Epoch of Twilight

Of course, in Luo Yuan’s eyes, what’s more important is that this new warship can accommodate more people, and more than imagination.

Don't say five million. With the population density of the mother ship as the standard, even a billion people are not a problem. High-rise buildings have always been a weapon to accommodate the population. Even if it is only a town-sized area, it can accumulate near China before the end of the world. The miracle of the population.

However, at the rate of growth of human beings, it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years to fill this spacecraft.

Over the years, in the secret experimental factory of the B-Star Mothership, there has been no closure of human cloning, only a slight reduction in the number of production. In ten years, the human population has increased by about two million, and the total human population has reached eight million. .

It is not impossible to clone more, nor to avoid exposure, but to have a serious shortage of nurses and teachers.

The number of people who do not sleep, the number is very small, the total number is less than 500,000, most of them are scientific researchers, and there are only more than 30,000 special nurses. The clones are not products, not the powerful clones of Luo Yuan. Body, no more tube after leaving the nutrient solution.

The nascent cloned baby is quite fragile, and it is not much different from ordinary people. At most, it is only slightly stronger. Whether it is feeding or squatting, someone has to take special care.

It was not until half a year later that they began to show abnormal performances, walking independently, and learning to speak. At this time, they basically did not have to take care of them.

These cloned children can't be seen in the virtual world. They all stay in the mother ship welfare home to study and live. They are not active in the virtual world. Their cognitive and discerning abilities are far from mature. After spending a long time in the virtual world, it is easy to confuse. The difference between reality and virtual.

In fact, don't say that children, many adults, have this trend. Every time you leave the virtual world, there will be a feeling of being separated from the world. For them, the reality is only to meet the physiological needs, most of them. Time is in the virtual world, where you live, work there, and have fun there.

What is reality? What is false? This definition, which is becoming more and more real in the virtual world, has begun to become blurred.

This is an inevitable phenomenon in the virtual world for a long time, and it is an inevitable sequel. However, Luo Yuan does not want to correct this. The greatest value of those researchers is to dedicate wisdom. As for where to work, as long as it does not affect, how to do it. All right.

......

How powerful this new warship is, no matter how advanced it is, it has no effect on today's human beings. Humans can only stay in this old Bronx mother ship, and can only carry out technical verification in the virtual world.

There is no village before, no shop, no empty space, no resources, even if the goddess of luck cares about the discovery of an asteroid, it is impossible to build a giant spaceship of 10 billion tons.

This is a giant that needs to be built with a planet as a mining area. It is not a matter of one or two asteroids. The construction work can only be carried out if it is flying to the Barnard galaxies.

It also takes more than ten years to fly.

However, after more than ten years, with the advancement of human science and technology, this spacecraft is estimated to be invisible. This is a spaceship destined to remain in the drawings. In the future, it can only be in the virtual world to see its past style.

............

After visiting the spacecraft, the pedestrians took the aircraft and rushed to the next location. The space here has become a testing ground for human military forces. In addition to the spacecraft and factories, there are many strange space defense weapons floating in the air.

"This is one of the components of the armed satellite defensive system designed by the Tiandun Weapons Research Institute. It weighs 300 million tons and has ten sets of giant nuclear fusion furnaces. It has a gamma ray gun and a 12-speed fast-fired electromagnetic defensive array. , intelligent capture of the target, if set, it will have 18,000, covering the entire planet."

The Tiandun Weapons Design Institute is one of the largest research institutes specializing in the design of space defense weapons. Nearly two-thirds of the space defense weapons here are designed by them. This time, it’s hard to wait for Luo Yuan and a group of leaders to inspect. Space defense, the director of the design institute quickly got a 12-point effort and introduced it carefully.

However, Luo Yuan only heard this figure, and he could not help but frown: "300 million tons, more than 10,000 quantities, is this resource consumed?"

"This..." The dean of the design institute suddenly said: "This is designed by some young people. We will correct it immediately."

"When designing, you can be bold, but you must also connect theory with reality. The reality is not a virtual world. There are not so many resources to mine." Luo Yuan reprimanded.

"The mayor said that this is also what I want to mention. Over the years, these mechanical and military design departments have become more and more daring when it comes to mechanical design. It is beautiful when it comes to big, and more is better. More than three hundred meters high mech, really scared me a bit, what is the use of such a high and so big? If the war occurred, it is not as good as the space fighter, this kind of atmosphere I think should brake." Bi Jianping next to it Road.

They were criticized in turn by the two big men, and the director of the institute was so scared that he did not dare to defend.

"This is still good. You absolutely can't think of the warship that was going to be built before. The first design version is what is the tonnage, 300 billion tons. What do you think these people think?" Tian Jinping laughed, one The deputy old man looks like, but in fact, he is not screaming outside. As a member of the Ministry of Industry, his wrist is tough and his style is strict. His subordinates are not afraid to breathe in front of him.

Luo Yuan said with a smile: "Their virtual world authority is a bit too high. It seems that it needs to be adjusted. Although the supply of unlimited resources has accelerated the efficiency of scientific research, it is easy to make the development of science and technology go into the wrong zone. Barnard's stellar resources are poor. It is difficult to mine. If this continues, our development will be severely restricted."

This is not speculation but reality. According to the data collected by the spacecraft, there are only two rocky planets in this star system, and the others are gaseous planets.

And the star is already a red dwarf, and the light emitted is very dark, causing the planets to be covered with thick layers of ice. These layers are not the shallow layers of the earth, and are thousands or even tens of thousands of meters thick. It is possible that in addition to the relatively easy access to water resources, mining other resources is quite cumbersome and time consuming.

What is more serious is that humans must also consider these planets that look like rocky planets. In fact, the possibility of gas or water state, once true, is undoubtedly a bad news for humans.

In fact, this is not a low probability. The temperature of the galaxy is too low. If the normal gaseous planet is not as large as the spontaneous heat, there is a possibility of freezing, because both methane and hydrogen are good. Can not withstand the low temperature close to absolute zero.
