The Age of Global Gods: The Rise of Techno-Cults

"Then we will move on to the second topic of this meeting - the technological development of the Divine Realm."

At first, all the technologies in Rollo's Divine Realm came from the Technology Core, which was developed from the Blue Star technology before Rollo's rebirth. At the beginning, all cars used oil resources, and all aspects of technology were learned from Blue Star technology, so the Divine Realm started very high.

This made the development of various technologies very rapid, but later, because scholars in the Science and Technology Laboratory developed psychic technology, a more efficient and higher-level energy system, new technologies that were easy to charge and carry began to replace previous scientific and technological achievements.

The Psychic Walker heavy tanks, psychic armored vehicles, psychic transport vehicles, and even the later psychic trains and psychic planes developed by the laboratory are the best representatives of this series of technologies.

"Then the question is, should we completely abandon the previous technology development policy based on fossil energy? In other words, use existing psychic technology to replace previous low-level technology."

Saint Wendy, director of the Science and Technology Development and Research Laboratory, disagreed with this.

"Although psychic technology is developed by us, I still have to give a detailed description of its advantages and disadvantages in a fair manner."

"Although psychic technology has various advantages such as high energy level, fast charging, and easy to carry. But this is still not enough to make it completely replace the previous technological operation mode. Take the blank energy storage stone as an example. This thing has no output in the God's Domain. It depends entirely on my God to bring it from the outside world. That is to say, its source is very unstable. Once an emergency occurs, we will not be able to replenish enough blank energy storage stones."

"Although everyone says that energy storage stones can be recharged repeatedly and recharged quickly, but based on the results of our scientific and technological laboratory investigation. The electrical appliances used by all races in the God's Domain or equipment that requires energy are growing exponentially, and its growth rate is much greater than the growth rate of blank energy storage stones. Although we can recharge energy storage stones repeatedly, if each device occupies an energy storage stone."

"Then the situation is that we have enough capacity to charge, but there is no energy storage stone for us to use. This is the key to the problem. We don't have the storage of raw materials. The equipment is completely dependent on external transmission, which is an unhealthy way of technological development, so I still do not recommend using psychic technology to completely replace the previous technological system. "

Rollo began to lead the applause: "I am very pleased with what Wendy said. She did not force the development of psychic technology just because she is the developer of psychic technology, but clearly recognized this problem in the God's Domain."

"And what I want to tell you is that although the technological systems are different, their connotations are the same. Before we have the absolute initiative, we must not relax our vigilance and hand our lifeline to others. Although there are many blank energy storage stones in the world of gods, and they are even very cheap, I still agree with Wendy's point of view. If special circumstances occur, this is enough to kill us. So I hope that in the future, everyone can learn more from Wendy in the way they think about problems. Everything has two sides. We can't just see the good side and ignore the bad side. "

"For this question. Do you have any other ideas?"

At this time, the dwarf Lakto, the current vice president of the Institute of Science and Technology Development and Research, raised his hand high. Luo Luo saw that he had something to say, and immediately called him up: "Do you have any suggestions or opinions?"

"Reporting to my God. I have participated in the research of power transmission equipment in the first generation of technology system, mainly the development of power transmission wires. This gave me some inspiration. Because I want to study the metallurgical process of wire materials, I have learned about the operation mode of power plants in detail. I wonder if we can apply this model to psychic technology."

"Oh." Luo Luo became interested: "Go on!"

Lakto was also excited: "The energy storage stones can be concentrated and placed in a fixed location. The charging factory is placed next to it, and the two are connected to directly charge the energy storage stones, and then the relevant energy transmission equipment is built, which can be something like wires, and then the energy in it is transmitted to each household. You must know that the convenient attribute of psychic energy is relative to those that need to be moved, such as Items like cars and mobile phones are an advantage, but for some larger items like home appliances, this advantage is dispensable. After all, these home appliances will not move at will, and are generally in fixed locations, so we can learn from the model of power transmission plants in the previous technology system. "

"Transmit psychic energy to the homes of the subjects, and then let them connect various electrical devices, so that we can save a lot of energy storage stones. For other items that must use the convenience of energy storage stones, we can still use small pieces of energy storage stones that have been cut. In this way, the two parts are separated. Some items that are inconvenient to move use the psychic energy we have established, while those that are easy to move still maintain the existing method. When Director Wendy inspected the application scenarios of psychic technology, I noticed this and reported this idea to the director, and she also agreed very much. "

"After my extensive research and interviews, I found that when using items such as refrigerators, TVs, ovens, etc. at home, people don't care whether they can be moved. Even after buying these appliances. Most of them are The residents have not moved, they are at a fixed location, and I have also contacted the Ministry of Construction and learned about the relevant situation. If you want to connect the relevant lines to the residents' homes, it is completely feasible, as long as the original power transmission is replaced. The wiring is ready. The charging equipment and factories are already there.”

"Then the most critical issue now is the energy transmission items. In the previous technological era, there were high-voltage transmission wires. So in your design, have you found the 'high-voltage transmission wires' for transporting psychic energy?"

