Chapter 736: Chapter 449: Short-Range Warp Ability【5200 words, super-sized chapter! Request for monthly tickets!】_2
Leaving aside how cleverly Harrison rk managed to disable the self-destruct protection of the Egyptian Tribe’s Spaceship, his calm demeanor even after a life-or-death experience was something Freddy would likely never be able to learn in his lifetime.
No wonder he’s considered the best!
“Okay, Freddy,e over quickly. Let’s not chat now, as the information is being lost quickly.”
After a million years, even the best batteries would drain, the most stable geothermal energy collection equipment would degrade, and the information stored in the most stable media would dissipate.
The explosion had been activated by thest ounce of emergency power in the spaceship. Once that was used up, the unstable information in the array-style Egyptian Tribe’s Cerebral Core below began to rapidly copse.
By then, Harrison rk knew the function of over 50,000 Metal Spheres below.
Unlike Earthlings, who use crystals to create Superbrain Cores for quantumputing.
Each individual Egyptian Tribe member is already an equivalent of a separate Cerebral Core, capable ofmunicating information through the Quantum Network.
However, theputing power of a single core is not sufficient when dealing with some more profound cosmic rules and massiveputing demands.
The Egyptian Tribe’s solution was simple and crude but very effective.<div>
They gathered the Cerebral Cores left behind after a tribe member’s death.
At this point, these Cerebral Cores had lost their independent consciousness, turning into pure mechanical creations. They couldmunicate and perform parallelputing, eventually forming a hugeputing carrier, bing Cerebral Cores.
Harrison rk quickly read the information.
When Freddy arrived, the information had mostly dissipated.
“What’s the situation?”
Freddy carefully inquired.
Harrison rk pondered for a moment, “One bad news and one good news. Which one do you want to hear first?”
“The bad one.”
Harrison rk: “I couldn’t find a way to turn the Metal Spheres into a thin film.”
Freddy: “Sigh. What’s the good news then?”
“We can use the Metal Spheres directly.”
“Huh? What are they, and how do we use them?”
Harrison rk suddenly recalled the top-level war machines of the Compound Eye Civilization — the de Mantis, which he had faced inbat.
He dered decisively, “To the Egyptian Tribe, the Metal Spheres are the source of their life and consciousness, but to us Earthlings, they are engines. I hereby name this engine, the Short-Range Warp Engine!”
Freddy first looked puzzled, but then immediately responded, doubtingly, “Short-range? Warp?”
“Yes!”
Humans have surpassed the Egyptian Tribe in many aspects of technology, but they’ve struggled to grasp the concept of individual short-range warping.
However, the de Mantis of the Compound-Eyed Observer could easily perform it.
In the past, Harrison rk had found the short-range warping ability of the de Mantis to be both mysterious and terrifying.<div>
Even when humans had already mastered curvature flight, they still couldn’t understand it.
Now, with Supercurved Motion and Stargate Technology, human ships can achieve simr long-range warp mobility, butpared to the small-scale, almost no pre-eleration required, and energy-free warping of the de Mantis, they still fall short.
In a small-scale battlefield, high-frequency and high-speed yet stable short-range warping is considered an unbeatable divine skill.
In the previous timeline, the human army had paid a heavy price to sessfully eliminate only twenty de Mantis.<div>
Now, Harrison rk finally knew the truth.
The de Mantis’s ability still originated from the half-mechanical, half-biological life of the Egyptian Tribe.
Like the Gsians’ Quantum Thinking Ability, it was the Egyptian Tribe’s innate talent, an ultimate application of three-dimensional space.
The Egyptian Tribe’s body was slightly smaller than that of humans and appeared simr, but there was an essential difference.
Inside the Egyptian Tribe’s body, the true coreponent is actually just one Metal Sphere.
The Metal Sphere acts as the Egyptian Tribe’s brain, heart, and gic information carrier.
Human existence is built on the foundation of their entire body, with the human body being an intact organicbination.
The evolution of the human body perfectly follows thews of natural selection.
But the Egyptian Tribe was different. The Metal Sphere, which ounted for less than 1% of their weight, was their everything.
The Egyptian Tribe’s memory, thinking, logic, emotion, collective consciousness, gic information, and all other essential attributes of intelligent life were carried in the Metal Sphere.N?v(el)B\\jnn
This was the Egyptian Tribe’s core, but it was an inorganic material.
The other 99% mass of the organic parts were externalponents arranged ording to the preferences and needs of the Metal Core.
Determining the Egyptian Tribe’s body evolution was not natural selection, but their active choice, and then targeted correction.<div>
Human evolution is the unconscious changes in human gic information to adapt to the environment.
Humans evolved on Earth to adapt to the Earth and new productive forces.
When humans reached space and the universe, their adaptation targets changed to space, cosmic environments, alien species, and a more extensive knowledge system.
This kind of evolution is slow, slow enough that humans could barely notice it.
But the benefit of slow evolution is precision and stability. No matter the situation, humans can always find the correct posture of existence.
For example, with Earthling’s thinking ability, they first acquired a more extensive knowledge system, then the social system independently evolved into a refined division ofbor, and individuals’ memory constantly improved.
However, the Egyptian Tribe’s evolution sequence was reversed. Their Cerebral Core stored new knowledge first, thenpleted external environment analysis, and finally made an independent choice for targeted corrections in the next generation’s body construction to meet new demands.
