Chapter 410 The New Industrial Revolution
“Teacher Na Ning, this discovery...should we share it with others?”
“The discovery of this kind of substance must be reported to the superiors. , After all, this space operation is not only carried out by Xingchen Technology, but jointly carried out by Xingchen Technology and Xia Guo Space Administration. As for the results of the analysis, especially the more professional ones, we can just go back and do it ourselves, and then we can do it ourselves. Let’s study the publication again.”
Hearing Ning Chen’s answer, Xu Zhou immediately understood what Ning Chen was thinking and felt very much in agreement with Ning Chen’s choice.
Normal lunar exploration discoveries must be reported without concealment, but some are research results based on these discoveries. Naturally, there is no need to report them, at least they certainly do not need to be reported immediately. .
What's more, Xingchen Technology occupies half of the authority of this lunar exploration mission, so many things can still be decided by oneself.
After confirming this arrangement, Ning Chen first truthfully reported what he and Song Xiyun had just discovered, and handed over the collected samples to the staff responsible for collecting items. , let them keep it uniformly first, and then distribute and research the samples after returning.
Everyone seemed very excited after learning that Ning Chen had made so many discoveries in such a short period of time.
"Academician Ning, it turns out that you have made some major discoveries when you went there to explore just now. So many new substances were discovered on the first day, which is very important for our lunar exploration mission. , It’s really a good start!”
At this time, no one knew how profound Ning Chen’s discoveries were, but just the discovery of new materials was enough. It was enough to shock the whole world.
In the following time, Ning Chen did not rush to explore nearby, but first completed the remaining work of the temporary base construction with everyone.
Although Ning Chen’s thoughts are focused on the exploration of the moon, and he even wants to go around the moon this time, after all, this is an unrealistic thing, and Ning Chen can only do it within a limited time. Within the time limit, explore the moon as much as possible.
With everyone's hard work, the construction of the temporary base has finally been completed, and everyone can finally temporarily enter the base to rest and recuperate.
This temporary base is relatively simple. Due to time constraints, we will be able to slowly build a long-term scientific research base in the future, but compared to the very limited space in the spacecraft, this place is considered The condition is very good.
“We should feel very lucky to have such a temporary hotel on the moon. Even if someone pays 100 million, it is impossible to stay in such a hotel on the moon.”
"Haha, the value of this 'hotel' cannot be measured by money. Being able to live here for a while is enough for us to brag about for a lifetime."
The atmosphere in the temporary base seems very warm and harmonious. On the first night on the moon, everyone cherished this hard-won important step.
When resting at night, Ning Chen couldn't sleep. This was not because Ning Chen was so excited about coming to the moon. It was just that there were too many things in Ning Chen's mind, which made Ning Chen confused. There was no sleepiness.
Fortunately, Ning Chen now has extremely abundant energy and does not need too much sleep every day. Even if he does not sleep for several days, he can still work and live normally. This makes Ning Chen I wasn’t very worried about this and continued to think about various issues.
One of the questions Ning Chen was thinking about was about system tasks.
"Hey... I don't know if such a base can be regarded as a scientific research base among the system requirements. But according to my guess, the possibility of this is not high."
In fact, Ning Chenyi The scientific research base that was originally planned to be built was not like this. Even if it was just a temporary base, it would be more advanced than the current one. However, because of the sudden occurrence of the "Quantum Ghost" incident, Ning Chen had to temporarily change his previous plan. This made Ning Chen act a little hastily.
At least so far, there has been no change in the task completion progress on the system task interface, which indicates that Ning Chen's probability of completing the task this time is constantly declining.
However, Ning Chen can still accept this fact. Anyway, his exploration of the moon is not limited to a temporary period. If it cannot be completed this time, at worst, he will conduct a larger-scale exploration next time. Well, after all, every goal is approached step by step.
Each temporary base here, in addition to several individual bedrooms, also has a public area. This area can be used for everyone to discuss some plans together. Ning Chen temporarily called this room " living room".
Everyone was resting now, and Ning Chen didn't want to go out alone, so he came to the living room and walked around, trying to relieve some of the messy emotions in his heart.
At this moment, the door of another room also opened.
This room is Song Xiyun's room. Seeing Ning Chen pacing here, Song Xiyun said in surprise:
"Why, Ning Chen... you can't sleep either?"
"Well, I was thinking about something in my mind, so I wanted to go for a walk. Song Xiyun, what about you?"
"I'm almost the same. I had insomnia on the first day after arriving on the moon. If it weren't for rest time, I would have been searching nearby. It's such a waste of time to sleep."
< br>Recalling the excavation of lunar soil samples with Ning Chen just now, Song Xiyun still feels very excited, feeling that there must be more things worthy of their discovery nearby.
Ning Chen thought that neither he nor Song Xiyun could sleep anyway, so he simply started chatting with Song Xiyun in the living room.
Both Ning Chen and Song Xiyun are very energetic people. Even if they lose a few hours of sleep every day, it is not a big deal. Ning Chen is not worried that this will affect Song Xiyun's condition.
"Ning Chen, what do you think our future research on the moon will be like?"
Song Xiyun had asked Ning Chen similar questions before. At that time, Ning Chen did not give Song Xiyun a detailed answer because he was still on the Blue Star. But now, Ning Chen has more ideas.
