Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 550: Plan Exposed?

"Sir, this matter should be completely different from the last time. Our experts' research on the brain technology of the Blue Star humans was just a very accidental thing. No matter how good Ning Chen is at predicting things, he would never have thought of this matter in advance."

"Yes, that's right. It's unlikely that this was a trap designed by Ning Chen. But no matter what, we still have to be as cautious as possible. After all, Ning Chen, the Blue Star man, is too cunning. We can't tell when we will fall into his trap again."

As an advanced civilization that is far ahead of the Blue Star civilization, if it is fooled by the Blue Star civilization, it would undoubtedly be something that is very easy to be ridiculed.

Therefore, they still appear to be very cautious about this matter, even though from the information they can obtain at present, this matter was not deliberately designed by Ning Chen.

But they must also seize this opportunity. If they wait until Ning Chen really deals with this matter and comes back, they will have to face the Blue Star civilization with Ning Chen again.

After some internal discussion, they determined the next major plan.

First of all, they will not change the normal rhythm of attacking the Blue Star civilization. Before they are sure that the information in Pierce's brain is 100% true, they will never go all out for it.

On this basis, they will greatly speed up the pace of their attack on the Blue Star civilization, in order to try to inflict as much damage to the Blue Star civilization as possible during the time when Ning Chen is away.

After all, such opportunities are rare. It can be said that the Blue Star civilization with Ning Chen and without Ning Chen are not Blue Star civilizations of the same level at all.

"Next, we will launch enough laser weapons to Blue Star. If Ning Chen is here, he will definitely be able to think of a corresponding solution. But if Ning Chen is really not here, then the civilization of Blue Star will be in danger..."

This kind of planet-destroying laser attack would also consume a considerable amount of energy from the alien civilization, but this level of consumption was still acceptable to them. Even if it didn't actually cause any effect, it would only be a waste of a little energy at most.

But if this attack really works, then such energy investment can be described as "great value".

After all, this is a method of attack that this alien civilization has never demonstrated before. Although there is indeed a way to crack it, it is not so easy to crack it.

"Sir, we have completed the super-powerful laser attack on Blue Star. It is estimated that these laser weapons will reach Blue Star in a few days. If everything goes well, by that time, the civilization of Blue Star will be completely destroyed."

These laser weapons are not ordinary laser weapons. They can not only destroy almost everything on the surface of the blue planet, but can also have serious impacts tens of meters deep underground.

It is very difficult to find a way to crack this kind of weapon within a few days, not to mention that it also takes a certain amount of time to detect the existence of these lasers.

At this moment, Ning Chen was still immersed in analyzing the principles of the system and had no idea what was happening in the outside world.

However, Song Xiyun reacted very quickly. Using the quantum arrays that Star Technology had previously deployed in various locations in the solar system, Song Xiyun quickly noticed these abnormal situations.

"A laser signal with abnormally strong energy fluctuations... No, this is definitely not a coincidence!"

Song Xiyun was very vigilant and knew that the sudden occurrence of such a thing must be inextricably linked to this alien civilization.

In such an emergency situation, Song Xiyun subconsciously wanted to tell Ning Chen the news and discuss solutions to the problem with Ning Chen.

However, Song Xiyun still tried hard to suppress this impulse. Ning Chen was now dealing with a very important matter. If it was not an extremely urgent situation, Song Xiyun would never disturb Ning Chen.

After calming herself down, Song Xiyun first analyzed the current situation.

Judging from the information transmitted by these quantum arrays, although the power of these laser signals is very strong, it is estimated that it will take several days to reach the Blue Planet, which at least gives them enough time to prepare.

"With Ning Chen's ability, he might be able to solve these problems in a few hours. It won't take more than a day at most..."

Thinking of this, Song Xiyun decided that they should solve this problem by themselves for the time being. If they had not come up with a corresponding solution before these laser weapons arrived at Blue Star in one day, then they should wake up Ning Chen immediately and let Ning Chen handle the matter.

After all, although Ning Chen's work is very important, if the Blue Star civilization has been destroyed before that, no matter how much Ning Chen's abilities improve, it will be of no help.

Without thinking too deeply about these things, Song Xiyun immediately told Xu Zhou, Lu Minghao and others the news.

Upon hearing the news, others were also very surprised and nervous. They had never imagined that the Blue Star civilization would face a life-and-death moment so soon.

"According to the normal flight speed, the space fleet of this alien civilization will need several months to reach the Blue Planet, and this does not include the time their fleet needs to slow down. It is really unusual to suddenly launch an attack at this critical juncture..."

Song Xiyun was also somewhat confused about this matter, because Ning Chen had not considered the possibility of this happening before, which was enough to show that this was not a normal attack method.

But at this time, there is no point in thinking about these things anymore. The most urgent task is to find a way to solve this problem.

After some quick calculations, they realized how serious the matter was.

"No... Blue Planet cannot withstand such a strong laser attack. We must find a way to stop these laser weapons from firing directly at Blue Planet. Otherwise, Blue Planet will forever become a lifeless planet..."

