Looking at the colorful treasure chest and the nine-square grid carousel in his mind, Zhou Xing was slightly happy.
Time flies, and the last time I received a reward was thirteen years ago.
Now, the task is finally completed.
Zhou Xing took a deep breath and couldn't help but smile happily. Although the system will release the next task soon, he has passed another level, right
"Host, mission reward: a colorful treasure box and a Nine Palace Roulette draw. Please draw as soon as possible. Overdue rewards will be forfeited." The system urged Zhou Xingdao.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing immediately reached out and opened the colorful treasure box.
"Host, you open the colorful treasure box and gain A-level ability improvement. The brain development level increases by 4.9%. IQ +45. You gain additional states: visual thinking and inspired thinking." The colorful treasure box opened and the system's voice spoke in Zhou Xing's voice. rang in my mind.
With a "boom", Zhou Xing felt a sudden pain in his head, and then, many clueless questions began to have directions for their thoughts.
Quantum entanglement, particle wormholes, cosmic explosions…
"Host, your brain development level has exceeded 20%. Brain thinking consumes more energy. Please be careful not to overthink." The system reminded Zhou Xingdao.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing came out of deep thought and his headache eased slightly.
When engaging in scientific research, it is common to use your brain to think. How can you continue to engage in scientific research if such a negative state occurs
Zhou Xing asked nervously: "How could this happen? What should I do in the future?"
"Host, you can increase energy intake, supply brain consumption, control thinking time, and let the body slowly adapt to this negative impact." The system reminded Zhou Xingdao.
Zhou Xing's expression changed, and he asked calmly: "This adaptation process will take a long time, right? Isn't there a better way?"
The operating mechanism of the human body system is countless times more complex than that of a computer system. Once you have to adapt to certain physical changes, it will definitely take a long time. Just like the life-extending genetic medicine, it takes 12 years to adapt to the full effect of the medicine.
"Host, you can use your contribution points to exchange for the formula of 'Awakening Agent' to reduce the impact of negative status." The system reminded Zhou Xingdao.
"Redeem the 'brain-refreshing agent' formula?" Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment, then looked at the attribute panel.
Big scientist auxiliary system:

Title rating: Great Scientist (beginner) (Congratulations to the host, you have officially become a great scientist, but you are only a junior. There is still a long way to go before becoming the top great scientist. There is still a long way to go. Host, please keep it up!)
Current reputation value: 75.49 million
Contribution value: 5.9967 billion/8.0672 billion
…
Unconsciously, the contribution value on the panel was close to 6 billion, and the population behind it had exceeded 8 billion. Seeing this set of numbers, Zhou Xing suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
After the advent of life-extending gene products, the number of global deaths dropped sharply. However, 50-80 million newborns are born in human society every year. In a few years, the global population will exceed 10 billion, and the earth will soon be supported by the ever-expanding human population. Explosion, the establishment of space colonies is imminent.
"System, how many contribution points are needed for the 'Awakening Agent' formula? Open the exchange warehouse!" Zhou Xing ordered the system.
"Understood!" the system responded.
Immediately, a redemption message appeared in front of Zhou Xing.
"'Brain-refreshing agent' formula, efficacy: targeted supply of energy, increase activity of human brain cells... Redemption value: 50 million contribution value."
"It's 50 million! Change it!" Zhou Xing said boldly with a wave of his hand.
"Okay!" the system responded, and immediately, the formula for making the "brain-refreshing potion" and how to take it appeared in Zhou Xing's mind.
Zhou Xing couldn't help but close his eyes and read the content of the formula. It used some medicinal plants and several refining methods. The refining was not difficult.
Zhou Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and then became curious about the items in the system contribution exchange warehouse.
Contribution value is one of the conditions that must be met to upgrade the mid-level great scientist. The demand is huge at 20 billion. However, the human population is now only a little over 8 billion, which means that he has to wait until the human population reaches 20 billion to upgrade the mid-level great scientist. , it takes a long time.
Therefore, now these 6 billion contribution values can be exchanged for items.
