Chapter 38: The Age of the Soul (I)
"If I have seen a little farther than Descartes, it is because I am standing on the shoulders of giants. ---Newton"
The progress of human science and technology civilization has its own objective laws, and the progress of future generations often stands on the shoulders of predecessors.
The steam engine, the internal combustion engine, the electric motor, one power system after another, directly led to several industrial revolutions, and the whole society underwent radical changes as a result.
In the midst of the catastrophe, the gods teamed up to release an evil spell, the physical rules of this shijie were rewritten, and the basic physical laws such as electromagnetic conversion and thermal energy conversion became unrecognizable, when fuels such as oil and alcohol could only be burned quietly, electromagnetic reactions could not be carried out, and the engine was unresponsive, the mechanical civilization of mankind that lasted for nearly a thousand years came to an end.
Next, people were surprised to find that this was not only an individual phenomenon, but also the conversion of electricity and magnetism, nuclear energy and power, and the law of transformation of various types of energy, which was canceled out of thin air, and Shijie's physical laws were revised.
This is equivalent to a civilization that has lasted for many years, and has been slashed by the gods from the middle.
But fortunately, a new spar civilization was born, and soul power, which originated from the human body's liliang, replaced oil and electricity, and became a new energy source.
Now, more than 300 years after the catastrophe, the new civilization of mankind has also reached the time of the industrial revolution again.
Just like Watt's physical phenomenon of pushing the lid of the kettle to beat from water vapor to the Peugeot Watt steam engine that invented the first industrial revolution, the ST mechanism, the symbol of the third soul energy revolution, was also inspired by what happened to him as a child. In that dark era, who would have thought that the invention that finally changed Shijie was originally just a weapon used by Master Jiang Shangbo to deal with the strong enemy in the actual combat class. Yes, he connected that great prototype to an electric rod, and the most controversial thing was that at the time, he had not even begun to formally study New Moxue. -- In the 560th year after the cataclysm (AD), Liu Siqi, director of the Haiming Ink Research Institute, delivered a speech at a public lecture"
Historical changes have an irreducible inevitability, but some of them are lucky, by chance, more or less, directly or indirectly affected history.
Jiang Shang's ability to invent this ST mechanism does not mean how smart he is, but this is just a completely different way of thinking, plus enough coincidence.
Behind that hidden history, soul power was the first to be possessed by beings with innate soul power such as star soul envoys, and they taught the knowledge of soul power to human beings, so there were soul skills that imitated star soul skills, soul power martial arts that imitated star soul martial arts, and war soul armaments and civilian soul tools that imitated star soul weapons.
The history of the development of soul power civilization is also a history of imitation and breakthrough, to the modern times when soul skills and soul specific systems have been formed, the star soul is not as important as in the past, and it is recognized as the strongest "ten colors" individual, but there are only three star soul powerhouses, and most of them are ordinary soul power users step by step to the highest peak.
The star soul is liliang, and it is even more binding and troublesome, of course, I won't describe it here.
No one will dislike that their weapons and equipment are too good, even a star soul powerhouse like Hong Ling, there are also a large number of battles and auxiliary soul tools, although the copycat has surpassed the original goods in many aspects, but the development of soul equipment is still restricted by the star soul.
Soul power has its own characteristics and feelings, and the user of the soul device uses the soul power to operate the soul device as if it were his own arm.
The user is both an energy provider and an operator, and the most obvious example is the machine car that can be seen in the streets and alleys of Heming City.
Those rickshaw drivers, who have to provide energy for the machine and operate the direction, are often mentally and physically exhausted.
The same is true for soul equipment, how much soul power there is and what grade of soul equipment to use, gradually becoming a consensus.
But Jiang Shang didn't think much of it, in his eyes, there was no difference between soul power and electricity and steam power in the past.
This is contrary to the mainstream view, and the vast majority of developers regard soul power as a gift from the human body, a gift from God.
Their research is full of idealism, and for Jiang Shang, who lacks knowledge in this area, soul power is just pure energy.
Therefore, Jiang Shang used the idea of designing machinery in the past, regarded the human body as one of the parts, and designed a soul device that was completely different from the mainstream.
There is no difference between superior and inferior, just because of the difference between chance and background, which is mainly a division of ideas.
