Rebirth at the end of the world: I report to the country!

Chapter 158 158· Scientific Research Alliance, a different future of the Seven Alliances.

December 14, 2024, 19:40 pm - there are only seventeen days left before the polar night disaster arrives, and Blue Star enters the year 2025.

Zhonghe City, the highest military research base.

If the current Zhonghe City is the core of the East Kingdom, then the highest base located in the middle of Zhonghe, fully armed and heavily guarded, is the core of the East Kingdom's core.

This place holds all the most cutting-edge equipment, talents, and weapons in the East Kingdom.

No one who walks or lives here is an ordinary person.

I haven't been back for ten days, and now I have such research results? Mr. No. 1, I really only left for ten days, wasn't it ten years?

Lin Li looked at some of the research results that the old man showed him and felt a little surprised.

He picked up a gun with a strange shape, and then clicked on the screen behind the gun. In the demonstration animation, laser rays only seen in science fiction movies were shot from the muzzle of the same gun on the screen, and they were very powerful and quite continuous. Continuous replaying.

Lin Li was speechless when he saw that the screen had been penetrated and the alloy plate was melted and deformed around the gap.

This thing... you haven't seen it in your last life, right?

And this gun is just one of the many achievements displayed in the military achievements museum that Mr. No. 1 brought him to. There are also a variety of new weapons around.

Some shapes are familiar, others are unfamiliar.

More than these.

In addition to the Military Achievements Archives, there are several Civilian Achievements Archives next door.

There is so much more out there, so diverse, covering almost everything.

And when I left, I had never seen many of them.

In other words, these are the new developments in Dongguo's research on strange stones in the past ten days, which is really outrageous.

Lin Li basically didn't spend much time in Zhonghe City in the past half month. The first few days were for rescue operations and he had been traveling around the East Kingdom. Later, he led the Hope team to continue collecting exotic stones action.

Strange stones seem to only appear during ice disasters, because now during the earthquake disaster, strange stones no longer fall from the sky in Zhonghe City, and no new strange stones appear in the surrounding seas.

——Occasional detections in coastal areas have been found, but the number is small. After speculation, most of them were fish that slipped through the net during the previous ice disaster, or appeared in the next few days.

Lin Li didn't waste time these days on those exotic stones in the surrounding sea areas. They were small in number and widely distributed, so the efficiency was relatively low.

There is a better way that has been considered before - in this blue star, although no new ones are produced, there are still many exotic stones treasure trove that were produced before, right?

So Lin Li took some people to Baal.

Baal is a peninsula with several small countries on it. They were almost destroyed because they did not have the ability to deal with the ice disaster.

Therefore, the exotic stones accumulated in the interior of the peninsula in the past month, which were rarely touched by anyone, became the trophies of Lin Li and his party, and the number was as high as thousands.

As for tsunamis and earthquakes, they pose no threat to Lin Li. There are materials in the inner space to deal with all possible risks.

Any uninhabited place in Blue Star is a treasure.

When the Xinhuo and Hope teams have more people, Lin Li will go to Antarctica in the future. The accumulation on this continent will definitely be much more exaggerated than Barr's.

As for the island flower, Dongguo has not forgotten it and is also planning it.

As for the radiation residue, as early as the end of last month, Dongguo used the isolith inhibitor to advance its nuclear research to several levels, and made excellent progress in its civilian and military applications.

This is the root cause of the rapid establishment of nuclear power plants.

This includes protective clothing, but for the absolute safety of these elites in Dongguo, it will take several rounds of testing before they can be officially put into use.

Three days of farewell are enough to treat each other with admiration. Ten days is enough for you to be treated with admiration three times.

After staying with Lin Li for a long time, Mr. No. 1 would occasionally make some jokes. Then he pointed at the text next to the weapon and said:

But it's not as exaggerated as you think. For example, the gun in your hand is just a very dangerous semi-finished product. The safety of the user cannot be guaranteed. Otherwise, you can shoot it with your own hands instead of Watch the demo video.

At the same time, after each shot, the subsequent reloading process is troublesome, consumes a lot of exotic stones, and is not cost-effective. Even after ensuring safety, there is no possibility of fully staffing it, which is relatively useless.

It is currently only version 0.1 of the weapon, and it will take a lot of time to iterate and improve many shortcomings before it can be put into production.

Most of the exhibits in the Military Archives are in the same condition as this gun - indeed there has been a major breakthrough, and we can do things that we could never do before the era of natural disasters, but there are still shortcomings that cannot be ignored, and they are semi-finished products. , just displayed here.

