Chapter 117: Information for the Universe Federationli
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
There was a large-scale firefight happening near Mars.
This news shocked everyone across the globe, including the Earth Federation.
After realizing that there was no reaction from beyond the moon when the Protective Shield was broken, the Earth Federation confidently deployed a large number of detection tools.
Several observation satellites and orbiting telescopes were launched into outer s.p.a.ce from above Biyang City.
After a few days of observation, the situation was finally clarified.
“The entire Martian orbit has a laser defense system…”
“There’s no doubt that this laser defense system was set up by the aliens from the moon. Their aim is obvious, they wanted to hide the existence of Earth…”
“Luckily, the Galactic Federation is stronger. They discovered our existence and chose to attack after brief negotiations…”
“The fireworks beyond the Martian orbit are the frontline of their battle…”
As soon as this information was out, the entire internet was shocked.
“We must do something!”
“We can’t let the Galactic Federation lose heart…”
“We must fight, join forces with them, and bring down the extraterrestrials from the moon…”
“I’m willing to enlist for this fight for justice…”
“Join the fight! Join the fight! Join the fight!”
The online clamor was extremely high, with most people wanting to partic.i.p.ate in this historic event.
Xia-Du Base.
“What are your thoughts on the war between the forces beyond the moon and the Galactic Federation?!”
After a few days of observation, the Federation’s congress members had become calmer. When they found out about the war, they were not excited, but rather appeared worried.
“The expert group has a.n.a.lyzed it. Both their s.p.a.cecrafts are extremely fast. The one from the moon reached 500 Mach, and the Galactic Federation’s reached 10,000 Mach…”
“Besides that, all types of weapons they use are far beyond our imagination…”
“Electromagnetic cannons, rail guns, kinetic energy cannons, star destroyers, lasers and so on… All these weapons can easily destroy Blue Star…”
“And our nuclear weapons, in the universe, there is no air, thus no pressure, and therefore no shock wave…”
“The high temperature and nuclear radiation produced by the explosion, without a medium in the universe, can only propagate in the form of radiation, which is only comparable to the weakest electromagnetic gun, interfering with electronic equipment…”
There are all types of radiation throughout the universe, many of which are even more terrifying than what our nuclear weapons can create. s.p.a.ceships that can withstand these radiations naturally are not afraid of the radiation released by nuclear weapons.
Senator Zhou thought for a moment, then asked, “What’s the maximum speed our s.p.a.ceships can reach?”
“20 Mach, but that’s only if we sacrifice some cargo s.p.a.ce and use them just as s.p.a.ceships…”
” If it’s loaded with fuel and weapons, reaching Mach 10 is already a miracle…”
Colonel Chu shook his head and said, “The most crucial issue is our flight speed is too slow. Even if we want to support the Galactic Federation, it would take us 1833 days to reach the Martian frontline from Earth…”
He paused for a moment, then added, “There’s another important issue now…”
“If we help the Galactic Federation, the aliens from the moon are likely to divert forces to deal with us…”
“With their power, a few shots from their star destroyers would be enough to devastate Earth, or at the very least, kill seventy to eighty percent of the human population…”
Colonel Chu sighed.” That’s why we can’t send troops now. This will attract attention from beyond the moon.”
“Our only means to help the Galactic Federation at present is through intelligence!”
“The good news is, there’s a speed limit in the universe—the speed of light. Our electromagnetic signal transmission time is the same as theirs…”
“Sharing information about the aliens from the moon is our best option right now…”
“It not only helps us avoid attention from those beyond the moon, but also shows our stance to the Galactic Federation. That way, even if they annihilate the aliens, they won’t blame us…”
After hearing this, everyone present was silent for a long time. Finally, Senator
Sun asked, “Do we really need to join the Galactic Federation?!”
“Can’t Earth remain independent?!”
Colonel Chu shook his head.” “The technology gap is too wide. Any alien civilization can easily destroy Earth…”
“Only by attaching ourselves to a powerful civilization can we survive right now…”
“If the Galactic Federation can accommodate 77 civilizations, they can certainly accommodate us…”
“We’re skilled at learning from others to control them. As long as we can endure this initial period, the future of the people on Earth will surely shine brightly…”
“Alright, then let’s keep a close eye on the ships and movements beyond the moon and seize opportunities to pa.s.s on information to the Galactic
Federation..
After three days of preparation, the Earth Federation finally had a somewhat complete set of intelligence.
“We can’t see clearly because of the moon’s curtain, but we have detected almost all the s.p.a.ceships beyond the moon…”
“Good, attach these s.p.a.ceship details and coordinates, along with our relationship with those beyond the moon, and send them all to the Galactic Federation…”
“Remember, avoid detection devices beyond the moon, they absolutely must not discover us…”
“Understood!”
The information sent was divided into three parts.
The first part detailed the history, culture, origins, and technology of Earth, along with the current state of the extraterrestrial blockade and oppression on the moon.
The second part detailed all the observations they could make about the s.p.a.ceships of the moon’s aliens, and their distribution.
The third part asked the Galactic Federation what they should do to help.
“With our intelligence, the Galactic Federation should have an easier fight!”
“Indeed, we’ve told them the locations and coordinates of all the s.p.a.ceships beyond the moon, they owe us a favor even if they win!”
“Absolutely, in war, intelligence is paramount. Our intelligence could potentially decide the course of the battle…”
“Phew, we’ve done all we can, now it’s up to the Galactic Federation…”
Moon Base.
“The Type I Particle Black Hole Thruster is completed, which cla.s.s of s.p.a.ceship should we retrofit first?”
“Shuttle ships!”
Uncle Da, with a serious expression, said, “The enemy has a deadly weapon, the Type III Particle Black Hole Collapse Bomb, which we cannot defend against…”
“If our defensive line is broken and their shuttle ships get in, we’ll struggle to intercept them, or to put it another way, our escort ships can’t keep up with their speed…”
“Prioritize the retrofitting of shuttle ships so they can be used to collide in critical times…”
“The second priority is escort ships, the few battleships that can defend against enemy attacks…”
There’s a clear technology gap between the two sides. Regardless of battleships, destroyers or cruisers, even if equipped with new Particle Black Hole Thrusters, they are still limited by energy conversion technology and energy release technology, making it hard to strike effectively.
Zhao Yu nodded, after discussing the retrofitting of the s.p.a.ceships, he briefly asked about the situation on Earth.
“On the Earth side, they’ve only sent some detection equipment into s.p.a.ce after blowing open the sky curtain, and haven’t taken further action…”
“However, we just intercepted an electromagnetic signal from Earth, it carries a lot of intelligence information…”
Uncle Da projected the cosmic s.p.a.ce around Earth, several cloaked
disk-shaped s.p.a.ceships were patrolling.
Though he didn’t think Earth could pose a threat, Uncle Da still dispatched many disk-shaped ships, which weren’t needed on the battlefield, to monitor every movement of Earth.
“Is this intelligence for the Moro fleet?!”
