Azshara looked at the angry wise men and ministers in the palace.
The previous commotion gave her an inexplicable sense of dislocation, which caused her to fall into a brief state of trance.
These dignitaries who lived on their home planet and lived in temples were actually more determined to fight than she, a soldier who had been on the front line. From this point of view, Commander Yang Wenzhi told himself that in the human world,
In the understanding that one's own civilization is a group of cowards, it is a wrong judgment.
Her Majesty the Queen's voice sounded slowly.
"Azshara, what is the extent of human power?"
"Your Majesty." Azshara looked away, the voice of the human commander still playing in her mind. After a moment of silence, she whispered: "The humans told me that there was something I couldn't understand, but when I heard it, I
It’s also a bit incomprehensible.”
The queen looked at her: "What's the matter?"
"The human commanders told me they couldn't understand why we were so afraid of the Executors."
That’s the answer.”
"Yes, I know that the Ayi home planet was once destroyed by the Executor, and the Executor's power is extremely powerful." Azshara looked at the prince, and after a few seconds of silence, she asked: "Then why are we unwilling to admit that we can
Are the humans who defeated the early legions of the Executors equally powerful?"
Azshara continued to look at everyone: "Is it because humans haven't attacked us yet?"
As soon as these words came out, the palace fell into silence for a moment, but it became excited again the next second.
"Azshara, are you timid?"
"Azshara, can humans compare with the civilization that ruled the universe thousands of years ago?"
"Are you confused by humans?"
Azshara was unmoved and looked at the queen: "Your Majesty, the human battleship is fully remote controlled, supplemented by powerful and flexible robots that can replace real people - the one they parked outside the star gate.
A huge fleet, only the flagship has humans on board, and the rest of the warships are all unmanned warships."
"They didn't sacrifice a single human being in the battle with the Executors!"
Above the royal palace, there was no sound at all!
Queen Galadriel raised her eyebrows instantly!
"Has their technology reached this level?"
"Yes." Azshara breathed out softly and turned to look at everyone.
"I'm just stating the facts. I'm not afraid of humans or sacrifices - don't forget, we lost five thousand brave warriors in the war with the Tara barbarians!"
At this time, Isilita returned to the palace with her maid holding a large stack of thick documents. The queen slowly stood up, pulled out a document and walked down from the throne.
"Aisshara, Orlando, come to the office."
"Others, go back and read the documents."
…
Half an hour later, the king's office.
The Queen raised her head from the document, with deep tiredness in her brows. She looked at Orlando, who had also finished reading the document, with a solemn expression on his face.
This document sent by humans confirmed Orlando's suspicion.
"Orlando, you are right. It seems that humans really hope to turn the Karatu galaxy into a resource base to support their war with the Executors."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Orlando nodded and said solemnly: "Humanity won the victory in the early battles. They also knew that they were fighting a force that had existed for tens of thousands of years, so they arranged the battle line far away from them.
The further away the home star is, the more time and opportunity there is to make arrangements - this is why they came. Isn't that right? Azshara."
Azshara hummed.
She is a military commander. Although she is fighting a civil war within the department, the military principles are the same inside and outside the department.
"If according to the description in the document, if we decide to join the human camp, we will be able to obtain the same technology and creations of humans, which also means that we will no longer have soldiers to sacrifice in future wars, and the Tara barbarians will also be solved.
"
"What if we don't join?" The queen looked at her.
Azshara was silent for a while and then said softly: "Your Majesty, I don't have any confidence in facing humans and Tara barbarians at the same time. And we have all ignored one thing..."
"What was overlooked?"
"This human fleet was built within one year." Azshara stared at the queen and said word by word: "Your Majesty, they are not arrogant, but confident!"
"Your Majesty, if I could have a fleet that could be replenished anytime and anywhere without sacrificing soldiers, and could even fight more and more... Your Majesty, I would dare to face any enemy head-on!"
There was a long silence in the office.
Humans only gave them two choices.
Either join humans and become enemies of the Executors, or become enemies of humans now.
The queen closed her eyes, and when she opened them, there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.
In silence, she looked at the two relatively sober subjects: "Do you know why we can coexist with the executors and witness the changes in civilization over the past ten thousand years?"
