Chapter 1360: The Mystery of the Feast (10)
"Your Highness, I'm sorry about what happened to your country, but with all due respect, no matter how you are involved in this matter, even if you just help Yondu hunt down raccoons, it may lead to problems that you can't handle. trouble."
Schiller looked at Alan with an apologetic expression. He was sure that Alan would not persist in his pursuit, or even further ask the Holy of Holies to help him resolve this matter.
Although Alan is acting very urgently now, as if he can't help but protect the security of his country, in fact, the Dodel Federation he mentioned is a multi-tribal alliance, and he is only the prince of one of the tribes, and may not even be that kind. An important prince who can succeed to the throne.
He will show an attitude that everyone is drunk but I am alone, and he must help the Federation solve this trouble. It is nothing more than gaining some political chips for himself. However, if the price of this process is greater than he imagined, it will naturally There is no need to proceed.
Sure enough, Alan just showed a look of regret, no longer as anxious as before, and seemed to just lament that he had missed an opportunity to show off in front of his father.
At this moment, the waiter came out of the concert hall and led the guests to take their seats in order. Alan smiled at Schiller and said: "Thank you very much, sir. Thank you for your kind reminder. It seems that we I can only endure it for a while, but I will still visit the earth another day, and I also want to experience the services of the Holy of Holies."
"Of course, you are always welcome in the Holy of Holies."
After hearing Schiller's polite reply, Alan turned around in time and stopped arguing. But after he turned around, Schiller's serious expression quickly disappeared. Instead, it became half-smiling, and his eyes fell. On Alan's hair tied back.
The young prince had thick black hair, most of which was braided on the back of his head and carefully taken care of. However, Schiller saw a hair that did not belong to him on the side of his collar that was exposed when he walked around. .
Schiller followed the flow of people into the concert hall. This place was different from a human concert hall. It was circular in shape and divided into three floors: upper, middle and lower. In the center of the patio was a band playing, and all the seats were seated next to it.
In fact, this is not very conducive to the sound collection, but Asgard is a magical civilization after all, and they have special methods to make the sounds of various music perfectly reach the ears of the audience.
After Schiller walked into the concert hall, he glanced around, his eyes lingering on several people, and then he saw the conspicuous red cloak as expected.
Schiller took the catalog of music from the waiter next to the seat and walked towards the figure in the front row of the second floor. Strange also felt someone approaching him and turned back to look, but Schiller was already sitting next to him. around.
Asgardian concerts are different from human ones. Drinking is allowed here, and guests can also chat quietly during the intermezzo. It is more like a social event than an art appreciation party.
After Schiller sat down, he tapped the wine glass in Strange's hand with his fingertips and said with a smile: "Quit drinking, eh?"
Strange picked up the thin champagne glass, swung the wine inside, and then said: "Quitting drinking must be done step by step. I try not to drink before doing important things. You know, that kind of drunkenness" The feeling will affect my ability to use magic, but it won’t matter when I’m resting.”
Schiller also took a glass of wine from the waiter, shook his head and said: "Yeah, and then you will find that all time is rest time."
The two reached out and clinked their glasses. Strange smiled and said, "Seriously, when will you go to Karma Taj again to see our progress in the application of magic energy?"
"I'm just an ordinary person, I don't know magic, so don't whisper in my ears your fables, fate and the like." Schiller shook his head, showing a thoughtful expression.
Strange sighed and said a little helplessly: "Well, last time I was away, the ones who received you were the more traditional mages. As you know, they just like to talk like this. I promise not to do it next time. "
"Actually, I also know that what you are most concerned about should be the progress of portal technology." Strange took another sip of wine, frowned, and his expression became a little more serious. He looked at the people in the field. A musician said: "I still maintain my opinion that portal technology is likely to be one of the greatest advantages of mankind in the future."
"Before we went to the interstellar world, we only thought it was very convenient. But when we actually set foot on the interstellar stage, we discovered that such a convenient, flexible, and energy-saving portal was not found in the entire universe. Racial ownership.”
"Indeed, the three major empires of the universe do not lack teleportation gates. Without teleportation technology, it would be almost impossible to achieve large-scale interstellar colonization like theirs. However, their teleportation technology has a big problem, that is, it is large and energy-consuming. High and troublesome to maintain.”
"Of course, the three major empires are not short of these materials and energy, but portable, personalized and lightweight ultra-small portals like hanging rings are still technical difficulties that they cannot overcome."
"The reason is actually that civilization development routes are different." Schiller started to analyze. He said: "The Kree Empire and the Skrull Empire are both technologically advanced, and they do not have much research on mysticism."
