I Am Also An Extraordinary Creature-Chapter 1365 - 973: Ultra-High Efficiency
"The Firmament Wheel here doesn’t require excessive strength testing. With the support of the World Tree, many parts can be compatible and operational."
One of the construction leaders of the Super Firmament Wheel explained some of the situations here to Zheng Yichen.
In terms of energy, the Firmament Wheel doesn’t need a star core battery; just set up the corresponding energy extraction device, and the World Tree can provide sufficiently stable energy support.
In other respects, such as ecological issues, the World Tree can also easily maintain stability, and the locals don’t need this Super Firmament Wheel for interstellar travel.
If interstellar travel is really necessary, then the role of this Firmament Wheel is as a propeller, extending the power of the World Tree to propel the entire planet.
"Impressive! How’s the spatial problem being handled?" Zheng Yichen asked about the most critical matter. This Super Firmament Wheel is like the crown of the World Tree.
Compared to the specifications of the World Tree, it is relatively small, but when placed in a city for comparison, even large cities are within the coverage of the Firmament Wheel.
If this thing were fixed in a particular world, there would be no issues using it, but the Firmament Wheel Zheng Yichen wants is one that moves with him.
Despite the existence of something like Virtual Genesis, a simulated world, the virtual is ultimately created through simulation, and there’s still a difference from the real thing.
Even though the core of the virtual world can simulate most things, if there are choices in terms of environment, Lilith still prefers conducting some simulation tests in a real environment.
Even if there’s a 0.001% difference, Lilith considers it imperfect; for artificial intelligence, any probability of dissatisfaction is considered a flaw.
At least in this regard, Lilith maintains this ’attitude,’ and Zheng Yichen personally sees nothing wrong with this pursuit of perfection.
"Regarding spatial technology, after lowering the requirements, the problems encountered before have been resolved. Please follow me." The explaining leader led Zheng Yichen to a laboratory.
This lab mainly researches space-related technology, and inside a sealed container, Zheng Yichen saw a small model.
The leader informed him that this was a building processed with spatial technology.
A building with a footprint of over 2000 square meters, yet it’s concentrated in such a small container.
"This is just an initial attempt and quite successful, the only issue being the relatively high energy consumption. However, after optimizing the structure of spatial technology, the energy loss can be further reduced."
The leader elaborated on this spatial technology. The breakthrough in this field was achieved in a short time thanks to the new technical information provided by Zheng Yichen and support from the Dusk Mercenary Group.
They have already pre-ordered several Firmament Wheels, and in addition to resource exchange, the pre-order includes technology supply.
Overall, the Dusk Mercenary Group still profits.
But for their world, achieving a technological breakthrough is worthwhile, as they can explore resources from other planets in the future.
The premise is that there is a genuine breakthrough in spatial technology. Even the current stage of breakthroughs has brought them considerable benefits.
"I don’t know much about this technology, so it’s up to you guys." Zheng Yichen expressed his role as a hands-off boss in this area, and the leader smiled without saying much.
Zheng Yichen may not understand some technologies, but the Proxy Agent in front of him is definitely not someone who can be easily deceived, plus they have no intention to deceive.
The Super Firmament Wheel Zheng Yichen desires is the best.
Afterward, the leader took Zheng Yichen to visit other places where breakthroughs in new technology were being made, and the construction period of this Firmament Wheel here is two months...
This efficiency even made Zheng Yichen click his tongue; for such a superstructure that serves as the head of the World Tree, is this really the time it takes?
But later he understood why such efficiency was possible; it all depended on the support from the World Tree. Some construction modules could be directly processed by the World Tree.
No need for molds—the World Tree can independently shape molds, and they are adaptable, with high precision requirements. Despite being wooden, the World Tree was incredibly strong.
The wooden parts serving as molds are even stronger than some ultra-high-strength alloys.
Additionally, with the help of the giant dragons living on the World Tree, the construction period was greatly shortened.
After all, the World Tree itself is like a super manufacturing workshop.
Once the blueprints are placed inside, a whole bunch of parts gets spat out like it’s raining, making even the robots that were meant to work unable to keep up with the progress.
The efficiency of robots, initially considered high, was completely surpassed by a tree.