Azshara and Orlando looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.
"Because tens of thousands of years ago, our ancestors fought a decades-long war with the elite legions of the Holy Kingdom, the predecessors of the Enforcers. Although they eventually invaded the home system and were destroyed by Star Destroyers, the Ila home planet was still
We have also received the recognition and commitment of the Holy Empire. As long as we no longer touch forbidden technologies, we can survive forever."
Azshara's body was shaken, and her eyes suddenly lit up!
At this moment, her first reaction was to tell the human commander that their ancestors had resisted more resolutely and tragically than humans!
"Azshara, tell the human messengers that I want to see them."
Azshara took a deep breath and nodded heavily.
At this moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and a girl wearing velvet pajamas stuck her head out the door: "Mother, aren't you going to rest?"
A smile immediately appeared on the corner of the queen's lips: "I'm going to rest soon. My little princess Egwene, go to bed quickly."
The girl named Egwene stuck out her tongue, and then gently closed the door.
"Also, I want to speak to the leader of mankind."
…
Provincial capital, academician villa area.
Ye Ming woke up to the sound of cicadas chirping.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Miss Ye Xiaoxi sitting next to him, her mouth was dripping with laughter, holding a book "Introduction to Principles of High-Dimensional Geometry" compiled by him in her hands and "reading" it carefully.
Yu Mo was in front taking videos with his mobile phone.
"Ah ha, Niuniu can read now? Come to daddy and see what you have learned." Ye Ming took his daughter into his arms and turned over to sit up. Unexpectedly, the little girl who was just over one year old suddenly became unhappy and started
Keep pushing him.
Ye Ming gave a thumbs up: "Awesome! You are the first to dare to refuse Academician Ye's guidance."
Qi Yumo laughed loudly: "I am the first one who dares to pee on your head."
"Hahahaha! Stop talking—have you changed your diaper?"
"It has been changed a long time ago. What were you doing last night? You were still talking to Eta in the middle of the night."
"Oh, when it comes to cracking the encrypted communications of the Kron people, their algorithm is a bit advanced and it takes a lot of trouble."
"Has it been cracked yet?"
"What do you think? Your husband personally took action, of course! It's just that the electromagnetic waves dissipated too fast, and there was no useful information." Ye Ming turned over and got up, looked at the time and found that it was already 9:10 in the morning, and immediately walked to the bathroom: "
Damn it, you should have called me earlier. I have to meet with Lao Chen and Brother Chaoxiong at nine-thirty."
Qi Yumo immediately asked: "Is it talking about the universal assembly line?"
"Yes - how much do you know?"
"Well, I don't know what happened to them. Chairman Chen is personally responsible. How can I help?" Qi Yumo smiled and took their daughter away: "Then do you want to have breakfast?"
"If you don't want to eat, I'll just go to the office and find something to eat."
After briefly washing up, Ye Ming took Ita and walked quickly to the brain-computer center.
The two of them discussed it until midnight last night - a real face-to-face discussion - in addition to deciphering the radio electromagnetic information of the Kron people, they also mainly discussed the antimatter collection device.
The project he handed over to his two deputy directors, the principle of curvature of rice grains, is essentially a miracle that can be achieved with great force, as long as the energy is sufficient, so after the breakthrough of two-dimensional energy, its realization will be a matter of course.
But the antimatter collection device is a bit troublesome. This thing cannot be achieved with great strength. It involves the integration of a series of technologies. Specifically in terms of engineering, it requires a lot of compromises.
Under Sheng Fei's constant compromises, the antimatter collection device now designed has become a theoretical disposable product... Its high cost and low efficiency are completely unacceptable to him. After all, antimatter is used as a conventional energy source.
Instead of building a few and doing scientific research - the cost of firing one shot is hundreds of billions, who can bear it?
Fortunately, mankind has now reached a level of proficiency in the use of fusion energy, and there is no rush to use antimatter - as far as war weapons are concerned, vigorously promoting the upgrading and production of rice grains is the way to go.
As soon as he walked into the office, he saw Su Zi pouring water for Professor Chen and Yang Chaoxiong.
"Teacher Chen, Senior Brother Chaoxiong." Ye Ming quickly smiled and apologized: "Sorry, sorry, I stayed up late last night and got up late."
