Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones.

Chapter 236: Long-Distance Communication
In addition to the huge improvements in the four most important aspects of energy, propulsion, defense, and weapons, Li Qingsong saw that the grand unified formula also heralded technological leaps in more areas.

For example, the performance improvement of quantum computers.

Also based on a deeper understanding of the operating principles of the microscopic world, Li Qingsong knew that he would be able to create a quantum computer with performance ten or a hundred times higher than the current one in the future.

With such a huge computing power, to what extent will the performance of various artificial intelligences, such as Wukong, Shengong, Nuwa, Jade Emperor, Shennong, etc., leap?
To what extent will our own unmanned combat capabilities, industrial strength, and scientific and technological research and development capabilities leap?
In addition, the grand unified formula also foreshadows another thing that is extremely important.

Long-distance communication.

No delay, real-time long-distance communication!

Once the long-distance communication technology is mastered, even if the distance between Li Qingsong and another base is as high as 1000 billion kilometers, real-time communication without any delay can be achieved!

If conventional electromagnetic wave communication is used, the round-trip communication delay will be as high as about 1000 days over a distance of 7.7 billion kilometers, making remote control construction basically unfeasible.

I sent a message, but it takes 7.7 days to receive a response. How can I control it?

Even with a highly intelligent AI, construction with a delay of up to 7.7 days will face major obstacles and result in extremely low efficiency.

Now, the mastery of the grand unified formula has allowed Li Qingsong to understand the microscopic phenomenon of "quantum entanglement" more fundamentally, and further indicates the ability to use this phenomenon to master long-distance communication technology.

More importantly, this also means that the consciousness connection between Li Qingsong and his clone will most likely no longer be delayed due to the emergence of long-distance communication technology.

"If I could implant a neural chip in each clone's brain, and have the neural chip interact with the clone's brain, and then use ultra-long-distance communication technology to transmit information between the neural chips, wouldn't that mean that even if I were hundreds of billions of kilometers away, I could still maintain a real-time consciousness connection with the clone's brain?"

Of course, Li Qingsong has not yet mastered the appropriate neural chips and long-distance communication technology, he has only figured out the theory.

To truly achieve this, a large amount of research resources will be required.

But at least, at this moment, Li Qingsong no longer faces any basic theoretical obstacles in mastering these two technologies.

As long as we continue research, it is highly likely that we will master these two technologies in the future.

Connecting with the clone's consciousness without delay!

Just thinking about it made Li Qingsong feel excited.

In the past, because the communication speed between himself and the clone was only the speed of light, there would be a huge communication delay if they were a little further away. Li Qingsong had no idea how much trouble he had to worry about, how many compromises he had to make, and how much efficiency he had sacrificed.

Even Li Qingsong's original consciousness had to frequently shuttle between clones located in different places. He would stay in the place where the construction was more important, sacrificing the construction efficiency in other places to ensure the advancement of important construction projects.

Not only is it extremely troublesome, but efficiency is also greatly affected.

Now, Li Qingsong finally sees hope of getting out of this situation.

In addition, the grand unified formula also heralds a huge leap in materials science.

This still stems from the manipulation of the strong nuclear force. Li Qingsong will likely be able to create ultra-strong materials that go beyond the concept of "alloys" and ordinary elements.

They may no longer be called elements because they may no longer even have an atomic structure. Their overall structure is similar to a gluon plasma, dominated by the strong nuclear force.

They may be able to withstand temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees Celsius, face impacts that are so violent that they are beyond imagination without any damage or cracks, may be able to withstand the corrosion of various chemicals, such as strong acids and alkalis, without any changes, and so on.

The imagination space that this material can provide is so huge that it simply foreshadows a new world that Li Qingsong has never seen before.

Truly feeling the power of strong nuclear civilization and the huge improvement compared to electro-weak civilization, even with Li Qingsong's state of mind, he couldn't help but swear at this moment.

"Damn it, I was wondering why that omnic Scourge attacked me like a special forces soldier attacking a primitive person, leaving me with almost no chance of fighting back...

Their energy supply is more abundant than mine, their mobility is higher than mine, their defense is higher than mine, and even their conventional weapons use 'ultra-micro-nuclear bombs', while I use ordinary projectiles. In this situation, I will fight them head-on."

Li Qingsong felt more and more fortunate.

Before, I had planned everything out, put in a lot of effort, and with the right time, place, people and various factors all coming together, I was able to barely force back the Robot Scourge Fleet. I thought this result was as it should be, but now it seems that there was too much luck involved.

There is no way. The enemy is too powerful. If there is a slight accident in any link, the situation may not be what it is today.

Fortunately, within the three hundred years I managed to secure, I was able to truly complete the transformation from an electro-weak civilization to a strong nuclear civilization...

Although Li Qingsong is currently unable to create any powerful nuclear-level technological creations, at least at this moment, Li Qingsong can understand the operating principles of the various incredible facilities of the Intelligent Scourge Fleet, and it is no longer like seeing a miracle as before.

At this moment, Li Qingsong felt an urge in his heart, that is, to launch a series of follow-up research based on the grand unified formula in this star system at all costs, and truly transform the breakthrough in basic physics into industrial strength and war potential.

Those technological creations were like a feast before a beggar, emitting an attraction so tempting that it was almost irresistible, making Li Qingsong eager to pounce on them.

As long as I continue my research, I too will be able to master those numerous advanced technological artifacts. I can become as powerful as the Omnic Scourge Fleet, or even more powerful. I will no longer have to wander around, constantly fleeing through space, living in fear of my own future...

However, Li Qingsong forcibly suppressed this impulse.

Now is not the time to research technology.

At this moment, 200 years have passed since the robotic Scourge Fleet was forced to retreat.

In another 100 years at most, the robotic Scourge Fleet will make a comeback.

There is only 100 years left. No matter how you look at it, it is impossible for Li Qingsong to complete the tasks from technology research and development to the construction of a huge fleet.

The only feasible way is to escape again, carry enough supplies again, and achieve subsequent technological breakthroughs during space travel!
