Chapter 546: Origin Laboratory

Obviously, everyone who is engaged in research can realize the significance of this virtual space at the first time.

In fact, the Eternal Sleepers who created this virtual world are also quite aware of its value - although Gawain always ridicules and ridicules those cultists who created such a mental network but only knows how to daydream in it, but judging from the various information transmitted by Daniel, the Eternal Sleepers have actually been using the psychic network to conduct technical research from the beginning, and the only problem is that the Eternal Sleepers have created this "experimental environment", but they have not explored a supporting research and development model.

In the history of technological development, such "adaptation lag" events abound - during the Spark of Gondor, a chief magister of the Imperial Academy created a mental core that could receive twelve input instructions at the same time, but he never found a place for this mental core in his life, and it was not until the second half of the Spark Age that one of the magister's apprentices invented the "puppet synchronic compilation method" and applied it to the mental core, thus creating the Iron Man Corps, which the Gondor Empire is most proud of.

Similarly, there is the oscillating crystal created by Sir Fao in 122 Ansu, and people did not realize that it could be used on crystal resonators until 80 years later, and the first wind ring was created by Count Toparis in 455 Ansu, and until Ansu 496, when a royal mage discovered the phenomenon of high-frequency resonance of the wind element, this extremely important "elemental sensor" was used to play the high-pitched parts of court music......

It is often more difficult to create a method of making an invention than it is to invent an invention, but once it takes shape, it means that great technological progress is about to come – and Gawain's greatest strength is that he knows that this method exists.

The Typhon empire next door is also aware of the existence of this method, and the fact that Rosetta the Great single-handedly created the "Imperial Industrial Association" proves that he has found a way and found a way to take the initiative to make inventions, but Typhon's success is based on decades of accumulation, and their number of talents and people's way of thinking have allowed the "Imperial Industrial Association" to appear naturally, but Ansu does not have this condition - its number of talents, technological accumulation, and people's ideological foundation are not enough.

Therefore, Gawain can only take advantage of the tricks, and can only forcibly build a similar research and development system by himself, he has established the Magic Energy Technology Department, built the Rune Research Institute, the Magic Technology Research Institute, the Machine Manufacturing Institute and various design bureaus, and now, he also wants to dig up the Eternal Sleeper's mental network and turn it into his own laboratory.

Only in this way will he be able to bridge the gap between the Duchy of Cecil and Typhon, and minimize the negative factors of his weak foundation.

Rebecca and the others were excitedly discussing the future application direction of this experimental space, and Hetty was happily calculating how much budget could be saved by this, Gawain didn't say anything, he waited silently for a while, until the excitement of Rebecca and the others subsided slightly, he coughed twice to attract everyone's attention: "Don't be so excited, I still have a few points to remind you about 'virtual reality'." ”

Jenny was the first to calm down, she lowered her head slightly: "Please speak." ”

"First of all, although it is true that it can simulate some of the experimental environments of the real world—or even most of them, its simulation is still not 100% reliable," Gawain nodded, and said unhurriedly, "After all, the Eternal Sleeper did not really create a world, the computing power of the psychic network is limited, and the real-world parameters it inputs are also limited, so don't trust the simulation results here 100%, and treat it as a part of the experimental method, not all of it."

"Secondly, never forget the 'unknown' in the field of technology. This experimental space may be able to restore most of the worlds we currently know, but for the worlds we don't understand, such as the world of the elements, the world of souls, the world of shadows and the world of shadows, the laws of these worlds may not still work according to common sense, so we must always be prepared for the results of experiments in the virtual space that do not match the real world. ”

Gawain felt compelled to remind him of this—especially the second point.

He doesn't know if there is a "physical divide between the micro and macro domains" in this world, but he believes that a similar gap must exist, and as long as technology is still advancing, even the most advanced rune logic will one day encounter a situation that the existing theories cannot explain and understand, and after entering that new field, experience will fail, formulas will fail, and virtual reality will fail, but the scientific thinking of technicians will ...... It cannot be invalidated.

Runic logic and magic technology are still too young, but they are developing too fast, it may have experienced some setbacks, but it is still too far from maturity, in order to prevent this new thing that is full of momentum but lacks training from being defeated by setbacks one day, or even falling into the abyss of theology and nihilism, he must take precautions in advance.

Rebecca and Jenny listened to Gawain's words a little stunned, and then understood Gawain's intentions, Rebecca nodded very seriously: "I understand, Lord Ancestor." ”

Gawain nodded in satisfaction, and continued: "I have preliminarily set up the virtual environment of this space, preset some things for it, and then I will tell you how to use them, and Daniel will tell you about the manipulation of physical objects in the psychic network, the creation of new entities, and so on. ”

Daniel bowed his head deeply: "It's my pleasure. ”

Gawain exhaled, then looked into the distance: "Then finally, there should be a new name here." ”

His gaze swept over the endless expanse of water and the clear sky, and in that vast place, he seemed to have seen the birth of countless new devices and technologies in this experimental space.

"This space will be called the 'Origin Space', and the laboratory to be established here in the future will be called the 'Origin Laboratory,'" he said, "and this will be a new technological starting point, and I hope that each of you will make good use of it." ”

"That's a good name," said Kamel, humming, "and we'll live up to your trust." ”

Gawain nodded slightly, then looked at Daniel: "Then, the issue of the Origin Space and the Origin Laboratory will be discussed here first, and next, let's talk about the recent changes in Typhon." Daniel, tell us about your job. ”

The moment has finally arrived.

