Chapter 392 Overturned Theory
[Warning!]
[The outer armor of the starship is under attack.]
The electronic synthesis sound of the shipboard computer broke the silent atmosphere in the cockpit of the research ship, and a series of blood-red warning messages popped up in the holographic interface on the main console.
"It's the annihilation of positive and negative matter!"
Looking at the attack alarms all over the ship, Chen Fan's face was stern, and he quickly looked at [Gaia] not far away.
Although the universe is a vacuum environment, there are still a lot of interstellar dust floating around. In the material universe, these interstellar dusts will not have much impact, but in the anti-universe, these interstellar dusts can be said to be real assassins.
It is no exaggeration to say that if there is no protection, even a little inconspicuous dust is enough to cause Chen Fan and others to suffer unprecedented heavy damage!
This star field is obviously carefully selected, and the interstellar matter inside is quite sparse. On average, there may be only a few scattered atoms in every cubic meter of space, but the scale of the human alliance's starship is huge!
[Gaia], although it is the smallest planetary fortress of the Human Alliance, it is a planetary fortress after all - with a diameter of more than 2,000 kilometers, is it possible for such a huge thing to appear in the starry sky without touching any interstellar dust? So
...
under Chen Fan's gaze, the surface of the khaki starship outside the porthole suddenly burst into a bunch of sporadic flames!
Not only that, even the portholes of the scientific research ship burst out with a few slight explosions.
Along with the sporadic flames, Gaia's exclamation came synchronously in the communication channel.
Hearing the full-hearted shout, Chen Fan was slightly relieved - it was just a little skin on the surface armor, no big problem.
As the force field shield system began to work normally, the interstellar dust farther away could no longer approach the starship, and the annihilation reaction also stopped.
Under Chen Fan's gaze, a large number of silver-white nanomachines poured out from the inside of the scientific research ship, quickly repairing the slight scars on the surface of the ship.
[Received a communication request from the Dangerous Technology Administration, do you want to connect?
Before Chen Fan could calm down, a reminder message suddenly popped up on the holographic interface in front of the cockpit. Chen Fan carefully glanced at Wang Jing who was
still sitting in the main driving seat, and reminded her softly: "Academician Wang, the Administration Bureau..."
"Oh no!!"
Wang Jing suddenly came back to his senses, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly called up some data on the holographic panel in front of him.
Looking at the numbers constantly jumping in the holographic interface, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and her tense body leaned back on the seat behind her: "Not bad..."
Chen Fan looked at the relieved Wang Jing with a confused face: "Academician Wang?"
"I just checked the time of the Human Union Main Universe."
Wang Jing explained softly: "From the time we approached the black hole to now, the Human Union Main Universe has only been less than three days."
"In other words, the time dilation effect mainly occurs outside the black hole, and the time dilation effect inside the black hole is completely eliminated."
She glanced at the prompt message on the holographic interface: "Master brain, connect the communication."
...
As soon as the communication was connected, Moore's anxious voice sounded in the cockpit:
"Academician Wang! What's the situation?"
Moore's mood also eased when he noticed the calm atmosphere in the cockpit of the scientific research ship.
He raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "Just now the signal of the scientific research ship was suddenly lost, we thought..."
Although they had the experience of shuttling black hole detectors, the scene of the instantaneous loss of the scientific research ship's signal still brought a lot of psychological shadows to everyone in the management bureau.
After all...
that's how the last TE913 research ship was lost.
A few minutes later.
After briefly reporting the black hole crossing process, Wang Jing took the initiative to cut off the inter-universe broadcast signal from the Dangerous Technology Administration.
"Academician Wang, what is the situation with this anti-universe?"
Seeing the communication interrupted, Chen Fan asked Wang Jing again.
Wang Jing was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "I'm not very clear."
"But I can be sure of one thing, this anti-universe is different from other anti-universes."
"The Human Union once launched an exploration on the opposite side of the hyperspace membrane. Like the material universe we are in, all anti-universes are attached to the surface of the hyperspace membrane."
"In addition..." Wang Jing continued to add, "The Human Union has never found the existence of cosmic bubbles inside the hyperspace membrane."
Chen Fan seemed to have thought of something, and his face changed slightly.
He hesitated and said in a low voice after hesitating for a long time: "Academician Wang, I have an idea."
"Do you think that the node universe was also wandering inside the hyperspace membrane like the anti-universe?"
As soon as this was said, Wang Jing's face changed.
After Chen Fan's reminder, she also thought of the log information left by the TE913 research ship at that time - "The hyperspace membrane slowly opened, and a cosmic bubble emerged from it."
If the node universe "drilled" out of the hyperspace membrane, then the corresponding anti-universe could naturally exist inside the hyperspace membrane!
"But... why didn't it drill out?"