In addition, other researchers are designing soul tools for the night watch, naturally the more powerful the better, and there is no way to consume more energy, and the Mojia machine gun is a typical example of using people as batteries.
The professional night watchman is at least a third-level soul power, and the ordinary warrior is at least a primordial stone, and from the beginning, they have not considered the soul power low.
And Jiang Shang's goal was to make himself a white stone who could also use equipment, so his way of thinking was not at all the same direction as other ink scholars.
The first generation of soul equipment is a simple imitation and imitation of the star soul armament, which is extremely difficult to use, such as the imitation of the descendant's bow of shooting the sun, which requires the user to have the force to pull out the mountains and seas, and after the imitation, most of them cannot meet the right user.
The second-generation soul tool is the product of the mixed blood of Moxue, Lixue and other sons, it is people-oriented, and it is often a special weapon customized according to the user, and it is basically abolished for personal use.
Soul crystals and sage slates are a few generalized finished products, but once they are used, they will be in tune with the user's soul power fluctuations and bound for life.
The direction of Jiang Shang's research is to reject these idealistic theories and simply regard people as a part of the soul. "Lack of explosiveness? The explosive power of the gun should be enough, right, just imitate that to make an energy conversion system, the soul power reserve is insufficient? The Soul Hedron allows the Night's Watch to regenerate its soul power, providing energy in the first place. However, the soul power user is too weak to control the burst, so he will not control it, let him burst out at one time, and it is possible to provide power. ”
With the style of the newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, with the way of thinking that is completely nonsense in the eyes of mainstream researchers, and with the good fortune blessed by God, Jiang Shang invented this soul baton
In fact, the attack system that imitates the electric baton is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the scholars, and the power device that can allow ordinary people to have low-level warriors for a short time by destroying soul crystals is a truly epoch-making invention.
In addition, the development concept combined with the mechanical civilization more than 300 years ago has provided it with countless weapon templates and theoretical basis.
As researcher Sun said, this is the naïve type of the third generation of soul tools, which is combined with the past mechanical civilization and takes the path of universalization and standardization.
Although it still has a series of problems such as high energy consumption (losing an expensive soul crystal in one burst), being uncontrollable, and losing power after a single blow, it is still very early to be truly practical, but it is undeniable that it has endless potential.
He made the 1+1=2 axiom become the fact that 1+1=3 under characteristic conditions, although there is no obvious gap yet, but this represents a direction, development, if one day 1+1=10, quantitative change into qualitative change, the whole shijie will be subverted.
For example, just looking at the soul power, Jiang Shang was not even as good as an ordinary city defense soldier, but with the use of the soul batter, he killed the second-level abandoned beast lurker whose strength was stronger than that of an ordinary warrior.
If every ordinary warrior has a complete set of these soul devices, then the combat power of the entire city can be greatly improved, as long as the individual strength is not as great as it is now, the crowd tactics will become the most powerful weapon for humans to fight against abandoned beasts.
The Haiming Ink Research Institute is not a person who does not know the goods, in fact, the exoskeleton armor named "Wild Boy" by Jiang Shang is an attempt to put ST organs into practical use.
And for the Perik Chamber of Commerce, this is simply a gift from God to make a fortune, after knowing the existence of the ST agency through the inside line of the Ink Research Institute, the Perik family decided to get him at all costs, and the crazy interests of the monopoly have made Catro fall into madness.
"If you can monopolize this jishu...... Isn't that equivalent to obtaining a patent for a steam engine during the Industrial Revolution, and that is a chance for the family to take off. ”
And it was really because of its importance that Winston had already listed it as a first-class secret in Hemming City, and the Chamber of Commerce's insider status was not enough to understand the details at all.
If there is a 100% profit, the capitalists will take risks; If there is a 200% profit, the capitalists will flout the law; If there is a 300% profit, then the capitalists will trample on everything in the world, and there is no doubt that the Parik family, who have been in business for generations, made the choice.
And now, Jiang Shang actually said that this epoch-making product destined to leave a name in history is his own invention.
No matter what future generations say, but at least now, Siluer is really frightened.
Staring at the rudimentary and delicate power group in front of him, Siluer didn't know what to say.
"What are you kidding, then what are we all for......"
The one who knows himself best is often the enemy, and Si Luer knows very well that on such a topic, it is impossible for Jiang Shang to lie.
