Crisis.
This was yet another huge crisis.
If she did not respond appropriately, Mu Yunhua's previous accumulation and efforts would all be for naught.
The Selains who had already surrendered and were willing to live as slaves would also join the rebel camp and ignite the flames of revenge against the humans.
With a total population of no more than three billion people in the All-Stars Federation, it would be difficult to resist the Selains, who outnumbered them by hundreds of times, and the more powerful mysterious higher civilization. Even the hundreds of A-class warships that Chen Jin supported/rented would be difficult to resist.
If Chen Jin did not increase his support and provide more help, the probability of the All-Stars Federation winning was undoubtedly zero.
Mu Yunhua could not see any hope of winning on her own. She could only rely on Jin out of habit.
"If Jin is willing to help, we can definitely get through this crisis!" Mu Yunhua said with a trembling voice.
…
After listening to Mu Yunhua's introduction of the situation.
Chen Jin maintained a calm and unperturbed look, as if he was not worried at all … even if the mysterious opponent had more than 100,000 advanced warships.
"Don't panic!"
He said, "The enemy has come at the right time. Otherwise, you would always want to come back and take a look."
There were many civilizations in this universe. In the Milky Way alone, it was estimated that there were at least thousands of civilizations.
Some of them were relatively weak, but there were also some that belonged to advanced civilizations with developed civilizations and advanced technology … Their numbers were estimated to be in the hundreds.
Even so, the human forces led by Mu Yunhua did not seem to be very lucky.
First, they were plotted against by the Selains, who had extremely high potential, to the brink of destruction.
It took them decades to finally conquer the Selains and survive in the cracks between the two sides.
But they did not expect that after a few comfortable days, a new challenge would sweep over them.
"Tell me, what support do you want me to provide so that you have the confidence to withstand this wave of attack?"
Chen Jin asked directly. He preferred to have an intuitive parameter indicator and then immediately complete it.
"The enemy is very powerful!"
Mu Yunhua first introduced the rough situation of their opponents. "They come from a force called the Lanyi Civilization. The size of their territory is unknown, and so is the number of their population. However, the main battleship they control is definitely an A-class battleship. It is also equipped with superluminal curvature engines, antimatter bombs, gravity bombs, and the more commonly used force field technology."
"The average combat ability of one of their Class A warships is about sixty percent of the Silver Gun Lord's. Their maximum speed is only one fifth of ours, which is twenty times the speed of light, or even lower. In terms of equipment, one of our Class A warships can easily block three Class S warships. In a battle, one shot from the main cannon is enough to shatter the shield and pierce through the body of their interstellar warships.
"But … no matter how good the quality is, in a situation where the generation difference isn't too great, sometimes it's hard to resist a huge number."
"However, our warships have an obvious advantage in terms of speed. Our maximum speed can reach a hundred times the speed of light, and our mobility is five times that of theirs."
"So …"
Mu Yunhua thought about it carefully and gave a precise number. "If you can give me 10,000 A-class warships, we will have a greater chance of driving the enemy out."
Pfft ~
Chen Jin almost choked.
One … Ten thousand Class A warships. He only produced a total of 50 Class A warships a year, and she asked for 10,000 of them.
"Cough, cough ~"
Chen Jin coughed a little awkwardly and said helplessly, "Your request is a bit exaggerated. I can't meet 10,000 ships in the short term."
"Then can you lend me the S-class warships?"
As if she had expected it, Mu Yunhua changed her plan. "The power of an S-class warship exceeds that of an A-class warship by ten times. As long as you lend me 100 S-class warships, together with a small number of A-class warships, I am confident that I can defeat the fleets sent by the advanced civilizations one by one."
Pfft ~
Chen Jin's reaction was even more intense this time. 100 S-class warships? This thing could only be built once every ten years, and she just asked for 100 of them.
He began to regret it a little. He should not have bragged so much in front of Mu Yunhua before. Now, retribution had come.
But on the surface, he still said casually, "Oh, I see. However, the quantity of your request is a bit exaggerated. I can't agree to it right away. How about this? Wait for me for a day or two. I have to discuss it with my compatriots before I give you a reply."
"Okay, I hope you can pay me as soon as possible."
Mu Yunhua said.
…
After the communication ended.
The projections of the artificial intelligence Nuwa and Alice appeared in front of Chen Jin.
"Tell me, how should we solve this?"
"Master, I judge that the situation should not be as serious as Mu Yunhua said."
