Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba-Chapter 382 - 383: Confidential Meeting! Equivalent Technology Exchange!

Chapter 382: Chapter 383: Confidential Meeting! Equivalent Technology Exchange!

The brilliant Magic Crystal Technology once made the Purple Crystal Cosmic Civilization become another Cosmic-level Civilization in this universe after the Holy Mark Civilization.

However, the difficulty of learning Magic Crystal Technology increases geometrically.

The further you go, the harder it becomes to learn and master.

At the height of the Purple Crystal Civilization, they were in a state of invincibility.

This led many citizens of the Purple Crystal Civilization to not strive to delve deeply into Magic Crystal Technology.

Even when the Purple Crystal Civilization declined from its peak, it remained a cosmic overlord.

Even the then incredibly powerful Divine Race did not have the ability to challenge the Purple Crystal Civilization.

When they sealed off the Purple Crystal Star Realm to enjoy peace, even fewer people were willing to work hard on Magic Crystal Technology.

After all, the universe has an ultimate end, and the Purple Crystal Civilization did not have the ability to escape this current universe.

Moreover, the wealth they accumulated was enough for them to sustain themselves until the universe’s end.

Since they could comfortably proceed until the universe’s destruction, there was no need to exert effort.

After all, no matter how hard they tried, they could not reach the heights of the Holy Mark Civilization.

After Gu Qijue came to the Magic Crystal Technology Association for exchange, he gained more understanding of Magic Crystal Technology.

In short, it is a technology with high learning difficulty and many usage limitations.

If over these five billion years, the Purple Crystal Civilization developed other technologies, Magic Crystal Technology might have already been eliminated.

But the Purple Crystal Civilization had no need to develop new technology, so no one did it.

Technology is not inevitable, and civilization is not inevitable either.

Just like on some planets, upright apes evolved over millions of years to possess civilization and technology.

But dinosaurs, even over hundreds of millions of years, might not possess civilization and technology.

The reason is simple, dinosaurs on the planet could eat whoever they wanted, fight whoever they wanted, do whatever they wanted.

The entire group was invincible on the surface for hundreds of millions of years, so of course, they didn’t need to develop technology or civilization.

Although the Purple Crystal Civilization couldn’t properly inherit and develop Magic Crystal Technology, Gu Qijue was very interested in it.

Through the analysis of the Infinite Engine, Magic Crystal Technology proved to be exceedingly useful and could serve as an adhesive.

It could bind Crystal Race Technology, Holy Mark Technology, and other excellent technologies together.

This was a massive project, but the Infinite Engine could completely accomplish it.

The technology, once refined and purified in this way, could become the exclusive technology of the Infinite Empire: Infinite Technology!

With these thoughts in mind, Gu Qijue began negotiations with the Supreme Mage of the Magic Crystal Technology Association.

The head of the Magic Crystal Technology Association had the compound surname Wenren and the given name Yingwei.

Gu Qijue was very interested in Magic Crystal Technology, and Wenren Yingwei was equally interested in external technologies.

After both parties were seated, Wenren Yingwei spoke first.

"Principal Gu, Magic Crystal Technology can be exchanged on an equivalent basis with external technology."

"We are responsible for explaining Magic Crystal Technology to Principal Gu. Should there be anything Principal Gu does not understand, inquiries are welcome."

"Conversely, Principal Gu is to provide us with external technology materials and corresponding guidance."

Previously, when they closed off their stars, learning external technologies wasn’t necessary.

Now, it is different; they need to temporarily set aside Magic Crystal Technology to study simpler external technologies.

It’s not that Magic Crystal Technology is ineffective, but rather that the learning cost is too high, and the learning difficulty too great.

Without an extremely high learning aptitude and patience, one might not master much Magic Crystal Technology in a lifetime.

External technologies, on the other hand, are different. The learning capabilities of various external technologies are very low, while their applicability is extremely broad.

After Wenren Yingwei spoke, all other Supreme Mages of the Magic Crystal Technology Association focused their attention on Gu Qijue.

To everyone, Gu Qijue was an excellent collaborative partner.

Gu Qijue had already gained the recognition of the South Emperor, and his Infinite Empire had mastered extremely advanced technologies.

Most importantly, the forces of the Infinite Empire were not very strong; it was an emerging Star Cluster-level Civilization.

To the Purple Crystal Civilization, the Infinite Empire was safe, and both Infinite Empire and its Supreme Leader, Gu Qijue, were controllable.

Gu Qijue, unaware of Wenren Yingwei’s various considerations, agreed to his proposal.

"No problem, we can exchange various foundational and mid-to-high-end technologies on a value-for-value basis as per this agreement."

Gu Qijue had access to high-end and top-tier technologies for exchange with the Magic Crystal Technology Association but chose not to offer them.

Besides, with foundational and mid-to-high-end technologies mastered, the rest of the work could entirely be left to the Infinite Engine.

Upon hearing Gu Qijue’s words, Wenren Yingwei nodded as well: "Very good, we share the same thoughts."

"So, how should we begin the equivalent exchange of each other’s technologies?"

Gu Qijue raised his hand to take out a Crystal Card, recording all foundational and mid-to-high-end technologies of the Infinite Empire in one go.

The foundational technology of the Infinite Empire was a fusion of Star Cluster Alliance Technology, Crystal Race Technology, Holy Mark Technology, and Kleinian Technology.

One could say that this Crystal Card in Gu Qijue’s hand would hold immense value for any Star Cluster-level Civilization or Super Star Cluster Level Civilization within the Star Cluster Alliance.

Gu Qijue handed the Crystal Card over to Wenren Yingwei and said:

"The foundational technology and mid-to-high-end technology of the Infinite Empire are all in this Crystal Card."

"After you study and research it, if there are aspects you don’t understand, you can jot them down, and I will provide a unified response later."

"After you’ve completely mastered the foundational technology and mid-to-high-end technology of the Infinite Empire."

"Just then, provide me with the equivalent Magic Crystal Technology."

Gu Qijue was both sincere and bold.

Seeing him so bold, Wenren Yingwei certainly did not want to be outdone.

Immediately he said: "Principal Gu, please hold on, my side needs to convene for a meeting."

Gu Qijue nodded: "Please go ahead."

Wenren Yingwei immediately stood up and swiftly convened the entire assemblage of Supreme Mages from the Magic Crystal Technology Association for a meeting.

In a confidential conference room, Wenren Yingwei turned to the other Supreme Mages and spoke candidly: "We cannot be outdone by Gu Qijue."

"I’ve decided to follow Gu Qijue’s approach by providing him with the foundational knowledge and mid-high-tier knowledge of Magic Crystal Technology."

"Your thoughts?"

After he finished speaking, the others began to speak in turn.

"I agree!"

"This approach works!"

"I disagree!"

"I agree."

In no time at all, four-fifths of them had cast affirmative votes.

There was nothing left to say; Wenren Yingwei, like Gu Qijue, recorded the Magic Crystal Technology onto a Crystal Card.

After swapping Crystal Cards, Gu Qijue returned to the Interstellar War Academy.

The numerous Supreme Mages of the Magic Crystal Technology Association could now study the external technology.

Given their learning abilities, every one of them firmly believed that they would undoubtedly surpass their predecessors!
