Chapter 270 Cooperative Basic Atmosphere
Although the two galaxies of composite evolved humans and celestial beings are adjacent to each other, this does not mean that everything is very convenient. Without a hyperspace gravity engine, it is difficult for manned starships to cross the huge and desolate space between galaxies.
, even composite evolved humans can only rely on gravity ejection devices to launch small unmanned communication satellites to barely maintain information exchange.
"There are now two courier starships flying in from the home galaxy every day. The Evolver L starship is responsible for maintaining communication with us and updating battle situation information. We also launch courier starships to tell them the situation here," Captain Gas said.
Alex said: "There are no signs of the Natural Selection coming here yet. The elimination or transformation of composite evolved humans is their current main strategic goal. If you go back, you will most likely face an attack from the Natural Selection. Any
A missing hyperspace gravity engine could cause the war to completely spiral out of control."
The sudden third war of the natural selectors changed the entire atmosphere of the home galaxy. The composite evolved people themselves were unable to protect themselves, and other civilizations were frightened. When the composite evolved people and the natural selected people met, neither side would show mercy, and the evolved starship
Between them, battles between destroyers are devastating to ordinary planets, and no one wants to be the one affected.
Fortunately, the technological level of the composite evolutionists and the natural selectors is very high. They do not need to colonize other planets to obtain populations, and they also despise the low technological level and inefficiency. Whatever resources the two sides need in the war, they can mine them themselves. Such resource planets
Or there are not many civilization gathering places near the resource star belt, so there are currently less than ten civilizations that have been affected and destroyed. At the same time, both sides of the war realize that tactical destruction cannot be quickly transformed into strategic victory.
The three wars of the Natural Selections will inevitably develop into a protracted tug of war, and the Natural Selections believe that this situation will be more beneficial. Therefore, the current war situation in the home galaxy has eased, and both sides are working hard to accumulate strength and strive to achieve technological breakthroughs.
.
"With the hyperspace gravity engine you provided, we have gained an absolute advantage in interstellar navigation and have the ability to launch devastating raids on the Naturally Selected. The Naturally Selected are difficult to destroy, but they need to rely on starships to pose a threat."
Captain Gas asked: "Alex, in order to restore order to the home galaxy as soon as possible, can you provide more hyperspace gravity engines?"
Alex doesn't like composite evolved people, and he hates the Natural Selection. Compared with the two, he naturally prefers composite evolved people, but this does not mean that he must do his best to help composite evolved people.
Think about the attitude of the Composite Evolutionaries themselves. Regarding civilizations with backward technology, Composite Evolutionaries have never taught them anything, and they have never provided a path to ascend. At most, they can only issue a warning: Your path will lead to the danger of extinction, stop.
.For those who are obedient, the composite evolved people will return to the state of deaf-mute people; for those who are disobedient, the fighter strike group will completely wipe them out.
There are too many cases where post-technological civilizations ask for technical or equipment help from composite evolved people, and the help they successfully receive is basically zero. In those rare cases, such as the small help that composite evolved people provide to Li Xing, the main purpose is to beat them
The other party that possesses a certain kind of specific technology, such as the self-contained biological people, tells the self-contained biological people: Your technical route is not good, and you cannot use the raccoon star for experiments, otherwise you will be eliminated.
For a long time, the contribution of composite evolved people to the progress and development of science and technology in the universe has been basically zero, and all of them have been focused on eliminating hidden dangers. Now they encounter opponents and need higher-level technology, and the Earth-Environment Alliance happens to have all the conditions
, Alex holds the Path of Creation number in his hand, and has almost everything. But he believes that if the compound evolved man dug it out by himself, then he has no control over it; if he asks others, then what the compound evolved man does will be up to him.
should encounter the same difficulties.
"I can't give you more, I have to keep a backup, otherwise I might not be able to come back if I go out." Alex replied: "Except for the hyperspace gravity engine, the Ichthyosaur only has warp speed.
.If I encounter the Naturally Selected in this situation, I won’t be able to outrun the gravity catapult.”
"It makes sense. Speed is very important and helps preserve yourself." Captain Gas moved his fingers on the stubble on his cheeks and chin, then leaned forward, his eyes shining with excitement in the holographic projection of the communication image.
