Chapter 3800 Either Charging or Queuing for Charging
There was a little accident in the middle.
But in any case, today's Caesar Trank has gotten his wish for his civilization and got a spare sun.
At this moment, the mechanical civilization fleet dragging the magic-guided civilization sun has already arrived at the border on the other side of their mechanical civilization.
This wave, the reason why it took so much time to come back, dragging the stars and moving slowly, is naturally one of the reasons.
In addition, in order to avoid colliding with the large-scale pursuers on the way back, he chose to take a detour and took another longer route, which was also the reason.
However, the most important reason is the lack of energy!
Towing such a huge star, the energy consumed by the mechanical civilization fleet is very amazing, and the consumption is completely doubled.
In the beginning, the devices covering the stars of the magical civilization and the starships of their mechanical civilization were all full of energy to carry out operations. At the same time, the fleet was also equipped with backup energy, which could be replaced urgently.
Therefore, the efficiency seems to be good, and it has successfully escaped the border of the magic civilization. Following the route calculated by the fleet master, I embarked on the return journey.
The dramatic drop in mobile efficiency starts from the first energy depletion.
Of course, with such a large energy body dragging behind it, the mechanical civilization fleet can be replenished even if the energy is exhausted.
However, this sun is not an electrical socket. When you want to charge, just plug the charging cable and the charging head into it.
In the middle, they actually have a relatively complex conversion process, converting the energy of the sun into high-quality energy that their mechanical civilization can use.
This transformation is accomplished by the layer of devices covering the surface of the sun.
As for the conversion efficiency, it depends on the performance of the device.
And the mechanical civilization fleet, the device brought out this time is different from the one used in their civilization.
The set of devices used in civilization, if you disassemble any part, the specifications are more than 500 meters, and the thickness of the device will be even more exaggerated. There are even a large number of huge external devices on the outer layer. , basically comparable to asteroids.
But here, considering the portability under long-distance movement, the devices they carry are too small.
This has also led to an inevitable and obvious decline in its performance. Compared with the energy acquisition and conversion device in the civilization, the performance of this one is only 9.54% of the former, or even 10%. none.
This made the fleet of mechanical civilizations have to stop and wait for the conversion device to recharge their starships after the energy was exhausted.
You know, there are tens of thousands of starships!
Even charging inside their mechanical civilization takes a lot of time, let alone now?
The most troublesome thing is that this portable energy collection and conversion device has an upper limit on the internal energy conversion reserve.
To give a simple example, an A-class starship of mechanical civilization is full of energy and needs a thousand energy, and this portable energy acquisition and conversion device, it is a small device, and the upper limit of energy that can be stored at one time is only fifty.
At the same time, in order to ensure its normal operation, it can only charge you forty-nine energy sources at a time, then stop charging, then turn around to collect stellar energy, transform and store it again, and repeat this operation continuously. Charge the starship.
Of course, this energy acquisition and conversion device that covers an entire star is composed of countless small devices.
This small device is out of power, and the starship can move to another small device to continue charging.
But, like I said above, there are tens of thousands of starships...
Therefore, the charging after each energy exhaustion is the most time-consuming thing on the way of the mechanical civilization fleet.
Since taking the sun in the hinterland of the magic civilization, it is not so much that they are on their way, it is better to say that they have nearly 70% of the time, either charging or waiting in line to be charged.
In this process, if a device fails and needs to be repaired, it is even more troublesome.
During this period, Caesar Trank was unable to support this side.
On the one hand, due to the pressure brought by the undead army of Zhongmo Styx Civilization, in the face of such an enemy, they have sent tens of thousands of starships to transfer the stars. It is really difficult to continue to send starships outside of civilization.
On the other hand, out of safety considerations, sending a starship to support them risks revealing their whereabouts, and even just being noticed is very dangerous.
This star is a matter of life and death for their mechanical civilization.
If Zhong Mo or Luo Ji discovered the support fleet sent out, the other party would directly send a large army and follow the trail to kill them all the way.
At that time, what else can he do with the mechanical civilization fleet?
Almost 100% of this star cannot be dragged back.
Although it takes a lot of time now, for the mechanical civilization, as long as the star can be dragged back smoothly, everything will be worth it.
The mechanical civilization garrison on that side of the border quickly dispatched to expand the alert range to ensure that this star that has been dragged to the border of their mechanical civilization can be successfully taken over by them.
Of course, before leaving the third-party area and officially entering the territory of Mechanical Civilization, they have to install some special external devices on the outside of this star.
There are a lot of these external devices, and the smallest ones are more than 100 meters in size, and the large ones are even thousands of meters.
As the core of a galaxy, a star itself has a huge gravitational force. When in a third-party region, due to the different regional mechanisms, the existence of the star itself does not show its influence on the surrounding planets.
Although the device that wraps the stars at this time has the effect of counteracting gravity, after all, this set is mainly based on portability, and its performance is relatively average. Coupled with tinkering along the way, the service life is coming to an end. .
Although in the process of replacing stars for civilization, the changes in the gravitational force and position of stars will form traction on a large number of stars in an entire galaxy, resulting in a certain degree of deviation in the position of the planet's coordinates. For this, Caesar Trank It has already been prepared.
But at this stage before the official replacement, it still has to be controlled a little.
In this way, these external devices added by the mechanical civilization to the stars at this time are to ensure that everything is safe and to offset the gravitational force of the stars, so as to prevent the stars from entering their mechanical civilization and reaching the core of their civilization. An entire civilization was messed up and specially prepared!
