Earth, Donghua City, headquarters of the Supernatural International Alliance.
The broad streets were busy with traffic, and the international airport was extremely busy with international flights. Every ten minutes, a plane landed on the ground.
On this day when flowers are in full bloom, the supernatural communication meeting held once every 14-15 months is solemnly held. Tens of thousands of experts from all walks of life gathered in this young city to share their research status in the past year.
It has to be said that the drift bottle communicated with Zhang Ming is almost the top secret of the headquarters, and it is also a big political bargaining chip!
The knowledge conveyed by the drift bottle cannot be easily missed by any enterprising scientist.
The originally small Donghua City has become prosperous in the past ten years because of scientific and technological exchanges.
Few people know how the Supernatural Headquarters came into contact with Zhang Ming, the "father of human breathing techniques" who is far away.
But on this day, something seemed to go wrong with that connection, causing rumors to fly.
"It is said that the contact work at the headquarters has encountered a lot of trouble. The data transmitted this year is not too much, so don't expect too much."
Scientists are naturally keen on gossip, especially when the news is of vital interest.
"What's the trouble? There should be a lot of legacy left by the Flaming Horns and Blue Crystals, right? With the current transmission speed, we can't finish it in a hundred years!"
Several foreign scientists sat in a restaurant, ordered breakfast, and chatted.
The atmosphere in the restaurant is relaxed and outstanding scholars from all over the world gather together.
The food provided is quite exquisite. In order to cater to everyone's taste, both Chinese and Western food are available.
The young scholar enthusiastically ordered a piece of pasta and another order of fried dumplings. When the steaming hot fried dumplings were served, he took a bite with a satisfied smile on his face.
"It is said that Mr. Zhang's computer is broken, so the information provided this time is all in paper form, and the amount of information is naturally not as good as in the past."
"Oh my god... why did the computer break down?" Several other people immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Don't you have a spare?"
An older expert at the next table listened to their conversation and interrupted: "The computers used by Mr. Zhang were all produced before the advent of the supernatural era. After so many years of use, it is normal for them to break down."
"Maybe those computers are older than you young people."
"That's right... I was still in kindergarten at that time, and I was still watching mirages in the sky."
These scholars began to doubt life one by one. A small computer broke down and actually hindered the development of human civilization. This thing is so unbelievable, but it actually happened. It is simply irritating!
The older expert smiled and said: "The information sent this time is mostly about the practice of 'Vajra', and there are also some experiences in the world of three-tailed monkeys."
"It's 'King Kong' again, it's not my research direction."
"By the way, how is the three-tailed monkey world?"
"It seems to be a pretty magical world. He sent me a small amount of blood samples. I wonder if there is any possibility of cloning."
"Alas, all of us humans can only hide under the protection of the world and dare not explore rashly."
These top experts in the supernatural field happily discussed the latest gossip news and experiences from other worlds. The chat was very relaxed and interesting.
As long as Zhang Ming sends over a little bit of information related to his industry, the enlightenment significance will be huge enough. After all, humans are a very young civilization and don’t know much about the supernatural. Who doesn’t want to open up a brand new subject and have their name recorded in textbooks?
In the past twenty years, human supernatural science has soared like a rocket!
You must know that the step from 0 to 1 is the most difficult, and it requires countless people's efforts. The reason why people on earth have developed so fast is not because humans are particularly smart, but because they have absorbed the knowledge systems of the Azurite people and the Flame Horn people.
Therefore, studying the information sent by Zhang Ming is a top priority here on Earth.
Whenever a conference is held on this day, it is a grand exchange event for global scientists!
After breakfast, in the science center of the Supernatural Headquarters, experts and professors started a new day of communication.
There are a total of about ten large conference rooms, and there are 6 rooms where pure theoretical science is exchanged, and various formulas are like bibles.
There are also some rooms where progress at the application level is communicated. These rooms attract a large number of high-ranking officials, nobles, and consortium bosses. Industries such as mutant life breeding, exotic object processing and manufacturing, and mutant plant cultivation are currently the most popular applied disciplines.
Economy is still very important. The so-called economic base determines the superstructure. If a certain rare item can only be used by a small number of people and cannot be scaled up, the economic benefits it brings will be limited. But if a certain result can be used by the general public, the huge economic effect after the market expansion will naturally accelerate the development of the discipline and form a positive cycle.
In one of the large rooms, Comrade Li Xianfeng announced the latest research progress.