Let people in the military department become familiar with it and determine which aspects are more valuable for further in-depth research.

When Lin Li heard this, he wanted to say that this was more normal, but then he realized... the speed was still too fast.

After all, for those engaged in scientific research, ten days, let alone producing results, is sometimes unrealistic even to complete a complete experiment.

Furthermore, the military ones cannot be used immediately, but many of the civilian results have been put into the market and appear in every corner of the Eastern Kingdom.

Seemingly understanding Lin Li's thoughts, Mr. No. 1 continued to explain to him:

The development speed is really fast. The important reason for this is that the characteristics of exotic stones are really in line with our research needs. They simply exist for the advancement of technology. The arrival of exotic stones is like steam and electricity. , AI, has set off a new technological innovation.

Before this opportunity, it is abnormal to be slow.

In addition, you must know that our current research on exotic stones is no longer a national effort, but the three top powers of Blue Star working together to study it.

Xiao Lin, you can see so many achievements in front of you, and the establishment of our scientific research alliance is also indispensable.

Brainstorming is always the right path.

Mr. No. 1, how is the scientific research alliance running now?

I just wanted to ask. When I was walking in the building, I noticed that there were many foreign faces. Are we poaching all the talents from the Northern Maoist and Southern Alliance?

Lin Li asked curiously after hearing this. Compared with the earthquake disaster, traveling is much more convenient - at least the sky is not dangerous, but it is still a bit abnormal to suddenly have so many outsiders appear in the core of the East Kingdom.

During this period of time, he has been obsessed with collecting exotic stones. He has not paid special attention to the development of the scientific research alliance in the past half month.

How can there be such an excessive thing? It's too overbearing to poach all the talents. Is this still an alliance of equals? Mr. No. 1 laughed and scolded.

Ah? Aren't we quite domineering? And...are the alliances equal...? Lin Li said softly.

As far as he knew, the Three Kingdoms Scientific Research Alliance was completely led by the Eastern Kingdom. Sometimes the Northern Alliance and the Southern Alliance had to complete the scientific research tasks assigned by the Eastern Kingdom and provide experimental data. The direction and details were determined by the Eastern Kingdom. The autonomy of the remaining two countries...is within the scope divided by the Eastern Kingdom.

Just like a scientific research group, Dongguo is the mentor who gives direction and assigns tasks, while Beimao and Nanlian are the mentor's graduate students.

Moreover, this tutor is very strict and will check the homework from time to time.

And sometimes, some seemingly useless assignments will be released, which are not connected from beginning to end.

But neither the Northern Maoist nor the Southern Alliance had any objections to this arrangement.

After all, Dongguo not only provided them with exotic stones, but also the drawings and production processes of the exotic stone detector that were shared and made public for free at the beginning. How much effort did it save the two countries?

The so-called national-level alliance is, at its core, nothing more than an exchange of interests.

Dongguo has given the value, and Beimao and Nanlian need to feedback that they are worthy of this value.

Beimao and Nanlian are not small in area and are in good locations. A lot of exotic stones have been collected in the mainland during the earthquake disaster. However, these quantities are still insignificant compared to Dongguo, a country that has captured the ocean treasure house in advance. Great witch, so now the three parties are very harmonious as they each get what they need.

Moreover, most of the research results of the three countries' joint efforts are fully disclosed internally by Dongguo.

Mr. No. 1 laughed and shook his head, then explained to Lin Li:

You kid, you want me. I really don't poach people like this, and they won't let them go like this.

Beimao and Nanlian's scientific research equipment suffered relatively heavy losses in the ice disaster, which restricted their research in some aspects. This is the fundamental reason.

Moreover, sending people here is also an opportunity for communication and learning. They probably also want to see where our Dongguo has developed now. After all, we are in the same research laboratory, so it is difficult for us to hide some things. Ha ha.

In the preparation time of half a month, Dongguo learned from Lin Li the speculation that exotic stones could be used for scientific progress, so he took great care in protecting the equipment and materials needed for scientific research, and equipped special vehicles and dedicated personnel to transport these equipment. This is undoubtedly the right decision.

These equipment and materials are indispensable for the rapid development now.

We have also sent our talents to communicate with them. They have given our people great authority. Our people can check the details of almost all projects, including some absolutely state-secret technical documents from before the era of natural disasters.

Mr. No. 1 then said.

The old man didn't say how things were done in Dongguo, but Lin Li estimated that the authority was not very wide. Bei Mao and Nan Lian were a kind of show of loyalty, but where could any teacher show loyalty to his students?

