Chapter 1459 Main Technology Tree Route

Today, like other distinctive technological civilizations, human scientists are also troubled by the follow-up research on their distinctive technologies.

The defining characteristic of human civilization's technology is undoubtedly "string picking," which is why various civilizations refer to human civilization as "string pickers." The string picking operation is clearly based on a third-person observation mode.

Based on this, brilliant scientists of human civilization believe that we should continue to delve into the microscopic realm, continue to leverage the advantages of third-person observation, continue to explore the various structures of the six-dimensional microscopic world, grasp the related laws, and then develop a more powerful attack method than quantum exile.

As for the striking method, that depends on what kind of string-plucking method can be found.

It could be an evolved version of quantum exile, or it could be another method of attack. After all, quantum exile is merely a special application of the unique technological research path of human civilization, not the entirety of this unique technological route.

In short: keep plucking the strings, pluck them in various ways, create different cosmic notes, and turn them into your own unique weapon.

As for its main development path, the scientific community has held countless meetings, which basically summarize the phased scientific research results and then select the main technological development direction of human civilization.

Because it concerns the direction of the civilization's main technology tree, Yue Yuan has participated in every session, and other scientific teams and genius scientists have never been absent either.

However, in addition to the normal scientific and technological discussions, this time there was an additional topic: related life sciences.

Human civilization is already a cosmic-level civilization, but its technological development is obviously not comparable to that of established cosmic-level civilizations. In the field of life sciences alone, there are still countless branches of the technology tree that human scientists need to explore.

For example, the choice of future development path for life sciences is still a choice we've made before. It's just that as civilization levels rise, more new unknowns are discovered, and many things that were previously thought to be correct become conditionally correct, just like classical mechanics.

This is the law of scientific development.

The same applies to life sciences. Many life science scientists have revived the previously stalled quantum route. They believe that as human civilization becomes a cosmic-level civilization, with the passage of time and the accumulation of technology and knowledge in various aspects, and as the foundation becomes deeper, full quantumization will become a feasible option.

Of course, this is only one of the topics of the conference. Regarding life sciences, what everyone is most concerned about at this stage is still the technology tree of life technology.

The universe is simply too vast. Even if we become a Type 7 civilization, facing a universe measured in billions of light-years, humanity's current lifespan of a million years would still be insufficient.

Therefore, in the field of life science research, anti-entropy technology absolutely cannot stop.

That said, in order to get the interstellar government to prioritize life sciences and even make it a major technological direction for research, these life science scientists even described the prospects of anti-entropy technology to everyone at the conference.

According to them, anti-entropy technology not only enables individual human life to undergo a transformation and achieve immortality, but it is also an extremely rare technological path. Civilizations that specialize in this technological path, when developed to its extreme, can definitely use anti-entropy as a weapon.

This group of life scientists calls the ultimate weapon of anti-entropy technology the entropy increase strike.

Anyway, bragging doesn't cost money. These scientists even said that if we keep digging deeper along this technological path, we might not only be able to develop entropy-increasing weapons, but also unlock another technological tree—temperature!
Their various hypotheses sparked heated discussions among other scientists in the field. "Do you think it's possible that we can create all sorts of rule-based attacks by plucking strings? After all, from the perspective of string theory, string vibration is the underlying color of the universe, and the vibrations of different strings and combinations of strings constitute everything in the universe." As the conference entered the discussion phase, some physicists couldn't help but start a discussion with their colleagues next to them.

A scientist standing nearby chimed in, "You mean you want to manipulate a certain combination of strings to the point that the entropy of the entire galaxy increases instantly?"

"That's right!"

"It's possible, but we estimate that, like those life scientists said, we'll focus on the anti-entropy technology route in the future, or maybe the temperature route."

The physicist who started the topic nodded secretly: "Hmm, if that's the case, maybe we can also use string manipulation to launch a 'uniform spin attack' like the electronic warships of yesteryear, and perhaps even achieve a dimensional reduction effect or alter some kind of particle mechanism."

Another scientist next to him joined the discussion with great interest.

This man, Shen Yuhua, is a physicist dedicated to the study of electromagnetic force. Following up on the topic discussed by the two scientists, he said, "Yes, string plucking is indeed like a general principle. In theory, we can do it this way, but in practice, it's not so easy. For example, if we want to launch a 'uniform spin' attack, based on the technological path of our human civilization, in addition to knowing how to pluck strings, we also need to find all the mechanisms related to 'uniform spin' attacks. That's a completely rare technological path."

"So, after going around in circles, the problem has come full circle. We need to concentrate our efforts in one direction first," the scientist who started the discussion said, shrugging.

Shen Yuhua nodded and said, "That's inevitable. After reaching the level of a cosmic civilization, we found that we need to face more unknowns, and the branches of technology derived from these unknowns are vast and numerous. We really can't cover everything in a short period of time."

After a pause, Shen Yuhua recalled the situation of other civilizations and continued, "I remember that the Divine Ju civilization has clearly stated that it will make gravity technology its main focus. They are determined to become a war-oriented civilization with powerful military force!"

"As far as I know, the Awakener Civilization and the Daya Civilization are pursuing the spiritual and soul technology route, the Falcon Civilization has chosen to continue exploring dark matter and dark energy, and even the Kabuto Civilization has determined its main direction of attack. They have chosen the weak interaction force. They are not willing to fall behind!"

"As for our human civilization, I think we should determine that as soon as possible, so that the forces can be directed in one direction. In my opinion, the best direction is the electromagnetic force."

Shen Yuhua's research field is electromagnetism, and he naturally hopes that human civilization will make electromagnetism its primary focus. Furthermore, it is one of the four fundamental forces, and according to the Star Guardians, those who can push these four paths to their limits will essentially become powerful, war-oriented civilizations.

However, other scientists disagreed. The one who had initiated the discussion immediately shook his head, saying, "Hey, what electromagnetic force? Our expertise lies in the microscopic higher dimensions. In my opinion, we should focus on the microscopic higher dimensions of dimensional technology. Our theories already support our entry into the microscopic higher dimensions; we should continue to develop this path, pushing it to its limits, and ultimately achieving microscopic control."

Another scientist couldn't help but say, "That's just wishful thinking. I think we should revive mind imprinting technology."

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone else chimed in, "Tsk, speaking of the four fundamental forces, I think the strong interaction is the best."

For a time, the hall was filled with discussions, with all sorts of opinions.