This made people from the Firmament Wheel world and Chiang Wei’s world especially impressed. When such a tree becomes proactive, it’s extraordinarily impressive.
They had reviewed some history in this world. Previously, the World Tree was more like a symbolic existence, rarely interfering with any beings, becoming active only after extraterrestrial invasions.
Thus, other worlds have conflicting thoughts about such a presence as the World Tree—they desire it but also reject it.
The reason? The World Tree is uncontrollable yet entirely connected to the planet, and more importantly, the World Tree has consciousness. While it’s not necessarily bad on a backward world, in a technologically advanced world, it could lead to trouble.
"Two months, huh."
Zheng Yichen pondered; this world can afford to wait.
"We’re currently transporting some rare resources, and two months is enough to complete the transport. Once the Super Firmament Wheel prototype passes testing, it can be conducted here immediately."
The leader spoke to Zheng Yichen; items like star core batteries, despite having the technology, cannot be produced in this world and must be brought from their world, along with other materials.
Aside from those rare materials, the remaining material parts can be resolved domestically, without needing to search this planet—they can acquire the needed materials from nearby planets.
They’ve researched extraterrestrial spaceships to some extent, even adjusting some programs in the ships. Now, if they want, they can use the ship for interstellar travel.
However, those ships aren’t theirs, and they still need Zheng Yichen’s authorization to use them.
In this matter, Zheng Yichen has always been accommodating.
"I’m increasingly looking forward to the subsequent Super Firmament Wheel. Where’s your server port? I’d like to upload something."
"Oh, please follow me." The leader was momentarily stunned and quickly led Zheng Yichen to another computer room.
She knew Zheng Yichen had a super artificial intelligence more advanced than even Chiang Wei’s, and Zheng Yichen probably located the server port upon arriving.
But now he followed the formal process; isn’t this a bit too good?
The leader didn’t ask what Zheng Yichen intended to upload, as long as it wasn’t harmful.
After completing the data upload, Zheng Yichen waved his hand: "You all continue; I’ll go take a look elsewhere."
After Zheng Yichen left, a group of people in a conference room looked bewildered at the newly uploaded data, which included some information about other worlds and updates on the Great World’s data.
This information had them stunned, particularly the newly developed Breakworld technology from the Great World seemed unbelievable.
The concept of inside the world and Outer Realm was harder to believe the more technologically advanced a world became.
Immortality Cultivation and magic worlds could accept it to some extent.
To a technologically advanced world, given the vastness of the universe, what exactly is the Outer Realm? Outside the universe?
After examining the information Zheng Yichen provided, they realized that it indeed refers to beyond the universe, but there’s no need to develop superluminal speed or spatial jump technologies to forcibly find the universe’s edge.
The Outer Realm, given the right conditions, can be accessed at any time, but it’s not about breaking through space—it’s a method transcending the fracture of space.
The idea of two worlds colliding made them feel rather complicated, and they gained new insights about the Great World.
"Isn’t the Proxy Agent worried we might feel despair after giving us such information?" someone said with a slightly strained smile, as they had always viewed the Great World as a hypothetical enemy.
But now, the level of this hypothetical enemy was so high that even trying to overestimate, they still underestimated.
"Despair for what? Even if the Great World presents new technologies, the fact that the Proxy Agent can send such data over means the problem can still be resolved."
No matter how exaggerated the technology from the Boundary Breaking Organization in the Great World, the Proxy Agent managed to outmatch them.
Although the Proxy Agent isn’t one of them, the party currently remains their steadfast ally. And they are responsible for the Proxy Agent’s logistical issues.
The Super Firmament Wheel is such a large order that hasn’t even been delivered yet.
"That’s true, but even with the Proxy Agent, Dusk Mercenaries remain the real core; they’ve been establishing some Dusk mercenaries in their respective worlds, consolidating the national power of a whole planet to provide those Dusk mercenaries with the best equipment when they operate."
The result is an extremely high mission completion rate. Due to the connection with the storage cabinet, after interacting with different types of worlds, they immediately receive corresponding samples, which makes reverse engineering no longer an issue. This is why the Dusk mercenaries are a crucial presence.
