Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 410: Stellar Surgery

On the planet Tavira, in Underground City Number One, all the high-ranking officials of the civilization were gathered. The atmosphere in the conference room was so heavy it felt like it had been completely saturated with mercury.

Everyone was waiting with anticipation, anxiety, and fear for the final judgment of fate to arrive.

People would subconsciously look up at the large screen every few seconds, and when they saw no information had been transmitted back, they would lower their heads and try to think about other problems. But no problem could be thought about for more than five seconds; within five seconds, they would always be unable to resist looking up at the large screen again, and then repeat the process.

In the anxious wait, finally, the slight noise that had been in the conference room instantly disappeared, as if the pause button had been pressed. In this slightly strange silence, those who had been looking down also seemed to sense something and raised their heads.

The unknown advanced civilization had replied to their message! And they had used their own script and language! At this moment, the content was displayed on the large screen!

At this moment, people seemed to forget to breathe, their full attention focused on those words.

"To the esteemed Supreme Leader ..."

People read the message carefully over and over again, their minds rapidly working.

The first thought that flashed through Supreme Leader Yashi’s mind was conspiracy.

But the next moment, after careful analysis by reason, Supreme Leader Yashi slowly realized... this was very likely not a conspiracy!

The reason was simple: they had already completely confirmed their inability to resist and had completely given up. Facing an opponent who had completely given up, did the enemy still need to deceive them?

It was like if they had captured a prisoner who had completely surrendered, told them everything without reservation, and cooperated fully with any of their demands. Would they still need to deceive him?

Wouldn’t that be redundant?

This advanced unknown civilization had absolutely no need to deceive them!

Then, then, everything they said was true?

Not only were they not a malicious civilization, but they could also help them treat their sick Sun?

If that were the case, the suffering their civilization had endured could finally end...

Supreme Leader Yashi breathed rapidly, feeling that his heart, which had long since died, was slowly recovering a little vitality.

A low cry spread through the large conference room. Supreme Leader Yashi walked to the podium, trembling, wanting to say something. He casually wiped his face and only then realized that tears were welling up in the corners of his eyes.

"Compatriots... things are not yet completely clear, and we still cannot rule out the possibility that this advanced civilization is still deceiving us for some unknown reason.

Based on this, this information does not need to be publicly announced to the civilization for the time being.

But at least, the possibility that this civilization is a benevolent civilization has greatly increased."

Struggling to suppress the excitement in his heart, Yashi forced himself to still view the matter from a relatively objective and rational perspective and made arrangements: "Next, our side must still maintain humility and respect, and obey any arrangements made by the Bluetoth Civilization."

The reply to this message, after thousands of deliberations and revisions, finally received the agreement of the vast majority of people.

A message was sent to the distant deep space. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"To the esteemed Bluetoth Civilization, we sincerely welcome your arrival with utmost humility and respect.

Whatever your needs, we will definitely do our best to fulfill them.

Thank you for your benevolence, thank you for your goodwill, thank you..."

Looking at the string of thanks, and the obvious caution revealed between the lines, for fear of using any word incorrectly and causing offense, Tom smiled and muttered to himself: "Don’t be so nervous, I’m not some man-eating monster.

But for now, there is no need to contact them again. Let’s get to work first. Only by seeing my actions can you truly believe in my goodwill."

Of course, before the real work began, there was still one thing to do, which was to develop a detection device based on the physiological characteristics of the Tavirans to check if they were infected by the Demonic Eye.

This was already Tom’s routine procedure before contacting unfamiliar civilizations.

After a secret inspection, confirming that the Tavira Civilization was a normal civilization, Tom completely lowered his guard.

His massive fleet finally entered the stellar system and headed straight for the sick star. During this process, all Tavira spacecraft avoided the route, unloaded all their weapons, and created a grand formation as if lining up to welcome them.

Tom’s fleet only stopped when it was only 10 million kilometers away from the star. Then the specialized probe ships, tens of thousands of them, all came closer to the star.

Endless light and heat surged forth, like a tide, engulfing all these probe ships. But based on more advanced Strong Nuclear material technology and specially developed micro-gravity control technology, these probe ships were not affected at all, even though they had penetrated the chromosphere of the star and reached the photosphere.

From the outside in, the stellar structure consists of the corona, chromosphere, photosphere, convection zone, radiation zone, and core.

The corona and chromosphere are invisible to the naked eye because they are too thin. The photosphere is the star’s "surface" visible to the naked eye.

Of course, although it is called a surface, it is not a solid, nor a liquid, nor a gas like a gas giant planet.

This is the fourth state of matter, plasma.

Endless high-temperature plasma gathers together, forming a vast "ocean," and there is no clear boundary between it and the other layers.

These probe ships that have entered the chromosphere are now like being in an ocean of light and heat. Up, down, left, right, front, and back, all are scorching and violent plasma.

Driven by the stellar magnetic field and convection, endless energy is released from here, tens of millions of times more violent than the most violent planetary ocean imaginable.

But in such turbulent waves, Tom’s probe ships were still strolling leisurely, as stable as a Mountain. Not only that, they even deliberately descended, stopping only after penetrating more than 10,000 kilometers into the chromosphere.

With tens of thousands of probe ships directly landing on or even inside the star’s surface, coupled with the gravitational wave detector, neutrino detector, and other detection tools located in the main fleet, Tom performed a comprehensive X-ray scan for this stellar "patient," and grasped its "condition" in a very short time.

This scene once again plunged Supreme Leader Yashi and other high-ranking officials of the Tavira Civilization, as well as a group of top scientists, into boundless shock.

"Directly sending probe ships to dive into the stellar material for detection?"

"Tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, such violent stellar radiation, doesn’t affect these probe ships?"

"Even probe ships have such performance, then, what about their warships?"

