Of course, on top of controllable nuclear fusion, there are also more advanced energy sources such as quark fusion and the energy generated by the annihilation of matter and antimatter.

Compared with controllable nuclear fusion, where the energy conversion rate is only less than 10%, annihilation of matter and antimatter will completely convert mass into energy, that is to say, the conversion rate can reach 100%.

The annihilation energy of matter and antimatter is huge, coupled with such an astonishing conversion rate, it is a matter of course that it will replace controllable nuclear fusion in the future.

More than a hundred years later, researchers from the Migration School developed antimatter annihilation bombs. The energy they erupted was so large that it could directly cause huge damage to small stars and even directly annihilate them.

However, the research of the migration group is limited to this. After all, it is easy to use the annihilation of matter and antimatter as a weapon, but it is not so easy to apply it to the engine of the spacecraft.

The engine materials alone give migration researchers a headache.

The engines used by the current Cygnus cruising fleet are nothing more than controlled nuclear fusion.

However, in addition to the controllable nuclear fusion engine, the cruising fleet also has a black technology, which is the equipment used for interstellar jumps-the star gate.

The stargate's drive creates an absolute vacuum region that has never been seen in space by repeatedly 'compressing' the vacuum between the two polar disks, thereby excluding all elementary particles.

Then, a fixed laser field will be generated in this area to preserve the growing absolute vacuum bubble until it can accommodate the entire spacecraft.

After these complex operations, the spacecraft can quickly jump from one star gate to another, eliminating the need for a long and long flight.

At this time, the purpose of the cruising fleet squadron, which has been setting off from Cygnus for hundreds of years, is to create a star gate near the solar system, so that the cruising fleet can directly reach this 'weapon testing site' and bring the civilization in the solar system back to Cygnus.

seat.

'Stargate is a good thing.'

Luo Xiu recalled the Star Gate he had used twice before and couldn't help but sigh. The feeling of being able to control space was very wonderful.

And this black technology, Cygnus black technology has been possessed more than four thousand years ago, which is one of the reasons why they can suppress the star area from the Cygnus cantilever to the Orion cantilever.

And this technology, just like the antimatter annihilation ejection comes from the Migration Faction, the Star Gate comes from the top civilization among the 23 affiliated civilizations, which is internally transliterated as Kakusak's civilization within the Migration Faction.

However, this civilization also stagnated for thousands of years after developing the star gate. Until now, there has been no decisive technological breakthrough.

But even so, the role of the Star Gate allowed them to secure their position.

'It's a pity that this technology is only mastered by Kakusak.'

Although Luo Xiu's spaceship has all the technology of the Migration Sect, it knows very little about the technology of civilizations other than the Migration Sect.

Cygnus civilization strictly prohibits the exchange of science and technology among civilizations. If the migration faction needs the support of underlying technology, it can only be obtained through Cygnus civilization, and cannot directly ask the affiliated civilizations that possess this technology.

If Luo Xiu wants to obtain some star gate technology, the squadron that came to build the star gate this time is a very important part.

Of course, the premise is that Luo Xiu can win the contact.

However, compared to the encounter inside, the construction of Mars is what Luo Xiu needs to pay attention to.

The hydroponic farm is just Luo Xiu's personal needs, and the number and scale of its construction do not need to be large.

Compared with various hydroponic crops, the protective layer tested on the hydroponic farm is what Luo Xiu really needs. After continuous testing and improvement of this protective layer, it will eventually become a pure energy shield. This kind of

The shield can directly absorb the rays of energy weapons and convert them into its own energy.

Of course, if you want to convert the opponent's rays, you must also check whether the shield can withstand a round of enemy volleys.

If not, then when the energy cannot be transmitted immediately, the body of the spacecraft will be instantly broken down and become a speck of dust in the universe.

"Mastermind, there is no need to make all general-purpose robots in the robot production line. Let's make professional robots according to the required projects."

Luo Xiu walked out of the hydroponic farm and walked towards his residence while speaking to the base's control system.

At this time, Luo Xiu no longer had to worry about ordinary mineral resources. Of course, the manufacture of these low-level robots did not require so much care.

"Okay, Commander."

Nowadays, all construction tasks on Mars are handed over to general-purpose robots, but after all, they are only general-purpose robots. Although there are many interfaces, the shape, power, and body size of humanoid robots have many limitations.

For example, the pipeline robot is shaped like a spider and is smaller than Luo Xiu's index finger. It can swim freely in the pipeline and is responsible for the installation, monitoring and maintenance of the pipeline.

Luo Xiu's Mars construction has basically given up its previous rough style and begun to enter a refined management and operation mode.

Of course, the general-purpose robots that have been manufactured will not be wasted. After all, they can be used to build planetary belts and planetary shields on the equator.

Just a month after Luo Xiu started replacing robots, four layers of giant solar panels, both inside and outside, had been laid out on the entire equator of Mars.

Such a large amount of energy supply can basically meet the mission needs of electromagnetic railguns and planetary shields.

After a month of construction, in addition to the two guide rails, the electromagnetic railgun's huge fuselage and chassis with adjustable angle and rotation have been installed.

Although its guide rails are still being tested and have not yet been installed, its appearance has already made most people on Blue Star fearful.

If placed on Blue Star, this electromagnetic railgun with a height of more than 3,000 meters would definitely become a huge war machine, and it would be just a legend to destroy an entire city with one shot.

In addition to having no radiation, its impact and destructive power are even worse than those of nuclear bombs.

More importantly, it only fires a lump of iron.

'It's over, it's a weapon.'

On the Blue Star, when the towering electromagnetic railgun was seen through the camera of the Zhurong, the humans on the Blue Star were immediately filled with grief.

'It looks a bit like an electromagnetic gun, but its size is a bit too scary. The tallest building in Blue Star doesn't even have this cannon.'

'With one shot, Mount Everest will be flattened, right?'

'Our astronauts...'

Thinking of the Blue Star astronauts who were approaching Mars at this time, everyone watching the live broadcast of the Zhurong felt sorry for them.
