"There's a game called Exiled Stars, which pretty much captures all the ideas humanity has for the wars it will face when it enters the interstellar age."

Director Niu manipulated it in his hand, summoned Aita with permission, and asked her to cast a promotional screen of the game in the office.

Ye Ming hummed lightly and looked at the picture - although he doesn't play games, there are people around him who do, especially this kind of Star Wars-themed game, which has been very popular in the past two years.

On the screen, the huge fleet is "visibly" bombarding the main guns in space.

"The military isn't going to rely on games to train now, right?"

"How rare? Fifteen years ago, we used games to train our troops......" Director Niu laughed: "Don't look down on the game, it can simulate many scenarios." ”

"Of course I'm not looking down on it, the main thing is that this is a bit illogical and looks awkward." Ye Ming pointed to the face-to-face battleship on the screen, and couldn't help laughing: "You said that this is a naval battle, how can a space war give you a chance to strike at the visual range?" ”

"It's just artistic expression, but it's essentially the same, over-the-horizon strikes also require positioning and information - I don't want to talk about this, but its multidimensional mode of warfare."

As Director Niu's words fell, the camera also turned, and the side where a massive space carrier was located finally won and began to advance above a planet under the protection of the frigate.

At this time, the frigate's main guns opened fire, and it was effortless to destroy the defensive turrets of the satellites and the Battlestar before descending into orbit.

Immediately afterward, the mothership began to unleash swarm-like air and space fighters to penetrate the atmosphere, reach the surface of the planet, and engage in combat with ground forces.

These ground forces, with planes, artillery, tanks, and colossiums, are basically improvements and fancy upgrades of human weapons anyway.

And the battle mode is basically born from the hypothetical idea that aliens want to completely conquer the earth and conquer mankind.

Looking at the dazzling land and air battle scenes, Ye Ming probably understood the full meaning of Director Niu.

At first, he thought that the military wanted to keep the pilot fire - after all, the cost and cycle of training a combat pilot are very considerable, and it cannot be easily abandoned.

Only now do I understand...... The military actually thinks a little deeper, a little further.

Or rather...... More "radical" - at a time when all of humanity is thinking about how to deal with the crisis, they are already thinking about fighting conquest wars and security wars with other civilizations in the future.

At this time, Director Niu glanced at Ye Ming deeply and said meaningfully: "Even if we communicate well with the Blue Star people, we dare not guarantee that every civilization is so easy to speak." ”

"If you forget to fight, you will be in danger, Mr. Ye!"

After being silent for a long time, Ye Ming nodded slowly: "Indeed, we are civilized human beings, and it is impossible to destroy other people's satellites at every turn like executors, uproot the entire civilized race, and teach a lesson at most." ”

Director Niu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he laughed!

"What do you say?"

"The design of the space carrier is fine, it's simple. It is mainly an air-space fighter, and it is also a manned air-space fighter - once manned, it means that its speed will be limited, especially when doing high-speed maneuvers, the human body simply cannot withstand such a strong G-force. ”

Ye Ming said and looked at Director Niu: "I agree with what you said, people are the most reliable machines. But the contradictions here are a bit irreconcilable......"

Director Niu naturally knew the contradiction between the ultra-high-speed fighter and the strength of the human body, and smiled at the moment: "So you can think of a way to solve the problem of overload from the design?" ”

Ye Mingshu laughed: "If this can be solved, then Uncle Newton must not jump up from the coffin?" ”

"Isn't dimensional space technology okay too?"

"Space technology is not a panacea, unless the curvature of the space around the pilot is changed...... Wait a minute! Ye Ming was slightly stunned, and then his eyes widened: ", it seems that it can be done in theory?" ”

"How?"

"When the aircraft is maneuvering at high speed, changing the curvature of the space where the pilot is located inside the aircraft is similar to changing the curvature of the spacecraft or accelerating or decelerating suddenly, by changing the curvature to create the opposite gravitational force to keep the space where the pilot is relatively stationary."

