From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

“Repeal the laws against defection and allow free escape.”

"The Second Fleet will set sail immediately and enter silent mode,"

Although they didn't know when the Dark Forest attack would come after the coordinates were broadcast, this feeling of a death countdown oppressed every nerve of the Trisolarans. They had to use every minute and every second as if it were the last time to try to preserve more of the spark of civilization.

"We'll focus on building the immigration spaceships, launching them as soon as they're built. We hope the various response plans we've prepared will be effective when the Dark Forest strikes."

The face of the Trisolaran leader was filled with sorrow. For it, the only good news was that the advanced civilization behind humanity did not directly attack the Trisolaran civilization, giving it a chance to breathe?

【Gravity anomalies detected in the galaxy】

While the Trisolaran leader was still rejoicing, an alarm sounded like the whisper of the abyss. When the Trisolarans could no longer even be clowns in a farce, their fate came to an end.

A huge black and red cube, enveloped in a blue-purple halo, descended near Proxima Centauri, one of the three stars in the constellation Centaurus.

The largest mobile battleship in the Xinghai Empire so far: Burning Heaven Divine Soldier

The appearance of this artificial star-level product with a diameter of 70 kilometers immediately set off a huge gravitational torrent in the galaxy. The Trisolaran civilization facilities and asteroids that were too close were directly crushed into powder by this torrent.

Even the relatively far-flung, heavily reinforced Trisolaran mother planet had its numerous facilities paralyzed in an instant. The Second Fleet in the spaceport was reduced to several meaningless fireballs before it could even set sail.

"What's this…"

The Trisolaran leader could only gaze upon the apocalyptic scene within the galaxy. Fear? No, it was no longer able to express any emotion, for it knew that the end of Trisolaran civilization had arrived.

"Please give the Trisolaran civilization a chance to preserve its spark or its records!"

This is the last struggle of the Three-Body Leader.

It believes that just as they, who possess intelligent particles, once monitored humans at all times, the super civilization that can create such a behemoth and has the power to make it suddenly descend in defiance of the laws of physics must also be able to hear its voice at any time.

"If I said, 'Killing everyone is the highest respect for a civilization,' would you feel better? But unfortunately, I just want to see a big fireworks display."

The Burning Heaven Divine Weapon had silently floated above Proxima Centauri.

The diamond-shaped opening on the cube was aimed at the star, and the outer structural module automatically disintegrated into small cubes, revealing the deep core [Starblaster] inside.

An extremely dim beam of light shot towards Proxima Centauri. Through high-energy strikes, the [Starblaster] will forcibly explode the star, and use the energy brought by the explosion and collapse of the star to spread the attack that is enough to destroy everything to the entire star system.

Stars will turn into newborn black holes, planets will turn into debris, and a dazzling firework will appear in the vast and boundless deep space on a cosmic scale.

“…How…horrible…”

The Trisolaran leader did not have another chance to beg for mercy, nor could he issue a single order.

The supernova explosion accelerated to superluminal speed by the [Starblaster] swept across the entire Centaurus in an instant. The mother star that the Trisolarans had reinforced in order to survive under the three stars was crushed into pieces in an instant. A large amount of matter was thrown into the universe by the impact, forming a molten dark red stream.

The remaining two stars in Centaurus were also induced to explode by this impact. The impact and energy of the collision made Centaurus the most dazzling existence in the universe. When these energies are exhausted, a huge black hole will replace the three stars and become the master of this dead galaxy.

"Wuhu, the effect is good."

Si Ye was very satisfied with the visual impact of exploding three stars at once.

The Burning Heaven Divine Weapon, which was unharmed in the supernova explosion, transformed into a simple black and red cube again, floating quietly above the embryonic form of the black hole that was brewing, waiting for the psychic jump engine to charge, just like the tombstone of a disappeared civilization in deep space.

...

"All signals from the home planet have been disconnected... Final order. With the survival of civilization as the highest priority, any means are permitted..."

The Trisolaran First Fleet was in dead silence, and the fleet leader announced the final order from the Trisolaran mother planet with difficulty.

Although there are still some people who are hoping for a lucky break, the rest of the Trisolarans in the fleet know that they are the last Trisolarans.

"Redistribute supplies between the ships. Dehydrate and store everyone except the essential crew members. We need to disperse and flee immediately. According to the last data transmitted back from our home planet, the other civilization may possess faster-than-light capabilities."

