Shortly after the captain of the guard left......

"Boom!" After an explosion, the entire battleship shook violently.

All the people of the Feather Clan suddenly rioted!

……

Inside the bridge.

"What?! The thruster was blown up? ”

"Yes...... Yes Captain, that bastard Uther planted a bomb on the outside of the thruster, and we found the clue in his room!

However, when we used the maintenance robot to defuse the bomb, the hidden detonation mechanism was triggered, and the last bomb still exploded......" said the captain of the guard with a slightly embarrassed face.

"How's the loss?" Nie Yun asked with a rather ugly face.

"Fortunately, it is a small bomb, the power is not great, at present there are 2 sets of thrusters destroyed, maintenance personnel are rushing to repair, but it is expected that our power during this time is only 80% of the original."

"It seems...... The other party is trying to paralyze our mobility! Catherine, who was standing next to Nie Yun, frowned.

Yes, Catherine is standing here because she is now Nie Yun's temporary adjutant.

Gemini has its own officer training system, from logistics officer, to adjutant, to captain, which is basically a captain promotion route.

Through the logistics officer, you can learn about the various weapons and equipment, item consumption and personnel allocation of the battleship, and accumulate acting command experience through the captain's lieutenant, and finally be promoted to captain.

So after the unlucky former adjutant was killed by Nie Yun, Catherine naturally acted as Nie Yun's temporary adjutant.

"Well, there is a tight monitoring equipment inside the battleship, it should be difficult for Uther to make a big move, it is indeed a blind spot outside the battleship, you take someone to search carefully, don't leave any hidden dangers!" Nie Yun lowered his head and groaned.

"Yes! Captain! The captain of the guard took the order and hurried away.

"We have lost our speed advantage now, and we will definitely be caught up if we continue like this, so we will immediately arrange camouflage mines behind us to delay the pursuit of enemy ships as much as possible!"

"Yes!" Catherine answered and began to direct the operators in the bridge to carry out the order.

Nie Yun glanced at the busy bridge, but the corners of his mouth showed a vague smile......

Naturally, he didn't bomb "his own" battleship with enough to eat.

If this Feather Clan warship is run away so easily, then the Sea Clan's attack plan will inevitably make people feel a little anticlimactic, but if it is combined with an internal conspiracy, it can be called a well-planned lore game!

And the wise and wise "Captain Captain" not only saw through the conspiracy of the Sea Clan in advance, but also found out the internal spies, and took the injured warship out of the tiger's mouth at the last moment, preventing the Sea Clan's earth-shattering conspiracy this time!

Well...... Nie Yun feels that there is nothing wrong with this script, and it should be shortlisted for the Oscars.

On the other hand, Uther's death was a bit sudden, and Nie Yun's words alone made people suspicious, so he had to make this matter an ironclad case.

And now, there was an attack on the captain in the front, a blow up of the thrusters in the back, and there was "evidence" in the room that Nie Yun had planted a false accusation, and Uther had basically confirmed the identity of the Sea Clan's spy this time.

No one would think that Nie Yun was lying, after all, there were two warships chasing behind him, and the target was obviously him, so he wouldn't deliberately blow up his spaceship and wait for someone to catch him, right?

The last purpose was that Nie Yun wanted to delay the Ranger return a little bit, so as to digest the large amount of technology and Gemini information he had obtained!

At this time, inside the Feather Clan's battleship, a large number of mechanical insects are looking for suitable targets to devour and replace, with the cooperation of the ship's intelligent brain, one is responsible for eating, and the other is responsible for covering, and the Feather Clan people are completely unaware that their battleship is being quietly "Mithrilized"!

And they also didn't notice that the two warships behind them were getting closer and closer, and countless transport ships were full of mechanical insects, joining the team that devoured the Sea Clan warships.

Due to the need to keep a low profile, the speed of devouring the Feather Clan battleship was affected, but from the Sea Clan battleship, Nie Yun had already begun to reap the huge dividends of this victory in this war......

……

Virtual World - "Earth Tech Tree"!

The towering tech tree is lush and green, and it seems to have a more vigorous vitality than before!

Countless human scientific research workers shuttle back and forth between the nine major scientific and technological branches, and people wearing scholar's clothes can be seen everywhere sitting on the ground in twos and threes, or walking together, carrying out fierce academic exchanges.

In the invisible places, more experts and professors are conducting scientific calculations, or scientific research experiments, and even holding super-large scientific research conferences on a national scale.

Every day, elite scholars from the earth absorb a lot of knowledge here, and at the same time contribute more brilliant research results!

