Chapter 232 The lid of Pandora's box is opened

The great power of human beings comes from the use of tools.

The essence of tools is the fine utilization of various materials.

With the technological level of Nanli Starfield, all materials are essentially the arrangement and combination of various atoms.

There is a fact that is not noticed by ordinary people is that human beings are far less powerful than they imagined, and the number of atoms that human beings can use is far less than imagined.

The vast majority of atoms in the universe are in a state where they can only be seen but cannot be touched.

For example, stars, the solid cores of giant planets, and even the deep structures of large rocky planets all exist in theory, but cannot be obtained.

As for the amount of matter stored in white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes, I dare not even think about it.

However, the Sky Project of the City of Stars is to create a metal ring with a diameter of more than 2 kilometers and a mass of more than one trillion tons, which is enough to exhaust all the precious metal atoms mined in the next 20 years.

In other words, after the launch of the Sky Project, in the next 20 years, the City of Stars will basically be unable to do other major tasks.

"The higher-ups said that this is called the star ring of the sky, and it is a super electromagnetic accelerator, which is used to accelerate macro shells."

Inside the Titan battleship, Yan Ling's hands and feet were firmly fixed on the seat by chains, her delicate and delicate face was full of frustration after being captured.

Opposite him, Lin Yuan stared at the holographic image on the main control screen without blinking: "Electromagnetically accelerated macro shells. Is it a super-sized electromagnetic gun?"

"You can put it this way. According to those engineers, the velocity of the final shell can reach 0.9C, which is enough to destroy any space city with one blow. I personally think this is terrifying, and this thing should not exist. But I am just a small officer, My thoughts don’t count at all.”

The holographic image is the memory extracted from Yanling's brain chip. At present, it is only less than 10 kilometers long, but we can already see some clues of future development.

Lin Yuan took a closer look, shook his head and said, "The structure is very complicated, and it doesn't look like a large electromagnetic gun."

A trace of contempt flashed in Yan Ling's eyes: "You are an intelligence spy, what kind of engineer are you pretending to be?"

He didn't believe that Lin Yuan could understand it at all.

Although the basic principle of the electromagnetic gun is not difficult, this electromagnetic cannon has unprecedented acceleration capabilities, and quantitative changes produce qualitative changes. There will be a large number of engineering problems, which naturally require the most cutting-edge advanced technology to achieve.

This cutting-edge technology can only be understood by the smartest engineer's head, and other professions can't even think about it.

Because the storage capacity of the brain chip is limited, and the number of nerve cells in the human brain is also limited, it is impossible to install the knowledge of another industry if it is installed with knowledge of one industry.

Unless this is not a normal human brain, as soon as the idea came to mind, a lot of strange things appeared in Yan Ling's mind.

Human-faced spiders, octopus monsters, scythe cockroaches, six-armed double-faced people, and all kinds of creatures that ordinary people can't imagine.

Recalling her past experience dealing with these monsters, a trace of unconcealable fear flashed across Yan Ling's face.

Lin Yuan noticed it: "What are you afraid of?"

Yan Ling immediately came back to his senses, and he smiled coldly: "If you are lucky enough to go all the way into the City of Stars, you will naturally know what I am still afraid of."

After a pause, he added another sentence: "Let me tell you, in the entire Sky Project, I am just an insignificant little officer."

Lin Yuan was a little puzzled: "Insignificant? A god-level organ?"

These two words shouldn't be related, right?
A gloating expression appeared on Yan Ling's face, but he stopped talking.

Lin Yuan didn't ask any further questions. He continued to operate Yanling's brain chip and read the defense schedule of the Tianqiong Project from it.

This plan is so grand, and the defense force is also very terrifying, gathering the most elite fighters and the most advanced weapons of the city of stars.

The defensive tasks that Yan Ling was responsible for were only a small part of it, but it was enough for Lin Yuan to go deeper.

After quickly browsing the schedule and loading it into the Titan's main control brain, Yan Ling was worthless.

Yan Ling was very sensitive, and immediately felt it: "Are you going to kill me?"

Lin Yuan smiled slightly: "Yes, I'm going to do it."

"Then I suggest you act faster and cleanly. Although my status is not high, my disappearance for no reason is enough to let

The city of stars has greatly strengthened its defenses. "

"Heh~ I didn't intend to kill you."

While speaking, Lin Yuan transmitted an information virus into Yan Ling's head: "Sleep, forget everything about today."

Yanling immediately felt a strong sense of drowsiness. After holding on for a while, she finally couldn't take it anymore. She tilted her head and fell asleep.
past.

