Chapter 1365: Pandora’s Box?
Another universe
A place shrouded in mist, like a fairyland.
“Goddess, we just sensed an energy scan from another universe,” a scantily clad woman said respectfully, kneeling on the ground.
A light, ethereal voice came from within the mist: "Other universes?"
"So there's a T6 technological civilization in this area too?"
"I don't know."
"Send someone to investigate, at least to determine what kind of interstellar civilization the other party is."
"yes."

Zhao Chen was naturally unaware that his second experiment with the second unit had already had a huge impact.
Even if he knew that, he would probably still continue without hesitation.
Because he had no other choice.
Zhao Chen has already begun summarizing the experimental process of Unit 2.
"There is still a lot of instability in energy transmission. First of all, we need to define more precise energy properties."
Furthermore, improvements need to be made to the transmission method.
The number of lines in this area needs to be increased by one-third to improve transmission efficiency, and efforts should be made to further improve the materials used.
If it's truly impossible to increase the temperature, then try to use cooling equipment and instruments to ensure the smooth operation of the equipment and instruments during subsequent overload operation.
"Furthermore, the strength of the materials used in this equipment should be geared towards its ability to withstand high-intensity internal energy."
And in order to increase this performance.
We can increase our internal strength, but we don't need to worry about external factors.
After all, this thing's activation energy comes from the inside out.
Instead of from the outside in.
"The main reason for this explosion was the prolonged high-intensity energy input to the kernel driver, which caused the machine to run."
Ultimately, it could not withstand the pressure and exploded.
This kernel driver needs further improvement.
............
Dr. Camille listened attentively to His Majesty's advice.
After working with His Majesty for a while, she discovered that His Majesty's suggestions were often very insightful and to the point.
If His Majesty could remain with their project planning team, it would be a tremendous help to their project planning.
But she knew it was impossible.
As far as she knew, there were currently as many as five top-secret projects under the personal supervision of the Emperor at the Imperial Military Research Institute alone.
Ordinary people would never know that this is because she is a top talent in certain technological fields, and communication between various projects is inevitable.
That's how she found out about these things.
Therefore, Dr. Camille cherishes every opportunity to communicate with His Majesty the Emperor and never misses any important point that His Majesty mentions.
"Next, we will build Unit 3."
Based on the current situation of our experiments.
"I estimate that Unit 3's performance can be improved by at least three to ten times." Zhao Chen looked at Dr. Camille and asked, "How long will I have to wait this time, Dr. Camille?"
"Two months," Dr. Camille said decisively. "The third unit can be built in two months."
Zhao Chen looked at Dr. Camille with appreciation and nodded: "Okay, then I'll wait for your machine in two months."
During this period, I will also assist you with the relevant technical data upgrades.
Anything you are unsure about or have questions about.
You can contact me.
Our cooperation has been perfect so far.
"His Majesty's knowledge is beyond our imagination."
With your help, our project is poised for success! Dr. Camille is certain that what she is saying is not flattery.
It comes from the heart.
Almost all the PhDs, scholars, and researchers working here.
They all sincerely admire His Majesty's academic abilities, technical skills, and incredible wisdom!
Is it just around the corner?
He also hopes that it will really happen soon.
Zhao Chen gave Dr. Camille a few final instructions before leaving.
He has more work to do.
Although each project plan has its own team, Zhao Chen is responsible for the research of many core technologies, at least in terms of theory.
Even with Anne, Nana, and assistants like Camille, we can only entrust the actual operational aspects to them.
Zhao Chen returned to his office.
This time, Anne sat obediently at her desk and busied herself, though she might have looked better if the white ice cream hadn't clung to her lips.
Zhao Chen didn't pursue the matter and sat back down in his chair.
He rubbed his temples.
"Your Majesty, this is a plant from a planet called Plafo, which is native to the Angel race. It is somewhat similar to tea from the human race."
Drinking it can relieve mental fatigue.