"The technology of this civilization is so advanced, and its combat power is so strong, far exceeding our imagination..."

At this moment, even the most violent and crazy warmongers could not generate any thought of resistance.

Supreme Leader Yashi even felt a little fortunate at this moment, fortunate that they had adopted the most respectful and humble attitude when communicating with the Bluetoth Civilization for the first time.

...

Around the star, Tom had completely completed the preliminary inspection work and began to formulate a treatment plan.

The overall treatment plan was still mainly "minimally invasive," just like treating a human body, where only a small hole is made on the surface to treat the internal condition.

This could ensure the minimum impact on the overall star.

Of course, even the smallest impact is relative to a star. On the outside, there will still be short-term radiation surges of more than ten times, which are still enough to wipe out a primitive or even electromagnetic civilization, and even civilizations in the early Electroweak period would be severely damaged.

Fortunately, the Tavira Civilization was a Strong Nuclear Civilization, so there was no need to worry too much.

Tom still issued a warning, reminding the Tavira Civilization to take precautions in advance. So Tom saw the numerous Tavira spacecraft flying towards the gas giant planet farther away from the star as if fleeing for their lives. The life planet also lit up with an energy shield sufficient to cover the entire globe, all factories and cities were sealed, and all the population entered the major underground cities.

After the Tavira Civilization was ready, this stellar "minimally invasive surgery" began to be officially executed.

The various components of the Universal Force Field began to appear again, arranged at a distance of about 10 million kilometers from the star. The corresponding energy ships, supercomputing ships, etc., also arrived one by one.

Tom thought it was a bit uneconomical to scrap this set of Universal Force Field devices, which he had accumulated over hundreds of years, just to help the Tavira Civilization treat this star.

This time the Universal Force Field was activated, Tom set the energy to 40% of the limit energy burst.

In a battlefield, such a large reduction in energy would likely lead to a sharp drop in killing power to below 10\% of the original killing power, and not even a large target could be destroyed. But this could at least ensure that the Universal Force Field components would not be overloaded and explode, and could be reused.

Besides, the target this time was a star, not a warship, and a 40% energy burst was probably enough.

Similarly, this time it did not involve life intelligence, so there was no need to sacrifice the lives of so many clones.

After the Universal Force Field components were laid out, Tom also dispatched more than 10,000 hydrogen bomb ships and gravity bomb ships to be planted in advance in the corresponding locations where the minimally invasive surgery on the star was to be performed.

In addition, the Electromagnetic Life finally received Tom’s order after a long period of idleness.

Millions of Electromagnetic Life tumbled and rolled, and once again came to the star, staying in the chromosphere of the star.

"Stellar surgery, begin!"

Following Tom’s order, the Universal Force Field components operating at 40% power fired again, and endless helium nuclei, X and Y particles, like a surging torrent, rushed towards the designated area of the star.

As these particles arrived, the hydrogen bomb and gravity bomb ships planted in advance inside the star also detonated simultaneously.

The Electromagnetic Life in the higher chromosphere also exerted their force simultaneously, gathering the stellar energy in the chromosphere in a way that would not cause casualties to themselves, and injecting this energy into the same area in the form of a weakened version of a Stellar Cannon.

With energy injected from three sides simultaneously, in this area that only occupied one sixteen millionth of the star’s surface, about 300,000 square kilometers, all the stellar material instantly churned simultaneously.

The temperature rapidly increased, the pressure suddenly increased, and the radiation suddenly became violent.

From a distance, it looked like a small bright spot suddenly appeared on the star.

The changes occurring here suddenly spread throughout the entire star, and soon after, the entire star brightened up.

This was only the externally visible effect. Inside the star, in places invisible to people, a series of effects were constantly occurring.

This burst of energy from the shallow surface of the star would normally never affect the interior of the star. But this area was specifically chosen by Tom after precise observation of the star’s internal activity. Thus, this energy, with the help of the star’s own internal convection, radiation, and magnetic field changes, acted like a sharp and precise surgical knife, directly penetrating the star’s thick outer layer and reaching the interior at an extremely fast speed, precisely transmitting to the "tumor" located in the star’s core.

It was like a surgeon using laparoscopic technology, extending surgical instruments precisely to the patient’s internal organs through a small hole made in the patient’s abdomen.

The purpose of surgical instruments is to remove lesions. The energy applied by Tom through various means at this moment was like a heavy hammer blow, violently dispersing that "tumor" in an instant.

The stellar internal convection then transported these dispersed heavy elements to other parts of the star, preventing them from appearing as a whole and no longer affecting the overall operation of the star.

And Tom precisely observed the flow of those heavy elements through neutrino and gravitational wave telescopes, just like a surgeon checking their surgical results with X-ray equipment.

Neutrinos are extremely sensitive to changes in the temperature and pressure inside the star. With even slight fluctuations, their number and energy will change dramatically.

Gravitational waves can precisely describe their trajectories. Combined, the observation effect is even better than the X-rays used by patients.

Tom observed in this way for a full ten days.

During these ten days, the overall radiation power of the star was constantly climbing, and finally reached a peak of 10 times the normal radiation. Then the peak passed and began to slowly decline.

Tom breathed a sigh of relief.

This stellar surgery was finally completed.

Just as a patient needs to recover after surgery, so does this star.

It is estimated that it will take about 100 years for this star to completely recover its "health," and its overall radiation power will also decrease to a normal state.

By then, the climate on the life planet that nurtured the Tavira Civilization will also return to normal.

Ice and snow will melt, deserts will receive precipitation, lakes and oceans will reappear with rippling waves, and mountains and grasslands will be covered with lush vegetation again.

"Your star has been cured by me."

Facing the countless spacecraft of the Tavira Civilization, Tom solemnly announced.
