Chapter 170 Preparing for Promotion to Level Three

When Qin Yue discovered that the Chinese fleet appeared in the Dark Island Star Region, he knew that this wave was stable.

Even if they might be slaughtered and racially discriminated against in the free market, at least they already have a way to buy higher-level technology and embark on the road to a higher-level civilization.

And this method is easier and faster than in the previous life!

As for encountering some troubles, it may insult dignity, but it is not a bad thing in Qin Yue's view. After all, knowing shame will make you braver!

Knowing your own shortcomings will make you try harder to catch up!

And China has a stable environment and such development opportunities, while Valo is busy fighting a civil war and can't take care of Yuanyisha for a while, so he doesn't need to do anything for China anymore and can focus on the next goal.

Black Thorn Civilization, and promotion to Level 3 Civilization.

These two choices do not conflict. The Black Thorn Civilization is still far away from the earth, and it has to cross a large amount of Valo territory in the middle. Even if Valo is fighting now, fighting is fighting, and they will still stop when facing foreign enemies! So this matter is not urgent, Qin Yue can upgrade his fleet first.

He didn't know what level the Black Thorn civilization was, but it was definitely not a bad thing for a civilization that could use light quanta to destroy the earth to be more cautious.

Level 3 civilization generally refers to quantum civilization, and its iconic technology is quantum communication.

All technological breakthroughs in advanced civilizations are basically existing theoretical breakthroughs, followed by breakthroughs in materials science, and finally breakthroughs in technology.

Just like the key theory of nuclear fusion was mastered by the earth decades ago, but it was not until the application that the superconducting material submitted by Qin Yue was born.

The core reason for the breakthrough in force field technology is the use of superconducting high-energy density materials.

The core of quantum technology is quantum materials, the large-scale manufacturing and application of quantum entangled pairs.

With quantum entangled pairs, quantum communication can become possible, and then go a step further to study weapons such as quantum waves and quantum pulses, as well as quantum fields, quantum engines, etc., which seem a bit metaphysical in low-level civilizations.

As for what quantum entanglement is, in quantum mechanics, when several particles interact with each other, the properties of each particle have been integrated into the overall properties, and the properties of each particle cannot be described separately, but only the properties of the overall system can be described. This phenomenon is called quantum entanglement or quantum entanglement.

And the two-by-two particle pairs that show quantum entanglement characteristics are quantum entangled pairs.

Quantum entangled pairs can achieve ultra-long-distance instantaneous communication. For example, when Qin Yue was doing something in Moran, all the messages transmitted to the outside world actually relied on the information base station to communicate at the speed of light, but the speed of light has an upper limit, so this communication method has a delay.

Moran's news took more than ten minutes to reach Baimu Mountain, more than half an hour to reach the territory of the King of the Sun, and two or three hours to reach the territory of Gao Cangqiong.

In reality, many media can show a high timeliness, because they all have a small universe, and the signal can be transferred through the small universe.

But if there is quantum communication, why would it be so troublesome!

Level 3 civilization is not only about quantum communication.

Because they are proficient in using quantum particles, their quantum pulses are no longer normal light, but waves that transmit energy forward in the form of quantum teleportation. The wavelength of this wave can be quite large, which means that particles can teleport a considerable distance and maintain a relatively high energy level.

In the face of force field defense, this laser can directly pass through the force field in the form of teleportation and attack the target inside the force field.

Therefore, the third-level civilization basically abandoned the electromagnetic gun, which was bulky, weak, and slow, and was full of problems in the eyes of the third-level civilization.

If quantum laser weapons are used instead, once this technology is released, the second-level civilization will either directly destroy the force field or find a way to thicken its force field, so thick that the quantum laser cannot penetrate it at all.

But the force field is a very energy-consuming thing. If it is thickened by one centimeter, the energy consumed will go up a level. In the face of quantum lasers with adjustable wavelengths, how thick do you have to make it to block the opponent's attack?

They can still be ready to go, but if they don't fire, you have to keep the force field open, wasting energy in vain, and they are completely in control!

There is no way, high-level civilizations fight low-level civilizations, that's how it is.

In addition to communications and weapons, in terms of power systems, level 3 civilizations also have quantum engines.

Low-level quantum engines are based on nuclear fusion engines, adding a quantum afterburner to reuse the heat generated by nuclear fusion to generate lasers and improve the efficiency of the engine.

With improved efficiency, the power of the spacecraft will naturally improve.

There are civilizations that specialize in this kind of spacecraft. Qin Yue has seen such civilizations. They have already made the speed of this spacecraft 12% of the speed of light!

However, this speed is from an experimental spacecraft. If it is applied to a starship, it should be able to reach 5~8%

High-level quantum engines convert the entire combustion process of the fuel into high-energy molecules that release energy, and at the same time, molecules that transition to low energy levels. This part of the released energy will be directly used to propel the spacecraft. The efficiency is higher than the improved version of the nuclear fusion-powered spacecraft mentioned above, and the spacecraft will be faster.

This engine is also specially studied by civilizations, and the effect is amazing. The spacecraft speed can reach 28% of the speed of light!

Even if it is applied to a starship, this speed can reach 15~18%!

In addition to quantum technology, the third-level civilization is also called atomic-level civilization.

Because quantum technology can easily destroy various covalent bonds, metal bonds, and chemical bonds between atoms, this leads to the third-level civilization being able to restore matter to an atomic state and then reassemble it into the shape it wants!

That's right, it's atomic-level 3D printing technology!

This technology seems useless, because the Xinghai system has a processing option, which is atomic-level 3D printing technology.

But the processing option of the Xinghai system must be operated by humans, and human energy is limited. How can one person produce hundreds of thousands of products in a day?

But a fully automatic factory can!

Qin Yue recalled the capabilities of the third-level civilization a little bit, and he couldn't help it.

But he knew that this kind of thing couldn't be rushed. After all, the technology he had was only level two, and it was only the foundation of level two. If he wanted to climb to level three, even if there were ready-made technical data, it would take a long time to build.

He was busy solving the threat of Valo to the earth before, and he had never taken care of it. Now that he was free, he could finally start this work.

If Qin Yue had ready-made equipment, it would be much simpler to prepare quantum entangled pairs, but he didn't, so he could only use a stupid method.

Use the gravitational field to condense a large number of particles, so that a large number of particles attract and collide, and then generate new particles during high-speed collisions, and among these new particles, there are pure natural quantum entangled pairs.

This method has an official name, called the sieving method. As the name suggests, it is to select the particles you want from a pile of unwanted particles, although the probability of the birth of this particle is very low, about one in a billion particles will be born?

There is no way, climbing the level of civilization is so difficult, it has never been smooth sailing, simple things.

As for gravitational field technology, it is also a kind of force field technology, but gravitational field technology is more difficult than electromagnetic force field and strong and weak interaction force field. If people have a realm, then gravitational field technology should be a technology that can only be mastered when they reach the second level of great perfection.

That's right, this technology was given to Verota by Valo, and they haven't come up with it for tens of thousands of years. Perhaps Verota has discovered that gravitational field technology can not only greatly improve the strength of the fleet, but also determine whether a civilization can be promoted to level three, so they deliberately suppressed the progress.

When Qin Yue played Moran Zhongya to report Valo, he also chose some insignificant technologies. He didn't write about this technology, mainly because he was afraid that the technology would be in Valo's hands and increase his difficulty out of thin air.

Now, he can finally do this technology himself!
