As a mage, I just want to pursue the truth

Chapter 224 Pragmatism
Wiles was taken more seriously.

It was not because he used life-extending potions, but because of his progress in artificial intelligence that gave the European Alliance hope.

Both Wiles and Jean-Pierre were mathematicians, and both used the Magic Brain.

Wiles' main research and development task is to develop artificial intelligence, and Pierre's main task is to optimize the cosmic coordinate system screening and calculation methods.

The division of labor between the two is clear. Compared with Jean-Pierre, Wiles has achieved tangible results.

Therefore, the Europa League asked Wiles to focus some of his attention on magic coin mining.

They have already introduced artificial intelligence into the field of automatic recognition of astronomical observation images.

Because the pixels of the photos are not clear enough, too much of the factor relies on the subjective judgment of astronomers.

Therefore, image recognition technology performs far less well than expected in the field of astronomical observation.

As the chief expert in the field of artificial intelligence within the Europa Union, Wiles will subsequently intervene in these areas.

He believes that new neural network models can perform better in this area.

The English side is very dissatisfied and they regret returning to the Europa League.

If they had known earlier that Wiles could achieve a breakthrough in the field of artificial intelligence, they could have used this achievement to negotiate with American.

The reason why England chose the Europa League was because they did not have the chips to impress America.

But it’s different if you have a life-extending potion.

Now Wiles is in Brussels and the Europa League won't even let him go back.

The ostensible reason was for Wiles' personal safety and to protect top talent.

In fact, it is just house arrest in disguise.

England regretted it deeply.

They didn't even know the specific details of how Wiles obtained the life-extending potion.

We only know that a breakthrough has been achieved in the field of artificial intelligence, but the specific technical breakthroughs have not been disclosed to the outside world.

After the two sides reached a cooperation agreement, representatives of the Chinese research team rushed to Brussels as soon as possible.

They need to gather as much information as possible.

As a concession, China's biological storage servers were opened to the Europa Alliance.

Huawei received orders worth tens of billions of euros at one time.

At this time, no one comes out to complain that using Huawei equipment has security risks.

Even for a device like a biological storage server, where even the underlying implementation principles are unclear and the black box of a 5G network device is unknown, no politician from the European Union came out to make irresponsible remarks.

Security risks emerge when an excuse is needed, but disappear when the real security risks cannot be controlled.

This double standard was ridiculed by Chinese netizens.

“Why didn’t England come out and say that Huawei’s equipment was at risk? Beiming No. 1 is very risky no matter how you think about it.

The underlying storage medium of Beiming No. 1 is manufactured by Deep Blue Storage, a pure state-owned enterprise.

Deep Blue's storage technology comes from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which clearly shows that Chinese officials are behind it.

How dare they put their own country's data on Huawei's storage servers at this time?

Aren’t you afraid of data leakage now? "

"What a double standard. If the Americans don't sell to them, they can just use Chinese equipment."

Although major American hardware manufacturers have previously held high-profile press conferences, announcing their official entry into the field of biological storage.

But in reality, production capacity is extremely dependent on the American government.

Therefore, America is not even able to meet its own internal production capacity and is unable to take care of its younger brothers in the Europa League.

This is not the time of the Marshall Plan when the money was deep and deep.

“One thing we need to clarify is whether the life-extending potion requires some kind of material that has been processed with magic.

When you go to the Europa Union this time, if the Europa Union provides samples of life-extending potions, remember to check whether there are any special chemical bonds."

After Merlin provided the biological storage technology, China not only applied the biological storage technology but also conducted in-depth research on it.

I hope to take this opportunity to have a deeper understanding of magical civilization, and also hope to be inspired to make new breakthroughs in the field of biological storage.

Chinese scientists have discovered that the production process of biological storage media reflects a very strong concept of synthetic biology.

Synthetic biology was proposed very recently in Blue Star, with the concept introduced in 1980.

At that time, scientists hoped to use bacteria modified through gene editing technology to artificially intervene in the life system.