“There are still many directions. For example, we can study lunar materials to help us further promote the development of various disciplines. We can also use the moon as a second base for the construction of various Scientific research stations, mining bases, research centers, etc. We can even transport some people on Blue Star to the moon and make the moon our second home..."
Ning Chen has many ideas about the moon. , many of these ideas did not sound so realistic, at least they could not be completed in a short time, but Song Xiyun listened with interest, and did not feel that these ideas mentioned by Ning Chen were unrealistic.
“If we can build our second home on the moon in the future, I will definitely be one of the first people to live on the moon. This is really cool. You can do it at home. Looking directly at our blue star..."
When talking about this, Song Xiyun's eyes shone with light, and it could be seen that Song Xiyun really longed for such a scene. "Okay, we can continue to be neighbors then." Ning Chen said with a smile.
Ning Chen would not mind the lonely environment on the moon. As a person who likes quiet, Ning Chen is looking forward to working in such an environment.
“Hey, Ning Chen, you say...are there aliens in this universe?”
“Aliens dare not say, aliens I think there must be living things, and alien civilizations are also very likely to exist. However, these alien civilizations may not know the existence of Blue Star civilization, otherwise they would not have left any traces on Blue Star for so many years. "
According to the "Dark Forest" law, if such an alien civilization really existed, I am afraid that the Blue Star civilization would have been wiped out long ago, and there would at least be some attacks on the Blue Star civilization. But until now, the blue civilization still has no signs of being attacked.
"Ning Chen, is it possible that the alien civilization is powerful enough to control the entire Blue Star civilization, and they are not worried that the Blue Star civilization will pose any threat to them. Well... if we use an analogy, it is like humans raised in Just like a fish in a fish tank.”
Ning Chen was stunned when he heard Song Xiyun’s metaphor, because there was nothing wrong with Song Xiyun’s hypothesis in theory.
For a moment, Ning Chen only felt that there was a looming and terrifying existence in the sky, looking down at him.
When thinking of this unexplainable system in his mind, Ning Chen's doubts became even more intense.
But when Ning Chen gradually calmed down, he also knew that Song Xiyun's hypothesis was not that easy. There were too many very coincidental premises in it.
"Song Xiyun, if such an alien civilization really exists, for us, there will be no difference between them and the Creator. I still believe that there is no such civilization in the universe. Otherwise, everything we have done will , will have no meaning.”
“But Ning Chen, to those other creatures on the Blue Star, we are really like ‘creators’, with our current abilities, we can definitely pass. Cloning technology can create individuals that are identical to any living thing. Maybe it won’t be long before we can resurrect extinct creatures.”
Recalling Song Xiyun’s words, Ning Chen realized that now. The Blue Star humans have indeed reached a high level of civilization.
Even if this level of civilization may not be worth mentioning in the entire universe, for lower creatures, human beings can indeed be called creator-like existences.
However, Ning Chen still had a hard time imagining that human beings are just "fish" raised by higher organisms. As for the civilization that Song Xiyun imagined existed, Ning Chen really couldn't imagine what it would be like. exist.
However, after chatting with Song Xiyun for a while, Ning Chen's mood calmed down a lot and he was no longer as upset as before.
"Song Xiyun, let's all go back and rest. We have to continue the mission tomorrow, so we can't stay up all night."
"Well, it just so happens that I'm a little sleepy too. , let’s go back and have a rest, good night.”
“Good night.”
…………
In the next few days, members of the lunar exploration team explored the nearby ground as planned.
During this period, everyone made many new discoveries. These discoveries enabled the team to exceed the original goal ahead of schedule, and no longer worried that this mission would not yield enough results.
But at the same time, Ning Chen did not find anything particularly shocking, such as finding any living creatures on the moon, or traces of civilization and biological existence, etc.
Just when Ning Chen was preparing to explore further nearby places, Ning Chen unexpectedly received a task completion message from the system.
[It is detected that the host has completed the task: Complete the construction of at least one alien planet base]
[Get mission reward: Subject level improvement experience card*3]
[The mission system has been updated...]
[Mission: Realize the new generation industrial revolution of Blue Star Civilization]
< br>[Task introduction: After these years of development, the technological level of blue civilization has made great progress, but there is still a certain gap between the completion of the new generation of industrial revolution. Please host continue to help blue civilization achieve progress in industrial strength and completely leap into the new industrial era]
[Task reward: air and space fighter technology]
[Note: In this task, the system will display the host's task completion progress in real time in the form of a percentage, so that the host can understand the task completion progress in real time]
"The task... unexpectedly Already completed? But why didn’t the system give a message that the task was completed a few days ago when we just completed the construction of the temporary base? "
Ning Chen still remembers this fact very clearly? , because Ning Chen went to the system task interface to check the progress of the task in order to confirm the progress of the task, and repeatedly confirmed that the task was not completed.
In these years of experience in contact with the system, Ning Chen knew that the system would not have any task delay bugs, so there must be some other reasons behind the sudden completion of the task.
After thinking for a while, Ning Chen got some possible speculations.
"Perhaps... the system's evaluation of scientific research bases does not entirely look at the architecture of the base, but rather combines factors such as the scale of the scientific research base, the number of people, the degree of exploration of alien planets, etc. Even though our current temporary base is still It seems very crude, but at least through these days of continuous exploration, our understanding of the moon has finally improved to a new level.”
