Chapter 738 The All-Powerful Factory is Completed, Virtual Reality Online Game

Lin Mo deeply agreed.

Many people used to think that scientific research was something only a few geniuses could do.

But the Great Xia Dynasty is not like that now.

As technology advances rapidly, the talent shortage will also increase exponentially.

If Great Xia wants to become an interstellar civilization, it cannot rely on a few scientists to drag the entire civilization forward.

Everyone has to keep up.

However, Da Xia did not force everyone to become machines that only know how to work.

With the integration of brain-computer interface technology and holographic imaging technology, a holographic online game called "Star Wars" was officially launched.

It was jointly developed by the Great Xia military and the Academy of Sciences. On the surface, it is a game, but at its core, it incorporates a large number of real battlefield models.

Players can pilot mechs, control unmanned combat vehicles, command fleets, and fight against demons in simulated battlefields.

The demon units inside are not fabricated out of thin air, but are modeled based on data collected from three fronts: Earth, Terra, and Kona.

Demons, hounds, corruptors, heavily armored demon soldiers, winged demons, gargoyles, giant burrowing dragons, demon-eyed beasts, liches, and even demon lords and demon gods, all have corresponding simulated versions in the game.

Even the latest update includes a new map featuring the Kona civilization, which has excited netizens immensely.

As a result, the Great Xia in the game was invaded by the artificial intelligence of the Kona civilization due to the improper handling by netizens, and was almost wiped out and turned into a wasteland world.

This made everyone realize that interstellar civilizations are not necessarily friendly, as one might assume.

If you dare to expose a weakness, and the benefits of invading outweigh the drawbacks, why won't the other side attack?

Only then did I realize how fraught with peril the Great Xia had been in establishing friendly cooperation with the Terra and Kona civilizations.

At first, many people genuinely treated it as entertainment.

But as you play with it, the taste just doesn't feel right.

Someone achieved an exceptionally impressive record in the mech mode and was marked by the military's reserve system.

Some people performed amazingly well in the unmanned swarm command mode and received an online invitation from the Tactical Academy the next day.

Another group of players who were originally just ordinary workers honed their skills in the maintenance engineering mode and then passed the heavy robot maintenance exam.

When Lin Mo saw the relevant report, he couldn't help but say:

"This game is just a training exercise disguised as entertainment."

He went in and played there, and was amazed. With the holographic technology, it truly felt like being there.

Although the textures and smells are unrealistic, it's already pretty amazing.

Old Zhao said calmly:

"The entertainment is real, and so is the training."

"Everyone needs a place to relax."

"But if the Great Xia is to enter the interstellar age in the future, ordinary people also need to know in advance that the universe is not a romantic story, but a battlefield."

This statement immediately created a tense atmosphere in the meeting room.

Yes.

The interstellar age is not about poetry and distant places.

Terra is on the verge of extinction due to the relentless oppression of the demon race, and the Kona civilization has been reduced to nothing but its home planet by the demon race!

It is also because Earth was forced to fight the demons through a wormhole in space, and the coordinates of a civilized planet could be found by enemies from another world at any time!

The real purpose of letting the people of Daxia play "Star Wars" was to let everyone get used to it in advance.

Adapting to mechs, spaceships, unmanned legions, and the logic of warfare on a cosmic scale.

When civilization truly takes its first steps, at least we won't be completely in the dark.

Han Niba then opened the last project progress report.

This time, the screen showed the spaceship docks of thirty-six underground cities.

In each dock, a large spaceship is taking shape.

The massive keel structure hangs on the assembly platform, and engineering robots crawl all over the hull like ants.

The multi-functional factory continuously churns out standard modules, which are then transported to the dock by the transportation system for splicing, welding, testing, and debugging.

Lin Mo's eyes changed as he looked at the massive, soon-to-be-completed ships.

These are the giant deep-space ships that Great Xia is building one after another.

Qian Zhenhua said:

"All thirty-six underground city docks have been completed."

"With the help of the all-purpose factory, the construction speed of each ship is faster than originally planned."

"In another six months, including the Kona base and the moon, the first batch of thirty-eight large spaceships will be rolled off the production line and launched into space."

Many people in the conference room were breathing heavily.

Thirty-eight large spacecraft.

The Great Xia Dynasty no longer had only the Kuafu, a solitary experimental ship.

Once these ships take off, Great Xia will possess the rudiments of a true deep-space fleet.

Even though it is still very immature, and even though it cannot compare with the peak of the Kona civilization, it has already taken the most crucial step from scratch.

But that's not the most important thing.

Qian Zhenhua raised his hand and swiped, and the spaceship dock model on the screen disappeared, replaced by a super industrial base so huge that its boundaries were almost invisible.

Super multi-functional factory!

Thirty-six small, multi-functional factories have completed the manufacturing of all its parts in the past six months.

Today, this true planetary-level industrial heart has completed its main assembly.

In a few days, it will complete its final debugging and officially go into production.

Its first task has already been determined.

Producing planetary engine components.

When the model of the planetary engine, which was ten kilometers high and had a chassis diameter of thirty kilometers, reappeared on the screen, no one in the conference room could remain completely calm.

Even if they had seen it more than once.

But every time Lin Mo saw this thing, he had only one thought in his mind.

Da Xia is truly insane, and truly daring.

Ten thousand planetary engines.

What they will do in the future is to propel Blue Star and take humanity out of the solar system!

Qian Zhenhua looked at the countdown on the screen and slowly began to speak:

"After the super universal factory goes into production, the planetary engine project will officially enter the physical construction phase."

"From that moment on, there was no turning back for Great Xia."

Everyone knew what the other person was referring to.

That was a migration of civilizations.

Just then, someone received the message and exclaimed with delight:

"Report!"

"A message has been sent from the Super All-Purpose Factory Debugging Center."

"The first main production line has successfully completed production testing ahead of schedule!"

Everyone in the meeting room looked up at the same time.

The home screen image changes instantly.

Deep within the massive, all-purpose factory, a production line stretching for several kilometers slowly lit up.

The furnace is ignited, the robotic arm unfolds, the conveyor belt starts, and the detection array is calibrated layer by layer.

The first batch of ultra-large alloy components for planetary engine bases are slowly taking shape on the production line.

The countdown to Blue Star's departure has officially begun.

........

As soon as the super-powerful factory image on the main screen went dark, another silver-white celestial cross-section slowly unfolded.

That's the moon.

This time, however, what everyone saw was not the desolate and lifeless lunar surface, but an underground city that had been driven deep into the lunar crust.

Lin Mo looked at the cross-sectional diagram, his eyes narrowing slightly.