After several months of development, it has become a veritable center for the exchange of science and technology of the earth's civilization!

In fact, at first, the governments of the world refused.

They want to acquire advanced knowledge, but they unreservedly conduct scientific research in other people's virtual communities, so what secrets are there in their own country's cutting-edge technology?

However, as more and more scientists try the virtual sprites and virtual labs here, they can't stop taking drugs......

To put it simply, the virtual elf is a weakened version of the scientific research assistant-type wolf used by Yu Lao and others.

Every scientist who enters the world of the tech tree can apply for a virtual elf, which can not only help manage everyone's scientific research progress, research materials, and work arrangements, but also help with material collection, research report writing, scientific research retrieval, and even find collaborators in the same scientific research direction, which can be said to be a near-perfect scientific research assistant.

Recently, Codename has added a healthy living module to the virtual elf, which can help monitor the physical health of scientists and remind them to eat and exercise.

Efficient scientific research assistance and humanized intimate service have completely conquered all scientists.

Not only the world of the technology tree, Nie Yun is already planning to popularize this virtual elf to all users who enter the "endless world", it will be used as a personal intelligent auxiliary terminal, and it is also a lifelong bound identity certificate!

If the virtual elf only doubles the efficiency of scientists' scientific research, then the virtual laboratory is a super service model that completely subverts traditional scientific research.

The advantages of the virtual laboratory are that the computing power seems to ordinary people to be almost unlimited!

In order to provide additional computing power for global scientific research, Nie Yun built a large quantum computer center on the moon base to supply scientific research needs.

Can you imagine the concept that everyone's virtual laboratory has computing power comparable to that of a large research institute?

The computing power it provides is actually a serious overflow for most people, but due to the adoption of a cloud computing-like technology model, the computing power that is not actually used is not wasted.

It is precisely because of the leapfrog development of computing power that Nie Yun has provided the expensive computing power in the eyes of mankind to everyone almost free of charge!

Every scientist can carry out their own scientific research calculations as they like here, except for some large-scale scientific research projects, they almost no longer have to be constrained by computing power, and they can let their minds fly.

If the basic computing power provided by the virtual lab is insufficient, they can also apply for more computing power support from the system. Of course, this is a value-added service that needs to be charged, and the currency is naturally unlimited.

In addition to the near-infinite computing power, another advantage of the virtual lab is the ultra-high fidelity that is close to the laws of real physics!

The ultimate evolution of the virtual world is a perfect simulation of the real world, not only the senses, but also the endless laws of physics!

Based on the four powers, filled with various derived physical laws and cosmic laws, Nie Yun and Yu Lao and other scientists are trying to digitize the laws of the universe and build such a perfect virtual world.

Of course, this process is long and even endless, and human beings have not even been able to see all the laws, let alone express them virtually in the form of data.

The virtual laboratory is a bold attempt by Nie Yun and others!

He opened up the most realistic virtual world he could currently obtain to these scientists in the form of a virtual laboratory.

Here, they can complete most of the scientific research experiments, and the realism of the experiments can reach almost 80%!

Don't think that 80% is very low, in fact, the real role of virtual experiments is never to replace real experiments, its biggest role is to make scientific research less detours, and judge the correctness of scientific research direction in advance!

With 80% fidelity, scientists can roughly tell if their experiments are on the right path.

For example, in reality, after 500 failed experiments, it may be possible to find a successful experiment, so with this kind of virtual experiment, you can fail 400 times faster in it, and then find a real and feasible way, continue to fail 100 times in reality, and finally succeed.

So, how much money and time should be saved for the 400 experiments saved?

If it is a low-tech experiment such as production line commissioning, mechanical operation, and bridge load, then 80% of the fidelity can fully ensure that the results of the experiment are infinitely close to the truth!

Such a tool can not only improve the speed of scientific research by a thousand times, save time and manpower, but also be an immeasurable great asset!

What is the ratio of scientific research? Without him, Qian Er!

According to the statistics of recent years, the scientific research powerhouses of Miguo, Huajia, Europa, Neon and Nanbang ranked among the top five in the world's total scientific research expenditure, and last year, Huawei ranked eighth in the global enterprise R&D expenditure list with 11.2 billion US dollars.

Facts tell us that whoever can invest more money will have stronger R&D advantages and more scientific research results!

Now you have a tool in front of you that allows you to achieve the same results with a tenth or less of your original R&D funding......

The ending is predictable, and no one can resist such a temptation!
