Minke's black technology

Chapter 459 Shield Test
The R&D and manufacturing of the energy shield went very smoothly, as simple as it came naturally.

After all, its main body is the curvature engine. You only need to install a shield generator on the spacecraft to guide the energy of the curvature engine, stop the jump process and keep the engine running.

"In this way, wouldn't all spaceships be equipped with shields?" asked the military boss.

"It is true in theory!" Li Maoye replied.

"Can you put a limit on this so that the curvature engine on the warship can only generate energy shields?"

"This is not impossible, then we have to develop two curvature engines!"

After thinking about it for a while, Li Maoye understood the intentions of the big bosses in the army. In the future, the spaceships of flower planters will definitely be equipped with curvature engines as standard, so energy shields will not work well as the military's secret weapon.

At least in the last ten years or so, energy shields must not be allowed to enter the civilian market, and even equipment that can jump beyond the speed of light such as curvature engines must be strictly controlled.

"Or reduce the power of the civilian engine and the strength of the shield!" The military leader suggested.

Li Maoye turned his neck and replied quickly: "That's even simpler. You only need to develop a special curvature engine and shield generator, and you can use different specifications of product equipment to limit..."

To put it simply, this is the so-called castrated version of the curvature engine. As for how many things need to be castrated, it depends on what the military wants to limit.

The bald man said it simply, but for the R&D personnel below, this is simply a big problem. After all, the principle of the curvature engine is unknown to them, and no one can think of a way to castrate and delete it.

The technical requirements that need to be used are very huge, but judging from what the boss said, it shouldn't be difficult to do it.

"By the way, can the energy shield be miniaturized?" the military boss asked.

"Of course, do you want to use it on mechas and fighters?" Li Maoye immediately guessed what the other party was thinking. In fact, this castrated version of the curvature engine can continue to be castrated until it can be installed on mechas or fighters. until.

However, Li Maoye doesn't have the extra energy to develop this kind of thing now, and maybe it can be handed over to other researchers, but I'm afraid it will take a long time.

The big man in the army is satisfied when he learns that it can be miniaturized. As for when it will be available, he is not in a hurry and wants it right away.

At present, the full version of the energy shield generator has been produced. As for when the castrated version will be produced, there is no need to rush to do it. The key is to test it first.

The military leaders are very interested in this concept weapon, and they keep urging the Meow Star Laboratory to take the samples for testing. Of course, the army will also send people to assist.

After going through the last procedure to confirm that there is no problem with the shield generator, it finally entered the field test stage. The florists did not place the test site in the solar system, but specially let the paving machine spacecraft jump in a random direction, and then in four or five light Set up teleportation points in galaxies beyond the year.

After confirming that there is no problem with the galaxy over there, send more than a dozen spaceships to this strange galaxy together through the transmission orbit, and then start the actual combat test of the energy shield here.

The energy shield provided by the curvature engine is actually a space folding technology, which can isolate the spaceship from the real space, making the impact of the outside world on the spaceship almost zero.

However, this energy shield also has a defense upper limit. Every time it is attacked by the outside world, it will affect the space according to different attack methods and strengths, and then feed back to the curvature engine and shield generator, as long as it is not overloaded all of a sudden and causes breakdown Energy shield, theoretically this shield can resist most attacks.

Generally speaking, the energy shield is immune to physical attacks, but it cannot be immune to the attacks of energy weapons, so even if the energy shield cannot be penetrated, it can still consume the opponent's energy through continuous attacks.

Even if cold fusion technology is used to provide energy, the energy system of the spacecraft will also have an energy supply limit, so every energy attack will cause the energy of the spacecraft to decrease. When it drops from 100% to zero, that is when the energy shield fails .

After entering the official test, the spacecraft equipped with the energy shield generator immediately activated the device, and saw the oval shield generator emit bright light, and then a translucent yellow energy shield expanded outwards from it.

The generation time of the energy shield is very short, very high-level people can hardly feel the shield pass through the body, and they have not observed the process of it growing from small to large.

However, all these scenes were recorded by the scientific observation ship next to them. Even though the high-frequency camera was not able to capture the moment when the shield was produced, people finally knew how the shield was produced through the calculation of the data in the instrument.

"The reactor is running stably!"

"The curvature engine is working normally, and there is no space jump phenomenon!"

"The shield generator is running stably, and the current energy is 100%!"

……

The staff on the shield test spacecraft reported the situation one after another, and after the test headquarters confirmed that everything was safe, they entered the next test step.

I saw a space warship next to it turned its muzzle and fired an electromagnetic gun near the shield test spacecraft. According to calculations, it should have passed the edge of the spacecraft. Before confirming whether the shield function is normal, be careful. That's right.

Everyone did not go to see the shield test spacecraft in space, but stared closely at the instruments in front of them, or simply watched the computer simulation process. Only by simulating the data collected by the instruments can people clearly see the process of the shield taking effect .

"Ready! Launch!"

I saw that when the projectile of the electromagnetic gun approached the shield of the spaceship, the projectile suddenly flashed, and flew over the edge of the spaceship without hindrance, and then when it left the shield, the projectile also flashed for a while, without being shielded in the middle The look of influence.

"Did the test fail?" asked someone from the other ship.

"Not sure, the experts are analyzing the results!" someone replied.

In the scene just now, apart from the two flashes of the projectile, the energy shield seemed to be pierced, without any resistance to it.

The staff on the shield test spacecraft submitted the data of the attack just now. According to the instrument records on the spacecraft, when attacked by the electromagnetic cannon projectile, the energy shield did not respond at all, and the shield energy did not even appear to decrease.

"The shield didn't work?"

"Maybe? Anyway, this is the first test, and it's normal to have some problems in the middle!"

