Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 205 The peak of electric weakness!

Li Qingsong has had enough of this life of constantly running around and never being able to focus on developing technology.

The only way to solve this problem is to break through to the strong core level and have the real strength to fight against the intelligent mechanical disaster.

Only with strength can we win peace for ourselves.

But there are no shortcuts on the road of technological development.

Not to mention that he no longer has the technological information seized from the Bluetook civilization to learn from as he did before. Even if he did, his own research and development are equally indispensable.

Again, reverse engineering is useful, but not that useful. Scientific and technological information seized from the outside world is useful, but to truly learn and master it, one still has to rely on repeated experiments, attempts, and research.

This road is destined to be traversed only by following the steps and accumulating research bit by bit.

The key data of a particle impact test, particle behavior that is inconsistent with the model predictions, the energy levels of certain new particles, special phenomena in ultra-high temperature environments, actual manufacturing in the engineering industry, etc., etc., rely on countless accumulations in these many fields to truly achieve a breakthrough in science and technology.

After leaving this star system, Li Qingsong once again devoted himself to scientific and technological research and development.

Compared to the previous phase, Li Qingsong now invested even more scientific research resources. The reason was simple: this time, he had collected more materials, enough to support him in awakening a total of 30 billion clones and devoting them all to scientific research.

Time passed slowly under such circumstances, and in the blink of an eye, another 250 years had passed. Li Qingsong had once again sailed a distance of about 20 light years.

At this moment, the distance from the solar system truly exceeded 100 light years. During this long 100-light-year voyage, Li Qingsong did not find any trace of life.

Not to mention intelligent life, even the lowest forms of life have not been discovered.

Even the birthplace of the Bluetuk civilization was not the Gliese 625 galaxy as Li Qingsong initially thought.

They too had migrated from the depths of the extremely distant starry sky. As for where their true home galaxy was, the history was so long and their civilization had suffered so many disasters that even they themselves couldn't be sure.

This doesn't seem to be a good phenomenon.

With the solar system as the core and a radius of one hundred light years, including the difficult-to-observe red dwarfs and brown dwarfs, the number of stars in this star field is about 20,000.

Although Li Qingsong only sailed in one direction and did not observe and search all the stars in this star field, Li Qingsong's heading was roughly random, and the sample selection could be considered objective and representative.

This is enough to highlight the rarity of life in the universe.

Obviously, the rarer life in the universe, especially intelligent life, is, the more precious intelligent life is, and the stronger the desire of the intelligent machine Scourge to capture it is.

There are so few intelligent lives in this universe. We finally found you, and we're going to let you run away?

Then I will chase you to the ends of the earth and sky to catch you?
Despite his worries, Li Qingsong is still carrying out his seemingly never-ending scientific research work.

At this moment, some clone consciousnesses from the previous docked galaxy connected to Li Qingsong's mind again.

As Li Qingsong expected, the figure of the intelligent machine disaster appeared again.

What made Li Qingsong even more solemn was that this time, from the time he left that galaxy to the appearance of the intelligent mechanical disaster, only 230 years had passed!

The interval in the solar system was about 400 years. In the Altair Galaxy, it was 267 years, and now it is 230 years!
Time was getting shorter and shorter! Especially when he was in the Altair Galaxy, because of the effect of his hydrogen bomb trap, the Omnic Scourge Fleet was delayed by at least 30 years!

So what about next time?

When I stop at a galaxy next time, will the time be shortened to less than 200 years, or even 150 years, or even shorter?
It would take about 13 years to accelerate his fleet. In 150 years, the maximum distance he could travel was less than 13 light years.

For the intelligent machine Scourge Fleet, it only takes about 13 years to cross the distance of 18 light years.

The distance is so short that even if he makes multiple random changes of trajectory during the voyage and relies on the vastness of the starry sky to cover his tracks, the probability of being discovered by the intelligent mechanical disaster fleet will be greatly increased.

"It's like a maggot on the tarsal bone, biting it stubbornly..."

A sneer appeared on Li Qingsong's face, and the murderous intent in his heart became stronger.

This time, upon entering the system, the hydrogen bomb traps laid by Li Qingsong were not activated. The clones watched as the Omnic Scourge Fleet carefully searched all the larger planets and conducted a large-scale screening of asteroids before the main fleet entered the system.

Li Qingsong was not disappointed about this.

This was something that was expected.

The huge intelligent mechanical disaster fleet then launched a new round of large-scale construction on the wreckage of Li Qingsong's factory. It also took only about 30 years to complete the resource collection work, and then set sail again and disappeared into the vast starry sky. It was obvious that it was tracking him again.

Li Qingsong withdrew his gaze and once again invested his support in scientific research.

In this never-ending research day after day, more than 500 years have quietly passed.

Li Qingsong gradually realized that his technological development seemed to have encountered a bottleneck.

In applied physics, the theory hasn't been updated for a long time. Based on the current theoretical system, the performance of various technological creations has reached its limits.

The development of science and technology follows this principle: first basic physics, then applied physics, and then various scientific and technological creations.

Basic physics determines the upper limit of technology.

Just like in the Earth era, only with the development of the basic physics theory of relativity could atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs be created.

Now, Li Qingsong's applied physics and technological creations have developed to the upper limit of existing basic physics theories.

And the development of basic physics theory...has encountered a bottleneck.

Li Qingsong did not feel depressed at all about this situation, but was instead full of excitement.

This is not a bad thing, it is a very good thing, it is a good thing!
Because it means that he has mastered all the scientific and technological theories of the electroweak stage, and has truly touched the strong nuclear civilization and the threshold of unified strong nuclear force.

At this stage, I can truly be called a pinnacle electroweak civilization. As long as I break through this bottleneck, I can be promoted to a strong nuclear civilization!
