Super Mothership

"Boom boom boom!"

The dozens of high-power thruster groups installed at the root of the longevity were fully powered, pushing its huge body to continue to accelerate, leaving a long blue comet tail behind it.

Several high-power tractor beams shot straight at Proxima Centauri, exerting a huge tractive force on the Eternal One, and as the distance approached, the gravitational force of the star began to exert its might, like an invisible rope pulling the Eternal One's huge body closer to him... …

Although the channel Nie Yun chose for the immortal was thrilling, the acceleration effect was also proportional to the risk. With a propeller comparable to a planetary engine, the acceleration of the immortal would not be much slower than that of the flagship of the sea clan.

In fact, the longevity and the flagship of the sea clan have gradually parted ways in the middle, and the channels of the two have roughly kept hand in hand except for the angle of cutting into the stars.

After all, there is no need for the sea clan flagship to accept the ultimate test, and Nie Yun has no interest in testing the fire resistance performance of the sea clan spaceship...

At the moment, the image of the long-lived has changed greatly. Above the tree canopy in front, like a dead tree in spring, a large number of green leaves have only sprouted and stopped growing in just five or six hours.

At this time, the huge green umbrella cover has been fully formed, like a huge hat above the head, blocking the blazing stars in front of it.

Each of these newly grown green leaves is the size of a washbasin. If you observe it with a microscopic detection instrument, you will find that photosynthesis is going on inside them with amazing efficiency.

Moreover, the tiny diastolic pores on the surface of these leaves are still actively adsorbing free cosmic dust in space.

The vast outer space is not a complete vacuum. It is filled with various cosmic dusts with huge differences in composition and density. Professionally speaking, it is interstellar matter.

The composition of interstellar matter is very complex. A large portion are neutral hydrogen atoms, or hydrogen molecules.

In terms of density, there is an average of 1 atom in a cubic centimeter. If an ordinary Coke can is placed in space, there are about 330 atoms in it.

Hydrogen is not only the main fuel for nuclear fusion, but also an important raw material for photosynthesis to produce "water". It is an indispensable element for the longevity, a self-contained biological fortress.

And the huge canopy with a radius of hundreds of kilometers is like a big broom, sweeping away all the interstellar dust and particles along the way, and turning it into its own nutrients to completely absorb!

Although the density of matter is poor,

However, under the accumulation of sand into a tower, it is still not a small benefit to the material circulation in the longevity, and it can greatly extend the "lifetime" of the longevity.

...

Although the longevity is in dire straits outside the body, it is another world inside the body, full of vitality!

The old cells are eliminated and decomposed, and are gradually replaced by more powerful new cells. With the large consumption of the water of life, the tissue functions of the longevity become more and more perfect, and they begin to gradually adapt to the harsh cosmic environment.

The metabolic wastes produced by the nearly 2 million Kara people, together with various industrial wastes produced by the internal mechanized arsenal, are recycled again through the powerful digestive system of the Eternals, and become the nutrients and raw materials for the photosynthesis of the Eternals.

The oxygen produced by photosynthesis can not only meet the consumption of the longevity, but also can be used to maintain the internal ecosystem.

In the living space of the Kara civilization attached to the body of the longevity, the oxygen concentration is rising rapidly, just like the return of spring to the earth, the greenery grows rapidly, and in the eyes of all the Kara people, even the crops in the food base have grown a little higher. cut.

Then Nie Yun was stunned to discover that if it continued to develop like this, maybe even the ecological maintenance system could be closed, and this ecological space could be self-sufficient by directly relying on the biological cycle of the longevity itself!

Stars are the source of life. As the immortals keep approaching, the huge amount of light energy is rapidly being converted into various energy storage substances, which are circulated in the body in the form of chemical energy, providing energy for the daily activities of the immortals.

The abundant energy supply allows the immortals to gradually get rid of their dependence on internal mechanical energy, and begin to move their legs towards the evolution of truly complete cosmic life...

Sure enough, as the longevity said, the harsher the environment, the stronger the evolutionary effect of the water of life!

Become stronger! Still getting stronger!

If I had to use words to describe the feeling of the longevity at the moment, it would be... indulging in the pleasure of evolution and unable to extricate oneself!

But the happy evolution time is short...

Proxima Centauri, a red dwarf star in the main sequence stage, has only 1/8 the mass of the sun and 1/7 the volume of the sun. The internal hydrogen combustion is slow and stable, and its life span can reach tens of billions of years.

