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

have to say.

The warships of the Lator civilization made this research and development work a lot smoother.

Lu Yongchang and others completed the basic principle analysis of the magnetic field shield in just one week.

two weeks later.

Lu Yongchang's voice sounded from the speakers in the laboratory.

"Attention all units."

"The first magnetic field shield experiment is about to begin."

Not bad.

With the "help" of the Lator civilization, it took only two weeks for Lu Yongchang and others to imitate the first prototype.

Rather than calling it a prototype, it might be better to call it a magnetic field shield generating unit.

Similar to the Hall propulsion unit, a complete magnetic field shield requires the cooperation of a large number of magnetic field shield generation units to produce it.

From the appearance point of view, it is very similar to the magnetic field shield generator of the Lator civilization.

A whole black hemisphere.

The diameter of the hemisphere reached ten meters.

At that time, these hemispheres will be installed on the surface of the hull, just like the Lator civilization.

Compared with the magnetic field shield generation unit on Latour's secondary flagship, the human-made magnetic field shield generation unit is still slightly smaller.

But this is not a technical problem, but the limitation of the experimental site.

After all, the shipboard laboratory is only a small space.

For the sake of safety, the magnetic field shield generating unit was placed in a specially-made large isolation room after reducing power consumption.

……

in front of the test bench.

Lu Yongchang looked at the picture in the holographic projection, and a touch of excitement flashed in his eyes: "Start the experiment!"

"Activate the magnetic shield generation unit!"

A slight hum came from all around.

The energy of the fusion reactor quickly passes through the normal temperature superconducting wire and flows into the black hemisphere.

next moment.

The magnetic field strength data in the holographic projection soared rapidly in a straight line!

A large amount of data flows quickly in front of everyone like running water!

Lu Yongchang frowned slightly, staring at the data flow in the holographic projection.

half an hour.

His frowning brows relaxed, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face: "It seems that the first experiment will be successful."

On the side, Cao Liangcai and Tao Yuda cast surprised and strange looks at Lu Yongchang.

"Teach, professor." Tao Yuda swallowed, and asked in a low voice, "Can you really keep up with these data..."

Before he finished speaking, he smiled wryly and closed his mouth.

What the hell is he asking?

That's Lu Yongchang, Professor Lu!

If you ask yourself this, isn't it just asking yourself to humiliate yourself?

Sure enough, in the next second, the humming gradually subsided, and Zero's voice also sounded quickly.

"The magnetic field shield has been successfully generated."

In the hologram, a simulated magnetic field image from zero appears simultaneously.

Outside the hemisphere, there is a circle of extremely high-intensity magnetic field.

Just like the Earth's magnetic field.

However, compared with the earth's magnetic field, the magnetic field generated by the magnetic field shield generating unit is more regular and easier to control.

The shield has been successfully generated, so the next step is naturally to test the strength of the shield.

"Ready to attempt an ion beam weapon attack."

Lu Yongchang reached out and pressed a few buttons in the holographic image.

In the isolation room, a small ion beam generator was quickly activated and launched its own attack forward!

Whether it's ion beams or magnetic field shields, they are invisible to human eyes.

Therefore, Lu Yongchang and others can only rely on zero real-time computing simulation images to understand what happened in the isolation room.

in the simulation screen.

I saw a slender "yellow beam" shooting straight towards the translucent magnetic field shield in the distance.

With hardly any reaction time, the "beam" slammed into the shield.

At the same time, the output power of the magnetic field shield generating unit rises instantly!

And that "yellow light beam", under the action of a strong magnetic field, easily slid through an extremely natural and beautiful arc, bypassed the shield generation unit as the target, and slammed into the extremely high-intensity area of ​​the isolation room. on the wall.

"Ion beam weapon, successfully intercepted." Zero quickly gave the answer to the first experiment.

"it is good!"

Seeing this scene, Cao Liangcai's eyes were full of excitement, and he couldn't help shouting in a low voice!

Lu Yongchang nodded in satisfaction.

Due to the limited space, he couldn't test the limit of the magnetic field shield generating device, so he directly started the second test.

"Continue to experiment with the next weapon."

"Plasma bomb ready."

"Five seconds countdown."

