Chapter 38: The Terrible Pi Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Realizing that there are encryption features, the decryption algorithm will be started immediately.
"Start differential password attack!"
"Different password attack failed!"
"Switch linear password attack!"
"……fail!"
"Switch to higher-order differential password attack!"
"……fail!"
...
"Regular password resolution failed!"
"Start try specific analytical algorithms!"
"Start analytics!"
...
Time passed slowly, and the algorithms for the decryption process gradually went from the reserved common algorithms to artificially increasing variables and then handed over to supercomputers for verification. Although Wen Ziqiang was unable to participate in this cracking process, as algorithms failed one after another, his heart became more and more nervous.
"I imagined that communication was difficult, but who would have thought it would be so difficult?"
"Even such a powerful supercomputer can't crack it?"
"Didn't find the trick, or is the obstacles they set are too difficult?"
Wen Ziqiang's thoughts fluctuated, and at the same time he felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness. In the interstellar war, there was a lack of solid scientific and technological knowledge, and this combat staff was really not easy to be at all.
He once thought that although he could not do what Zhuge Liang could do, the masts and oars were wiped out in ashes.
But at least it can be made into a shaking fan.
But now, I'm really helpless.
In the interstellar era, in an era where war technology levels are becoming increasingly dense, Wen Ziqiang can feel that it is becoming increasingly difficult to make a strategy work, and at least it is becoming less and less smooth to use it yourself.
Imagine the video tutorials of dozens of terabytes in my virtual space, and Wen Ziqiang felt a little tooth pain.
Suddenly, he saw a sudden feeling flashing across Cheng Xiang's face.
Wen Ziqiang immediately flashed through surprise like a conditioned reflex. This guy was so powerful.
The Interstellar Foreign Ministry, which is specialized in communication and translation, currently has 50,000 scientific and technological personnel under its jurisdiction, divided into more than a dozen major departments and hundreds of small categories.
The 50,000 people have not yet achieved anything and are still struggling to find a solution, but Cheng Xiang has made a breakthrough alone?
He was obviously rational in his heart and couldn't believe it, but Wen Ziqiang still firmly believed that Cheng Xiang should have found it.
Without asking, Cheng Xiang had already looked over, and his familiar and confident smile was better than any answer.
"I think we get it."
"What is it?" Wen Ziqiang's voice trembled a little.
"The decryption itself is still a conspiracy." Cheng Xiang sighed.
Wen Ziqiang's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he was still an open conspiracy. He immediately thought of something, "This decryption is still calculating our computing power?"
Cheng Xiang nodded, "If I didn't expect it, it's really a bit difficult."
"But once you think about it, decryption itself is not difficult. If it is some conventional encryption methods, then it will be a matter of time before it has a planetary supercomputer to analyze features and inversely introduce encryption methods."
"Usually, as long as you find this key, the decryption will be completely out of China."
As usual, Wen Ziqiang understood that the current encryption method is definitely not the same.
Sure enough, what Cheng Xiang said next was exactly what Wen Ziqiang thought.
"But, the key is very unusual now."
Wen Ziqiang understood the literal meaning, but naturally he didn't understand the general method, so he listened carefully.
Seeing Wen Ziqiang's anxious face, Cheng Xiang directly revealed the answer, "It's Pi."
"Pir?" Wen Ziqiang immediately started thinking after hearing this. With such a clear prompt, Wen Ziqiang's training over the past three years is not in vain. His unique thinking mode immediately digs out the relevant information stored in his brain. He suddenly thinks of the key point, and then he can't help but whimper, "Cheng, what do you mean is that the current dozen EB data sets are pi, and to translate them, then, first of all, you need to calculate the pi corresponding to more than ten EB digits?"
"That's right!" Cheng Xiang's expression was tightened.
"In fact, what I should have thought of long ago is that the most common figure in the universe is spherical shape, and the plane sections of spherical shapes are circles."
"There may be different angles in the understanding of the world between different intelligent creatures, but mathematics can build this bridge of connection."
"But this bridge is obviously intended. To calculate the entire data set, we must first calculate the pi at least after ten or ten EB after the decimal point. That is to say, about the number of significant digits to the nineteenth power of ten."
Wen Ziqiang didn't ask such a childish question as to how big this number is. Such a long effective digit, just hearing it is a shocking and boundless feeling.
Just looking at the tenth power of the 19th power, it doesn’t seem too big, that is, one hundred billion, only nineteen zeros.
However, please note that the unit we are talking about now is not a numerical value, but the number of digits of the effective pi is as many as ten to the nineteenth power. How many years ago, the calculation of pi was at most tens of trillions of digits, and it took a long time.
Now, the calculation requirements have been directly increased by nearly ten orders of magnitude, and the requirements are simply terrible. Such terrible calculations are a considerable task even for today's planetary biological computers.
The later the pi is calculated, the higher the requirements for the computer. The memory length, addressing length, computer scheduling rules, calculation complexity, and the calculation tasks you face can imagine that they will be more complex.
"I really can't underestimate any civilization that has entered the interstellar world." Wen Ziqiang took a deep breath.
"If there is no advanced enough computer, the pi alone is a threshold that cannot be bypassed in front of decryption. This is a place where you cannot take advantage of it. If you know, you will, you will, you will, you will not." Wen Ziqiang was still scared, and a light flashed in his eyes. "If I guessed well, the ten-terabyte data they sent out must be distributed in different parts of the entire translation data set to translate it."
"In this way, they can more accurately evaluate the level of our computing power through the information we understand." Wen Ziqiang directly guessed what should appear later based on his own business qualities.
If it weren't for personal experience, who could have imagined that just one communication would have hidden so many plans.
After hearing this, Cheng Xiang nodded without thinking. Logically speaking, this was almost obvious, "It should be like this. No civilization that has entered the interstellar world cannot be underestimated."
"Compared with the civilization behind the Moon Fortress, the civilization behind Target B gives me the feeling that they are more threatening."