"Faster than light... How is that possible..."

This world collapsed from a higher dimension. The continuous dimensionality reduction has locked the truly infinite speed of light at a very ridiculous number, making the universe extremely deep and boundless, and normal negotiations between civilizations can no longer be achieved.

So when the possibility of superluminal speed was mentioned by the fleet leader, the scientist on board the First Fleet's subconscious reaction was that it was impossible, but soon, despair appeared on his face.

"If it's faster than light, what's the point of our struggle?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? According to wartime regulations, anyone who shakes the morale of the troops will be dehydrated and incinerated!"

The Trisolarans of the First Fleet were already worried about the possibility of their home planet being destroyed, and the emotions revealed by this scientist during his breakdown exacerbated the situation. The fleet leader had to personally hold a weapon against the scientist's head to try to cheer him up.

"You don't understand. If it's super-light...if super-light really exists, then it means our every move, no matter the distance, can be seen clearly by the enemy...our struggle is meaningless."

Being dehydrated and then burned is the most severe death penalty in the Trisolaran civilization. However, the scientist remained unmoved in the face of the threat of death, staring at the observation window on the front of the bridge with a foolish look on his face.

“…coming…”

What is coming.

The fleet leader angrily pushed the foolish scientist away. Just as he turned his head, a purple arc of electricity filled his vision and instantly arrived from the far end, illuminating the dark extrasolar void and the faces of all the Trisolarans in the Trisolaran First Fleet.

“…So that’s how it is…”

Leaving behind a final sigh, several arcs of electricity had already hit the ships of the Three-Body First Fleet from all directions. The excessive penetration efficiently and powerfully turned the densely packed Three-Body First Fleet into a gourd. After the restraint structure of the warships driven by antimatter failed, a series of violent explosions immediately occurred.

"This is the pest control team. The target has been cleared. There are no life signals."

The commander of the battleship squadron reported to the fleet command. Their mission was to extinguish the last spark of the Trisolarans and prevent any of them from escaping the net.

"... So fast! I was thinking of capturing a few Trisolarans to study how they can dehydrate... Forget it, the research and engineering ships will warp to your location immediately. They'll help them complete their research, and you can return home."

"Yes!"

...

Chapter 281: Speak on the microphone!

"This is the Pan-Human Community, this is the strength of the Star Empire... It really makes me feel disappointed."

The veins on Zhang Beihai's hand, which was holding the cup, were bulging, revealing the complex emotional fluctuations in his heart.

Si Ye broadcast this battle, which could not really be called a battle, live to the humans on the starship and the little ball. The magnificent Burning Heaven Divine Weapon made people both frightened and excited, and the force that could destroy a galaxy with a wave of his hand made people both afraid and fascinated.

When the Three-Body Civilization came to an end, apart from the cheering people, the dormant people from the old era had complicated expressions, with feelings of melancholy and relief filling their hearts, causing a hint of sadness to appear on their cheerful faces.

In the fight against the Trisolaran civilization, the people of the past sacrificed too much. Some of them were forced into hibernation to support the future, never even seeing their parents and families for the last time. Others shouldered responsibilities that didn't belong to them, using their minds to secure a glimmer of hope for humanity's survival...

Fortunately...now this three-century-long confrontation has finally come to an end.

Although there are some deus ex machinas, human civilization still stands!

"...It seems we still have a lot to learn to become an interstellar civilization."

People at all levels of the coalition government were talking about it.

The Trisolarans and the United Government had only just met once, and before the hatred and anger that had just arisen had time to ferment, the Trisolarans were all caught up in the trap by the Star Sea Empire. Naturally, the United Government could only marvel at the Star Sea Empire's vast power.

Moreover, from a surface-level civilization to an interstellar civilization, the little broken ball has a lot to learn, and its mentality towards various things also needs to be adjusted. The Star Sea Empire, a powerful empire of human civilization, is undoubtedly an extremely good learning object.

"Looks like... I can look forward to my retirement life..."

The Three-Body Civilization was destroyed, and the Wallfacer Project completely lost its meaning. Luo Ji was about to celebrate, but after looking at the subtle balance in the Empire authentication device on his wrist, the former Wallfacer scratched his face in embarrassment.

