With these two things, supplemented by sufficient manpower and material resources, it is not a problem to continuously produce faster-than-light spaceships and dominate the interstellar Age of Discovery.

It can be said that at the level of interstellar civilization, faster-than-light spaceships are the eternal pursuit of all civilizations.

In addition to the three hegemon-level civilizations of the Meteorite Star Sea, there are eight major and minor overlord-level civilizations, more than 300 galaxy civilizations in various alliance systems, more than 1,000 marginal interstellar civilizations, and tens of thousands of indigenous civilizations that are stuck on the threshold of interstellar civilizations, and their overall civilization covers the star field, which is tens of thousands of light years!

It is precisely because of such a vast star field and the three-dimensional distribution of vast time and space that the three hegemon-level civilizations with strong civilization dominance can only look at the ocean and sigh, and they can't rule at all, so this leaves enough broad living space and long enough strategic buffer space for many secondary civilizations to have such a thriving civilization.

And in these tens of thousands of light years, these countless civilizations, countless forces, and faster-than-light spaceships are the treasures of civilization that they are pursuing, and the core force that suppresses the fortune of civilization.

The faster-than-light spaceship is the power of action and combat effectiveness, which is one of the core competitive elements in the era of interstellar civilization.

Faster spaceships mean a wider ruling territory, stronger civilization power, more powerful attack power, and farther migration survivability.

Such a civilization undoubtedly has countless advantages over sub-light civilizations. In the face of a faster-than-light civilization that cannot be attacked or prevented, a low-level civilization is just a fish to be slaughtered. Its tragic situation is undoubtedly self-evident.

Therefore, those who do not have faster-than-light spaceships are looking for to buy faster-than-light spaceships, and those who have faster-than-light spaceships are still thinking about more faster-than-light spaceships, and if they have enough faster-than-light spaceships, they are looking for cost-effectiveness, and they are not hindered by the pursuit of replenishing their fleets, and they are seeking to independently manufacture faster-than-light spaceships, and they are already able to manufacture faster-than-light spaceships independently. They also want to build faster, more powerful, more efficient, and high-speed faster-than-light ships.

This is an endless road of civilization competition, until a civilization develops to the limit of interstellar civilization, is promoted to the level of cosmic civilization, has the ability of interstellar navigation and communication at least 100 times the speed of light, and can easily dominate a vast star field of hundreds of millions of billions of light years, and even the huge territory of several galaxies. At this time, the development system of civilization will take a sudden turn. Begin to move closer to the individual strength system.

Because, after the formation of a super civilization of the size of the cosmic civilization, the overall scientific and technological system of civilization, such as the speed of interstellar navigation and interstellar communication, is no longer the biggest bottleneck that focuses on restricting a civilization, and the intelligence, body, lifespan, and ability of the individual civilization itself. is the more critical constraint.

When a civilization develops to such a level, it will inevitably form an incomparably large and complex system of science and technology, technology, and knowledge, and the difficulty of the promotion, inheritance, and development of civilization will far exceed the intelligence and life expectancy level of ordinary civilized individuals, and the majority of the population will be reduced to a garbage population. It is difficult to adapt to the development needs of the new era, and it is even more difficult to promote the further development of civilization.

At this time, the inheritors of civilization often encounter a paradox, that is, if they want to improve the strength of civilization, they must inherit more knowledge, so that the inheritors can learn and absorb, master and master, and even bring forth the new.

However, the larger the number and the more complex the knowledge system, the longer the time it takes for the inheritors to learn, master, and create, and most civilizations often have their limits, and this limit is not only difficult to achieve, but also extremely difficult to break through.

The longer the inheritance time, the younger generations need to spend more and more time in their learning career, and when all the knowledge points are mastered, and they are thoroughly integrated in work and research, the life of a civilized individual is almost over.

In such a situation, it is obvious that civilization has reached the point where there is no way to advance, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a long period of sinking.

