Perhaps because of his successful advancement to a Level 3 civilization, Lü Yongchang felt a little less pressure.
I slept exceptionally well that night.
"...Professor, Professor!"
In his sleep, Lü Yongchang heard Zero's voice calling: "The data processing is complete."
Lu Yongchang, who was still a little dazed, suddenly opened his eyes the moment he heard those words.
He rubbed his cheeks vigorously to shake off the lingering sleepiness, then unplugged the electromagnetic suction device on his seat: "Okay, I'm coming right now!"
...
Because the experiment was a great success, the atmosphere in Laboratory One was very relaxed.
Almost every researcher had a happy smile on their face.
"professor."
Hearing footsteps behind him, Cao Liangcai quickly turned around, his face beaming with a smile: "How was your rest?"
Lü Yongchang naturally smiled and nodded: "That's right."
"Thanks to this awakening, I have new ideas about shield technology."
Upon hearing this, the researchers around him stopped what they were doing and looked at him with curiosity.
"We'll talk about it after the shield generation unit's collaborative algorithm is completed."
Lu Yongchang smiled and pointed to the holographic projection next to him: "No matter how good the idea is, it cannot be realized by relying on a single shield generation unit."
...
Zero made the greatest contribution to the research on the collaborative algorithm for shield generation units.
It can be said that it accomplished at least 90% of the work single-handedly!
Looking at the massive magnetic field shield inside the isolation room, generated by the coordinated efforts of five shield generation units, Cao Liangcai couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Professor, I often feel that zero is not a technology that humanity should master."
Lu Yongchang's heart skipped a beat, but he calmly asked in return, "Why do you say that?"
"Look," Cao Liangcai gestured toward the holographic projection that was responsible for monitoring the status of the shield generation unit, "It's not just research; the rapid development of the entire human fleet is almost entirely achieved through zero."
"Without zero, I estimate we wouldn't even be able to escape Earth."
Lü Yongchang sighed softly to himself.
No need to estimate.
That's the truth.
Without zero, humanity could never have survived that disaster.
Although he thought that way, he still smiled and patted Cao Liangcai on the shoulder: "What nonsense are you thinking?"
"Don't forget, I typed out Zero's core code line by line on my computer."
Cao Liangcai chuckled and scratched his head, trying to hide his embarrassment.
"Alright, stop lamenting about this." Lü Yongchang subtly changed the subject. "The next step, the Precision Shield technology, is where Zero will truly unleash its power."
"Precision Shield Technology?"
As expected, Cao Liangcai and Tao Yuda's attention was quickly drawn to it: "What does this mean? Is it different from the magnetic field shield of the Lator civilization?"
...
Precision Shield Technology.
This is a shield solution that Lü Yongchang came up with during the process of overclocking his brain.
Compared to the magnetic field shields that cover the entire ship like those of the Lator civilization, the precision magnetic field shields have higher endurance and lower energy consumption.
The so-called Precision Shield Technology refers to accurately determining the type of attack just moments before it is attacked, and then generating a corresponding magnetic field shield accordingly.
Simply put...
For example, facing an attack from a high-energy ion beam.
The Lator civilization's warships reacted by activating their entire magnetic field shields and using the powerful magnetic field to deflect ion beams in order to avoid damage.
During engagements with human fleets, this technology revealed its unique drawbacks.
The magnetic field shield consumes a great deal of energy, which is wasted in areas where it is not attacked.
In fact, the overall strength of the shield was significantly reduced because it had to support the magnetic field shield that covered the entire ship.
This is why, when faced with concentrated fire from the human fleet, the secondary flagship's magnetic shield generation unit will quickly become overloaded.
The precision magnetic field shield proposed by Lü Yongchang is vastly different from the former.
First, Zero needs to conduct a precise analysis of the impending attack.
Weapon type, attack power, target, area of effect...
Since magnetic field shields can only block "low-speed" weapons such as high-energy ion beams, plasma weapons, and electromagnetic cannons, it is entirely feasible to analyze the attack type in advance.
After comprehensive analysis, Zero can control the magnetic field shield generation unit in the impact area to generate a perfectly positioned shield.
Both the shield strength and the shield area can be controlled to be slightly higher than the attack range!
Undoubtedly, this shield generation method significantly reduces energy consumption while greatly enhancing shield strength!
...
"hiss……"
After hearing Lü Yongchang's explanation, Cao Liangcai couldn't help but gasp.
"Professor, are you sure that Zero's current computing power can support a task of this magnitude?"
Tao Yuda, who was standing to the side, nodded with a worried look in his eyes.
Unlike Lü Yongchang, the two were not very optimistic about this technology.
The battlefield is ever-changing, and to accurately control every attack requires an extremely high level of computing power, which is an exaggeration!
In response to Cao Liangcai and Tao Yuda's questions, Lü Yongchang chuckled and said, "I just checked Mo Zeyang's research progress."
"If nothing unexpected happens, a new generation of optical quantum computers will be unveiled."
"At that time, the computing power of zero will increase dramatically."
"Although the exact values are still unclear, this level of computation should not be difficult for zero."
Any further questions?
Cao Liangcai and Tao Yuda exchanged a glance (oO vs Oo).
"No, no," Cao Liangcai shook his head repeatedly. "Professor, is this the new idea you mentioned a few days ago?"
"Yes, but not entirely."
Lu Yongchang's answer left the two of them puzzled once again.
“Plasma shield,” Lü Yongchang said, reaching out to pull over a holographic projection.
"You can think of it as an enhanced version of the magnetic field shield."
"It has a stronger interception effect against kinetic weapons."
As Lü Yongchang spoke, a simulation of the [Golden Crow] battleship appeared on the holographic screen.
A semi-transparent membrane appeared around the [Golden Crow] battleship.
The film completely envelops the Golden Crow.
It's not hard to guess that this is the magnetic field shield they just finished researching.
“Plasma shields can only be implemented when the magnetic field shield is operating at full power,” Lü Yongchang said in a deep voice. “In a sense, it is a life-saving measure.”
"When attacked by a large number of kinetic weapons, the ship actively releases high-temperature plasma."
"By controlling the magnetic field shield generation unit, the high-temperature plasma is made to move at high speed around the ship under the constraint of the magnetic field."
"Using flowing plasma to destroy and block incoming kinetic weapons."
