Chapter 465 The Secret of the Fifth Era

Lu Yuan had studied "time-space tidal harmony conversion" in the past, and found that it was just a simple physical job. He had to work for hundreds of years to get a little luck, so he was too lazy to do it.

It was equivalent to spending spiritual energy and manpower and material resources to get a small amount of "luck".

"It sounds a bit like... Bitcoin?"

"Spending a lot of energy to make something that has no practical use, but is inexplicably valuable?" Lu Yuan was speechless, "Pangu Continent's blockchain?"

Hai Zhiyun said: "It is indeed possible that there is a blockchain system at the idealistic level... This thing is useful for Pangu Continent, but it is useless to us."

But no matter what, this inexplicable thing "tidal harmony conversion" must be studied. If it can be more efficient, it can be used.

The second key research direction is - "emotional harmony conversion".

A long time ago, when Lu Yuan completed a certain civilization milestone, the reward he received was a "magic cube-level energy", a large light blue cube.

This extraordinary item can generate 40-50 spiritual charms out of thin air in a year, helping humans through many difficult stages of development.

Even from today's perspective, 40-50 productivity per year is still not low.

Its principle was simply illusory in the past, but now, after analysis by scientists, it is found that it can collect emotional fluctuations, fire energy, and a small amount of space-time tidal energy, etc. emitted by humans, and transform them into spiritual charm.

It is a very clever skill, and it may even be a technology of level 4 or even level 5 civilization, called "emotional harmony conversion".

But this "magic cube-level energy" only needs 50,000 to 100,000 people to operate at full power, and now there is no way to continue to increase output with a population of one million.

Humans do have to study their own spiritual charm harmony conversion equations. Even if the efficiency is not as good as "magic cube-level energy", it is a good thing to collect a few more spiritual charms every year.

"The times are developing, and the technology that seemed inexplicable before is also slowly being deciphered." Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

These seemingly high-end technologies, he didn't even dare to think about them alone.

Now it is slowly being deciphered.

As for more development directions, it is hard to think of them.

"I think our biomedical technology is also a technology of the third-level civilization, and it is more likely to sprint to a higher level. Although it does not involve civilization points, it is indeed a very clever means, containing the wisdom of countless people."

"The universal factory... may be a fourth-level technology, and there is no way to decipher it for the time being."

"The flying saucer of the quantum civilization... is incomprehensible."

"The space carvings of the Dalai Empire... are incomprehensible."

"Some gear wreckage of the gear civilization... are still incomprehensible."

Everyone expressed their opinions, and the office was very lively.

Lu Yuan couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard that bunch of "incomprehensible" things: "Ahem, don't dwell on those, be down-to-earth. In addition to the technology of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, is there nothing else that can be studied?"

Hai Zhiyun came to a conclusion: "Yes, but it is very difficult in the short term. Technologies that mobilize the power of heaven and earth, such as lightning storms and volcanic eruptions, require a lot of resources to manufacture large-scale control devices. We don't have so many resources for the time being."

"Level 3 technology, the research cost of those developed from the anomaly will be relatively low."

"If it is a technology developed by yourself, it will require a lot of resources to pile up, the cost will be quite high, and the difficulty will be relatively high."

"From this perspective, we are indeed a rookie civilization, without even the resources for independent research..."

"Of course, we can only think of ways to use the little mirage dragon and the immortal giant turtle, and perhaps we can extend a new low-cost technology route. As far as I know, the most likely third-level technology to be realized is the [Iron Curtain of All Things], which comes from the immortal giant turtle. Its specific function is to greatly increase the defense of mechanical units and achieve a short-term "immortality" effect."

Hearing him say this, Lu Yuan couldn't help rubbing his nose: "Ahem, why does it sound a bit like the iron curtain device in a certain game?"

"Yes, that's where the inspiration was drawn from."

People couldn't help laughing again.

But then again, the original source fire civilization was strong until the end of the era, and it also had its own adventures. It's normal that it is richer than humans.

