Volume 2 Test Site No. 1 Chapter 47: Compressing Space and Preparing to Set Sail
I walked through the Nanoengineering Laboratory and the Bioengineering Laboratory, but didn't find a single intelligent quantum computer.
The computers responsible for the daily maintenance of the laboratory are just ordinary quantum computers.
Therefore, Lin Xu did not go to the last laboratory in person, but only authorized Qiming to take over the control authority of the third laboratory and the authority of the database.
Without the obstruction of intelligent quantum computers, Qiming would be able to take over the third laboratory as long as Lin Xu authorized it.
In this way, the Qingfeng stood by in the clouds in the sky, and a part of the autonomous mechanical aggregate was sent to the third laboratory. Qiming then took over all the authority of the laboratory .
Lin Xu stayed in the elves temporarily. He wanted to visit the Tree King City, the largest city of the elves built under the shade of a huge tree.
The so-called king of trees is a giant tree with a trunk that is thousands of meters in diameter and thousands of meters high.
The Tree King City is built under the cover of this huge tree. Trees of different styles make up the buildings in the Tree King City.
Some important facilities were simply built on the branches of the king tree.
According to the information Lin Xu obtained from the bioengineering laboratory, this giant tree was also part of an ecological transformation experiment ten thousand years ago.
Humans want to try to use DNA modulation to develop a special tree species to be used for transforming barren planets in the future.
The one in the Elf Forest is the earliest finished product.
Lin Xu took Miss Qiu for a walk in the Tree King City, admiring the special architectural aesthetics developed by the elves. It had to be said that it was really beautiful.
Because there are also some people of other races living in Tree King City, the two of them are not very conspicuous.
Lin Xu has lived in Tree King City for two days.
During these two days, he lived in the elven palace specially arranged for him by Eve, who had regained her status as queen, that is, he lived on top of the tall giant tree.
The beautiful architectural style made Lin Xu very happy living here.
In the past two days, Lin Xu also read a lot of historical records of the elves, especially the information about human relatives.
He also specifically asked Qiming to copy all historical records into the database.
Two days passed in a flash, and the database of the third laboratory had been obtained. Lin Xu felt that it was almost done.
"Master, Earth has already upgraded the genetic modification equipment based on the genetic technology upgrade data obtained. Should we return to Earth for further genetic modification?" Qiming's report came.
"It seems that we have stayed on this planet long enough. It's time to go back." Lin Xu sighed , and finally looked at the vibrant Tree King City, and ordered, "Let's go back to Earth. It's almost time to set sail."
The Qingfeng slowly descended. Its length was equal to the diameter of the Tree King. It stopped on one side of the Tree King, covering half of the sky of the Tree King City.
The residents living in the Tree King City had already known from the announcement of the Great Ruler that the legendary Queen Eve had returned, found the founding tribe, and healed the Elf Tree.
And this huge starry sky ship is the vehicle of the founding clan.
So everyone gathered in the streets and alleys, looking at the huge creature in the sky that was not much smaller than the tree king, their eyes full of curiosity, awe, and reverence.
Some elves bowed and saluted the Breeze.
As if it was contagious, more and more elves saluted the Breeze.
Everyone was grateful from the bottom of their hearts that the founding clan had saved the Elf Tree.
On a branch of the king tree that was flattened like a square, Lin Xu was saying his final goodbye to Eve.
"Come to think of it, I'm quite curious. Why did you choose to fly in that direction when you were in the space shuttle three thousand years ago?" Lin Xu asked.
"We observed continuous flashes of light coming from that direction." Eve's reason was extremely simple.
But after following Lin Xu for some time, she already knew that the continuous flashes three thousand years ago were actually the light emitted by the Norse civilization chasing the rebels and fighting.
As if grasping at the last straw, the elves blindly headed in that direction, searching for the traces of the founding clan.
Although the final result looks good, I have to say that luck plays a big role in it.
"Finally, on behalf of the elves, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you, Your Highness Lin Xu. Your legend will surely be passed down forever among the elves." Eve bowed and saluted, and the elves following behind her also saluted.
"You know, I don't care about these." Lin Xu waved his hand.
"I know you don't care, but that doesn't mean we can pretend nothing happened." Eve responded with a smile.
"You guys are welcome to do whatever you want. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
Lin Xu turned and walked towards the Qingfeng without looking back.
Miss Qiu first nodded to Eve, moved the corners of her mouth slightly, said goodbye silently, then turned around and followed Lin Xu.
Then, the Qingfeng took off and headed towards the sky.
Eve watched the Breeze getting smaller and smaller in the sky for a long time without saying a word.
I believe that the experience she had on Earth will become her most profound memory and will last forever.
On the Qingfeng, Lin Xu looked at the Tree King City below which was getting smaller and smaller, and asked questions about the third laboratory, the Space Engineering Laboratory.
"Qiming, you said before that the Space Engineering Laboratory was studying the possibility of miniaturizing the curvature engine. Although it was not successful, it did produce some unexpected results in terms of space?"
"Yes, master. The curvature engine bends space and uses the movement of space to drag the target forward in order to achieve superluminal speed. It requires huge amounts of energy during operation and is very difficult to miniaturize. Therefore, humans' research on miniaturizing curvature engines has not been successful for the time being. However, in the process of research, they accidentally discovered a way to compress space and create compressed space." Qiming introduced.
"Compressed space?" Lin Xu didn't understand how this was related to the curvature engine.
"If after bending the space, the space always maintains the curved state and the curved state is continuously superimposed, the space can be compressed. And because we do not pursue the curved space to drag large mass objects to fly at superluminal speed, the curvature can be maintained for a long time and can even be miniaturized relatively easily," Qiming introduced.
"What's the use of compressing space?" Lin Xu continued to ask.
"The Qingfeng can be compressed to only one-tenth of its size. Of course, it will only look smaller overall, but the internal space will remain the same," Qiming explained.
"Is this useful? Can the curvature engine be compressed and installed on the Qingfeng?" Lin Xu thought of a use.
"The curvature engine can perform compression when it is not running. However, when the curvature engine is running, it will produce space curvature itself, which will conflict with the space curvature caused by space compression. It will instantly return to its original size and may even cause a space explosion." Qiming introduced again.
"I understand. It seems to be of no use for the time being." Lin Xu nodded and said.
