My science and technology museum

It has been quite a while since the last time I entered the Science and Technology Museum to exchange for new technology exhibits. Because the Shenwei Star Destroyer and other redeemable products are being stepped up in production, Xu Lei's amount of influence has become more obvious. increase.

Although the fourth-level civilization science and technology exhibits in the science and technology museum are still a bit limited, it doesn't matter if I exchange them for one.

Mainly, although the trip to the Andromeda Galaxy successfully obtained compensation, it did not prevent an all-out war between the two galaxies.

Judging from the performance of the Clay Empire, the other party will never give up on the Milky Way.

In addition, this time he used space jump in front of the opponent's empire's senior officials. Although it effectively improved the external deterrence of the Milky Way, it also made the enemy take more precautions.

Therefore, when the Andromeda Galaxy invades the Milky Way again, it will inevitably assemble a fleet that is several times or even ten times more powerful than the last time.

This is no small thing for the Milky Way.

You need to be prepared.

Xu Lei's reliance on the Tianren Seven flagship can indeed achieve unexpected results, but after all, there is only one ship, and if a full-scale war breaks out, there will be no resources.

The security of civilization in the galaxy cannot be effectively guaranteed.

In any case, they had all joined the Galaxy Security Defense Alliance, and as Supreme Chancellor, he had the obligation to ensure their safety.

It is out of these considerations that Xu Lei thought of using his existing influence to exchange for a technological exhibit at the Science and Technology Museum, in order to add some trump cards and protection to the galaxy.

Although bloodshed and sacrifice are unavoidable in war, casualties must be reduced as much as possible.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Xu Lei has actually walked into the Science and Technology Museum to exchange exhibits. It is a completely different experience from the previous one that only relied on consciousness to enter.

"Although I have come in countless times, the shock it brings is unparalleled before. It is truly the crystallization of the wisdom of the most powerful civilization in the universe!"

Xu Lei opened the door of the science and technology museum hall again, walked inside and looked at the large number of uniformly formatted booths that could not be covered by his field of vision, and couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart.

As the most powerful civilization in the last universe, Yuanxing spent a huge amount of money to build this science and technology museum in order to preserve the fire of civilization.

In the past, when he was only connected through consciousness, he might not be able to experience the shock brought by the museum, but now that he is in this science and technology museum, the majestic and mysterious special atmosphere even makes his body tremble slightly.

Of course this is a tremor caused by excessive excitement.

Especially when he learned from Mo that this science and technology museum also used core technologies of advanced civilizations such as space folding, he was even more surprised.

It can only be said that he has been the owner of the Cheap Museum for so long that he has a somewhat clear understanding of the museum today.

Facing the endless exhibition stands in front of him, Xu Lei didn't have any worries this time. As soon as he finished speaking, he walked towards the only elevator leading to the upper space.

After all, the lower hall of the Science and Technology Museum collects exhibits from lower civilizations. Although the number is very large, it is no longer helpful to the Milky Way.

His goal is undoubtedly the large collection of technological exhibits of advanced civilizations in the upper levels.

Another point worth mentioning is that in the past, Xu Lei had to search for suitable technology exhibits by himself and rush among countless booths.

It often takes a long time to find something that barely agrees with the request.

That is to say, the Science and Technology Museum uses core technologies such as space folding and high-dimensionalization to make time inside almost stand still. Otherwise, I am afraid that he will not be able to redeem a few exhibits that meet the requirements until his death.

But now the situation is completely different.

Since the Tianren No. 7 recovered the super intelligent brain, the Museum of Science and Technology has also had intelligent managers.

It can automatically select suitable exhibits based on his needs.

The efficiency improvement is not just a little bit.

That's why Xu Lei didn't think of entering the Science and Technology Museum until Tianren No. 7 entered the galaxy. Anyway, the exchange process didn't take long.

Although it was his first time to enter a science and technology museum in the real world, he was very familiar with everything inside because he had no idea how long he had been there, and he quickly entered the upper space of the museum smoothly.

At the same time, the virtual figure of the model appeared in front of him.

And respectful greetings immediately.

"Welcome to the Museum of Universe Civilization Science and Technology. The administrator will be at your service."

Although Mo is also responsible for the operation of Tianren No. 7 and the management of the Science and Technology Museum, he completely adheres to each of his identities.

Now that he is staying in the museum, he always calls Xu Lei as the museum owner, not the captain of Tianren No. 7.

Xu Lei and Mo were already very familiar with each other, so at this time, he would not act like the owner of the restaurant.

Dang even expressed his demands directly.

