I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 532 - 349: The Essence of Science_2

Chapter 532: Chapter 349: The Essence of Science_2

Harrison Clark’s face fell.

That was how easy it was for the conversation to collapse.

It collapsed without any warming up.

Seeing Harrison Clark’s setback, Bernal Connor continued his counterattack.

His mood lifted slightly and he spoke at length.

“It’s not that I’m deliberately making things difficult for you, nor am I putting myself above you. There’s no doubt that being a soldier is a great profession, and no one can deny that. But there are specializations in every field, and you guys have your strengths, and your strength is war.”

“When war breaks out, soldiers fight on the frontlines, grappling with the enemy for their lives. We will also provide you with the best equipment, the best battlefield emergency systems, and the best medical services in the rear.

You may die at any time, and we will not be left alive.”

“We researchers also have our areas of expertise, and that is innovation. Our battlefield is not on the frontlines, but in our laboratories. So, I forgive your presumptuous remarks and won’t hold it against you as a soldier for trying to dabble in scientific research in your ignorance.”

“Really, General, what you should be doing is leading the Caudron Army Corps to fight’bravely against the enemy. You share the same genes with the ancient philosopher Harrison Clark, you have demonstrated your talent for war, and you have the opportunity to become the greatest military leader in human history.”

“At that time, if you need it, I can join your army as a scientific advisor, and I am willing to entrust my life to you. Even if we are defeated, I will die with you on the front lines without hesitation.”

“But you should not put down your military status and entrust your life to your subordinates, and waste time running to Summit Fortress. It’s shameful and ignorant of you. You should be well aware that a mature scholar needs to go through years of learning to master a solid knowledge base before they can take the innovative step towards an original project.

“A non-professional attempting to engage in research is a waste of resources. By the way, I need to tell you one more thing, the Superbrain Core of Intelligent Brain Star has a very strong energy reaction and its temperature is higher than

the sun’s core.”

“Even if your gene awakening level is as high as 36.73%, and you wear the Titan Defense Armor with a protective rating ten times that of the Galaxy Battle Armor, you can only survive in the Superbrain Core room for one- tenthousandth of a second.”

“So, if you want to go in there. We have to negotiate with Star so that the computing power released by the Superbrain Core is lessened to one percent of the normal level, and shutdown more than 99% of its power. But…”

Harrison Clark: “But does that mean that humans have a chance to shut Star down permanently?”

“Yes, that’s one reason. Star is, after all, Quantum Intelligence, not a human, so she won’t agree to this request. Second, even if she agrees, it will take at least three days to shut down the computing power and then restart it. In these three days, do you know how many projects will be halted due to the lack of computing support?”

“Just because of your absurd and ridiculous personal research needs, we have to pay such a price? I urge you to come to your senses, you are a soldier with only a high school education, not a scientist with a wealth of knowledge accumulation capable of producing important original achievements.”

After Mr. Connor finished speaking, he looked sharply at Harrison Clark, saying nothing more.

Harrison Clark was stunned for a long time before saying, “I don’t know how to explain it to you, but I do have some very special inspirations and ideas in my

mind.”

Mr. Connor laughed loudly, “Hahaha, stop teasing me. I am Bernal Connor, a recognized scientist in nearly 30 fields spanning high-polymer biomatenals, metal materials, single-element materials, quark energy, bioenergy, unified mechanics and many others!”

“I’ve seen more projects than you’ve eaten meals and met more young researchers who claim to be geniuses than you’ve ever known. You’re talking about inspiration? Creativity? You have no fucking clue.”

“The essence of science has never been a matter of luck. It is the accumulation of countless pieces of knowledge in the heart, through countless seemingly random quantum reactions in the brain, and the spark of thought brewed from countless collisions! You don’t know shit!”

Harrison Clark’s hand silently pressed against the desk, leaving a two-inch deep palm print.

