Chapter 523

Energy crystal is undoubtedly an extremely important non renewable strategic resource for Gemini civilization.

As an ultra-high density energy storage medium, its energy density is far higher than that of all known substances, including nuclear fuel.

This can not be explained by existing physics, so some people speculate that there is a legendary space technology hidden in the energy crystal, which is of great scientific research value.

In addition, its ultra-high instantaneous energy output performance can not only greatly increase the power of weapons, but also play an important role in miniaturizing weapons and enhancing endurance.

Its discovery and exploitation, for Gemini, is like the application of fossil fuels on earth, which has greatly accelerated the scientific and technological development of civilization.

Increasing the power of weapons, increasing the exploration distance of Starfleet and shortening the navigation time play an irreplaceable catalytic role in the interstellar development history of Gemini civilization!

Because of the important strategic role of energy crystal, general civilization will not trade such important things as trade commodities in large quantities.

Even if the trade commodities are priced based on energy crystals, the two sides only take this as a value measurement method, and it is basically impossible to settle with a large number of energy crystals.

……

"Can you explain the meaning of energy crystal as a 'special commodity'?" Arthas looked at the black deacon.

"Of course, according to the designated trading rules of our allies, the sales methods of energy crystal, a special commodity, need to be distinguished separately. If you want to buy energy crystal, the only designated exchange goods are... 'blank crystal'!"

"Blank crystal?!" the experts behind Arthas exclaimed in unison.

Blank crystal is not a rare cosmic mineral. On the contrary, it is an unusable "waste" in the Gemini civilization.

Because... It is the residue after the energy crystal is exhausted!

Ordinary energy crystal is a ruby red transparent crystal. When the energy is gradually released, its color will gradually fade until it becomes a completely transparent "blank crystal".

To everyone's surprise, it's not that the other party needs this waste as a condition in exchange, but some amazing information contained in this condition

"Do you... Have mastered the charging technology of blank crystal?" an expert couldn't help but be surprised.

Blank crystal is a waste of Gemini civilization because Gemini can't make use of it, but the ant empire will never aim at nothing. This kind of thing obviously has a certain collection value.

Combined with the strange move of the other party to exchange energy crystals for blank crystals, the final answer is ready to come out

Nie Yun has mastered the blank crystal charging technology!

And this... Is also the final product carefully prepared by Nie Yun for Gemini!

At the beginning of discovering the residual energy crystal on the moon, facing the great threat of Gemini, Nie Yun's research on energy crystal mainly focused on how to use this high-density energy in military science and technology.

In the follow-up research, Yu Lao and others skewed the R & D path of energy crystal to the "art" field

Cough! Of course, it cannot be denied that both sides have made remarkable achievements and made certain scientific research achievements.

Facts have proved that the ultra-high instantaneous output capacity of the energy crystal is a perfect match with the powerful energy superconducting material such as mechanical insects. The terrorist lethality of the Mithril fleet has been fully exposed in the adjacent Galaxy war!

The research of Yu Lao and others has also made gratifying progress. It is said that a fancy "energy crystal bomb" capable of directionally and quantitatively spraying energy shock wave has been developed in combination with force field technology

However, Nie Yun's development and utilization of energy crystal is only one year and is still in the stage of small-scale application. Therefore, until the recent war, with the large application and consumption of energy crystal, Nie Yun has more and more blank crystals, so he turned his attention to this "non recyclable waste".

For the use of blank crystal, the highest value is undoubtedly the repeated charging technology!

If this disposable battery can be turned into a rechargeable battery, the energy crystal can almost be used as an inexhaustible conventional energy, and the strategic value has immediately doubled countless times!

However, according to the information obtained by Gemini, they have made little progress in the development of this technology.

In the whole Gemini interior, the blank crystal has not found any effective use value so far. Some Gemini architects even regard them as rare building materials.

Therefore, at the beginning, Nie Yun had little hope for research in this field.

After all, with Gemini surpassing its own scientific and technological conditions, there has been no progress in studying energy crystals for so many years. Nie Yun doesn't think he can catch up with each other in a short time with his current scientific research strength.

However, he didn't want to insert willows into the shade. Yu was almost used to saying "why don't you try the secret silver material?" which directly reminded Nie Yun.

In your own forces, if there is anything that can have a direct impact on cosmic wonders, it seems that there are only mechanical insects suspected to be cosmic wonders.

Whether the fine slag particles are synthesized into a complete energy crystal block or the "vampire serum" obtained after mixing with the water of life undoubtedly shows the unique transformation ability of the mechanical insect to the two items.

Then Nie Yun experimented with the blank crystal with the mechanical insect

The final experimental results are undoubtedly surprising!

The mechanical bug can really charge the blank crystal with its own internal energy!

Although the energy reserve capacity of the mechanical insect is far less than that of the energy crystal, even if all it has can only make a small piece of blank crystal show a slight red trace, the energy does enter the blank crystal

In other words, as long as it provides a steady stream of energy for mechanical insects, it can be used as a special "transformer" to charge the energy crystal!

This discovery made Nie Yun ecstatic.

However... The happy time is short. Just when Nie Yun thought he was going to get rich overnight and sat on an endless energy crystal, the follow-up experiment poured cold water on Nie Yun.

Because after three times of repeated charging, the blank crystal was directly broken into a pile of white powder, and even the mechanical insect could not put it together again.

Accidental phenomenon?

Maybe the action of the mechanical bug is too rough?

Um! By all means!

Mechanical worm: "..." (｀ o ') convex

Nie Yun did several experiments again, but to his disappointment, no matter how gentle the charging process is, the result is still the same every time.

An energy crystal can only be recharged three times at most and can not be reused.

Obviously, although this charging test can charge the blank crystal, each repeated scouring of energy will cause certain damage to the energy storage structure of the energy crystal itself.

After up to three times, the energy crystal whose internal structure has been completely destroyed will disintegrate itself.

Nie Yun finally had to accept the cruel reality depressed.

He felt like he had won "another bottle" three times in a row. Just when he thought he had obtained the "blessing of God" of "another bottle" in an infinite row, the evil "thank you for your patronage" appeared in the next bottle

Life is so exciting