"...the above is a data storage device made using light and shadow stones and modern technology."
"The general principle is to simulate bioelectricity at a voltage of 90 millivolts and activate the supernatural properties of the light and shadow stone..."
"We spent a whole year figuring out its rough information encoding, starting from page 22 of the paper and going all the way to page 38..."
"Compared with electronic products, its cost is higher, and the amount of data it stores is about 400MB. At the same time, it requires higher mental strength and concentration, otherwise there will be more errors."
"The advantage is that it is durable and not easily damaged. It can also communicate with people's thoughts and can easily read articles and pictures... It's a bit like directly instilling memories."
Li Xianfeng handed the small stone to a woman sitting in the front.
This lady was a political dignitary of a certain big country. With a curious look on her face, she carefully picked up the green stone, closed her eyes and felt the contents.
Then he exclaimed: "It's incredible. I have an immersive hallucination in my mind. The speed of knowledge exchange is very fast! It may only take ten minutes to read a 100,000-word file."
The observers in the room experienced it one by one and thought this product was good.
"What a great creation. What is the current manufacturing cost?" A silver-haired old man asked with interest. "Can it be marketed on a large scale?"
Li Xianfeng shook his head: "Because of the scarcity of light and shadow stones, this thing cannot be manufactured on a large scale. But if we can find a large vein of light and shadow stones, we may be able to reduce the price."
"However, this thing is still useful. Because Mr. Zhang Ming's computer is damaged, it can be used as a communication medium in the future..."
“So that’s the case, that’s indeed an amazing achievement!” There was a lively discussion in the venue.
The fact that this problem has been resolved is a relief for many people.
.
Next, another expert named "Yuan Ping" came on stage to demonstrate the latest research results: a mutated rice called "New Era Type III Rice."
Professor Yuan, who wears glasses and has gray hair, said: "After years of follow-up investigations, we have found that long-term consumption of this rice can strengthen the body and prolong life. The special ingredients it contains can greatly increase the efficiency of human breathing."
"Because the spirit contained in it is relatively mild, even the frail elderly can eat it normally."
There was warm applause and discussion below.
"Professor Yuan, what are its shortcomings? If there were no shortcomings, this kind of rice would have been popularized long ago, wouldn't it?"
The tanned old professor showed a simple smile: "Of course there are shortcomings. Its output is too low and it is very delicate."
"Mortality rates are particularly high during the budding stage."
Professor Yuan showed a large amount of experimental data on the screen: "Even with extremely careful care, the yield in the laboratory is about 50 pounds per mu. Because the mortality rate during the germination period is too high, it is difficult to increase the yield per mu. .”
"But we found that in the Demonic Sea, the yield of this plant will be greatly increased, reaching about 500 kilograms per acre, or even more than 1,000 kilograms!"
This caused even greater discussion.
The yield of 50 kilograms per acre is still laboratory production capacity and does not have much research value.
If all human farmland were planted with this stuff, it is estimated that 90% of the population would starve to death!
All of you here are high-level human beings, and you don’t want to see a situation in which all living beings are devastated and self-extinction occurs.
However, in the Sea of Demons, the yield per mu is 500 to 1,000 kilograms, which is a bit interesting...
But you must know that it is the Sea of Demon Gods.
Governments of various countries have reached cooperation agreements and have strict control over ships entering and leaving the Demonic Sea.
"Professor Yuan, even if the yield per acre is a thousand pounds, the cost of cultivation in the Sea of Demon God is still very high! Even if all the space of a 100,000-ton giant ship is used for soilless cultivation, it will not be able to plant many fields, and the cultivation cycle It will take 4-6 months, which is a huge drain on the staff on the ship." A Daxia official frowned and said, "Is there any way to reduce the cost?"
Professor Yuan was silent for a moment and nodded: "Of course there are ways."
"I said in the paper that the seeds of this mutant rice have a very high mortality rate during the germination stage, but after germination, they can grow healthily on the earth. So we only need to transport the seeds to the Sea of Demon God to sprout, It only takes a few days for them to germinate and then be transported back to the earth for planting.”
This remark indeed sparked widespread discussion!
The cost has indeed been reduced to a level acceptable to humans. Rice seeds from a large cargo ship are transported to the Sea of Demon Gods to germinate, and can be transported back to Earth for planting in just a few days.
Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of tons of mutant rice can be obtained at once! This economic benefit is extremely impressive and can even change the future and destiny of human civilization!
