Super God: Rise of Civilization

As Yang Yu walked to the front of a laboratory in a research institute, he saw a group of Imperial Academicians fiddling with something in front of a 3D holographic projection, and couldn't help but ask a question.

"Your Majesty, this is the Black Hole Project Laboratory, which is mainly responsible for researching black holes."

Upon hearing His Majesty the Emperor's question, Academician Qin Ming quickly provided an explanation.

"Studying black holes?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Yu looked at him in surprise.

Black holes are not something that a Type II civilization can study, right?

Didn't your Imperial Academy of Engineering say that black holes can only be studied by civilizations at least in the late stages of a Level 3 civilization?

“Yes, Your Majesty! A black hole is composed of a scalar polynomial at its center, constructed from a Riemannian curvature tensor, diverging towards a singularity and the surrounding spacetime, with its boundary being a one-way membrane that allows only one way in and no way out…”

"The formation of a black hole is similar to the formation of a neutron star: a star is preparing to destroy itself, and its core rapidly contracts and collapses under its own gravity, resulting in a powerful explosion..."

"Stop, I know all of this."

Yang Yu immediately raised his hand to stop Academician Qin Ming from speaking, saying, "What I see is that they are not studying black holes, but rather dissecting them?"

"They conducted a simulation experiment of annihilating black holes; Your Majesty, please forgive their audacity."

Academician Qin Ming gave an awkward smile.

Annihilating black holes is currently impossible.

It's rather ridiculous that the academicians of the Imperial Academy of Engineering would actually consider annihilating something like a black hole at this stage.

But since it was approved by the dean, he couldn't say anything.

"Annihilation black holes? That's an idea, I like it very much."

Yang Yu's eyes lit up. A black hole!

This is the biggest disaster in the universe right now.

Once captured by the gravity of a black hole, nothing can escape its pull.

"What method do they intend to use to annihilate the black hole?"

"I previously proposed several outlandish examples, some of which were quite absurd, like using a bamboo pole to push a black hole into another universe..."

"As a result, this method failed after simulation."

"Then they wanted to use antimatter to annihilate the black hole..." Academician Qin Ming said upon hearing the emperor's words.

"Antimatter annihilating a black hole? That seems feasible. If there's enough antimatter, the chances of it blowing up a black hole are quite high. Anything else?"

Yang Yu completely ignored the absurd theory that a bamboo pole could be used to push a black hole into another universe, and instead put forward his own ideas on the annihilation of black holes using antimatter weapons.

If there is enough antimatter, and someone is brave enough to put it into practice, we can find out whether it is possible to annihilate a black hole.

That old rogue, Grandpa Hua, always plays with black holes.

If the Empire could develop a way to annihilate black holes, it wouldn't be a good way to protect itself.

"Yes, that is to use a two-dimensional foil to reduce the black hole and its surrounding matter to two dimensions through a dimensional reduction attack. This would destroy the black hole. Alternatively, a four-dimensional foil can be used to upgrade the black hole to four-dimensional space."

"However, we currently only possess the strongest antimatter; dimensional reduction weapons are all conceptual ideas."

"Of course, the above are all conceptual ideas about black holes."

Academician Qin Ming thought carefully about the conceptual ideas proposed by the academicians in the black hole research group.

"Two-dimensional foils and four-dimensional foils are still too far away from us. For now, we should focus on thoroughly mastering the technology of star-driven systems before discussing things that more advanced civilizations should be discussing."

Yang Yu patted him on the shoulder, his gaze falling on the laboratory. "Study these kinds of projects more; who knows, they might actually bring miracles to the Empire."

"promise."

"By the way, how's your weapons research going?"

"I haven't had any inspiration lately, and I've only come up with a concept for a stellar weapon. On the other hand, Academician Wenjiang seems to be researching galaxy-scale resource exploration technology."

"Stellar weapons? Galaxy-level resource detection technology?"

Prime Minister Long Zhi looked at him with a puzzled expression. What is a stellar weapon, and what kind of probe are they researching?

"The stellar weapon, according to our weapons project development team's concept, is a superweapon designed to rapidly annihilate a planetary system-sized entity."

"This weapon will be used on the Empire's fourth-generation mothership. After all, the original design was very ambitious, and only the fourth-generation mothership can accommodate this weapon and provide enough energy."

"hiss!"

After hearing Academician Qin Ming's words, Prime Minister Long Zhi gasped in shock. Stellar weapons, actually used to destroy galaxies?

Are you guys from the Imperial Academy of Engineering crazy?

Are they willing to build and propose any kind of weapon?

"The universe is mysterious; just because we can't access it, does that mean we can dismiss it?"

"They compare us to ants; if we encounter a higher-level civilization, they can easily crush us."

