Chapter 149: Report on the Development of Weapons

"Do you still choose to attend the presentation in reality? You must know that there will be a weapon test launch after the report meeting is completed in the virtual space. In Wang Qian's room, Liu Qi projected it, and now there is still an hour before the opening of the weapons development report.

"Of course I'm going to the virtual space, I'm not a person with quirks......" Wang Qian was a little speechless.

"So you don't have a phobia of virtual space!" Liu Qi pretended to be surprised.

……

Wang Qian is really not very interested in virtual space, under the same conditions, Wang Qian will choose reality, after all, there are still too many people in virtual space.

Liu Qi sent the coordinates, and Wang Qian teleported away.

The teleportation was completed in an instant, and looking at the slightly crowded scene in front of him, Wang Gan was a little stunned, you must know that Beit is now more than 50 million people, and such a scene is rare.

"Isn't this the most lively city that never sleeps in the legend?" Wang Qian asked. The population density in the virtual space can be set, and even if there are many people, it can maintain a reasonable density. Gu Wang Qian, who deliberately maintained a high density, only knew that there was only one city that never sleeps.

"Of course, what's the point of not coming to the city that never sleeps in the virtual space. Let's go, unlike other spaces where there is only one entrance to the report, there are two in the city that never sleeps. I'll take you to the nearest one. ”

Soon the two of them came to a rather antique palace, pushed the door open and entered, and the hall had been automatically assigned, and this report would not make many people crowd together.

It's not big inside, and there are only twenty or thirty chairs at a glance, and the front row is still empty. However, the overall dress is also antique, which matches the entrance of the palace outside.

After finding two places to sit down, Wang Qian turned up the report meeting manual, and according to the records, the report meeting was roughly divided into three parts, investigation and locking, the current weapon introduction, and the weapon development trend.

There are many of them that Wang Qian doesn't know, and some of them are still very interesting. He planned to look for relevant information after listening to the report.

Soon the report meeting began, and Minister Fu Guoqiang, dressed in military uniform, began to stand in front of the podium to make a report.

"Fellow citizens, Beit has not encountered any other civilization for a full 400,000 years. It has been 530,000 years since it fought any other civilization.

This cannot be called good news. If civilization wants to progress, it must have a sense of distress and contact with the outside world.

I'm not advocating the theory of war, I'm simply stating a fact. It's hard to imagine that, hundreds of thousands of years later, our weapon still hasn't changed much, although it has become faster, more accurate, and more powerful.

But the principle is the same, which makes me a little skeptical that we can overcome the difficulties that may arise in the future. ”

……

"My point has been made. Next, we officially enter the first part, about detection and lockdown.

For a long time, with the help of energy fluctuations, we could only make effective observations within five light-years, and accurate observations were only two light-years. ”

Behind Minister Fu Guoqiang, the demonstration attack ship appeared, although it was called a ship, but it was already a ball outfit. There is also a white circle and a red circle outside the sphere, indicating the detection range.

"This is a very disadvantageous position in the war of civilizations. According to the data we have exchanged with other civilizations, the effective observation range of a fourth-level peak civilization that excels in observation should be twenty light-years.

Many people know that there are omissions in Beit's technology network, but there must be no shortcomings in technology like this, which is related to the survival of civilization.

Now, after several efforts, Byth finally has a monitoring system that can be used. And better than others. The effective observation range is 50 light years, and the diameter of a single is 10 times that of the previous one. ”

With Minister Fu Guoqiang's words, the reconnaissance range of the attack ship suddenly expanded.

And all of this is thanks to spiritual thoughts.

Human beings are very complex sources of information, and in the past, when we made observations, we aggregated individual observational data to obtain comprehensive information about people.

This time, with the help of the new concept of spiritual thought, we began to look at the human individual in a holistic dimension.

It's amazing that everyone sends out different messages, but with the help of spiritual thoughts, they can all be unified without losing their individuality.

At present, the research on spiritual thoughts is in its infancy, and those who are interested can engage in relevant research, and the preliminary information can be consulted by the Ministry of Defense or the Data Institute. ”

……

"Next, let's take a look at Beit's current weapons technology.

As everyone knows, our current main battle weapon is a mass cannon, but it has always been limited by the firing range, not to mention the short range, and the rate of fire is not fast.

Now, we have finally made a breakthrough in this area, yes, that crazy idea to add the same unstable curvature warp engines to the already unstable mass bombs, and let them jump directly into the enemy's fleet.

I think when I hear this, some people must be thinking, with that unreliable jump probability, we won't blow ourselves up.

Don't worry, we've already thought of a traction method, yes, it's still with the help of spiritual thoughts, through this means, the direction of the jump can be roughly guided, and there won't be too much deviation. ”

At this time, in the demonstration video, a point of light on an attack ship began to flicker, and soon jumped onto a target, and then the target was silently blown into powder, completely becoming cosmic dust.

Based on the video observations, Wang Qian thought that this might be the most convenient weapon for Bait.

……

"Finally, let's take a look at what's next.

As we all know, each civilization's weapons have their own characteristics, which are closely related to their own civilization. So let's think about it, in the demonstration just now, what other technologies have not been mentioned?

That's right, it's artificial intelligence.

Of course, we won't let the AI drive a starship to sink each other, which is a bit too inhumane.

As for the new type of weapon, I think it should be more of a mental attack weapon.

In fact, Better's accumulation in this area is a lot, artificial intelligence is, virtual space is also, and we usually don't pay much attention to the thinking data and learning devices.

With such a large technical reserve, I don't think it's too difficult to develop the relevant weapons.

According to our hypothesis, the new psychic attack weapon will bypass the human brain reception program and directly rewrite the mind.

This will be a big killer for Beit, and it is the crystallization of many of Beite's technical advantages. We are confident that with this weapon system, Beit's security will be assured like never before.

……”

The report continued, but Wang Gan was a little distracted, thinking about the spiritual weapon just now.

In the past, the thinking data had a twenty-year thinking synchronization period, and the error tolerance rate was not high, and when used as a weapon, it could only stir the opponent's brain into a paste.

Later, the improved learning device was a lightweight information infusion system, but there was a problem with this thing, it needed the brain to actively receive it.

This is like putting a bottle of water in front of Wang Gan, and he needs to pick it up and drink it himself, unlike now, there is an internal circulatory system, and the water has already participated in the body circulation without taking it out.

Moreover, the active reception of the learning device is accompanied by slight discomfort, so the use of this technology in weapons only causes physiological brain death.

But looking at the current meaning, it seems that there is a way to bypass the brain's autonomous acceptance program and pass information directly into the other party's brain, and there will be no detection and rejection.

But this can easily cause ethical problems, although such ethical problems have been caused several times since the beginning of thinking data, but this time it seems to be more bottomless.

And Wang Qian can't figure out what this has to do with artificial intelligence, and there is also a virtual space, and the connection doesn't seem to be too strong.

According to Wang Gan's personal speculation, the whole report meeting is the most secret here.