In other words, it's to refresh and invigorate. Nicole, the angelic assistant, placed a cup of tea on Zhao Chen's table.
I could smell that faint, pleasant fragrance.
"Thank you." Zhao Chen picked it up, drank it at the perfect temperature, and finished it in one gulp.
I must say, it tastes really good.
Seeing His Majesty's satisfied expression, Nicole, the angel assistant, also breathed a sigh of relief.
This thing is extremely rare even among the angel race.
That planet was specifically designated by the Angels to cultivate this exceptional plant because it could produce it, but even so, the yield was extremely low.
What's more, this is the top-tier one.
Previously, only the Angel King could enjoy it.
"Your Majesty, there are some things I need to report to you," Nicole's angelic assistant whispered. "Would you like to rest for a bit, or..."
"Just say it," Zhao Chen waved his hand.
Nicole's angel assistant immediately began to report.
The initial part focused on the projects Nana was in charge of. There was progress, but it was slow and not any breakthroughs.
The problem here naturally lies in the raw materials and energy sector.
In addition, there is the current industrial production plan of the Dragon Empire.
In addition to making up for the starships lost by the various fleet groups in the previous war.
There are also new fleet group construction plans.
Finally, Nicole Angel Assistant released several holographic images of interstellar warships.
"These are several interstellar warships that Your Majesty previously entrusted to the starship production department for production."
Some of these technologies have been mastered and put into production.
Within one to two weeks, the first batch of these interstellar warships will roll off the production line and enter the pre-delivery sea trials phase.
This was the last thing Nicole's angel assistant reported.
This piqued Zhao Chen's interest.
This is because Zhao Chen selected the most suitable technology for the current Xiaolong Empire from all the plans provided by the system.
When Chief Engineer Nana received these technologies, she couldn't help but sigh with admiration.
With these technologies, the Dragon Empire will fully enter an era where T5 is the standard technology and T6 is the cutting-edge technology!
This is actually Zhao Chen's positioning of the Xiaolong Empire for the foreseeable future.
Because this bug no longer exists in the system.
The future development of the Dragon Empire will inevitably slow down, or even return to the development speed of a normal interstellar civilization.
Therefore, Zhao Chen needs to establish a fixed technological order for the Xiaolong Empire.
That is, the general public mainly uses T5 technology and technologies below T5.
The military and certain high-value areas primarily use T6-level technology.
This forms an ecosystem of imperial technology.
This can be called the first major technological revolution since the establishment of the Dragon Empire.
This time, Zhao Chen brought out a lot of technology.
Not only has it completed the T6 level technology map, but it has even added the T5 level technology map.
Some people may have doubts.
Why use the outdated T5 technology when we already have the more advanced T6 technology?
Because in the Dragon Empire, if you use T6 level equipment in all places and locations, it might be wasteful.
For example, some remote galaxies.
But not building these things for them would be tantamount to keeping them away from the empire.
Therefore, the synergy between T5 and T6 technologies is the optimal solution in Zhao Chen's mind.
Zhao Chen looked at the holographic projections in front of him.
“This only includes starships and some important interstellar facilities. There’s no need to show Your Majesty all the smaller civilian technologies,” said Nicole’s angel assistant.
That's right.
Because the number of holographic projections in front of us alone is in the double digits.
Some were combat-type interstellar warships, but most were auxiliary starships and industrial facilities.
for example.
There are only two military weapons among them.
T6 Borei-class heavy star battlecruiser!
This is one of the few remaining pieces of the puzzle for the Xiaolong series of interstellar warships.
Next to it is a very small holographic image.
T6 Phoenix Guard-class medium multi-functional interstellar combat mech.
Even in the T6 technology era, combat mechs are still an indispensable piece of battlefield equipment, even if they are now only playing a supporting role on the battlefield.
But it is still indispensable.
The rest are some battlefield support interstellar warships.
T6 Star Elf-class Heavy Starship Supply Ship, T6 Holy Staff-class Medium Starship Medical Ship, T6 Silent Ghost-class Light Starship Stealth Reconnaissance Ship.
