I bring technology to my hometown to get rich

Chapter 628: The Overlord of the Center of the Milky Way - The Cortez Empire
In the central area of ​​the Milky Way, the three space battleships of the scientific expedition team have just completed a warp flight.

After arriving at the central region of the Milky Way, the scientific expedition team stopped traveling continuously and began to conduct detailed scientific investigations on the situation in the entire central region of the Milky Way.

There are two key points in the investigation.

One is to evaluate the distribution of cosmic matter in the entire Milky Way, so as to accurately estimate the number and distribution of stars in the Milky Way.

The second is to examine the number of planets with life in the habitable zone in the central region of the Milky Way and the development of civilization, so as to evaluate the overall development of civilization in the Milky Way.

Both of these points are very important, and are also the main tasks for this scientific expedition team to come to the central region of the Milky Way with great effort.

On the Huangshan space battleship, Jiang Fan was discussing the development of civilization in the Milky Way with many scientists.

"According to the data we have obtained, the cosmic matter in the center of the Milky Way is much denser than the area where the Orion arm of the solar system is located, and the density of stars is much greater."

"In addition, the number of life-bearing planets is also much greater. Many galaxies even have two or three life-bearing planets, which is very rare in the Orion Arm."

"But so far, we have not discovered any interstellar civilization that has mastered warp technology. However, the overall development of civilization in the central region of the Milky Way is better than that in our Orion Arm."

"The number of Level 2 civilizations that have left their home planet but have not yet left their home galaxy is far greater than that in the Orion Arm, and the probability is also greater."

Some scientists have listed detailed data for analysis.

"Based on our research on many galaxies in the center of the Milky Way, we found that the lifespan of stars in the center of the Milky Way is generally longer than that of stars in the spiral arms of the Milky Way. This shows that in the formation process of the Milky Way, the central region was formed first, followed by the spiral arms of the Milky Way."

"At the same time, we are studying the history of a large number of civilizations in the center of the Milky Way. These civilizations in the center of the Milky Way generally have a long history."

"Basically, they can be traced back to tens of thousands of years ago, and some even have clear records of more than 100,000 years of history!"

"This is also longer than the history of many civilizations in the Orion Arm."

Scholars who study interstellar civilization also spoke up.

"It's just a little strange that we have already penetrated thousands of light years into the center of the Milky Way, but we have not yet discovered an interstellar civilization that has mastered warp drive technology. All civilizations are level 1 or level 2."

Jiang Fan thought for a while and said, "This is actually very easy to explain. The warp engine technology is obviously the key technology for a Level 2 civilization to break through to a Level 3 civilization. If it develops smoothly, like us, it will break through very quickly. If it does not develop smoothly, it may take hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years to break through this technology."

“Technological breakthroughs are not always smooth sailing. Sometimes, if there is a breakthrough, everything will go smoothly. Sometimes, if there is no breakthrough, it will be stuck there forever.”

"A technology like the warp drive is a systematic and comprehensive technology. First of all, we need to make breakthroughs in controlled nuclear fusion technology and anti-gravity technology. Secondly, we need to have a sufficient understanding of space."

"Another thing to look at is the degree of emphasis placed on science and technology. I have found that many civilizations no longer attach importance to science and technology after they have developed. They are no longer able to allocate funds, manpower, and material resources to scientific and technological breakthroughs."

"Like the cyber civilization we encountered recently, the entire civilization is highly controlled by capital. Capital has the final say in everything, and capital is trying its best to maintain its own status, interests and wealth, which has led to many things that restrict the progress of science and technology and civilization."

"For example, they blocked education. Only the elites in the upper class could receive a good and scientific education. As for the lower class people, they were indoctrinated with the concept of happy education, which made them completely wasteful. After they became adults, they couldn't even calculate basic scores."

"This phenomenon not only occurs in this cyber civilization, but also on Blue Star. It's just that it's more direct and more naked in this cyber civilization."

“Through the high cost of education, the world is divided starting with education.”

"But the number of elites is still small after all, and they basically have extremely high social status and a lot of social wealth. They are more interested in enjoying life and have no interest in boring things like studying science and technology."

"And the people at the bottom practiced happy education. As a result, the technology of this cyber civilization has stagnated for hundreds of years. There has been no progress at all, and it has even begun to regress. Many technologies are no longer understood by anyone."

After hearing Jiang Fan's words, everyone couldn't help but nod their heads.

The cyber civilization we encountered last time left a very deep impression on everyone.

This cyber civilization is a civilization that is completely controlled by capital. Everything is controlled and monopolized by capital, but they claim to be the freest civilization.

