"Commander, what are your plans?" Professor Smith looked at Zhou Yu in confusion.
"The action of contacting the exploration spacecraft is suspended. This time we have obtained a large amount of technology from the Mu Xing clan. We will digest it for a while. During this time, everyone will come up with a sound strategy. We must ensure that after contacting the exploration spacecraft, we will not be Super civilization discovered!" Zhou Yu looked at the professors and said solemnly.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhou Yu's ideals defeated his sensibility, suppressed his urgency to return, and took the lead in considering the safety of human civilization.
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces.
Zhou Yu's arrangement is the most conscientious manifestation of his responsibility as the head of human civilization.
"Yes, Commander!" Everyone accepted the order, feeling happy and sad. For those humans born in this universe, they were delighted with Zhou Yu's decision.
Human civilization has survived in this universe for more than two hundred years. Only a very small number of humans from the earth have nostalgia for their home planet. As for humans born in this universe, apart from the knowledge gained from textbooks and movies and TV shows, The work shows that the vast majority of people have no feelings for the Earth’s mother planet at all, let alone miss it. What’s more, they are asked to take huge risks and go far away from their homes to an unknown and distant “mother star”. To them, it is a great injustice.
"That's it! Everyone go down and do your work!" Zhou Yu nodded and looked after everyone.
Everyone happily accepted the order and exited the command room one after another.
Looking at the backs of everyone leaving the command room, Zhou Yu sighed heavily. He even wanted to call everyone back and revise his order again.
The road back is close at hand.
After more than two hundred years of thinking day and night, Zhou Yu would definitely be willing to risk everything if it weren't for the experience of being the top leader in power over the years.
"Xiao Zhi, you should be homesick too!" Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and asked with a wry smile.
"Well! I don't know how the boss is doing now! To what extent has the human civilization of Earth's mother planet developed under his leadership? He must have done a lot of work to find us!" Zhou Xiaozhi nodded, with a look of nostalgia on his face. say.
Although the current Zhou Xiaozhi is just a clone, like the original Zhou Xiaozhi, it has the experience of spending time in the virtual experiment with Zhou Xing, studying together, and growing together. Therefore, when Zhou Yu mentioned Zhou Xing, Zhou Xiaozhi immediately It's full of nostalgia.
"Yes! I don't know how dad is doing now. With his existence, the technological progress of human civilization should be rapid!" Zhou Yu said with emotion after a slight pause.
More than two hundred years have passed, and the sea has turned into a mulberry field.
With his father's research and development capabilities, Zhou Yu really didn't dare to guess what human civilization would become under his leadership.
"Commander, we have obtained so many advanced technologies this time, and with the development of the biomechanical field, we should be no worse than the boss!" Zhou Xiaozhi looked at Zhou Yu and comforted him with a smile.
"Hopefully!" Zhou Yu smiled bitterly. They were spoiled for choice, and their research and development capabilities couldn't be compared to their father's perverted research power.
…
Soon, under the coordination and arrangement of Zhou Xiaozhi, human civilization began to fully accept the science and technology library of the Shepherd Clan. Professor Yang Yi valued the infinite proliferation technology, Professor Smith valued the Dyson sphere technology, and Professor Custer valued the gamma ray laser technology... Even half-finished stellar weapons continue to be developed.
Scientific and technological progress cannot be accomplished overnight. However, once a major breakthrough is made in a certain field, it will bring about subversive progress to the entire civilization.
The advanced civilization technology that the Mu Xing clan gained could not be fully utilized. After it fell into the hands of human civilization, with the help of Zhou Xiaozhi's calculation and derivation capabilities, scientists made a large number of breakthroughs and continuously improved the foundation of biomechanical civilization.
In the blink of an eye, a busy year has passed.
In the flagship command room, Zhou Yu sat in the command position, listening to the work reports of his subordinates.
Professor Custer looked at Zhou Yu and said first: "Commander, the gamma ray laser weapon project I am researching is being finalized!"
After a pause, Professor Custer continued: "The principle of gamma ray laser weapons uses gamma rays (gamma particle flow) - rays released during the transition and transformation of atomic nuclear energy levels. They are electromagnetic waves with a wavelength shorter than 0.2 Angstroms. Gamma rays have strong penetrating power and high energy, and have no charge or static mass, so they have weaker ionization ability than alpha particles and beta particles. Gamma rays can be stopped by nuclei with high atomic numbers... Its characteristics: The monochromaticity is excellent, the divergence is extremely small, and the brightness (power) can reach very high... Once equipped with this weapon, our naval guns will increase their attack power by 500% and their range by 300%."