The history of human 18 civilization is only more than two hundred years, and it is impossible to compare with the old civilization. And the number of third-level technologies currently possessed is not acceptable, right?

Everyone talked a lot in this closed-door meeting.

Every generation of young people has their own ideas and expectations.

Occasionally, there will be scholarly spirit and impracticality.

But their starting point is always good, they have not suffered too much hardship, and there is a little ideal light.

I have to admit that the world belongs to the young!

Even Lu Yuan feels that he is still very young, and it is the age to make a career.

"Let's do this for now. The key research and development directions in the future are the third-level technology related to "increasing revenue and reducing expenditure", the research of high-performance computers, the further deepening of Lingyan technology, the exploration of composite idealistic materials, weak artificial intelligence, unmanned detection... and the Iron Curtain of All Things!"

"Comrades, if you encounter any difficulties, you can tell me directly, don't be afraid of anything, I will always be your backer."

"Okay, it's getting late, disband!"

The young people left one after another, with expectations and smiles on their faces.

…

After the crowd left, only Hai Zhiyun was still in the office, looking around, looking like he wanted to find out confidential information - he simply inherited Lu Yuan's character perfectly.

"Why do you want me to treat you to dinner?" Lu Yuan's heart tightened and he covered his wallet.

Lu Yuan's salary is actually quite good, but the benefits alone are a bit overwhelming, so he can only dig in and out.

"Dad Lu, I have made an important discovery. It's not good to tell it in a crowd..."

"Tell me and listen."

"I analyzed a large number of ancient documents and calculated the development process over the years, and found that there are actually many inexplicable and unexplainable places in our Green City."

"So I think there are many unknown secrets that have not yet been made public. Just like the Diner Empire's spaceship, why was it placed in the sinkhole? The area of ​​the sinkhole is so precious, and there is obviously a reason to stuff a broken spaceship. Bar?"

"Brother Yun, you know too much." Lu Yuan said angrily, "If a civilization wants to develop, it must have secrets. You don't want me to tell you, do you?"

"When you grow to a certain height, you will naturally know. Diner's spaceship is very dangerous, so don't study it."

Being called "Brother Yun" by Lu Yuan, the young man couldn't help but feel his face getting hot.

There are indeed many secrets of human civilization.

Let’s not talk about Lu Yuan’s personal secrets, such as the “real paradise” in the “green paradise”, the fruit of life, the [vampire] and the mirror [demon] in the Diner Empire laboratory.

There are even remnants of [Demon·Shadow], which are all terrifying secrets!

But no matter how good the secret is, there are always some clues, and it is normal for this smart person to analyze some.

"Since you said so, I won't know for the time being."

Hai Zhiyun regained his composure: "But there is another very important thing. During the process of checking the information, I found that the development route of the ancient era was different from the current one."

"In the era long ago, the idealist route was the main one. Natural disaster-level visions were all born from ancient times. There were many myths at that time, and the number of giant beasts and visions was countless, including the immortal who had lived for a long time. Mr. Giant Turtle was also born in the ancient era.”

"But I don't know that from a certain era, the emergence of the materialist line led to changes in the development routes of major civilizations... The number of new anomalies has decreased. What I mean is that the number of new varieties has decreased, but the old varieties will still exist. Born naturally.”

"Okay, I want to hear what you analyzed..."

Lu Yuan took the young man to the Dafantong Canteen and ordered an expensive set meal for two.

The robot's eyes lit up.

"Oh! You have paid for the luxury package for two people, 288 yuan!"

His heart was bleeding. This big rice bucket canteen was getting more and more expensive. It was said that it was run by a novel writer with the pen name "Eternal Furnace". He was really an extremely greedy person.

Hai Zhiyun was naturally very happy to be a fan brother, and continued: "First of all, the first conclusion is that Mr. Immortal Giant Turtle has a very special point, he has wisdom. However, subsequent birth visions often do not Wisdom, all wise people seem to be old people..."

"Maybe the samples are not rich enough...and isn't the little mirage dragon also intelligent?" Lu Yuan took a sip of the soup.

"No, the little mirage dragon was born through Nirvana, which is different."

