“The test results indicate that this experintal prototype possesses computational capability slightly exceeding that of the main computer of the Asia spaceship that I currently use. Its reliability surpasses the Asia’s main computer by thirty percent, its stability exceeds by sixty-seven percent, its extre load pressure surpasses…”
After reciting a string of data, Xiao Yu suppressed the excitent in his heart, controlled his virtual projection, and shouted loudly, “That’s right, we succeeded! We now possess the light computer!”
“Excellent! We finally possess a technology of a Level 6 Civilization! This ans we have already opened the door to a Level 6 Civilization. At least in computational science, we have already entered a Level 6 Civilization!”
“Finally successful! I believe this is only a beginning. Subsequently, whether in materials science, or in space science, or in casting technology and so on, we will all enter the scope of a Level 6 Civilization!”
At this mont, jubilant cheers resounded throughout the Central Research Academy of Science and its various branch academies. At this mont, whether scientists of the Divine Ark Civilization or scientists of the Level 5 Civilization Alliance, all were cheering and leaping with abandon, celebrating their victory, celebrating that their five years of struggle had finally yielded a bountiful result. At this mont, there was no longer any distinction between the Level 5 Civilization Alliance and the Divine Ark Civilization. Everyone shared a common identity, and that was as a mber of the Divine Ark Civilization.
“This computer is only an experintal prototype. It is not perfect, and its power is too low. It still has an extrely large space for improvent. But even so, such a crude fellow has in all trics comprehensively surpassed the main computer I currently use. This shows that the path ahead of us is correct. As long as we continue the research and developnt of the light computer, we will certainly be able to manufacture more advanced instrunts. We have already achieved a decisive victory. In the research that follows, we no longer need to work so hard, because the most solid bulwark has already been broken by us. What follows is only research at the technical level, and no longer at the scientific level.”
With a broad smile, Xiao Yu continued, “The follow-up research no longer requires our Divine Ark Civilization to pour in such enormous social resources. Then I will make the second step of arrangents. The Computational Academy of Science will still go all out to carry out the research and developnt of the light computer. Other related disciplines will each allocate part of their strength to assist the Computational Academy of Science, but it will no longer be the primary task. The next task will be led by the Space Academy of Science. We will fully research curvature flight technology within strong gravitational fields, as well as space shields, spatial communication thods, even faster curvature flight, and spatial weapons, space-slicing technology. A Level 6 Civilization can already manufacture small universes. What we must do now is develop such technology and manufacture a small universe of our own.”
According to Xiao Yu’s current understanding of the small universe, the small universe had many advantages, the most important being concealnt and safety.
If a civilization developed relying on planets, no matter how concealed, it would always emit so information. It would be fine if no one paid attention, but if soone deliberately searched, as Xiao Yu had when seeking primary civilizations, then it would be impossible to hide. But the small universe was different. First, it could not be observed within the main universe unless the distance closed to a certain degree. That was its concealnt. Then there was safety. In his simulation system, based on existing data, Xiao Yu simulated all attack thods he could conceive of based on Level 6 Civilization technology and ca up with only one thod capable of breaching a small universe’s defenses, and even that thod was very difficult to realize.
A small universe was precisely such a special existence. It was because of it that a Level 6 Civilization was completely separated from Level 5 and lower civilizations, and not rely by faster cruising speed or stronger spaceship attack power.
Regarding the technological differences between a Level 5 Civilization and a Level 6 Civilization, Xiao Yu summarized them roughly in several major aspects. First, naturally, was space technology, which was fundantal. Second was computation technology. Third was materials technology. After mastering space technology, one could increase cruising speed to above one hundred tis the speed of light and travel at that speed whether within a star system or in the cosmic void. In addition, spatial broadcast technology, spatial weapons, manufacturing small universes, space shields, and so on were all based on space technology. The greatest breakthrough in computation technology was the light computer, while the greatest breakthrough in materials technology was the hydrogen-atomic polyr material.
Xiao Yu speculated that it was precisely because of the hydrogen-atomic polyr material, whose performance was so formidable that it could remain stable even at a distance of more than one hundred thousand kiloters from a star, that the massive construction projects of Planet-Class spaceships or Star-Class spaceships could be supported.
The 90s Model Spaceship that Xiao Yu had obtained, as well as the Blood Blade Squad’s spaceship captured from the Guardian Civilization, had both been confird as manufactured from hydrogen-atomic polyr material.