Glory. "Alex, speaking of the hyperspace gravity engine, I thought of something I could ask you to help with. It will be very helpful in improving the current war situation."
"Say it, I'm all ears." Alex agreed while shaking his head: "But I remind you, if you want to use the previous method again, such as returning my relatives to me and asking me to come up with technical matters,
Don’t think about it. Don’t exhaust all the fraternity among composite evolved people.”
"No. What happened before was just... Hey, it's useless to talk about it." Captain Gas waved his hand, as if to drive away some kind of haze. However, he completely misjudged the situation. Will the influence of those previous things be affected?
The fading lies entirely with Alex, and cannot be accomplished with just one or two words or a few actions from him.
"Alex, you used the hyperspace gravity engine to successfully send a container to the interior of the Evolution starship. We didn't find this function. If you can use the hyperspace channel to launch objects to a certain coordinate position, right?
You can place the bomb directly..."
"No." Alex waved his hand: "You are overthinking, the hyperspace gravity engine is not that useful. To put it bluntly, its function in transporting objects is the same as the gravity catapult. If the gravity catapult cannot do anything,
If you throw a bomb into the lair of the Naturally Selected, the hyperspace gravity engine will not work either. Here, the environmental isolation shield is enough to prevent the launch, and a stronger shield will directly filter the items you want to transmit into basic particles.
Scumbag."
"Then how did you penetrate the cargo box into the interior of the Evolver starship?"
"I can connect at the exit to open the hyperspace channel. This is related to my unique evolutionary plug-in ability, which cannot be copied. It is impossible for me to go deep into the Natural Selector base, then open the channel, and wait for the compound evolved man's bomb to be delivered
Come here and die in the glorious center of gravity. Don’t even think about it.”
"Well, it seems that there is no trick. Technically, my tactic is not as good as using a gravity catapult to launch a self-destructing starship." Captain Gass made another plan when his plan failed, and asked: "So, Ai
Rex, can you send a small starship to a coordinate in space where there are no obstacles?"
"It's a bit troublesome and consumes a lot of energy, but the answer is yes." Alex raised his eyebrows and said, "Ah... I probably understand what you are going to do."
As long as you think carefully about the ruling method of composite evolved people, it is not difficult to think of what Captain Gas wants to do: communication relay satellite. The basis of the computing power network is not computing power, but the network, which is an infrastructure that can span huge distances in the universe.
.A network that cannot solve the problem of delay and bandwidth will not be able to run regardless of the computing power, and can only become synonymous with garbage.
Superlight communication technology that can be used as infrastructure on a large scale currently has two main directions. One is based on quantum entanglement, and the other is gravitational waves. From a distance perspective, gravitational waves have more potential, but
Its signal is difficult to solve the bandwidth problem, and can only transmit several pre-coded fixed signals over ultra-long distances, such as "come to rescue me when encountering a threat".
There is no way around it. The essence of bandwidth is how much information can be transmitted per unit time. Information is generated by changes and comparisons, so bandwidth is approximately equal to the frequency of change. Gravity is a huge physical phenomenon, and it never changes rapidly.
Famous. If you want to increase the bandwidth of the signal emitted by gravitational waves, you must quickly change the gravitational state, and control these states to create sufficiently obvious boundaries to prevent the signal from blurring and attenuating until it cannot be distinguished. This goes against the nature of gravity and consumes a huge amount of energy.
It is difficult to reduce costs and lacks feasibility in engineering.
The cost starting point for using quantum entanglement is much lower. Its technical difficulty is lower than that of a warp engine. How expensive can it be? Quantum particles in the entanglement effect always change synchronously, and the speed of each other's response to each other's changes is 0, regardless of
General distance. But the entangled quanta need to be distributed, that is, two "quantums" are transmitted to the two ends that need to communicate, each end receives one, and then communicates with each other. Because the entangled quanta can undergo changes,
The number of times a message is generated is limited, so new entangled quanta need to be continuously distributed. As long as there are enough quanta, the bandwidth can be increased almost infinitely, but the quanta itself can only advance at the speed of light at most, and the distribution speed limits the construction period of the project.
Assuming that there is a distance of 4 light years - which is not even enough to go to the neighboring solar system - to lay out ten quantum entanglement communication center satellites, then each relay satellite is responsible for one-tenth of the distance. If you want to complete two
Real-time communication between two vertices requires all satellites to form continuous quantum distribution and receive each other's entangled quanta. Putting aside the time for satellite manufacturing and satellite launch, only the quantum distribution step must wait for the quantum
It will take five months to complete the flight.