Therefore, at this level, mastering a broader civilization territory and exploring more distant unknown time and space is no longer the main development direction of cosmic-level civilization.

Mastering more effective techniques and methods to enhance the longevity and quality of individuals to the greatest extent is the ultimate problem in extending the vitality of civilization.

The more advanced the civilization, the more it needs a large number of extremely intelligent, extremely strong, and extremely long-lived civilization individuals as an important cornerstone of civilization inheritance and development, which is the inevitable direction of evolution.

However, it is undoubtedly an extremely difficult task to enhance the quality and longevity of civilized individuals as much as possible without side effects.

The application of low-level scientific and technological transformation and biological transformation technologies not only has no way to support the further growth of civilization, but will bring about all kinds of negative social effects, causing all kinds of unimaginable consequences and ecological disasters, which is also an important reason why the planetary transformation technology of the Canglan civilization was sold at a high price in the cosmic civilization.

Because of the abundant aura, the transformation of the living body by a high concentration of aura is the most natural and harmless, and can stabilize the genetic sequence of the living body to the greatest extent.

The higher the level of civilization, the more it understands the mystery, and the more knowledgeable it is, the more eager it is.

Of course, when it comes to the level of cosmic civilization, it is undoubtedly quite a distant thing for many civilizations in the meteorite star sea, and these many civilizations are still tearing each other apart at this level of interstellar civilization.

Not only the underground indigenous civilization is climbing up, but doing everything possible to get closer to the top, and as a result, eight civilization overlords have come out, that is, the three civilization overlords above, and you are also competing for each other, seizing the commanding heights of civilization with each other.

In addition to rushing up with strength. What kind of conspiracy, pulling legs and plotting, this is an old trick that has been played for thousands of years, and it is precisely because of this that the eight small overlords of civilization can stand out, and behind them, none of them is indispensable to the shadow of the hegemon-level civilization. It is an important grip used to distract the opponent's attention, and it is also a substitute for the overlord-level civilization.

They are certainly a big threat to the under-powerful overlord civilization, but for the veteran overlords with super hard power, these little guys are just pawns to suppress their opponents.

As long as they don't rise to a certain height, the hegemon-level civilizations below are two, or ten or eight, and they are all insignificant to them, as long as they don't affect their civilization interests. It's all small characters that can be tolerated.

Such a high-ranking three hegemon-level civilizations, although they have also felt that in the entire civilization system, the demand for unconventional geniuses and comprehensive compound geniuses has increased dramatically, even with the huge population size of their civilization, it is gradually difficult to supply an abundant cutting-edge population, so that the development of civilization is gradually slowing down.

However, for them. The problem is obviously not too urgent, and the geniuses born naturally in the race. It can still roughly meet the needs of the development of civilization, it is nothing more than a slower speed, which itself is also very normal, the scientific and technological climb in the high-end and profound field, which is so easy to make a breakthrough, this problem is not a serious bottleneck.

None of the three hegemonic civilizations has yet to feel the restraining effect of the key factor of population quality. Naturally, the lower civilizations are less concerned with these issues.

All galactic civilizations are the same as the main force of civilization development, aiming at the field of faster-than-light spaceships.

It's just that, even with such a huge amount of civilization and such an urgent common expectation, there are tens of thousands of super-large civilization groups in the entire star field here. Among all these civilizations, only three overlord-level civilizations have the strong strength to independently develop and manufacture faster-than-light spaceships, and the other eight small overlord-level civilizations, taken together, are barely half.

The three-and-a-half-hour faster-than-light spacecraft manufacturing system is the essence of all the high-end faster-than-light spacecraft manufacturing here, the core pillar of civilization here.

Correspondingly, the civilization with the independent manufacturing capacity of sub-light spaceships, in this star field, you can find hundreds of them, and there are thousands of them with some manufacturing capabilities, and the products have even reached the level of unsalable, and the market competition can be called miserable, and it is necessary to vigorously develop the star piracy industry to stimulate the market, in order to create a large number of product demand.

