The development of science and technology cannot tolerate any fraud; in the universe, scientists use their lives to explore the true meaning of the universe! Unlike spiritual practice, which only concerns oneself, scientific exploration is all-round. Whether it is materials, energy, time or space, they are all areas of scientific exploration.
Virtual object technology has allowed human beings to initially come into contact with the edge of "creation"; while warp engine and energy crystallization technology have given human beings the initial ability to challenge time and space. Now, the warp engine system is undergoing final corrections. Now, the time has reached 607 in the imperial calendar; the Lieyan family has stayed here on earth for 70 years. It took seventy years and the combined power of two civilizations to develop the warp engine.
Seventy years is too long, enough time to change a lot. Especially in seventy years, it is impossible for the people of the Lieyan family to still live in space; naturally, the Central Empire (Dianping Novel Mobile Version) divided an area of 10,000 square kilometers on Venus for them to live. In relatively concentrated urbanization, 10,000 square kilometers is enough to accommodate a population of 200 million. Of course, this requires much stricter technological and ecological requirements. Looking around, they are all 100-meter-high buildings. So far, due to the weak crust, no buildings over 100 meters are allowed on Venus. Of course, except for scientific research and military.
In the beginning, there was very little communication between the Lieyan family and Venus; after all, they were different civilizations, and the Shengyang Empire, where the Lieyan family was located, also played the role of an invader. Even if Zhang Jingyuan hadn't appeared to speak, there would have been demonstrations in Venus against the Lieyan family settling here.
But 70 years is enough time to change a lot; gradually. The two sides began to communicate, began to understand each other, and even began to translate each other's languages; the factory set up by the Lieyan family here and some of the unique products produced gradually entered the purchasing range of daily necessities for humans on earth. For example, aircraft, computers, fashion items, works of art, etc. from foreign civilizations.
As for the Lieyan family, because their appearance is similar to that of humans on earth, over time, intermarriage is inevitable. Of course, for the time being, after the two parties get married, there is no way to have offspring, and the genetic gap is a bit large; but this does not hinder love.
As for future generations. Generally, all of the man's genes plus some of the woman's genes are used. Carry out in vitro fertilization to reproduce offspring.
Regarding the intermarriage between the two parties, both the Lieyan family and the empire acquiesced. Because intermarriage is conducive to integration! Humanity wants to enter the Pearl Star Territory. Partners are needed; the same is true for the Flame Family. Earth humans. Already qualified enough to cooperate as a partner. In this case, let’s start with intermarriage. Again, here's an experiment: the empire wants to do it through intermarriage and so on. Leaving some scientists and talents from the Lieyan Family to further explore the culture, knowledge, history, etc. of the Lieyan Family; similarly, the Lieyan Family also has the same idea. Especially in terms of cultivation, the Lieyan family has always wanted to obtain the cultivation methods of humans on earth, rather than simply practicing Qigong.
However, 70 years is still a short time to complete the edification; so far, the Lieyan family can only simply understand Qigong practice. Qigong will no longer be translated as “air in the body.”
However, in recent years, the Republic has done several things that made the Empire unhappy; some rulers and wealthy people want to poach others; mainly because in these years, the average life span of the Empire has begun to approach the 200-year-old mark; while in the Republic, The average life expectancy is still around 90 years old! This obviously did not satisfy the rulers. It's just the gap in technology, social policies, etc. that keeps this gap like this. Environmental pollution, etc., seriously affect the improvement of life span.
Over the years, as Zhang Jingyuan gradually faded from the forefront, the subsequent emperors very much wanted to bring the earth under the empire's control; conflicts between the two sides broke out every day or two. It's just that the Republic is now besieged on all sides and is unable to form an effective counterattack against the Empire. Also, the core of the Republic has now moved to Barnard's system, and the earth has been gradually abandoned. But giving up does not mean that you are willing to hand it over to imperial rule.
In such a gap, it can be imagined that the current social ecology of the earth can be described as backward; not many top scientists work in the empire's research laboratories.
It's just that the Lieyan family is not stupid. You have nothing, why should you come to win over me. What? Give us the earth? Ha, sorry, we don’t care about a planet! For cosmic civilization, what is important is a complete, independently ruled galaxy, not a planet caught in the middle.
In order to please the empire, the Lieyan family "inadvertently" leaked this information during the conversation. Then, the Lieyan family's reputation in the empire became even better.
In the 610th year of the Imperial Calendar, after nearly a hundred years of continuous technological integration and explosion, humans on Earth built a total of 50 spaceships with a distance of 1,000 kilometers, of which 5 were built here in the solar system; two of them were completely copied spaceships of the Lieyan family. It can also be regarded as a learning and imitation. Now, in three years, these five spacecraft have all been replaced with warp engines.
