Will the out-of-control servitor meet the cosmic cat?

However, compared to the short-range electromagnetic gun + particle cannon, she still prefers the sniper laser that can kill enemies thousands of miles away.

"You can kill the enemy without injury from a long distance, why do you have to fight for your life at close range?"

Based on this guiding ideology, Hong's technological route went further and further on the road of sniping.

In addition, since the flagship has already entered service, it is natural that it cannot be called an experimental type every day. After searching in ancient books, she finally chose a very good name and solemnly gave it to this super battleship.

It's not the kind of excellence of "single push human level", but a real, excellent level name with very historical meaning.

White Death.

This is the code name of a legendary sniper from a former enemy country before Catus completed the global unification. In just one year, she shot and killed 542 soldiers of the Union with a single rifle, becoming Catus The most killed sniper in history.

Even though Katus was finally unified by the alliance, the alliance did not cover up the achievements of this enemy, but recorded them completely, thus establishing her title as the number one legendary sniper of Katus .

Her name is transliterated.

"Simon Goodye"

Hong murmured the name.

This is also the reason why Hong didn't use her name, but chose her code name as the name of the class - no matter how deep the historical origin is, the name Haoye class sounds too stupid.

"I remember, didn't some historian suggest changing the name to Simon Haye?"

Bai asked suspiciously.

Even though she is a Jeffrey naturalized midway, she knows more about the history of Catus than the average Catus.

For example, a certain girl who does not want to be named and starts with Xi.

With her outstanding talent and hard work, almost all of her electives have obtained full marks for graduation, from orbital mechanics, introduction to space warfare and other space warfare-related subjects, to liberal arts subjects such as the history and culture of Catus She can learn all the courses with unimaginable efficiency.

If it weren't for Hong's obstruction, she would even go to a postgraduate degree in psychology under the premise of having so many classes.

The reason for blocking is simple, if the kids are going to graduate school out of interest, then she will definitely give them great support.

But the purpose of Bai's study of psychology is not out of interest, but the strange reason of "to prevent Hong from getting bored with her" - in her opinion, after studying psychology as a graduate student, she will be able to get along with Hong. In daily interactions, he appears to be more obedient and more understanding.

To put it simply, it is to please Hong and make Hong pay more attention to her.

Hong would definitely not be willing now—as an omnic, it was normal for her to cater to the mood of the cubs, and there was no reason for the cubs to try to please her.

It was after this incident that she opened up the function of one-on-one escort, arranging a special body that "belongs to her" for the cubs in need, so as to avoid their sense of loss that they "don't value them".

In the end, good guy, within a few days, almost everyone applied for one, and only then did she realize how much they depended on her.

The reason for "almost" is not because there are cubs who are self-reliant and self-reliant, but because they have a couple. A couple is two people, and it is enough to apply for one. This is the reason why Hong did not reach 100% Covered achievements.

By the way, these cubs are all females.

"Someone proposed to translate it into Simon Starfish." Hong spread his hands, looking very helpless, "Since the final official name is good, we can only respect history."

"Speaking of which, didn't you say that you wanted to be the commander of the fleet for me? Why are you starting to study for a Ph.D. in particle physics?"

She rubbed the soft white ears of the other party and asked.

"Because, after thinking about it, the commander of the fleet wants to go out to fight." She narrowed her eyes comfortably. Although the tail cultures of Jeffery and Katus are very different, the ears are still the same, "In that case I can't be with you every day."

"Okay." She sighed and continued to smooth her hair.

Today's Hong has basically given up trying to make the cubs less clingy to her - a little distance, and she will immediately think that she has done something wrong to make Hong angry, and come to her with tears in her eyes.

No matter how much determination was made beforehand, once seeing this scene, Hong's defense was broken in seconds.

Think of it as a social characteristic of the same ethnic group - and, emotional dependence is dependent, it will not affect the usual life, and Hong will let them go.

"If you study physics, you can see Hong in the laboratory with me every day, and you can share any progress with you as soon as possible." She showed a happy smile, "This kind of life is what I prefer. want."

Yes, in particle physics, which she is majoring in now, she is already many years ahead of other cubs. She has successfully graduated with a Ph.D. and has reached the point where she can study with Hong.

Instead of using the small accelerator in the underground city with a circumference of only more than 300 kilometers to do some enlightenment research like "hands-on experiments for primary school students", I really participated in Hong's research on frontier physics.

Seeing Bai's heartfelt smile, what else could she say?

"Besides, research is indeed one of my hobbies." She took Hong's hand and looked straight into Hong's eyes solemnly, "Isn't this the best of both worlds?"

