Once he opened his mind, Dr. Otto was actually very talented in military technology.

Quark fusion is just a theory, and it still takes time to realize it. However, some technologies can be directly transferred and used, such as the energy manipulation technology of the Nova Empire.

Pure power can be turned into an almost physical shield under the control of a force field device. This technology was simply a fantasy in the past, but the Nova Empire has rich experience in this area, even on a cosmic scale. Advanced.

"Energy shields" become possible with the support of this force field generation technology.

In the video screen, Otto activated a force field generator more than three meters high. The blue light disappeared so quickly that the naked eye could not see what was happening.

However, in the instrument, it can be seen that an energy shield with a radius of about 5 meters has been formed around the stance generator, and some physical particles are mixed into it to enhance the protective capability.

The energy shield is stable. A beam of gamma laser shines on the shield. It can be clearly seen that the laser is scattered on the shield, and it is almost impossible to penetrate this layer of shield.

Logically speaking, although this gamma laser does not reach the strength of ship-borne weapons, at this distance, it can easily penetrate the armor plate of the ship body that is tens of centimeters thick. However, these gamma lasers are in the energy passport. It was dispersed under the influence, and spread towards the surface of the shield as if it was deflected.

Otto concluded: "This energy protection method is very effective against laser weapons. It can almost achieve complete deflection. Even if a small number of photons penetrate the shield, there is no lethality."

Laser weapons, especially gamma laser emitters, have strong penetration into physical armor. Even before the thermal energy dissolves the ship's armor, particles will penetrate the armor. If you are lucky, you can even injure shipboard personnel.

However, in front of this kind of shield, the penetration effect is very poor, and the particle flow will be dispersed.

In other words, if you want to use a laser weapon to penetrate this kind of shield, you have to use energy several times greater than the shield itself, and the killing efficiency is very low.

After testing the energy weapons, a 40mm cannon appeared in the laboratory.

The cannon ejected from the chamber, and its speed obviously slowed down after contacting the shield, and the trajectory was deflected. Although the shell successfully penetrated the shield, its lethality was greatly reduced.

Weapons of this caliber are basically as powerful as the cannons used by sweeper fighters, and are not considered weapons of mass destruction. Even with such a shield, the protective power is very limited.

"This is basically the case. As for explosive weapons, heat energy and shock waves will not break through the shield before it is overloaded, but in a vacuum environment, the heat energy will be quickly distributed to every corner of the shield, increasing the burden on the stance generator."

In other words, heat energy and shock waves cannot break through the shield, but they can easily overload the force field generator.

"Of course, this force field generator is just a trial product. If we continue to increase the energy supply, the intensity of the energy field will be much stronger."

It's just that this requires a larger space and a more efficient energy core. For now, the current energy shield can only be called a "deflection shield."

But no matter what, this technology is still very useful. For civilian use, this technology can even replace the magnetic dipole shield to better protect the colonial ecology.

Harry nodded: "Thank you, doctor - no one could have imagined what happened this time. Let's take a good rest after we go back."

Otto shrugged: "The work is still waiting for me. If possible, I would like to get more research resources."

Otto's enthusiasm was so high that Harry was a little embarrassed. Where could he find such a diligent employee?

After working overseas for more than 180 consecutive days, I even went to jail for it. After returning to the company, my first thought was to continue working...

Harry almost wanted to build a monument to Otto - but then he thought about it, now that Otto's name was everywhere in the textbooks, there seemed to be no point in erecting a monument.

Harry smiled and said: "Doctor, the research resources are easy to talk about. You are the most important. The research is not urgent - you have been missing for several months. Come home and take a look - there may not have been any before Edison invented the light bulb." Had a good night's sleep, but he wasn't abducted by aliens."

Otto was stunned for a moment - his experiences these days were too exciting, and all kinds of weird things really inspired his enthusiasm for work.

But as Harry said, he had been missing for several months, and it was time to go back and take a look.

"...You are right, it's time for me to go back - I can't use Edison's story as an excuse this time, Rose will be angry."

The communication was disconnected, and Harry sat in a chair thinking about the focus of his next research.

For himself, the top priority is of course the study of infinite gems. However, it is very difficult to study gems with earth technology, and only the mind gem can touch it.

Things like the Power Stone, which theoretically have infinite energy in this universe, cannot be used at all.

Even the fake Infinity Gauntlet in Tony's movie, which was created after several years of hard work, cannot control the gems well and cannot achieve the effect of the Infinity Gauntlet.

So Harry needs to develop the company, expand its power, and then reverse engineer more technologies, and finally find a way to hold the six gems in his hands.

Just like this time, "good" trade with the Nova Empire can speed up technological progress, so strengthening the company's strength is also necessary.

The breakthrough in force field control technology caused Harry's "fear of insufficient firepower" to attack: this kind of force field technology was not limited to the Nova Empire.

The Dark Star is an obsolete mothership in the Kree Empire. It is normal not to be equipped with this technology, but when faced with normal warships, it is obvious that the effect of gamma laser will not be that good.

Laser weapons...maybe they're not as good as you think?

The advantage of the laser is that it strikes quickly. It can easily strike at nearly the speed of light and is difficult to dodge.

However, judging from the attack data this time, there are many problems:

Although the Dark Star was easily disintegrated like scrap metal, the efficiency of the gamma laser transmitter did not meet Harry's imagination. The gamma rays were severely attenuated and diffused when passing through the atmosphere. If the launcher is overloaded, it is likely that the Dark Star will not be destroyed successfully.

You must know that if everything is normal, the ship's armor will absorb a large amount of energy in a short period of time and will become plasma and cause the ship's hull to explode.

On the other hand, the range is very short - at close to a quarter of a light second, it is difficult for a gamma laser to pose a threat to thick armor, let alone what if the opponent has a shield?

It's easy to kill a melee fighter like a Sweeper fighter in an instant, but what if the opponent's large warship has a long-distance strike method?

On Earth, countries that have beyond-visual-range strike capabilities will simply crush targets without such capabilities. What if the aliens have a longer range than Osborne's fleet?

In general, laser weapons have great potential, but they are not a universal weapon. Kinetic energy weapons and guided weapons still have their place.

"So in the end we have to go back to the idea of ​​kinetic energy weapons and guided weapons...

Connect with Phineas to see what our weapons experts have up their sleeves. "