In addition to these, humans on Earth have also built more than two thousand spacecraft with a diameter of 100 kilometers, all of which use warp engines. Using warp engines, under existing technical conditions, it can achieve five times the speed of light by consuming a lot of energy. Generally, every 100 million kilometers of flight, the warp engine can be activated and suddenly travel 10 billion kilometers.
With such technology, starting in the middle of 610, humans on earth began a new wave of expansion of the universe.
In addition, the development and miniaturization of the warp engine have enabled the mecha's space individual combat capabilities to be realized.
At the end of the 610th year of the Imperial Calendar, the Lieyan family was finally determined to return; however, more than 70 years of development and integration, and more than two hundred years of estrangement, have made many of the descendants of the Lieyan family ready to settle in the empire; of course, there are also some imperial citizens who are due to marriage. , I want to go to the Pearl Star Territory to see something.
But before the game started in Lieyan Family, Lieyan Ming Ronghui came to Zhang Jingyuan and said: So what, Mr. Zhang, let’s have a friendly match.
"Okay!" Zhang Jingyuan smiled immediately, and he immediately understood the mentality of the Lieyan family. In the personal superpower competition, the Lieyan family has suffered losses for years. The best result was only in the galaxy league, where they passed the knockout stage, and were kicked off the stage in the challenge after the knockout round. The so-called challenge competition means that after the elimination round, some dissatisfied people can challenge the winner.
Now, they are about to leave the empire. Obviously, the Lieyan family wants to regain some face. As for the challenge, the Lieyan family is also very clear. Forget about individual challenges, how about we compete with mechas. The Lieyan family is self-aware, and relying on ordinary superpowers to compare with practitioners is just asking for abuse. But mecha technology is different. This is more of a contest of technological power.
The location of the game is a military base and has not been made public. The two parties involved, in addition to the participating soldiers, also included high-level officials from both parties. It's just that Boss Zhang doesn't mean much to such "child's play". The person presiding over this game is the eighth emperor of the empire-Zhang Xingyu, the former governor of Mars. In order to adapt to the development of the new era, Zhang Shengtang had to voluntarily abdicate and let Zhang Xingyu, who was full of radical ideas, take the throne.
There is nothing verbose, soldiers do things simply.
An imperial officer with a height of 1.8 meters and a dark complexion strode down, stood in the middle of the field, facing the Lieyan family, "Who of you from the Lieyan family is responsible, come down and discuss it. How about winning, what about losing? Dryly The competition is not interesting, how about we add some luck?
Oh, by the way, my name is Li Hongyuan, from the Imperial Count family. ”
This Li family is the descendant of Li Guoyi, an expert in spaceship development in the master company at that time. Regardless of the fact that the descendants have never produced particularly amazing people, and have been passed down for more than 600 years, the duke family at that time has been downgraded to the earl family. In fact, many families were "downgraded" back then. Under the conditions of the reduced hereditary system, if the descendants cannot contribute to the empire, they can only be demoted continuously until the title disappears completely. In order to avoid completely losing their strength, many families began to seek new paths. For example, the Long family established the Sky Eagle Empire!
Of course, in order to retain talents, the empire is constantly adjusting its strategies; however, retaining talents is not the main thing. The most important thing is to have a good foundation for talent cultivation and discovery. For more than six hundred years, the empire has remained strong, not only because Zhang Jingyuan has been watching silently from behind, but also closely related to the social system and talent selection mechanism.
Under such circumstances, the existing nobles had to work hard to express themselves to prevent future generations from truly becoming "ordinary citizens." In addition, with the adjustment of the empire and the popularization of social practice, the "noble people" level that was flourishing for a while has become history.
"Me!" The Lieyan family was not to be outdone. A strong man of two meters and three meters, like an iron tower. The practice of Qigong has qualitatively improved the Lieyan family's personal abilities and physical fitness, and many talents have emerged as a result.
The strong man walked up to Li Hongyuan with piercing eyes, "The Lieyan family, Lieyan, Ming, Hengxing. Since there is a bonus, how about a one-hundred-kilometer spaceship?"
The Lieyan family was really determined, and even took out a spaceship hundreds of kilometers away as a bet. This is obviously not something that the officer Lieyan Ming Hengxing can decide. The cost of building a spacecraft covering hundreds of kilometers is as high as the annual gross production value of Venus.
"Okay!" Li Hongyuan didn't talk nonsense. "For the sake of fairness and to reflect the combat effectiveness of both sides as much as possible, how about ten games?"
"Ten games? That's reasonable." Both of them have a military style. After a brief discussion, the decision was made. In the ten rounds, there are no restrictions except that no one can be injured or disabled, and no long-range attack weapons can be used. Just like a normal game. On the way back, Li Hongyuan had a sneer on his lips, "Anyone who is not of my race must have a different heart. I will make you live under the fear of China forever, without daring to have any different intentions!" A small competition involves It's not just the playing surface. This is a collision between two civilizations and races. This is actually a battle between top and bottom! (To be continued...)