Lin Yuan washed his head carefully again, and rebuilt the synapses of the memory nerve cells related to today's events.
all over.

In the newly written memory, Yanling killed all directions in "Wild Hunt" as in the past.

After finishing, he quietly sent Yan Ling back to his residence, and then quietly left Ziyang City, rushing to the inner space city: Yundu.

Yundu is the satellite city of Yunmeng Continent, and it is also the last barrier of Yunmeng Continent, and the star ring that Tianqiong plans to build is less than 20 light seconds away from Yunmeng Continent.

On the way, Lin Yuan couldn't help showing a sneer on his face: "The star ring in the sky, the light-speed electromagnetic gun, you put it clearly and clearly, hehe."

Other scientists and engineers in Nanli Starfield couldn't tell, but he could tell at a glance that the so-called light-speed electromagnetic gun was just a gimmick.

Judging from the parts that have been built, this thing does concentrate a lot of cutting-edge technology. If it is built, it should be very powerful, but the most unlikely thing is the light speed electromagnetic gun.

"Or, it's useless at all, maybe it's just an unfinished building that consumes resources in vain."

After thinking about it, Lin Yuan felt that this possibility was quite high.

Of course, what is the use in the end, you have to look closely to understand.

After the orbit adjustment, Ziyang City is not far from Yundu, only less than 10 light seconds away.

After flying for about 10 hours, the Titan battleship arrived near Yundu.

He turned on the high-performance sky survey mirror of the Titan battleship, aimed at the sky area of ​​the sky and star ring, and searched carefully.

With the help of Yanling's data, he quickly found the location of the star ring, but Lin Yuan was a little disappointed by the observation results.

"There is even a thorny skin installed on the outer layer, and now it will not work if you don't get in."

Thorn skin, a special composite material, is cheap and durable, and can absorb most of the electromagnetic waves of the band.

After installing this thing, no matter visible light, x-band, infrared or ultraviolet can't see through, it can only be calculated with the gravitational state detector, but the accuracy will be very poor.

Therefore, if he wants to see the truth, he has to enter the star ring, which is not so difficult.

Just as Lin Yuan was thinking about how to enter, Tai Tan received the air traffic control signal from Yundu.At this time, Titan was pretending to be a civilian spaceship, so he followed the signal guidance and entered the city step by step.

The entry into the city was very smooth. After about half an hour, the Titan successfully docked into the berth.

During this period of time, Lin Yuan didn't think of a way to sneak into Xinghuan safely, so he decided to go to the city to try his luck.

He begins to disengage from the Titan rail car.

While leaving, the main control brain of Titan suddenly broadcast a current political news in Yundu.

"News from our newspaper: In order to deal with powerful enemies and enhance the combat effectiveness of the army, the Supreme Council of the City of Stars officially passed the military's "Freedom of Modification Act". This bill has greatly improved the military's freedom of modification of soldiers' bodies. , All kinds of modified fighters with amazing combat power will serve in the army."

This news shocked Lin Yuan: "Tsk~ Is the era of demons dancing wildly coming?"

The life science and technology of the Nanli Star Field has been very developed, and human beings have reached an incredible level of understanding of their own genes. Once the ethical review is released and the era of free modification is entered, all kinds of monsters will definitely be born.

At that time, the only thing that can define human beings may be a biological brain.

And this is only temporary, once the Pandora's box is opened, it can never be taken back, the free modification of the body is only the first step, and soon, the restrictions on the modification of the brain will be quickly broken through.

At that time, people with double brains, people with giant brains, and even brain councils will appear.

Think about it, a super brain composed of trillions of brain cells is installed inside a huge mechanical weapon, what kind of existence will be born?
How to empathize between two different types of brains?How to understand each other?

What is the meaning of the concept of race?
At that point, 'What is a human being? ’ will be a question that never has a right answer.

At that time, there will be a big conflict between old and new ideas, and various monsters will emerge one after another, unable to understand each other's existence, and society will quickly disintegrate in an unprecedented split.

This is never a good thing.

This is the ultimate backlash against human civilization after the abuse of technology.

The Red Star Alliance also had such a period of chaos. It was a painful time that people don't want to recall, and human civilization was almost destroyed because of it.

Facing this news, Lin Yuan had two thoughts in his mind.

First.

"This must be the saint's idea. To do so is to destroy the city of stars."

the second.

"Being able to pass the bill shows that the military has already done this internally, and now it's just turning illegal into legal. It seems that I have to be careful, and god-level organs are not safe."
