Fifty thousand kilometers...
Thirty-five thousand kilometers...
Ten thousand kilometers...
In the end, the combined fleet's formation remained a thousand kilometers away from the water droplet.
This is data obtained after precise calculation. The self-destruction that humans can imagine that produces the greatest energy is the annihilation of matter and antimatter.
Given the size of the water droplet, even if it annihilates and self-destructs, a thousand kilometers is still safe enough.
At this distance, the Combined Fleet and the humans watching the broadcast on Earth can already see the exact shape of the water droplets with the help of detectors.
It looks so fragile, simple and beautiful.
The droplet's shape appears so lifelike that observers sometimes actually think it is liquid, rather than having an internal mechanical structure.
“It’s so beautiful, like the tears of the Virgin Mary.”
A female officer on the starship said.
Her words resonated strongly, and humans began to suspect that the water droplets were just a gift from the Trisolarans.
The edge of the combined fleet.
Inside the cabin of the "Quantum" star-class battleship.
A white-haired old man was packing his equipment with his assistant.
Electron microscope, geological hammer, temperature measuring device...
They packed the equipment piece by piece.
As the most prestigious scientist on Earth, Ding Yi will be the first person to touch a water droplet.
Take a small shuttle to study water droplets up close.
The risk is great, but the old man's thirst for knowledge has long made him no longer afraid of death.
"I don't feel good."
Ding Yi pointed the pipe in his hand at the holographic image of the water droplet in the detector.
"Why? It looks like a harmless piece of art," said an officer.
"That's why I feel bad." Ding Yi frowned.
"It doesn't look like an interstellar probe, but it looks like a work of art. It's not a good sign if something is too far from our conception of it."
Ding Yi always felt a sense of unease in his heart. Humanity had achieved unimaginable achievements during this period.
It seemed as if defeating the Trisolaran fleet was a natural thing.
However, as a scientist, he understood that humanity's basic technology had not advanced at all in hundreds of years.
"Children, do you know what I have been doing all these years? I teach physics at the university and supervise doctoral students."
"I lived two centuries ago, and yet I can still teach physics at a university. Haha..."
He shook his head and looked out the window.
suddenly.
In the dark starry sky, he saw a rather discordant scene.
A dazzling spot of light was coming from the side of Neptune's orbit towards the combined fleet and the water droplets.
At first Ding Yi suspected that it was a warship of the Combined Fleet.
But he quickly denied the speculation.
It is so large that human starships cannot observe it with the naked eye at this distance.
And it was moving at an extremely fast speed, almost like a meteor, from one end of the solar system to the other.
As a key figure involved in the research of starships and controlled nuclear fusion, Ding Yi was well aware that the human fleet could not reach such an astonishing speed.
"Is something approaching us from Neptune's orbit?"
Ding Yi asked.
After reporting through layers of authorities, the captain of the Quantum and the entire combined fleet became instantly nervous.
The starship activated its radar detection at maximum power and detected nothing abnormal.
"No, Mr. Ding, there is nothing in the solar system except us and the water droplets."
The correspondent reported.
"Outside!!! Use your eyes to see!!!"
"Never mind the stupid equipment!!!"
Ding Yi knocked on the porthole and roared.
One, two, countless crew members turned their heads to look at one side of the porthole.
Then they were all stunned.
A giant ship, thousands of times larger than the stellar battleships in the combined fleet and comparable to a planet, is sailing in the starry sky.
On an astronomical scale, its towering hull was almost as large as the combined fleet's two thousand starships in formation.
The length of the starship's main axis alone is thousands of kilometers.
The armed wings spread out on both sides blocked out a large area of the starry sky, and were equipped with terrifying axis-based weapons.
Each weapon and turret on it was much larger than the star-class ships of the Combined Fleet.
Ding Yi didn't recognize things like tachyon spears and focused arcs.
I just think they are definitely more powerful than the weapons of the Combined Fleet.
A moon-sized starship is completely beyond human's existing physics and engineering theories.
A simple truth suddenly came to his mind:
The Space Force's star-class spacecraft is about the size of three aircraft carriers. One is enough to cleanse the surface of the earth and can easily destroy a country.