"We can boldly assume that in a certain era, the probability of the birth of wisdom visions dropped significantly. And this era happened to be the era when the materialist line emerged."

Hai Zhiyun drew a horizontal line on the table.

“Before this age, wisdom and visions abounded.”

"After this, visions of wisdom were rare..."

Lu Yuan was just listening casually at first, but as he listened, he frowned: "What era?"

"The fifth era... suspected, not sure."

Lu Yuan instinctively felt a little uneasy. The number of the fifth era... was a bit sensitive.

Ghosts, demons, demons and monsters, if the four major natural disasters distinguish one era, wouldn't the next one be the fifth one?

He looked around for a while, thinking that this bit of information should be nothing, and motioned for the other party to continue.

Haizhiyun took a few mouthfuls of mushroom chicken rice and took another sip of soup: "There is no extraordinary level in a purely materialistic route. Even if some spiritual techniques are combined, the extraordinary level of items will be greatly reduced."

"Just like the superconducting composite material, the 'ether phase fiber' is only a low-quality material in theory. But its practical uses are very broad. It is the front-end technology for controllable nuclear fusion..."

"Even if controllable nuclear fusion is really achieved, I think the entire power generation device may only be at the rare level, and it is unlikely to surpass the excellent level. But its effect is much more powerful than a legendary axe."

Hai Zhiyun talked eloquently: "Pandora crystal is awesome enough, but it is also inferior. It is actually a natural composite material... Pandora crystal was only produced after the emergence of materialism."

"So we can think that since the birth of this line of combining materialism and idealism in the Fifth Age, the rules of the entire Pangea Continent have been changed."

“In subsequent eras, this line became popular, and the combination of spiritualism and materialism became the real mainstream.”

“This route is economical and practical.”

"Simpler than pure materialism, and more economical than pure idealism."

Lu Yuan nodded, it sounded reasonable.

Hai Zhiyun changed the subject: "But couldn't civilization before the fifth era have thought of this route?"

"I think it's impossible. There are too many civilizations, like the sands of the Ganges. There are always some innate technological civilizations. Before they came to Pangu Continent, they had pure materialistic technology and corresponding development concepts."

"There is only one possibility. Before the fifth era, the physical rules of Pangu Continent were interfered with. Maybe they couldn't even generate stable electric current, so they could only take the idealistic route."

"In the world at that time, idealism was prevalent. Even if they could do things like fantasy and cultivation, I wouldn't be surprised."

"We can even think that it was a fantasy world!"

"But in a certain era in the middle, that is... the fifth era, pure physics suddenly rose again, idealism and materialism began to balance, and everyone could take a new path again."

"Why did this happen? There must be a huge turning point in the middle. I consulted a lot of documents of the Green Civilization and found some clues. There must have been a super-large-scale prehistoric war that changed..."

"Okay, I can't say anymore." Suddenly, Lu Yuan's eyes flashed red.

This is the mental shock from [Control].

It was not to control the young man, but to make him stop talking.

The depth of this information was already poisonous.

With a "bang", the spoon in Hai Zhiyun's hand fell on the table.

His mind was in a daze after being hit like this. It took him several seconds to come back to his senses. He looked at the commander-in-chief in a daze.

Lu Yuan sighed: "The reason why secrets are secrets is because the eyes of the world are everywhere... We are all birds in a cage."

"Even speculation is dangerous."

"Humans are a little stronger than you think, but the epoch disaster is 100 million times stronger than you think."

Hai Zhiyun was stunned. Smart people can often think of a lot quickly.

His brain began to work fiercely, and sweat began to appear on his forehead.

His thoughts extended from the disaster of ghost fog...

Finally, he sighed: "I understand a little bit. This world is really terrible."

"The pits dug by the previous civilizations are too big. What kind of mess did they leave us?"

"Not entirely. Without the previous civilizations, there would be no us... We have indeed enjoyed the kindness of our predecessors."

The two ate in silence. Hai Zhiyun was under great pressure. The more he ate, the less delicious it felt. He wanted to study it immediately.
