I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 96: Chapter 91: The Moment of Destiny Approaches!

By the way, apart from small battlecruisers, almost all main ships and escort ships have spindle shapes nowadays.

The main activity area for the onboard crew is located in the middle part of the spindle-shaped spaceship.

Usually, the battleships will continuously rotate, and the purpose of the rotation is to maintain a nearly constant G-value to simulate a ground environment.

This was not achievable with past cone-shaped and bar-shaped battleships. They could only maintain balance with the assistance of magnetic boots. However, staying in a completely weightless state for a long time would lead to a decrease in bone density and physical fitness.

The new spindle-shaped battleship has solved this problem.

Moreover, when accelerating at high speed, a spindle-shaped battleship encounters fewer collisions with space dust in the near-vacuum state of the universe, thus it experiences less resistance.

When facing a massive obstacle that cannot be avoided, the battleship only needs to concentrate the main force-field shield energy at the front part of the ship to protect the cone-shaped head.

It is undoubtedly better than bar-shaped or cone-shaped battleships.

As early as the initial design of space battleships, researchers had such a plan in mind.

Unfortunately, the materials available at the time could not meet the requirements, and the failure and damage rate of components was too high. They couldn’t maintain constant rotation until material science made breakthroughs in recent decades, allowing the military to quickly update their battleships.

Even now, with the Azure Dragon Armor and even its upgraded version, Harrison Clark has made a significant contribution in a certain sense.

So, who says the ancients were useless?

However, he didn’t bother to rebut Martha Owen, as she had already exhausted herself in a month due to working on his equipment.

“Dr. Owen, I have an unreasonable request.”

“Say it.”

Harrison Clark tentatively said: “Can I borrow your researcher’s intelligent account? I’m tired of studying these historical materials, and I want to access more knowledge, such as researching material science and energy science. But it’s not realistic for me, a complete beginner, to take the Yellowstone Research Institute’s assessment.”

This idea came to his mind when he first met Martha Owen. He had been waiting until now when they were about to board the ship together, thinking it was the right time to mention it.

First of all, such an operation would undoubtedly be a serious violation of the rules.

But once everyone is on The Giant Wave, as long as they keep it secret, he thinks it would not be a big problem to cross the line slightly.

However, he didn’t expect Martha Owen to jump up and say, “Are you crazy?”

Harrison Clark didn’t anticipate her reaction to be so strong, “Don’t be so agitated, it’s not a big deal.”

“It’s impossible. I’ve never seen a crazy person like you. Your talent is in combat, so you should devote yourself to developing your talents. Now you’re telling me you want to switch to research? Then you’re being irresponsible to yourself!”

Harrison Clark cleared his throat, “It’s fine; I’ll take responsibility for my actions. It won’t affect my training with the Azure Dragon Armor.”

“No impact is just the result of your wishful thinking. But as for the value of diversified development, the research results at Flamingo Institute prove that specialization is the way to adapt to the needs of the times. If you can’t make the best use of your talents and resources, it’s a crime and a danger to humanity! I’m not joking with you.”

Harrison Clark swallowed, looked around, and whispered, “We’re all on the same side here. As long as we don’t talk about it, won’t it be fine?”

Martha Owen rolled her eyes, “You’re wrong. There, there… and there! Throughout the entire time machine and even on The Giant Wave we’re about to board, our every move is monitored by the central Al system. You’ll enter the manual review process for any criminal behavior, and it’s not just you who’ll get in trouble, but also me and your captain, Nora Camp.”

Harrison Clark was lost in thought for a moment, then shook his head with a bitter smile.

This was the legendary “omnipresent surveillance” that could fundamentally eliminate the possibility of most criminal activities being committed.

Except for the deeply rooted and powerful escape faction, which was able to exploit the loopholes under the surveillance, normal people could hardly get away with anything under the watchful eye of the powerful AL

Of course, once the military decided to take it seriously, clearing out the escape faction would merely take a single strike from the main ship, followed by a massive manhunt.

This was the inevitable development of the social system after the military party took absolute dominance.

Human beings indeed have some unavoidable negative traits, so the utopian society in idealism can never emerge.

However, the omnipresent surveillance constructed by military power can make the outward appearance of the social structure infinitely close to a utopia.

Harrison Clark didn’t know if the result was good or bad, but this was the path humanity had chosen after continuous self-exploration and evolution throughout the dark history.

“Alright, forget it.”

He shook his head dispiritedly.

Before playing chess, he mentioned it quietly to Nora Camp, and her answer was quite similar.

As a captain, Nora Camp actually had ways to bypass the surveillance.

However, the unfortunate thing was that Nora Camp’s belief was even stronger than Martha Owen’s, and she was completely unmoved.

When boarding the spaceship, Harrison Clark, as the captain of The Giant Wave’s Azure Dragon Special Battle Squadron, was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant.

His living conditions improved further, and his training environment also shifted from the ground to space.

After experiencing the initial fascination with the vast universe when ordinary people first entered space, Harrison Clark began to improve and advance rapidly once again..
