Chapter 264 The Virtual World
"Marshal Say, thank you very much for your support, otherwise I really wouldn't have the confidence to turn the table with the Star Federation." After the Star Federation President was forced to agree to Cheng Xin's research on light speed spacecraft, she breathed a sigh of relief.

It is not easy to openly break the skin with a behemoth like the Star Alliance, and often only a little pressure is needed, and people may give up.

Just like in the original book, when Cheng Xin asked Vader to surrender, to a large extent, Vader was also fighting against a behemoth, and Cheng Xin was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

"As I said before, I will continue to study the curvature spacecraft, and thank you for resisting the pressure of the Star Alliance." Say said.

"Those idiots are hopeless, they actually expect Trisolarans not to study light speed spaceships."

"By the way, according to the Earth's calendar, today is June 6, which is Independence Day. Although there is no country anymore, I have prepared a holiday gift for you."

(Philippines Independence Day is June 6)
After Cheng Xin finished speaking, she took out a beautifully packaged box to Say, who opened it and saw a huge helmet with many complicated things on it, as well as a signal probe used to connect to the spinal nerve.

"Portable brain-computer interface, controlled by human brain waves, is equipped with the latest generation of quantum computers, and exchanges information with the neural signals of the cerebral cortex."

"It can be used to download knowledge, manipulate computer equipment, form a complete personal terminal system with a micro-quantum computer implanted in the body, and enter a highly immersive virtual world."

"This is the latest generation. At present, only the technologically advanced Star Ring Republic can manufacture it, and the Star Alliance cannot manufacture it at all. At present, we plan to get rid of the bulky helmet and create a more miniature brain-computer interface."

"Of course, it's not that simple to enter the virtual world, because just inputting neural information into the brain may cause certain confusion, so after entering the virtual world, you must have a special virtual cabin."

However, there is a virtual chamber in the laboratory, so Say lay down in it, and soon filled it with a liquid. According to Cheng Xin, this liquid can provide false information to people's skin.

"By the way, piercing the spine won't directly paralyze it, right?" Say asked worriedly before the machine started.

"Don't worry, it's not directly piercing. That will indeed paralyze people. Our method is to perform surgery on the spine first, implant a quantum computer for reading signals, and create a reading port on the human body."

"Then the signal probe will pass directly through the reading port and connect with the quantum computer inside the spine. To put it simply, the signal probe will not pierce the skin at all."

"You have already undergone relevant operations, and there is a reading port in the spinal column, and there is a matching nerve electrical signal reading device in your spine." Cheng Xin explained.

"Okay." Sai nodded, and then the signal probe on the helmet began to pass through the reading port, connecting with the quantum computer in her spine.

After the virtual cabin and the BCI were activated, Say just wanted to turn it on, and his eyes lit up. Cheng Xin and the others and the virtual cabin in front of him disappeared instantly, replaced by a lush forest.

Then Say was surprised to find that his feet actually stepped on the soil, and the nerve fluid in the virtual cabin seemed to not exist.

Sai tried to touch the helmet on her head again, but she found that the helmet she was wearing just now was gone, and her activities were not restricted by the virtual cabin or other things.

She even found that the clothes on her body had changed, not the ones she was wearing.

Say subconsciously felt a little scary and wanted to exit the virtual world, and then she returned to reality in just a split second.

"It's so real. I just felt the wind blowing over my skin, just like the real world. This virtual world is so realistic." Say was surprised.

"Yes, the fidelity of this virtual world is very high, and there is almost no difference from the real world, even the rules of physics are similar, because all substances in this world are composed of molecules."

"At present, we are still trying to improve the accuracy and simulate atoms in the virtual world, and even the nuclei and electrons inside the atoms. These are not random quantum movements and can be simulated theoretically."

"Of course, this is not the only virtual world. To be exact, humans now have hundreds of virtual worlds with varying degrees of accuracy. What you just entered is the No. 1 virtual world of the Star Ring Academy of Sciences."

"The area of ​​the No. 1 virtual world is 1 square kilometers. In addition to the inorganic matter, the No. 150 virtual world also has [-] kinds of organic matter, including large organisms such as pigs and sheep."

"The purpose of manufacturing it is for scientific research and some huge costly projects. However, the No. 1 virtual world has not been completed yet, and it will not be completed until the atomic nucleus and electrons are simulated."

"Then the amount of computation in this virtual world must be terrifying, right?" Say said in surprise.

"Yes." Cheng Xin nodded and said, "In order to create the No. 1 virtual world, we used 450 super quantum computers, each of which is no less than a skyscraper."

"We were able to manufacture so many giant quantum computers mainly because we had a good relationship with the Star Alliance at the time. They funded it and we built it with technology."

While Cheng Xin was talking, the holographic projection next to her was also displaying these quantum computers, because she was also equipped with a bulky brain-computer interface, and could operate the computer next to her with brain waves.

Each giant quantum computer soars into the sky, more like a tall building than a computer.

"The energy consumption of these things is astonishing. The energy consumption of each giant quantum computer is no less than that of a Star Destroyer, and requires a planetary engine to supply energy."

"If it weren't for the Solar System Fleet and you choosing to support us, the Star Ring Republic would simply not be able to support these giant quantum computers, and this virtual world would not be able to continue to exist."

"It seems that there are quite a few people in the solar system fleet who are willing to follow me." Sai laughed.

"It's more than we expected, but it's not as good as Starlink. Saturn, Neptune, Kuiper Belt, and Jupiter's 12 natural satellites in the main world are controlled by the Starlink Republic."

"And the rest of the parallel universes are controlled by the Star Federation. They have more than ten times more usable resources than us, and their industrial scale is also ten times larger than ours."

"In terms of population, the Star Ring Republic has 207 billion people, while the Star Alliance has 4357 billion people, which means that their number of scientific researchers and senior engineers far exceeds ours."

"In terms of military affairs, we are even more struggling. Regardless of the support of the Trisolaran civilization, the Star Alliance itself has 87 Star Destroyer strike groups, and considering our existence, they will expand their army."

"At the same time, although most of our technologies are more advanced than the Star Alliance, we are behind the Star Alliance in some military technologies and engineering technologies, such as antimatter refining technology and strong interaction materials."