A soft synthesized sound came from behind without warning, startling Chen Fan and the others.
Chen Fan subconsciously looked back, only to see that the red stone that was originally attached to the wall had fallen back to the ground, and floated silently behind him under the effect of the anti-gravity field.
"Yeah..." Wang Jing frowned and murmured in a low voice, "Since the node universe can drill out of the hyperspace membrane, why does the anti-universe still stay inside the hyperspace membrane?"
"Is there some mechanism unknown to the human union in the middle?"
After fruitless thinking, Wang Jing shook his head helplessly and stretched out his hand to operate the main console in front of him: "Anyway, I have to report the situation here to the Human Union Academy of Sciences first."
"I guess those academicians in the Academy who study the pan-universe theory will be busy again..."
Chen Fan was a little surprised and asked subconsciously: "Why do you say that?"
"The research objects of the pan-universe theory are cosmic bubbles and hyperspace membranes. According to existing theories, the universe was born from the big bang of the singularity, and those free singularities were born in the energy and gravity convergence area near the hyperspace membrane." "
In other words, according to existing theories, cosmic bubbles will only appear outside the hyperspace membrane."
"As for the node universe... Since its birth process is unknown and it was discovered outside the hyperspace membrane, strictly speaking, it cannot shake the existing theory." Wang Jing couldn't help but reveal a gloating smile in the corner of her eyes, "But this anti-universe bubble is different. The entire universe bubble is inside the hyperspace membrane, which is almost equivalent to completely overturning the existing pan-universe theory."
"Guess how busy those academicians are?"
Chen Fan's brain twitched and blurted out: "That should be enough to write a lot of papers, right?"
The moment the voice fell, Wang Jing's face instantly became strange.
She looked Chen Fan up and down: "You kid still know about this?"
"Did Song Ziliang tell you?"
Wang Jing narrowed her eyes slightly: "When I return to the Administration, I have to check this kid's paper to see if there is any shoddy content."
Looking at the dangerous smile on Wang Jing's face, Chen Fan shut his mouth wisely, and silently mourned for Song Ziliang for three seconds in his heart.
Old Song, this black pot...
you have to take it firmly!
...
A few minutes later.
"That's all."
Wang Jing clapped her hands and sent a detailed mission report through a cross-universe broadcast: "The next thing is for the academicians of the Academy of Sciences!"
"Pan-universe theory, solutions to the time dilation effect, suspected technology for manipulating time..." Wang Jing sighed with admiration, "I guess many academicians will have to stay up late to work overtime."
"Speaking of which..."
Wang Jing raised her eyebrows and looked at the ghost fleet docked in the starry sky outside the porthole with some surprise: "This ghost fleet... took great pains to lead us to the anti-universe, what exactly do they want to do?"
As if aware of Wang Jing's question, the ghost fleet changed again.
Its hull gradually dissipated, and countless light spots gathered into a huge star map in the dim starry sky.
Slightly different from the star field that Chen Fan had seen in the information interference source before, this star map covers a significantly wider range - it even intimately marked the current coordinates of the scientific research ship!
The star map flickered regularly, and once again conveyed a simple text and a string of coordinates that met the standards of the Human Union to Chen Fan and others.
[Come. 】
The various spots of light quickly dissipated, and the original ghost fleet also disappeared.
Chen Fan stared blankly at the dim starry sky outside the porthole, and his lips moved slightly:
"Run...Run?"
No, buddy?
You took great pains to lead people to the anti-universe, and you turned around and ran away. What does that mean? !
On the other side, Wang Jing had already quickly imported the star map and coordinates into the ship's main brain: "Main brain, compare it with the node universe star map."
As soon as the voice fell, two slightly different star maps appeared in front of Chen Fan and others.
On the left, it was the star map given by the ghost fleet, and on the right, it was the panoramic star map of the node universe.
The next moment, the ship's main brain gave the comparison result: after the mirror reversal, the similarity of the two star maps exceeded 80%.
"It seems that the star map given by the ghost fleet this time is a panoramic map of the anti-universe."
As Wang Jing's murmur sounded, two flashing red dots appeared in the left and right star maps one after another.
Wang Jing reached out and clicked the red dot in the star map of the node universe on the right. The red dot quickly enlarged - the corresponding position was the Varela Galaxy of the node universe!
"We guessed correctly before."
"The ultimate goal of the ghost fleet is to counter the Varela Galaxy."
"What the ghost fleet provided us just now is not so much a star map as a standard navigation map."
"Since it wants us to counter the Varela Galaxy..." Wang Jing pondered for a moment, his eyes firm, "Then let's go and see that galaxy!"
"Master brain!"
Wang Jing sat back in the main driving seat and gave an order in a deep voice: "Start converting high-dimensional coordinate information and start wormhole jump!"