"emission!"

Unlike ion beam weapons, plasma bombs are visible to the naked eye!

I saw a group of faint blue high-temperature plasma with golden arcs flashing on the surface, rushing towards the shield quickly!

boom!

At the moment of the impact, the output power of the shield generating unit rose again at a speed visible to the naked eye!

At the same time, under the obstruction of the strong magnetic field, the plasma bomb spread out out of thin air, and the high-temperature plasma in it slid to both sides along the direction of the magnetic field, and outlined the general shape of the magnetic field shield.

"The interception was successful." Zero's calm voice sounded again.

After a brief silence, there was a burst of cheers in the laboratory.

"It's not over yet." Lu Yongchang's eyes were full of smiles, but he still said, "Try an electromagnetic cannon attack."

The powerful magnetic shield also has a certain deflection effect on the projectiles of the electromagnetic gun.

This point has been confirmed in the war with the Rathor civilization.

Therefore, in that unequal battle, only laser weapons could cause damage to warships equipped with magnetic field shields.

Even, for the flagship equipped with a gravitational field shield, the laser weapons of the human fleet have little effect.

"warn!"

Just as Lu Yongchang was about to press the launch button, Zero sounded the alarm.

"The calculation results show that the power of the shield generating device is not enough to intercept Type II electromagnetic gun projectiles. Do you want to continue firing?"

Lu Yongchang looked as usual, obviously he expected this result.

"Confirm launch."

"Adjust the power of the shield generation unit to the highest level."

Ion beam weapons and plasma weapons are too powerful to carry out further experiments in the laboratory.

But the electromagnetic gun is different.

Even if the Type II electromagnetic gun is out of control, as long as it fires the most common shells, it will not cause too much damage to 【Earth】.

In order to more accurately detect the data of the shield generating unit, this risk is worth taking.

After a short wait, the small electromagnetic gun was fully charged and fired a shell forward.

"boom!"

"Drip! Drip! Drip!"

With a loud bang, harsh sirens sounded in the laboratory!

"Interception failed."

"The shield generator is broken."

"Cause analysis..."

Lu Yongchang shrugged helplessly, and turned to look at the analysis interface aside.

What else could be the reason?

It's just a lack of power.

The analysis report given by Zero also confirmed this point.

The magnetic field shield did deflect the flight trajectory of the electromagnetic gun projectile, but due to insufficient power, it still hit the shell of the shield generating unit.

Chapter 430 Promotion, Level [-] Civilization

Laboratory number one.

Lu Yongchang and a group of scientific researchers stood in front of the huge holographic projection, quietly watching the changing charts and data in it.

on the side screen.

Under Zero's control, several robots have entered the isolation room in an orderly manner and started the aftermath work - the shield generation unit destroyed by the electromagnetic cannon projectile needs to be cleaned up.

"Collect the data and prepare to start the next study."

Lu Yongchang looked away, with a little excitement in his eyes, and gave the order.

According to the research plan, after the successful experiment of a single shield generation unit, they need to study how to make multiple shield generation units work together.

Although there are ready-made algorithms on the warships of the Lator civilization, the structures of the warships of the two civilizations are completely different, and it is obviously inappropriate to apply them mechanically.

Faced with Lu Yongchang's order, Cao Liangcai naturally agreed repeatedly, and turned around to start processing various data generated during the experiment.

In the original plan, Lu Yongchang would definitely participate in such an important task as sorting out the experimental data!

But at the moment when the experiment was successful, he noticed something strange coming from the depths of his mind!

This familiar feeling...

The technology tree has been promoted!

Thinking of all the new technologies of the third-level civilization, Lu Yongchang couldn't hold back.

So, he took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "I'll go to rest for a while, let Ling call me if there is any problem."

Hearing this, Tao Yuda, who was immersed in processing the data, couldn't help being stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Professor Lu chose to rest at such a time?

It's a rare thing.

Maybe it's because I was too tired during this time.

He looked at the thick dark circles around Lu Yongchang's eyes, and thought to himself.

The next moment, Tao Yuda withdrew his thoughts, nodded, and responded softly.

"Don't worry, Professor, it's just some basic data sorting work, Academician Cao and I can handle it."