So, what about this spacecraft that is the size of an asteroid?
Who is it? Where did it come from?
What is it here for?
Ding Yi's mind was filled with a lot of questions.
Finally, all I could say was:
"Silly children, run!!!"
...
.......
Chapter 385 "You are all bugs"
The human joint fleet was completely unable to understand what was happening at first.
The Space Force fleet relies too much on so-called advanced technology.
No movement of that giant ship was detected on the radar screens of any starships.
It is technically invisible to everyone.
Logically speaking, a starship of similar size to the moon would inevitably cause significant disturbances to other planets in the solar system.
But it has no gravity at all, and neither gravitational wave detection nor radar waves can detect any abnormality.
Only when the distance is close enough can you see that huge monster with your naked eyes.
Even the people watching the excitement on Earth saw the Wannian Fengxue before the crew of the Combined Fleet.
They looked up at the night sky.
On one side of the night sky are two thousand points of light, that is the space force fleet.
On the other side was a meteor as big as the moon, streaking across the sky.
When it passed the perihelion, its wings that covered the sky blocked out the moonlight and the starry sky, casting a large dark shadow in the northern hemisphere.
Almost the entire Eurasian continent was shrouded in the shadow of the Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow.
The people on Earth stared blankly at the sky.
There was no information about planetary warships in any intelligence received from the Space Force.
It will take another two hundred years for the Trisolaran First Fleet to reach Earth.
All that has arrived so far is a probe.
As for the other aliens?
Humanity has forgotten that there are other alien civilizations beyond Alpha Centauri.
What's more, if a spacecraft of such a large size approaches the solar system from outer space, there is no reason why the Space Force would not discover it.
"Run? Where to? Why?"
"Where did it come from? Why didn't we find it?"
The officer beside Ding Yi asked subconsciously.
After the Combined Fleet discovered the Wannian Fengxue, most of the captains and crew members, as well as the Commander-in-Chief of the Space Force, were in a state of extreme shock and briefly shut down.
"Neither gravitational wave nor radar observations revealed any anomalies?!"
Ding Yi originally wanted to urge the fleet to stay away from the giant ship, but he soon received even more shocking news from the technical officer.
"No, the detection station in Saturn's orbit has not detected anything."
The sergeant shook his head.
Ding Yi frowned and thought for a moment.
Cold sweat gradually seeped down from his forehead.
A planet-sized spacecraft arrived in the solar system from an alien galaxy without being detected at all.
As far as I know, there are two possibilities:
First, its anti-reconnaissance technology exceeds all existing human levels. Things like gravitational waves and electromagnetic waves have no effect on it.
Second, in an accelerated state, it exceeds the speed of gravitational wave detection, which is the speed of light.
The electromagnetic waves emitted by the detector are completely unable to keep up with the speed of the starship, and no signal reflection can be received at all. Naturally, humans, and even all civilizations in the universe, cannot observe its existence through observation and aiming equipment.
It could be the first, the second, or both.
Ding Yi shook his head. He felt that the second hypothesis was too horrifying. Just thinking about it was terrifying, and he instinctively didn't want to believe it.
"Asian Fleet, North American Fleet, European Fleet, disperse!!! Enter combat status!!!"
The commander-in-chief of the Space Force quickly issued an order.
The three major fleets and more than 2,000 starships slowly adjusted their formations.
With basic technology locked down, although humans have the ability to build spacecraft, the corresponding command system has not been established.
For a moment, there was a commotion among the starships.
The water droplets a thousand kilometers away seemed to sense something.
It turned towards the Ten Thousand Years Wind and Snow, emitting an invisible gravitational wave in an attempt to detect the internal structure of the giant ship.
The starship's built-in tachyon jammer prevented it from succeeding, and only a string of garbled characters remained in the returned signal.
In the field of electronic warfare, the sub-light-speed natives are also no match for the super-light-speed civilization.
The basic science of both sides is not on the same level.
Apart from observation with the naked eye, any technical attempt to spy on the Wannian Fengxue would be ineffective.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it feels like the ancient cavalry, trying to jam the radar on the plane by shouting and yelling."
In the bridge, Nymph made a wonderful metaphor.
