Chapter 415 Search
After Chen Ming left the office, he once again went to the giant shipyard where the super body was parked.
When he came back, the two directors were still in the main control room here, directing their men to do the preliminary work of studying the captured spacecraft.
This time Chen Ming gave up on the idea of not disturbing him and ran directly into the main control room and asked the two directors: "How is it?"
The ship director was originally paying attention to the supership outside. When he heard Chen Ming's voice, he immediately turned his head and said impatiently: "You are here. If you are not here, we will look for you."
"The technical level of this ship is not different from ours by several generations. It is absolutely possible to work on it. It just so happens that some people from the capital ship project team can be spared, but it is best to recruit more people."
Then he asked cautiously: "You have no idea of putting the technology of this super body on the battleship, do you?"
"No."
"That's good."
Although there is not much difference in the technology of super bodies, it is impossible to analyze, dismantle, study, experiment and apply the technology on the spacecraft within a few years.
The director of the ship planned to start a big project and retire two years ago, just waiting for Chen Ming to finish this project.
If Chen Ming had grown up halfway through, he might have stayed for two more years.
Although it's not impossible if you think about it carefully, a project involving super-body technology will be more valuable than the original one.
But he really wanted to live for two more years.
Chen Ming had already thought about how to use the super body before, so he didn't say much in this regard. And that's not what he came here to talk about now.
"Has the super-body spacecraft data been recorded?
"Okay, the scan has been completed. The most refined 3D modeling is already under construction and will be released soon."
"Then the material properties and ratio have been verified and there is no problem. This material should soon be produced on the planet next door for sample testing."
"To be honest, this is my first time seeing such a special spaceship."
The psychic director on the side saw Chen Ming turning to look at him and said: "The psychic fluctuation characteristics of the two psychic components that control space and time inside have been recorded."
"This psychic component is much more technologically advanced than the spacecraft, and it is more difficult to reproduce."
After listening to the two descriptions, Chen Ming responded with satisfaction: "Okay, I understand."
"In two days, someone should come and ask for the measured spacecraft data. It's still the same as before. The data can be given casually, but the samples will be sent in person."
The ship director said as if to reassure Chen Ming: "Don't worry. Don't we know what to do yet?"
"To be honest, it's pretty cool. In the past, it was our hot faces that pressed against Fan Chao's cold buttocks. Now it's their turn."
The psychic director also nodded in sympathy.
Chen Ming didn't care about this and continued: "Okay, since everything that needs to be done is done, I will take the boat away for a while."
The captain of the ship was a little confused and asked: "Is this ship a pure combat ship? Is there another battle to be fought?"
"That's not true. It's just that this thing can help me drive out and do some things."
"Oh, then you can just drive your boat casually. Why are you asking us? But is it really a good idea to use this boat?"
"You mean time speeds up?"
"Yeah."
"For ordinary people, it is indeed equivalent to using the spaceship at the end of their lives, but it doesn't matter to me."
Chen Ming's body was created, and the accelerated aging of time had an impact on his body, but not much.
When your body ages, repair it. If repair fails, replace it.
As for the aging of consciousness, that is not a problem at all.
When Chen Ming's lost body could survive only by relying on his consciousness.
The aging of his consciousness is no longer affected by any external influence. As long as he still has the idea of living, he cannot die due to the aging of his consciousness.
It can almost be said that unless he wants to die, he will never die.
The mere acceleration of time will not have any impact on him.
Seeing Chen Ming's straightforwardness, the two directors did not say anything, and began to direct the manpower and equipment that had just been dispatched to evacuate, and returned the spacecraft to Chen Ming.
The various data they recorded when Chen Ming was away just now is enough for a period of research.
After Chen Ming got the super body back, he did not board the super body immediately.
Because the super body does not have a cabin designed for people to enter.
So Chen Ming decided to hang up a cabin. Anyway, he only needed to be able to get in. The volume of the cabin was very small compared to the super body itself. This kind of close-fitting equipment can also be accelerated by the time flow core inside the super body.
After completing this minor modification, Chen Ming boarded the ship and controlled the superbody to leave the port, pass through the wormhole in the galaxy, and enter the universe behind the wormhole.
Immediately afterwards, the super body floated quietly near the space station without any movement.
Only Chen Ming, who was in the loading bay, took out the photos that the Minister of Psychics had given his imperial archaeological team at the Cultural Memorial Hall of Shining Civilization.
These photos are said to be photos that were reflected on the wall due to long-term placement of three-dimensional projections on the wall near the bottom floor of the memorial hall. The photos resemble Leviathan, and there is a star map placed next to them.
Chen Ming found the projections of all the Leviathans he saw on it. Except for the Nightmare of the Plane, the others were the first few Leviathans he solved, and the Leviathans he later solved that were parasitic on the planet. Or the Crystal Leviathan has been discovered.
It is determined that these projections are related to Leviathan.