"That's naturally the best." After the supercomputer confirmed that Bai was telling the truth through micro-expression comparison, she also showed a faint smile.

As long as the cub is happy.

Volume 64 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Infighting

Walking on the streets of the dungeon with one person and one machine, the "sunshine" of the giant artificial canopy swayed on the ground, as if everything was shrouded in a warm and comfortable light.

The ornamental plants that have undergone strict inspection to ensure that they will not have any adverse effects on the Jeffreys are swaying in the flower beds on both sides of the street. The breeze from the atmospheric circulation device blows over Bai's cheeks, and the faint fragrance can be faintly smelled.

"Red is really powerful."

Although he has lived here for a long time, Bai still can't help sighing whenever he feels the "artificial" side of this livable environment.

"That is."

With her hands on her hips, Hong looked very arrogant—in this regard, she was never humble.

I am super good!

An underground city covering an area of ​​[-] square kilometers, a space hook with a height of tens of thousands of kilometers, and a superparticle collider orbiting the planet—just pick them out, they are all huge projects that conventional civilization can only daunt.

For ordinary organic civilizations, although they also have the technology to build these giant buildings, due to various problems unique to organic biological societies, they usually only stay on paper in the end.

Just like the Universal Particle Collider, from the perspective of technology and construction, civilizations in the pre-space age can complete this facility, at best, it is less efficient and more costly.

But unfortunately, although Hong has a deep affection for the cubs, so that Aiwu and Wudi have a lot of favorability bonuses for the organisms, she still has to be outspoken in this regard.

The internal friction of organic civilization is really too serious.

It does not refer to the loss caused by internal wars, but rather, the existence of appropriate wars is conducive to the development of conventional organic civilization.

Note that it is limited to conventional organic civilizations, and does not take effect on theoretically existing Gestalt civilizations, nor does it take effect on omnic civilizations such as red.

The reason is simple. For a civilization like the Alliance, proper war is more beneficial to its overall efficient development than peace.

For them, they are willing to make a little effort only when they encounter threats from the outside world. If they maintain a unified peace, they will be content with the status quo, indulge in introversion, and consume a huge number of people in the Internet, service industries, etc. that are important to civilization. Developing an industry that doesn't help much.

It is really a huge amount, because their economic system is still at the point of using "currency", so to some extent, their economic proportion can be calculated simply based on the gross domestic product.

By the way, the economic system of the same family is a complex coefficient. In her case, there are three main influencing parts to measure the value of an item.

The first is the working hours, that is, the total time required from mining to rough and fine processing, assembly, and the completion of the entire process. Some resources also need to increase the coefficient in the smelting process.

The second is the loss of all equipment during the manufacturing process, as well as the rarity factor of each equipment.

For example, items that can only be processed by equipment such as lithography machines, gravity-free manufacturing workshops, and ultra-high-precision intelligent control machine tools are definitely better than finding a dust-free workshop on the planet and using a four- or five-axis CNC machine tool. The factor that the machine tool can turn out the parts is much higher.

The third one is the abundance of resources and the difficulty of mining - the fluctuation on this point is the biggest, and it is also the biggest factor affecting the economic system of the same family.

For example, helium and diamond.

As a rare gas that is almost non-renewable and will completely escape from the planet once it is released, although the coefficient of helium in this aspect cannot be said to be unreasonably high, it is also a very precious resource—moreover, liquid helium is The substance with the best cooling ability that she knows so far plays an irreplaceable role in low-temperature superconductivity.

But diamond, an allotrope of graphite composed of carbon elements, can be artificially manufactured. Even if it is very hard, it has many uses, and its coefficient is also very low.

However, the alliance people marked the resource of helium as extremely cheap, wasted it at will, filled it into balloons and released it, allowing these precious rare gases to escape, and finally escaped to leave the planet. Even close to the price of gold.

It's very, very outrageous.

This kind of metal can only be produced in a small amount at the moment of a supernova explosion, this kind of rare metal that cannot be artificially synthesized at all, and a little less is lost. Why is it made of carbon like diamond?

Does it match?

It doesn't deserve it!

Going back to the topic just now, the Alliance usually uses GDP to measure the economy, and in it, there is an important concept called "three industries".

Union economists divide the national economic sector into three types, namely agriculture, industry and service industry, and call them "primary, secondary and tertiary industries" in order.

The first is the primary industry, agriculture, which covers the four industries of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery. Although the proportion of agriculture in the same group is negligible, for organisms, it is an essential industry for maintaining the population.