Maybe this person wanted to express optimism, but this surprised others. If the black technology products provided by the bald guy can't pass the first test, he is unlikely to throw something out.

According to the old staff of Meow Star Laboratory, Academician Li will completely solve the problems and bugs before the product enters the test. Even if there is a problem during the test, it is caused by the tester himself.

So the experts who accompanied the team to test began to analyze what they did not do right, and even removed the shield generator and reinstalled it, so as not to make mistakes in the equipment circuit.

After a lot of tossing, they still couldn't find any problems.

At this time, someone suggested: "Since there is no problem, it means that the test is normal. If you are not sure, I suggest directly aiming at the tail of the test spacecraft to see if the shield will block the projectile!"

This suggestion is very bold, but it is based on the judgment that the bald man will not make mistakes. It is logically reasonable and convincing.

But if you really want to test, you still have to evacuate the humans on the shield test spacecraft, leaving only the intelligent AI robot to assist in the test.

This is impossible!

Now human beings' space weapons are very powerful. If the ability shield does not take effect, there is a high probability that the spaceship will be pierced by one shot, and it may even be destroyed by one shot.

That being the case, safety first and testing second.

First evacuate the humans on the spaceship to other spaceships, and then order the intelligent robot on the spaceship to turn on the shield generator, so that the entire spaceship is once again surrounded by a light yellow translucent energy shield.

After confirming that everyone has no problem, the very outside fired an electromagnetic cannon again, this time aiming at the body of the spaceship. Although it belongs to the unimportant tail of the spaceship, if it is hit by a shell, it will definitely penetrate. , As for whether it will lead to greater damage, no one dares to guarantee it.

There was a flash of light from the muzzle, which was the light when the projectile was accelerated to the extreme in the electromagnetic field and left the muzzle, and then it flew to the target at a speed invisible to human eyes.

I saw that the projectile seemed to pass through half of the phantom, and passed through the shield test spacecraft. Other phenomena were the same as the first test, and the energy data on the spacecraft also showed that this attack had no effect at all.

"Look, did you see it? Everyone!"

"The projectile actually passed through!"

"No wonder there is no impact at all. It turns out that the space between the projectile and the spaceship does not overlap!"

Most of the experts who came to test this time are from the Meow Star Laboratory. They have studied the curvature engine for a long time. Even if they don't really understand the working principle, they have summed up a lot of effective experience.

Since the shield generator works through the curvature engine, it can use existing research inferences to explain the phenomenon in front of it. The key is that the bald man also gave a lot of hints.

"It must be the curvature engine that folded the space where the spaceship is located. Although it seems to us that when the projectile hit the spaceship, their positions have overlapped, but in fact the two are in different spaces, so the magical scene just now appeared. !"

"Not only the space of the spaceship itself is folded, but the space where the energy shield is located is actually folded, and this folding will make the spaceship almost immune to all physical attacks!"

"At present, it seems that this is the only way to explain it!"

Everyone felt that it was not enough to test only once or twice, and it was necessary to test several times to get accurate data, so other spacecraft were also added to the test, and the parts of the spacecraft attacked this time were not restricted.

I saw the test spacecraft wrapped in a light yellow translucent energy shield. Under the siege of five warships, the surface of the shield continuously shone brightly. This is a phenomenon that occurred after the projectile overlapped with the energy shield.

According to the instrument data on the shield test spacecraft, the super powerful electromagnetic gun has the least impact on the energy shield. Continuous firing of hundreds of projectiles cannot reduce the energy of the spacecraft by one percent.

"Energy will definitely be lost, but compared to the energy consumption of maintaining the energy shield, the attack of the electromagnetic gun is not even scratching the itch!" The experts concluded and analyzed.

No wonder the spacecraft is not afraid of colliding with space planets during the curvature jump process. It turns out that they are not in the same space at all, so the spacecraft is not afraid of physical obstacles such as space dust, meteorites, and asteroids when the curvature jumps.

"Nearly immune to physical attack!" the expert wrote in his notes.

However, this is only one of the steps in the testing phase. There are still many attack methods that need to be tested, such as the laser energy cannon. Judging from various data, the energy shield will definitely be affected by the laser cannon.

In fact, this is true. When the shield test spacecraft was attacked by the laser cannon, the laser cannon was blocked by the energy shield, and a blue light shone on the light yellow shield.

This time the laser cannon didn't pass through the body like the electromagnetic cannon. It was completely blocked by the shield, so that the spacecraft itself had no effect at all.

At the same time, the energy on the shield test spacecraft continued to drop, and when all the spacecraft were added to the attack test, the energy shield dropped even faster.

"Well, it can withstand very high-intensity laser cannon attacks!"

"Yes, judging from the rate of energy decline in the shield test, it will take a long time to overload the energy system even if the attack power of the laser cannon is increased by a hundred times..."

For such a long period of time, the spaceship has long been able to escape the encirclement by means of curvature jumps, and can make an effective counterattack even if it does not escape.

"With the energy shield, the spacecraft will be very difficult to destroy!" The experts said happily.

Only in this way, the human space warship is not that the spear is stronger than the shield, but completely reversed, the shield is far stronger than the spear, so that a spaceship with an energy shield can slaughter an ordinary space army!

"Continue to test other weapons?" the test director said.

This time we are going to test particle weapons. According to weapon experts, particle weapons can cause damage to energy shields just like laser weapons, but whether the attack effect is stronger than laser weapons can only be determined after testing.

"Particle weapon, launch!"

In the computer simulation screen, a mass of white light ball-like matter is ejected from the muzzle of the particle weapon, and when it hits the energy shield, it shines like a laser cannon.

Under the particle cannon attack of the space battleship, the shield test spacecraft was greatly affected. It can greatly reduce the shield energy, which is much more efficient than the laser cannon attack!
