Chapter 314 Maien History Book

  Main world stores crystals that can be used for billions of years.

  Chen Ji thought about it more carefully, but actually it wasn't too much.

  The Maien world only has crystals, they don’t have the sun, and they don’t seem to have any other energy sources.

In the universe of the earth, solar energy provides human beings with energy for billions of years, and other galaxies will also exist for tens of billions of years, and stars will continue to be born until all stars are extinguished and become white dwarfs, which can still provide life. Certain energy.

   Perhaps hundreds of billions of years later, humans will not be able to obtain any energy from the stars.

  In the Earth’s universe, there are countless stars, and the total amount of energy they can provide to human beings is far more than the crystals that the Maien world consumes for billions of years!

   “We went on a long binge.”

  The conscious body sighed and generally said: "The material resources of society are unprecedentedly abundant, and we waste a lot of energy on entertainment. For millions of years, the development of technology has been very slow."

  Hearing this, Chen Ji glanced at the villagers.

  How happy the Maien people were before, their descendants were just as miserable. Before, the villagers couldn’t even light a lamp, and the dead corpses also recycled the golden altar, turning it into energy and supplying it to the living.

   "The only thing that has been greatly improved is our total population."

  "The Maien people have traveled all over the world, with tens of thousands of countries and regions, and different folk customs. At that time, traveler was the most envied profession."

   "As the population increased, the country's competition for territory and spar gradually became more acute, but we didn't notice it at that time, and the disintegrated Maien society also didn't realize the coming of war."

"Until the man of Yalom appeared, he was born in a country on the edge of the bottom of the world. The hometown of the Maien people is the bottom of the world, so the competition for crystals in his place is more intense. Dozens of countries often fight in the Together.

Yarom is ambitious. He reuses scientists, transforms the bodies of soldiers, creates brand-new war weapons, puts soldiers on spar armor, and promises that military exploits can be exchanged for titles... After a series of reforms, his army has become extremely powerful .

   A hundred years later, he unified the underground, making the entire Maien world pay attention to the underground again.

  Ten years later, Yalom launched an attack on the ground, nibbling away other countries bit by bit.

  People accused him of violating social morality, modifying the soldiers' bodies, calling him a dictatorial tyrant, but they still couldn't stop the pace of Yarom's expansion. "

  "The army led by Yalom is getting stronger and stronger, and many countries are forced to unite... The war spread from the ground all the way to the middle, and finally the entire Maien world participated.

  Yarom was killed, but his successor...

  The flames of war raged everywhere. In the harsh war, Yrom's grandson restored the monarchy and took over all power...

  The war has lasted for many years. Ironically, our technology has developed rapidly during the war.

  Spar weapons have been continuously developed, intelligent robots, war armor, subspace weapons, and even our bodies have been transformed to directly use spar, women have also been dragged into the battlefield, and births are done by machines.

  The war stopped and started again, over and over again. After more than a thousand years, Yalom VII barely unified the whole world.

But he knew that the resistance was still going on, so he forced a large number of scientists to work for him, and created a super machine called "Imperial Majesty", which has unparalleled computing power and can control the mechanized troops of the entire empire. tacit understanding, and can monitor all those who oppose him in the network... He even tried to implant chips in everyone's brain in order to control everyone. "

  Hearing this, Chen Ji couldn't help feeling: "The development of technology...to a certain extent is not a good thing."

  The brain is implanted with a chip, which means that everyone is his puppet.

   “Yeah, we realized it later.”

The body of consciousness continued to narrate: "After the chip implantation plan was launched by Yalom VII, even the people around him felt panic... The war of resistance lasted for decades. The secret door left by the scientist was finally triggered, the super machine stopped moving, and Yarom was caught by soldiers the next day, dragged into the street and killed.

   But the peace did not last long.

  The imperial majesty exists in every intelligent machine, and it still executes the orders of Yalom VII.

  The war between the Maien people and the intelligent machines broke out...

  Thousands of years later, the war ended, and the Mayen people cleaned up all the mechanical bodies and locked up the empire's majesty.

   Its repositories store a large amount of historical materials before the war, including many literary works created by people who resisted Yalom.

   Soon after, scientists modified it to make it friendly and no longer aggressive. After repeated tests, it was released to the public and named "Peace". "

"The war is over, and the technology of the Mayen people has been developed again. We can easily go anywhere, transform the space-time membrane, create items that were unimaginable before, and even our bodies have become extremely powerful. We only need energy to Survive all the time, the boundaries of gender are broken, many people are born without gender, can be male, female, or whatever gender you want to be.

