This peculiar method of connection is… quantum entanglement.
The phenomenon of quantum entanglement was discovered by people back in the Earth era.
It is a "ghostly" connection that exists between microscopic particles.
When the state of one particle in a pair of entangled particles is determined, the state of the other particle can also be determined. This process is instantaneous, regardless of the distance between the two particles.
To make a rough and inaccurate analogy, it's like having a red ball and a green ball in a bag.
Two people each take a ball from the bag, but they don't know what color ball they have.
Afterward, these two people travel to different planets, for example, one goes to Mars, and the other stays on Earth.
There is now a distance of at least 40 million kilometers between them. According to conventional electromagnetic wave communication, the one-way communication delay would be about 133 seconds.
But now, the person on Earth opens their bag and sees that the ball they took is green.
Therefore, without any delay, they can know that the ball in the other person's hand, 40 million kilometers away, must be red.
This is quantum entanglement.
Of course, true quantum entanglement is extremely complex, and it is impossible to understand without sufficient knowledge of physics. But roughly speaking, it is this kind of model.
As early as the Earth era, people dreamed of relying on the "real-time, zero-delay" characteristic of quantum entanglement to apply it to communication, but they never succeeded.
They couldn't even find the direction to go.
But now, with the huge breakthrough in basic physics, Li Qingsong finally has hope of achieving this.
At this moment, the two huge devices in these two spaceships, about 30 million kilometers apart, are connected together in this way.
At this moment, on the console of one of the spaceships, Li Qingsong controls a clone and inputs a string of characters.
Although the current quantum communication technology, or rather, superluminal communication technology, is still extremely primitive, its communication terminal consumes extremely high energy, is extremely large, even requiring a large spaceship to accommodate it, and the communication rate is extremely low, with numerous uncontrollable errors, this does not affect one thing.
That is, he has truly mastered superluminal communication technology!
All that needs to be done in the future is iteration and optimization.
It's like humanity back then, once the atomic bomb was created, would the emergence of nuclear fission power plants be far behind?
In the future, when superluminal communication technology matures, he will no longer be limited by distance when developing galaxies.
Even now, Li Qingsong's overall production and research efficiency will be greatly improved due to the emergence of superluminal communication technology.
This is because Li Qingsong's fleet size is too large. The two spaceships farthest apart can even be more than 30 million kilometers apart.
Even if Li Qingsong is located in the center of the fleet, there is still a delay of about 50 seconds for the spaceships and clones at the edge of the fleet.
Even with the support of Shen Gong AI, this 50-second delay still causes an impact of about 5% on overall production efficiency.
Soon, this 5% impact can be eliminated.
Li Qingsong invested more research and development efforts in superluminal communication technology. As a result, related technologies were rapidly optimized and iterated.
Soon after, Li Qingsong completed another technological breakthrough.
A neural chip suitable for the human body was successfully developed.
This is a chip that can be implanted into the human brain and directly translate brain neuron information into data.
This breakthrough seems meaningless, but at this moment, coupled with superluminal communication technology, it has brought huge changes to Li Qingsong's production and life model.
At this moment, two clones implanted with the first-generation neural chip came to both sides of the fleet, 30 million kilometers apart.
Li Qingsong's consciousness is in the body of one of the clones.
The next moment, Li Qingsong's heart moved, and he issued an order to the other clone.
Originally, Li Qingsong's consciousness would be transmitted to the other clone at the speed of light through that communication method whose principle was not yet understood, so the one-way communication delay between the two would be 100 seconds.
But now, the communication mode has changed.
The brain information of the clone where Li Qingsong's consciousness is located is first transmitted to the neural chip.
The neural chip sends a signal and transmits it to the terminal A of the superluminal communication device.
A and the terminal B of the superluminal communication device are in a state of quantum entanglement and can perform superluminal communication.
So the information and instructions are instantly transmitted to terminal B.
Terminal B then sends a signal and connects to the brain neural chip of the other clone. Therefore, even though they are 30 million kilometers apart, that clone executed Li Qingsong's order to "stand up" only about seconds after Li Qingsong's main body issued the command.
The communication delay between the two has been reduced a thousand times from the original 100 seconds to the current seconds!
Even this delay is not the delay of superluminal communication. Because superluminal communication does not require any time.
This delay is the delay of data processing, translation, and signal transmission between brain neurons and neural chips, and between neural chips and superluminal communication terminals.
Even if the distance between the two is increased to 60 million kilometers or reduced to 10 million kilometers, the delay will be seconds and will not change.
Moreover, with future technological improvements, this delay will continue to decrease.
At this moment, Li Qingsong's heart truly surged.
For thousands of years, Li Qingsong has always been limited by the connection speed of the clones. But now, with the technological breakthrough, this limitation has also been broken.
Li Qingsong seems to see the scene where billions of clones, although scattered throughout the galaxy, hundreds of billions or trillions of kilometers apart, can still execute his orders in real-time without delay under his unified control.
It can be determined that Li Qingsong's industrial capabilities, research capabilities, and all other aspects of his capabilities will explode due to this technological breakthrough!
At this moment, after truly verifying the feasibility of this model, Li Qingsong devoted himself to the research and improvement of neural chips and superluminal communication with greater enthusiasm.
He even set a grand plan for this.
Within the next ten years, implant neural chips into the brains of every clone, completely changing the connection mode between himself and the clones!