"Return to my God, this is exactly what I want to say. After I came up with this idea and received the support of Dean Wendy, I also summoned a number of partners of the same race to jointly tackle this issue. And recently, I We have achieved significant results. That is a new alloy called magic copper alloy invented by our dwarf research team. The main material is a new alloy formed by mixing magic stone powder into pure copper. With our Experimental data now shows that the loss rate of psychic energy can be reduced to 40%."

"This 40% loss mainly exists in the loss caused when spiritual energy is input into the magic copper and output from the magic copper to the user unit, each accounting for 20%. There is basically no loss during the transmission process. In our case In many experiments, the loss error during transportation is only 0.00096%, which can be said to be negligible.”

"The loss rate of 40% is a bit high. You must know that the existing method only loses 2% of the spiritual energy when charging the energy storage stone. Although energy storage equipment is relatively cheap in the God's Domain, it is so high The loss rate is not a small amount over time.”

"My God, don't worry, we are confident that we can continue to reduce the loss rate. Because after our many experiments, mixing different metals into the magic copper can effectively reduce the loss of spiritual energy. At this time, my team members are still Constantly experimenting with the best ratio, hoping to refine the ideal magic copper."

"Let's put this issue aside for the moment. You just mentioned that magic copper is made of magic stone powder and pure copper. Do we have a lot of magic stone resources in our God's Domain? They won't be controlled by others like energy storage stones, right? .”

"My God, during our exploration of the newly added God's Domain, we detected that the No. 2 peak named War Mountain contains an astonishing amount of magic stones, enough to be used in the God's Domain for tens of thousands of years. The magic stones mixed in the magic copper The content of stone powder is very low. One thousand tons of pure copper only needs to be mixed with one ton of magic stone. This is a relatively stable smelting method we have developed."

"In fact, the most critical thing is not the ratio of the two, but mixing them together evenly. Even if both are mixed in powder form, the uniformity after mixing is also different. In order to solve this problem, We also conducted a lot of experiments and repeated verifications, and by chance, we got the almost perfect first-generation magic copper. The loss of the input and output ends has nothing to do with it, it is just the material conversion. The loss is caused by the inability to bind the spiritual energy well."

Rollo was simply stunned. He had thought that Sanders's thinking was already advanced and open-minded, but he didn't expect to meet Lacto, who was more capable of doing things. Goddess of luck was really taking care of him!

What can we do? Of course, we agree with him: "Lacto will continue to conduct relevant experiments and conquer more advanced technologies as soon as possible. I think your technology has a very bright future. So do everyone here have any objections?"

No, even Wendy shook her head. Although she had previously stated the shortcomings of many psionic technologies, after all, they were developed by her herself. She hoped more than anyone else that psionic technologies could be popularized in the Divine Realm. Although I knew about the dwarves' plan before, I didn't realize that their research was progressing so quickly because of the many affairs. The results that came out were so amazing. She was sincerely happy for the dwarves. The minds of scholars were so simple. They only admired people who were smarter than themselves. This was similar to the thoughts of warriors in some aspects.

"That's good. We have specific directions for the development of civilian technology now being discussed. You can complete the other small details yourself. Next, we want to talk about the application and development of military technology."

"Next, let Harris, director of the Weapons Research and Development Laboratory of the War Bureau, and Zhuang Deyuan, director of the Strategic Weapons Development Institute, introduce the relevant content and future plans."

Tie Yi temporarily took over the job of announcer.

After Harris and Zhuang Deyuan made simple preparations, Harris spoke first.

"Our weapons research and development laboratory is affiliated to the War Bureau. Therefore, we focus more on future war models and battlefield ecology. Previously, we cooperated with the technology laboratory to develop the PsyWalker heavy tank that integrates psychic technology. and a series of technological upgrades such as psychic armored vehicles, thanks to Dean Wendy’s research and development of psychic technology.”

"After the theocracy was established this time, we handed over a large number of branch equipment and small equipment to the Strategic Weapons Development Institute led by Dean Zhuang Deyuan, and we put more efforts into the research and development of large equipment and influence on future wars. Equipped with battlefield capabilities.”

"Before this, we developed an upgraded version of psychic artillery. Thanks to the team led by Vice President Zhuang Deyuan, the upgraded research and development of psychic technology can be said to be an important branch of psychic technology. This On the one hand, Dean Zhuang Deyuan will explain it in detail later.”

"And our weapons and equipment research and development room mainly focuses on the development of spaceships, because according to the previous oracle of my god, our future enemies will be races that can survive and fight in the cosmic environment. In addition to our individual strength, In addition to striving to improve, we also need some equipment that is more suitable for the space battlefield, and the spaceship project was born.”

"Of course there are many departments involved in this plan, including some colleges of the Institute of Science and Technology Research and Development. They are mainly responsible for the civilian version of the spacecraft, while we are mainly responsible for the military version of the armed spacecraft, which can also be called the research and development of space battleships. ”

"During the development of space battleships, we encountered many problems, the most important of which is that after our extensive research and experiments, we found that psychic technology cannot be applied to space battleships. I mainly refer to the power system, because for With the prospect of future technology and the prediction of the space battlefield, our space battleships and even spaceships must have the ability to fly at warp speed or the ability to jump in space. These are the highest achievements in the field of science and technology and the highest achievements in the field of magic respectively. , even if the two are used together, there are still some problems that need to be solved.”