Biostorage technology requires the synthesis of a large number of non-natural organic molecules, but these non-natural organic molecules can be well integrated into the life system of biostorage.

These unnatural molecules could effectively allow silicon-based devices to read and write information in biological storage media.

Chinese scientists were amazed to find that synthetic biological molecules could have such an effect.

It's not just about the biological system itself.

However, many of the special chemical bonds involved in the non-natural molecules cannot be synthesized using conventional methods and require magic.

Therefore, in the view of Chinese wizards, these special chemical bonds are the key to longevity potions.

If similar chemical bonds are also produced in the longevity potion, it means that magic is needed in the production process of the longevity potion.

The absence of chemical bonds does not mean that magic is not needed.

It just means that there is no technical overlap between life extension drugs and biostorage.

"I am worried that the Europa Alliance will only give us their observation data and not allow us to directly contact the life-extending potion."

"This is a high probability event. The Europa League is as ruthless as America.

We need to be prepared for this.

Even so, you can appropriately remind each other to pay attention to chemical bonds.

Especially if there are chemical bonds that cannot currently be synthesized artificially."

"It's probably an extremely complex macromolecule, so be prepared for a long period of work."

China did not send any wizards over there because the Chinese wizards knew too many secrets.

It is better to be safe than sorry. If the European Union does not abide by the rules, we will be in a passive position.

"You can reveal the inside story of biological storage technology appropriately. Regarding biological storage technology, some materials need to be processed with magic. This can be revealed to them at the appropriate time.

Anyway, even if they knew, they couldn’t guess the specific implementation process.”

“This cooperation is a test, if the cooperation between the two sides goes smoothly, we will cooperate on more research topics.

Of course, you don't need to feel too much pressure.

When it comes to magic, all of us are just explorers, and the life-extending potion is certainly not that easy to reverse engineer.

In other words, I don't think we can crack the life-extending potion together.

If it was so easy to crack, Merlin wouldn't have marked the price so high.

But we need to know the idea behind the life-extending drug, and whether we can develop life-extending drugs based on Bluestar technology according to the ideas contained therein.

This is the key. "

The Europa Union is ahead of China in biomedicine, but China has gone further than the Europa Union in magic. Magic has brought a lot of changes to Blue Star.

The bigwigs who had been cursed by Merlin before were found to have committed suicide in different locations one after another because they had lost all positive emotions.

Currently under Merlin's curse, Bill is the only one still alive.

Because he was under close surveillance by the American government, he didn't even have the chance to commit suicide.

When Bill accidentally learned that the big shots had died, he laughed three times on the spot.

It is precisely because Merlin's curse is so powerful that the countries of Blue Star dare not act rashly.

Who can withstand indiscriminate attacks?

The first lunar satellite in history was Luna 10 of the former Russian Federation.

Chandrayaan-1966 was launched and successfully entered orbit in 1959, while Chandrayaan- was launched in .

In other words, former Russia launched ten rockets in just seven years, with the destination directly pointing to the moon.

What’s even crazier is that just three years after Luna 10, America successfully completed its moon landing plan.

Before America's successful moon landing, there had never been a lunar orbiter like Luna 10.

The Lunar Orbiters No. 1 to No. 5 they launched, after entering the predetermined orbits, all took a large number of photos of the lunar surface and transmitted them back to the blue planet.

At the same time, the altitude of the lunar orbiter gradually decreased until it made a hard landing.

Only one of the Lunar Orbiters 1 to 5 successfully landed on the moon.

Successful paths in history have an impact on the present.

America has had plans to launch a lunar space station for a long time, but it is not NASA's first choice for promoting a lunar space station.

Because they have historically been unenthusiastic about launching stabilizers in lunar orbit.

What America needs is to successfully land on the moon as soon as possible, and then consider the lunar space station after getting there.

China has taken the lead in this field.

"It's so desolate, I didn't expect that I would spend this year's Spring Festival in the lunar space station.

Compared with the blue planet, the moon has no life at all.

I think if the ancients had the opportunity to see the moon so closely, all their beautiful fantasies would have been shattered." Chen Dong said with emotion.

