Looking at the Bluetuk who came to him on his own initiative, Li Qingsong controlled the clone and responded calmly: "Oh?" The Bluetuk man's face was full of awe, but what he was thinking in his heart, only God knew. But Li Qingsong didn't care whether they really obeyed him in their hearts. All I want is for you to contribute to my technological progress. As for what you think in your heart, I don't care. Anyway, if you make a contribution, you will be rewarded, and if you make a mistake, you will be punished. It’s a very simple thing. The Bluetuk man said nervously: "Specifically, the material performance and processing accuracy must be improved to a certain level. The main reasons why it cannot be further reduced in size and its power cannot be further increased are these two. But these two reasons obviously involve the progress of the entire scientific and technological system. Only when the entire scientific and technological system is advanced, can the material performance and processing accuracy be improved, and the miniaturization of nuclear fission power plants be realized. Otherwise, it is impossible to achieve. Really, it is impossible to achieve with the current level of technology. Dear Blue Star, I really did not deceive you, this is true..." Li Qingsong's millions of brains thought at the same time for a moment.
He sighed quietly in his heart and had to admit that what the Bluetuk man said was true. I was too impatient before. In that case, let's take it slow. Patting the Bluetuk man's shoulder gently, the clone said coldly: "Your rest time will be increased by four days every month." The Bluetuk man stood there in a daze, falling into uncontrollable ecstasy. Since he had decided to take it slow, gradually develop various basic technologies, and wait for the miniaturization technology of nuclear fission power plants to emerge naturally, Li Qingsong evacuated all the extra clones from here, leaving only some of the original clones for routine optimization research work. Time passed slowly. Seeing that the mines on the enemy star were beginning to dry up, and the number of containers transported to the Luoshen star was also beginning to decline, Li Qingsong became more and more anxious, but he could only be patient, continue to calm down, and continue to promote the development of technology bit by bit. It was under such circumstances that Li Qingsong finally received good news. The research in the biological laboratory has made another breakthrough. A new gene optimization plan has been developed, and we can produce higher quality clones ourselves! Li Qingsong did not hesitate and immediately put it into practical application. Half a year later, the first batch of higher quality clones was born. After comparing them, Li Qingsong finally chose the clone with the highest number of consciousness connections. His maximum number of consciousness connections is million! Compared with the previous million, it has almost doubled again! Li Qingsong was filled with excitement. "The maximum number of consciousness connections will double, and the research power I can devote to various disciplines will also double! Materials science research and processing precision research do involve the advancement of the basic scientific and technological system, and there is really no shortcut to the advancement of the basic scientific and technological system, and it can only be improved bit by bit through hard work. In that case, I will increase the number of water mills! Previously, there was only one water mill, but now there are two! Two water mills will definitely increase the speed!" Under Li Qingsong's control, about 5 million of the prepared clones were immediately connected by Li Qingsong and enriched the basic research forces in various disciplines. At this moment, Li Qingsong has a total of about 15 million clones under his command.
Based on the current maximum number of consciousness connections of about 10 million, taking into account the time the clones need to rest, 15 million clones is still quite tight to use. But at this stage, the resources on Divine Star and Luoshen Star are about to be exhausted, and Li Qingsong does not plan to increase the number of clones. No matter how many there are, firstly, the cultivation and maintenance of clones will consume a lot of resources, and secondly, they are temporarily useless. At this stage, Li Qingsong has stopped all less urgent scientific research projects, such as the preliminary research of controlled nuclear fusion, the research on ion thrusters that had already laid the foundation, the preliminary research of quantum chips, and even the training and actual combat exercises of Wukong AI have been temporarily stopped. All scientific research efforts and resource consumption have been invested in the research tasks of improving the basic science system. Everything is focused on realizing the miniaturization of nuclear fission reactors as soon as possible and mastering the secondary pressurization propulsion technology. In this situation, all scientific research facilities are already full, and Li Qingsong has no plans to build new scientific research facilities, so the extra clones are naturally temporarily useless. So, on the planets of Rosene and Enemy, the clones went through a long period of rest - an average of about 16 hours a day. After that, it became the current situation where they could only rest for an average of 9 hours a day, and the remaining 15 hours were spent on work or thinking. With the addition of the physical and mental strength of these clones, the progress of the basic scientific system has been accelerated at an almost palpable speed. So, five years later, the two key disciplines that Li Qingsong had always been looking forward to, materials science and mechanical processing, finally achieved a breakthrough. I can finally make materials with higher performance that can meet the requirements with smaller volume and mass! We can finally improve the processing accuracy to meet the construction needs of the parts! So, after only three months, the latest modular nuclear fission reactor was finally presented to Li Qingsong. The current modular reactor is only 28 meters long and wide, and 9 meters high. Its appearance is roughly similar to the first modular reactor, both of which look like engines. Its total volume is only over 6,000 cubic meters and its total mass is only about 1,600 tons! Both the volume and mass have been reduced to less than half! But its power has been increased to 25,000 kilowatts, times higher than the previous generation! It is fully qualified to be a ship engine. Of course, this is limited to large cargo ships. The total mass of a Venus-class battleship is only a few hundred tons, which is not as big or as heavy as it. Compared with the onboard reactor on the Deep Space spacecraft, its performance is undoubtedly extremely backward. But I made this with my own hands! I know all the technical details and have complete technical reserves! In the future, I can continue to iterate and optimize it, making it smaller and smaller, but more and more powerful, until it is large enough to be installed in a warship. My combat effectiveness will surely achieve another huge leap. But that's for the future. Now that we have mastered the manufacturing technology of shipborne reactors, the next most critical step is to research and master the secondary pressurization propulsion technology, and then escape from the increasingly barren planets of Luoshen and Divine, and migrate to the inner solar system where resources are extremely rich and almost unlimited!
