I Made Scientific Magic

Chapter 625 Element Seven and High-Dimensional Matter

“Isn’t it too wasteful to use an entire world as a pasture for cultivating monsters?”

Although the planetary ranch plan proposed by Lynn is very shocking and can solve the most troublesome problem of the current parliament, Raphael and others still feel that there is something wrong.

That is a whole star of life!

"A planet is nothing..." Lin En naturally saw everyone's doubts and couldn't help but said with a smile. "Don't forget, geometric civilization gave us three star systems, and there are at least two more planets with life like this!"

If they can master the corresponding ecological transformation technology, or gain life or create a kind of priesthood, they can also transform other planets in the system. Therefore, the living planet is too rich for them, and the empire simply cannot There just wasn't enough of a population to colonize.

 “The population of the kingdom is still too small!” Linn said with a sigh.

 In the past thousand years, under the rule of the empire and the church, the total number of citizens on this continent was approximately 20 million.

 Thanks to their lightning speed in ending the war that swept the continent, the population did not decrease on a large scale, but instead increased a lot.

 The increased population is mainly liberated slaves and hidden hermits. They were not counted in the empire's statistics before, but it is naturally different now. All people who have been oppressed by the nobility and the church are the most loyal subjects of the kingdom!

　　Coupled with the incorporated barbarians in the north and the halflings who escaped from foreign lands, the population once again increased by about five million.

However, in the past ten years, fertility has been the main driver of population growth!

Due to the rapid improvement in living standards and the lack of protective measures, the number of births has soared as if equipped with rocket thrusters. The population has naturally caused a surge, soaring from 25 million to 60 million people!

The population has nearly doubled in more than ten years. This is undoubtedly a terrifying rate, but it is also very normal. Roughly speaking, the average annual growth rate is only 9%. In fact, if it were not for the tight working schedule, Adding a few million more people to the population won't be a problem.

 Under the imperial child labor system, the first batch of teenage children were already able to participate in the work. These newly added laborers who had received basic education largely made up for the gap in skilled workers.

Even so, in Linn's view, it is still far from enough. If you want to support a huge galaxy civilization, tens of billions of people are not enough, and a hundred billion level is just barely enough.

“The growth rate of the population must continue to accelerate. In fact, we can consider using some rewards or honors to encourage births...” Lin En gave Harrov and others suggestions based on the policies that encouraged births in previous lives.

If he remembered correctly, in his previous life, when agricultural civilization was gradually moving towards industrial civilization, some countries even achieved a natural population growth rate of more than 20% per year. It only took 1.66 million people to go from a population of 60 million to 1 billion. Years, this is the horror of exponential growth!

In any case, they don’t need to worry about insufficient resources now. The more population, the better. If they wait until the rise of humanistic thought, it will be a fantasy to have such fertility again.

"By the way, Speaker Linn..." Vittorio on the side said quickly as if he thought of something. "Just a month ago, those Geometry Stars sent two warships to hand over part of the compensation."

At that time, Lin En happened to be out of contact, and suddenly discovered that the fleet of geometric civilization appeared in the galaxy, which scared them to death.

 Fortunately, it turned out that it was just a false alarm. "Element No. 7?" Linn paused and quickly guessed what the handover compensation was, and immediately became interested.

He had seen the so-called element No. 7 in the memories of some Geometry Star people, but it was not the brains of scientific researchers that he retrieved, so he only got part of the basic information.

However, the geometric civilization has been hiding it tightly, and they almost got into a fight because of it during the previous negotiations. This is enough to prove the importance of element seven. It is something that even galaxy-level civilizations regard as a treasure. This is also He specifically asked Raphael to ask for it during the negotiation.

"Have you researched anything in this month?" Lin En asked curiously.

Vittorio's expression suddenly became a little strange. "This element is very strange. It seems to have no fixed form. We have used many methods but cannot accurately calculate its mass and volume. Even using the Great Disintegration Technique, we cannot break it..."

Vittorio's words made Linn even more interested. Even if he postponed the original process of receiving the wind, he first went to the location where Element Seven was placed.

The Parliament obviously knew the importance of this thing, so after completing the handover with the Geometric Civilization fleet, it placed it at the bottom of the Sky Tower, and the guard was also very tight.

 About half an hour later, Linn passed through a door engraved with runes and saw the long-awaited element number seven.

It was a mass of material the size of a fist, glowing slightly, just like what Vittorio said, its shape was constantly changing. At the same time, Linn also noticed subtle changes in the surrounding space.

This is not like a twist caused by quality, but a more profound impact.

Harov, who is the most knowledgeable about element seven, couldn’t help but speak. "I found that this thing seems to be somewhat similar to the godhead. I suspect that it is probably a kind of..."

“Higher dimensional matter!” Linn took Harrov’s words and agreed with this point of view. He instantly understood why the geometric civilization paid so much attention to it.

Ordinary high-dimensional matter is not a rare thing, because microscopic particles all possess high-dimensional properties. In a sense, all matter has more than three dimensions. However, the macrocosm seems to have some limitations. Once these microscopic particles are arranged, When aggregated into macroscopic matter, it loses its original high-dimensional characteristics.

Element No. 7 is different. Its volume is trillions of trillions of times that of microscopic particles, but it can still exist in a high-dimensional state. This particularity is where its value lies!

Lynn stretched out his hand, and under the pull of magic power, the seventh element suspended at the bottom of the tower floated over and landed in his palm.

Immediately afterwards, a large amount of divine power carrying will poured into it, and soon Linn noticed the difference. If the divine power was compared to water flow, then this palm-sized material mass was like a bucket that could not be filled. , receiving a steady stream of water but showing no signs of filling up...