"It's okay, we just arrived." Professor Chen chuckled, shook hands with Ye Ming and sat down again.
As Su Zi closed the door and exited, the three people laughed at the same time.
Although Ye Ming did not join Professor Chen's group at the beginning, Tang and Chen originally wore the same pair of pants. In addition, they are both the founders of Jizhi Technology, so the relationship goes without saying.
"Come to think of it, we haven't seen each other for almost a year, right?" Professor Chen picked up the water glass and took a sip: "You have basically been on the moon this year."
"I only came back yesterday this time." Ye Ming shook his head and sighed: "But now that the first phase of the battle is over, I can relax a little."
Yang Chaoxiong smiled and nodded: "Well, now that the fight is over, you should pay more attention to people's livelihood issues."
Ye Ming was stunned and laughed: "Brother Chaoxiong, what you said is right... I'm not a leader, what people's livelihood issues do I care about?"
"Ahem...I'm talking about the universal assembly line. You need to put a lot of effort into it!" Yang Chaoxiong's eyes were burning.
The universal assembly line was proposed by Professor Chen two years ago. Ye Ming was there at the time, and Ye Ming also supported its implementation.
Therefore, in the past two years, Professor Chen and Yang Chaoxiong took personal responsibility and began to build this universal assembly line, also called the universal workshop.
From the name, it sounds very similar to Universal Factory, but in fact they are quite different.
The Universal Factory has now entered its fourth phase. It is essentially a self-replicating industrial base, with the ultimate purpose of resource collection.
But the universal assembly line is different.
It is for end products, and is similar to an efficient super-large "3D printer"!
In the imagination, any product design completed by humans with the help of Aita can be quickly completed through this universal assembly line, thus greatly speeding up the process from product design to production, and at the same time, it can also greatly liberate human imagination.
It is human nature that it is easier to know than to do. There are too many excellent ideas that eventually disappear because they only remain in concepts.
This is also the reason why Ye Ming supported it at that time.
But... these two people don’t lack money, resources, and status. What else do they need to support?
Faced with Ye Ming's doubts, Professor Chen coughed lightly: "You may not know yet, but the current Jizhi Technology is basically similar to military control."
Ye Ming also coughed slightly.
To this day, he is still the chief scientist of JiZhi Technology. If you say he doesn't know... you are definitely wrong.
But as one of the leaders of the human resistance executors, he will of course also look at the problem from a higher perspective.
As the most advanced scientific and technological unit in mankind, JiZhi Technology has long been separated from the scope of the previous company and is deeply tied to the community and even the entire human industry.
To put it bluntly, everything currently implemented by JiZhi Technology is the will of the community.
Therefore, now that everything is prioritizing war... Professor Chen, the chairman, cannot help himself when faced with large investments.
Ye Ming tentatively asked: "Is the design completed now?"
"The design is complete. But... the higher-ups are not very supportive right now."
After thinking about it, Ye Ming immediately asked: "How much does it cost to make the first one?"
"More than 300 billion."
Ye Ming took a breath and instantly reached his heels.
Good guy!
More than three hundred billion!
This is enough to build six Baiqi ships!
And a Baiqi ship can scare the pee out of the people of Kerong...
The country is going to have to do this thing now!
"Does it really cost so much? Can it be improved? The function you designed is the most complicated thing it can create."
"Well, the biggest thing you can do is build a car from scratch."
Ye Ming looked suspicious: "Can you build a car? Doesn't it include chips?"
"Not included, but everything else is fine. It only requires raw materials. In the design, it can complete almost all light industrial processing categories now!" Yang Chaoxiong took a deep breath and stared at Ye Ming closely: "Although it is not very capable yet.
It is comparable to the current industrial system, but Ye Ming... this is indeed the foundation of the future universe factory!"
After a moment of silence, Ye Ming nodded slowly.
Indeed, if human civilization wants to expand to the entire universe, it must build a new industrial system.
The universal factory realizes the collection and refining of energy, and the universal assembly line workshop realizes products.
This is indeed the way of the future.
At this moment, Su Zi knocked on the door. After a moment, she looked solemn.
"Mr. Ye, we received an emergency notification from the Foreign Affairs Office."
