Chapter 571: Chapter 572 Can't Help

"After all, Carter's technology is very backward. The empire has had the ability to produce this kind of nuclear fusion spacecraft before, but they did not choose this warship design, but adopted another low-speed but defensive design."

The Carter people's nuclear spacecraft relies on uncontrollable nuclear fusion as the power source of the spacecraft. There is no big problem for the empire to make it. Naturally, the Celine people who Carter can think of can also think that a civilization can't be all fools, but the empire still did not choose this in the end.

"Why? This can accelerate to one-tenth of the speed of light. Another collector expressed puzzlement.

"But warships are not as good as spaceships. Battleships are a kind of high-kill weapon that acts on the battlefield. On the one hand, can they pass the light faster? Coupled with the difficulty of steering caused by the inertial system, the hit rate of high-speed spacecraft is easy to increase, which leads to the need for warships to have a certain degree of structural resistance rather than speed.

After thinking about it, another collector agreed with the idea of the same race.

"Indeed, if it hadn't been for the development of antimatter shields, we wouldn't have dare to increase our movement speed to a very high level."

"For transstellar operations, it is estimated that light-year operations will be carried out in the form of small organisms."

Suddenly, one of the collectors remembered something and sent out the information.

"Speaking of light years, I remember that Carter reported to us that two small fleets were heading out of their mother star at one-tenth of the speed of light."

The other collector was also aware of this matter. Hearing that his peers mentioned this matter, it also expressed its own thoughts.

"It's surprising that Carter people foresaw the space battle not long ago at such an early age."

"Carter is not stupid. He is much smarter than us, but he is too young." The same family replied.

"But there are also many people with their own thoughts, such as those who are loyal to us..."

On the other side of Sori, on the home planet of the Carter people, there stands a huge building stretching from the ground to outer space, which is the cloud-top creature of Amoeba.

The Carter people did not show concern about the existence of Yuntai creatures, because the establishment of Yuntai creatures is precisely to save the Carter people. According to their agreement with Amoeba, after all the Carter people are cured, Yuntai creatures will put away their roots and leave themselves to the Carter people. They will have Sori's complete Autonomy.

Of course, it is also limited to Sori. All other stars except Sori are owned by Amoeba.

At the junction between the biological rhizome of Yuntai and the surface of Soli, a dirty and sloppy tramp was brought here by several soldiers.

Then, several soldiers bowed deeply to the connection and quickly turned away and left.

The tramp was very calm and sat down directly as if he had returned home, and looked around. The connection was surrounded by a high wall, forming a cylinder, like under a deep well somewhere.

Suddenly, the tramp heard a sound coming into his ears.

"Are you the commander-in-chief of the Carters?"

"That's a thing of the past. Now I'm just an ordinary poor tramp." Myron waved his hand with a smile.

The collector doesn't want to go around the circle, but goes straight to the point.

"So tramp Mellon, can you tell us which star is the destination of the two small fleets that fled out of your private instructions?"

"I don't know."

Mellon answered very simply.

"Tell us that this is for your good." The collector reminded.

It was not malicious, because the way the collector showed malice was not like this, but Myron was obviously wrong. He turned his eyes to the connection and asked.

"Do you want to threaten me with the Carters on Sori?"

"No, we don't have that idea. It's really out of good intentions."

The collector emphasized again and declared his thoughts.

Myron feels a little strange.

However, he was relieved to think that he was talking to an alien creature, but he still insisted on his answer. In view of the friendliness of the other party and did not force confessions as soon as he came up, Melan also explained in detail."I really don't know. When I made the plan, I considered that you would get the coordinates of the destination from me. I also thought it was impossible to hide it in the torture of confessions or some high-tech interrogation that can read your memory, so the fled fleet destination star was chosen by the fugitives themselves. I just gave them a chance to escape.

"Real? That's a pity. We can't help you."

After hearing this, the collector expressed regret. After a brief communication, Melan, who had a preliminary understanding of the alien creature in front of him, was puzzled. He could understand that the alien he was facing really saying that he could not help - so the question is, what can he help?

Mellon had a bad feeling, and he hurriedly asked.

"Wait, help us? What do you mean?

The collector did not intend to hide it. After all, it's just something that all Carters will know in the future.

"Then let me tell you something. The star five light years away from you is not the parent star of our Amoeba, but we have colonized there."

"Our Amoeba civilization starts from the starting star system. Every time we come to a star system, we will dismantle the planets in that star system to build star orbits and antimatter giants. After completion of construction, we will continue to colonize the surrounding star systems, so that."

"The speed of the colonial cluster reaches 90% of the speed of light through the star track, and it only takes a few years to travel the distance of light years, but the two small fleets you escaped have only reached one tenth of the speed of light, and the acceleration is very small. It takes a lot of time to accelerate or slow down, which also increases. Added time for transstellar voyages.

"Our colonial cluster of Amoeba can easily catch up with and surpass them, arrive at the destination of the two fleeing fleets early, and dismantle all the planets in that star system, even if we don't know their destination."

When the collector said this, Myron's expression became quite ugly and no longer as easy as before. Every star system like Amoeba, which is unscrupulous in the universe, is colonized and has a much higher speed than the Carter spacecraft. It is almost inevitable that Amoeba meets the two fleeing fleets. .

The collector's explanation continues.

"We know that you have been on an escape voyage to continue civilization. In order to get rid of our pursuit of you, you must choose the farthest and resource-rich star as your destination and resupply with materials after arriving at your destination. Then continue to flee, but unfortunately, when the two fleeing fleets arrive at their destination, they will not see the planets with rich resources, but us.

"The load limits the material reserves of the two fleeing fleets. The material resources that need to be consumed by interstellar voyages must be replenished, unless they are lucky enough to come into contact with a resource-rich planet wandering between the star systems."

"However, even so, it is inevitable that we will eventually enter a star system and come into contact with us without knowing our technical level. Our speed far exceeds you."

The second half of the collector, whether to say or not, is actually meaningless. He just said what Merron thought. After Melon learned of the sublight speed and colonial behavior of Amoeba, he had already thought of this result first.

"Your plan did not save those compatriots who escaped, but only gave them a little hope and a greater despair." The collector said.

Mellon opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but closed it again.

After pondering for a while, Mellen asked.

"If you... met them, what would you do to them?"

"I don't know about this. Different situations are handled differently, and the clusters handle things differently, but one thing is certain is that they won't die, even if they want to die." The collector said.

"Then why did you say those words to me just now?"

Mellen still can't understand what the collector's 'can't help' just now means? Since there is no life danger, what else is there to be afraid of?

"Because life may be worse than death." The collector said.