"Laser propagates at the speed of light, and there is almost no warning time when hitting the target. Its charging time is very short. Gamma rays have strong penetrating power and high energy, and are powerfully destructive and lethal to the spacecraft's instruments and crew. Using electric charges Or a photon-excited laser consumes only energy, and if combined with the fusion engine of a spacecraft, it will become a very efficient interstellar weapon." Professor Custer smiled and finally concluded.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu's eyes lit up and he nodded in praise: "Not bad! Very good!"
Following the route of biomechanical civilization, the flexibility and defense of the ship body have been greatly increased. However, interstellar weapons have always been the shortcomings of the fleet. Now the birth of this kind of weapon will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the fleet.
"Commander, the project I am responsible for has also made a breakthrough. According to the technology provided by the data, high-energy particle beam weapons are fully ready for production!" Professor Xie Wu followed up.
Professor Xie Wu looked at Zhou Yu and introduced in detail: "High-energy particle beam weapons use accelerators to accelerate elementary particles such as electrons, protons and neutrons to high speeds of tens of thousands to 300,000 km/s, and form them through electrodes or magnetic beams. Very fine particle beams are emitted to bombard targets. Depending on whether the particles are charged or not, they can be divided into charged particle beam weapons and neutral particle beam weapons.
It mainly consists of five parts: particle beam generation device, energy system, early warning system, target tracking and targeting system, command and control system, and particle beam generation device, which mainly includes particle source, particle injector, accelerator and other equipment. It is the core part of the entire particle beam weapon system, used to generate high-energy particle beams and focus them into a narrow beam, so that it has sufficient energy and sufficient intensity... "
…
Following Professor Xie Wu's introduction, the large command screen showed the attack steps of the high-energy particle cannon. After a series of blessings, the thick high-energy particle beam cannon finally bombarded a simulated spacecraft, causing it to explode with a bang.
"Commander, high-energy particle blasts are different from gamma-ray lasers in that they are lacking in range. However, they can implement 'hard kill' by directly penetrating the target. The charged particle beam has extremely strong penetrating ability on the target and the energy is concentrated. The pulse emissivity is high and the emission direction can be changed quickly. The accelerator that generates the particle beam is very strong, and the accelerator and magnet are not affected by strong radiation. The energy transmitted to the target by the particle beam within the unit solid angle is greater than that of the laser, and it can penetrate deep into the target. Department." Professor Xie Wu introduced while looking at the command screen.
"Particle beam weapons may be limited to the size of their accelerators, and the number of deployments will be smaller than that of lasers and kinetic energy bombs. However, as a near-light speed weapon, its performance is still excellent, and it is still sufficient for near-ship protection. If it is densely packed with turrets and forms a large scale, it will be effective against incoming interstellar weapons." Artillery shells, in close combat, have excellent lethality." Professor Xie Wu finally concluded.
"Okay, very good! Our melee combat capabilities have also been greatly improved!" Zhou Yu nodded happily. In just over a year, they have achieved so much. It seems that his decision was not wrong.
"How is your research progress on stellar weapons?" Zhou Yu looked at Professor Lin Zhibin, the person in charge of the stellar weapons project, and asked.
Hearing this, Professor Lin Zhibin smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Commander, the field of 'tachyons' is too profound. This technology is beyond our current cognitive scope, let alone perfecting that stellar weapon."
"Well, if it doesn't work, forget it! Seal the information and transfer it to our father for processing!" Zhou Yu nodded in understanding and said with some disappointment.
Professor Lin Zhibin looked at Zhou Yu and introduced: "Commander, regarding the development of stellar weapons, we collectively suggest going in another direction and developing an 'aurora particle' emission technology to achieve the purpose of destroying stars."
"Huh?" Zhou Yu looked at Professor Lin Zhibin with confusion.