At the same time, it can also be inferred that the star map projection next to it is likely to be related to Leviathan.
Although the star map should be a three-dimensional projection, the projection equipment in the ruins has long been corrupted by time and cannot be repaired. Only a two-dimensional star map has been reflected on the wall for a long time.
Therefore, he cannot directly determine the specific location of these projections in the normal universe.
However, Chen Ming then took out a star map of the universe behind the wormhole that he arranged for the fleet to investigate and record.
This star map was relatively monotonous and empty before, because he only asked his fleet to conduct a very superficial survey of most of the surrounding galaxies.
His fleet is mainly expanding the capacity of the star map and investigating as much information as possible.
But now, some galaxies on this star map have been added with some additional unconfirmed galaxy data.
The Minister of Psychics took the initiative to help Chen Ming get it. According to the star condition of the galaxy, the arrangement of the planets in the galaxy and their distance from the stars, some information is galaxy data that can be determined through this observation method.
Just waiting for Chen Ming to conduct on-site confirmation.
The Minister of Psychics obviously suspected that Leviathan was related to the survivors, so he was very eager to help Chen Ming do this.
However, it is not known whether the survivors are actually nearby and controlling these Leviathan manifestations.
He only knows that the Shining Civilization definitely still has a lot of people left after just passing through the insect movement, and it still has the energy to develop these Leviathan creatures.
The same goes for the residents of the Shining Civilization who stayed in front of the wormhole. They still had the resources and ability to research some very important and powerful technologies, represented by the resurrection mechanical fluid he obtained.
Regardless of whether there is a connection between the star map and the survivors, he should have a high possibility of obtaining some valuable technology based on this star map.
Based on Chen Ming's current level of exploration of the surrounding star field, it is not difficult to compare the star map and the angle of the projection.
However, this star map only records the projections of galaxies where Leviathan exists, and the star map does not indicate the type of Leviathan that exists in each galaxy.
Therefore, Chen Ming could only use the galaxies he knew where the Leviathans were located as a basis to compare them one by one with the two-dimensional projections to confirm the angle of the star map in the real universe.
Chen Ming was misled at first.
The galaxy where he solved the astral phagocytosis was regarded as a galaxy on this two-dimensional star map.
However, he soon realized that the astral phagos in the galaxy where he eliminated the astral phagoses appeared there five years ago and came from other places to breed.
And the age of this star chart is more than five years.
Soon after eliminating the galactic interference from the astral phagocytosis, Chen Ming found the star field of the normal universe corresponding to this two-dimensional star map.
By the way, Chen Ming also identified all the galaxies where Leviathan exists through the star map.
Although due to the angle of the shadow projected on the wall, some galaxies with Leviathan are blocked by other information.
But it’s not a big problem.
The archaeological team had already confirmed the total number of Leviathan projections when taking pictures, which is the total number of Leviathans.
See if the final data can be matched, and you will know whether there are Leviathans in those blocked galaxies.
It was only after Chen Ming verified all the data and confirmed that every galaxy corresponded to Leviathan.
He discovered that there was an extra galaxy on the star map.
This is not just an extra one added when calculating overlapping galaxy projections. The data on the two-dimensional projection is compared with the three-dimensional space. Chen Ming was sure that there was an extra galaxy.
The number of information on the star map is one more than the number of Leviathan projections.
This is interesting.
Chen Ming didn't know which galaxy was extra, but he could verify them one by one.
He opened the super body with this idea in mind.
After confirming the information on hand.
Chen Ming did not continue to wait where he was, and immediately activated the time flow core of the super body, causing the entire super body to enter a time-accelerating posture.
He could feel a slight fragmentation in his consciousness as time accelerated.
This is because his main consciousness located here in the super body also accelerates his thinking when time accelerates, resulting in a sense of separation from the secondary consciousness elsewhere due to the difference in thinking speed.
This is still the time flow core has just started. If time accelerates faster in the future, this feeling will be more obvious.
But it's not a big problem, just resist and it'll be over.
Ordinary psykers might suffer from schizophrenia due to the fast and slow thinking patterns.
But for Chen Ming, he can completely withstand this kind of mental pressure. He has endured mental pressure that is more serious and painful than this. It is just a minor problem with schizophrenia.
And the accelerated thinking brought about by time acceleration has another benefit.
This allows him to think about more things for a longer period of time than in the normal universe.
For some projects that originally took time to research, he was able to produce results in a very short time under normal cosmic conditions.
Although his mental power recovery efficiency does not change much when time is accelerated, because his mental power recovery efficiency mainly depends on the plug-in hive mind, and the Zerg and Machine Race are not accelerated.
But Chen Ming's own mental recovery speed alone was enough for him to remain conscious and continue to do things in such an environment.
Wait a moment.
Chen Ming, who was thinking that time acceleration could not only help him patrol a circle of galaxies where Leviathan might exist faster, but also speed up the research process of the thought acceleration project, suddenly thought of it.