Xiao Yu himself had also mastered so thods for manufacturing hydrogen-atomic polyr material, but the material he produced still had a large gap from that made by those established Level 6 Civilizations. Still, in any case, he had finally gotten through the door.
There was also the rudintary version of the light computer, and the rudintary version of the spatial fluctuation weapon; the spatial fluctuation weapon was the prototype of a genuine spatial weapon. In these three aspects, Xiao Yu had already made achievents across the board. Therefore, now, saying that Xiao Yu was a Level 6 Civilization was actually not wrong.
What Xiao Yu needed to do now was to go further in these three aspects, consolidate his scientific system, and develop more advanced instrunts of all kinds.
With the cohesion ford by struggling toward a common goal, the scientific strata of the two civilizations had completely fused. This fusion brought trendous scientific driving force. After another five years passed, the first giant light computer was manufactured.
Just as Xiao Yu had predicted at the beginning, this giant light computer indeed possessed computational power more than ten thousand tis greater than the computer Xiao Yu currently used. Xiao Yu joyfully installed it into the Asia spaceship, and then transferred himself into it.
Xiao Yu’s computational power increased by more than ten thousand tis in that instant.
Before this, Xiao Yu had always been troubled by insufficient computational power. For example, if he focused on scientific research, he could not carry out large-scale construction tasks and could not launch large-scale wars. If he focused on construction, other projects that consud relatively large computational power could not proceed. But now, all those problems were gone.
At this mont, in this star system, the computational power Xiao Yu invested in scientific research and construction each accounted for about forty-five percent of the total computational power, with the remaining ten percent of computational power allocated by Xiao Yu, with the utmost caution, to other key aspects. In the days of insufficient computational power, Xiao Yu had learned to live thriftily, ticulously allocating computational power. But now, all such troubles were gone.
A full ten thousand tis the computational power! This ant that Xiao Yu could simultaneously launch, in ten thousand places, scientific research and construction tasks on the scale of the current star system. It ant Xiao Yu could simultaneously control more than one hundred billion warships at the current level. It ant Xiao Yu could digest and resolve all the scientific computation tasks that had previously piled up, and could satisfy various computational demands at the fastest speed in future research tasks.
At this mont, Xiao Yu felt like a sudden nouveau riche, like an ordinary family that lived thriftily suddenly receiving a five million grand prize.
“So much computational power…” Xiao Yu sighed softly. “How should I use it…”
“Then there will be no scruples at all. Launch all scientific research projects. If manpower is insufficient, I will pile it up with computational power. Comnce all construction tasks. Everything we can do now, start it all!”
After Xiao Yu issued the new mobilization order and explained the current situation, the entire scientific community boiled over. Innurable construction or computation requests were submitted to Xiao Yu, and Xiao Yu, without exception, satisfied them all.
“Need an entire planet to build a base in order to test curvature flight technology within strong gravitational fields? No problem. One year from now the construction of that project will be completed.”
“Need to construct three billion curvature space acceleration bases to study even faster curvature flight thods? Very well. At most one year and I can complete the construction.”
“Hm, the transport ship capacity is insufficient? A small matter. I will imdiately build one million transport ships.”
“Resources within the star system are insufficient? Cannot keep up with supply? All right, I will imdiately dispatch a long-range fleet to haul over fifty stars and three hundred planets from other sectors.”
“Need to research the latest theories of war? I will imdiately build two million warships. You can take them to conduct battles. All warships will be personally operated by , but command authority will be in your hands. However you command is how I will fight. I will not express any opinions on the course of battle.”
—
After the giant light computer was put into use, all those things that these scientists had not even dared to think about before were all realized. Under such circumstances, all the scientists were brimming with enthusiasm. Because they discovered that the Divine Ark Civilization was truly a good place to research science. Here, at the very least, the leader of the civilization would not refuse their material requests in certain aspects because the industrial base needed to preferentially supply a war or maintain social operation, or because of insufficient resources, insufficient manpower, and so on.
Xiao Yu was fully capable of satisfying all demands up and down the entire social system of the Divine Ark Civilization simultaneously.
Under Xiao Yu’s powerful push, the technology of the entire Divine Ark Civilization once again began a new round of rapid, leapfrog developnt. Xiao Yu could already clearly feel that a trendous, earth-shaking transformation was waiting for him just ahead.
