Super Battleship Reborn

Chapter 8 Radiation Source Capture Plan Hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, Jupiter, a huge monster, is quietly watching here, as chaotic as ever. In the distance, the huge ring of Jupiter is quietly running, with more than 60 satellites floating in it. Xiao Yu could not find any factors that might cause strong radiation from the Jupiter system.

If it wasn't for Xiao Yu who had intentionally strengthened the spaceship's heat insulation layer and radiation protection layer before his arrival, at this moment, it is estimated that Xiao Yu's instruments all malfunctioned due to this abnormality, and the central computer was short-circuited and died directly. .

But even so, Xiao Yu was made very uncomfortable. On the spaceship, subtle sparks have erupted in some places. If it is not dealt with in time, it may cause a larger-scale line short circuit, and it will be dangerous at that time.

Thousands of sensors scattered around the hull of the spacecraft began to collect data with all their strength. Geiger counters, magnetometers, photometers, spectrum analyzers and other detection equipment were fully activated, and countless data were transmitted to Xiao Yu's brain and began to calculate.

Almost in an instant, Xiao Yu came to a conclusion.

No redshift? No blueshift? How is this possible? Xiao Yu couldn't understand this conclusion.

If there is radiation, there must be a source of radiation. According to the Doppler effect, when the radiation source is far away, the radiation band will move to the red end, that is, the red shift, and vice versa, when it is close, there will be a blue shift. However, Xiao Yu's current observation results are that there is neither red shift nor blue shift.

This suggests that the radiation cannot come from Jupiter. Because Xiao Yu is now moving away from Jupiter, or Jupiter is moving away from Xiao Yu, if the radiation comes from Jupiter, then Xiao Yu should observe the redshift.

Then there is only one possibility, the radiation source maintains the same moving speed as Xiao Yu's spaceship, and the speed and direction remain the same. Or... the radiation source is simply on the spaceship.

Xiao Yu immediately started the next round of testing.

The radiation inside the spacecraft is dozens of times weaker than the outside of the spacecraft. The sensors on the spacecraft's outer shell detect the most radiation... Does the radiation come from outside the spacecraft, no, or is the radiation attached to the outer shell?

Xiao Yu immediately activated the optical sensor and carefully checked the outer shell of the spacecraft. However, on the outer shell of the spacecraft, there is nothing that does not belong to the original object of the spacecraft.

What the hell is going on here! Xiao Yu was very anxious. In such a situation, if delaying a little longer, a serious accident may occur, but Xiao Yu exhausted his means, but he did not notice the problem at all.

Calm down, you must calm down. Xiao Yuqiang suppressed the panic in his heart, The strong winds and waves like the Muyue collision have come over, and I don't believe that the boat will capsize in the gutter.

At this moment, the Geiger counter jumped wildly again, and another powerful radiation source was observed. The difference is that this time Xiao Yu observed a clear blue shift, which indicates that this radiation source is rapidly approaching him.

After determining the direction, Xiao Yu immediately aimed the optical detection equipment there. However, the only thing he saw was the giant Jupiter slowly rotating, and at most a few meteorites were running on their own orbits carefree, other than that. Besides, nothing else.

But the radiation was still increasing gradually, and Xiao Yu was about to curse.

What is it? What is it? Xiao Yu was depressed and couldn't figure it out. Suddenly, the spectrum analyzer showed that the blueshift of this powerful source of radiation had disappeared.

At the same time, the radiation intensity on the outer shell of the spacecraft has also doubled.

This indicates that the radiation source has stopped moving.

Could it be that another radiation source is attached to the shell of my spaceship? Xiao Yu made such a speculation, but no matter how he searched, in the visible light band, he could not find any objects that might emit radiation.

According to the current radiation intensity, two more such radiation sources,

Xiao Yu's radiation protection layer can't stand it anymore. At that time, the machinery, instruments, and circuits inside the spacecraft will be seriously damaged, even irreparably damaged.

Well? Just when Xiao Yu was anxious, he noticed another unusual fluctuation.

He felt that the intensity of the radiation source had slightly increased. It's like the radiation source is trying to get through the radiation shield, trying to get inside the spaceship.

Can this thing still have its own thinking? Could it be life? Xiao Yu was shocked, and immediately energized some circuits under the radiation protection layer. Under the action of the electromagnetic field, the feeling of being penetrated disappeared. .

The current Xiao Yu has passed the closest time to Jupiter. Now, Xiao Yu is moving away from Jupiter at a speed of fifty-eight kilometers per second.

Jupiter is too weird here. Anyway, enough observational data have been obtained. Let's run quickly and leave the danger first. Xiao Yu made up his mind and accelerated for another ten seconds, consuming several tons of fuel and reducing the speed Accelerated to 63 kilometers per second.

