Chapter 124: The Power of the Particle Black Holel i

“Who can stop me?!”
“Hahahaha!!”
On Shuttle number 10, the crew was laughing wildly.
In just one hour, they had broken through dozens of blockades, enduring billions of attacks.
“Report, within a million kilometer radius, there are still over three thousand warships trying to form a blockade…”
“Where is the safe gap?”
“X6614-Y3577-Z4329-T6OS…”
On the screen, a dotted line representing a simulated trajectory appeared. It connected the current position with the coordinates expected in 30 seconds.
In the universe, warships commonly used their resident galaxy as a reference, setting the XYZ axis to represent three dimensions, with the time axis as an aid for navigation.
“Let’s head in this direction!”
Quickly, the shuttle turned and in just a minute, it crossed the blockade line again.
“Haha, awesome!”
“I’ve never been so carefree in my life!”
In the first two star wars, they either won by pushing the enemy slowly with their slightly superior technology, or dominated completely.
In those battles, their shuttle was auxiliary, unlike this time where it has become the main force. Although they would die if the earth explodes, the idea of blowing up a planet, burying billions of beings with them, was simply thrilling.
“The target has entered the predetermined trajectory…”
At the moon base, Zhao Yu was still nervously watching the screen, tracking Shuttle number 10’s position.
Uncle Da, on the other hand, was quite confident, smiling, “Our interception positions are all pre-calculated, even their optimal retreat route has been computed…”
In this kind of star war, the data was complicated and far beyond what the human brain could handle. Most of it relied on computers.
Thus, it was easy to calculate the trajectory. After all, the computer would definitely give the optimal route.
“Won’t they discover us?” Zhao Yu was still worried.
“They won’t!”
Uncle Da confidently said, “Our intercepting ships in various places are flying on another set of trajectories before entering the mission. Neither the time, the direction, nor the speed have any flaws…”
This was like a constantly changing password based on a time axis, three-dimensional coordinates, and ship speed. It was hard to spot any pattern.
Because before these passwords were combined, there was no pattern to follow. Even if they found a pattern, it would be useless.
The real exposure risk was when multiple codes were linked together, revealing a route to a comet.
But who could know the endpoint of Shuttle number 10 was a comet before it arrived?!
All people could see was Shuttle number 10 continuously breaking through blockades and racing towards the Earth.
Zhao Yu didn’t speak anymore, his eyes never leaving the screen. Every time the shuttle passed through a designated node, he would look at Uncle Da to confirm his composure. Only then would he feel slightly relieved.
“Commander, don’t worry too much. The trap I designed is based on the base’s supercomputer…”
Uncle Da bragged, “The enemy fleet’s flagship is nothing compared to our supercomputer. Even if their computing tech is 100 times or even 1000 times ours, they still won’t find anything…”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, his face relaxed a bit.
This was indeed an advantage for the defending side. Computers could be infinitely expanded, and their computing power far exceeded that of the attacking side.
Another five minutes passed. Shuttle number 10 was just one node away from the comet.
Zhao Yu became nervous again, while Uncle Da seemed quite relaxed.
On the screen, Shuttle number 10’s location and the simulated route of the key nodes were all marked. If the path of Shuttle number 10 coincides with the simulated route, it means that their plan has succeeded.
Time was ticking away, and Zhao Yu couldn’t help but sweat.
“3, 2,1…”
The moment the screen countdown ended, Shuttle number 10 crossed the key node. After a momentary jump, it indeed coincided with the virtual ship displayed on the simulated route.
“We did it!”
A smile appeared on Zhao Yu’s face as he turned to look at another gravitational wave detector.
According to the image display, half of the gravitational wave curve of Shuttle number 10 had disappeared, and the other half had fused with the comet’s gravitational wave, blending together like a shadow.
“Enemy attack—!”
Chaos erupted aboard Shuttle 10. Not far in front of them, a seemingly harmless comet suddenly launched another shuttle.
“Warning: Collision in 3 seconds…”
“Dodge it, quickly dodge!!”
“Warning: Collision in 2 seconds…”
The captain of Shuttle 10 pressed several buttons in succession, but there was no response. He understood: the computer couldn’t calculate an evasion path.
They were moving too fast. At this moment, there was no alternative but a collision.
“Damn, why is there a shuttle here?!”
“And how can it be so fast?!”
The crew hadn’t anticipated that the enemy would ambush them from the comet, or that they would exceed their predicted speed. After all, they had maintained a safe distance from the comet, a distance that should have been enough to react to the fastest possible enemy attack.
“Warning: Collision in 1 second…”
In the final second, a hint of regret flashed across the face of Shuttle 10’s captain.
“After all, we couldn’t blow up a planet…”
As he finished speaking, he looked at the approaching warship, like a beam of light rushing straight at them, and smashed the glass, pressing a blood-red button.
“Boom-!”
In an instant, a particle singularity collapse bomb was activated. Just as the other shuttle was about to collide, space-time collapsed, and a minuscule black hole suddenly appeared.
Without making a sound, Shuttle 10 vanished into it in the blink of an eye.
The oncoming shuttle, at this moment, seemed to have hit the pause button, frozen in place. The next second, it too disappeared into the black hole.
“Buzz—!”
A strong suction force spread out, drawing all surrounding matter into it.
Not far away, a 55-kilometer-wide comet was frozen in time, and then, like a liquid water globe, it spiraled into the black hole.
Within a hundred thousand kilometers, everything was plunged into absolute darkness, with all matter, including light, unable to escape.
Just as this black hole was about to continue expanding, the force maintaining its shape seemed exhausted. With a “pop,” it disappeared in an instant, as if it had never existed.
Although the miniature black hole had vanished, its effects remained.
Layers of invisible gravitational waves, like ocean waves, rolled outwards.
Four hundred and fifty thousand kilometers away, over a hundred escort ships were speeding along when suddenly, an invisible force swept over them.
The entire universe seemed to have a filter applied to it, stretching and flattening the hundred-plus warships. Their hulls were whipped up and down, slithering like snakes.
Before the third wave of gravitational waves could hit, the ships couldn’t withstand the strain and shattered instantaneously into pieces of metallic debris.
In the blink of an eye, over a hundred warships, as hard as absolute zero ice, were completely destroyed, reduced to fragments.
Before exploding, Shuttle 10 activated a particle black hole bomb, which not only swallowed itself but also the shuttle that was about to hit it, the comet, and the hundred-plus escort ships that were hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.