It was impossible to evacuate most people from the Blue Star in a few days. If only a small number of people were evacuated, it would be an absolutely unacceptable result. However, it was also difficult to stop the attack of laser weapons, because laser weapons have very strong collimation. Generally speaking, the priority for avoiding attacks from laser weapons is to avoid them.

However, the rotation and revolution of a planet are full of regularities. When the position has been calculated in advance, it is almost impossible to hide with the planet.

At this time, Xu Zhou suddenly thought of something and said to others:

"I have a method. This method is very difficult to implement, but at least it is feasible in theory..."

Xu Zhou's words naturally attracted the attention of others. Although judging from Xu Zhou's tone, this might not be a very ideal method, it at least brought some hope to everyone.

"Professor Xu Zhou, please tell me what method you have. Even if you can't completely solve some problems, you can always provide some directions."

"Well, this method is to create a huge lens and place it on the path that these lasers must pass. By using the lens's refraction of the lasers, we can make these laser weapons shoot in other directions, thus protecting Blue Planet from attacks by laser weapons..."

After listening to Xu Zhou's explanation, everyone finally realized why Xu Zhou seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Although this method can be tried in theory, it is almost impossible to do in practice.

First of all, in order to refract so many laser weapons fired at the Blue Star civilization, this lens would undoubtedly have to be very large.

If the Blue Star civilization were given a few months, it might be possible to create such a huge lens, but if the time was compressed into a few days, such a huge workload would undoubtedly be impossible to complete.

Because whether it is the research and development of lens materials, the processing and preparation of lens materials, or the testing of lens refractive effects, it all requires sufficient time to complete.

Even if they really managed to make this huge lens, it would not be easy to send it into space.

Feeling that the atmosphere in the conference room was a little low, Lu Minghao quickly comforted everyone:
"Although Professor Xu Zhou's ideas are very difficult to implement, they still provide us with very important ideas. For example, we can try to find better refraction methods, use materials that are easier to send into space, etc. These are all directions for improvement."

"Yes, I also think this is a good idea. I think we should first find more experts to come and study together to see if there are any better suggestions."

Immediately, Song Xiyun used the power of Star Technology to gather dozens of top experts in various fields to discuss the specific implementation details of the "Lens Project".

Even a mathematics expert like Tao Zhexuan was invited by Song Xiyun. Normally, Tao Zhexuan would not get involved in such matters, but at this time, Tao Zhexuan's mathematical ability might play an important role, so Tao Zhexuan himself rushed over without hesitation.

As the world's top expert in materials science, Pierce was also invited. Even though he had risked his life for the Blue Star civilization so many times, Pierce was still willing to risk his life for it again.

However, just when Song Xiyun was about to start the meeting, Song Xiyun suddenly realized that something was wrong, which made Song Xiyun change her mind.

Song Xiyun quietly walked to Pierce and said something to him. After a brief hesitation, Pierce chose to agree to Song Xiyun's request.

"Okay, Mr. Song, I'll leave first. I hope we can perfectly resolve this crisis and hold on until the day when Mr. Ning comes back."

This scene made everyone else present feel a little confused, because Pierce was clearly invited by Song Xiyun personally, but after Pierce came, Song Xiyun asked Pierce to leave. This was indeed very unreasonable.

Even Song Xiyun herself didn't know why she suddenly had such an idea. The moment she saw Pierce, Song Xiyun had a strange feeling that something was wrong in her heart.

This feeling cannot be described very clearly through words. If Song Xiyun had to try to describe it, it would be a bit like what Pierce looked like after he underwent brain transformation.

Even before and after the transformation, Pierce's appearance did not change at all. Even Ning Chen could not directly see the difference, but Song Xiyun could feel something unusual from the bottom of her heart.

This ability, which is similar to a "sixth sense", has been proven time and time again. According to Ning Chen's explanation, this is because Song Xiyun's "mental power" is particularly high, and he can discover internal abnormalities through the external.

Although the absence of a world-class materials expert like Pierce will have a certain impact on the progress of the project, Song Xiyun will not allow hidden dangers to arise, so he made this difficult decision.

Fortunately, Pierce did not ask Song Xiyun the reason for doing so, and accepted Song Xiyun's decision. In order for the Blue Star civilization to safely survive this crisis, Pierce was willing to give everything he had, not to mention that it was just an arrangement that he did not understand.

Although other people didn't know what had just happened, during the time when Ning Chen was away, Song Xiyun was the core of the entire team, and no one had any opinions on Song Xiyun's decisions.

This matter was soon noticed by the alien civilization, and they were all very puzzled about Pierce being suddenly "kicked out" of the conference room.

"Pierce...how come he suddenly lost the qualification to attend this important meeting? Could it be that our plan has been exposed?"

"Impossible. We didn't do anything to Pierce's brain. We just got some information by invading his brain. It's impossible for this to attract their attention. But they suddenly asked Pierce to leave the meeting room. This is indeed something that is very difficult to understand."

"I think the reason for this Blue Star woman's abnormal mental power is that she may not know the problem at all. She just felt something was wrong and made such a decision. But no matter what, this means that we may not be able to learn some important information from Pierce in the future..."
