Chapter 722 - 723 Individual Spy
"Decelerate!"
With the command of the leader of the cluster, the anti-material shield in front of the Leaping creature shines a dazzling light. The reverse propulsion makes the overall speed of the Leaping biological cluster begin to decline, the star rainbow phenomenon gradually weakens, and the stars in the sky gradually break away from the ring of the star rainbow and return to its original correct position.
Reflected in the horizon of the collectors is their destination, the source of the distress signal, the star system that gave birth to the Cox civilization.
"All steering, 37 degrees 84!"
Looking at the destination ahead, the cluster leader gave new instructions to the cluster.
The Leap Biological Cluster as a whole began to deflected its course and began to approach the star system at an oblique angle.
"Our purpose is to get to know the Zerg before we knew them, so the cluster can't enter the star system rashly, which is equivalent to exposing the information to each other in advance."
The cluster leader speaks in the channel again to prevent individuals from ignoring this point. If the other party learns about the collector in turn, the group will be very passive.
However, it is impossible not to let information be leaked. As long as a thing exists, it will release information all the time, and after taking action, more information will be released.
Individual collectors have been identified in the cluster, and the whereabouts of their clusters have been known by all intelligent organisms in the destination star system. historical
"The strong gamma radiation caused by our deceleration should have been noticed by the other party."
When the sublight long voyage slows down, because it uses positive and antimatter annihilation to slow down, a large number of gamma rays will be released, so that there is one more star in the background of the universe, which can be observed without using instruments to see the night sky with the naked eye.
Unless the intelligent species in the star system are blind, it is impossible not to notice the inexplicable pile of stars in the sky.
"But we haven't contacted each other yet. They still know nothing about us, and we do the same to them."
Regarding the knowledge of the existence, the cluster leaders know that this hidden signs of deceleration will expose the existence of the cluster to the vision of the Kox and Zerg.
But this doesn't mean anything. What's wrong with knowing that it exists? At such a long distance, it takes a long time to reach them even with sublight-speed shells. Even if the intelligent species in the star system have super long-range observation capabilities, it will take many days for the light from the cluster to reach the star system.
Unless the other party has the ability to obtain information at superluminal speed, Otherwise, they know nothing except the increase of 'stars' caused by the slowdown of collector clusters.
They may not even think about the space power of other alien civilizations.
"Arrange an individual as a spy unit to disguise himself as a wandering meteorite and go to the star system to obtain Zerg information. With the help of the star's gravity deflected orbit, after leaving the star system, it can meet the cluster of orbiting stars, thus completing the information delivery."
The cluster leader explained to a group of peers that once the cluster enters the stellar system and is observed by the other party, it means that more information about the cluster is obtained by the other party, which is obviously inconsistent with the purpose of the collectors' trip.
"But if it is captured, it also means that the information of the ethnic group will be exposed to the other party."
Some individuals worry that the transstellar displacement that the Zerg can carry out is based on what has been determined by the information of the Kex people for help, so the collectors benchmark it to the same level of technology as their own.
If an individual spy is captured and the other party has the technology of genetic language, he can have a sufficient understanding of the community by obtaining the genetic memory of the individual spy.
Such consequences are undoubtedly more serious than exposing the Leap Forward biological cluster.
In response to this problem, individuals within the Leap Forward biological cluster soon came up with a solution.
"You can kill yourself without leaving a corpse, and arrange a cubic decimeter of antimatter reactor for the spy individual. Once captured, it will be activated immediately. Strong gamma rays will kill the spy individual and have its own genetic destruction effect. Even if there is still a dead body left, the other party will not get anything."
"Good idea."
The cluster leaders agreed.
From each leaping creature, some matter is uniform and a 100 cubic meters of spherical object is constructed. This is the wandering meteorite disguised by the collectors, with a large amount of solid helium and an antimatter reactor inside.
