It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

"Now that the sun has become a white dwarf, it can no longer release as much heat as before. Correspondingly, the surface temperature of Titan will be lower." Lu Yongchang shrugged, reached out and tapped Titan in the projection.

"However, there is no need to worry."

"The temperature inside Titan is not low. The energy mainly comes from the high pressure inside the planet, the decay of the radioactive material in the core, and the friction of the core material caused by Saturn's gravity."

"Therefore, there is a high probability that these jellyfish will survive."

"But it's not necessarily the case in the future."

"After Jupiter absorbs a large amount of material ejected by the sun, it first becomes a brown dwarf, and then becomes a red dwarf. I won't say much about how chaotic the solar system is during this process."

"The point is that this process is very long, at least it will last for tens of thousands of years."

"Even if these jellyfish managed to avoid this disaster, they still have to face Jupiter, which has become a red dwarf."

"Once the new orbits of Saturn and Titan are too close to the red dwarf, these jellyfish will have to face another disaster."

Lu Yongchang looked at Gao Yang with a smile on his face: "Do you understand now?"

"Your worries are probably unnecessary."

Gao Yang nodded blankly: "Thank you, Professor Lu."

Lu Yongchang waved his hand, closed the holographic image in front of him, and stood up from the chair: "Okay, I should go too."

"When the solar storm passes, we have to head to the Kuiper belt."

(Here to explain, the real helium flash only occurs in the core of the sun. Most of the energy of the helium flash is used to promote changes in the core, and a small part of the energy will be blocked by the hydrogen layer on the surface of the sun. Simply For example, the internal reaction of the sun at that time was extremely violent, but nothing could be seen on the surface.)

Chapter 254 Unique Training Method

a few days later.

The huge solar storm caused by the fall of Venus away from the orbit of Jupiter and flew towards Saturn, which is farther away.

After confirming that there is no danger, the human fleet started the journey to the Kuiper belt again after replenishing the helium-[-] reserve.

Under Zero's control, the Hall thrusters at the tail of 1251 starships released a strong light, pushing all the starships gradually away from the huge Jupiter.

In the star system, the acceleration and speed of the starship are not fast.

The reason is also very simple.

They need to use the asteroids in the solar system for "training".

Although it has passed through the relatively dense asteroid belt, things like asteroids may hit a few of them along the way in the solar system.

Just like now.

Not long after leaving Jupiter, the harsh siren sounded in the command center of [Earth].

[Asteroid impact alert! 】

A row of highlighted characters appeared on the holographic image directly in front of the command center.

[Asteroid maximum diameter: 5 kilometers]

[Asteroid coordinates: X (573.4267 kilometers); Y (-328.7123 kilometers); Z (1038.3422 kilometers)]

The coordinate numbers are accurate to the level of 0.1 meters, and as time goes by, the numbers on the coordinates are still beating.

The coordinates here are of course a three-dimensional coordinate system established with the origin of [Earth], the X-axis represents the left and right sides of [Earth], the Y-axis represents up and down, and the Z-axis represents front and back.

Through such a coordinate positioning method, the starship pilot can find the target object extremely quickly.

"Asteroid with a diameter of 5000 meters..."

Lu Yongchang slightly raised his eyebrows, turned to Zhao Zijie who was at the side and said, "Use electromagnetic guns and high-energy lasers to solve it."

Hearing Lu Yongchang's order, Zhao Zijie looked slightly solemn, nodded and pressed the communication button on the console in front of him.

"[Golden Crow] B31, please answer if you receive it."

There was hardly any delay, and an articulate voice came from the communication device.

"[Golden Crow] B31 received."

"please say."

Without any hesitation, Zhao Zijie reached out and pressed a few buttons on the console in front of him.

"B31, 1100 kilometers away from you, there is an asteroid with a maximum diameter of 5000 meters. According to calculations, its trajectory coincides with that of the fleet."

"The solution and the exact position of the asteroid have been sent to your onboard computer."

"Fix it immediately."

As soon as the voice fell, a reply sound came from the communication device: "B31 received!"

A few seconds later, a series of flames and several extremely bright lasers appeared in the lower right corner of 【Earth】.

Under the action of the electromagnetic cannon and the high-energy laser, the innocent asteroid didn't even survive for a few seconds, and it was directly reduced to a piece of dust.

"Report, Target successfully resolved."

As the report sounded, a new line of reminders flashed across the holographic image directly in front of the command center.

【Alarm has been lifted】

Lu Yongchang nodded slowly as he looked at the people who were gradually familiar with this process.

"Yongchang, it seems that your training method is pretty good." Fang Xu chuckled and said in a low voice.

Faced with Fang Xu's praise, Lu Yongchang shook his head and showed a helpless smile.

"I am also helpless."

"Out of the solar system, everyone will go into hibernation."

"When the hibernation is over, we will have a fight with the Proxima Centauri civilization."

"In such a tight time, I can only choose this way for simulation training."

