Chapter 2375: New Directions for Negative Energy Encryption

Very quickly, Xia Duo and Gelinqi discussed a rough plan on how to resolve the public's distrust of Negative Energy research. Although the plan might be somewhat idealistic, it truly reflected their real thoughts.

In this era, being idealistic is not a negative term; rather, it is a symbol of a firm stance. Xia Duo felt that the reason Dean Lisi proposed this test was perhaps not because he expected him to come up with a practical plan, but simply to see his stance.

After all, for a top university like Chixin University, even if a student's ideological awareness and political stance do not necessarily have to be top-tier, they at least shouldn't be too lackluster!

As for the experimental design plan, Xia Duo felt that Dean Lisi did not necessarily need him to produce a practically usable plan, but just wanted to see his talent in the research field.

Independence—even if discussed and designed together with Gelinqi—could sufficiently reflect Xia Duo's talent.

Not to mention, Xia Duo also had the knowledge from his hometown as a foundation; the design concept he had just thought of was no longer just experimental in nature, but practically usable!

Of course, transplanting a feasible plan from another Universe to the current world, while theoretically possible, would still require further research into the specific implementation methods.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo was unwilling to waste time discussing and instead spoke his own thoughts directly—

"Currently, the Negative Energy Research Institute's research has fallen into a bottleneck. I believe this is the manifestation of the extremely chaotic nature of Negative Energy. I think it is very difficult to design other experiments that can touch upon its essence while trying to avoid this point."

"But we might as well start from the Application. As long as there are enough applications, we can always peel away its essence bit by bit. Isn't the purpose of our research into Negative Energy to apply it? Starting from the Application does not deviate from researching the essence."

After Xia Duo finished speaking, Gelinqi looked thoughtful but raised a question:

"But now we have no new application directions. As for things like Negative Energy Downgrade or Negative Energy Weapon, they are at most improvements. If the Negative Energy Research Institute keeps doing these, how is it any different from other Negative Energy research institutions?"

"Then open up new application directions!"

Xia Duo pointed out without hesitation, "Negative Energy Downgrade or Negative Energy Weapon only utilize certain characteristics of Negative Energy. I have thought of a concept that can utilize the extremely chaotic nature of Negative Energy's essence."

"What concept?"

"It's something I thought of from the experimental results you mentioned earlier that lacked statistical significance. Isn't this True Randomness? At the very least, it can be used in various encryption technologies!"

According to what Xia Duo currently understood, the Chixin Tribe also frequently applied random number-related algorithms for the encryption of Spells and Mythallars, and even designed approximate True Randomness algorithms based on certain phenomena in Reality.

However, compared to the extreme chaos of Negative Energy, so-called True Randomness always has traces to follow. Perhaps in the future, the extremely chaotic nature of Negative Energy could be discerned and cracked, but for a considerable period before that, it could be applied.

After all, Negative Energy corresponds to the infinite Entropy Increase of the Universe. To crack this, one might have to wait until the day the Universe dies, or perhaps as long as one is in the current Universe, it can never be cracked.

Regardless, at least from Xia Duo's current understanding, the chaotic nature of Negative Energy is fundamentally uncrackable. Applying it to encryption technology, while not necessarily absolutely foolproof, can certainly be considered a relatively significant step forward.

Moreover, the reason Xia Duo proposed this was also because he considered that he would choose the Maze Lock Design Major next. If the Negative Energy Encryption Algorithm and device could be realized, perhaps he would even have the opportunity to preside over the upgrade of the Alliance Mishuo!

Even if he could only preside over a small part of the upgrade, it would allow him to come into contact with the Original Permission. This could be considered another option besides struggling to enter the Research Sequence, and both could be carried out simultaneously!

Inside the Reception Room, Xia Duo and Gelinqi's discussion on the application prospects of Negative Energy Encryption was incredibly enthusiastic, but once it came to the specific design stage, they realized there were simply too many problems to solve.

The most fatal problem among them was—the True Randomness characteristic of Negative Energy generally only manifests when an experiment touches upon its essence.

If it cannot touch upon the essence, then it is not considered True Randomness. For example, Negative Energy will be attracted to death and will be annihilated by Positive Energy; these all have traces to follow.

And to touch upon the essence, the complexity and even the cost of the experiment are not easily achievable.

In other words, Negative Energy Encryption is indeed theoretically feasible, and it is indeed feasible in Reality, but the problem is that the cost is too high and the operation is too complex; it is simply not practical.

At least for now, it is not practical.

But regardless, this is indeed a new research direction with very promising application prospects that can touch upon the essence of Negative Energy.

And just as Xia Duo and Gelinqi were arguing fiercely about how to reduce experimental costs, Dean Lisi returned to the Reception Room silently and even participated in their discussion.

At first, the two were discussing with great interest and didn't feel anything, but soon, Xia Duo realized there was an extra Elf in the Reception Room, and it was Dean Lisi; he became a bit restrained again.

And this change in him also affected Gelinqi. Gelinqi also realized that Dean Lisi had come over and hurriedly stood up to salute.

"No need to be restrained, continue your discussion."

Although he said that, and Xia Duo and Gelinqi did indeed continue to discuss for a while, they both felt a bit uncomfortable with Dean Lisi staring from the side, so they both stopped after discussing for a while.

"Forget it, there will always be opportunities in the future."

Dean Lisi did not force the two to continue the discussion; one can force actions, but one can never force thoughts. However, his words also revealed an attitude—

Xia Duo's test was considered passed!

"Maruente, after you go back, hurry and submit your application for advanced studies to Chixin University. There will be a regular meeting of the Admissions Committee soon, and the new semester is not far off, so you must hurry. Also, what major are you planning to choose, Negative Energy or Maze Lock?"

"Thank you for your guidance, Dean Lisi. I plan to choose the Maze Lock Design Major. Although Negative Energy Encryption involves Negative Energy, it has more connections with Maze Locks, and I also prefer researching Maze Locks."

"Maze Lock Design is good. If you choose Negative Energy, your future employment prospects will be too narrow. If you are not single-mindedly developing in the Negative Energy Domain, it is better to choose Maze Lock!"

"Yes."

Walking out of the range covered by the Mythallar at Dean Lisi's residence, Xia Duo couldn't help but clench his fists in excitement. On the way, he even impatiently verified his identity in the Mythallar and then submitted his application for advanced studies to Chixin University.

Next was waiting for the notification, but with Dean Lisi's care, Xia Duo was not worried about any accidents at all. With such an important matter resolved, he felt exceptionally relaxed and exceptionally happy.

"Gelinqi, let's go, let's go get a drink and solve dinner while we're at it."

"You're treating. You scared me to death just now. If I really couldn't pass Mentor Lisi's test and had to come back to repeat the year, I might be laughed at by my classmates for the next few decades."

Not only was Xia Duo feeling relaxed, but Gelinqi was also exceptionally relaxed. He just wanted to have a good meal now to reward himself.
