the Blue Star fleet for battle. However, you are not allowed to take the initiative without my order. We cannot alert the enemy yet."

After Luo Xiu finished speaking, he closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, with a smile on his face. He was imagining the Ferma fleet hitting the anti-matter space mine.

That scene must be beautiful, and the expression of the commander of the Ferma fleet must also be very exciting, right?

…

Luo Xiu didn't know that the picture in his mind was somewhat similar to the situation encountered by the Ferma fleet at this time.

But when bursts of thunderous alarms sounded on various ships of the Ferma fleet, the more than two hundred technologically upgraded super battleships at the front of the fleet had turned into fireballs.

Fermat was awakened by Qiong himself.

"Commander, we are in trouble, please make a decision now."

With a worried look on his face, Qiong recounted the situation the fleet encountered.

"What, the enemy can actually deploy bombs in the deep space of space? Not even the detection system on our ship detects it? And one bomb can destroy one of our warships?"

Fermat almost lost his temper when he heard the news.

"Sir Commander, as we speak in this world, our fleet is suffering losses. Please make a decision, whether to exit the super-acceleration state urgently or rush over regardless of the cost."

Qiong's face became even more ugly.

Although the sound of the explosion outside could not be heard, the flames soaring into the sky had already reflected the plexiglass on both sides red.

Whether to exit the hyper-acceleration state in an emergency or rush over, although this seems to be a simple decision, it is just a trade-off. No matter which decision is made, there will be a huge price behind it.

Emergency exit from the hyper-acceleration state will not only cause considerable losses to all ships, but also cause great harm to the dormant crew members. It is very likely that some crew members will never wake up again.

This won't happen if you charge them directly, but the power of the opponent's bombs is too great. If the opponent deploys a sufficient number, it is very likely that they will not have more than 15,000 warships left in the end. No matter how much you bet, the battle will be lost before it is even fought.

Fermat's face was uncertain. He didn't expect that the other party would directly give him a blow.

It seems that their movements have been monitored by the other party.

At this moment, Ferma suddenly felt like a clown. I was afraid that this was really a trap by the Speaker of the Ascended Parliament, and he just wanted to use the hands of this solar system civilization to eliminate their traitor.

"Lord Commander," Qiong urged.

She also knew that this decision was very difficult, but only Ferma, the fleet commander and the speaker of Kasa Cook, could bear this responsibility.

"Emergency exit from hyper-acceleration state."

Fermat waved his hand and said this sentence almost through his teeth. His face looked as if he had suffered a serious illness, with no color at all.

"yes!"

Qiong immediately issued an order to the control system, which then issued an order to all ships in the fleet.

Kasa Cook's more than 10,000 warships performed an emergency brake.

However, entering the super-accelerated state requires a long time to buffer, and it is not easy to exit this state.

Not to mention that this is a super fleet with more than 10,000 ships.

It took two full days for the Ferma fleet to finally exit the super-acceleration state.

However, they also lost nearly a thousand battleships.

But this is not what makes Fermat the most heartbroken.

Due to the emergency 'brake', all ships in the fleet suffered varying degrees of losses.

If they hadn't carried out technical upgrades before, I'm afraid this battle wouldn't have been fought.

And because of this 'brake', one-fifth of the dormant Kasaku people died.

Before the war even started, a large number of warships and nearly one-fifth of the clan members were lost.

Faced with this situation, Fermat, who was just a data stream, was also very angry.

All the senior officials of Kasa Cook came to the flagship, including a member of the House of Representatives. After entering the conference room, they looked at Ferma with somewhat unkind expressions.

If it hadn't been for a state of war at this time, they might have prosecuted him for 'treason' and 'murder'.

Of course, they dare not do this now.

Fermat also knows this. As long as the power and fleet are still in his hands, and as long as they are still fighting, then he will be fine, but this does not mean that he does not have to atone or take responsibility.

"Everyone, I know that the decision I made caused the death of many tribesmen, but their deaths should be attributed to the cunning enemy and the speaker of the Ascended Assembly of the Cruising Fleet who sent this information."

"But although we may have fallen into a trap, we have no way out now. We must first occupy the planet of the Proxima b civilization, then seize the opponent's jump device, and then eliminate the civilization hidden in the solar system."

Fermat shouted to the crowd.

"Commander, we all respect your decision, but as you can see now, the morale of our people is very low, and the fleet also needs to be repaired, and there is that kind of bomb. If we don't study it clearly, I'm afraid what happened today will It will still happen.”

Austin bowed to Ferma first, and then said seriously.

Fermat nodded, then looked at Qiong.

Qiong waved his hand, and a picture appeared in front of everyone.

"This is a bomb we found at the expense of ten battleships. This is the last picture returned by a detector on the battleship."

On the screen is a black object as big as a helmet, which blends perfectly with the background of the universe.

