Chapter 49: White Star

An even greater disaster is that as the other two stars rapidly approach, the temperature of the Trisolaran star rises sharply.

After more and more water is evaporated, it cannot return to the liquid state. Eventually, the entire Trisolaran star is wrapped in a massive amount of steam, and it looks like a white planet from the outside.

The temperature of the Trisolaran star continues to rise. This is not like the chaotic times that the Trisolaran star usually encounters. The massive water vapor retains the high temperature and allows the high temperature to rise step by step.

The temperature of the steam has reached several hundred degrees, and the color of the steam has quickly changed from white to colorless.

Seen from space, the entire Trisolaris star looks as moist as water.

However, no life can be seen on the ground. Water vapor of several hundred degrees is pervasive, and it will be completely steamed even if it is sprayed once, let alone being exposed to the steam for a long time.

After the intense high temperature, Trisolaris was lucky enough to escape from the clutches of three stars shining from three sides, and the water vapor lasted for a long time before gradually cooling down.

Then came the heavy rain, which turned into blizzard, and the water on the ground began to freeze over large areas.

In this way, a white planet was born.

The "dawn zone" that symbolizes vitality has long since disappeared, leaving only the white silence, as if to "show mourning" for this wave of civilization.

Jiang Yu and Yang Dong stared at the Trisolaran star in front of them for a long time. They did not expect that the Trisolaran star that already owned the space city was as fragile as a newborn baby in front of the three stars.

Human efforts are always so insignificant in the face of the power of the universe.

Yang Dong seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately found the space city that had been rotating around the Trisolaran star.

The braking system of this space city is not very strong, but under the protection of the planet, the damage to the space city is not very serious.

However, this space city is not a "generational space city" like the new space city. Previously, its fuel and food supplies came from the "dawn zone" of Trisolaris.

Now that Trisolaris is in trouble, it has quickly turned into a dead city because it consumed a large amount of fuel and was unable to supply the normal energy consumption of the space city.

Many aircraft taking off from the ground followed the space city and kept flying around Trisolaris.

There are no signs of life among them, the space city is completely paralyzed, and the only space resource reserve is gone.

These small spacecraft are ground-to-air vehicles with very limited fuel and supplies.

At the same time as the "steam disaster" on the surface of Trisolaris occurred, various aircraft could not replenish fuel, and the pilots had no food.

The Trisolarans who luckily escaped from the ground into space soon became dehydrated in their own aircraft.

This is a choice full of despair. This wave of civilization on Trisolaris has been destroyed, and we don’t know how many years it will take before they can be awakened.

I don't know if they can still be awakened after so many years and after staying in the coldness of the universe for so long.

The space cities and aircraft have become the satellite group of Trisolaris. It may be hundreds of thousands or millions of years before anyone sets foot on them again.

Yang Dong said: "This wave of civilization is not over yet."

Jiang Yu nodded. He was not as optimistic as Yang Dong, but he still adjusted his perspective to the location of the new space city.

After speeding up the game again, the new space city experienced several days of orbiting and finally reached the point where it was about to escape the gravity of the star.

All of a sudden, all the aerospace engines of the new space city were started, and the new space city became more eye-catching than the sun.

Finally, after half an hour of acceleration, the space city successfully escaped the gravity of the star behind it.

But while everyone was cheering, one star suddenly changed its trajectory under the influence of the gravity of the other two stars.

It was like "exploring my head and brain" to discover the existence of the new space city, and then gradually moved to the front of the new space city.

No matter Jiang Yu, Yang Dong, or the people in New Space City, they were silent.

The previous seventy-year Constant Era was only a blessing from these three stars.

At that time, the operating model of three stars was that two stars were entwined, and the third star was farther away, orbiting around the two entangled stars.

Fortunately, Trisolaris has been following the third star.

But not long ago, this pattern was broken, and the three stars were entangled again.

Then they revealed their ferocious faces, like man-eating beasts, killing all hopes of civilization.

Under the influence of the huge gravity of the star, the new space city struggled hard.

It turns out that the speed of the new space city has exceeded the speed of the third universe, which was originally good news for them to get rid of the star.

But now they are hitting the star at a speed faster than the speed of the third universe.

The intense deceleration caused the space city to become distorted and damaged, forcing it to slow down and stop.

New Space City, the technological crystallization of this wave of civilization, completely gave up struggling and flew towards the stars.

Yuchi Gong contacted Yang Dong again: "I'm glad to see you in my last moments.

"We made a huge mistake by making the space city too huge.

"Without a planet to help us stabilize our course, even a huge space city is just a boat floating on a stormy sea, and may be capsized by waves at any time.

"Future civilizations must not be able to build such a large space city anymore. It will consume too much energy to drive it!"

Yang Dong asked: "Is there no fuel in the space city?"

"Yes, but to no avail. The space city has been locked by the tidal force of the star in front. All attempts to change the course are in vain." Yuchi Gong said:

"The space city is like a big iron ball with too much mass, and the power of the engine can just allow the space city to reach the third cosmic speed.

"Now the speed of the space city has already exceeded this threshold, and all our deceleration methods are ineffective."

He paused before continuing: "At the beginning of the design of the space city, we thought that by reaching this speed, we could get rid of the nightmare caused by three stars.

"We are too naive to think that these three stars will give us a little chance to accelerate!"

Yuchi Gong sighed and added: "The nuclear mutation spacecraft is not suitable for the Trisolaran Galaxy. I hope that our future civilizations can learn from our lessons and do their best to develop spacecraft that can shuttle through the star system."

Yang Dong nodded: "On Trisolaris, the only way to escape is through interstellar escape."

After a few seconds of silence, Yu Chigong said again: "The inside of the spacecraft is getting hotter and hotter. It's time for me to set off with dignity."

After saying that, he broke off contact.

Two days later, the new space city, which had only circled half a circle around the star, fell into the star, like a drop of rain falling into the sea, causing only tiny ripples.

On the huge star, a line of red words appeared:

[Civilization No. 193 was destroyed in the Era of Chaos. This civilization continued the idea of ​​​​Escape from the Trisolaris Galaxy of Civilization No. 192 and evolved to the level of space civilization, providing valuable lessons for subsequent civilizations. 】