"Select exhibits that are suitable for the current situation of the galaxy, without worrying about the civilization level to which the exhibits belong."

Xu Lei specifically explained the civilization level of the exhibits because he was worried that the model would screen out technological exhibits that were relatively unpractical.

At that time, the influence is spent, but it cannot change the situation of the galaxy.

Mainly in the past, he used his influence to exchange for technology exhibits in science and technology museums. He could not get the physical objects at all. He could only transfer the technical knowledge involved into his mind and then conduct research and manufacture on his own.

As a result, there will be greater restrictions.

For example, the level of human civilization is limited. If the technology obtained is too advanced, then even if it is mastered, there is no way to realize it.

The synthesis of some materials can be a huge problem.

It is precisely because of this situation that every time he exchanges technology exhibits, he will take these factors into consideration and try to choose some exhibits that human civilization can overcome.

But even so, there is still a big gap between the actual display effects and the museum collections.

But it doesn't matter now.

He himself has entered the Science and Technology Museum. As long as he has enough influence, he can directly take away the exhibits collected using space folding technology on the stand without the need for additional research and reproduction.

So no matter what level of civilization is involved, it has been used.

Even though there is only one available.

But if used properly, it might be able to help the galaxy completely change the situation.

Based on this alone, there is no room for Xu Lei not to pay attention to it.

Mo has served as the mysterious director of the Civilization Administration for so long, and he undoubtedly knows the situation in the galaxy better than anyone else.

I believe you will be able to choose suitable technology exhibits.

"Okay, owner."

After receiving Xu Lei's order, Mo did not dare to hesitate, nodded in response and immediately started taking action.

Immediately afterwards, no movement was seen, but one could clearly see that the entire upper space's booths were emitting a soft light, just like the previous scene where the booths unlocked themselves in the hall.

Xu Lei did not make any move in this regard, and still looked at these changes with a calm expression.

After about ten seconds passed, the light of most of the booths disappeared again, leaving only a few that remained as before.

At the same time, a virtual light curtain also appeared in front of Xu Lei's eyes. On it were the selected exhibit names that are most suitable for the Milky Way at this stage.

“There are so many, I don’t know how to choose!”

Xu Lei raised his eyes and browsed the content on the light screen. He was surprised and couldn't help but sigh to himself.

After careful study, in addition to the familiar giant dreadnoughts, there are also powerful star system security defense systems, as well as space energy cannons that can cause the collapse of space to form artificial black holes, and even weapons that can carry out dimensionality reduction strikes on civilized galaxies.

But the impact of the corresponding needs is also very touching.

Take the giant dreadnought as an example. It cost up to 600 million of influence to exchange for the space jump engine installed in it.

But now if you want to redeem the entire battleship, you need to pay 3 billion influence.

Based on the amount of influence he currently has, he might be able to take down this giant dreadnought, but he would definitely not be able to exchange it for other technological exhibits.

The key giant dreadnought is equivalent to the reduced Tianren No. 7. It is not that easy to produce it.

At least the shipyards on Titan alone are definitely not qualified.

After all, the dreadnought is a product of level four civilization.

If mass production cannot be achieved in a short period of time, then adding only one giant battleship to the galaxy will not actually be of much help.

At least they did not maximize their limited influence.

Therefore, in the end, Xu Lei finally made a decision after careful consideration, coupled with factors such as whether his influence was sufficient, and after struggling for about ten minutes.

"I'll choose you. I hope the results won't disappoint me."

While muttering to himself, he took his eyes away from the virtual light screen in the next second and walked straight towards a booth according to the instructions of the light.

Not long after arriving at the booth, the information screen next to it suddenly came into view.

Name: Space blocking device

Level: Level 4 civilization

Evaluation: Within the coverage area of ​​the space blocking device, space jump is impossible.

Influence: 3.5 billion/3.64 billion

Collection unit: Universe Civilization Science and Technology Museum

As the familiar template jumped into his eyes, Xu Lei could not help but feel a little bitterness on his face, thinking that just by redeeming a technology exhibit, the influence accumulated over such a long time would be exhausted.

To say that I don't feel distressed would be an absolute lie.

As for this space blocking device, Xu Lei chose it carefully.

Nowadays, the solar system has become the strongest civilization in the galaxy, and the Andromeda Galaxy must also know this. Therefore, when an all-out war breaks out between the two galaxies, there is a high probability that the Clay Empire will choose to prioritize the thunder strike on the solar system.

After all, if there is a problem in the solar system, the Milky Way galaxy will also be in danger.