Fan Chao seems to have a special psyker researcher there. He seems to have the ability to research a project that takes a long time to study in a very short time.
Could he also have psychic powers with similar effects?
The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility, but even if it was possible, it had nothing to do with Chen Ming.
Since he already had a super body anyway, he didn't need to think about what others might have on hand.
However, this time acceleration ability can obviously be developed in depth, and maybe some interesting effects can be developed.
As for now, let the super body do what it should do.
The time flow core continues to accelerate.
Just before Chen Ming really drove the super body out, Chen Ming suddenly had a new idea.
He wants to drive the hyperbody into hyperspace.
Hyperspace is a dimension that can significantly shorten space travel time.
It was also the first time humans came into contact with an alternative way of traveling at the speed of light.
So what special effects will there be when the superbody and hyperspace come into contact?
With this idea, Chen Minggang wanted to start the super-body's hyperspace channel engine, but found that the super-body did not have this equipment at all.
There were usually many spaceships equipped with hyperlane engines, so he subconsciously meant that the superbody should have such a device, so much so that he ignored the fact that the superbody actually did not have a hyperlane engine.
Although this is very strange, it seems to make sense.
After all, the super body did not choose to enter hyperspace when it attacked the empire before, but only sailed at high speed in the normal universe.
Although it is true that there is no need for hyperspace channels at super-body speeds, why not go faster if it can be faster?
There must be some reason for this.
Chen Ming felt that he might be a little disappointed next, but he still chose to use psychic energy to modify the super body, and attached an additional hyperspace channel engine.
The super body is not any conventional warship. It is more appropriate to think of it as some kind of mechanical combat weapon.
Especially the battle mode where it splits into two smaller ships when destroyed, more like some automatic weapons than a pure spaceship.
However, it can be installed with a battleship-level hyperspace channel engine, which is not too troublesome.
Install.
start up.
The super body entered hyperspace.
Ten seconds later, Chen Ming controlled the super body and came out again.
Because he found that after the super body entered the hyperspace, the most critical time acceleration effect of the super body was invalidated.
Hyperspace limits the speed of a spacecraft, and spacecraft exceeding a certain speed will be limited to this speed.
The time in this speed unit refers to the time of hyperspace, not the time of the spacecraft itself.
Even though the spacecraft is accelerated by time, compared to hyperspace, time in hyperspace is not accelerated, causing the superbody speed to be limited to a speed that most small and medium-sized spacecraft can reach.
Although its speed is still very fast compared to spacecraft of the same level and size, but compared to the speed of the normal universe, this speed is really nothing.
Now Chen Ming knew why there was no hyperspace channel engine installed on the super body.
I thought I was going one step further, but it turned out that one of the data had a dead upper limit, making it impossible for the other data to be used no matter how big it was.
But fortunately there are such restrictions,
Otherwise, if it could still travel at the speed of light in hyperspace, it would be impossible to keep up with it by any means.
The damage and losses it can cause within the empire will be even greater.
Then there is no other way. The trickery method Chen Ming thought of cannot be used, and he still has to take the serious path.
Chen Ming removed the hyperspace channel engine that had just been installed, looked at the star map again, and planned a route that would cover every galaxy where Leviathan was located.
Chen Ming didn't actually plan to go to Leviathan to see if Leviathan really existed.
Because if Leviathan is not dealt with, there is a high probability that there will be no substantial benefit in going to those places, and it is even possible that the survivor will discover that he already knows the locations of all Leviathan.
The Survivor monitors the surrounding star field very closely. When he fought with Leviathan before, the Survivor obviously noticed every time.
The fact that he's running away from every star system where Leviathan exists this time will obviously be noticed just as well.
If the extra galaxy is really the galaxy where the survivors are, then they may discover Chen Ming's purpose and avoid it in advance.
But if the survivors are really in this place, isn't this good news?
Since it can't be changed, then make a quick decision.
The time flow of the super body accelerated to the extreme.
Chen Ming felt that everything around him was slowing down, and his sense of fragmentation became more and more serious.
But it's still within the acceptable range.
The tail of the super body then sprayed out pink tail flames, which is the color that appears when the energy extracted from the void battery is used.
Chen Ming disappeared into the Gaia galaxy in a way he had never experienced before.
With unprecedented speed, he reached the first galaxy he planned in an instant.
After quickly scanning the circle and discovering the traces of Leviathan, Chen Ming continued to control the super body towards the next galaxy.
When Chen Ming came to the thirty-second galaxy.
In the end, he didn't find any trace of Leviathan. Instead, he found an extremely dark space station in the galaxy.
And the remains of a city were discovered on the surface of the planet beneath the space station.
Nothing else.
The super body quickly approached the new thing that Chen Ming finally discovered. There might be something he needed on the space station.
However, just as Chen Ming approached, the space station disappeared like dust.
