Chapter 4 Transmission across the universe
Chen Fan shuddered.
Communication link? Transmission across the universe?
What the hell?
What the hell is this? !
Although his mind was a little fuzzy at this moment, he still instinctively realized the problem.
A strong sense of uneasiness rose in Chen Fan's heart.
Before he had time to think about it, the obscure whispers that he could barely bear suddenly became louder.
It was like tens of thousands of radios were emitting the noise of signal loss in his ears!
A stronger sense of dizziness also swept over!
The next second.
In a familiar strong feeling of falling, Chen Fan completely lost consciousness.
...
In the dark and silent universe, a black hole was quietly devouring all the matter around it.
Around it, the accretion disk formed by a large amount of plasma matter emitted a dazzling light as it continued to rotate and fall.
The center of the light was a deep and extremely dark.
Under the strong gravitational force of the black hole, even light itself could not escape from it.
It is the most advanced celestial body in the universe, and no matter what material can stop its might -
in theory.
In fact... this extreme celestial body that should have dominated the universe has become a "toy" imprisoned in a cage.
One by one, "cables" made of unknown materials are intertwined and woven into a huge spherical cage, which firmly binds the black hole and the accretion disk around it.
The camera keeps zooming in. Next to this cage, a huge building in the shape of a Mobius ring is running quietly.
The strong radiation and strong gravity around the black hole have no effect on this huge structure that is larger than most stars in the universe.
The Dangerous Technology Administration under the Pan-Universe Human Alliance is located in this magnificent megastructure.
"The signal strength fluctuates abnormally!"
"The inter-universe ultra-long-distance transmission encountered an unknown error and the wormhole cannot be opened!!"
Inside the building, researchers in white coats were anxious and reported loudly the alarm information that popped up on the holographic projection.
Moore looked calmly at the huge azure holographic image in front of the command center, and his eyes also revealed a bit of anxiety and panic.
"Stabilize the signal immediately!"
"The last signal sent back by the TE913 research ship is in this area!"
Moore gave an order in a deep voice: "It's not easy to find a signal in the same frequency band. No matter whether the other party is the TE913 research ship or not, no matter what method is used, I must contact this signal source today!"
As soon as the voice fell, a bright red flashed on the azure holographic projection, and a piercing alarm sounded.
"Director, the signal is completely lost!!"
"The target signal can no longer be found!"
Hearing this, Moore's face suddenly became ugly.
This was the case with the TE913 research ship at the beginning. In just a moment, it lost contact with the Dangerous Technology Administration.
He took a deep breath and calmed his inner anxiety and uneasiness: "Academician Song, do you have any clues?"
Faced with Moore's question, the researcher hesitated for a moment and responded in a low voice: "Combined with the data sent back by the TE913 research vessel before it lost contact and the latest observation information, we suspect that there is a complex cosmic bubble in the area."
Moore was shocked: "You mean..."
"It is possible that the signal source and the TE913 research vessel fell into a cosmic bubble that has not yet been discovered by humans?"
In humans' research, the universe is a series of "small bubbles" scattered in five-dimensional space.
These "small bubbles", called cosmic bubbles, are scattered irregularly on a hyperspace membrane that runs through the entire five-dimensional space.
The TE913 research vessel is a research vessel with five-dimensional navigation capabilities.
To make an inappropriate analogy, if a research vessel in a five-dimensional navigation state is compared to a ship sailing on the sea, then the cosmic bubbles are independent bubbles attached to the seabed.
In response to Moore's inquiry, Academician Song raised his hand to support the glasses on his nose, and then nodded seriously: "In theory, it is like this."
Moore's heart sank: the target fell into an unknown cosmic bubble with a complex structure, which means that the difficulty of contacting it will be greatly increased!
"Anyway, first perform dimensionality reduction conversion of coordinates." Moore calmed down and gave an order, "The signal source has just disappeared, and the coordinates will not be too much offset."
Academician Song nodded, returned to his seat and began to input the corresponding information. Dimensionality
reduction conversion of high-dimensional coordinates is a very tedious and complicated task, which is absolutely beyond human power!
But for the mastermind of the Dangerous Technology Administration, this conversion work is not complicated.
In just a few dozen seconds, a string of complicated numbers appeared on the huge holographic projection in front.
This is the four-dimensional coordinates of the signal source just now!
"No corresponding signal detected in the four-dimensional coordinates!"
As a warning sign popped up on the projection, Academician Song's calm voice came from the side: "Now start the three-dimensional coordinate conversion..."
Moore's eyes drooped slightly, hiding the uneasiness in his eyes.
"Found it!"
With a crisp prompt sound, Academician Song's tone instantly rose: "The comparison work has been completed, and the target has been confirmed to be the original signal source."
"The coordinates have been relocated!"
"Restart the cross-universe transmission!"
...
"Huh!"
Chen Fan suddenly opened his eyes and panted violently with a look of horror.
The obscure murmur seemed to still echo in his ears, and there were also waves of slight dizziness in his mind.
"What just now... was it a dream?"
Chen Fan put his hands behind his back and touched his clothes soaked with cold sweat.
A slightly cool breeze blew in from the open wooden window, taking away some of the remaining warmth from his body.
He shuddered and subconsciously looked up at the wall.
The dim starlight shone through the window onto the painting, and the gods in the painting looked down at him with a condescending attitude as always - without any surprises, he was still in this terrible, weird world.
Chen Fan sighed helplessly and let go of the inexplicable expectation in his heart.
"What cross-universe transmission..."
Chen Fan laughed self-deprecatingly, raised his hand and gently patted his overheated cheeks: "It's crazy..."
Talking to himself, he lay down on the somewhat uncomfortable bed again.
Suddenly.
A subtle light burst out without warning beside his bed!
The soft light quickly dispelled the darkness in the room, and also attracted Chen Fan's attention.
He widened his eyes with a little bloodshot, moved his dry and cracked lips, but did not make any sound.
Faced with this unexpected incident beyond his understanding, he seemed to be able to only stand there in a daze and act as a bystander.
