Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

"This is……"

"Proxima Centauri civilization's detector?"

Looking at the model presented on the holographic projection, Zhao Zijie was slightly stunned and immediately asked.

Lu Yongchang nodded and confirmed Zhao Zijie's question: "Not bad."

"Unlike starships, with our current technology, small detectors can be made into spheres."

"This can greatly increase the strength of the detector, so it can withstand higher accelerations and have stronger maneuverability."

"Of course, they are similar on the outside, but they are completely different on the inside."

"Unlike the showy stuff of the Proxima Centauri civilization, the detector I designed has real detection capabilities."

As he spoke, Lu Yongchang reached out and dragged the holographic projection in front of him.

The star map of the Proxima Galaxy appeared in front of Zhao Zijie.

Proxima Centauri b, which has turned orange due to dust, suddenly appears in the center of the picture.

In the picture, densely packed detectors fly in a radiating pattern from near Proxima Centauri b.

"With Proxima Centauri b as the center, within ten days, we can achieve comprehensive monitoring of the area within 1AU."

Speaking, Lu Yongchang shrugged: "Of course, you can also explore further areas, but this will consume a lot of zero's computing power."

Zhao Zijie's eyes showed a bit of wonder.

If we had this technology during the war with Proxima Centauri civilization...

I think it can reduce a lot of unnecessary sacrifices!

It's a pity that there is no if in the world.

"Any other questions?"

Looking at Zhao Zijie who was staring blankly at the holographic projection, Lu Yongchang asked softly.

Zhao Zijie suddenly came to his senses and quickly withdrew his eyes filled with wonder.

"Of course." He nodded and continued, "It's a question of the type of battleship."

Seeing Lu Yongchang frowning, he quickly explained.

"We currently have too few types of warships, which is the biggest drawback."

"The [Golden Crow] battleship's combat capabilities are indeed good."

"But during the Battle of Proxima Centauri, it exposed its greatest flaw."

“Not enough flexibility.”

"Facing the siege of a large number of small battleships, the [Golden Crow] battleship is likely to face the situation of 'too many ants kill the elephant'."

Lu Yongchang nodded thoughtfully.

"I see."

"You mean, we want to learn from the Proxima Centauri civilization and build a large number of small warships?"

"But we don't have that many starship pilots."

"Besides, it is not difficult to see from the Battle of Proxima Centauri that compared with large battleships, small battleships have a higher battle damage rate."

Zhao Zijie shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, professor, you misunderstood."

"What I mean is that the [Golden Crow] battleship is equipped with a large number of small suicide drones."

"No need to use it normally."

"They will only be released when faced with a siege by small warships."

"Under Zero's control, these drones can be used as consumables to hinder enemy attacks."

Now, Lu Yongchang completely understood.

He smiled bitterly and nodded: "That's a good idea."

"It's just...as a result, the resource consumption has increased a lot."

Small swarm detectors, suicide drones...

He could even imagine how much resources these two gadgets would consume once a war started!

Zhao Zijie spread his hands helplessly.

This is not an issue that he is responsible for.

While recording Zhao Zijie's proposal, Lu Yongchang asked: "Is there anything else?"

Upon hearing the question, Zhao Zijie frowned and hesitated for a while.

"There is one more problem..."

"It's just that this may not be easy to solve."

"Tell me about it." Lu Yongchang said directly without raising his head.

"The strength of the battleship hull."

Zhao Zijie smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Professor, you also know that we have no good defense against the attack from Proxima Centauri."

"Of course, according to my observations, the Proxima Centauri civilization also faces this problem."

Lu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, then showed a relieved smile.

"I thought it was something, but it turned out to be this..."

"...Professor?" Zhao Zijie looked at Lu Yongchang beside him with confusion.

"Don't worry, I already have a solution to this problem."

Zhao Zijie: "???"

…

After a few minutes.

A rush of footsteps came from outside the door.

Then, the door of the command center suddenly opened.

"Professor, are you looking for me?"

A young voice came from the door.

Lu Yongchang reached out to open the electromagnetic adsorption device on his seat, stood up with a smile, and waved to the visitor.

Seeing this, the young man hurriedly jogged a few steps and came to Lu Yongchang.

"Professor, this is..."

Zhao Zijie's eyes showed some doubts.

This young man is a bit unfamiliar.

"Come on, let me introduce you first."

After speaking, Lu Yongchang pointed at the young man and said, "Tao Yuda."

"The proud disciple of Academician Cao Liangcai."

Zhao Zijie suddenly realized.

"This, Zhao Zijie..."

Before Lu Yongchang finished speaking, Tao Yuda said excitedly: "I know!"

"Commander of the First Fleet, Zhao Zijie."

Lu Yongchang smiled and shook his head.

"Not anymore."

Tao Yuda looked confused: "???"

In just a short moment, an apologetic smile appeared on his face: "I'm sorry, I..."

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Yongchang laughed dumbly, "He is now the tactical commander-in-chief of the human fleet."

Tao Yuda: "?!"

"General, commander in chief?!"

"Then Professor, you..."

Tao Yuda said hesitantly.

"Me?" Lu Yongchang's smile grew stronger, "I am the commander-in-chief of fleet science and technology."

"????"

Seeing Tao Yuda's confused look, Lu Yongchang couldn't help laughing.

Zhao Zijie on the side also looked at Tao Yuda with a smile on his face.

Later, Lu Yongchang briefly explained the fleet dual command system that was about to be announced.

After figuring it out, Tao Yuda's face was full of embarrassment.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

Lu Yongchang put away the smile on his face slightly and adjusted the holographic projection in front of him.

"I called you here for a scientific research task."

Tao Yuda's expression suddenly became serious.

He subconsciously tugged at the corners of his clothes that were floating in the air, trying to make them neater.

"Professor, tell me."

"At that time, you should have participated in the research and development of nanorobots, right?" Lu Yongchang said unhurriedly.

Tao Yuda was stunned, and his eyes were a little touched: "Yes, Professor, you still remember me!"

Lu Yongchang waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, I saw it from Ling's side."

Tao Yuda: "..."

"Cough!" Lu Yongchang coughed lightly.

"None of that matters."

"Anyway, I read the comprehensive evaluation given by Zero. You performed well in the last research and development task."

"Now, there is a new research and development task for you."

Holographic projection screen transformation.

"Starship Adaptive Repair Technology"

"Using nanorobots to achieve autonomous repair of the damaged shell of the starship."
