Chapter 1594: Sacrifice

“Is it here already?”

“I see.”

Jiang Chen ended the communication.

Just two minutes ago, Harmony’s fleet arrived at the synchronous orbit of Mars. Perhaps in a mere hour, the space colonization ship the size of the Moon would pass by this place. He was no god, just a mere mortal. In any case, there was no way to preserve Heavenly Palace City.

After he gave it some thought, those people…when they were still human, they were much stronger than their compatriots living on Earth now.

Solar flares, tidal locking, mutants ravishing…

The fact that they rose to greatness from that environment already explained a lot of the problems.

They made sacrifices of being human, chose to merge with unknown genes, armed their weakest part, and continued their civilization on a planet where the electronics industry did not work. Although he did not agree with their approach, their determination was indeed respectable.

If he was not willing to sacrifice anything, he was doomed to get nothing.

He knew better than anyone else the value of this planet to the Earth civilization.

But if he did not do this, the fact that if the Earth civilization could continue on was in jeopardy.

“This kind of struggle is meaningless.” Golovin I, who lied in a pool of blood, said in a hoarse voice, “Even if you destroy this colonization ship…there will be another one.”

Cracks were visible on the pipes around the place. From the chaotic aftermath of this battlefield, it was easy to deduce the fierceness of the battle.

There was a knife cut across the waist left by a sharp blade. Although the carbon nanosuit was made out of memory material that quickly repaired the cut, the large amount of blood loss and the cut that was difficult to heal pushed him to the last of his breath.

As for Lilith…

Half of her body had been destroyed by laser weapons. But since her main body was not in this world, no matter how many bodies she destroyed, Lin Lin and her sisters would always have a way to build a more convenient one for her.

“That’s also something that’ll happen a century later,” Jiang Chen shrugged as he responded to Golovin I’s question, then he looked at the emotionless Lilith on the ground, nodded, and said softly, “Thank you.”

Lilith blinked as if she asked, “Did I do well?”

“The gap between you is more than a century.” A big mouthful of blood gushed out from Golovin I’s mouth. He stared at Jiang Chen, with a rare trace of fear from deep inside his calm pupils, “Give up and we will take you. You can choose to disembark where you want to rebuild your home.”

“If you use simple addition and subtraction to measure the progress of civilization, then why are you lying at my feet now, and not the other way around?” Jiang Chen glanced at Golovin I, who laid in a pool of blood, for the last time, turned around, and reached for the center of the pipes.

In the next instant, the planetary furnace reappeared in its original position.

“If you don’t give up anything, you won’t get anything.”

As he muttered those words silently in his mind, Jiang Chen took out the gift that had been given to him by the void from the storage dimension.

One gram of antimatter…

But there should be one kilogram now.

The real difficulty in preparing antimatter was not the production, but storage. Even to this day, Lin Lin was unable to come up with a better solution. Although she could manufacture a larger magnetic confinement device to store as much antimatter as possible, the figure was unable to break through the unit of grams. Later on, because of the poor stability of the magnetic confinement device, it was too dangerous to continue research on the surface. The neutrino technology solved the problem of the portal, so Lin Lin simply suspended this unrealistic research project.

Therefore, even if the main engine of the Earth Fleet was replaced with the warp engine, the energy core was still the second-generation nuclear fusion generator.

Now that he thought about it, maybe their intention was not for him to develop antimatter storage technology with such a large technological span.

The faint blue magnetic confinement body was filled with bright blue light, as it shined like an incandescent light bulb.

This magnetic confinement device was shaped like an hourglass, although it only stored one gram of antimatter, its storage limit was one kilogram…

Perhaps the antimatter that was originally sent to this world was one kilogram.

It was just that, nine hundred and ninety-nine grams of it were consumed on the way here.

His left hand was pressed against the place where Golovin I had previously pressed, as he focused his consciousness on his palm.

After a while, a familiar “voice” came from deep in his mind.

[…Stop it]

[…]

[The inheritance that we have spent tens of thousands of years to create, billions of years to preserve, and now you want to destroy them all?]

[…]

[After we die, no one will remember you again. ]

The consciousness lodged on the planetary furnace fell silent.

After a long time, a circular inlet slowly opened on the side of the metal spherical shell.

Through the film-like interface, Jiang Chen could see the mercury-like liquid flowing slowly inside.

It should be the unformed strong interaction material, which was disassembled into quark masses…

When the metal spherical shell opened, there was a plea in Golovin I’s eyes.

“I beg you to stop…”

“I’m sorry.” With a sigh, Jiang Chen stuffed the magnetic confinement device that shined like an incandescent lamp into the inlet of the planetary furnace.

…

The battle began.

The rain of missiles, bullets, and lasers all over the universe was like stardust that decorated the black canvas.

Almost as soon as it observed these worm ships, the Svetovid immediately turned all their weapons and unleashed their firepower on the bugs.

At this moment, the Svetovid, which had wandered in deep space for many years, finally unveiled its hidden power.

The azure blue laser bombs fused together in the gloomy universe. The hit spitters died in large chunks, and the hit worm ships were splattered with blood. The mass projectiles, along with meteorites and asteroids formed a torrent of metal in the dim outer space.

A fleeing Seagull-class transport ship was hit by a Klein particle ray, and the engine was instantly extinguished before a worm ship bit onto its side. Another two worm ships collided into the spaceport and the space elevator respectively. Amidst the screams of one after another, poisonous spore mists, tentacles, and mutated soldiers were released into the spaceport.

Celestial Trade soldiers stationed on the spaceport engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the mutated soldiers released by the bug ship. However, the resistance did not last long. Under the poisonous spore mists, the mutated soldiers were almost invincible.

Even if their hands and feet were blown up by rockets, the hideous wounds would heal quickly in the poisonous spore mists.

And the ordinary people who inhaled the poisonous spore mists quickly became the living dead…