   After another long period of time, technology has reached its end, our science has stagnated, and many scholars have begun to study things that do not exist, and publish some strange research.

  For example, virtual network, mathematics, memory, four-dimensional space, five-dimensional world...

  Many technologies cannot be verified at all. Scholars can only let the computer simulate and get the results, and then publish them eagerly to gain the attention of the society. "

The conscious body showed a smile: "People at that time responded with a mocking attitude towards these scientists, which was a waste of spar. Of course, the scientists themselves knew that their research results were useless, they just researched them, published them, and stuffed the data into them. In the database of the super mechanical body 'Peace'.

  The society at that time was permeated with an absurd and decadent atmosphere, people pursued all new things, and dreamed of life and death in the virtual network.

   Such absurdity lasted until a sociologist named Karoqi appeared.

  He was originally just a very ordinary person. At that time, everyone in our society was an artist and a scientist, and no one needed to work.

   Karoqi is ordinary, but he wants to be famous. "

  The narration of the conscious body seems to have entered a calm period. Xia Shumin, who was nervous about the war before, picked up his cup and took a sip of tea.

   "What did he do?"

  Mu Xiaoxiao asked.

   "He did nothing but lied."

   "Lying?"

"right."

The conscious body said: "Karoch wanted to be famous, but he didn't have the talent, so he kept thinking, thinking and thinking, and finally one day, he got inspiration from the spar, so he forged a survey data and posted it on the Internet , saying that less than half of the crystals in our world are left, and calling on everyone to save energy."

"Hahaha."

  Chen Ji couldn't help laughing, and Zhou Wan and the others couldn't help laughing either.

  The conscious body also smiled, then glanced at the villagers, and soon sighed again.

  Chen Ji also stopped smiling.

   This thing is funny, but not funny.

  Consciousness continued:

   "In Karoqi's view, the world is so big that it is impossible to investigate the spar reserves clearly. He just wants to gain attention and get some research funds from the country.

  People laughed at him at first, thinking that there was no need to worry at all, and the spar couldn't be consumed so quickly, even after going through those wars.

   Karoqi won funding.

  Ten years later, he and some scientists came up with a report showing that at least one-tenth of the spar in our world has been consumed.

   It’s not half, but it’s already a frightening number.

  At that time, the civilization of the Maien people had only experienced one million years. "

   A million years.

   Not too little, but the spar consumed is still amazing.

   "The war consumed too much?" Chen Ji asked.

   "War is part of the factor, and part of the reason is that the scientists who made the calculations did not consider that the population of our world will become so large, and war will become so terrible."

  Consciousness continued: "People panicked about this, and after a lot of discussion, we made several decisions.

   One is to find ways to increase crystals, the other is to find ways to prevent the crystals from losing energy, and the third is to reduce the use of energy.

  But none of these decisions worked. Instead, some people went to extremes and began to kill consciously.

   Our society is in turmoil. After realizing the shortage of resources, people's competition for spar has become more intense, and war broke out again.

  This time, the intensity of the war was extremely terrifying. The space-time membrane was pierced in batches, the sky and the earth shattered and collapsed, and the war was carried out by destroying the lives and living space of others.

   By the time the war was over, our population had been reduced by more than half. "

  This time the body of consciousness did not describe the process and duration of the war in detail, but summarized it with the cruel population reduction.

  Chen Ji can roughly guess how many people died. The 100 light-year Maien world has a total population of at least one billion billion. One can imagine how cruel this war is.

   "We draw only one conclusion from this war:

   War is not a catalyst for technology. "

   Maien's consciousness said calmly: "When a world's technology has developed to the limit, war will not bring any change to technology.

   After we repaired the space-time membrane, we checked our spar again and found that the total amount of spar in the whole world has dropped to one-third of the original.

  People began to reflect on the war, and decided to destroy all war weapons, and instead fully supported the research of technology, trying to find a way to increase the reserves of spar. "

"We re-examined our technology, civilization, society, etc., retrieved the data lost for many years from the super machine 'Peace', and upgraded it again, named it 'Void Exploration', expecting it to make Ma Ian's technology has made a breakthrough."

   "Is that super machine still there?"

  Chen Ji was a little surprised, and glanced at the quiet Maien.

   "Yes. It's still there."

