Chapter Eleven Technology Tree
With the completion of the repair of the "Level 4 Singularity", Li Wenyuan was really addicted to the sudden abundance of energy.
Those areas and facilities that had to be shut down due to energy shortages have been restarted, but even so there is still plenty of energy, changing the previous embarrassing situation.
[The general database has resumed full operation and is connecting to the core database...]
[...Warning, unable to connect to the core database, the general database has been set as the main database]
[Database module is online]
[Guardianship matrix completion completed: 25%]
[More guardianship rights have been opened]
A large amount of energy gushes out, and the first person to benefit is Li Wenyuan's "custodial matrix."
As the AI responsible for monitoring the normal operation of the entire planet, he had always felt that this "AI" was too poor. It had nothing to gain and had to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall to maintain positive energy benefits.
Now it seems that because the damage here was too serious, the guardianship matrix not only lost connection with many facilities, but also caused all the permissions related to these facilities to be disabled.
It can be said that since he time traveled, the "custody matrix" has been incomplete, and only some functions can still be used normally.
And as he solved some imminent problems, the "Guardianship Matrix" gradually began to regain its former functions.
"Are the new functions available?" Li Wenyuan's eyes moved slightly and he looked at the newly added "additional programs" in the virtual world.
"'Scientific research plan'? Let me set a goal for those scientific research areas and let them work automatically?"
He understood the functions of the newly added program, which seemed to be instructions related to scientific research zoning.
The so-called scientific research zoning is actually an integrated automated city that does not require manpower. It only needs an instruction from Li Wenyuan, and the city will automatically operate and start trying to solve the problems he set.
Scientific research divisions do not even need to provide scientific research materials, because they have a special "scientific research virtual world". All scientific research is conducted in the virtual world. The most likely result is obtained through countless simulated trials and errors, and the accuracy rate is infinitely close to 100
%.
"We don't know yet how effective its research is... I'll find something to give it a try." Li Wenyuan was thinking, and suddenly remembered a few new sentences he added when he invaded the system of the crashed spacecraft.
"'New technology has been added to the technology tree'? If I remember correctly, the technology tree should be in the database."
Following the idea, he opened the general database.
Suddenly, a large square frame connected by many lines appeared in the virtual world, extending from bottom to top, and the extended veins became more and more dense, looking like leafy "trees".
At the lowest level, the basic technologies that are the foundation of the "tree" have all been illuminated at this time, and a new "possible technology" has been expanded from them.
Li Wenyuan quickly looked at the aerospace technology he was most concerned about, and quickly showed a smile.
[Basic spacecraft structure]
[Technology level: 0]
[Introduction: Based on the analysis of the wreckage of the crashed spacecraft and the pirate spacecraft, we have initially mastered the construction method of this small primitive spacecraft]
[Possible technologies: engineering ship (99.9%); transport ship (99.9%); basic spaceship ai (99.9%)]
These "possible technologies" have a gray "unlocked" status on the technology tree. They are new technologies that are most likely to be developed based on existing technologies after scientific research zoning calculations.
Currently, only the top three with the highest probability of success will be displayed, but as soon as one research is completed, the remaining substitutes will fill in the "possible technology" vacancies.
The "possible technology" will be placed on the technology tree as a lit technology, and will extend into new "possible technologies".
"Doesn't that mean that as long as there is one basic technology, I can research all technologies through this technology?" Li Wenyuan looked at the technology tree with interest, and then quickly gave up this naive idea.
Because the higher up the technology tree is, the lower the probability of success in researching those "possible technologies". Because there is not enough basic data to support it, those high-level "possible technologies" are no different from just existing in fantasy.
Just like he saw a technology called "Sky Veil Battleship", which is a technology on the "Basic Spaceship Architecture" technology tree.
Its technology level has reached level 8, which is a very high position in the entire technology tree, but its success rate is directly 0. It is just a make-up technology placed at the top to maintain the integrity of the technology tree.
In fact, when the technology level reaches 3 or 4, the success rate of possible technology research drops significantly, almost only about 10%, and the proof program is not optimistic about the research possibility of this technology.
"Let's try the new function first, scientific research plan arrangement: engineering ship."
[The process has been scheduled]
[Scientific research division e1 is in operation]
[Research Completed: Engineering Ship]
[New technology has been added to the technology tree]
Li Wenyuan, who was about to do other things, was stunned for a moment, and then showed a surprised expression.
"So fast? Not even a second, right?"
Open the technology tree again. Above the "Basic Spaceship Structure", a new "Engineering Ship" technology has been lit.
If you click in, you can even see a large number of detailed drawings and reference data, as well as simulation clips from the "Scientific Research Virtual World".
Sighing at the high efficiency of scientific research zoning, Li Wenyuan simply researched all technologies with a success probability of 99.9%.
I saw that the technology tree, which was originally gray, started to light up rapidly from the bottom. The lighting speed did not slow down until the fourth level.
At this time, basically all technologies with technology levels between level 0 and level 1 have been researched.
After he chose a level 2 technology called "all-seeing invisibility", news came from the scientific research division that it would take 15 days.
"Huh, I can finally calm down for a while... But the harvest is really great. As expected, once the energy supply comes up, everything is available!" He sighed and turned his attention to another "facility to be repaired".
Although there are still many "level four singularities" waiting to be repaired on the planet, for Li Wenyuan, whose energy has overflowed, he needs something more important.
[Industrial facility: c2 area dimensional manufacturing machine]
[Lack of repair materials: about 360,000 tons of Kelis standard reinforced alloy; 1 Kezero]
This is the facility Li Wenyuan found among the many "facilities to be restored" that he believes is most suitable for restoration now.
According to the description, this "dimensional manufacturing machine" can consume a small amount of energy and directly extract resources from other parallel universes.
Li Wenyuan didn't know what the principle of this thing was, but it was very important to him now.
In the absence of a stable means of resource production, this "making something out of nothing" machine is just a piece of cake.
"After the industrial division started operating, I have been able to synthesize Kelis strengthened alloy, but the basic resources needed to synthesize the alloy can only be found temporarily from the planet..."
Li Wenyuan felt that there was a long way to go when he thought that he had to control a large number of synthetic humans to rummage around the planet.