As if sensing the Prime Minister's thoughts, Yang Yu shook his head and said.

Ants possess immense strength beyond their own capabilities, but in the hands of humans, a more advanced intelligent life form, they can be crushed with a mere flick of a finger.

If we place humans on the same level as ants, does that mean that life forms that are more advanced than humans could easily crush them?

Therefore, this is why the Imperial Engineering Institute overturned the theory that the speed of light could not be surpassed.

Just because they haven't encountered something doesn't mean they can dismiss it.

"Your Majesty understands." Long Zhi was slightly embarrassed. He hadn't expected that His Majesty would see right through his thoughts.

Chapter 74 [River System Defense]

They continued walking through the Imperial Academy of Engineering, visiting its various research projects.

"Your Majesty, they are researching defense systems."

Just as everyone stopped in front of a laboratory, Academician Qin Ming hurriedly introduced it to His Majesty the Emperor.

"Defense system?"

"Warship defense system?"

Yang Yu asked uncertainly.

"No, it's the Wenxing Star Ring Defense System."

"The Imperial Academy of Engineering had long anticipated that the Empire's territory was growing ever larger, while the Empire's number of warships was insufficient to protect its borders."

"If multiple civilizations unite to attack my Star Empire, the Imperial fleet will be unable to stop them, and they can easily advance unimpeded."

“In the past, our empire's territory was small, and we had enough warships to defend it.”

"However, with the expansion of the territory, no matter how many warships are built, it will be of little use to the empire. Therefore, the Imperial Academy of Engineering has been researching defense systems in recent years."

Academician Qin Ming explained the so-called defense system to His Majesty the Emperor in detail.

How large is the defense range?

Prime Minister Yong Chi only had this one question.

Not only did the Imperial Academy of Engineering consider this, but their cabinet also did.

"The Imperial Academy of Engineering's prediction is to defend the entire river system," Academician Qin Ming said in a low voice, his eyes flashing.

"What are you afraid of? Be brave! This is my Star Empire, who can do anything to you?"

"Even if the sky falls, I and the Empire's billions of troops will hold it up for you."

Seeing this, Yang Yu chuckled and pointed to the starry sea, "The Minister of Education is right, this Pain Galaxy needs a new owner and a new name."

"You can conduct your research with confidence. The Empire is behind you and will be the strongest support for your Imperial Academy of Engineering."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Upon hearing the Emperor's words, Academician Qin Ming replied firmly, "Our defensive star ring system is a large-scale defensive system for the entire galaxy, used to defend against enemy attacks."

"A total of three lines of defense were designed. Once the first line of defense is activated, the entire star system in the Milky Way will be connected and will exchange energy with each other."

"No matter what kind of warship it is, once it enters the first line of defense, it will be reduced to ashes."

"The second line of defense is to directly use planet-destroying weapons, antimatter weapons, gravity weapons and other weapons to carry out indiscriminate large-scale bombing, without any order or rules. In thirty seconds, the star ring of the defense line can be filled with energy."

"Once the second line of defense is breached and the enemy enters the detection range of the third line of defense, the star in their star system will be detonated."

"And the third line of defense will also launch at least one hundred colony ships to escape immediately."

"After all, the enemy has already breached the second line of defense, which means that we are no match for that enemy."

"The purpose of the third line of defense is to buy time for the Imperial colony ships to escape."

"We will obtain the genes and memories of His Majesty, his ministers, and academicians in advance when the war breaks out."

"Within a specified time after the colony ship escapes, your genes will be placed into the cloning chamber to clone an emperor and his ministers."

Academician Qin Ming patiently explained the Star Empire's defense system.

This was their prepared escape route in case the empire went to war.

"What if they all escape?"

Yang Yu frowned. Although this method was somewhat inhumane, it was the only flame of civilization that could be preserved.

"If they all escape, the artificial intelligence inside these colony ships will connect to the Empire's special channel to communicate and confirm whether the other ship has gone further than its own colony ship."

"If your ship goes the furthest, the other ships will immediately destroy all the genes, memories, and technical data on board."

"After destroying those technology, gene, and memory storage devices, the colony ships will choose the nearest planet and silently enter the planet's interior for deep hibernation."

"When needed, Your Majesty can activate them with the authority to send them to the newly established civilization location as quickly as possible."

Academician Qin Ming explained tirelessly.

Yang Yu was very satisfied with what he heard, but he had a concern: "What will happen if the escaping colony ship is captured by the enemy?"

"Once a colony ship detects an approaching warship, whether it is friendly or enemy, it will instantly detonate the energy inside."

"very nice."

He expressed his satisfaction, saying, "Don't worry, you Imperial Academy of Engineering can go ahead and do it. With me backing you up, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"promise."
