Lin Yu stood in the laboratory, soft and bright lights illuminating him, casting his reflection on the crystal that glowed with a faint blue light. He leaned slightly, his eyes fixed on the data core of this ancient weather control device, his gaze filled with awe and excitement. The surrounding instruments hummed softly, as if also thrilled by this mysterious discovery.
After a simple assessment and dark energy reading, Lin Yu already knew that this was no ordinary object, but a crystallization of the Ancient Saint civilization's profound technology. It was like a treasury containing endless treasures, and despite millions of years, it remained intact. The information stored within it and the level of technology it contained far surpassed ordinary computing chips known today. The mere fact that it could still operate normally after eons was enough to prove its extraordinary nature.
"The Ancient Saint's technology is truly unimaginable," Lin Yu gently caressed the crystal, remarking to the Great Clock beside him, "The data core at the center of this weather control device, after tens of millions of years, is still able to drive the weather control device and cast psionic spells."
Lin Yu's voice carried an undisguised excitement, his fingers trembling slightly, as if he was touching not just a crystal, but the entire glory of the Ancient Saint civilization.
"Yes, the Ancient Saint's technology is indeed very powerful," the Great Clock's steady voice echoed in the laboratory. "Relics left for tens of millions of years can still operate continuously without disappearing due to the erosion of time. Their technological advantage in energy supply is also vastly superior to current human technology."
Lin Yu straightened up, a flicker of excitement and eagerness in his eyes. He clenched his fists and loudly declared, "Quick, quick, quick! Conduct a thorough information retrieval, from the data recorded internally to the material information of the crystal's structure. Strive to analyze thoroughly every piece of information contained in each micro-particle, every data layer, without missing a single piece of data or trace."
His voice trembled slightly from excitement, and he unconsciously paced back and forth, his eyes filled with anticipation.
As the Great Clock began its full analysis, streams of data flashed rapidly across the laboratory screens. Lin Yu stared intently at the screen, not daring to blink, as if afraid of missing any crucial information.
"Ding, internal data of the data core has been read. Warp energy extraction and utilization technology, galaxy-level climate control instrument manufacturing technology, anti-psionic field technology, psionic field enhancement technology, anti-Chaos psionic purification technology, and countless small psionic technology application projects have been collected," the Great Clock's mechanical voice sounded again.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu's eyes instantly lit up, and a joyous smile appeared on his face.
He couldn't help but clench his fist and wave it in the air, excitedly saying, "This is fantastic! These technologies are simply too important."
"Through the compositional information of the blue crystal material, high-density, high-durability data storage technology and advanced psionic compression and solidification technology have been read as dark data," the Great Clock continued to report.
Lin Yu took a deep breath and slowly said, "This is truly a great treasure! Besides other things, just the Warp energy extraction technology alone is much cheaper than current nuclear fusion and antimatter technologies."
As he spoke, he paced back and forth in the laboratory, gesturing with his hands as if explaining to an invisible audience in the air.
"As long as protective measures are in place, it's almost equivalent to an eternal, infinite energy source."
His eyes sparkled, as if he could already see a beautiful future with abundant energy.
"And the most urgently needed large-scale anti-psionic field can also be loaded into various technological creations."
Lin Yu stopped, his brows slightly furrowed, lost in thought.
"Although I previously used the Great Clock to load advanced antivirus programs onto all powerful AI and shipboard intelligences, making it almost impossible for ordinary Chaos electronic daemons to successfully invade."
He looked up, his gaze distant, as if recalling his past efforts to guard against Chaos invasion.
"Furthermore, at the physical core of the computer, through Divine River programming dark language technology, an dark energy explosion program was implemented at the computing core as a safeguard, hidden at the dark energy level."
His finger tapped lightly in the air, as if simulating the operation at the time.
"This ensures that even if the protective program fails and is invaded by an electronic daemon, the hidden dark energy protection program's safeguard protocol can trigger a physical-level dark energy destruction of the computer chip, completely disabling the computer and preventing the threat of intelligent machine rebellion."
However, it is ultimately powerless against the infection and corruption of physical matter in the universe.
Now that the Ancient Saint's psionic manipulation technology has been analyzed, just a single anti-psionic field means that battleships will no longer fear the plague and decay bestowed by Nurgle. Unless a Greater Daemon or Nurgle himself intervenes to corrupt, then there's naturally nothing to be said."
Lin Yu's face broke into a relieved smile, as if a great weight had been lifted from his heart.
All the other various technologies also possessed miraculous powers. Lin Yu walked to the screen, carefully examining the technical descriptions, nodding at times and showing surprise at others.
"And advanced psionic solidification and compression technology also has a wide range of applications."
He said softly, "It can be used as high-density energy crystals of pure psionic energy. Whether it's psionics casting large-scale spell rituals or psionic technological creations, all require this pure psionic energy for power."
He imagined a future where psionics could use these energy crystals, with a single person able to cast large-scale psionic rituals or spells, and a slight smile played on his lips.
And the core function of this Ancient Saint artifact, the galaxy-level weather control device, also has a very significant role.
Lin Yu turned and looked at the blue crystal again, his eyes full of longing.
"It can quickly transform a dead planet into a Gaia life planet, similar to those in Stellaris, through psionic action."
He closed his eyes, as if seeing a barren planet gradually come to life under the influence of Ancient Saint technology, becoming lush and vibrant.
"A Gaia planet where all life can find the most suitable living environment... It makes sense. To allow all life in the universe to adapt and survive, only planets with high psionic environments would have such miraculous effects."
He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with hope.
"Once the Empire's planets are conquered in the future, the weather control device can be used to transform some harsh or dead planets into Gaia planets to serve as vacation or residential planets."
Lin Yu crossed his arms, a confident smile on his face.
"However, a high psionic environment can also easily lead to Warp pollution, which is also a problem. But that can be considered later. For now, it can be treated as a technological reserve, and we can also try to use the power of technology to build an efficient weather control device."
Lin Yu thought to himself, a hint of determination in his eyes, having already decided to overcome these challenges.
"Furthermore, anti-Chaos psionic purification technology also has great utility. It can convert the energy in the Warp, which is filled with Chaos pollution and countless extreme emotions, into pure psionic energy. This would provide a stable source of pure psionic crystals, probably comparable to Zro Dust in Stellaris."
Lin Yu could only make analogies based on the Great Clock's deductions and the observed effects in Stellaris.
He stood in the center of the laboratory, looking at the flashing instruments around him and the mysterious blue crystal, his heart filled with anticipation for the future. He knew that these Ancient Saint technologies would bring infinite possibilities to humanity's future, and he would lead humanity into a new era.
