Chapter 767 Difficulties of Micro-Integrated Arrays, Collecting Data
Based on the experience on earth, it is speculated that once the magic computer is born, it is likely to develop at an unimaginable speed. The complexity of the magic circle will be directly related to the strength of the computing power.
In fact, the energy consumption of the magic circle has nothing to do with the volume, and is only related to the number of single string elements involved in the magic network string.
This is just like a ring-shaped magic item. It is essentially the same as a human-sized magic item. They all use the same magic circle, and the combination, changes, and energy flow of the magic network strings involved are roughly the same.
The higher the purity of mithril, the smaller the components of the array can be made, and the greater the energy flowing within the unit volume.
Even if micro-integrated arrays appear in the future, the energy consumption of single elements will remain unchanged. In other words, the more integrated, the more single-string elements the magic computer will have per unit volume, and the more energy it will consume.
If the problem of energy leakage is also taken into account, such a magic computer is probably not a bomb that may explode at any time.
And it is conceivable that this highly integrated magic circle must be connected to a large number of magic network strings. Once it explodes, it may be even more terrifying than the explosion of the mysterious lock.
At the same time, it is impossible for such a highly integrated magic circle to be manually connected to the magic network. Either a machine will automatically connect to the magic network, or it will not use the magic network to supply energy.
But no matter which one it is, it is an extremely high-end new technology.
The former means mass production of real magic items, or even fully automatic production of magic items, while the latter means an energy source with extremely large output power, perhaps the [Myser Energy Core].
Based on various considerations, Xia Duo initially gave up on working on a magic computer. A simple one might be possible, but it would not have much practical significance; and a complex one would have too high a threshold.
What the two have in common is that they are very time-consuming, especially the latter. It is hard for Xia Duo to imagine how much time it would take to build a magic computer with computing power comparable to that of a mobile phone before time travel.
Probably the best time for research is when there are more arcane masters trained by the Tower of Isochron Academy!
But now, after awakening his bloodline, Xia Duo has gained the ability to trace memories by changing his soul form. To a certain extent, he can be regarded as having a portable computer.
It's just that this portable computer focuses more on logical operations, such as induction, deduction, abstraction, etc., but for the calculation of specific numbers, it is not much different from before.
The only difference is probably that he can now list specific calculation formulas and calculation processes in his mind instead of writing them on paper, which can be regarded as a kind of mental arithmetic ability.
But compared with a real computer, it is far behind.
In fact, Chateau was not able to enjoy the real computing convenience from this so-called portable computer.
After all, this is not a computer per se? It might be more appropriate to say "memory".
This memory matched his original mind, which made him feel like he had a portable computer, but didn't it mean it didn't? The difference was still very obvious.
Xia Duo naturally wants to have a real portable computer? Or a smart brain, a system or something. Just shout "deduction" or "calculate" to it? Or even "add points", and everything will be completed automatically? That feeling
It’s simply not that exciting!
Of course he knew very well in his heart? Daydreams are just daydreams. After all, the future must be created by oneself. It is unrealistic to expect some supernatural power to automatically complete it.
…
Tower of Time plane exploration layer.
In the operation room, Xia Duo looked at the detection data projection that was still scrolling in front of the table with some frustration, and the pen in his hand also stopped.
Looking at the thick stack of transcripts on the table, he realized that he had done something stupid. There were only three arcanists in the Tower of Time now, and it was impossible for all three of them to come to conduct plane research.
The ones who really want to do these things should be plane scholars, but now in the Tower of Time? Only Shado and Aibo can barely be considered plane scholars.
What can two people do? Just sorting out these detection data will take a lot of time.
There is no need for Xia Duo to waste time on this. When there are more plane scholars in the future, some of these jobs will be done by people, but now? He just needs to make it easier for himself.
So moving most of the organizing process into your own mind? It will definitely save a lot of time. Even if there are more plane scholars behind, you can quickly keep up with his research progress.
With this thought in mind, Xia Duo simply put away the pen and paper on the table, leaned back on his seat, found a more comfortable angle, and then ordered Taling to display all the detection data.
For a moment, the operation room was almost flooded with dense light spots. Sha Duo quickly stopped and asked Ta Ling to re-display the data in the previous rolling projection method.
Of course, now he records with his eyes, and the speed of projection transformation has increased countless times compared to before, and it is almost flashing.
But even so, it continued to flash for nearly an hour. Xia Duo only knew that there was a lot of detection data, but he did not expect that there would be such a large amount.
There are more than 10,000 data, most of which were passively detected by the plane exploration array through the fixed sensing field that exists in the etheric layer.
The existence of the etheric layer, which can give birth to planes, has a special "flow" phenomenon on the space-time level. Even in a fixed perception field, a large number of different signals can be collected.
You must know that the Tower of Time's plane detection array has been put into use for just over a year and has collected more than 10,000 different signals. This shows that the "position" of the sensing field has changed at least 10,000 times.
As for active search, since the action of projecting the sensing field into the etheric layer itself is a very energy-consuming behavior, even if Xia Duo tried a lot some time ago, the absolute number was actually not high.
Compared with the passive detection data of more than 10,000 times, it is almost negligible.
And the most important thing is that whether it is the [yellow sand demiplane] or the [blue crystal subplane], the suspected signal is passively detected and then found through a secondary search.
It has nothing to do with Sha Duo.
Just being a new level scholar like Xia Duo is not enough to make active search more efficient than passive detection.
…
Nearly an hour of data collection made Xia Duo's eyes a little sore, but he wouldn't need it anymore. Xia Duo simply returned to his residence, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and recalled.
At this time, in his mind, or to be more precise, in his consciousness, as if time was flowing backwards, the data he had just seen began to reappear one by one, until a sea of light appeared, encompassing all the data.
Among them, each detection data is a community composed of more than 1,200 simplified arcane geometric symbols, with clear boundaries between them.
