Chapter 325 The Handcrafted Underworld (3k)

Jupiter's orbit has never been so bright.

The Pan-Jupiter orbital defense system has begun operation. Four hundred million kilometers away, the entire armed forces of the solar system fleet are operating at an unprecedented intensity, engaged in a decisive battle with the droplet eruption.

High-powered laser weapons such as the "Sun Spear," "Moon Spear," and "Star Spear," which were relocated from the Great Ring, are operating continuously on Io I, Io III, Io IV, and Io V, attempting to snipe the nine water droplets dancing wildly in the universe.

Nine swords of Damocles hang over the fate of mankind.

Earth's orbit, Mars' orbit, Venus' orbit, Uranus' orbit, Neptune's orbit—tens of thousands of planetary-level warships are collectively turning and successively entering [Advance III] state, transforming into ten thousand resolute silver rays rushing to the battlefield, heading towards the Jupiter battlefield.

The combat mission of planetary-class warships is very rational: to use themselves as a shield and buy even a second more time for the evacuation of star-class warships.

An unexpected reinforcement joined the ranks of those going to their deaths.

Approximately two thousand Tyrant-class warships ignited their crude nuclear fusion reactors, gradually transforming from the original asteroid belt into their current large ring orbit, becoming two thousand yellowish-brown lights that closely followed the wakes of the human planetary warships as they rushed toward the battlefield.

These "Tyrant-class" warships were sent out to outflank humanity before the Devouring Ring engaged in battle with them. However, before these Devouring warships could even reach the other side of the solar system, the Devouring Empire was defeated at lightning speed and surrendered unconditionally.

The two thousand "Tyrant-class" warships today are still primarily driven by dinosaurs, with only a few human crew members. Previously, these warships were in a large orbit, acting as satellites of the large orbit.

Now, these dinosaur warships have become the last space armed force in the solar system. Having experienced the destruction of the dragon-ant civilization, dinosaurs understood the principle of mutual dependence better than humans.

Commander Tyrannosaurus Karl of the Great Ring is appointed as the overall commander of the human fleet for this mission.

This was the first time that humans and dinosaurs fought side by side.

Hopefully this won't be the last time.

A key piece of intelligence laid the foundation for the tactics: the water droplet is still subject to the conservation of momentum!
It has now been confirmed that after a water droplet collides with a warship, its speed will drop to 1-2 percent, and even a water droplet will need time to accelerate back to its original speed.

The sacrifice of every planetary-class warship can buy a star-class warship several minutes of acceleration time!
The stellar-class warships possess complete ecosystems and hibernation systems, as well as a balanced male-to-female ratio. As long as the stellar-class warships exist, human civilization will forever maintain its hope of avenging the Trisolarans.

Survive, then take revenge!

This is the hope that the entire fleet internationally places on the Stellar-class warship.

...

To be honest, Luo Qing did want to put some pressure on humanity, but he wasn't aiming to wipe out the entire fleet.

But now, his situation is not much better than that of the Solar System Fleet.

Luo Qing felt that he was being watched by at least dozens of gazes at this moment, most of which were from god-level individuals. These gazes were cast from all parts of the Milky Way to the vicinity of the solar system, watching his 'battle' with that piece of light amber.

The two most recent gazes were even outside the Kuiper Belt!

He had long anticipated some trouble in the future, but he never expected it to be so outrageous.

If it weren't for the interference of the light amber, he would have intercepted at least nine water droplets, imprisoning them in a space, or destroyed them, leaving one for humanity to use as a trial.

He would let humanity figure out a way to solve the problem of one of the three bodies and complete the Trisolaran test. Even if it meant losing a hundred or so star-class warships, he would accept it.

With the Emperor's Banner as a safety net, even if Luo Qing is dead, he is confident he can get them back. It's just a matter of staying in the Emperor's Banner for a while first, and then passing the Cloning Act to carry out mass "soul transfer" operations, using soulless infant embryos to revive these warriors and complete this somewhat irregular reincarnation operation.

Anyway, apart from the Meng Po soup, the Little Underworld has nothing to lack. Even the missing Hell section can be replaced by the Quantum Prison.

There was no other way; with Houtu and the Ten Kings of Hell absent, Luo Qing had to do everything himself, even the smallest things. This poor Nascent Soul cultivator had spent decades building the Underworld by hand.

At least Jiang Renhuang had Sect Master Bai and others to help him (crossed out), but here, Luo Qing could only rely on himself, and he couldn't count on a certain Foundation Establishment ancestor surnamed Luo for the time being.

The phantom of the Human Emperor Banner covered the entire solar system, making it the only "small underworld" in this observable universe. Any intelligent beings who sacrificed themselves in resisting the Trisolaran invasion would be absorbed into it, waiting for Luo Qing to manually reincarnate them.

Even those dead mushrooms, Luo Qing can personally cultivate a spiritual field to revive them, transforming the dead glowing mushrooms into immortal spirit mushrooms, thus completing the sublimation of life.

Even for dinosaurs, Luo Qing had prepared a batch of dinosaur eggs in advance. If a dinosaur died while protecting the solar system, it could also enjoy the treatment of "reincarnation" with its memories intact.

Within the solar system, all victims are treated equally!
However, the fact that the victims can be reincarnated does not mean that the entire fleet can be allowed to be wiped out!

Compared to Earth, the Solar System International is the true pillar of human civilization today. The current human world absolutely cannot afford the loss of the entire Solar System Fleet.