Mr. Connor changed his tone, “I’m sorry, I’ll amend my words. Anyway, I am just very grateful for your support of scientific research, General, and I am simply offering some minor suggestions out of a sense of responsibility for science.”

Harrison Clark withdrew his hand.

The old man knew when to quit, otherwise there would have been bloodshed on the spot today.

“Ahem, General Harrison, please listen to an old man’s advice,” Mr. Connor ordered him away, “Really, I’m sorry, please goback. If you don’t want to leave, I’ll arrange for Yvonne Wallace to accompany you for a few days. As for me, I’m afraid I can’t join you. I’m busy. I’m really busy.”

Ultimately, Harrison Clark left the conference room.

As he left, he muttered a single word in his heart.

Damn.

Yvonne Wallace, the young scientist from the Gene Institute, was already waiting for him.

“General Harrison! I’ll accompany you on a tour!”

Harrison Clark turned around, raised his hand, and flicked his fingernail against the tip of the needle in her palm.

The sharp tip of the needle broke, flew like lightning to the ground, and accurately hit the tip of her big toe.

Yvonne Wallace fell back in shock.

Harrison Clark bowed to the air, “Excuse me.”

The Scientific Committee’s office area was located in the heart of Summit Fortress, and from there, it led to a brightly lit huge corridor.

The corridor was a square structure with a side length of one kilometer.

There were buildings on all four walls of the corridor, forming numerous alleys.

The buildings in the center were the tallest, reaching about 300 meters, while those near the ends of the square frame were relatively lower.

This was a bustling neighborhood with lush green street gardens.

Standing in the street garden in the middle of the alley, you could see the world standing up.

Looking up again, it was an upside-down world.

Looking forward or backward, it was a straight world with no visible end. The essence of the corridor was a super street stretching for thousands of kilometers.

In the middle of the aerial street were thousands of floating isolation pipes, in which countless people were rapidly passing through, sitting in single or multi-passenger time machines, like red blood cells traveling in blood vessels.

Each segment of the super street housed different research institutes or universities.

Inside the vast Summit Fortress, except for some large laboratories, most neighborhoods were made up of such super straight square streets. After leaving, Harrison Clark didn’t know where to go for a while.

Although he had had many subordinates before, he didn’t have any acquaintances in Summit Fortress at this time.

Harrison Clark randomly found a table in the street garden, sat on a chair with his legs crossed, and had an intelligent robot serve him a cup of drifting snow tea, which he sipped on.

Harrison Clark began to observe the technological background of this era from a bystander’s perspective.

By the 31st century, people’s understanding of science had reached a level that left non-professionals utterly baffled by the terms.

Cross-disciplinary industry barriers were more like insurmountable chasms than anything Harrison had seen on any timeline before.

Although talent across different fields was rare, it was not unheard of.

Better learning conditions had produced unprecedented geniuses, allowing some highly gifted individuals to unleash previously unknown intellectual power.

Research staff polarization was very severe. For example, super geniuses like Bernal Connor, Martha Owen, and Matilda could use 10 or 100 times more powerful comprehension skills to quickly get involved in a field and then accumulate knowledge at an unimaginable speed.

But the vast majority of people could only focus on one small field for their entire lives.

Harrison had seen this situation many times before, and it had a highly negative impact on the creativity of society.

But, in this timeline, the Supreme Intelligent Brain Star coordinated and served as a bridge connecting different fields and industries, erasing the previously insurmountable knowledge barriers between them.

However, the Intelligent Brain Star could only overcome the barriers between scientific researchers and not the even sturdier barriers between soldiers, workers, and scientific researchers.

From a scientific perspective, Mr. Connor’s words were harsh but correct, and they could even be considered the truth.

But-

Harrison Clark’s value lay in breaking the truth.

He took a big gulp of the scorching tea and then stood up and walked quickly towards the Stable Energy Field Development Institute.

The solution was there.

Everything was under control.