"The psychic technology developed by Dean Wendy has very powerful characteristics. It is very stable in energy transmission and has great potential. This is its advantage. But if this characteristic is placed on the power system of a spacecraft, , becomes a shortcoming.”

"The power system of the space battleship requires very stable explosive energy. Obviously psychic technology cannot meet this requirement. The psychic burst technology studied by Vice President Zhuang Deyuan only slightly changes the nature of psychic energy. It will Sexuality is stimulated at once, which means that it stimulates the instantaneous explosiveness of psychic technology. This does not meet the power needs of the space battleship, so we have to abandon this advanced technology. "

"While researching the scientific and technological information given by our god, we discovered an energy technology that is very suitable for the power system of the space battleship, nuclear fusion energy technology. Of course, this energy technology lags far behind psychic technology, and it requires equipment. It occupies a very large area, but its sustained explosiveness is very good. It can be said that it was born for spaceships.”

“After in-depth research, we felt that this technology still has the potential to be improved, so we tried to optimize its structure and upgrade its material technology, because we have more advanced material technology to improve its overall performance. , Secondly, we also envision integrating space technology or psychic technology into them to enable them to have more advanced application scenarios.”

Lingneng Technology's blank energy storage stone charging equipment comes from clean energy sources such as wind power, geothermal power and hydropower. The previous thermal power generation was a more polluting power generation method and has long been abandoned.

“This is what our department is doing now and where future research is headed.”

After Harris finished explaining, Zhuang Deyuan took over.

"After the previous theocracy was established, we took over the research and development of various types of rifles, light weapons, and small vehicles from the science and technology laboratory. Based on the Flame No. 1 infantry cannon, we also designed a more powerful heavy artillery , But firstly, the weight of such weapons and equipment is greatly increased, which is not conducive to battlefield use. Secondly, after we tested its damage, we found that it did not meet our requirements, which brought our research and development work to a standstill. "

"But then by chance, a team member had a whimsical idea, and he designed a destructive test on the full energy storage stone. A huge explosion accidentally occurred. The damage at that time could reach more than ten times of the No. 1 artillery. times, so we followed this idea and continued to improve psychic energy or develop a branch of it to strengthen its explosiveness and weaken its stability, and successfully developed the explosive technology of psychic energy. It’s called psychic diffusion technology.”

"This technology is just like what Minister Hades said before. It is an instant explosive power. It will cause a huge amount of damage the moment it lands after a successful launch or touches the target. However, the energy consumption in the energy storage stone is It is very large. According to our tests, a standard energy storage stone can only fire two such attacks, and its requirements for materials have also increased accordingly. The second-level chaos alloy can only be used reluctantly. After firing more than 20 shots It was scrapped after that. So although we have this kind of technology, we still need the help of some departments, especially the dwarves who are good at metallurgy, to develop stronger and more durable metals."

"This is the current situation of our Equipment Development Institute."

Rollo made the final comment, "Your plan is very complete. I am very pleased. There is nothing to point out. Just follow your pace."

"In addition to the research and development of weapons and equipment, I would also like to say that an important factor in the development of science and technology is the training of future youth. This requires the joint efforts of the education department and various colleges. I heard that you have relevant charters, so I will use them Let’s explain it to you at this conference.”

The Minister of Education said: “Before the political system was established, we had plans to establish Shendu University. However, this plan has been delayed until now due to various factors that forced the war and the establishment of the political system. We have made more detailed research plans, and our initial decision is to use the strength of each college in the Institute of Science and Technology Development and Research to build a university that is more inclined to college majors, and then establish corresponding comprehensives in the main cities and divine capitals of each race. Sex universities, these two types of universities have equal status, but have different preferences.”

"The main problem now is that we still have too few scholars in related fields. Although the newly joined goblin scholars have strong learning abilities, their time is still short after all. They can only serve as part-time assistant teachers to teach, while the main lecturers are Very scarce. Previously, the members of the Science and Technology Research Laboratory were given the priesthood of scientists by God, which greatly improved their research and development and knowledge levels. However, after all, there are only a few people who have no skills and have to do research and study, which takes a lot of time. It’s really hard to turn around.”

Rollo pondered for a while and felt that this problem was very difficult. After all, he could not directly instill knowledge into your mind. That would only allow you to see the knowledge but not understand it.

"Then you should postpone the construction of other comprehensive universities and focus on building professional universities and Shendu University, a comprehensive university. Wait until there is sufficient talent before building other comprehensive universities. And I suggest that among the professional colleges mentioned before In the middle, we will build an additional normal college to train teachers in our God’s Domain.”

The Minister of Education readily accepted the order, which was the best outcome.

"Okay, there are no other questions, so our meeting ends here. I wish our first centenary plan will be successfully completed."