Director Niu's eyes lit up instantly: "Can that be done?" ”

"Theoretically, but in practice, ......" Ye Ming pursed his lips and looked at Director Niu: "What is the fastest speed of a manned small aircraft now?" ”

"If you only talk about airplanes, then it is the old American SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest is Mach 3.5, about a kilometer per second. No one has broken it yet. ”

"That's to design the aerospace fighter of the future, because it uses a nuclear fusion engine, and the speed is at least ten times faster...... Then the energy that changes the curvature is ...... Forget it, I'm too lazy to calculate, at least it's the current spaceship-level engine. ”

Director Niu: "......"

"Not to mention the high cost, the demand for space is also quite high. In that case, it would be better to open a battleship......"

Director Niu: "...... If you say that, it's no fun? ”

Ye Ming bit his lip, and after being silent for a few seconds, he nodded slightly: "Let's not talk about the cost of the aircraft, just the cost of the space stacking engine...... It will be high. Unless ......"

"Unless what?"

"Unless there is a very convenient and simple substance or material or method that can change the curvature."

Speaking of this, Ye Ming's brows furrowed deeply.

This kind of thing, in fact, really exists!

It's just that humanity has not mastered it so far.

That's ...... The blue star has the material in the mouth of Slanqi, that is, ......

Listening to Ye Ming's words, Director Niu also frowned deeply, and then blurted out: "Strange substances? ”

"Well, strange matter."

At this moment, the watch in Ye Ming's hand vibrate, and after it was connected, He Mo's voice soon came.

"Boss, all three tests have been completed, you can contact the blue star at the right time."

"Okay." Ye Ming retracted his thoughts, glanced at Director Niu, and said in a deep voice: "You can also leave, and you must ensure that all personnel except for the experimental animals leave." ”

"Understood."

After hanging up the call, Ye Ming closed his eyes and exhaled slowly: "Strange substances, although I believe what Wuda said, strange substances can only be produced by relying on the wisdom brain. But I'm not convinced, this thing can only be used by the brain. ”

"Well, the Kodo people are all blue stars, and they don't have the brains and strange substances." Director Niu nodded in agreement.

If the Blue Stars, the Kara, who had been contacted before, lied about the strange matter, then it is easy to draw conclusions when compared to the rhetoric of the Kodo and their failure to achieve interstellar leaps.

That is, strange substances can indeed only be produced by the intelligent brain, and the intelligent brain is indeed not mastered by everyone.

But Director Niu also believes what Ye Ming said, as a scientist, he naturally has the desire to explore and the unconvinced heart for any unknown substance.

Especially a big scientist like Ye Ming, how can he be at ease if he doesn't give it a try?

"Say, can we ask the Blue Star people for a try?"

"That's what I'm going to do." Ye Ming hummed, then fiddled with his watch, and said softly: "But don't be in a hurry now, take your time." And we're actually trying to see if we can find it in the high-dimensional space - because according to speculation, this thing is very likely to be a matter of the high-dimensional space, which naturally has spatial regression. ”

"I don't understand this."

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, anyway, Old Man Huo and Sheng Fei are doing an experiment on a blind cat touching a dead mouse, to see if they can collect something from the high-dimensional space."

Saying that, Ye Ming launched a video request to Wuda.

……

After the screen jumps, Uda's figure appears in the office.

"Good morning, Grand Rite."

"Good morning, Uda." Ye Ming glanced at the time: "The curvature over there is a little higher......

"Well, we provide algorithmic error correction, and we use the seconds you define." Saying that, Wuda shook his head slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I'm actually curious, how did you come up with the idea of defining the duration of the radiation of 9,192,631,770 cycles corresponding to the transition between the two ultrafine energy levels of the ground state of the cesium-133 atom as seconds?" ”

"Haha...... This is a long story, and the main thing is to be precise. Especially when communicating over long distances, it is very troublesome to not match the time. ”

Wu Da nodded approvingly: "This is true, I have to say that you are worth learning in the pursuit of the ultimate." ”

"It's over—so let's get started?"

"Let's get started."

"Okay, we can directly use the timer of the high-dimensional space on both sides to be accurate to nanoseconds, and if it is higher, it will be error, and it will not help."