During the 2025 Spring Festival, three Chinese astronauts spent it on board the lunar space station.

The three Chinese astronauts who are carrying out the fourth mission to the lunar space station are still all men.

Since 2024, a total of nine Chinese male astronauts have entered China's lunar space station.

And everyone knows that the lunar space station is actually preparing for the moon landing.

According to China’s latest space program schedule, a moon landing will be carried out in March 2025.

There were still no female astronauts on the fourth mission to the lunar space station, which disappointed many people.

Because it meant that it was almost impossible for women to be part of the first crew to land on the moon.

Under some official blogs, the news about the fourth lunar orbiter successfully entering orbit and entering Tiangong-2 was filled with questions:
Why are there no female astronauts involved?

Compared with America, China is not so particular about political correctness.

The fact that black women participated in the American moon landing made some people even more dissatisfied.

The astronauts who finally successfully entered the Tiangong-2 lunar space station are actually most likely the three people who will finally carry out the moon landing mission.

In response to questions from the public about why all nine astronauts entering space this time are men, a certain insider with greater freedom explained on his personal Weibo:
"As far as I know, China's moon landing plan is a long-term mission, involving the subsequent construction of a semi-permanent base on the moon.

This moon landing is different from the moon landing dominated by competition in the last century. China's moon landing has a clear purpose and a detailed time schedule.

Since the subsequent construction of a base on the moon involves a huge workload, and there is a physical gap between women and men, women were not considered in this moon landing plan.

I guess there will be women astronauts on the moon after the moon base is built.”

After the above remarks came out, those who were dissatisfied were still dissatisfied.

The objections of those who are dissatisfied with this mainly focus on: they can make clear requirements instead of directly rejecting female astronauts, and they can also not consider women at all from the selection process.

The turmoil on the blue planet cannot affect the mood of the three astronauts in the lunar space station.

"So beautiful, Bluestar."

Chen Dong was still expressing his feelings when Ye Neng interrupted him and said, "Okay, okay, it's almost time to stop."

"We've been up here for three days, and I'm getting a little tired of it."

"We haven't completed our lunar surface observation mission yet. We will need to connect with Blue Planet later."

“Time is tight.”

Today's technology has made great progress compared to the last century.

Taking optical equipment as an example, in the last century, photos that could only be taken if they entered a near-moon orbit and then crashed into the moon can now be taken in a lunar orbit, and the photos can be clearer.

Their most important mission this time on the lunar space station is to photograph as many lunar features as possible.

Prepare for the subsequent selection of the lunar landing site.

And the site of their first lunar landing will likely be the location of their final lunar base.

Chen Dong sighed and said, "I almost forgot that I have to connect with Blue Star today."

"I just wanted to ask if we could not do these things. Time is limited anyway."

Ye Neng: "This is not something we can refuse."

"It's our first time to spend New Year's Eve on the space station. I guess we are the only three people in China who have this opportunity."

"And to be honest, I really want my family to see me on the Spring Festival Gala."

Chen Dong nodded and said, "That's true."

"From this perspective, it is indeed necessary to connect with the Blue Star Spring Festival Gala live."

Ye Neng nodded and said:
"The previous time 22 years ago, I was on Tiangong- and connected to the Spring Festival Gala live."

"It's very simple, just say a few words to wish the people of the country a happy new year."

Another year has passed. While Chinese astronauts are greeting the people of the country on the lunar space station, Zheng Li is spending the New Year at home, a rare occasion.

When he was in Singapore before, the most he could do was make a video call remotely.

Li Miaomiao would sometimes take it upon herself to help him visit his parents for New Year's greetings after the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Because of his identity, he was forced to stay at home for three days and government officials at all levels came to his home.

As for the children of relatives who asked Zheng Li to perform magic, Zheng Li was completely unable to adapt to the scene of being treated like a rare animal by the crowd.

Even if he lets artificial intelligence take over, he will still receive live footage.

Zheng Li felt awkward just by seeing the scene. He had originally planned to stay for five days, but actually only stayed for three days and then hurried back to Gusu.
