When deterring the chanical Disaster, the hydrogen bomb ships deployed near the star were not detonated, so Tom never truly witnessed the star’s reaction when subjected to massive external energy bombardnt.
Now, Tom truly witnessed it.
A heavy transport ship carried 50,000 hydrogen bombs; ten thousand ships ant 500 million hydrogen bombs
The total yield reached 500 quadrillion tons of TNT
And at this mont, these 500 quadrillion tons of TNT, under the desperate, suicidal charge of the hydrogen bomb ships, reached a point extrely close to the star, even less than a million kiloters—which could be considered deep within the star’s atmosphere—and then, at the sa ti, detonated with a thunderous roar.
Unparalleled high temperatures and shockwaves, as well as intense electromagnetic radiation, high-energy radiation, and more, simultaneously exploded within the atmosphere of Lyra G16.
The next mont, Tom saw the star suddenly brighten, increasing its luminosity by at least tenfold.
Previously, from the satellite of the Third Planet, the brightness of Lyra G16 was only comparable to that of a full moon. But now, as its brightness suddenly increased, the area instantly transford from night to day.
The entire star’s magnetic field was severely affected, and its internal convection also began to beco chaotic. In an instant, countless starspots erupted, and a large amount of stellar material was ejected into space due to the combined effects of various factors. An extrely violent stellar wind suddenly blew out, sweeping across the entire solar system with unparalleled force.
Such a unique and drastic change in brightness would almost certainly be observed by external observers, leading them to deduce that the star had been affected by so technological influence.
But at this mont, Tom no longer cared about that.
You Electromagnetic Creatures already caused such a huge commotion before; if it was going to be exposed, it would have been exposed long ago. Do I still care about this now?
I just want to destroy you now!
The drastic changes occurring on the star gradually subsided after a full year. At this mont, observing the star again, Tom saw that the biological markers created by the Electromagnetic Creatures had completely disappeared, no longer existing.
Phew...
Tom let out a soft breath.
Finally, this trouble is resolved. Next, I can finally develop technology without influence or interference and prepare for war.
But good tis don’t last long. Not long after, in less than two years, Tom was sowhat shocked to see that the biological features created by the Electromagnetic Creatures had reappeared on Lyra G16
Large, regular low-radiation and low-temperature zones reappeared on it, and the luminosity of different regions also showed regular changes, as if large areas of intelligent life cities had appeared on the star’s surface!
Damn it!
Tom cursed fiercely.
Soon after the biological features appeared, the laser-like attacks powered by the star reappeared, and Tom’s various constructions and interstellar transport were once again severely affected.
Tom knew that there was once an animal on Earth called a porcupine, covered in quills. Once attacked, it could shed its quills, transforming into "darts" to attack its opponents.
And now, this entire Lyra G16 star seed to have transford into a porcupine, with its "quills" continuously flying out, indiscriminately attacking every one of his ships and every space base!
Tom’s heart hardened, and his anger gradually accumulated.
"There’s no end to this, is there? You’re asking for death..."
If ten thousand hydrogen bomb ships and a yield of 500 quadrillion tons of TNT can’t get rid of you, then increase the dosage! Do it again!"
The production of giant hydrogen bombs is an extrely complex, precise, and resource-intensive task. Originally, producing 500 million hydrogen bombs, each with a yield of 1 billion tons of TNT, had already consud a significant portion of Tom’s industrial production capacity, but now, Tom unhesitatingly increased the stakes again.
This ti, Tom planned to produce 1.5 billion giant hydrogen bombs, build thirty thousand hydrogen bomb ships, and directly increase the intensity of the stellar cleansing to three tis that of the previous attempt!
It should be noted that the number of giant hydrogen bombs used to deter the chanical Disaster in the Pegasus V432 star system was only 1 billion.
And the mass of Lyra G16 at this mont is much smaller than that of Pegasus V432. The sa yield of hydrogen bombs would have a greater impact on it.
Tom diverted 10% of his industrial production capacity into the production of giant hydrogen bombs.
It wasn’t that Tom didn’t want to divert more, but technology research and developnt and other tasks also needed to proceed simultaneously and could not be delayed.
At this mont, Tom’s total industrial production capacity was at least 10 tis that of a conventional intelligent civilization at the sa technological level. 10% would be equivalent to at least one Strong Nuclear level conventional intelligent civilization mobilizing the entire civilization’s industrial production capacity to fully dedicate itself to the production of giant hydrogen bombs!
But even so, Tom still spent about 10 years to complete the relevant production.
Then, a full thirty thousand ships loaded with giant hydrogen bombs once again approached the edge of the star. Under Tom’s command, they once again adopted the sa suicidal attack mode as before, desperately rushing to a point less than a million kiloters from the star’s surface, and then detonated with a thunderous roar.
Thus, the skies of the various planets in the Lyra G16 Solar System brightened once again.
The star was like a lion that had been stabbed, its ferocity fully unleashed, roaring violently and wantonly unleashing its energy, which was capable of destroying heaven and earth.
This ti, it took a full two years or more for it to roughly regain its calm. And there were still clear residual stellar activities, which were expected to continue for at least a million years or more before fully returning to their previous levels.
But just as the star had roughly regained its calm, Tom saw that biological features had reappeared on it
Under this more potent cleansing, the recovery speed of those Electromagnetic Creatures was even faster than the last ti!
Before long, the star once again turned into a porcupine, attacking Tom’s various ships and facilities again.
This ti, Tom felt a bit of a headache.
"These things seem to have gained experience from being bombed; they’ve developed resistance..."
The effect of the hydrogen bomb cleansing is getting worse and worse. But besides hydrogen bomb cleansing, what else can I do?
Otherwise... let’s negotiate.
After all, this thing also has intelligence; maybe we can talk it out..."
Combining the information left by the Havilahs, Tom sent a ssage to Lyra G16 using the Havilah language, at a specific frequency and with the highest possible power.
"There are no fundantal contradictions or conflicts between our two sides.
