Chapter 1046: Dial-up Wormhole Nets and Star Coins
The first test of the dial-up wormhole was very smooth, and in five minutes of travel time, it was teleported from the Tianming system to the solar system more than a thousand light-years away.
The whole process took more than six hours, and the Pan-Alliance forces all evacuated the Tianming system, returned to the solar system, teleported the whole body, and then turned off the teleportation function casually.
Returned to the solar system and conducted a battle damage count, this battle is known as the Second Locust Battle, or the Second Eternal Battle. The losses of the pan-allied side of various ships and aircraft and swarms can be described as innumerable, and the population loss is more than a million people, all of whom are military personnel. This number is nothing for a large interstellar war, but for Da Ming, it is a very large number.
Therefore, it is still necessary to take a proper rest and recuperate and sum up the experiences and lessons of the war.
The flies lost more ships and planes than the Pan-Alliance, with a population of 120 million, more than 100 times that of the Pan-Alliance, and basically all of them were civilians. Military personnel, preliminary estimates also put more than three million.
Judging by the casualty figures, the Pan Alliance still dealt a heavy blow to the flymen. But this result, the summer was very dissatisfied, which was too far from the numbers of the first battle of locusts, and the battle of the dark sun.
But there was also an unexpected gain in this campaign, that is, the joining of the Jade people of the Nian Ring and the Wheel and the Junyu line.
There are only two planets in the annual ring system, one rocky and one temperamental, and the wheels live on a large moon of the temperament planet.
The shape of the wheel man is round, like a large platter, but it is not the same as the horseshoe crab man. Although the horseshoe crab is also disc-shaped, the horseshoe crab has twelve limbs, while the wheel man, like the common human, has only four limbs. Because of the shape of the wheel man, it is called the wheel man.
The average height of the wheeled people is only about one and a half meters, and due to the change in living habits, their bodies have been added with metal bones, so they are a two-in-one human civilization of metal creatures.
Compared with the wheel people, they are the Jade people of the monarch system, their average height is about one meter nine, their body is slender and strong, and the appearance of the earthlings is very close, their skin is fair and crystalline, as clear as jade, so they are called the Jade people.
From the perspective of our Chinese people, this round of people and the Jade people, one is ugly and the other is beautiful, but whether they are beautiful or ugly, these two civilizations are gentle civilizations without malice. So he was quickly converted to obedience by the Pan Alliance.
For the Pan Alliance's sudden withdrawal from the Tianming Department, and it was without saying a word, this made both the Fly Man and the Left League feel very surprised.
On the planet Bright 4 of the Left Alliance Alliance in the neutral galaxy Light System, a debate was launched, and the member civilizations of the Left Alliance all launched their own speculations about the sudden withdrawal of troops from the Pan Alliance, and some people even questioned the ambassador of the Ming Dynasty.
The ambassador couldn't answer their questions either, leaving them to guess for themselves.
The turn of events was half a year after the withdrawal. In the summer, I thought that the rest of the Pan Alliance would be able to spend a year peacefully, but the initial expectation was that it happened in less than half a year. That is, as everyone guessed, the Scaly Man really did something to rebel against the Pan Alliance.
But not to say what this scaly armor man did, and to say that in the past six months, the Pan Alliance not only appeased the two small civilizations of the annual ring system and the monarch line, but also persuaded a total of eight other small civilizations to join in.
In addition, there has been a breakthrough in dial-up wormhole technology, that is, the multi-layer dial-up wormhole technology that was born three years ago was actually overturned by the engineers of the technical group themselves.
In fact, to be more accurate, it should be a comprehensive upgrade of the dial-up wormhole theory. In the course of the research, the experts of the engineering group were questioned:
Why dial wormholes, which can only be teleported between two wormholes at the same time, and in one direction? If it is only a one-way transmission, it is easy to say, but among the twelve wormholes, only two wormholes are transmitting through dial-up, and the other ten wormholes are idle and cannot be transmitted at the same time.
To put it bluntly, why can a dial-up wormhole group only carry out single-process transmission, but not multi-process transmission?
The second question is, why can a wormhole group only have 12 wormholes, and why can't this number be exceeded? If you want to go beyond it, you have to do a multi-layered setup?
This is the technical breakthrough of the engineering team on the above problems in the past six months, and the dial-up wormhole has been upgraded to the dial-up wormhole network, which is the aforementioned BC.
BC has broken through the idle number of 12, and has achieved an unlimited number of theoretical wormholes in a network.
First of all, the dial-up wormhole network needs to have a central control device, which we call a server, which is somewhat similar to a computer network. The server is housed in the solar system.
Secondly, each wormhole in the network is assigned an IP address, which we call CB, which means wormhole number, and each number consists of four hexadecimal digits. This is equivalent to a computer terminal in a computer network, or a telephone in a telephone network.
When you need to transmit, you can dial in the caller of the wormhole, and the called wormhole can be transmitted as long as it is idle. After the transmission starts, this pair of wormholes is in a working state, and the wormholes in the working state are shown to be busy for other wormholes in the network, which is the same principle as the telephone network.
Therefore, in the dial-up wormhole network, multi-process wormhole transmission can be carried out without affecting each other.
After the dial-up wormhole network was upgraded, it was immediately put into operation, and the number of wormholes was quickly expanded from the original 12 to 20.
After the upgrade and expansion, Xia specially consulted the chief engineer on this: "Can our wormhole network be operated commercially?" ”
"Commercial operations?" Huagong didn't understand a little, "We are all used for military purposes, how to conduct commercial operations?" ”
"Of course, it will be used by other civilizations that will join later," said Summer, "and I have a bold idea to issue a virtual currency that can be used to use dial-up wormhole teleportation, as well as to purchase technology and minerals." ”
The Chinese worker asked, "Your Excellency means that you want to use our technology to buy their minerals?" ”
"Yes, if we mine it ourselves, it will be laborious and laborious, and it will also involve sovereignty issues," Xia said, "and in the future, if we can't do it, we will be able to modify the new order of the Left Alliance Star Field, and when the time comes, how can we not introduce some new policies?" ”
Hua Gong was not interested in politics, and after listening to Xia's words, he said directly: "The business model you said is theoretically feasible, and I will study it with the members of the expert group when I go back." ”
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Pan Alliance to develop an interstellar financial system and develop an interstellar virtual circulation currency: Star Coin, abbreviated XB.
There are many ways to earn Star Coins, such as mining, selling, swapping regions, accepting bounty missions, killing or capturing space pirates, and so on.
