Chapter 453: Chapter 97 Dyson Cloud Supporting Technology

```

It’s absolutely true. The only reason why the Dyson Principle is called that is because the person who set the rule was preoccupied with thoughts of the Dyson Cloud and casually named it so.

"Dyson" is neither the name of the rule maker nor a place name; it holds no other symbolic significance.

It was just a name picked off the top of his head.

Realizing this, Xiang Shan couldn’t help but hold his head.

When he slew the old Tyrant, was it such Great Power that he just missed out on?

This guy...

"Don’t forget that he is the emperor, he is the goddamn god," TX-0 had described to Xiang Shan, "so if he wants to develop technology, he can do so freely. The construction of the ’Dyson Cloud’ is its own and only significance."

——Damn... Damn... goddamn.

Xiang Shan originally thought that only he or David would do something like this. In his current memory, there were no such signs in Yawgmoth at the dawn of the 21st century...

Well, maybe a little.

After Xiang Shan died, it seemed that only the appearance of the Second Martial God caused Yawgmoth to waver slightly. About the time of the Fourth Martial God’s emergence, he was already planning this. Apart from that, Yawgmoth wasn’t interested in anything else. He had no interest in ruling or enslaving humanity, preferred machines over humans, and believed machinery was more efficient than humans.

He didn’t oppress humanity but disassembled his own powerful organization to give "freedom" back to mankind. The last decision he directly made for humans was "to destroy the nightmare of the dead that haunts the minds of the living."

After that, he seldom issued direct commands anymore.

When the Fourth Martial God and the Eighth Martial God died, he did issue a punishment decision because Hartman acted on his own, causing great losses.

But that was all.

Besides that, he was always plotting the construction of the Dyson Cloud.

He would send countless engineering problems to the Scientific Knight Order, which were issues he encountered while building the Dyson Cloud or other space wonders.

Material science, progress management, energy conversion...

All these fields required research.

And now, in the near-Earth orbit, there are solar panel arrays with a total area over ten times the surface area of the Earth in motion.

These satellites are relatively close to each other and moving at the same rate.

However, "ten times the total area of the Earth" is still an insignificant number compared to the sun.

Not even as noticeable as sunspots.

So much so that Xiang Shan, after awakening for three years, hadn’t even noticed this—because such a meager volume was still not enough to cause noticeable changes in the Earth’s climate or sunlight exposure.

But if one were to observe carefully, it could be slightly visible.

With this piece of information, Xiang Shan finally saw from Earth where Yawgmoth currently was.

The sun is where the Throne lies.

Xiang Shan also understood that this implied the terrifying extent of the enemy’s power.

The energy the sun sends to Earth in one day amounts to approximately 1.49E22 joules, and during a day, only one hemisphere of the Earth is exposed to sunlight at any given time.

```

Some of that energy would be reflected back into outer space, and most of the remainder drove the flow of water and atmosphere. About one thousandth of that energy would be utilized by the biosphere. Within this "one thousandth," a small portion would be buried and, over countless years, transformed into fossil fuels by the earth.

Even so, the total solar energy absorbed by photosynthesis in the biosphere was twice the energy consumed by human civilization in the same amount of time.

If the Earth were converted into coal, then the solar energy it received in a day would equate to the complete combustion of fifty trillion and eighty-five billion tons of standard coal. At the beginning of the 21st century, the world’s proven recoverable coal reserves were less than a trillion tons, with anthracite and bituminous coal accounting for about five hundred billion tons.

Yawgmoth’s Dyson Cloud was tiny compared to the sun, but its solar energy collection area was twenty times that of Earth, not to mention the solar light in the close solar orbit was much hotter than that reaching Earth.

Within the Dyson Cloud, powerful electric currents surged and would then be converted into high-energy lasers, which were directly transmitted to some Space Cities and spaceships.

The lasers were directionally transmitted and very stable, with little energy dissipation. They were highly effective in the sparsely material space.

Of course, when necessary, they could also serve as weapons.

And the Scientific Knight Order had always been working on "high conversion rate photovoltaic panels."

Moreover, these high-energy lasers, after being converted into electrical energy by some "intermediary points," could also be transformed back into lasers and transmitted in different directions again.

There was inevitably a significant loss in this process, but it was not a problem compared to the terrifying overall magnitude of the Dyson Cloud.

Currently, between Mercury’s orbit and Earth’s orbit, there were thousands of Space Cities dependent on the Dyson Cloud for energy.

Also, the operations of the Mercury mining zone heavily relied on the Dyson Cloud for power transmission.

Of course, this power system also faced significant challenges.

The foremost issue was heat dissipation.

In the absence of a medium in space, heat dissipation became a huge problem. Without a medium, rapid heat dissipation through particle collisions was impossible; the heat could only be radiated away slowly through electromagnetic wave emission.

The Throne was very close to the sun, making this thermal issue even more severe.

The Scientific Knight Order had made efforts in two directions regarding this problem.

First, they used heat exchange loops to collect systemic thermal energy and transfer it to enormous heat dissipation systems.

Second, they focused on reducing the generation of heat itself.

Such powerful electricity still had to be paired with a superconducting power transmission network—reducing waste heat generated in the process of electricity flow.

The circuit system within the Dyson Cloud was built by the Scientific Knight Order without any expense spared and was made of metal hydrogen alloy—a miraculous material that could maintain zero electrical resistance at 20 degrees Celsius.

It was said that a hundred years prior, the Protector faction had even had discussions about "whether to temporarily halt the research on high-temperature superconductors."

Because the technology for "room temperature superconductivity" and "room temperature quantum logic gates" were in some sense interconnected. If the Scientific Knight Order were to continue digging deeper in this direction, their findings could easily be borrowed by Hero to develop "quantum chips that are very difficult to produce, but suit environments with minimal stable supplies and are more suited for high-level individual soldiers."

A considerable number in the Protector faction were not keen on seeing this happen.

But in front of Yawgmoth, this issue didn’t even need to be discussed. Apart from the Ninth Martial God, no Hero had ever bypassed his defenses to enter the Throne. He had not even issued a personal command to eradicate the Heroes.

He neither hated Heroes nor feared them.

Thus, the Scientific Knight Order continuously conducted research in this area.

Of course, the only compromise was that papers in this field could be published secretly by the Scientific Knights.