However, Xiao Yu sensed danger again. He also observed a blueshift, a sign that the source of radiation was rapidly approaching him. This time, two different radiation sources!

Damn, I'm going to die! Xiao Yu was shocked, and in a panic, he didn't care that he couldn't see these things at all, he just took out the laser gun and aimed at the direction of the radiation source in the observation. A segment of laser light was fired at maximum power.

The laser flickered, and Xiao Yu's observation equipment showed that the blue shift of a radiation source disappeared, and the radiation intensity of this radiation source also decreased by two percentage points.

This is so weird. Xiao Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, the radiation source had another blue shift.

It was as if there was an invisible creature there. Under the blow of Xiao Yu's laser gun, it paused for a while, and then continued to pounce towards Xiao Yu.

It's really weird. Xiao Yu scolded, and continued to shoot in that direction with the laser gun.

This shot did not weaken its strength. Xiao Yu checked the data, only to find that this thing actually changed its orientation and escaped the shooting of the laser gun.

Xiao Yu froze in his heart, then turned the muzzle and re-aimed at the radiation source. After hiding from the radiation source, Xiao Yu aimed again. It's as if a policeman is constantly targeting a robber who is constantly dodging.

Under the constant laser strikes, the observation equipment shows that the radiation source is constantly decreasing in intensity, but although the intensity is decreasing, its blue shift has not disappeared.

The laser gun fired for about three minutes and consumed almost a ton of fuel. Finally, the radiation source disappeared from Xiao Yu's observation equipment.

I really encountered a ghost. Although one radiation source was eliminated, Xiao Yu didn't dare to neglect at all. He turned the laser gun and shot at another radiation source. Four minutes later, another radiation source was shot. The radiation source also disappeared, Xiao Yu was relieved.

Xiao Yu began to think, what the hell is this.

First of all, this thing is invisible, but its presence can be detected by the Geiger counter, the direction and speed of their movement can be determined by redshift and blueshift, and their radiation intensity can be reduced by a laser gun until the wipe out.

This is... a creature on Jupiter? Gradually, under the analysis, an astonishing thought appeared in Xiao Yu's mind.

It can take the initiative to attack Xiao Yu, and can also take the initiative to avoid the shooting of the laser gun, which seems to indicate that this thing has its own consciousness.

This completely subverted Xiao Yu's previous understanding of the word life. In the eyes of most people, including Xiao Yu, life can be seen and touched, and even the tiniest virus with only basic DNA structure can reveal its shape under an electron microscope.

So, how to define an existence that has its own consciousness, can move around, but has no mass, is completely transparent, does not emit or reflect any visible light, and the whole body is just a source of radiation, how should this existence be defined?

Time has not allowed Xiao Yu to think. Because Xiao Yu observed that there are at least hundreds of such radiation sources on a Jupiter satellite 300,000 kilometers ahead, and they all showed a strong blue shift, which shows that they are very close to each other. The astonishing speed is approaching Xiao Yu, and the approaching speed of the two sides is almost as high as 150 kilometers per second!

At this speed, it only takes half an hour for the two sides to meet head-to-head!

Xiao Yu's current radiation protection layer can only withstand up to four such radiation sources. If hundreds of radiation sources are attached to the surface of Xiao Yu's spaceship, the outer shell of Xiao Yu's spaceship will be instantly melted, and all the spacecraft circuits will be short-circuited. , the central computer will be paralyzed instantly!

Such a result means Xiao Yu's complete death. Even if the central computer is repaired and can be turned on again in the future, Xiao Yu will not survive.

Because as soon as the machine is turned off, Xiao Yu's consciousness will become a piece of code fixed on the storage device, and he will lose his self-consciousness.

Damn it! Xiao Yu cursed bitterly, no longer caring about the energy consumption, he increased the power of the laser gun to the maximum, aimed at that direction, and started shooting.

The laser gun fired a powerful laser at a rate of almost one ton of fuel per minute, but even so, it took Xiao Yu almost two minutes to eliminate a radiation source. With such efficiency, when they met head-to-head, Xiao Yu only eliminated fifteen radiation sources at most.

But what about the remaining eighty or ninety radiation sources?

That won't work. Xiao Yu's brain began to operate at full power. In an instant, countless plans emerged, which were tested by Xiao Yu one by one, and then abandoned one by one.

Finally, one plan passed the feasibility test.

There is only one way, then, give it a try, it's better than sitting still.

Xiao Yu sighed and began to control the robot to quickly transform a metal box, which was attached to the inner wall of the spaceship.

Then let's get started, Radiation Source Capture Program!