All kinds of light do not reflect when shining on it, just like a black hole.

"Is it just the picture? This information has no value at all."

"It's hard to imagine that only such a big bomb can destroy our super battleship."

"This should be a technology that we have not mastered. Isn't the other party just a primitive civilization? How can it be a primitive civilization with this kind of weapon technology?"

The surrounding Kasakuk members began to discuss.

Fermat paused for a while, but did not hear any useful suggestions at all. In the end, he could only wave his hand to let everyone stop this meaningless discussion.

"There are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that the speaker of the Ascended Council deceived us. The other party is not a primitive civilization at all. He just wants to use the hands of this civilization to eliminate those of us who betrayed him. Don't forget Well, the Kasakuk civilization was just his vassal civilization before."

Everyone fell silent when they heard Ferma's words. They were still taking chances, thinking that even if the speaker of the Ascended Council deceived them, they would be fine if they were careful and came over to take a look.

But now they have suffered heavy losses before seeing the other side's fleet, so at this time they also very much agree with Fermat's statement.

"Of course, there is another possibility, that is, this United Solar System Civilization is indeed just a primitive civilization, and the Speaker of the Ascended Council did not deceive us, but they have anti-matter weapons in their hands, and this kind of bomb is what the other party used during this period. A new anti-matter bomb developed within."

"Antimatter bomb? This is indeed very possible."

"If you put it this way, it is true that only anti-matter weapons can have this power."

"But even if this is true, what change will it make to our current situation? I'm afraid we would be unbearable if we had to eliminate the bombs along the way, not to mention what if our bomb disposal speed is not as fast as the opponent's manufacturing speed? manage?"

After hearing Ferma's speculation, the congressmen began to discuss it again.

For Fermat, it is indeed too difficult for these people who only know how to talk about the military situation to discuss the military situation. However, they were originally here to "raise troops to prosecute", and what he is doing now is just shirk responsibility and let Fermat They just believed in him.

Therefore, Fermat did not place his hopes on these people.

"Okay, these are my guesses. If the other party is really just a primitive civilization, then even if they have the technology to develop anti-matter weapons, I'm afraid there are other technical bottlenecks. That is to say, the speed at which they can produce such bombs will not Come on, we are so close to each other now, there is nothing we can do to give up."

Fermat made the final decision.

The congressmen looked at each other, and finally could only nod, and left the room one after another under Fermat's gaze.

Fermat breathed a sigh of relief after the others left.

"Thank you for your hard work, Commander."

Fermat's assistant came over from the side and said.

"Huh, if it weren't for the future of the Kasakuk civilization, I really don't want to be the speaker. I have been a member of the Mechanical Ascension for a long time. It has been too long since I have interacted with the tribesmen like this."

Ferma sat down, then waved his hand, and the star map around the fleet appeared in front of him.

They were not far from Proxima b, but because of the antimatter bomb, they did not dare to move forward rashly at this moment.

"It seems that the other party already knows our movements, but that doesn't matter. The most important thing now is to crack the technology of this bomb so that we can move forward." Ferma said in a deep voice.

Qiong nodded, and then said: "But in the Cygnus civilization's technology library, the research on anti-matter weapons is almost only basic. Unless we can capture a large number of such bombs for reverse research, it will not be possible to crack them in a short time. .”

"But I'm afraid a lot of ships will be lost this way. Now the people in the clan are in panic. I'm worried..."

Qiong only said half of what he said, but the meaning was already obvious.

This time, these congressmen did not attack Fermat. That was because they had entered a state of war and Fermat had great power.

But once something happens again, I am afraid that Fermat's prestige will be shaken. It is unclear whether these guys who only understand politics will take the future of the Kasakuk civilization into account and attack Fermat.

Ferma snorted coldly and said: "At this point, we can only show our cards. Order the Guards to control all the members and let the most seriously damaged ships take on the research tasks. No matter how big the damage is, The technology of this kind of anti-matter weapon must be cracked, otherwise we have no hope of winning this war."

Qiong sighed softly, and she saw a look of determination in Ferma's eyes.

She had some thoughts in her mind, but she didn't say them out at the moment.

Will that deeply hidden civilization in the solar system really give them time to crack the technology of antimatter weapons?

"Yes, Commander, I will obey your orders."

After saying that, Qiong also went down directly.

Fermat was left alone, still sitting in the conference room staring at the star map in front of him.

On the star map, Proxima Centauri and Ferma's fleet were already looking at each other from a distance, but Ferma's sight seemed to be looking for something.

"Where will that space jump device be? If we can really find and control that jump device, we can completely separate that solar system civilization from Proxima b, so that they can no longer support each other, and then we can defeat them one by one. ”

Thinking of this, Ferma's expression became serious.

"The war has finally begun."
