Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Wim didn't have a deep understanding of the details of the technology. But he could see the enthusiasm in his technical advisor's eyes. The knowledge of this time traveler was quite solid, and he would probably be a mainstay in any civilization.

As the regent, he had to maintain his composure and dignity, and remain calm in the face of emergencies, so that the people he ruled could feel at ease. So even when he received good and exciting news, he still tried to keep a straight face, nodded, and acted quite calmly in front of the camera.

Until a loud noise was heard from the laboratory next door, and the cheers of the elves were heard there.

"Success! The experiment of synthesizing substrong interaction materials was successful!"

"This intensity and cost have far exceeded our expectations."

"The most conservative estimate is that after this material is made into armor, the spacecraft can also ensure that it can travel on the surface of a star for more than 2,000 hours without any damage. This is enough for the spacecraft to travel back and forth between the stars hundreds of times."

"We need to be able to mass-produce this material as soon as possible. As long as we can mine enough stellar matter, the problem of resource depletion can be fundamentally solved."

"If all this is true, perhaps it won't be long before we can ensure that every resident is fully fed."

"Yes, my children have become so thin. After the incident on Rainbow Island, the rations have been further reduced. If they continue to be reduced like this, people may really starve to death."

It is hard to imagine that a race that can already build a corona station and tear its own planet into pieces would still face hunger, but as residents of a planet whose resources are about to be exhausted, they have become accustomed to this kind of life.

In the most difficult period, there were even indicators of starvation deaths in the entire civilization. This was an unimaginable horrific social state for any civilization, and it was necessary to forcibly reduce the number of individuals in the civilization to maintain the operation of the civilization.

That was the period when the Corona Station had just been built and was not yet able to generate any income. Because the income of the Corona Station was overestimated, it led to a serious shortage of resources. In order to maintain the operation of more important equipment, the energy and materials of the organic production equipment had to be squeezed. During that most difficult time, whether there would be food rations every day even required drawing lots. A very small number of people were destined to starve to death, making that period of time a past that countless elves were reluctant to recall.

But now the times seem to have ushered in a major turning point. Resource depletion is finally going to leave them behind. Happiness comes so suddenly that even the elves present can't believe it.

Even Wim, who had just been pretending to be calm, could no longer remain calm. He immediately rushed to the direction of the laboratory and excitedly grabbed the collar of a researcher: "Really? Did the experiment really succeed?"

"Absolutely true!" The researcher was also very excited. Although the era of abundant materials will take some time to arrive, this time point is obviously not far away.

“Take me to see the experimental site. I want to see the experiment repeated!” Wim has been under too much pressure these days. His mother died on the spot because of the failure of the experiment, and even her body was not found. It is impossible for him to say that he is not under pressure. In addition, Airem’s society has been on the brink of collapse in recent days. He has to weave lies to make people believe that although the experiment has failed, it has obtained important data and achieved phased results. He is forced to let the scientific research team forge a large number of experimental results to deceive the people and give them confidence to ensure that the society will not collapse because of this.

But lies will eventually be exposed, and when lies are exposed, society will inevitably usher in greater chaos. Under such pressure, Wim wishes he could give himself a san check every day to see if he has been driven crazy.

Now there is finally real good news, and it is good news that may really change the entire situation of Airem. How can he not be excited?

The researcher brought Wim to the test site. Thick glass separated the inside and outside of the test site. Inside the test site, the manufactured substrong interaction force materials were being hung on heavy metal hinges, and in the distance were ultra-high-power lasers and neutron emitters.

The lasers and high-energy particle streams released by large scientific research equipment can easily penetrate the entire warship.

Wim was familiar with these devices, but they were not used in combat before. Instead, they were used to clean up meteorites in space.

The materials produced with their current technology cannot withstand this level of impact with such a thin thickness. Not to mention such a thin thickness, even if it were thicker by a hundred times, it would not be able to withstand it.

As the equipment finished gathering energy, a bright beam of light shot out and silently bombarded the target. The viewing window of the laboratory was filled with white light, and it was impossible to see what happened at that moment. But as the white light disappeared, the material sample hanging on the target did not show any damage, only the hinge connecting the target became red hot under the high temperature.

Wim took off his sunglasses and carefully examined the material sample with his own eyes. He did not see any burn marks or scratches on it. As if to verify whether what he saw was a dream or reality, he put on his sunglasses again and said to the researcher beside him: "Repeat the experiment again!"

In the past, such a waste of resources order would not be executed immediately even if it was issued by the Regent. However, the researchers were also caught up in a kind of frenzy and started the equipment again without hesitation. Once again, white light filled the entire observation window. Even through the sunglasses, the strong light still stung the eyes. I don’t know if it was really stung by the strong light or for some other reason. Wim’s cheeks were red with tears flowing down his cheeks, but he still gave the order: "Repeat the experiment again."

Lan Nuo took a break from his busy schedule to take a look at the surveillance video. He saw the elves flashing white light again and again in the laboratory. He felt that this scene was very similar to the little match girl who lit up matches one by one in the cold night just to see the illusion of her deceased relatives in the shining light.

But what they saw was not an illusion, but real hope for the future.

"Order all factories to mobilize resources and fully cooperate with the production capacity of the new spacecraft armor. All major research institutes should design spacecraft expansion components that are compatible with the new armor as soon as possible. We must let everyone see the changes brought about by the new technology in the shortest possible time!"

