Chapter 523 Charging Technology
Energy crystals are undoubtedly an extremely important non-renewable strategic resource for the Gemini civilization.
As an ultra-high-density energy storage medium, its energy density far exceeds that of all known substances, including nuclear fuel.
This cannot be explained by existing physics at all, so some people speculate that the legendary space technology is 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 the miniaturization of weapons and the enhancement of battery life.
Its discovery and mining, to Gemini, is like the application of fossil fuels on Earth, which greatly accelerated the technological development of civilization.
To increase the power of weapons, increase the exploration distance of the Star Fleet, and shorten the voyage time, energy crystals have an irreplaceable catalytic effect on the history of the interstellar development of the Gemini civilization!
Because of the important strategic role of energy crystals, ordinary civilizations would never trade such important things as trade goods in large quantities.
Even though the trade goods this time are based on energy crystals as the basic pricing method, the two parties only use 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 Black Butler.
"Of course, according to the designated trading rules of our allies, the way of selling special commodities such as energy crystals needs to be differentiated separately. If you want to buy energy crystals, then the only designated exchange item is...'blank crystal'!"
"Blank crystal?!" All the experts behind Alsace couldn't help but exclaimed in unison.
Blank crystal, this is not a rare cosmic mineral, on the contrary, in the Gemini civilization, it is a kind of "waste" that cannot be used.
Because... it is the residue after the energy crystal is exhausted!
Ordinary energy crystals are ruby-like red transparent crystals. When the energy in them is gradually released, its color will gradually fade until it becomes a completely transparent "blank crystal".
What surprised everyone was naturally not that the other party needed this kind of waste as a condition of exchange, but rather some kind of amazing information contained in this condition...
"You... have you mastered the charging technology of the blank crystal?" An expert couldn't help but wondered.
The blank crystal is a kind of waste for the Gemini civilization, because the Gemini cannot use it, but the Ante Empire will never be aimless, and this kind of thing obviously has a certain collection value.
Combined with the opponent's strange behavior of exchanging energy crystals for blank crystals, the final answer is ready...
Nie Yun has indeed mastered the blank crystal charging technique!
And this... is also the final product carefully prepared by Nie Yun for Gemini!
When he first discovered the remnants of energy crystals on the moon, facing the huge threat of the twin stars, Nie Yun's research on energy crystals mainly focused on how to use this high-density energy in military technology.
In the follow-up research, Yu Lao and others led the research and development of energy crystals to the field of "art"...
cough cough!Of course, it cannot be denied that both sides have achieved remarkable results and achieved certain scientific research results.
Facts have proved that the ultra-high instantaneous output capability of energy crystals is a perfect match with powerful energy superconducting materials such as mechanical bugs. The terrifying lethality of the Mithril fleet was fully revealed in the Proximity Galaxy War!
The research of Yu Lao and others is also progressing gratifyingly. It is said that they have developed a fancy "energy crystal bomb" that can eject energy shock waves in a directional and quantitative manner by combining force field technology...
However, Nie Yun's development and utilization of energy crystals has only been a year, and it is still in the stage of small-scale application. So until the recent war started, with the massive application and consumption of energy crystals, the number of blank crystals Nie Yun has on hand is increasing. After a long time, he turned his attention to this kind of "non-recyclable garbage".
For the use of blank crystals, the most valuable is undoubtedly the repeated charging technology!
If this disposable battery can be turned into a rechargeable battery, then the energy crystal can be almost used as an inexhaustible conventional energy source, and the strategic value will be multiplied countless times immediately!
However, judging from the information obtained by Gemini, they have basically made no progress in the development of this technology.
In the entire interior of Gemini, the blank crystals have not found any effective use value so far, and 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, Gemini surpasses its own scientific and technological conditions, and has made no progress in researching energy crystals for so many years. Nie Yun doesn't think that with his current scientific research strength, he can catch up with the other party in a short period of time.
But by accident, Yu Lao said almost habitually, "Why don't you try Mithril material?" to remind Nie Yun directly.
In one's own forces, if there is anything that can directly affect the strange objects of the universe, it seems that there are only mechanical bugs that are also suspected of being strange objects of the universe.
Whether it is the synthesis of fine slag particles into a complete energy crystal block, or the "vampire serum" obtained after mixing with the water of life, it undoubtedly shows the unique ability of the mechanical insects to transform the two items.
Then Nie Yun experimented with the blank crystal with mechanical bugs...
The final experimental results are undoubtedly surprising!
The mechanical bug can really use its own internal energy to charge the blank crystal!
Although the energy storage capacity of mechanical bugs is far less than that of energy crystals, even if they spend all they have, they can only make a small piece of blank crystal show a faint red trace, but the energy has indeed entered the blank crystal...
That is to say, as long as the mechanical bug is provided with a steady stream of energy, it can act as a special "transformer" to charge the energy crystal!
This discovery made Nie Yun ecstatic.
But... the time of happiness is short. Just when Nie Yun thought that he was about to get rich overnight and was sitting on the endless energy crystal, the follow-up experiment poured a basin of cold water on Nie Yun.
Because after three times of repeated charging, this blank crystal actually directly shattered into a pile of white powder, even the mechanical bugs couldn't put it back together again.
Accident?
Maybe it was because the mechanical bug's movements were too rough?
Ok!definitely is!
Mechanical bug: "..." (‵o′) convex
Undeterred, Nie Yun did several experiments again, but to his disappointment, no matter how gentle the charging process was, the result was still the same every time.
An energy crystal can only be recharged three times at most before it can't be used again.
Obviously, although this charging method can charge blank crystals, every repeated flushing of energy will cause certain damage to the energy storage structure of the energy crystal itself.
After a maximum of three times, the energy crystal whose internal structure has been completely destroyed will disintegrate by itself.
Nie Yun finally had to accept the cruel reality depressed.
He felt as if he had won "one more bottle" three times in a row. Just when he thought he had won the "God's Blessing" of "one more bottle" in a row, the evil "Thank you for your patronage!" appeared on the next bottle... …
The ups and downs of life are so exciting...
