Looking at the huge star in front of them, Chu Tianjiang and Zhang Xiaogang were a little anxious.

It's been a long time and nothing has changed.

Nothing will happen, right?

Zhang Xiaogang glanced at Chu Tianjiang, his expression was very complicated.

Although theoretically, even a person with mass energy can enter the interior of a star, the temperature inside the star is extremely high, there is an extremely huge pressure, and the energy disturbance generated is very alarming, so after entering the interior of the star, a lot of energy needs to be consumed to counteract these effects. For qualitative beings, this means that there are enough qualitative bodies to provide energy, and almost no qualitative person has enough qualitative bodies. Even intelligent life with a star core may not be able to survive inside a star without the help of external energy. In order to enter the interior of a star and come out unscathed, you need to have at least a convergent core.

What Zhang Xiaogang has is only a fusion star core, and only Chu Tianjiang has a fusion star core.

"Lao Chu, do you want to go in and have a look?" Zhang Xiaogang finally couldn't help but say it.

"No, they're out."

Not long after, a pitch-black sphere emerged from the star and flew towards Chu Tianjiang. Inside the sphere, it is Ali and Luo Jinyong.

"How?" Zhang Xiaogang immediately greeted him.

Luo Jinyong nodded slightly and didn't say anything.

Zhang Xiaogang frowned and looked at Ali.

"The professor has mastered the technique, let's go back."

Ali opened the space bridge, first let Zhang Xiaogang take Luo Jinyong in, and then followed Chu Tianjiang in, and the other end of the bridge was the second home.

Back in Space City, the four find Clara, who has stayed, and then enter the subspace set up specifically for discussing big issues.

"The method mentioned by Ali works, and we can fully grasp the science and technology of the creator, if not fully understand the basic science based on the four-dimensional space, but at least we can use it. Of course, unlike the creators, we need to resort to other means. ”

"What do you mean?"

"It's easy." Luo Jinyong glanced at Ali before he said, "For us, the biggest obstacle to using the creator's science and technology is that we can't understand the basic science determined by the basic properties of the four-dimensional universe. To put it simply, if we can't understand that one plus one equals two, then we can't understand higher mathematics, and we can't explain all physical phenomena with mathematical formulas. The point is, these physical phenomena exist, and before we discovered gravity, we had already mastered the art of using gravity, such as building trebuchets. Before we could figure out the chemical properties of explosives, artillery was made. There is no contradiction between the understanding of basic techniques and applied science techniques, and even if they cannot be understood, they can be used. ”

Zhang Xiaogang nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Luo Jinyong meant.

"Of course, if we don't understand, we don't want to explore. With our minds, it is very difficult to achieve results, at least not in our generation. ”

"What do you mean......"

"We can't do it, we can do it somehow." Luo Jinyong let out a long breath and said, "This is to create a machine that can run the creator's science and technology. This machine does not need to understand the science and technology of the creator, it only needs to obtain the science and technology of the creator, and then find out how to use these science and technology, and then tell us, let us use these methods to use the science and technology of the great civilization. ”

"That star ......," Zhang Xiaogang looked surprised.

"That's a device created by Ali."

Zhang Xiaogang was stunned for a moment and looked at Ali.

"The professor is right, the point is, you can't understand our science and technology. If it's just utilization, it doesn't matter if you understand it. ”

Zhang Xiaogang let out a sigh, and his expression looked a little complicated.

"It's just a very rudimentary piece of equipment." Ali paused for a moment and said, "The professor and I agree that there is a need to build a more powerful device. ”

"What do you mean?" Chu Tianjiang asked.

"It's not a device, it's a system." Luo Jinyong smiled and said, "To put it bluntly, we need enough star cores, and we also need a large enough and complex enough star system. Such a device must be made of star cores, and stars are the most ideal carriers. To put it simply, these devices are built inside the star and the energy of the star is used to keep it running. ”

"The Arcadia system!"

"What?"

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment and said, "In the two stars of the Arcadia Galaxy, there are many star cores, and at that time, we didn't know why there were so many star cores in the stars. Now it seems that the star has been modified, perhaps the kind of device that Arley made. ”

"I've been to the Acadia galaxy and I've been inside the stars, it's not like that."

