The analysis of the curvature engine is completed the fastest.
After all, this thing also exists on Earth. Even if the technical routes are different, they ultimately lead to the same goal.
So as the autonomous machinery cut a curvature engine into pieces, the analysis report was quickly obtained.
Although it is not known which civilization made this curvature engine, at least the technology for making the curvature engine is no better than the earth, and is even much weaker than the current earth.
Of course, the autonomous machinery has also checked out that there are parts of this curvature engine that have been deliberately castrated. Obviously, the performance has been reduced due to external sales.
But according to the technical route of this curvature engine, making up for the castrated part is still much slower than the speed that the earth's curvature engine can achieve.
The ultimate speed that the curvature engine on Earth can reach is ten times the speed of light.
And after this curvature engine makes up for the castration part, the ultimate speed is only six times the speed of light.
The reason is that at the beginning of the design of this curvature engine, it had too many unnecessary parts and was not concise enough. Many of the designs were completely unnecessary.
So this curvature engine is even slightly larger than the earth's curvature engine, although not much larger.
But the speed is much lower.
To put it bluntly, the level of civilization and technology is still not good enough.
So Lin Xu became more and more curious. How did the people on earth ten thousand years ago design and develop such a simple and beautiful thing just after they left the earth and in the five hundred years before heading to Proxima Centauri, when a large number of humans were still dormant? The warp engine?
You must know that according to the records of the Republic of Mali, the advanced civilization that sells their curvature engines has been using this type of curvature engine for tens of thousands of years. Although the advanced civilization has also modified the curvature engine, there has never been any major breakthrough.
Did their technology reach a certain limit and then stagnate?
As for Mali civilization, it is worse than advanced civilization. It has not developed a curvature engine for tens of thousands of years.
Is this thing so high-tech?
Lin Xu was not a scientist, so he didn't know much about the value of this thing.
But now we see that so many civilizations in the universe are trapped in curvature engines, and even those who can develop curvature engines are considered advanced civilizations.
With this comparison, Lin Xu felt more and more that the people on Earth were simply awesome.
It’s so outrageous.
Are you the children of destiny?
Listening to Taiyin's investigation report on the alien curvature engine, Lin Xu thought to himself.
Lin Xu suddenly remembered a saying he had heard before, called the Great Filter of the Universe.
It refers to some key nodes that have been ignored in the development of civilization. If intelligent life does not cross them, the development of civilization will stagnate.
For example, controllable nuclear fusion is a very critical node. Only by mastering controllable nuclear fusion can civilization truly get rid of its dependence on the energy of the mother star and survive independently of the mother star, whether it is to move to other planets or embark on a long voyage in a spaceship. journey.
The curvature engine is likely to be the next key node. Only by mastering the technology of curvature navigation can civilization truly travel freely in the star space, instead of having to fly hundreds or thousands of years across a few light-years.
If civilization cannot cross these nodes, it can only stagnate. No matter how rich and colorful the application methods of existing science and technology are developed, the entire civilization will seem to be flourishing and simmering, but it still cannot change the fact that this civilization has essentially stagnated. The fact remains.
Just like the earth in the early 21st century, electromagnetic technology has been developed to a certain extreme. Small mobile phones can achieve many things that seemed extremely science fiction hundreds of years ago.
The entire civilization seems to be developing science very rapidly. A large number of new technologies are born every day. Mobile phones are becoming thinner and thinner, with 3G, 4G and 5G. Information transmission speeds are getting faster and faster. Treatments for various human diseases have also been found.
But this still does not change the fact that humans in the early 21st century are unable to control controllable nuclear fusion technology and are still firmly trapped on the earth.
It also cannot change the fact that the limit of human life span is still within one hundred years.
Technology seems to be constantly developing, but in fact it is only development at the application level, and there is no essential improvement.
What is essential improvement? The invention of the steam engine, the invention of the electric motor, and the invention of the computer are the essence of civilization.
Compared with the curvature engine, the observation of chaotic energy is more cautious.
But soon, Yinghuo, who was in charge of observing the chaotic energy, gave Lin Xu a surprise.
"Master, the preliminary test of the chaotic energy has been completed, and the tested target can be recorded." Yinghuo's mechanical voice should not have any emotion, but Lin Xu seemed to hear confusion in it.
"Can it be recorded? Are those businessmen really cheating?" This was Lin Xu's first reaction.
"The test was conducted simultaneously using our observation equipment and the observation equipment of the Republic of Mali. We successfully observed the target and the video image was clearly visible. However, the observation equipment of the Republic of Mali only recorded garbled characters, and the video also only had garbled characters. "
"What do you mean?" Lin Xu was a little confused.
"Following up, I found an evil-doing alien from the caravan and experimented with it, and exposed him to the chaotic energy. After he saw the chaotic energy, he immediately started to go crazy, and now he is completely crazy."
"So, the chaotic energy is real? Then why can our observation equipment record it?" Lin Xu asked puzzledly.
"Master, you'd better take a look at the image data we recorded for yourself." Yinghuo replied.
Although I don’t understand why the unobservable chaotic energy has been observed.
However, it was impossible for Yinghuo to let Lin Xu directly touch something like Chaos Yuaneng that was suspected of being a dangerous item, but after watching the video, it was still no problem.
Just like that, Lin Xu saw the video transferred by Yinghuo.
So Lin Xu saw the unit of Chaos Energy that was tightly sealed in a secret room in the holographic image in front of him.
A perfectly diamond-shaped object about the size of a sunflower seed.
The interior of the rhombus-shaped object seemed to be filled with chaos, attracting everything around it all the time.
Lin Xu looked at the rhombus-shaped object the size of a sunflower seed, and then turned to look at the corner of the table next to him. There were three perfect rhombus-shaped objects the size of bottle caps that looked ordinary and scattered there.
Lin Xu stretched out his hand and grabbed one, tossing it randomly in his hand twice as he usually did when playing with it.
"Yinghuo, how many units do you think there are here?"
"One hundred units." Yinghuo calculated the answer based on the size of the two in the blink of an eye.
"Wori." Lin Xu expressed his strongest emotion.