If it is likened to a pile of slowly burning charcoal, the sun is a violently burning torch.

Also because of the stable combustion and low radiation intensity, the habitable zone of the neighboring galaxy is only 7 million kilometers away from the star.

Kara star is in the habitable zone, and the distance from Proxima Centauri is only about 6.5 million kilometers, while the distance between the earth and the sun is 150 million kilometers, a difference of about 20 times.

In fact, it is precisely because Kara star is too close to the star that Kara star is completely "locked" by Proxima Centauri, just like the moon is locked by the earth, forcing Kara star to always "face" to the star.

According to the research data inside Gemini, maybe a long, long time ago, a massive celestial body collided with the Kara star, giving it a little rotational energy, which formed the unique spectacle of life on the Kara star today.

However, the rotation of Kara star is slowly disappearing in this lock. If there is no external interference, about a few hundred thousand years later, Kara star will completely stop its rotation and eventually become a death star!

On the cosmic scale, the distance of 6.5 million kilometers is really not that far away, so after two full days of voyage, the light of red stars has begun to gradually fill the vision of the longevity...

The warm and mellow sunlight began to become unbearably hot, and the leaves at the top were gradually roasted and slightly yellowed, and even the torso exposed to the sun began to turn black and carbonized.

Nie Yun's ultimate trial has entered the most dangerous stage!

...

"Boss, are you sure that this is a trial for me, not a piece of super coke or something?" The longevity asked in a vague way.

Although it is quite eager to evolve and become stronger, the exciting thing of hitting a star is such an exciting thing that it sounds like the tree is breaking out in cold sweat!

This is no longer shoulder-to-shoulder with the sun, but dancing directly next to the face, and the scale of playing is not ordinary!

"Is there any way, you are so big, and it takes so much effort to accelerate, so you have to be caught up and killed by the Yuzu fleet behind you before you can join my troops.

If you have the confidence to deal with the siege of more than fifty warships and countless mech fighters alone, then we will start a heroic counter-charge now! what do you think? "Nie Yun said lightly.

"Uh..." The longevity was speechless.

Completing the trial is a life-and-death experience, but if you turn around... that's a life-and-death situation!

What Nie Yun said was true. The mobility ability of the longevity was naturally not comparable to that of a battleship. The two sides were now racing like a tortoise and a hare, even if the tortoise had the first mover advantage, and the distance between the two was not short, but if the route was the same , there is still a risk of being caught up.

Isn't this extreme trial an extreme escape?

However, although Nie Yun looked like he didn't care, his hands were not slow. He not only extinguished all the energy furnaces, but also mobilized all the mechanical insects in the longevity's body, connecting the longevity's center with the Kara people. Several key core areas such as living space are protected.

With so many resources invested, if you can only get a piece of hunting coke in the end, it will be worthless.

At this moment, the immortal knows that this adventure is unavoidable, and he is also desperate to squeeze his potential. The water of life is consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As the distance gets closer, the Everlasting faces the star's canopy side, and the temperature begins to climb.

500℃...1000℃...1500℃...

The temperature of the magma is only 700~1200 ℃, and now it is only the stellar energy absorbed, which makes the longevity feel stretched for the first time...

It had to slowly close the crown of the tree above its head, like a giant green umbrella with its ribs closed.

In this way, while reducing the area of ​​sunlight exposure, it can also protect its trunk body with green shade parts with better heat resistance.

The distance to the star is still shrinking, the leaves of the immortal finally withered and curled up under the high temperature, and a small part began to burn.

But the layers of shade were burned away, and the longevity quickly grew another layer, but the color of the newly grown leaves became darker and darker, and finally turned dark green, and the surface even had a faint metallic luster!

The bark of the longevity has become denser and tougher, and the internal functional organs have become stronger and stronger, full of surging vitality, and it is still evolving...

Then, under the amazed eyes of the chasing soldiers behind him and Isaar, the Eternal One plunged into the outermost photosphere layer of the star along the tangent line with an indomitable momentum!

Really... Really got in? !

Under the severe radiation interference, the figure of the longevity completely disappeared from their optical detection field of vision...

Destruction breeds vitality, and the achievements are extraordinary!

And the longevity has undoubtedly ushered in its... "Crossing Tribulation" at this moment!