  The conscious body smiled slightly, "The super machine stores a large amount of data and is scattered all over the world, so even after going through war, its data is still well preserved."

   "We looked at all the previous technologies, and a theorem that we knew a long time ago but never paid attention to was re-dug out."

   "This theorem is: the color of the spar changes forever."

  Chen Ji nodded, expressing his understanding of what this law represents, then turned his head and said to Zhou Wan and Mu Xiaoxiao: "It's very similar to the second law of thermodynamics."

  They all learned the knowledge of earth science and what the laws of thermodynamics are.

  As for Astana and Xia Shumin, they could only look at each other now.

  The second law of thermodynamics, heat can only spontaneously transfer from a high-temperature object to a low-temperature object, and vice versa.

  In the world of Maien, the change in the color of the spar also represents the change in energy.

   "Does the earth have such laws?"

After the conscious body asked clearly, he couldn't help but sigh: "In fact, we have known for a long time that the color change of the spar will only proceed in a fixed order, from colorful to monochromatic, and from monochromatic to white, until all energy is lost. , turned into useless black soil.

   But we don't care about it all the time, because we have too many crystals, so we don't need to worry about energy.

   Until after that war, scientists shifted their research focus to here again.

  People have gradually realized that when we use energy to make crystals, the ratio of consumption to output is always greater than 1! We spend two parts of energy to get one part of the energy stored in the spar, and the rest of the energy is lost. "

   "..."

  Chen Ji was speechless for a while.

  The Maien people, whose technology has developed to an extremely high level, have just realized that perpetual motion machines cannot be created.

   But it doesn't seem to blame them either.

   They have this theoretical basis, but no one cares, because they have countless crystals to squander!

   When they cared about energy consumption, they confirmed that the perpetual motion machine could not be built.

   It's not that their technology is not good, but their world limits the perpetual motion machine. If you want to make spar, you have to spend more energy.

   But their crystals are constantly decreasing.

   "Scientists are going crazy with the laws of spar color."

The body of consciousness continued: "No matter what method we use, we cannot reverse this law. We can reduce the friction to an extremely low level, build the machine more delicately, put the laboratory in the subspace, or even introduce the space-time membrane, etc., all of which cannot be reversed. the law.

Fortunately, we can also recover energy from the air. Scientists have begun to appeal to the Maien people to start farming again. Yes, we have found that plants are the most convenient and beautiful way to collect energy. It is not the most efficient, but But it is the most unpretentious way! "

"Ha ha."

  Chen Ji couldn't help laughing, and even Xia Shumin, who didn't quite understand, covered his mouth and started laughing.

  The powerful Maien people have returned to farming after tens of millions of development.

   "We finally breathed a sigh of relief."

  The conscious body said with a smile: "We recalculated the spar reserves and found that there were not so many spar reserves in the past. With the increase in population and the development of science and technology, the consumption rate has already increased many times.

   Recalculating, our spar will be used up in less than 100 million years.

   Fortunately, we can recover energy from the air.

  The problem of energy seems to be solved, and people's life becomes the same as before except for farming.

   We have experienced war, peace, war, peace, and history repeats itself.

   It wasn’t until our world was unified again that scientists checked the spar reserves again, only to find that less than one-tenth of our spar was left.

  People who reflect on the war panic again and call on scientists to find a solution as soon as possible. Spar is still our most important source of energy. Spar is necessary to maintain the developed society of the Maien people.

  Scientists decided to build metal plates that collect energy from the air and directly produce spars, and put them in various parts of the world.

  The situation has been temporarily relieved.

   It was peace again. When people reflected on the war again, they found that the efficiency of making crystals from metal plates was getting lower and lower. The price of crystals was getting higher and higher, and the price of goods was also rising rapidly. Many people were forced to start working to survive.

  People protest, people start wars, compete for spar, grab land...

  History repeats itself, and reflection will only bring about the next reflection. "

  The deep voice of the conscious body spread.

  He talked about countless years of history in one breath, which is very long, but it doesn't seem heavy, because it keeps repeating.

  Xia Shumin understood these words, people who read history books will only find what they want from history books, and the change of dynasty has never changed.

  "Many years later, a person named Maien unified the world and gained the highest power in our country as a consul."

   Everyone was refreshed, and Ma Yien appeared? !

  This name is not only the name of the girl around Chen Ji, but also the name of this civilization, which is enough to show its importance to the Mayen people.

  Maien’s consciousness body has never mentioned this name before, and there is a high probability that “Maien” comes from this person.
