Chapter 14: The Top Mastermind
"It doesn't say why, but something must have happened. However, those things are not something we can control. Therefore, since the above is not said, there is naturally the above reason, everyone just needs to follow the order to perform the task, don't think too much. Seeing Shu Zhentian ask, Yu Bing just shook his head and said seriously.
Shu Zhentian stretched out his hand and stroked his forehead, nodded and said, "Well, we will naturally complete the task seriously." It's just that each remote dial-up system, which cost two trillion dollars to complete, is too wasteful to set up two galaxies so close to each other. That's not prepared for a few tens of light-years at all. ”
All the members of the expedition, who had eaten dinner with satisfied and happy expressions on their faces, were silent at this time.
Leng Feng was shocked when he heard this, then the "Star Gate" equipment actually cost two trillion Federation coins for each erection of it? That's simply burning money, you must know that the annual tax revenue of an ordinary administrative star is only more than twenty trillion, and the manufacturing cost of this star gate is really high, and it has made at least ten more, so it doesn't cost two or three billion federal coins?
The remote dial-up system should refer to something like a stargate, which allows warships to travel from one galaxy to another in an instant.
The milky white sphere with a diameter of 500 meters at the core of the asteroid base is that kind of thing, but from the situation introduced by Yu Bing, it is set up as the center point of the remote dialing system, that is, the main body.
Other dial-up systems are equipped to build remote docking points thousands of light-years away with it as the center, allowing warships to span thousands of years of distance, saving a lot of time.
You know, ordinary intergalactic travel, have to go through many correction routes, through the brain to calculate the jump path, and each jump into the subspace can only cross the distance of one or two galaxies at most, you have to be forced to leave because of the loss of the shield in the subspace, halfway must let the battleship engine charge the shield, and recalculate the data, of course, these seem to be a little complicated, basically the brain automatically calculates the data, people only need to focus on the safety of the voyage.
For example, if a high-performance civilian spacecraft wants to travel from Earth to a mineral galaxy 50 light-years away, it will need to make at least 20 jumps, a process that takes at least a week or so.
If it involves the issue of replenishing energy and overhauling the spacecraft, then this time will even be extended to more than ten days. In fact, the energy consumed by interstellar travel is directly proportional to the distance, and if you want to save time, you need to consume the same amount of energy, so most of the time is consumed in the middle of the supply energy and maintenance.
The appearance of this kind of stargate completely saves time, directly allowing the spacecraft to go directly from this end to another galaxy, which can be reached instantly.
But the energy value of supporting this kind of stargate is also immeasurable, at least Yu Bing can't explain to Leng Feng how to determine the value of those dark purple energy rods.
Yu Bing said that there are only about a dozen finished products of this kind of stargate, and its material components can only be mined in the remains of supernova explosions, and they are very rare.
The Stargate Dialing System was originally intended to be used on the periphery of marginal galaxies over 500 light-years away, establishing a path through important defensive areas where fleets could be quickly dispatched for support.
But now it has been used by the Federation and the military in unknown galaxies thousands of light-years away, and has been used by humans to draw boundaries near other civilizations, and there are no human colonization stars at least two or three thousand light-years away from the so-called boundaries to be demarcated.
Above Yu Bing, it can also be said that it is above Leng Feng's current front, and now he actually wants to establish such a stargate system in two administrative galaxies less than sixty light-years away, which is weishenme?
Moreover, Leng Feng also has a kind of trouble in his heart, whether the object he serves is still the military or not, and who should he be loyal to?
"Major Shu, don't think about it so much. The matter has been announced, so please go back and rest first! I still have something to talk to Xiao Leng about. Yu Bing saw that everyone's expressions were different, but she didn't know much, she just conveyed the order, so she asked everyone to rest.
Hearing Yu Bing's words, Shu Zhentian nodded with a serious face and said, "Okay." ”
Turning his head and waving goodbye to Leng Feng, he led his men to leave one after another.
After everyone in the first expedition team left, Yu Bing faced Leng Feng.
"Xiao Leng, have you always wanted to know why Mr. Xiao and I chose you to join the special reserve group, and weishenme you will become the special reserve storekeeper?" When Yu Bing asked this, the light in his eyes flickered.
