Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 984: The Battle Star Under Construction
This message was followed by a star map. Since this small universe was pitch black, humans and the Daya civilization had no reference objects at all, so the Shenju civilization considerately marked the center of the coordinates of the two civilizations on the star map.

And tell the two civilizations how to navigate in the star map.

After discussing with the Daya civilization, they decided to follow the guidance of the Divine Principle Civilization to take a look. Sure enough, after sailing for a while according to the guidance of the Divine Principle Civilization, different scenes appeared on the spacecraft displays of the two civilizations.

First, light.

There is indeed light in the small universe of the Shenju civilization, but due to a certain spatial layout, it did not shine to the previous locations of humans and Daya civilization.

The light was dim, but it was enough for humans and Dayan civilization to distinguish what it was.

There were many stars that were completely wrapped, only 22. Of course, there might be more stars in other spaces of the microcosm. From the previous scene, we know that the Shenju civilization is capable of doing this.

The surface of the star is covered with a layer of almost opaque substance. Neither humans nor the Dayan civilization know what it is. It does not look like the Dyson sphere we know, but more like the advanced thing that humans saw in the Pioneer microcosm.

The reason why these stars have only faint light is because of these things.

Moreover, humans and the Dayan civilization soon discovered a difference. The space-time curvature detectors of both civilizations did not detect any gravitational phenomena exhibited by those stars.

Gravity, if there is mass, there must be curvature of space-time, so the space-time curvature detector must be able to detect it. But now those 22 stars do not show any gravitational phenomena, how can this not surprise the two civilizations.

"Is this the reason why the Shenju civilization is so confident that the microcosm will not be detected?" The scientific officer on the Tianqin seemed to have thought of something. Seeing the people next to him looking at him, he continued, "It should be the gravity shielding technology. Otherwise, there is no way to explain the phenomenon of not being able to detect gravity."

Gravitational shielding technology?

It seems so
Everyone looked at the detector feedback data without any response, and they were already 90% sure.

But it was not just the twenty-two stars that surprised them, because as the distance got closer, other things appeared on the holographic screen.

They were huge spaceships, or more accurately, warships. They were very large, with a length of more than 2,000 kilometers, a width and a height of nearly 2,000 kilometers, and looked not much smaller than the moon.

There are tens of thousands of such warships, quietly hovering around the twenty-two stars, and behind them, between the twenty-two stars, is a white planet.

There were a group of spaceships of various sizes coming and going around the planet and in that area, as if they were busy doing something.

The Shenju civilization did not put any obstacles in the way of humans and Daya civilizations, allowing the probes of the two civilizations to approach and observe.

As the exploration deepened, humans and the Dayan civilization also obtained data about the planet.

The planet has a diameter of only over 4,000 kilometers, only slightly larger than the moon. It is inconspicuous among many large warships and more than 20 stars, but it is obvious that the planet is the target of the Shenju civilization.

The detection data was quickly transmitted to the command center of human and Dayan civilization.

The planet has a diameter of 4485.65 kilometers, and its apparent color is white. It has a very low brightness, but its temperature and density are also very high. It also has a strong magnetic field, but like those stars, it also has no long-range gravitational force. Apart from this, it has all the characteristics of a white dwarf, and is obviously a white dwarf. White dwarfs are when the star is in the red giant stage. Due to the exhaustion of helium fuel, the radiation pressure cannot balance the gravity, and the external matter expands outward and continues to cool, while the internal helium core is continuously contracted and collapsed by gravity.

The compressed matter continues to collide and become hot due to the squeezing, and eventually the inner core exceeds the temperature of helium nuclear fusion. At this point, the star begins to enter the helium nuclear fusion stage. After millions of years, the helium is consumed. At this time, the outer circle of the star is still dominated by hydrogen and helium, but it has become dominated by oxygen.

Therefore, the energy of oxygen nuclear fusion begins to become the main force for the star to resist gravitational collapse. After a long time, the products of oxygen nuclear fusion begin to accumulate, and a mixture of carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium, etc. begins to appear in the core of the star.

Eventually, because the mass of the star is not large enough, the collision temperature of the matter produced by gravitational compression can no longer reach the conditions for nuclear fusion of these heavy elements, and finally the stellar fusion stops, and gravity becomes the dominant force. As a result, countless stellar matter collapses inward at nearly the speed of light due to gravity, and eventually countless matter collides with each other to burst out huge energy. At this point, after a burst of intense light, the star ends its life.

The remaining core after the explosion did not exceed the Chandrasekhar limit, and thus a white dwarf was born.

If the Sun is not destroyed by a celestial civilization, it will eventually become a white dwarf.

However, the white dwarf that humans and the Dayan civilization see now is obviously different. It has no gravitational force. After continuous observation, the two civilizations were surprised to find that the Shenju civilization is putting matter into this white dwarf.

Those busy spaceships coming and going are the material transporters. They obtain materials from interstellar factories and then deliver them to the orbit of white dwarfs.

Humans and the Dayan civilization saw that the matter released initially floated around the white dwarf without any gravity, but as the matter gradually increased, a force sucked all the matter onto the white dwarf.

The two civilizations observed each other for a while and happened to observe this process.

As the space dust-like matter increases, the white dwarf acts like a vacuum cleaner, sweeping them away.

After completing this action, the busy spacecraft began to return to their previous status and continued to transport materials from one factory to the vicinity of the white dwarf.

After careful observation on Monday, humans and the Dayan civilization discovered a magical phenomenon. After the white dwarf absorbed those things, its diameter did not increase, but instead became a little smaller.

Although it is very small, it is easily detected by humans and Dayan civilizations, which are level five civilizations.

This is clearly the work of the Shenju civilization.

"Great Shenju civilization, what are you doing? Are you building a white dwarf?" Seeing this, the Daya civilization couldn't help but ask.

This time, humans and Dayan civilization clearly detected the source of the information, which was the direction of the group of warships.

[White dwarf? I guess so. As you can see, it is a white dwarf at this stage, but we prefer to call it a white dwarf battle star. Of course, its final name is not this now, because it is still under construction! It will be soon. When it is completed, our Shenju civilization can operate openly in the Milky Way. ]

[Hehe, even at this stage, theoretically it is not afraid of the electronic battleship. White dwarf matter is a dense matter formed by the electron degeneracy force to counteract gravity to maintain balance. No matter how strong the electronic battleship is, it is no more than an electron. Theoretically, it cannot pass through such thick electron degeneracy force matter, but we still think it is not safe enough. Besides, our special technology also supports us to continue to build it, and let the electronic battleship jump around for a little longer! ]
