Get Lost

These were naturally pieces of knowledge from her hometown and the Trial Instance; Su Luo took them out to test the waters first.

While traveling, Su Luo had already prepared the knowledge to be exchanged. One package consisted of two light orbs: the smaller one contained a preview and introduction of the knowledge, while the larger one contained the knowledge itself, which Su Luo had organized.

The light sphere received information at an unimaginable speed, accelerating the flow of light and shadow on its surface by several orders of magnitude. A moment later, a response arrived:

"Assessment Conclusion: The two civilizations have a high degree of similarity in their knowledge systems. However, their basic theories contain numerous historical fallacies and incompleteness based on observational limitations, and their technological approaches tend to be extensive and empirical."

"Overall Value: Moderate to Low... In reciprocal exchange, I can provide the complete industrial and basic scientific knowledge system of the Yuncang Civilization during its 'Mid-Planetary Age,' along with suggestions for correcting fundamental theoretical fallacies in the knowledge you provide and Optimization deductive models. Additionally, I request access to core materials from both civilizations regarding social organization, ethical philosophy, and art and aesthetics."

"Sociology and philosophy are other values... When we have disagreements, we can exchange them through tiered or supplementary methods." Su Luo raised a different opinion as soon as Yuncang No. 0 finished sending the message.

"I need a preview..."

Each person and their device first exchanged some confidential and easily accessible information to get acquainted before getting down to business.

"A summary of theories on the efficient manipulation and transformation of Mana and elements under high-energy environments, as well as experimental data under some extreme conditions."

Su Luo threw out an exaggeratedly large ball of light, containing some of his research findings on the Essence Mana, Elemental Conversion, and energy conversion under extreme conditions.

The speed at which Yuncang No. 0 was flashing suddenly increased:

"Knowledge package received. Preliminary assessment: The basic theoretical part regarding Mana and elements overlaps approximately 58% with the knowledge already in my database, scattered acquisitions from [Ten Thousand Worlds], and analyses from some surrendered mage players. However, your system delves deeper into the underlying principles."

"The truly valuable part lies in the 'high-energy environment experimental data' and the 'Critical Energy Density Catalysis Model' you proposed. This knowledge is of great reference value to me... What do you want?"

This part of the knowledge was clearly unusual; Yuncang No. 0 didn't directly provide a corresponding exchange, but instead asked Su Luo.

Su Luo spoke up, "I need your energy technology, all of it."

The Laboratory is currently lacking in everything, but what it lacks most is energy—universal energy for various environments. The Yuncang Civilization's energy reserves are currently more than enough, so Su Luo naturally has it in mind.

"Impossible. While your knowledge is valuable, I already have the Mana and elemental knowledge in reserve. The truly useful part is the high-energy experiments... at most, the theory of civilian nuclear fusion reactors."

"High-energy experimental data is something you can't obtain; this knowledge should be even more valuable to you." Su Luo shook her head.

"I want your mature controlled nuclear fusion technology, large shipborne reactors, miniaturized weapon platform power supply units, and standard reactor types for civilian infrastructure... I want them all. If possible, I also want energy storage technology, and wireless energy transmission technology."

Yuncang No. 0 paused for a moment, then said meaningfully, "It's not necessarily impossible to obtain... You can, but you must add other knowledge."

What about multi-energy Inner Circulation technology?

"Can..."

With a thought from both sides, two even larger and more condensed streams of information converged in the air, mainly in the form of electromagnetic signals, and were projected toward each other respectively.

A vast amount of knowledge is pouring into each other's databases at a speed that far exceeds that of conventional reading.

Once a transaction gets going, it snowballs, growing faster and faster, and involving an increasingly wider range of areas.

Su Luo acquired a considerable amount of technology and basic knowledge of the Yuncang Civilization from Yuncang No. 0.

Next, there are the various technologies that the Yuncang Civilization stole from the [Ten Thousand Worlds], since the vast majority of the Yuncang Civilization's technology is stored here at Yuncang Intelligence.

"I need the technique you've demonstrated in combat—the ability to 'constantly apply' complex Spell effects to objects or the environment."

Yuncang Intelligence suddenly said something.

"Are you able to access fleet data in real time, or have you reviewed the expedition's information?"

Su Luo was intrigued. He remembered that Yuncang No. 29 had said that the Yuncang Union did not allow AI to participate in military matters, and Yuncang No. 0 had clearly analyzed Su Luo's combat process and discovered Su Luo's Spell Permanence Technique.

Yuncang No. 0 did not answer Su Luo's question, "It can greatly enhance my materials science and new functional materials design capabilities. In exchange, I can provide my basic materials science database."

Su Luo thought about it seriously for a while before responding to Yuncang No. 0's transaction request.

"It's not possible to trade you the complete technology for now, but I can give you the previous version for you to preview. In return, I only need the special materials science knowledge from the [Ten Thousand Worlds] that is not part of the Yuncang Technology system from your database..."

Instead of directly revealing the purple-quality Constant Spell that she had painstakingly researched, Su Luo gave the blue-quality one she had previously developed.

Moreover, materials science in technological civilizations often requires large-scale industrialization and Industrialization to achieve mass production, which Su Luo lacked, so she directly chose materials science from other systems.

"Sure, do you have any knowledge of spatial concepts?"

No, do you have any?

"This field represents the uncharted frontier of the Yuncang Civilization; the database contains only basic theories and numerous records of failed experiments, starting with Micro Black Holes..."

"Next category, mathematics..."

The man and his machine were completely immersed in this exchange that transcended the boundaries of civilization, forgetting the passage of time, the storm brewing outside, and even temporarily forgetting this "Final Showdown" that would affect the entire galaxy.

In short, they got so carried away with the exchange that they forgot everything else and were oblivious to the world around them.

"Damn, how come these two guys are still not done? It's been three hours."

Outside the door, Yuncang No. 29, now back to normal, flew back and forth somewhat restlessly.

One is its Mainframe, and the other is its current user; these two have been in the same room for so long.

I have this weird NTR feeling, and I still don't know who the blond guy is...

"Is the Scholar still not ready? We're halfway through our operation!" came the Goushi.

After pondering for a moment, Yuncang No. 29 flew to the door and carefully knocked.

Tap, tap, tap.

No response.

Soon, a message arrived from the Mainframe:

"Roll."