Hearing Yu Bing ask, Leng Feng nodded and said, "Yes, it seems that this special group is very special, and the level of secrecy is extremely high, and one of my recruits, Weishenme, will join, which always makes me a little confused." ”
"Sister Yu, Mr. Xiao chose me to come in? If there is no such simple reason as the lack of a technician to repair the battleship, then it is completely possible to select talents from other units of the military, and I am really flattered that I can get such an appointment as a new recruit. And, am I actually serving the military or the federal government? Or is it the above service you are talking about, I don't understand a little, and I really need an answer to solve my confusion. ”
Seeing that Leng Feng asked so many questions, Yu Bing smiled, and then said softly: "Xiao Leng, let me answer your second question first." ”
"This special group is not only a little special, but very special, it belongs to the military establishment, but the science and technology research and development institutions that belong to it belong to neither the government nor the federation, we usually call it the top, because only the real head of the special department can meet the person in charge above."
"Mr. Xiao once told me that the people above don't care about their status in the government and the military at all, but all the people who enter the special department must absolutely obey the orders from above, and the federal government and the military have also acquiesced to this to a certain extent."
After hearing this, Leng Feng couldn't help asking: "That means that the orders above are higher than the orders of the federal government and the military?" So what if the orders from above clash with those of the government and the military? ”
This problem is very serious, originally the special group was only a special department of the federal government or the military, but now since Yu Bing said that the above does not care about the status of the government and the military, then it means that the top of the special group is actually completely independent of the federal government and the military. ,
Leng Feng is young, but not yet anarchist, so his expression is nervous.
"There should be no problem, and if there is a problem, it is also a problem with the government and the military. If there is no problem between the federal government and the military, it is expected that they will not object to any order issued to the task force. At that point you have to listen to the commands from above. Yu Bing said indifferently.
Leng Feng couldn't help but silently say that if there was a conflict and he didn't carry out the orders of the military or the government, wouldn't he become a traitor?
"Do you think you'll be seen as a traitor?" Yu Bing saw that Leng Feng's expression was rich and a little contradictory, so he couldn't help but smile and asked.
Leng Feng didn't speak, just nodded silently.
"Xiao Leng, your worries are unnecessary, there are many deeds in the history of the Federation that have disappeared in the river of time, you sit in front of the Zhi Brain, I will immediately elevate your authority on the Zhi Brain Network, there is some content you can watch. You should understand that Weishenme will not be considered a traitor. Yu Bing said as he motioned for Leng Feng to sit in front of the brain server in room A2.
Leng Feng walked to the marching table as he said and sat down slowly.
Yu Bing took the brain terminal in his hand and began to operate.
"Senior engineer Yu Bing's identity authentication has been completed! Access is granted to the SSS-level masterbrain network permission allocation system. After passing the identity verification, Yu Bing then began to operate.
"According to your permissions, you can assign A-level network permissions to up to xiangxia-level employees, please enter the staff name and the level of assigned permissions."
"A-level authority identification, authorize the cold front assistant technician to obtain A-level authority, over! Wait for confirmation from the Cold Front Assistant Technician that the certification process will be completed. ”
With a series of obvious brain synthesis voices, Yu Bing raised his head and said, "Xiao Leng, open your personal homepage in the military and go through the identity authentication process." ”
Leng Feng did as he did correctly, and the Zhi Brain server also emitted light to verify Leng Feng's identity and confirm Leng Feng's identity.
"Xiao Leng, enter this resource center, after logging in, you will know what it represents, and you will no longer have any worries." Yu Bing smiled and pointed to a red dot the size of an egg on the menu composed of the three-dimensional image sent by the Zhi Brain server.
This stereoscopic image actually included the connection maps of all the intelligent masterbrains in the known human galaxies, so Leng Feng was surprised to find this red dot that he had never found in the folk before, and it looked more than ten times larger than the red dot of any main brain.
Dozens of immigrant planets plus more military planets and mineral planets all have intelligent brains, and their computing and processing capabilities greatly save time, allowing humans to basically solve many problems by using intelligent brain terminals.
Taking a deep breath, Leng Feng knew that the mastermind represented by the red dot was the one he could only see because he had just elevated his authority and obtained the qualification to explore new areas.
The size of the red dot of the brain represents its actual computing power and storage capacity, and the red dot is so huge, coupled with the fact that it has not been seen on the network before, which proves that it is a very special brain
After clicking on it casually, after seeing the cube that appeared after magnification in the stereoscopic image, Leng Feng immediately leaned forward and stared at the screen, and after being stunned for two seconds, his eyes immediately lit up.
Turning around, he said excitedly: "Sister Yu, it turns out that what I heard the old people say on the earth is true!" Why didn't you tell me that was the case earlier? ”