It's not that no one wants to get out of this quagmire and climb to a higher end, which is more in short supply, it's completely the realm of faster-than-light spaceships in the seller's market, it's just that no one can do it, it's too difficult.

From this alone, we can see how difficult it is to manufacture this faster-than-light spaceship, and how great its impact is on the ecology of galaxy civilization.

Even a half-hung faster-than-light spaceship, an inferior and inferior ship with no practical value, has not yet been officially put into production, can cause an uproar in the interstellar market, causing many civilizations to buy desires, it is conceivable that if there are more, unrestricted purchase qualifications, more powerful faster-than-light spaceships will have a huge impact.

What kind of impulse would it be if a complete, reasonable, and feasible faster-than-light spacecraft design and manufacturing scheme appeared on the market?

I'm afraid that from the hegemon-level civilization to the lowest-level indigenous-level civilization, all of them will fall into an unparalleled state of madness, and if they spend all their family property and exhaust all the resources of the civilization in exchange for such a piece of information, there will be countless civilizations who will come to seek to buy it.

Unfortunately, for the current civilization on Earth, there is simply no such information.

At the same time that many civilizations in the meteorite star sea are unable to obtain a single piece of information, the design and manufacturing plans of various versions of high, medium and low-end faster-than-light spaceships have a large stack of earth civilizations.

And it is also classified, each has its own special advantages, some have the lowest manufacturing difficulty, can be manufactured with the manufacturing equipment of ordinary sub-light speed interstellar spacecraft, and some have the lowest requirements for the type of resources and the number of cherished resources, using the most ordinary interstellar resources, after a large number of special methods of preparation, you can meet the manufacture of faster-than-light spacecraft.

There are also programs that are the most cost-effective, and some programs can make foreign trade spaceships with lethal backdoors, and even, based on various information, the earth civilization also has special design software for designing new spaceship models by itself, in short, the advantages in this regard, the earth civilization is simply too huge.

There is a huge core database inherited from the Canglan civilization by Sima Mulong, not to mention any half-baked inferior faster-than-light spaceship, that is, the design and construction materials of faster-than-light spaceships that are on par with the three hegemon-level civilizations, and even exceed their navigation efficiency by hundreds of times.

The only thing that restricts the development speed of the earth's civilization is the development speed of the earth itself.

When the earth civilization has enough strength to start building various faster-than-light spaceship models, various foreign trade spaceships, and has a large number of strategic assets, then the earth civilization at that time will be able to sweep the entire civilization circle of the meteorite star sea with the attitude of a dragon crossing the river.

Don't look at the huge number of civilizations on the other side of the Meteorite Star Sea, the various civilization alliances are often hundreds of members, occupying a sphere of influence of thousands of light years, and have an incomparably deep civilization heritage, but as long as the earth civilization can come up with a large amount of hard currency and has an unparalleled strategic advantage, then even if it is a short period of time to subvert the civilization pattern of the entire Meteorite Star Sea, it is an easy matter.

Of course, striking iron still needs its own hardness, the future is bright, but the road is tortuous, even though the earth civilization has a faintly visible bright future, but, obviously, there is still a long way to go from cashing out the chips.

The main problem of the earth's civilization at this stage is that its own strength is too weak.

Strictly speaking, the current civilization height of the earth's civilization, in terms of the civilization standard of the meteorite star sea, even the standard of ordinary parallel trade-level interstellar civilization cannot be reached.

The number of planets cannot be reached, and the standard of spaceships cannot be reached, and the earth civilization at this time is still a standard planetary native-level civilization, even if it has a huge strategic advantage, it cannot be realized at this time.

Population, territory, resources, industrial system, all aspects of the conditions are still not up to standard, far from the basic indicators of self-built faster-than-light spacecraft production lines. (To be continued.) )