It is so free that ordinary people can even legally buy and sell their own spare parts, so free that all rules and restrictions are lifted, and so free that a person can completely immerse himself in anything he wants.

Of course, the premise of all this is that you have money.

If you have money you can do anything, but if you don’t have money, then I’m sorry, you can’t move an inch and even eating will be a problem. No one will care about your life or death because that is your freedom.

In a world like cyber civilization, everyone, of course, referring to the lower class people, has been instilled with the ideas and concepts of "freedom" and "enjoyment", so happy education is right, and the opposite is wrong.

The elite class at the top is completely separated from the lower class, and they are two completely different worlds.

The entire civilization does not see a glimmer of hope and future. For such a civilization, there is no hope of technological development or breakthroughs.

"The phenomenon of cyber civilization is not an isolated case. There are many civilizations in the universe that will experience similar phenomena when their technology develops to a certain level. These phenomena have seriously hindered the development of civilization and technology."

"This phenomenon is not limited to developed civilizations. In fact, if you carefully study the history of various civilizations, you will find that the development and progress of science and technology is often difficult. Even in feudal society, when there are signs of technological development, they will be restricted."

"Like in ancient times, we were completely controlled by Confucianism. Under the guidance of Confucianism, technology was considered to be a strange and shady skill, and was considered to be third-rate and not presentable. The mainstream thought was 'everything is inferior except for reading', but reading was about the Four Books and Five Classics. Countless talented people in all dynasties spent their whole lives studying these things, but the things they studied did not help much in promoting social progress and improving productivity."

"This is a typical manifestation of a serious obstacle to the development of science and technology. This phenomenon has never disappeared and has always existed!"

"This cyber civilization is just a typical example."

"That's right. The reason why we were able to quickly leave our home planet and our home star system is that there are super technology companies like Feiyun Technology that value technology and are willing to invest huge amounts of money in it."

"When we were researching the warp engine, the amount of money required was enormous. The first warp engine cost tens of trillions to build, and it takes 20 trillion to build one warp engine."

"You have to know that this was 20 trillion rabbit gold a few years ago, not the 20 trillion rabbit gold now."

"To be honest, only a super technology company like Feiyun Technology can afford such a huge investment. It is impossible for other companies to do so. Even the national team may not be able to come up with such a huge amount of funds to research this warp engine."

"It can be obtained, but the problem is that no one dares to sign it. If it succeeds, it's fine, but if it fails, who can bear the responsibility?"

"We are also lucky. We just happen to have a super technology company like Feiyun Technology and a boss who is willing to invest in it. Otherwise, according to normal technological development, we would be lucky to be able to leave our home planet this century. It is unknown when we can leave our home galaxy."

"Yes, otherwise, given the speed at which our technology is developing, we may not be able to leave our home galaxy in a few hundred years."

Everyone kept discussing and came to the conclusion that it was fortunate that there was Feiyun Technology and a generous boss like Liu Fei, otherwise everyone would still be playing in the mud on their home planet.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

Just when everyone was discussing enthusiastically, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded on the battleship.

"what happened?"

Jiang Fan asked quickly.

Generally speaking, the alarm will only sound when a spacecraft encounters a major problem or is attacked by the enemy.

"There are warp spaceships, there are warp spaceships!"

"An alien civilization's warp-speed spaceship!"

The men under his command said hurriedly.

"An alien civilization's warp-speed spacecraft?"

Jiang Fan immediately became alert upon hearing this, and quickly gave the order: "The 1st to 20th fighter formations take off immediately, the energy cannons begin to charge, and the electromagnetic cannons lock onto the target!"

"Yes!"

"Contact Taishan and Lushan immediately!"

"Send relevant information back to the solar system and request instructions!"

As Jiang Fan issued one order after another, soon, the hatches on the "Huangshan" opened, and one after another of the space fighters, like hornets swarming out of their nests, quickly formed a huge defense matrix in the surrounding void, ready to fight at any time.

"Jiang Fan, I'm Ji Xingchen!" "Meeting in the virtual world!"

Soon, in the virtual world, Ji Xingchen, Li Yunfan and other main leaders of the scientific expedition team gathered in the virtual world and began to urgently discuss countermeasures.

Just now I was thinking that I had not encountered any alien civilization that mastered warp technology, but now an alien civilization's warp spacecraft has appeared.

"It can be confirmed that these two spaceships are warp spaceships."

"They arrived just a few minutes later than us. Is this a coincidence, or are they chasing us? We must find out right away."

"If it's just a coincidence, we can rest assured. But if they are deliberately chasing us, then we have to be very careful."

"Second, immediately analyze the technological capabilities of these two spacecraft to see if they can pose a threat to us."

"Third, contact the solar system and ask for instructions on whether we should make contact with them."