"Okay."

With the completion of the timing of both parties at the same time, it means that the last process before the start of the experiment is completed, and the next step is to wait quietly for the charging and final safety inspection.

For human beings, the main task this time is to deliver a batch of high-precision semiconductor materials and products to Blue Star, such as workstations, personal hosts, chips, panels, and various power and network-related equipment.

Of course, there are also attempts in the field of scientific research, such as the live transportation of animals and plants, various food ingredients, etc., these things are necessary and always in contact with human daily life, and have great practical significance.

In addition, there are various rare metals and materials, especially those radioactive elements with a short half-life, that are used to test the effects of crossing artificial wormholes.

As for Azure Star, they need to do a good job of safety protection and inspection, such as checking the vital signs of living animals, changes in the properties of various materials, molecular structure, etc.

On the whole, this is a "gift package" for the former "savior".

From beginning to end, Ye Ming never mentioned the "Slanzi" substance.

Time passed slowly, and soon the experimental node was reached.

……

Cygnus, BCT-3812 galaxy.

Uda stood in front of the porthole, his eyes unblinking at the constantly beating numbers.

Well...... This number beats according to the decimal law of human beings.

Ye Ming's image was on the monitor on the side, and it could be seen that Ye Ming's expression was also very serious and cautious.

Finally, the countdown is over.

Uda saw that the man-made singularity standing on an asteroid suddenly burst into a faint blue light, and at the same time, the numbers on the various instruments on his side began to beat continuously.

This means that the artificial singularity produces large-scale fluctuations in curvature.

Wuda took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the assistant beside him, and said in a deep voice, "Is there any response from the high-dimensional detector?" ”

The assistant immediately replied: "Everything is normal." ”

"Block group status?"

"Everything works."

"Acceptance station status?" Uda's eyes were fixed on the space in front of the man-made singularity—an oval, indescribable ball of light.

"Normal!"

As the assistant's voice fell, the light of the ball of light disappeared in an instant, and a pitch-black oval car floated silently in the air.

The assistant's voice was excited and nervous: "You can already see the car!" ”

Uda inhaled deeply again and turned his head to look at the screen beside him.

On the screen, Ye Ming Dali Si was also looking at him.

"Cargo hold received, Grand Rites."

"Well, it's time for you to check it out, and pay attention to the list and comparison."

In the picture, Ye Ming was also visibly relieved, and then smiled: "But Wuda, what is the shielding device?" ”

Wuda was slightly stunned! I opened my mouth, but I didn't know what to say......

Ye Ming had guessed before, but he didn't answer positively - after all, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, so he could deny it.

But now...... Ye Ming personally heard his instructions......

Silent, Uda said softly, "That's a design to shield against fluctuations in curvature. ”

"Well, that's interesting, how does it work?"

"The principle is to use the Slanzi substance to ......stabilize the curvature of a small space," Wuda said and exhaled slowly: "Professor Ye, human beings don't need this technology, and it's too late to use this technology now." ”

As soon as his words fell, he saw Ye Ming on the other side frowning slightly.

Wuda lowered his eyes, and an indescribable emotion rose in his heart - when the two civilizations are communicating, they will definitely retain their core technology, but ...... Communication with humans......

Let's put it this way, Uda has always been in charge of communicating with humans, and he knows too well what he is getting from humans - if the communication between the two sides is compared to doing business, then the Saint Star people are exchanging two or three dollars for ten dollars for humans.

The Saint Star people are making a lot of money.

- Not to mention anything else, the first experiment of this man-made singularity was that humans sent something in the cargo hold!

In addition to the scientific research equipment, the other equipment inside is the most advanced electronic semiconductor products so far!

You say, facing the generosity of humanity...... How embarrassed is he?

"Well, you guys check it first, and we'll talk about using strange matter to stabilize the curvature in a moment—I don't think humans will necessarily be able to use this technology."

Wu Da was slightly stunned, but seeing that the other side had already turned his head to chat with the official named Director Niu, he also held back the doubts in his heart and gave an order to the assistant instead.

"Unboxing!"