Meimu swept back and forth on Jiang Shang, who was pretending to be innocent, zuihou, Si Luer sighed and squeezed out a sentence.
"With this alone, you are enough to make a name in history...... Looks like I'm looking for the wrong opponent. I am guilty of dealing with you. ”
Jiang Shang himself was a little crying and laughing, it turned out that so many troubles, zuihou, were caused by himself.
"Give this to your uncle, will he stop that damn attack Jihua?"
This is obviously impossible, and he couldn't stand Si Luer's idiot-like eyes, Jiang Shang shook his head helplessly.
"Okay, okay, didn't I see that the atmosphere was too solemn, just kidding to ease it...... Can you give me your copy of Jihua? ”
What Jiang still wants, but it is the color of this duel, the jihua book that Si Luer has shown before, only if he knows the other party's jihua, he can naturally prescribe the right medicine and attack the opponent's weakness.
But Silore turned his head, as if he hadn't heard.
"This ...... Jihua book? Jiang Shang was a little surprised, Si Luer was not a debtor, and since he was expelled from the family, there was no need to keep secrets for the family.
Half-ringing, the red glow extended to the elf's ear, and Si Luer squeezed out a sentence from his mouth.
"No...... That's not a jihua book. ”
"What's that!?" Jiang Shang, who was surprised, asked, but then he patted his head and figured it out.
"Who is suitable to carry out the conspiracy and prepare a jihua book, do you plan to use it as evidence after being caught? Jiang Shang, you are also stupid to read. ”
"How could I ask such a stupid question.
Sure enough, the girl's embarrassed murmur came as scheduled.
"That's really not a jihua book, it's a love letter from a fool to me, and I haven't had time to open it yet."
"Then where is Liu Min? Has our jihua been debunked? ”
It's about friends, and Jiang Shang is also a little anxious. "I didn't expect Alain ......"
“…… That's fooling you, the real whistleblower is Liu Min's deputy, the deputy head of the Knights, Ming Ke. Alain is your own guess, I'm just following your words. ”
"Huh." It seems that this time I was fooled completely enough, and now what can I do but giggle.
Jiang Shang secretly called it a fluke in his heart, if he really went down, I am afraid, he would not know anything.
Not only that, but I am afraid that after receiving an urgent message from myself, I and the Knights will really regard Alain as a traitor.
Now that I think about it, it's true, Liu Min said that the traitor may be a high-level member of the Knights, and Alan is just a newcomer, it seems that his appearance in the Crazy Dragon Gang that time was really just an accident, and as for the appearance of Jiang Shang, it was a pure accident.
“…… Dad, you're right, pretty women are really good at deceiving people. ”
Jiang Shanghou was afraid, he really believed it just now, and he almost lost everything.
But now that the ice has released his previous suspicions, Si Luer is willing to gamble and lose, and there is no need for Jiang Shang to continue to ask, so he will explain the ins and outs of the matter 1510.
The Perik family's Jihua is very simple, there are only two steps, the first step is to create chaos and transfer the garrison of the Ink Research Institute, and the second step is to take away the prototype that is still in the testing stage through a surprise attack.
And the first step has already been tried halfway, although due to Jiang Shang's activity, he did not succeed in opening the city gate, but before that, through the transformation ability of the lurker, he had deceived Deputy Chief Zhan Pengfei to send a request for help, and transferred the city defense army and the night watch team.
"In other words, the only guards in the Ink Research Institute now are a few police squads from the Security Bureau?"
Jiang Shang's face darkened suddenly, Catro is the deputy director of the Security Bureau, if there is no cat in it, who will believe it.
"Yes, and the commander of the guard is Catro himself. It only takes a few orders to transfer those police squads, even if he doesn't come forward and knows the roots, he can take down those guards with the family's guards, and Catro still has that group of shapeshifters by his side. By the way, you can also complete the planting. ”
"It turned out that the uniform of the Knights of the Balance raided the guard team, and afterwards, the deputy director of the Security Bureau 'made a big show' and wiped out Liu Min's Knights of the Balance, killing people and killing people, and by the way, making another meritorious achievement."
Soon, Catello's Jihua was completely restored, but Jiang Shang smiled instead.
"Although there are a lot of discrepancies in the details, the overall situation is really as expected, hehe, now, the trap set should work, Catro is in big trouble."