Alice was the first to speak. "The A-class warship sent by the mysterious advanced civilization that invaded the All-Stars Federation is equivalent to our warships of the same class. It should be a simplified version with low performance.
"Its mobility is only one-fifth of ours, its defense is only one-third, and its attack power is probably slightly weaker … Its overall combat power should be 0.33 of the Silver Gun Lord class. One of our advanced versions should be equivalent to three of their warships.
"Taking into account the advantage of five times the mobility, we don't actually need to provide 10,000 A-class warships. Providing five or six thousand is basically enough.
"However, the production of our Silver Gun Lord class is low, and the process is complicated. Even if we start production at full capacity, we can only build about 100 ships a year at most. It will take 50 years to complete the production task."
But it was obvious that Mu Yunhua could not wait for 50 years. She could only support them for five years at most.
"What should we do?"
Chen Jin frowned. He had boasted too much previously, but in the end, he could not do it. That would be a great disgrace.
He murmured, "Do we have to admit that we can't do it, that the support we can give is limited, and that they still have to rely on themselves?"
How could this be?
"Master, I have a few ways to compromise," Nuwa said.
"Speak quickly."
"It's very simple. That is to adjust the production line. We will no longer strive for perfection, and mass produce those 'simplified versions' of A-class warships."
Nuwa said, "I have calculated that if we give up the layer of strong material on the surface of the warship and only lay a layer of force field alloy, coupled with a weakened version of the protective shield, the defensive power will be reduced to half of the original. The power system will no longer use the most advanced technology, which is one or two generations behind. It will be fine as long as the power is sufficient. As for the curvature engine, I also have a way to create a curvature engine with a maximum speed of 30 times the speed of light while reducing the cost by half.
"As for weapons and equipment, except for the main particle cannon at the bow of the ship, whose power will be reduced by half, nothing else will change.
"After some adjustments, we can reduce the cost of building a ship by more than half, and the production efficiency will increase by three times."
That is to produce 300 simplified versions of A-class warships every year.
"I know that even so, the output is still far from enough, but the All-Stars Federation should also play a certain role instead of relying on us for everything."
"So I have designed a simplified A-class warship on the basis of a simplified version, which is to modify B-class warships. The All-Stars Federation has the ability to produce B-class warships, and they also have a lot of warships in reserve. So, we will send the modification plan to them, and we will use cargo spaceships to transport the curvature engine and the protective shield device over."
"As long as the B-class warships are equipped with the curvature engine and the protective shield generator that we produce, a beggar version of A-class warship will be produced."
"Of course, the combat power of this modified A-class warship is very weak, but as long as the number is large, coupled with our antimatter missiles, gravity bombs, and other offensive weapons, it should not be a problem to compete with the A-class warship of the Lanyi civilization and strike a similar exchange ratio."
"As for the production capacity, as long as there are enough B-class warships, it should be able to reach a thousand per year."
Add up several ways.
If they entered a state of full mobilization, under optimistic circumstances, they could obtain 1,300 A-class warships of various configurations every year.
"But … it's still not enough."
Chen Jin shook his head. If it was a low-spec version of A-class warship, they would need at least 10,000 to barely be able to resist the enemy, but there was not enough time.
"Master, I have a better plan," Alice interrupted.
"Speak." Chen Jin looked at her.
"A-class warships against A-class warships is just a low-level war of resource consumption. In a situation where the total productivity and total resources are far inferior to the opponent, this kind of war is not very wise, and the possibility of failure is very high."
"You mean …" Chen Jin somewhat understood what she meant.
"Master!"
Nuwa suddenly reminded, "Right now, we have a total of three S-class warships in our hands. They are our trump cards. No matter what happens, we must keep one with us. Right now, we can only rent out two."
"In addition, building an S-class warship requires a lot of minerals and minerals from the Heavenly Realm brought from Earth, but the Heavenly Realm has basically become chaotic, and it is very difficult to get any more minerals. Of course, the planets in the universe on Earth will produce some special minerals under the catalysis of celestial particles, but that process will take thousands of years … In short, we do not have enough resources to build an S-class warship."
Of course, some high-level materials were not absolutely necessary, and it was not that there were no substitutes. If they followed the low-spec line of thinking, they could still build an S-class warship here … but it would still be one ship every ten years.
Chen Jin suddenly fell silent.
The problem … seemed to be a little unsolvable.
No matter how much he racked his brains, he could not think of a good way to deal with the 100,000 A-class warships.
Silence.
They were all silent for a long time.
Suddenly!
Nuwa had a flash of inspiration and said, "Master, I have thought of a new plan, maybe there is a way to get out of this predicament."