"Most technological civilizations start their transmission routes from artificial wormholes, continuously improving the stability of wormholes and the accuracy of transmission, and then continuously shrinking and downgrading them, and developing various portals on this basis."

"Magneto once demonstrated to me how wormholes unfold. To be honest, even he, a chosen son who masters the basic forces of the universe, has to spend a lot of effort to build a wormhole portal."
Strange nodded. He had also seen Magneto's transmission method. To be honest, opening a portal in the universe is nothing. After all, the universe is so big and so empty. Even if dozens or hundreds of portals are built, it will not affect anything.
But Magneto's wormhole portal cannot be used on Earth at all, and it is not even possible to be too close to the Earth. It is very likely to affect the Earth's gravitational orbit.
Even if Magneto's control of his own abilities has reached an extremely subtle level, no one dares to let him take this risk. After all, there is only one Earth. If something goes wrong, ordinary people will be finished.
This risk will lead to a dilemma for surface civilizations to study portals. Such civilizations do not have the ability to colonize interstellar space, and it is even difficult to go to other planets. They only have one mother planet, and they can only build experimental sites near it.
But if the experiment on wormholes is not done well, it will be a planetary explosion. Almost no surface civilization dares to risk the end of the mother planet to do such experiments.
But now humans are very special. Their technology and magic are developed separately. When it is difficult to build a spacecraft that sails within the solar system on the technology side, the wizard's small portals have been opened all over the universe.
This means that they can completely build experimental sites outside their mother planet, such as Mercury Base, or Saturn and Uranus satellite bases that are currently being developed, or even go directly to the alien enclave, that is, the Andromeda Galaxy to conduct experiments. In this way, even if there is danger, it will not blow up their own home.
Strange touched his chin and said, "In fact, the wizards are planning to find an open area in the Andromeda Galaxy to test new portal technology." Schiller raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion, "What new portal technology is there? And we have to go to the Andromeda Galaxy to experiment?" Strange sighed and said, "This is actually a historical problem. As you know, human wizards have been very poor for a long time. We only have a little energy, so we can only use it sparingly." "On this basis, most wizards' research routes are how to save energy and improve the efficiency of energy circulation. The same is true for portal technology. You may find it a little ridiculous to say that the only hanging ring portal in the universe , it was developed by the wizards who were forced to save energy. "
Strange smiled bitterly and said, "Think about it, the idealistic nature of magic means that every wizard's dream is to bombard with energy. More is better, bigger is beautiful. If we were not really poor, would we study so many miniaturized technologies?"
"But no one thought that one day we would not worry about energy, but would encounter bottlenecks because the technical route points were too extreme."
Schiller remembered that when the Sanctuary was just established, Kamar-Taj seemed to have started to study large-scale portal technology. The last time he heard the name of this technology was when he heard that the large-scale portal had been opened to the size of the moon.
But since then, he has never heard of any breakthrough in this technology. If Strange hadn't brought it up again, Schiller would have almost forgotten it.
This is quite interesting, Schiller thought, the portal technology of other civilizations all changes from large to small, from the initial large wormhole that could affect an entire universe to a small portal for civilian use.
But the development process of human portal technology is the opposite. The wizards have been studying energy saving and shrinking technology for many years, resulting in a portable hanging ring portal for everyone, but they have encountered problems in the large-scale portal.
Although Schiller did not understand the principle of magic, he knew that it was not possible to expand the portal to infinity by constantly injecting energy into the hanging ring. The structure of an energy body that can accommodate one person and an energy body that can accommodate a planet must be completely different.
Just like a toy castle made of sand, it is easy to stand up, but if you want to build a real castle, the load-bearing structure and material strength must be strictly designed and considered, and it is not something that can be used casually.
"Because we didn't have so much energy at that time, the wizards went through several generations of inheritance and worked hard to design the hanging ring portal out of thin air. This is simply a miracle.
"But because no wizards in ancient times had so much energy to build large portals, and they didn't even dare to think about it, our technical inheritance in this regard is completely missing."
Strange shook his head and said: "The largest portal developed by wizards now is not much larger than the moon. "Of course, a portal of this size is enough to transport a few small spaceships or move materials within the solar system, but since humans are already one step ahead in magic portal technology, why can't they be more advanced?" "As long as there is a large portal, combined with the Earth's magic defense network, humans can move to their home planet at any time."
As the gorgeous chandeliers above the seats in the concert hall gradually lit up, the light in Strange's eyes became brighter and brighter. His tone seemed to be joking, but his words contained a greater ambition.
"Maybe, we can move something else?"
