Chapter 69: Dreamscape: The Dawn of New Materials

The night was deep.

On the eve of significant action in a case, Su Jianming always found it hard to sleep, so he would simply stay in his office to avoid disturbing his family at home.

At this moment, Su Jianming was sitting at his desk, rubbing his reddened eyes, looking at the newly acquired details of a Mercedes-Benz car.

It was a car registered in the name of a company, and the company, engaged in the business of trading metal spot and futures, was called Donghai Metals Limited.

In the dead of night, Su Jianming couldn’t visit the company to inquire about the use of the vehicle and could only arrange for his officers to check it out tomorrow.

As for the new people sent by “Wolf’s Kiss,” Su Jianming took them very seriously, and the previous two individuals were already being processed as criminal cases.

After reviewing the transcript materials transferred by the security department, it showed that “Wolf’s Kiss” has indeed been transforming in recent years, and general mercenary armed operations were seldom involved.

Instead, they participated in many non-armed extremist activities, all related to some environmentalists.

It made one inevitably suspicious of the transformation of “Wolf’s Kiss.”

Su Jianming had hoped to identify some characteristics of “Wolf’s Kiss” personnel from these materials but came up empty-handed.

For a moment, Su Jianming was lost in thought.

Du Qiu entered the dream on time, and the upload of consciousness was successful again.

Having preliminarily figured out the situation of the white vortex last night, he gained an overall understanding of this production base from an alien civilization.

Tonight, he planned to test each of the white vortexes inside the supermachine one by one, to confirm the match between each white vortex and its corresponding functional block.

With his memory in the dreamscape, once the matching was completed, he could swiftly locate the appropriate module in the future, entering its sub-intelligence core to obtain detailed descriptions within.

However, when he matched about one-third of them, he paused inside the sub-intelligence core connected to one of the white vortexes.

This sub-intelligence core was the key program part of the intermediate purification process; the intermediate purification program Du Qiu viewed in the main intelligence core looked quite similar to the primary purification program.

Du Qiu had always assumed that the difference between the two was the application of different catalysts and molecular replacement agents, but the detailed program description he was seeing now revealed his mistake.

Fortunately, he hadn’t found suitable new materials for mass imitation production yet, otherwise, it would have led to unnecessary losses and possibly failure.

The difference lay precisely in the application of the supermicromagnetic field module.

In the intermediate purification program, a considerable portion of elemental materials used a unified magnetic field method.

With the elements already highly purified at this stage, the unified magnetic field was conducive to even distribution of element molecules for a better molecular structure.

Of course, the setting of such magnetic fields involved sophisticated parameter settings—you can use these parameters to let the unified magnetic field act on the purified element molecules, while other impurity molecules would be repelled by the field, thus achieving further purification.

Seeing the details of the intermediate purification program, Du Qiu suddenly felt like a cloud had lifted.

Recently, in the actual study of the primary purification process, Du Qiu had always been worried about how to set up that kind of supermicromagnetic field.

After all, this technology belonged to a civilization level above tier four, and without data on the components, he had no way of mimicking it directly.

If he didn’t use this supermicromagnetic field, he was concerned that the element purification might not achieve the desired results.

Now, having seen the detailed handling of the intermediate purification process, he was deeply inspired.

Why must element purification fully employ the production process from the dreamscape?

Blue Star already excels in purifying many elements; he could directly purchase a large quantity of single-element materials.

By skipping the primary purification process and using the intermediate production process and techniques, couldn’t he achieve the purity requirements of dreamscape technology?

As for the advanced purification process, Du Qiu had already looked at it—it’s only required for a very small portion of elements.

And as for those element materials, Du Qiu had not yet seen their practical value.

That is to say, there’s no immediate use for them.

Thus, the details of tonight’s intermediate purification technology have unraveled the challenge of mass-producing new materials for Du Qiu.

In fact, he had already found some new materials before, but during the preliminary testing in the first half of the primary purification process, the output failed to meet the standard.

The latter part, of course, is the high-speed separator, which Du Qiu has now decided to produce a portion of anyway.

Thinking that he had finally cleared all the obstacles in the production process of new materials, Du Qiu was extremely delighted.

Once some of the new materials he had found earlier could be successfully mass-produced, they would bring him massive wealth.

With money, many things can be set in motion smoothly.

Isn’t there a saying, “Any problem that can be solved with money isn’t a problem”?

If there are still issues, it means there’s not enough money!

Humans of Blue Star have made astonishing breakthroughs in many fields of technology, yet the key to their mass application has been prohibitive costs or the reluctance of policymakers.

Excluding the latter factor, the cost issue is a matter of money.

Now that Du Qiu has access to the dreamscape’s alien civilization production base as a treasury of technological knowledge, as long as he has sufficient financial support, he can continue to invent and create a slew of new technologies.

Human society will be able to achieve tremendous development.

Of course, Du Qiu also understands that thousands of years of wars in human society have been due to resource struggles, fundamentally driven by interests.

His technological breakthroughs would inevitably topple various old interest groups, so their backlash is expected to be formidable.

Considering the performance of some of the new materials that have been preliminarily confirmed, Du Qiu feels he shouldn’t be too ostentatious when introducing products.

Some products may even need to be held back, with a certain amount of groundwork required in the early stages.

Du Qiu put aside this thought and focused his attention to memorize the details of the unified magnetic field settings and the various corresponding parameters within the intermediate purification program.

After all, every series of settings corresponds to a specific element and must not be mistaken; otherwise, the finished product’s purification will fail.

Du Qiu memorized it three times, and only after being sure there were no errors did he leave that sub-intelligence core.

With the first light of new material production seen, Du Qiu’s mood was uplifted.

He continued to match the white vortexes with the sub-intelligence cores. With his recent discovery, he would quickly scan the program description in each core he entered.

If he found discrepancies from what he’d seen in the main intelligence core, he would immediately stop to scrutinize it closely.

This caused Du Qiu’s matching work to slow down considerably.

When the matching approached half the total number of white vortexes, things changed.

Just as Du Qiu’s consciousness entered the selected white vortex, he suddenly heard a voice.

“…disengage upload of consciousness!”