A large-caliber electromagnetic cannon evolved from the side of a leaping creature, and the disguised wandering meteorite was successfully rebued.
"Are you ready?"
As a launching individual, the leap forward creature inquiry.
"Reading."
"The voyage time is two years. Precautions are the priority. Don't expose yourself." Search for books
The leaping creature told the spy individual to disguise himself as a small meteorite, pass the star in a near orbit at a high speed, be deflectioned back by the star's gravity, and then fly out of the star system to join the cluster.
In this process, individual spy individuals will obtain all the information about the Zerg and Kex people inside the star system, such as their space power, such as their space industry strength.
"I understand."
"Let's go!"
With the launch instruction of the leaping organism, the bioelectric signal transmitted from the solid brain promotes the internal antimatter reactor to enhance and release heat energy. The thermal cells accelerate the metabolism to convert heat energy into electric current, and the resistance is enhanced to complete the boost. Driven by strong voltage, the wandering meteorite ejects out and moves towards the star. .
After being ejected for a period of time, the meteorite disguised by the collector successfully passed through the outer Kuiper belt and continued to approach the star.
"Use high-power radar first... No, it can't be used. If you use it, you will be found."
The spy subconsciously wanted to use high-power radar, but it stopped immediately, because releasing radio outward is like shouting out a sound. As long as the Kex and Zerg in the star system have radio reception technology, they will definitely notice that there is something wrong with its meteorite.
There is only one way for individuals to obtain information, that is, to observe the environment in the star system with the help of electromagnetic waves naturally released by stars.
Spy individuals repeatedly switch the electromagnetic wave reception angle, sometimes in the ultraviolet band, sometimes in the infrared band, and sometimes in the visible light band.
"The star system of the four planets has not seen any space buildings..."
"One gaseous planet, three solid planets, and it is uncertain whether there are any planets on the back of the star."
Through the data summarized by various band observations, the collector outlined the general model of the star system, but it is puzzled that the entire star system is not covered with space units as it expected. As a civilization stepping into the universe, this is obviously unreasonable.
"Without enemies, don't that Zerg have a space unit?"
Forget about the Kex people. Why don't they have the Zerg who have come from other star systems? The collector doesn't understand.
After thinking unsucible, the individual spy focused on the planet where the Kex people were located.
"I remember that the rescue message of the Turks said that their rocking star was in the second orbit in the star system... Is that the one?"
"No, no, it's an iced planet. This planet is too far away from the star. So it seems that there should be a planet blocked by the star that I couldn't observe it."
According to the model of the star system, the second planet is an icy planet. Even if it is not close, the collectors do not feel that the harsh environment there will give birth to any decent civilization, and there are no signs of civilized activities.
In this way, the collector can only think that there are still planets that have not been observed by it.
The camouflaged meteorite passes by the star from its near orbit, and the solid helium inside is released, dragging out a long trajectory. From a distance, it really looks like a wandering meteorite flying from the star system.
When the direction is deflected by the star's gravity, the meteorite is disguised to the other side of the star.
At the same time, this position is also an excellent observation angle. The sun-facing surface of the planet is illuminated by the star and will reflect the star's light like a mirror.
The collector clearly observed a planet that was originally blocked by stars.
"There is!"
"A planet covered by a large area of brown, also has other colors in certain areas..."
"This should be the shaking star of the ksman."
"It is necessary to make a little adjustment to the trajectory, otherwise nothing can be observed."
The angle of the helium eruption of the camouflage meteorite has been slightly adjusted, so that the camouflage meteorite can be closer to the planet in its trajectory after flying away from the star.
After camouflaged meteorite approaches the planet for a while, it was observed that there are a large number of space units in the near orbit of the planet.
"Are those the fleets of Zerg civilizations?"
"Units of the same appearance are of different sizes, and the estimated diameter is between 50 and 100 kilometers."
"There are other units with appearance, but they are too far away, and they are too small to get much information..."
"...Should I get closer?" _