After the seventh experiment, Wim finally stopped wasting resources and regained his sanity as the regent of a race and a civilization.

All the major research institutes started to operate rapidly. No matter how strong Lan Nuo was, he was still an individual and could not compete with the creativity of the group. Especially since this was a very tenacious civilization. The more they were forced into a desperate situation, the more they could burst out with creativity. Especially when they saw hope.

The enthusiasm of the one billion elves in the entire civilization was aroused, and they quickly began the design and production of a new model of spacecraft.

Considering the need to put it into use as soon as possible, the new spacecraft designed was basically a modification of the original Corona Station. Although only a layer of outer armor was added, the pressure on the spacecraft shield was directly reduced by more than 90% while ensuring the outer armor was sealed. Each time entering a star, it could only barely break even. Now it can already achieve pure profit.

In order to let the public know the good news as soon as possible, the spaceship that I came out of took only three days to complete the transformation of the hull. This thing looks ugly. Pieces of armor spliced ​​it like a fragmentation grenade, and the thrusters were exposed at the reserved nozzles. The style of the painting was different, but such a thing remained motionless under the baptism of the solar wind.

In the live broadcast to all the Elves of Aerym, the spaceship bravely rushed to the surface of the star, cutting through the waves. Under the wash of endless stellar matter, the surface armor was not damaged at all.

Although all the Airim elves did not stop their work, they were all watching the live broadcast on their projection screens.

The live broadcast lasted for 20 hours, and the audience rating exceeded 80% almost throughout. When the spacecraft loaded with core materials landed back to the Island of Stars intact, and injected the hot and highly radioactive stellar materials into the giant heavy element fusion reactor, deafening cheers rang out across the Island of Stars.

  Everyone witnessed with their own eyes how this spaceship, which seemed to be cobbled together, passed through the stellar storm unscathed and brought back materials that were extremely valuable to them. All the elves who had received higher education understood what this meant to them.

"I don't know how to thank you anymore." Amid the cheers of countless elves, Wim hugged Lanno. This was probably the only way he could think of to express his feelings.

Lan Nuo shook his head: "Actually, you don't have to thank me so much. The universe is so vast. Even if you can't develop the technology to travel far, as long as you can persist, sooner or later other civilizations will discover you. As for what that means to you? I'm not sure. But it's better than disappearing silently.

Maybe the relationship between civilizations in this universe is more tolerant than that in my original universe. My universe will initially develop into a dark forest. A huge reason is that there was no space teleportation technology at first.

According to our deduction, if space teleportation technology exists, wars will still break out frequently between civilizations, but the environment between civilizations may be much stronger than the state of the Dark Forest.

Those of you who have observed the starry sky should have discovered that there must be other civilizations in this universe, otherwise many celestial phenomena cannot be explained at all. The fact that they can be discovered by you probably means friendliness itself. As long as life survives, it will always find a way out on its own. "

Wim obviously couldn't listen to all this now. In order to celebrate this historic moment and to make the people more convinced that the days of resource depletion were finally over, he issued an order that made the entire Star Island cheer again.

"Today everyone can have one more natural crop in their food ration! To celebrate our revolutionary change in technology!"

This extremely shabby yet luxurious celebration will be remembered by every elf of Aerym and in their history.

Each person was given a natural crop, which seemed too shabby to celebrate the technological explosion. But each person was given a natural crop, which was too extravagant for this civilization that was already on the verge of resource depletion. Almost all of their resource crops were concentrated in the ecological dome, and the rest of the species were almost extinct. Only they themselves relied on synthetic organic matter to maintain a huge population.

This extravagant celebration also strengthened the confidence of every elf. If there had not been a revolutionary technological breakthrough, how could anyone be willing to ration the extremely precious natural crops?

Even so, most people are reluctant to eat their own best products after getting them, but instead find transparent containers such as water cups at home and transplant these crops into them, hoping that they can grow and germinate.

Even when resources were no longer scarce, many people still kept their first potted plants. When they were old, they would hold the plant specimens in the frames and tell their descendants about their experiences when they were young with a smile, watching the incredible expressions on their faces and marveling at the fact that their civilization had such a past.

All of this is a story for later. While new technologies are driving the rapid development of Airim civilization...

On the Giant Turtle Platform, Hao Ren was busy setting the coordinates.

Lily sat in the seat closest to the driving seat, pretending to be the deputy captain like a big-tailed wolf.

"Our destination this time is the next universe, and we can only get there through the transformation of the World Gate. You all should go back to your seats, otherwise there will be problems when the information is transformed. This machine will not be responsible!" The data terminal surrounded Becky who was looking around curiously, urging the mercenary girl to quickly return to her seat.

Apparently, the reason why this person appeared in the real world was because a certain space mage who was guarding the dynasty made a mistake during the transmission process.

Also appearing in the real world is Hilda, the Elf Queen of Airem. This time they traveled through the World Gate in order to send this traveler back to her hometown.

At this time, Hilda had already sat on the seat of the spaceship, and the worry about her hometown on her face could not be wiped away. At the last moment of her journey, she saw the failure of the experiment and the Rainbow Island turned into ashes in the explosion. She knew very well what a heavy blow this would bring to her people.