So if you want to establish a communication network, you have to calculate it on a yearly basis, or launch a large number of quantum satellites in space to fill the vast space? No need. The compound evolutionary people thought of a way to combine warp speed technology with quantum technology.
The relay communication satellite launches quanta in a warp state, which increases the distribution speed of the communication system to super-light speed. The newly generated entangled quanta are like cannonballs, stuffed into the accelerator, and fly in a warp state. Because it cannot last
To transport space, it cannot always be at warp speed, and will eventually drop to the speed of light. But this method can make the distribution speed equivalent to five hundred times the speed of light, which makes engineering possible.
There are about three million light-years between the Home Galaxy and the Celestial Galaxy. Three million quantum relay communication satellites can only theoretically shorten the completion period to one year. Adding warp speed distribution, that is 17 hours. See
It sounds pretty good, right? But where did those three million quantum satellites come from? Don’t forget, each satellite also has at least two warp accelerators and a good enough long-lasting antimatter engine, and they also need to be
The launch is in place. How long will these production and launch activities take? One year or ten years? How many years can composite evolution people wait? Even if they can wait, the natural selectors may not give them a chance to wait. Alex does not want to do this.
It takes a long time.
"You may have guessed that launching relay satellites can bring computing power to the network..."
Before Captain Gas finished speaking, Alex waved his hand vigorously, "No! How many relay satellites are you going to launch? I don't have to do anything else, just launch them for you here? Every launch must first have
The process of inputting coordinates and charging, let alone whether my power device can withstand it, just treat it as unlimited power. This process takes ten minutes on average. After each launch, I have to wait ten minutes for the transportation to be completed.
After that, you can proceed to the next time, which is twenty minutes. How many twenty minutes do I need to give you?"
"It seems that you don't have a good idea." Captain Gas sighed: "I heard that the people at the institute basically came to the same conclusion, but what they verified was that starships were used to transport relay satellites, one by one.
In place. I originally thought that the launch method would be more trouble-free and labor-saving, or maybe you know some technologies here that we don’t have..."
Alex straightened his face, raised his index finger and shook it from side to side, and said: "Don't ask this kind of question, it will greatly affect the relationship. Every captain of the Evolved Starship has commanded a destroyer and learned the skills of composite evolved humans.
Combat history. You will not know the fate of those civilizations that covet our technology. I am also a composite evolved person, and I have also taken the captain's course - although it is only self-study. When I act in the way of a composite evolved captain
, and I do have higher technology in my hands, and if you want it like this, then I should eliminate you."
"Okay, I was rude. Mainly, I regard you as a researcher, explorer and combat hero first. I always feel that Amy is the captain and you are not. You are right. If you were the captain, I shouldn't ask this question.
You. I should say..." Captain Gas thought for a moment, then adjusted the captain's protective clothing, sat up straight, and asked formally, seriously and gently: "Captain Alex, what do you think?
Under what prerequisites and conditions, and in what areas can we cooperate?"
"Captain Gas, I think the two of us can cooperate in many aspects, provided that I come back from my home galaxy." Alex also said with the same posture and attitude: "At first glance, I heard about the third natural selection.
I was shocked by the news of the war. I must understand the specific situation before making a decision. For now, I don’t have a very mature idea, but I do have something very curious about it, which is the coordinate position of the ship hidden on the planet.
The giant starship in the clouds and mist. Is it the chosen one, or..."
"There's only one frame of the picture, so we can't say for sure, but it doesn't look like the technological style of a composite evolved person. Maybe we can talk in detail after you come back."
"Okay. I'll analyze how to deploy the computing power network, and you can help me collect the internal information of our composite evolved people about the unknown starship. The plan to exchange information can be a good start, right?"
Gus nodded. Although he was still a little uncomfortable, at least there was no resistance. Before Alex ended the communication, he also specifically warned to pay attention to safety. The Natural Chosen had put up heavy protection near their base, even if all the existing ones were gathered
The Evolver starship is also difficult to break through. Don't think that you can use the hyperspace gravity engine to carry out a jump tactic that blooms in the middle.