If Fleet International were to perish, it would be a devastating blow to human civilization! Moreover, humanity already possesses the ability to pass the "threshold test" set by Luo Qing. Just now, the Natural Selection, in cooperation with Ding Yi, demonstrated a perfect solution to a single water droplet, and that is enough.

Nine water droplets are still too much like a supermodel.

Luo Qing had long guessed that the Trisolaran First Fleet would most likely be able to quickly wipe out the human solar system fleet, but he really didn't expect that ten drops of "water" "splashed" out of the Trisolaran technological ocean would be enough to make humanity unable to raise its head.

Feeling thousands upon thousands of souls surging into the Human Emperor Banner every second, Luo Qing, who was frantically fleeing for his life, knew he had to come up with a solution.

...

At this moment, countless nuclear bombs, laser beams, particle beams, and electromagnetic projectiles are relentlessly bombarding the water droplet.

The water droplet is still bound by the law of conservation of momentum!
The human side unleashed terrifying interception firepower.

At one point, the electromagnetic railgun matrix of Europa fired millions of terrifying electromagnetic projectiles per second in a supersaturated bombardment, forcibly reducing the water droplet from eight percent of the speed of light to a relative standstill!
Control of the water droplets is in the hands of the Trisolaran main world. At this moment, the Trisolaran manipulator who controls the nine water droplets is also feeling a bit numb in his mind membrane.

Humanity's desperate counterattack is terrifying.

Although the electromagnetic railgun could not destroy the target, it greatly slowed down the enemy's rate of slaughtering friendly starships.

Thanks to the 2015 Pacific military exercises, humanity did anticipate engaging such high-speed, sensitive targets. As a result, the accuracy of various defensive arrays was excellent, and with the support of 550W quantum computers, their computing power was comparable to that of sophons. Various pre-planned strikes and fire blockades were everywhere.

Humanity only lost because of its opponent's "indestructibility" and "maneuverability outside the rules of physics".

It's worth noting that Luo Qing had to condense a protective magic array to face a nuclear explosion, while the water droplet could move freely through the center of the nuclear blast!
The intelligence gathered by the Deep Space at the cost of its lives was invaluable, providing crucial analytical foundations for MOSS and human commanders. Former fleet commanders Serantin and Vitalis personally took command at the front lines, and all three fleets simultaneously authorized MOSS to comprehensively coordinate the pan-Jupiter defense system.

bombardment!

Saturation bombardment!
Endless bombardment!
A bombardment without regard to cost!
The massive gears of the Pan-Jupiter orbital defense network are turning, unleashing all their power on these nine solar system invaders!
At least for this moment, the combination of the "MOSS + Jupiter defense system" and the "Sophon + Droplet" achieved a brief and fragile balance. On average, only one star-class warship exploded every one or two minutes.

This performance is much better now. At least the efficiency of nine droplets annihilating a human fleet is far lower than the efficiency of a single droplet wiping out 2015 star-class warships in a very short time at a certain timeline.

But this balance is crumbling. The Trisolaran civilization has already deployed two droplets to penetrate Europa and Ganymede, beginning to destroy the defensive positions on the surface of Jupiter's moons. They are using the simplest and most brutal methods to destroy the electromagnetic gun and laser positions that interfere with the operation of the droplets.

Even with its extraordinary abilities, MOSS was powerless to reverse the tide of battle given the absolute technological gap; it could only do its best to slow down the rate of human defeat.

Nine water droplets are way too many...

If there are only two or even three targets, MOSS and human commanders at all levels are confident that they can delay the enemy, allowing most of the star-class warships to escape, and even manage to destroy these droplets.

Whether it's MOSS, the scholars of the Digital Republic, or scientists in the macroscopic world, they have all come to the truth about water droplet materials: the outer shell of a water droplet has a dense atomic nucleus structure, while the interior has an ordinary atomic structure, making it a theoretically strong nuclear force material.

This material, which is comparable to the hardness of a neutron star, is not invincible.

In theory, as long as the external force is greater than the strong nuclear force provided by the strong interaction force generator, there is still a chance to destroy this dense atomic nucleus, which is comparable to the surface of a neutron star.

At least in MOSS's calculations, concentrating the explosive power of a stellar hydrogen bomb into a single point and releasing it would have the strong interaction force shell to destroy a water droplet; however, this method is far beyond human technological capabilities.

In addition, there is antimatter, four-dimensional fragments, and Ding Yi's hammer.

All three methods have the ability to destroy water droplets.

Unfortunately, Fleet International and the entire human world have no ability to replicate these weapons in a short period of time. If humanity had known the destructive power of the droplets beforehand, and given another year, humanity could have gathered the power of the entire civilization to create nine antimatter bullets to destroy them.

Moss also noticed the "battle" on the surface of the sun and realized that the Wallfacer was probably in trouble as well. She recalculated the probability of humanity defeating the nine droplets.

He then frowned slightly, took a step back, and shielded the solar system fleet in front of him.

At the Mercury Hollow Base, an unmanned stellar-class warship slowly emerged, fully loaded with data from the Digital Republic, multiple 550W quantum computers, and a large number of general-purpose industrial robots. It headed in the opposite direction of the battlefield, adjusted its target to a star 68 light-years away, and quickly entered the forward four-stage state.

The eight chemical propulsion units, no longer concealed, erupted one after another, increasing the acceleration of this unmanned star-class warship to 1000G!

This is the "Little Moss" starship from MOSS's collection.

If humanity truly loses the war against the Trisolarans, then this mechanical seed will inherit the legacy of human civilization and one day complete the task of taking revenge on the Trisolaran civilization in place of humanity.