Although he temporarily destroyed the wormhole space node leading to the Red Rock Galaxy, it is not difficult to rebuild it with the resources at the Andromeda Galaxy.

And it will definitely take less time than Renault did.

Who made the original decision to invade the galaxy was Reno's own suggestion. Relying solely on the power of the Legion would definitely be incomparable to the entire empire.

In this case, if the enemy opens the node to the vicinity of the solar system, then even if humans can resist the opponent's attack, I am afraid that the interior of the solar system will be severely affected.

Mainly for human civilization, the Milky Way is still very large. Even with the Alliance patrol fleet, it is impossible to accurately detect traces of the Andromeda Galaxy.

As for Xu Lei's Tianren No. 7, it is even more incapacitated and cannot patrol the periphery all the time.

Therefore, with these considerations in mind, Xu Lei finally chose this space blocking device. Once installed and used, no warship within the covered range can use the wormhole space.

In this way, there is no need to worry too much about the Clay Empire in the solar system.

When the time comes, just be fully prepared and ready to work.

More importantly, the influence he currently has is just enough to pay for this exhibit.

In any case, he was born in the solar system, and he must be more inclined to consider the solar system when facing the danger he is about to face.

It would be best to protect the solar system from war and place the battlefields in other galaxies.

It doesn't matter even if you are called selfish.

What's more, he is the Supreme Speaker of the Galaxy Security and Defense Alliance, and I believe no civilization dares to say anything.

"First ensure the safety of our homeland, then the human fleet can completely let go."

"It's better to give me a little more surprise."

The thought stayed here. After Xu Lei finished speaking to himself, he no longer hesitated and immediately clicked on the note in the lower right corner of the information screen.

I would like to see specific instructions on this space blocking device.

But what he never expected was that the moment his finger touched the information screen, a stream of information data suddenly shot out from the information screen, and forcefully penetrated into his mind.

Since this had never happened before, he was caught off guard by the sudden change.

At such a short distance, there was no time to react.

I can only watch this special flow of information and data enter my mind.

But what followed was a splitting pain in his head.

"Hiss...it really hurts!"

Xu Lei pressed his head with both hands, feeling the pain coming from his head, and he couldn't help but cursed.

You must know that since he successfully condensed the eternal body and turned into a special metal life form, he has basically not been injured.

Even if it is hit by a plasma cannon, there will be no serious problems.

But now I am suffering from headache.

The key is that he has no choice but to endure it.

Because this situation had never occurred before when connecting to the Museum of Science and Technology through consciousness, he was worried that there might be a problem, so he endured the pain and immediately asked the model: "What is going on here, why do I appear like this?" What kind of situation?"

Facing Xu Lei, who was struggling with pain, Mimou still maintained his previous calmness, and even gave programmed answers after hearing the questions.

"Every time the museum owner successfully redeems an exhibit in the museum, the museum's special mechanism will be activated. In addition to forcibly instilling all the information contained in the exhibits into the museum owner's brain, it can also improve the museum owner's brain development."

"Until the mind completely breaks away from the shackles of the physical body and obtains the identity of the source star life."

…

Xu Lei listened to the model's answer word for word and didn't know what to say. He never expected that such a mechanism existed in this science and technology museum.

It turns out that as the source star of the most powerful civilization in the previous universe, its life forms have got rid of the shackles of the physical body and exist simply in a special way of thinking.

Because the brain has reached an unprecedented level of development, it is possible to continuously break through new technologies.

As for the Science and Technology Museum, as the spark of civilization left behind by the Origin Star, its owner will gradually increase his brain development under the influence of the mechanism until he transforms into a real Origin Star being.

Although Xu Lei's body has changed from carbon-based to special metal, he is still a human soul.

This kind of pain in thinking is naturally unavoidable.

But if he continues like this in the future, his eternal body may no longer be able to accommodate his thoughts.

By that time, they might really turn into beings like the Source Star people.

Although it will have unlimited life and even be able to connect consciousness to the galaxy and universe to study the mysteries of the universe, this is not what Xu Lei wants.

After all, when the brain development reaches an extremely high level, thinking will become extremely pure and mysterious, and gradually lose the emotions and feelings that belong to intelligent life.

You know, he still wants to take Chen Shihe to live and retire on a strange planet after the incident in the Andromeda Galaxy is over.

However, with his existing means, he is still unable to solve this hidden danger.

Unless he no longer redeems the exhibits in the Science and Technology Museum.

But this is obviously not possible at this stage.

As for the fact that there had never been a situation like this when exchanging exhibits before, he speculated that it might be that there was only ideology at that time, which happened to meet the requirements of the source star life.

