Scholar’s Advanced Technological System

Starlight Space Station.

As usual, Fields and his colleagues are spying on the site where Pan-Asian cooperation is located in synchronous orbit, as directed by NASA.

To be precise, this is probably no longer a peep, but a bright sight.

At first, Fields sort of converged, just periodically and inadvertently swept the astronomical observation mirrors from the base of the Astronomical Space Station, and then probably felt that the East Asian Heavy Engineers didn't even care about their little moves, so they simply parked the camera there.

As a result, it evolved from an astronomical observatory to a “spy satellite” nominally for civilian use, situated on the Star Space Station.

“They look like... they don't seem to care that we're peeking at their technology," Johnny said with emotion looking at the site outside the starboard window, "To be honest, I have some doubts right now as to whether our mission makes sense. ”

Clearly, the engineers of the Pan-Asian cooperation believe that even if they put the blueprints in front of them, they will not be able to create exactly the same.

If so, what's the point of filming them throughout the entire construction process?

“The point is that, if one day in the future, we master the key materials and engineering technologies, we will not be left too far behind.” Looking out the starboard window, Fields' face was filled with deep clouds of sadness and anxiety, "but their construction speed was incredible… at the current pace and construction speed, if they could keep it going, the main part of the entire station would be completed by the end of the year. ”

When the sentence was uttered, the two men fell into silence, looking out the starboard window and stained with envy.

It would be nice to have such a great scholar in their hometown.

Although objectively the space elevator under construction is not a miracle for a person, it all starts with him.

And the foundation of this tall tower, which was able to stand in synchronous orbit at the beginning of the 22nd century, was also due to his awakening...

Just as the two of them were in their minds, a silver-white starship suddenly appeared in their sights.

When I first saw the ship, Fields stunned for a moment and didn't recognize it for a while.

It was not until he quickly returned to the observation system and focused his eyes on the holographic screen for a moment that he suddenly recognized himself.

Cruiser Qinling!

Equipped with state-of-the-art nuclear power units and fire control systems, the ship is one of the most powerful tonnages of the Pan-Asian first fleet in nearly a decade.

“The Qin Ling… how did they get the cruiser into synchronous orbit? ”

Obviously, his colleague Johnny also recognized the name of the ship, and his pupils were just as surprised as he was.

More than that, they were surprised to see that the two heavy engineering vessels had left the base of the Tiantian space station and were leaning towards the cruiser.

Aware of what might be the big move in trans-Asian cooperation, Fields made a decision immediately after a moment of reflection.

“Point the observation system to the past! ”

“But... what about the space elevator? Johnny continued with hesitation," The task entrusted to us by NASA does not include observing the military movements of the Pan-Asian First Fleet. ”

“The two engineers were separated from the work site of the space elevator, and it is uncertain whether the cruiser is related to the space elevator project," a stiff frown emerged, Fields continued, "If it is a crime above, I will assume all responsibility! ”

“Now, do as I say! ”

……

“… this is definitely the strangest task I've had in 10 years. ”

Looking at the mission briefing before him, Captain Deng Yuan's face remained unchanged, but his stomach was full of doubt.

Cooperate with Master Lu in the experiment...

What kind of experiment is this? It needs the most advanced seasonal cruiser in trans-Asian cooperation.

Shouldn't they go to the IMCRC for help?

“If I remember correctly… he is a mathematician,” said the deputy standing next to him, with a clearly confused expression on his face, unable to help but say, "Has he begun to study weapons? ”

“It is not clear what kind of experiments are described in detail in the briefing. ”

The index finger dotted in the air, Deng Yuan closed the mission brief and continued.

“Anyway, we'll find out when we see him. ”

As the two engineering ships docked with the Qin Ling, Captain Deng, standing on the bridge, finally met the man known as the greatest scholar of the 21st century.

He reached out his right hand, and Deng Yuan routinely introduced himself to him.

“Hello, Master Lu, I am the captain of the Pan-Asian First Fleet Qin Ling, this is my deputy Liu Zhengyi. By order of our superiors, we will assist you in completing the experiment during this operation. ”

The deputy Liu also smiled out his right hand and shook it with the Ark after the captain.

“Hello! ”

“Nice to meet you! ”

After smiling and nodding his head to the two of them, a simple handshake chilled, the ark slightly rectified the whole face without wasting time, and went straight to the point of describing his intentions and the most critical experimental content.

After listening to the hyperspace theory of the Ark, it took Captain Deng a lot of work to figure out what the whole experiment was going to study.

In short, in order to test the disturbance of the Z particle oscillator to the spatial curvature, the ship needs a moveable nuclear fusion reactor.

Of the many types of ships in the Pan-Asian First Fleet, the only one that meets the criteria, apart from the spacecraft, is the cruiser equipped with the carrier flag with a controllable differentiation reactor to meet the minimum standards for activating the Z particle oscillator.

To be honest, while he is very interested in what the Ark says about hyperspace navigation, and Deng Yuan is willing to follow orders to cooperate with the experiment, the only thing that makes it difficult for him to accept is that the Ark and East Asian Heavy Industries are going to make drastic modifications to his "love ship”.

He's been on this ship for some years, and it's like home to him...

“Refurbish this… I hope you will reconsider carefully,” said Lieutenant Liu, looking at the canoe, standing next to the captain, in a serious tone, "dismantling the weapon system and external armor is no longer a major change for the Qin Ling, which is tantamount to turning our cruiser into a large cargo ship! Even if you reload it after the experiment, its combat power will be greatly reduced. Do you understand what I'm saying? ”

The ship nodded down and said, "I understand, but this experiment is very important, and it involves far more things than a starship… even an entire fleet. ”

“But why do you have to remove the equipment?” Looking at the landing boat, Captain Deng asked, "Especially the exterior armor, many of which employ holistic welding technology, is not only difficult to disassemble and reinstall, but can also cause irreparable damage to the material itself. Would it not be possible to disassemble the weapons system and retain this part? ”

“Sorry, I'm afraid not," the Ark shook its head and revealed, "the hyperspace passage has very strict limits on passing through quality. Unless equipped with a larger power system, the current tonnage of the Qinling cruiser makes it difficult to pass through the open hyperspace passage. ”

And one more thing the Ark didn't say.

Nor is there any hope of going through hyperspace channels with a superstandard mass, but there may be unpredictable consequences.

Since this has exceeded the computational boundaries, the results can hardly be predicted by mathematical calculations.

If the situation is pleasant, it probably won't go in at all, through the surface of the "door" like through a layer of foam; or it will succeed and jump out of a random position.

And if the situation is not optimistic...

In the end, whether or not you can come out, how much you went in and how much you left behind, is an unknown number.

Captain Deng: “… how sure are you of the experiment? ”

“It makes no sense to ask this question,” the Ark shook its head, "and I believe my calculations, if not 100% certain, would not stand here. The question now is simply whether you believe me as much as I believe in my research. ”

Hearing that, Captain Deng fell into silence.

About five minutes later, he looked up at the ark and said in a serious tone, as if he had made a major decision in his heart.

“I have often heard that you are the greatest scholar on this planet, and I believe that this great description is not only about your wisdom, but also about your rigour for science. ”

“Thank you for your trust,” the Ark said softly, "I can assure you that I will not fail that trust. ”

Hearing this promise from the Ark, Captain Deng nodded his head slightly.

Turning his back to the surprised gaze of the officers beside him, he spoke solemnly.

“In that case. ”

“Our Qin Ling, please! ”