The emergence of these auxiliary interstellar warships will greatly enhance the combat effectiveness of the JF-17 fleet on the battlefield.
After reading these...
Zhao Chen then looked at another group of holographic images.
Nika's Angel Assistant had clearly categorized these items for Zhao Chen's convenience.
T6 Star Castle-class large starport, T6 Altar-class large stargate.
T6 Blacksmith-class Medium Interstellar Industrial Ship, T6 Star Whale-class Super Heavy Interstellar Transport Ship, T6 Mechanical Ant King-class Heavy Interstellar Mining Ship.
T5 Lunar Spring-class large starports and T5 Voyager-class medium-sized stargates.
T5 Scavenger-class Heavy Interstellar Mining Ship.
From starports to the Covenant, then to interstellar industrial ships, interstellar transport ships, and interstellar mining ships.
It can be said to have everything.
They even filled all the gaps that were originally at the T5 level.
With all these technologies being put to the test, how could this not be a major revolution for the Dragon Empire?
When all these technologies are in operation within the Dragon Empire, what will the Dragon Empire look like?
The large and small stargates work together, with the large stargates serving as the main trunk lines and the small stargates as the branch lines, forming a stargate transportation network that connects the entire Xiaolong Empire.
Ensure that every galaxy has at least one stargate connecting it to the outside world.
This was already part of Lilith's previous empire-building plan.
And there's Star Harbor.
Large and small starports are built according to the needs of each star system.
Although Zhao Chen has the more advanced T6 God Palace-level interstellar complex under construction.
However, if that thing were to be deployed throughout the entire Dragon Empire, the cost would be too high, making it extremely inefficient.
With these large and small satellite ports working together, a distribution system with upper, middle and lower levels can be formed.
The goal is to ensure that every star system in the Dragon Empire has a starport, but without creating a waste.
Interstellar mining ships and interstellar transport ships go without saying; advanced ones are used for long-distance transport and for high-resource-capacity operations.
It's not that paradise is the best; it's about choosing what's more suitable!
The T6 Blacksmith-class medium-sized interstellar industrial ship supplements the shortcomings of the T6 Steel Star City.
For some construction projects that require relocation, an interstellar industrial fleet consisting of T6 Blacksmith-class medium-sized interstellar industrial ships can be dispatched to carry them out.
"Secretary Lilith asked me to inquire about you."
This batch of new interstellar warships has rolled off the production line, or will be officially delivered and put into use in the future.
"Are you attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony?" Nika's assistant relayed Lilith's secretary's words.
Since giving birth, Secretary Lilith returned to work in almost no time.
Although the previous work was handled by the secretarial department.
But Lilith was still worried and would reorganize some important things.
Furthermore, since the Xiaolong Empire is currently not engaged in combat and is in a period of rapid development, there are naturally more things that she needs to handle and arrange.
With the technological advancements Zhao Chen has brought out, Lilith is now extremely busy.
"That won't be necessary."
"Just have Lilith or Charlotte attend," Zhao Chen said casually.
What outsiders would consider a great honor, Zhao Chen felt at that moment was less worthwhile than spending the time in his office editing a program or compiling a theoretical document.
"Chief Engineer Nana said so."
To fully digest the technologies you previously provided.
Including grassroots technology, it will take at least three to six months.
"The military might be faster," Nicole's assistant added.
"The technology has been handed over to them; how to arrange it is their business."
"I only care about the results," Zhao Chen said calmly.
He scanned the holographic images of these technologies once more.
He has provided everything the system can provide.
The path ahead for the Dragon Empire and the difficulties it will face.
They really have to rely on themselves.
Zhao Chen clenched his fist.
This is a kind of pressure that has never been seen before.
It came from the enemy, from the future, and also from Zhao Chen's own heart and sense of responsibility.
The Dragon Empire.
Like rowing against the current, if you don't move forward, you'll fall behind!