After the pain lasted for a few minutes, Xu Lei finally returned to normal.

Apart from the wry smile, there was also a bit of disappointment on his face.

"After suffering such a serious crime, the resulting coverage is too disappointing. At the moment, we can only take one step at a time and take a look at it."

Recalling the information forced into his mind, he discovered that the space blocking device could not cover the entire solar system.

Not even the Kuiper Belt.

Probably within the first security defense ring of the solar system.

Originally, he thought that this device would best cover the entire galaxy, but now it seems that he has overthought it.

It can only be said that the technical level of this device is too high, and it cannot be manufactured with the current strength of human civilization.

That's why it has such a high impact price.

However, since you have already chosen this exhibit, you can only use it first. After all, there is no such thing as a return in the Science and Technology Museum.

What’s more, he also suffered all the sins.

It is also worth mentioning that Xu Lei did not take the exhibit off the stand immediately.

Because this space blockade device looks small when suspended on the exhibition stand, but it uses space folding technology, its actual size is probably larger than Tianren No. 7 when assembled, so we can only wait until we arrive at a suitable installation location. Then take it out of the museum.

Anyway, according to the flight speed of Tianren No. 7, he will reach the solar system soon.

But whether he should say it or not, this encounter still left him with lingering fears. Thinking that he might become a simple thinking being without emotion, he felt uneasy in his heart.

So until he finds a solution, he can only choose not to exchange for new exhibits as much as possible.

Otherwise, if he continues to exchange for technological exhibits and endure this kind of pain, he really doesn't know how many times he can hold on. Maybe one day the eternal body will collapse because it can't accommodate his thoughts.

When Xu Lei came out of the Science and Technology Museum and returned to the core control center of Tianren 7, under his control, Tianren 7 soon passed through the Kuiper Belt and entered the solar system, and easily passed the first line of security. Defense belt.

To this day, not only everyone in the solar system knows that Tianren No. 7 is Xu Lei's exclusive flagship, even other civilized life forms in the galaxy are also very aware of it.

In this case, a situation similar to the last interception will not occur again.

On the contrary, the personnel of the Ring Monitoring Center were also happy for Xu Lei's return, and immediately notified the members of the Solar System Human Security and Defense Alliance and the Galaxy Security and Defense Alliance.

After successfully passing through the first defensive ring, Tianren No. 7 began to slow down, but still flew towards the interior of the solar system.

However, if someone observes carefully, they will find that the target of Tianren 7 is not Titan or the Earth, Star, and Moon.

It is Mercury, the planet closest to the sun.

Since the range that the space blockade device can cover is somewhat lower than he expected, in order to maximize its effect, it can only be deployed in the relative center of the solar system. Looking at the planets in the entire solar system, Mercury is undoubtedly the most suitable .

After all, although the technical level involved in the space blockade device is high, it cannot be installed on the sun.

Xu Lei also wanted to see the space folding technology of the Science and Technology Museum, so he planned to arrive at Mercury first to take out the space blocking device from the museum, and then instruct corresponding personnel to install and debug it.

But just when Tianren No. 7 was about to arrive near Mercury, another prompt sounded from the control center.

"Uma applied for a phone call connection, do you agree?"

"Uma?"

When Xu Lei heard that it was Uma, he immediately understood that the other party should be reporting on the situation of the Galaxy Security and Defense Alliance.

When he left for the Andromeda Galaxy, he temporarily handed over the full power of the Galaxy Security and Defense Alliance to Uma to help handle it, and made overall arrangements for the liquidation of the remaining enemy ships in the galaxy.

When he was in the Clay Empire, even if Uma wanted to report the situation to him, she couldn't connect.

Now that he had just returned to the solar system, Uma's call request was sent, indicating that there should be something important to report.

Thinking that the Galaxy Security and Defense Alliance would play a key role in the war against the invasion of Andromeda Galaxy civilization, Xu Lei said to the model without thinking much: "Please take the call, there is no need to save this point. time."

And almost the moment he finished speaking, Uma's familiar figure appeared on the main screen.

"Speaker, you are finally back. I need to report to you on the status of the Galaxy Security Alliance during this period."

"Is it related to the remaining enemy ships in the galaxy?" After hearing what Uma said, Xu Lei subconsciously asked a question based on his own guess.

Uma was startled at first, then nodded and replied: "Yes, Speaker, with the joint efforts of the alliance member civilizations and the alliance patrol fleet, the remaining legion warships of the Clay Empire have been destroyed."