"System, I want to exchange for other items, please give me a list of exchanges." Zhou Xing's eyes lit up.
"Host, you still have rewards to claim, do you want to give up?" the system reminded Zhou Xingdao.
"Of course not, I'll get it right away." Zhou Xing's expression tightened and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to turn the lottery wheel in front of him.
The nine-square grid turntable was spinning, and the red pointer quickly froze on the pattern of a "silver planet".
"Congratulations to the host, you have obtained the qualification to enter the system's celestial evolution room! Evolution authority level: B level. Please work hard to complete system tasks and upgrade your evolution authority as soon as possible!"
"Celestial evolution room? What is it used for?"
Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment. According to the literal interpretation, could it be related to the study of astronomical stars
"Host, please explore the virtual room function by yourself. The next task has been assigned, please check it in time." The system said in an unchanging tone.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing's expression turned gray. As soon as he completed the task, the joy of receiving the reward disappeared.
What kind of problems did the system throw at him this time? Zhou Xing looked sternly at the system task panel.
"SS main mission: The great discovery of the universe. Mission completion conditions: Explore one or more great cosmic discoveries that change the understanding of the human world. Mission period: 10 years. Mission reward: One colorful treasure box and one mysterious gift box. Mission failed Penalty: 50% deduction for affected items.”
(Task tip: Host, under your leadership, human civilization has entered the intermediate level of planetary civilization. However, human civilization’s understanding of the universe is still stuck in the last century. Now as a great scientist, you must change this situation. Tell them the truth quickly!)
The penalty for failure is another 50% deduction on the affected target
After reading the mission information, Zhou Xing's expression changed drastically, and he asked the system in a voiceless voice: "Why is it an SS-level mission difficulty again? Why is it like this?"
"Host, you still have a long way to go before becoming a top scientist. You shouldn't have such thoughts." The system reminded Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing couldn't help but feel angry. If it weren't for worrying about the punishment for failing the mission, would he need to care about the difficulty of the mission
"Host, the exchange list has been opened, please check it." As if afraid that Zhou Xing would be burdened, the system reminded him.
Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment and looked at the redemption list.
"High-energy particle cannon design drawing: 240 million contribution value."
"KI titanium alloy smelting formula: 170 million contribution value."
"Garbage disposal agent formula: 350 million contribution value."
“…”
The dense list lists various pharmaceutical formulas, equipment design drawings, metal material smelting formulas... and other exchange items, covering various fields.
Zhou Xing's eyes shone, and he was filled with surprise. It turned out that there was such a valuable thing hidden in the exchange warehouse that he had been ignoring.
Is using this contribution warehouse the right way to complete system tasks
Zhou Xing's face was full of annoyance. He had been "addicted" to scientific research, which led him to forget about the "contribution value exchange" function of the system, and he almost accumulated all the contribution points.
After not seeing any movement from Zhou Xing for a long time, the system asked: "Host, which item do you want to redeem?"
Zhou Xing stopped blindly checking and asked the system excitedly: "Is there any equipment design drawing for the 'Space-time Wormhole'?"
"Yes." The system responded.
Immediately, the exchange list in front of Zhou Xing changed, and a list of equipment recipes related to the "Space-Time Wormhole" appeared.
"Space tunnel machine construction plan: 15 billion contribution value."
"Anti-matter 'tunnel' starter manufacturing diagram: 100 billion contribution value."
"'Gateway to the Multidimensional Universe' design: 5 trillion contribution value."
“…”
All kinds of equipment manufacturing drawings related to the "space-time wormhole" are presented.
Zhou Xing's eyes bulged, and the expression on his face was first happy, then bitter, and full of sadness.
The exchange price for the equipment design drawings related to the "Space-time Wormhole" was too expensive. Even the lowest value space tunnel machine could not be exchanged for him.
"Aren't there cheaper ones? The value of these design drawings is beyond what I can accept." Zhou Xing asked the system with a grimace.
"Host, please select the equipped data to redeem. The contribution system is to reward your contribution to human civilization. You cannot rely too much on it." The system replied in an unchanging tone.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing looked startled, and then he figured out something.