Professor Lin Zhibin looked at Zhou Yu and introduced in detail: "The principle of the emission technology of 'Aurora Particles' is very simple. According to E=mc2, small objects are accelerated to close to the speed of light, and with the help of its huge relativistic effect - in other words, close to the speed of light The huge mass produced when it hits the target star will cause the star to explode and destroy life in the galaxy."
"E=mc2 (mass-energy conversion formula or mass-energy equation) is a theoretical physics formula that explains the relationship between energy (E) and mass (m). C in the formula is a constant representing the speed of light in physics.
One conclusion derived from the special theory of relativity is that only matter with a rest mass of 0 can reach the speed of light (photons). When an object is accelerated to close to the speed of light, as the speed increases, its mass will actually increase, making further acceleration become Difficult, therefore, this technology requires extremely large amounts of energy! "
After a pause, Professor Lin Zhibin looked at Professor Smith and said: "The Dyson sphere project studied by Professor Smith can just meet the huge energy demand of this technology! If the two are combined, it can just meet the development requirements of stellar weapons."
Hearing this, Zhou Xing's eyes lit up and he turned to Professor Smith, waiting for his reply.
Facing everyone's gaze, Professor Smith smiled bitterly and quickly replied: "To create this Dyson sphere, the project is far larger and more complicated than we imagined. I am afraid that it will not be able to meet the energy supply of stellar weapons in a short time."
"The 'Dyson sphere' enveloping the star requires very large tensile strength and is susceptible to large drifts. The 'shell' of the Dyson sphere is composed of structures that orbit independently. It is about 10,000 kilometers thick and consists of 1x Composed of 10 5 objects, a 'Dyson sphere' can be composed of many different layouts of energy collectors near Hengxin. However, it is necessary to maintain a balance between gravity and the thrust of the solar wind, and to encapsulate the materials and materials required for each star. Matter, even if we hollow out all the planets in the entire galaxy, it will be difficult for us to obtain enough construction materials." Professor Smith introduced Zhou Yu in detail.
Hearing this, everyone fell into silence.
The "Dyson Sphere" seems to be a perfect solution to mankind's endless demand for energy, but a huge construction difficulty lies in front of everyone. The mass of a star often occupies more than 98% of the mass of the entire galaxy. The Dyson sphere is an instrument that wraps around stars and mines stellar energy. After a little calculation, the surface area of the "Dyson sphere" is large. amazing.
"Maybe I have a way to solve this problem!" At this moment, a voice suddenly broke the silence.
Hearing this, everyone looked towards the source of the sound, and it was Professor Yang Yi with a smile on his face.
"Lao Yang, what can you do? Go to the market and tell me, don't show off." Professor Lin Zhibin's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to ask.
"Infinite proliferation technology, Commander, if we fully develop this technology and use the unlimited growth of biological machinery, we may be able to build a 'Dyson sphere' that can surround the entire star!" Professor Yang Yi looked at Zhou Yu with a look on his face. With an eager expression.
"Infinite value-added technology relies on the division characteristics of biological cell growth under suitable environmental conditions to control the direction of division and proliferation, expand the number of divisions, change its activity, and integrate the expansion model of biomechanical civilization... to ultimately achieve unlimited proliferation. Target!" Professor Yang Yi looked at Zhou Yu and explained in detail.
After a pause, Professor Yang Yi continued to explain: "The infinite proliferation technology has been derived to 85%. After some modifications, it is very consistent with our biomechanical structures! As long as the energy absorption mode of general biomachines is changed, They can slowly absorb the energy of the star, use the energy and material emitted by the star, and the impacting asteroid will eventually slowly expand on its own, and eventually envelop the entire star." Professor Yang Yi looked at Zhou Yu and introduced in detail.
Zhou Yu's face was dull after hearing this, and he looked at Professor Yang Yi in surprise. He originally thought that stellar weapons were dead, but he didn't expect that after the professors combined these technologies, they actually integrated a manufacturing industry chain for stellar weapons.
"Okay, you just go ahead and try. I will let Xiaozhi fully assist you. If you need anything, just ask." Zhou Yu looked at everyone excitedly and ordered.
"Yes, Commander!" The professors looked at Zhou Yu and readily accepted the order.
The short meeting ended, and three major projects - stellar weapons, Dyson spheres, and infinite proliferation technology - were started at the same time and carried out collaboratively.
Taking this opportunity, human civilization led by Zhou Yu climbed to a higher level of technological civilization.