What's more, Bei Mao and Nan Lian must still have their own secrets, and it is impossible to truly tell them all.

It's a pity that Blue Star has some top-notch instruments, but we can't keep them. We can only watch them be destroyed by natural disasters. It's really a pity.

Fortunately, during this month, we established contact with several countries and successfully purchased the remains of these instruments as well as the manufacturing process and key points. Given time, we will definitely be able to reproduce these instruments, which are the crystallization of human wisdom. Our laboratory continues to shine.

Mr. No. 1 said.

Many high-precision instruments and technologies are controlled by companies or countries that strictly restrict their export and sale. Dongguo, as the key target of Feiying's suppression, is an 'old customer' who is often sanctioned in Blue Star.

They refused to sell before and raised the price, so this is the end result. Fei Ying will probably be very angry. Lin Li shrugged.

Some of the skills not only belong to Feiying, but he followed Feiying's instructions and joined the sanctioned team.

After the announcement of the Era of Natural Disasters, Dongguo negotiated with countries that had mastered these technologies and were not from the Seventh Alliance.

But for most of them, the end result is an unhappy ending, and the other party does agree to sell. After all, in the apocalypse, the value of materials in the near future far exceeds that of high-precision instruments, but the lion opens his mouth and the price is too high.

However, the irony now is that the instruments that the Eastern Kingdom was willing to spend a lot of money to obtain before were easily obtained during the earthquake disaster in the Era of Natural Disasters. In fact, the transaction content was negotiated in the later stages of the Ice Disaster, but during this period, the Eastern Kingdom The country does not have the ability to deliver goods.

The cost of acquiring these technologies is nothing more than some airlifted food and drinking water.

The quantity and value are much lower than before, and I don’t know if these people will regret their original decision.

Flying Eagle? Flying Eagle has been silent during this period. Judging from the information sent back by our people, there seems to be some internal problems within them.

Chris seems to be unable to contain the public outrage against the two organizations they have roots in the country.

But if the Illuminati and the Freemasons really organize to hunt down the old, weak, sick and disabled in the country, then damn it.

Mr. No. 1 said calmly.

We thought they would also look to other lands and be prepared for the possibility of another conflict, but that doesn't seem to be the case at the moment.

There was no gloating in the old man's words, nor much resentment.

How the Flying Eagle is developing now is not an issue that needs to be considered at the moment. Perhaps it will only be meaningful to think about when the era of natural disasters is coming to an end.

The most important thing now is to clear the snow in front of your house.

Lin Li was cheerful and didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement: It's good to kill them randomly.

Mr. No. 1 laughed again when he heard this:

Xiao Lin, let me tell you something that will make you happier. Fashou's application to join our scientific research alliance has been rejected three times by our three countries. But today I received their fourth application letter. You said that this round Who is going to reject it for the second time?”

After Fei Ying's chaos, are you going to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side? Lin Li actually laughed.

“Actually, Fashou is very sincere, and the conditions he gave are very good, and he is almost willing to work for us in vain.

When we applied for the second time, our three countries were still considering whether to allow it to join the alliance. After all, we can get broader benefits by bringing together more ideas.

Mr. No. 1 shook his head helplessly:

But when our people went to Fashou for on-site inspection, they found that the situation in Fashou was really bad.

I won't talk about the few exotic stones they have. We don't really care about this. We can give them less.

But if Nanlian and Beimao don’t have cutting-edge laboratories, then Fashou doesn’t even have a decent laboratory!

It was also unstable internally. That night, a large number of people asked us if we could take them away and stay away from here, including a large number of talented people, who also told us some of their inside stories.

I didn’t expect that one of the Seven Alliances would look like this now.

The only thing worthy of praise now is the military power that is relatively good if it is deliberately preserved.

But in terms of scientific research, this does not help at all. I am uncertain about the future of Fashou and the others. So we have been rejecting applications because we don't think the addition of Magic Hands is a good thing or makes sense for us. After all, as members of the alliance, we need to be responsible for it. Mr. No. 1 said.

There is a common thread behind the scientific research alliance - even if it is not fulfilled, no one can say anything.

The flying eagle is silent, the gentry is tired of dealing with the earthquake and tsunami, the underworld is in civil strife, and the magic is so bad. The former enemies have changed so much in two months. Lin Li lamented.

We are no longer enemies. Our only opponents are alien species and natural disasters. Mr. No. 1 said.