The exchange items provided by the contribution exchange system are all data-type information. Even if he spends a huge amount of contribution points to redeem it, it is still unclear whether it can be created with the technology and technology possessed by human civilization, so he cannot blindly pursue those For high-tech materials, you should choose appropriate materials that can help and promote you.
"System, re-select the exchange materials. I want to exchange them for theoretical information related to the 'space-time wormhole'." Zhou Xing straightened his face and gave the order to the system again.
"Understood, the supply list has been changed, please check it." The system immediately replied.
Zhou Xing stared at the refreshed exchange list, his eyes lit up.
"'Distorted Time and Space' is written by Miki, with a contribution value of 1.5 billion."
"'Legacy of the Big Bang' by Lowry, 2.1 billion contribution value."
"'Eighteen Essays on Safely Passing through Space-Time Tunnels' written by Gemu, with a contribution value of 4.7 billion."
“…”
A variety of theories related to "space-time wormholes" appeared in Zhou Xing's eyes. Judging from the title and "author name", the weight of each theory is very important.
Zhou Xing's eyes were blazing, and his hands were urging him. He couldn't decide which theory to exchange for the moment.
In the redemption list, the lowest theory has a contribution value of 1.5 billion. If the problem cannot be solved by redeeming it, then you have to continue to redeem it, which is a huge waste of contribution value.
If you choose the one with the highest value, you can only choose "Eighteen Theory of Safe Passage through Space Tunnels", but the name of this theory is too simple, and the price is also very high. After the redemption, there is not much contribution value left, which is not enough Change to something else.
"Host, please choose the item you want to redeem." Seeing that Zhou Xing was still unable to make a decision, the system urged.
"I hope this simple title can be unusual! 4.7 billion!"
Faced with the system's urging, Zhou Xing gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "System, help me redeem the 'Eighteen Essays on Safely Passing the Time and Space Tunnel'."
"Okay, host, the exchange is complete, and your contribution value has been deducted by 4.7 billion." The system confirmed.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing glanced at the panel and found that the contribution value had indeed dropped by 4.7 billion points.
Zhou Xing looked anxious and asked the system in confusion: "Where is the paper? The contribution value has been deducted, so where is the paper?"
"Host, 'Eighteen Essays on Safe Passing through Space-Time Tunnels' has been placed on the desk in the library, please pay attention." The system replied to Zhou Xing.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he had been tricked by the system!
"Host, do you want to exchange for other materials?" the system asked Zhou Xingdao.
The paper was in the library. Zhou Xingna was still interested in staying with the system. He couldn't wait to say: "No, no, send me to the library quickly."
"Understood!" the system responded.
Immediately, Zhou Xing's eyesight changed, and rows of giant bookshelves came into view.
Zhou Xing's eyes were caught by the big desk, and a thick tome was neatly placed in the center of the desk.
Zhou Xing looked happy and went straight to the big desk. He couldn't wait to sit down, picked up the book and started reading.
Soon, Zhou Xing's entire mind was immersed in the book and he was absorbed in it.
The Eighteen Essays on Safely Passing the Space-Time Tunnel has an unpretentious name, but it is actually an article on space theory with a very profound amount of knowledge.
In human cognition, the universe is a parallel time and space. There are no overlapping connections between different universes. They do not interfere with each other. They are just the result of the joint action of time and space.
However, another point of view is pointed out at the beginning of the book. Everything in the universe is attracted to each other by gravitation, and when the magnitude of the force is different, relative space-time distortion will occur, breaking space-time into several Unrelated and ordinary time and space.
The product produced by the system is relatively high-quality, not to mention the theoretical data exchanged for 4.7 billion contribution points.
Soon, Zhou Xing fell into the book, his eyes became brighter and brighter as he read, and he looked happy.
After system rewards, brain development, and an IQ of up to 320 points, Zhou Xing understood the content described in the book at a glance and understood it at a glance, absorbing the knowledge in the book like a sponge.