Chen Jin quickly asked, "What plan? Tell me quickly."
"Build an SS-class interstellar warship! On the battlefield, we can achieve one against a thousand and destroy the entire fleet. "
"An SS-class starship?"
Chen Jin was dumbfounded. "We even build one S-class warship every ten years. Do we still have the technical strength to build an SS-class starship?"
"We do, Master."
Nuwa looked confident. "This plan is related to your previous plan of 'transforming chaos crystals into spirit stones.' That is, on the basis of building the 1 trillion megawatt nuclear reactor, with this reactor as the core, we will build an SS-class warship."
She projected a set of design drawings and kept introducing them.
"The length of this SS-class warship is about 100 kilometers. It is the largest warship we have ever built …
"A nuclear reactor of one trillion megawatts can produce enough energy to maintain all the needs of a planet. Using this energy to power the curvature engine, the large protective shield, and the high-power particle cannon at the head of the warship should be enough."
"If we load more antimatter missiles and gravity bombs, combined with its huge size, the basic combat power will be at least ten times that of an S-class warship.
"However, its strongest combat power is that after the chaos crystals are split, the celestial particles with different natures can exert extremely unique attack effects.
"For example, the collected spiritual particles, after being stimulated, can travel at more than a hundred times the speed of light, and can hit distant enemies in an instant. Moreover, after the psionic particles penetrate into the atomic structure, they will reduce the speed of the fusion reaction, which may cause the enemy's nuclear weapons to fail and the nuclear reactor's power to decline.
"Another example is the collected nether particles. After being stimulated, their speed is also 70 to 80 times the speed of light, and they can hit their target in an instant. Moreover, this kind of particle has a strong 'cooling' attribute. The low-temperature field it produces can drop the temperature of objects to minus one or two hundred degrees, or even close to absolute zero … Such a low temperature is enough to damage some of the instruments and equipment in the spacecraft that cannot withstand low temperatures, causing the lubrication system to freeze … The destructive power cannot be underestimated.
"After breaking down the chaos crystals, each celestial particle collected corresponds to a method of attack.
"Most importantly, the celestial particles carry a special 'spiritual field,' which will not be limited by gravity, magnetic, or electric fields. Therefore, the protective shield released by the enemy's warship cannot withstand the impact of the celestial particles at all. It can be said that it is an attack that ignores any protection.
Unless … the opponent could also manipulate the celestial particles, but obviously, this was not possible.
Therefore, there were more than a dozen methods of attack that could not be resisted. The SS warship designed by Nuwa could be said to be the existence of the battlefield's terminator.
"Good, good!"
Chen Jin rubbed his palms, his face full of excitement. "This idea is so wonderful. It actually turned the original decomposition reactor into an SS warship. Genius, this is simply genius!"
"But there are also hidden dangers, master."
"What hidden dangers?"
"Pollution. This will cause pollution. Every time this SS warship releases a special attack, it will cause a certain amount of pollution to the universe. It must not be used too frequently."
"This is unavoidable." Chen Jin nodded. "This is a double-edged sword. It has great destructive power, but it also has certain disadvantages. A perfect and flawless weapon system does not exist."
"Do it, Nuwa! Build this SS warship as quickly as possible. "
"Yes, master!"
…
The next morning.
Chen Jin took the initiative to contact Mu Yunhua and gave his reply. "I can't meet the requirements you mentioned yesterday. I can only give you two S-class warships. I still have 200 A-class warships left … I can send them to you right away."
"Coupled with the 300 A-class warships you have on hand, you have a total of 502 advanced warships. I believe it will not be too much of a problem to stop a fleet of 1,000 warships from the Lanyi civilization."
"Then, I can also provide you with some advanced technical information and dispatch cargo spaceships to send you the core components of the curvature engine and the protective shield generator. You can assemble a batch of A-class warships on your own."
"Yunhua, I am not your nanny. I can only provide so much help on this battlefield. The biggest difficulties are still for you to overcome by yourself."
"Of course, I will not be so cruel as to abandon you. Ten years, I will give you ten years. After ten years, if the Lanyi civilization still cannot defeat you, then I will help you and completely destroy the Lanyi civilization."
"Yunhua, this is a test. I hope you can give a wonderful performance!"
Ah ~
Mu Yunhua was a little stunned. A test. Then she panicked a little. Don't be like this, Jin. This test is very dangerous. It's better to just ride on your coattails.
Chen Jin did not pay attention to her anymore.