Yes, all of these are training tasks assigned by Lu Yongchang.

He ordered to block Zero's automatic interception function, and all interception operations were manually operated by starship pilots, in order to allow these starship pilots to adapt to space combat as soon as possible.

Fang Xu ignored Lu Yongchang's complaints, but said cheerfully: "It seems that the effect is quite good."

"At least, their operations are much more proficient than before."

"Think about the scene in the asteroid belt... tsk tsk tsk, it's really horrible."

Lu Yongchang also shook his head with a wry smile.

In order to train these pilots, he specially ordered Zero to choose a route with the most dense asteroids.

The result can be imagined.

If Zero hadn't taken over most of the [Golden Crow] battleships at a critical moment, it is estimated that the human fleet would be attrition before it left the solar system.

But the upside of that shocking event was huge, too.

At least, these starship pilots are much more proficient in attacking the target.

Thinking of this, Lu Yongchang shook his head and sighed: "Unfortunately, there are still fewer asteroids in the solar system."

Fang Xu rolled his eyes angrily.

"You can pull it down."

"Why don't you look back and see how the asteroid belt has been destroyed?"

Lu Yongchang's face froze, and he scratched his head with a smirk: "Isn't it just to improve their proficiency as much as possible?"

"Improving your proficiency won't make you go around the asteroid belt three or four times, right?!" Fang Xu complained again, "If this was in ancient times, you would definitely be a good copycat."

"Cough cough!"

Seeing strange looks from some scientific researchers around him, Lu Yongchang twitched the corner of his mouth, coughed twice and changed the subject directly.

"Who is that, Academician Mo Zeyang, come with me."

After speaking, he turned around and walked outside the command center.

……

Hearing his name, Mo Zeyang suddenly raised his head and looked at the podium beside him.

Seeing that Lu Yongchang had already walked out of the gate of the command center, he quickly reached out and pressed the controller on the watch.

The magnetic force of several electromagnetic devices connected to the chair behind the spacesuit disappeared instantly.

Then, with the help of electromagnetic boots, he stood up from the chair and walked quickly towards the gate of the command center.

As soon as he walked out of the gate, he saw Lu Yongchang standing by the porthole, silently staring at Jupiter shrunk into a small ball.

"Professor, what's the matter?"

He slowed down, walked to Lu Yongchang, and asked softly.

Hearing the voice, Lu Yongchang turned his head to look at Mo Zeyang, and said with a gentle smile: "Academician Mo, how is the development progress of the photonic computer?"

The moment Mo Zeyang heard the question, the expression on Mo Zeyang's face became a little dry.

"Professor, there is still not much progress."

"Unlike superconducting circuit quantum computers, photonic computers require a new architectural approach and higher manufacturing technology."

"At present, we don't seem to have such a capability."

Lu Yongchang's complexion was slightly gloomy.

Photonic computers, as the threshold of the second-level civilization in the technology tree system, must have their own unique difficulties, which is also predictable.

But he never expected that a photonic computer technology would block them for two full years!

Chapter 255 The Pale Blue Dot

Perhaps for other civilizations, the advancement of computer technology cannot play a decisive role.

But human civilization is different.

For human civilization with strong artificial intelligence, breakthroughs in computer technology will bring unparalleled improvements!

The most basic improvement is based on the basic construction.

As long as Zero has enough computing power, human beings can achieve endless expansion!

Second, there is the aspect of war.

Although all the tasks of intercepting asteroids are now given to the starship pilots, as long as Lu Yongchang gives an order, Ling can control 250 battleships to form a dense firepower network, and accurately intercept any small asteroid on the flight path of the fleet. planet.

The same goes for swapping asteroids for enemy ships.

With this in mind, Lu Yongchang frowned tightly after learning that the photonic computer research and development project had not made any progress.

"Academician Mo, wait for me to go to the laboratory with you. I hope to overcome the problem of photonic computers as soon as possible."

Unlike other research projects, the photonic computer, as the core research project of human civilization, did not end because of the fleet sailing.

This is also to gain the last bit of probability.

If the photonic computer technology is broken through before leaving the solar system, then mankind will undoubtedly have a greater chance of winning in the future war.

Mo Zeyang was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly nodded in agreement with Lu Yongchang's request.

As the person in charge of the photonic computer project, he naturally wanted Lu Yongchang to help solve this problem.

After all, it is a bit embarrassing to spread the word that you have been stuck on a project for several years.

……

【Earth】in the main laboratory.

Lu Yongchang carefully read the research content of Mo Zeyang and others during this period.

His knuckles tapped rhythmically on the table.

"Tsk..."

Perhaps because the difficulty of the project was far beyond imagination, Lu Yongchang unconsciously clicked his tongue.

In the next second, under the apprehensive eyes of Mo Zeyang and others, he reached out and closed the holographic projection screen in front of him.

Then, he adjusted his sitting posture and closed his eyes.

"Let me think about it and try not to bother me."