"This ......"

"I've been to a lot of star systems and found that many stars have a lot of nuclei in them, but none of them have been modified."

Chu Tianjiang frowned, looking at Ali a little incomprehensibly.

"Obviously, the existence of these star cores is a problem, but the creators who did this may not intend to transform these stars into devices capable of running science and technology."

"The question is, why would you do this?"

Ali let out a long breath and said, "There is only one person who can do this, at least in our family, only one person can do it. ”

"Becca?"

Ali nodded slightly and said, "Obviously, Becca didn't tell us why, so he must have a very important purpose in doing these things." ”

"Anyway, we at least found a solution to the problem."

Ali smiled and said, "The problem now is that of all the star systems we control, none of them are large and complex enough. ”

"This ......"

"In the last six months, I've been to all the star systems we control, including the Debaran star system, the largest and most complex star system, with only eleven stars, and the main star is very unstable. Of course, if enough nuclei are gathered in the primary star, and a large amount of star energy is consumed, it can ensure that the main star burns steadily for billions of years, but the number of secondary stars is too small to form a huge system. Not to mention running the science and technology that all the creators have mastered, even if I run the science and technology that I have mastered, I can't do it. According to my estimates, we need a massive galaxy with at least twenty-four stars, and all substars with masses no less than the Sun. Arley paused for a moment and then said, "Unfortunately, such a galaxy only exists near the center of the Milky Way. There are no similar star systems in the vicinity of the Second Home, within a radius of 5,000 light-years. Even if the radius is expanded to 10,000 light-years, there is only one such star system, and it is controlled by an extremely powerful intelligent civilization, which we may not be able to defeat. Within 100,000 light-years, there are seven such star systems. It's just that the one who controls these star systems is also an extremely powerful intelligent civilization, and its creator is much stronger than mine. ”

"So, we're going to have to sit back and wait?"

Ali smiled reluctantly and looked at Luo Jinyong.

"If you don't have the right star systems, you have to transform more star systems and connect them together to become a much larger system." Luo Jinyong sighed and said, "It's just that it takes more time and consumes more resources. ”

"We don't have enough resources right now?"

Luo Jinyong nodded and said, "It's not enough." ”

Zhang Xiaogang nodded slightly and said, "In this way, the problem is simple. Until we can find the right star system, we need to continue to expand and conquer more star systems with minimal consumption and resources. It's just that we have to deal with the Ono people first. ”

"I'll help the professor open a two-way space bridge later."

Zhang Xiaogang nodded and said, "Before the end of the Onovan War, we have to expand our military strength and prepare to wage war against a more powerful intelligent civilization. ”

Chu Tianjiang's brows jumped a few times and said, "We have such strength?" ”

"Through three wars, we have proven that humanity is capable of defeating intelligent civilizations that are selfishly powerful and have more star systems. Although the professor proposes a compromise solution, the best solution is to capture a large and complex galaxy. Obviously, there is no reason for us to take a detour, and we must be prepared to do so so so that human civilization can develop and grow. ”

"But it's too risky."

"There is a lot of risk, there is a lot of gain."

"Lao Zhang ......"

"Lao Zhang is right, it's worth the risk." Ali stood on Zhang Xiaogang's side again and said, "The key is that the method proposed by the professor is not sustainable. ”

"What do you mean?"

"With the professor's method, the resources we have obtained through the war are simply not enough to sustain the war attrition, and it is impossible to use it to build a huge system." Arley paused for a moment, then added, "Only by capturing a massive star system can we solve this problem at its root." ”

Chu Tianjiang was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.

"In this case, let's deal with the Ono people first, and then think about what to do next." Zhang Xiaogang smiled, "Anyway, the Onovan War has lasted too long, and there are still many Acadians and other intelligent civilizations waiting for us to settle down." ”

Chu Tianjiang nodded and didn't say anything more.

Since no decision had been taken, the issue could be raised at the next time it was discussed, and perhaps there would be other solutions.