Ji Xingchen didn't say a word, because now was not the time to waste time talking nonsense. Any slight mistake in any decision could lead to the death of all the people on the three spaceships.

Everyone on the three space battleships became busy rapidly, and scientists quickly analyzed the opponent's technological strength and whether it would pose a threat to themselves based on the opponent's situation.

To be honest, this time, everyone was very nervous, because they encountered a powerful civilization that had mastered the warp engine technology, rather than a level 2 or level 1 civilization.

This also means that the other party can pose a fatal threat to you.

While everyone was meeting to discuss response strategies, the other party had already taken the initiative to send a message.

"Immediately find a way to decipher the other party's message!"

"Yes!"

Ji Xingchen looked towards the void where the other party's spaceship was.

The distance between the two sides is not too far, only less than 1000 million kilometers. At this distance, the other party's spacecraft can be seen clearly using a telescope.

"They don't seem to be spaceships from our Cortez Empire?"

More than 1000 million kilometers away in the void, two spaceships from the Cortez Empire soon discovered the unusual situation.

After I sent out the signal, the other party did not reply to me immediately, which was obviously abnormal.

The Cortez Empire is the overlord in the central region of the Milky Way. It currently occupies more than one million life-bearing planets and has an extremely vast territory. It also has hundreds of thousands of affiliated level 1 and level 2 civilizations.

Therefore, the people of the Cortez Empire have always been more confident, and are often very proactive when encountering other civilizations.

But that only applies to Level 1 and 2 civilizations that have not mastered warp technology. The three spaceships in front of them are warp spaceships, and they thought they were encountering spaceships from their own Cortez Empire.

"It is indeed not the spaceship of our Cortez Empire. These are photos and images of three spaceships. Our Cortez Empire does not have spaceships or space battleships of this style."

"It turned out to be a warp spaceship from another civilization. Is it a spaceship from the Blue Moon Civilization, or a spaceship from the Empire of Light?"

"Neither. The Blue Moon Civilization and the Bright Empire have already established diplomatic relations with our Cortez Empire. There is no problem for them to communicate in language. This may be a new spaceship that has broken through to the third-level civilization!"

"A new level 3 cosmic civilization?"

On the spacecraft of the Cortez Empire, someone also conducted a quick analysis and soon came to relevant conclusions.

"Send more messages immediately, in all thirty-six major languages, and try to decipher their language as much as possible."

"Yes!"

Obviously, the Cortez Empire is also very experienced in deciphering languages. They know very well that if they want to decipher the other party's language and writing, they must first build on a massive amount of information.

If it is just a few simple sentences, even a god would find it difficult to decipher the other party's language and writing.

"report!"

"We received a large amount of information from the other party, which should be used to assist in language deciphering."

Soon, Ji Xingchen received the relevant information.

"Speed ​​up the decryption immediately!"

"Yes!"

Ji Xingchen looked at the two alien spaceships in the void and became nervous.

This is the first civilization we encountered after leaving our home galaxy that is capable of mastering warp spacecraft.

With more information and content, as well as relevant guidance, the subsequent decryption work will go very smoothly.

Soon, linguists and scientists deciphered each other's language and writing and were able to communicate normally with each other.

At the same time, the solar system base also conveyed the latest orders to contact the other party, but the information of the solar system must not be exposed.

Obviously, we must be sufficiently vigilant and careful in this regard.

Because no one knows how powerful the alien civilization they encounter has become, whether it is aggressive, whether it can allow the existence of other civilizations, etc.

There are too many uncertainties, so we must be cautious and cautious again.

The information that you are from the solar system must never be revealed to anyone, otherwise it may bring a devastating disaster to mankind.

"report!"

"We have analyzed the general situation of the other side."

"Based on the information we have so far, the warp engine used by the other party should be the first generation warp engine."

"Their comprehensive technological strength should be comparable to ours, or even worse than ours."

"Of course, this is just an analysis based on the existing data."

The team of scientists quickly came up with their own analysis results and reports.

"First generation warp drive?"

When Ji Xingchen, Li Yunfan, Jiang Fan and others heard this, they immediately started thinking quickly.

However, there are only two spaceships, and we cannot judge the strength of the civilization behind them. It is normal to use backward spaceships.

Even in an era when virtual machines have become popular, there are still people using old computers.

In an era when anti-gravity aircraft are flying all over the sky, there are still people driving cars. The principle is the same.

We cannot simply infer the overall technological strength of the civilization behind the other side based on the two spaceships.

"This is the relevant content formulated by the negotiation experts at the Solar System Base Camp."

At this time, someone sent over the latest information.

The first sentence is "We are the exploration fleet of the great Chinese civilization!"