"…Well, maybe I should get some exercise and see if I can find a suitable job."

...

"With the solar system as the center, within a radius of 500 light years, we have discovered 11 civilizations and 17 suspected traces of civilizations. Your Majesty, this universe is more lively than we imagined."

The effective detection range of the monkey version of the Sentinel Array in this world is 2 light years, but reality is not like a game, and the civilizations of the Three-Body Universe are better at hiding themselves than the civilizations of the Star World. Finding all the alien civilizations in the Sentinel Array is also a daunting task for the computing core of the Sentinel Array.

Within a short range of 500 light years, the officials in charge of the Sentinel Empire have found many civilizations that have hidden their whereabouts. It is conceivable how lively the scene would be when it is magnified to the level of the galaxy or even the universe.

"Unable to fly faster than light, and lightspeed travel would leave conspicuous traces. Civilizations can't expand quickly, so it's normal for their numbers to be larger."

Guderian, commander-in-chief of the Imperial Fourth Fleet, looked at the alien civilization lit up on the star map and shook his head.

"Your Majesty, if the goal is to destroy these civilizations completely, then the Fourth Fleet can easily accomplish this task. However, if you want to capture people to use as fuel for the synaptic condenser, that may be somewhat difficult."

If the goal is just destruction, then it would be easy for the Star Empire to blow up people and the ball, or even the galaxy and the ball.

However, if you want to follow the original idea and capture aliens to use as firewood, it will be a bit troublesome.

First, we have to use the fleet to attack the enemy and break down their resistance, and then use the tractor beam to capture them. Not to mention the time it takes to go back and forth, given the density of aliens in this universe, it seems that the Fourth Fleet alone may not be able to handle it.

"That's your opinion."

Si Ye hadn't expected the Three-Body Universe to be so bustling. There was almost a civilization every few galaxies, and they were all trying hard to develop in a huddled manner. Looking over from the sentry array, it was quite funny.

"Based on the information you provided, we believe we can identify a few valuable high-level civilizations for preemptive strikes, eliminating any potential opponents in advance. As for those weaker civilizations, we can slowly harvest them before this universe is completely 2D-destroyed."

Guderian's idea was to turn the Three-Body Universe into a wheat field. Every time the synaptic condenser burned a batch, the Empire would send people to harvest it. The advantage of doing this was that before the universe was completely two-dimensionalized due to the two-dimensional foil, the Empire's synaptic condenser would basically not lack firewood.

"Then let's do as you say. Let the Sentinel Array's string antenna modules begin charging and prepare for a powerful broadcast."

Speeches made using the Trisolaran gravitational wave antennas might be drowned out by the coordinate system, so Si Ye planned to use the string antennas of the Sentinel Array to shock those cowardly civilizations in this universe who only listen but don't speak.

...

The streamlined spacecraft shaped like a seed flew through the starry sky at the speed of light, leaving a deep yet shallow mark in the deep space.

The singer flipped through the coordinates received by the main core, reviewing and checking them to find and fill in the gaps.

Hide yourself and clean up.

This is the main theme of the universe now. While hiding itself, it tries to clear out the neighbors around it or farther away to make room for its own survival.

The singer's civilization is more radical. They spread seeds, and the seeds will collect coordinates along the way, find out the coordinates with "sincerity", and destroy them.

A coordinate, a coordinate full of sincerity.

The singer saw a very precise coordinate, so precise that he believed there must be a civilization there that should be eliminated. He thought about it and pinched out a mass point from the warehouse.

This attack, which accelerates a mass point to 99% of the speed of light, is simple and crude. It can easily destroy the structure of a star, causing it to collapse and indirectly destroying the entire galaxy. It is a very cheap and easy-to-use weapon.

But just as the main core locked onto that coordinate and its tentacles were unable to grasp the mass point, a tremor that swept across the entire universe passed through the seed at an unimaginable speed, causing the singer to almost let go in fright.

It was a roar that directly plucked the strings of the universe, and a complex and dense piece of information quickly spread to the entire universe.

Crazy?

The main core of the seed instantly mobilized a large number of threads, and the "big eye" used as a means of observation was also projected towards that galaxy, alarming the elders of the seed.

"what's the situation?"

The elder looked at the singer in charge of that direction, his mind filled with confusion.

"I have no idea."