The moment to report back as one of the messengers among the Wanderer and his messengers.

Daniel's heart couldn't help but get a little excited, but he soon calmed down and bowed his head slightly: "Yes, my lord-

"According to your orders, I have been in contact with the minor nobles and emerging merchant groups who meet the requirements for some time, and have successfully won over and persuaded many people, among whom the most influential ones are......

"As you expected, Rosetta? Emperor Augustus's many policies were tilted towards new industries, and at the same time, he vigorously encouraged the emergence and application of new technologies and things, and he praised the inventor of the Anglei loom......

"The upper aristocracy was indifferent to the Anglei looms and textile mills......

"The Emperor recently issued a new decree calling for the construction of more roads next year, mainly connecting the north and south of the empire, and ordering the widening of the canals......"

As Gawain predicted, the development of technology would lead to the creation of new industries that would be a great opportunity for Typhon's minor nobles to regain their wealth and political status—the group that had lost the most in the process of the Empire's restructuring, and who desperately needed a new opportunity to return to the Empire's political situation, and becoming "capitalists" was the best way for them.

On the other hand, the great nobles, who still retained a lot of political resources and wealth, and had never left the center of imperial power, lacked the "urgency" of the small aristocracy, so they were much slower to respond to these new industries.

These two groups are destined to be divided.

And after the new merchants relied on capital to enter the market and merged with the small aristocracy to form a new group, this fragmentation would become even more chaotic.

As for Rosetta? Augustus's support for all kinds of new technologies and new things, support for new factories, and promote road transportation...... That's what he had to do and had to do.

Not everyone in the scene could understand the significance of Daniel's report, such as Rebecca and Jenny staring wide-eyed, and those who did, such as Herty and Gawain, all had extremely serious looks.

"You've done a good job," Gawain said after Daniel's debriefing, "so you've co-opted the original investors in Typhon's Council of Nobles...... Are your actions compelling? ”

"It doesn't attract extra attention, that's how Typhon's upper class works, and I'm doing what everybody does," Daniel said, "It's normal for someone like me to reconnect when I return to the Imperial Capital after a long absence. ”

Gawain pondered, and then asked, "As far as I know, Typhon's main current burning stone chemical plants are in the north, right?" ”

Daniel didn't know why the Wanderer suddenly asked such a question, but he still replied seriously: "Yes, most of the Burning Rock Acid Chemical Plants are in the north, and although the southern region has been promoting it in recent years, the production and transportation conditions of Rich Dust are very harsh, and most of the raw materials for burning rock come from the northeast coastline, so it is very slow to spread in the south." ”

"Something else you mentioned earlier – Typhon's main cotton producers are in the south?"

"Yes, nearly seventy percent of Typhon's cotton is produced on southern plantations, but as long as the mills are operating, the northern regions will inevitably be converted to cotton on a large scale—and relying on southern cotton alone will certainly not be enough for the factories to consume."

Gawain raised his eyelids and smiled, "But Southerners don't know that at the moment, do they?" ”

“…… What do you mean ......"

"Do you have what it takes to spread the word in southern Typhon?"

"I don't know the noble councillors of the Southern Territories," Daniel said, "but ...... I believe that many members of the Order of Eternal Sleep must have come from southern Typhon, as the Order of Eternal Sleep originally originated in the southern region of Typhon. ”

"Order of Eternal Sleep?" Gawain was slightly stunned, and suddenly realized that he had really ignored this idea - Daniel was a spy he had planted in Typhon and in the Order of Eternal Sleep at the same time, but many times he thought of Daniel's two identities separately, but in fact, ...... These two identities may work at the same time......

Cultists also need to live, and the vast majority of middle- and lower-class believers are not 100% engaged in religious activities, and in the real world, they also have their own industries and jobs, such as merchants, such as hunters, such as ...... Plantation owner in southern Typhon.

The new idea quickly took shape, and Gawain groaned for a moment, and said, "Very well, then you can spread the word in the Order of Eternal Sleep, and let it out in a more natural way—describe the textile mills, and let people know that Typhon will soon need a lot of cotton in the north." ”

Daniel reacted quickly: "You want to ...... Allowing the cotton plantations of the South to expand blindly? ”

"In the early days, they didn't blindly expand the scale, because even if the cotton in the north starts growing now, it will take time to be able to supply the factories for consumption, so the cotton plantations in the south will definitely be profitable first, but when they use all the profits they make to expand the plantations...... Typhon's northern cotton supply should be enough to cover the shortage," Gawain looked Daniel in the eye, "As you just said, the main Burning Rock Acid Chemical Plant...... It's all on the north side. ”

Daniel met Gawain's gaze, and suddenly, he understood the intentions of the Wanderer.

In a chill, he lowered his head: "Follow your will." ”

(Push the book and push the book, the title of the book is "Tomorrow's Tribulation", many people should have heard of it, the new book of the bear, the wolf and the dog.) Fantasy classification, the brain hole is clear, the atmosphere is relaxed, you can take a look at the book shortage, I personally feel very good. )
