Dawn star.

2451 years of Earth Calendar.

Human civilization, immersed in antimatter experiments, naturally did not know what was happening in the center of the Milky Way.

It took a whole year and under the leadership of Lu Yongchang, the Academy of Sciences successfully established a series of theories on antimatter.

Once the theoretical foundation is laid, the next step is naturally the specific application.

Lu Yongchang has long been coveting the antimatter engines and antimatter weapons in the technology tree.

But there is also a huge problem that lies in it.

The manufacturing problem of antimatter.

With the manufacturing efficiency of laboratory, it is impossible for today's human civilization to use antimatter on a large scale.

There are two main reasons.

On the one hand, the consumption of manufacturing antimatter with the help of particle acceleration devices is too huge, which can be said to be a loss-making deal.

On the other hand, antimatter production is too low.

Compared with the Earth's era, humans are indeed countless times faster to create antimatter - one microgram of antihydrogen atom can be obtained in just one week.

However, this kind of manufacturing speed comparable to snail crawling is obviously not enough for humans who have long become a level 3 civilization.

Therefore, a new antimatter manufacturing solution is imminent!

The research goals of the people in the Academy of Sciences have also turned to this place.

However, this technology, which is located at the dividing line between level 3 civilization and level 4 civilization, is obviously not so easy to overcome.

...

After several setbacks.

Lu Yongchang sat in his office with a serious expression, pursing his lips at the hologram in front of him.

In the holographic image, dense experimental data are presented.

"Professor, the experiment failed."

Zero's electronic synthesizing sound came from the speakers beside them.

There was no big fluctuation on Lu Yongchang's face, but he just nodded slightly.

He has been tired of hearing this sentence during this period.

The Academy of Sciences has proposed many manufacturing solutions for anti-hydrogen atoms, but without exception, none of them meet Lu Yongchang's expectations.

"Professor, Academician Tao Yuda is here to visit."

The electronic synthesizer sounded again.

"Let him come in."

Lu Yongchang took a deep breath, cheered up and said.

The next moment, the office door opened, and Tao Yuda, who was standing at the door with an excited look on his face.

Looking at Tao Yuda's expression, Lu Yongchang's originally stable emotions fluctuated slightly.

Could it be...he has a new way of manufacturing?

Thinking of this, Lu Yongchang looked at Tao Yuda with a faint expectation.

"Professor, I have a way!"

Sure enough, Tao Yuda stepped into the office door excitedly and shouted loudly.

Lu Yongchang's heart beat a few times.

He suppressed his excitement, sat upright on the chair, and pointed to the seat in front of the desk.

"Sit first."

"Speak slowly."

Tao Yuda nodded in a hurry, pulled open the chair in a hurry, and sat opposite Lu Yongchang.

Then, he raised his wrist, opened his watch, and called out a small holographic projection.

Under Tao Yuda's operation, the content of the small holographic projection was quickly synchronized in front of Lu Yongchang.

"On the Feasibility Report of Antimatter Collection Devices"

"collect?"

Lu Yongchang's expression froze and asked subconsciously.

How does it feel...it's different from his expectations?

Tao Yuda cleared his throat: "Professor, although the universe is composed of matter, in a vacuum environment, there are still many antiprotons and antielectrons, mixed in cosmic rays and wandering in interstellar space."

"Since the efficiency of artificially manufacturing antimatter is too low, we can completely change our thinking."

"Make a large number of antimatter collection devices to collect antimatter in the universe."

Looking at the scheme in the holographic projection, the corners of my mouth twitched slightly.

How should he evaluate this report...

It is feasible, but not much.

Although there are many antiprotons and antielectrons in the universe, they are too thin.

If it is only collected near the Dawn Star, the results that took several years are not even as good as the output of a large satellite particle accelerator for full power operation in one month.

but!

After all, it is a business without a lot.

As long as the time is long and there are enough collection devices, humans will sooner or later collect enough antimatter in the universe.

"This...isn't this picking up rags?"

Lu Yongchang subconsciously asked, "Who can pick up rags in a serious and civilized way?"

Tao Yuda's mouth twitched: "..."

"How can this be said to be picking up rags?"

"How can you say that the third-level civilization is picking up rags..."

Tao Yuda's voice became lighter and lighter, and he was muttering obscure words such as antimatter collection arrays and ring star system detection arrays.

"Okay, okay." Lu Yongchang shook his head with a wry smile, "I won't talk about this plan for now."

"What humans currently need is a solution that can create antimatters with stable and efficient efficiency."

"We don't have that much time to collect antimatter that is free from the universe."

Even though he said that, he still put this option in the backup plan.

It can also act as a detector around the star system, and can also collect antimatter in interstellar space...

Most importantly, it doesn't consume much energy.

Three wins at one stroke.

It’s not too shabby to earn resources.

...

After seeing Tao Yuda off, Lu Yongchang took a deep breath again.

"Zero, close the door, no one is allowed to enter if there is no accident."

After learning from the last lesson, Lu Yongchang added a precondition to the order.

After all, he can't always expect the underlying logic code at zero, right?

As the words came to an end, the office door slowly closed.

After confirming it, Lu Yongchang leaned on the comfortable back of the chair and slowly closed his eyes.

At this point, he can only ask for help from the Technology Tree Space.

As soon as the mind moves, consciousness comes to that familiar space.

A fluorescent green background and a tech tree with bright white light.

Unlike the last time, after completing the construction of various antimatter theories, the originally barren scientific and technological tree in the first half also seemed full at this time.

Lu Yongchang raised his head and looked upwards.

White cursors came into view one after another, but none of them caught his attention.

A few seconds later.

His eyes were at the top of the third-level technology tree.

That is a dim cursor with a brightness of 50%.

【Anti-material mass production plan】

Looking at the clear font on the cursor, Lu Yongchang's consciousness body's "eye" became much more solemn.

Without any hesitation, he directly focused on the dim cursor.

A sensation of dizziness arises naturally.

What follows is a sense of clarity that is as detached as it is.

Various theories related to antimatter were integrated into Lu Yongchang's mind, and some original difficulties were quickly resolved.
