"Sorry, I'm late."
"There was something wrong with the boson ball experiment we just conducted, so it was delayed for a while."
Tina breathed a sigh of relief and walked into the command room.
Chu Hua asked her to sit down on the sofa first. After throwing the darts in his hand, he sat opposite Tina.
"An accident in a scientific experiment? What's the situation?"
Tina smiled bitterly, "The entire experimental building was blown up. Fortunately, it was in deep space. No one was hurt. It's just a waste of resources."
"Forget it, as long as everything is fine." Chu Hua shook his head and didn't pay much attention.
Boson ball projection experiments are special particles for ships to pass through star gates. Even if there is a technology chain with star gates, the situation in each galaxy is different, and the data still needs to be verified one by one.
It has to be said that the cost of this boson ball projection experiment is not low. It costs more than 1,000 energy coins to complete it once. The Stargate project is really a waste of money.
"In short, we have completed the first phase of the Star Gate. As long as we solve some problems caused by the giant structure, we can officially build the base of the Star Gate."
Tina explained the operating principles and conditions of the Star Gate, which made Chu Hua marvel.
At the beginning, Chu Hua thought that the star gate was similar to the existence principle of artificial wormholes, but as the project progressed, he discovered that this was not the case.
Because, if the star gate is built based on the principle of wormholes, the jumping point will be fixed, and it can only go back and forth between the two galaxies. Although it can move very long distances, it always feels uninteresting.
Furthermore, with current technology, no matter how much the resonance points between stars are squeezed, the high-curvature tentacles forming the wormhole cannot exceed a distance of 10 light-years.
Therefore, there is no need to delve too deeply into artificial wormholes, whether in terms of technology or value.
It is like a draft in a canyon. Humans can also create similar strong winds, but it is not necessary.
"To put it simply, the crossing of the star gate is completed using the resonance point of the galaxy, and the margin can be as far as 200,000 light years."
"Just like ultra-long-distance quantum entanglement communication, the resonance of star gates can allow them to connect to each other, allowing ships to pass through a star gate and complete the magical feat of reaching any star gate."
"And this is also inseparable from the covering film of the boson ball."
A demonstration screen was played by Tina.
This is a completed Daxia star gate with a planned size of 350 kilometers.
Three trapezoidal structures stand in the deep space, with an inverted triangle shape in the center, and energy and strange particles dissipating around them.
After the ship enters the star gate, it is covered with a layer of particles called boson balls. As long as the correct resonance point data is set, the ship wrapped in the boson ball will be resonated to the other end by the star gate, complete. Super long distance jump.
"Of course, it's great that one star gate can connect to countless star gates, but it also has shortcomings."
In Chu Hua's extremely interested eyes, Tina also talked about the pain points of Star Gate.
"The star gate will have a resonance effect all the time, and the energy required for maintenance will be very high. I hope your majesty will be mentally prepared."
"It's great that you can reach any star gate at will, but you also need the consent of the other star gate to complete the final resonance, otherwise the ship will be lost in the subspace."
"In other words, in addition to obtaining the resonance point data of the other party's star gate, we also need to obtain the other party's consent to jump. Regarding this, we will form a new department to complete the communication issue."
“In the end, it’s the cost of construction.”
"A giant building that spans hundreds of kilometers, even if it is a mini version of the Miracle of the Galaxy, consumes extremely staggering resources."
The construction cost list of the Star Gate base site was displayed in front of Chu Hua.
[Estimated construction cost of the Star Gate base: 460,000 energy coins (including a small amount of other resources), 370,000 alloy, 172 days (after bonus)]
"..." Chu Hua's pupils shrank, and he took a breath of air when he saw the cost.
"It's a staggering expense."
Tina on the opposite side laughed and said: "This is the reform of interstellar navigation."
"So, unless it has strategic significance, the average empire will not spend so many resources building a star gate."
Chu Hua also laughed: "I guess everyone would rather the main star explode than have this star gate captured."
This is the cost of building the base of the stargate, and the cost of the remaining framework may not be less than this.
Moreover, unlike ships, giant buildings can be reduced by construction resources. If the bonus of increasing the construction speed or reducing the construction time is not the overall effect, it will also require more time.
Stargate is indeed not something that ordinary empires can afford.
"Okay, I understand the situation of the Star Gate."
"As for the construction plan, I believe you also know the current resource status of the empire, so don't think about it for the time being."
Chu Hua shrugged and expressed his helplessness.
Tina didn't care, "It doesn't matter. After all, even if we build the star gate, there may not be anyone to connect to it, and it will be useless except to waste resources."
"As long as you understand."
"Ha ha."
The two talked for a long time about the Stargate project, and also talked about the existence of the damaged Stargate.
Regarding the Shattered Star Gate, there is only very little news circulating in chat channels or intelligence.
No fool would reveal that there is a repairable star gate in his own territory. The so-called Huai Bi is guilty, and it is purely for the purpose of beating him if he is exposed.
"I'm envious. Although it costs a lot to repair the Star Gate, at least it saves hundreds of thousands of comprehensive resources."
Faced with Chu Hua's sigh, Tina consoled her: "At least we are still ahead in technology. Our team is constantly refreshed in scientific views during research."
"The existence of the miracle of the galaxy, humans simply cannot imagine the principle of its operation."
"I have a hunch that future technological projects will not be achieved through research."
Tina's words are not alarmist, human imagination is limited.
It is impossible to create new technology out of thin air without reference objects or data.
Some people have also asserted that humans must get rid of themselves in order to survive in the universe.
Regarding this point, Chu Hua could not deny it.
"Okay, I've almost finished talking about the Star Gate."
"Let's discuss the construction of the Star Castle next."
After finishing the topic of the Star Gate, Chu Hua made tea and asked the royal chef Ma Luo to prepare pastries.
The consumption of mental energy is not low. After the two had a short afternoon tea, Tina moved to another key project.
[Star Castle: The Fourth Generation Star Base]
"The establishment of the Star Fortress will allow us to break away from the restrictions of borders and expand Daxia's sphere of influence across the galaxy."
"Of course, limited by the star conditions in the galaxy, the jump points that can be crossed are about five to ten."
Tina said.