Conceptually speaking, the primary industry of mechanical civilization should be electricity, but the power generation sector has been classified into the secondary industry by them, so there are still a few minor flaws in this respect-but it doesn't affect the overall situation.

Therefore, although for Hong, it is also a "waste" of some production capacity, but it is a necessity of organic civilization, and she also regards it as an "effective industry".

Secondary industry, industry, including mining, manufacturing, construction, electricity, heat, gas, liquid water and other resource production industries.

This is very simple to understand. No matter which civilization, these are the fundamental factors that determine its strength.

The tertiary industry, the service industry, covers all other industries except the primary and secondary industries. Does it sound like it covers a wide area?

This is the industry with the highest proportion in the alliance economy—and also, the most useless industry.

In the tertiary industry, except for scientific research, transportation and information transportation, geological survey industry, education and health industry, which are directly related to the first two industries, the others are all rubbish.

To put it mildly, it is puffiness.

"Do you know how much the federal tertiary industry accounts for?"

With her hands behind her back, her hair was swaying in the improvised bleak autumn wind, looking like an outsider.

"do not know."

Bai honestly replied that although she was Jeffrey, she knew almost nothing about her former motherland—she had already belonged to Red wholeheartedly.

"92%"

Hong spat out an astonishing number.

You know, when she first learned of this data, Hong thought that the person who wrote the data had lost her head and wrote the secondary industry and the tertiary industry backwards.

According to their standards, the secondary industry of the same group should account for 95%, and the tertiary industry should account for 5%-of which 3 to 4% are scientific research, and the rest is transportation.

After repeated checks and the data published on the federal official website, she had no choice but to believe that the federal economic system was deformed.

"...what?"

Bai was stunned for a moment before realizing that 92% was referring to the tertiary industry, not the secondary industry—she also made a similar mistake to Hong.

"This, this is too..." As a member of organic creatures, she was also shocked by this abnormal proportion.

"It's outrageous." Hong sighed faintly, with a taste of hatred for iron and steel, "Even if you use the proportion of the employed population, the proportion of the population in the secondary industry is only 40%. Excluding those people... After that, the proportion of citizens is as low as 15%.”

Although economists have used many methods to prove that the tertiary industry is useful, and even take pride in the increase in the proportion of the tertiary industry, thinking that this symbolizes development, but for Hong, these things are false, at least they are also efficient extremely low.

Of course, she also knows that she can stand and talk without pain in her back - if it were her to raise the same number of cubs, the energy consumption would definitely be much more.

The core of the problem is not consumption, but efficiency.

is inefficient.

"A large amount of people and materials were consumed by unnecessary internal consumption, neither used to increase industry, expand manufacturing, nor used for scientific research to explore the unknown."

"Even, even the improvement of happiness is not as efficient as ours."

She reached out and rubbed her pale cheeks.

"dont you agree?"

"Um......"

Bai comfortably narrowed his eyes.

Hong is right, for her, this is a happy home.

Volume 65 Cats and Space: Chapter [-] Sneak attack on the stern of a ship = upskirt?

As the relative positions of the planets continued to move away, finally, the extermination unit stopped the dispatch of the fleet, drawing a perfect end to the long-term harvest and anti-harvest battle.

Although the "economic index" spent back and forth was enough for her to build another 10 battleships, it was still a big victory.

Although Hong's design ability is very strong, in the final analysis, the single pusher has only participated in two battles before, and there are many small problems that have not been exposed.But now, with the help of this excellent training ground, she successfully completed all the tests of the battleship and made changes to the corresponding parts.

According to calculations, the combat effectiveness of the upgraded single-pusher is at least 8% to 10% higher than that of the pre-update version—if the upgrade of the main gun is included, that is an increase of about 20%.

It is not to say that the simple and crude accumulation of 4 ships is better than the previous 5 ships, and 300 ships is better than the previous 360 ships. Increase the number of ships in other battlefields, thereby breaking the original balance.

It's like a snowball, expanding from point to point.

What's more, unlike organic civilization, there will be many non-technical concerns about armament updates. She can uniformly remodel all warships, and each battlefield will have a little more advantage. Mutual reinforcements snowball each other, and the benefits brought are Extremely impressive.

"If the same number of modified ships is used to fight the defense of Wei Er, even with that flagship, the winning rate can be close to 95%."

This is not a wild guess, but a unified conclusion drawn by the supercomputing array after many simulations.

"If the flagship can only lead the jump, instead of all ships having the ability to jump, the limitations on combat are still too great."
