Chapter 534 Natural Naked Singularity
"What, what?"
Chen Fan's consciousness stared blankly at the deep starry sky that had regained its tranquility, and fell silent for a while.
The whole incident happened too suddenly.
From the huge ghost fleet suddenly appearing in the starry sky to its self-collapse without any signs, the whole process actually lasted less than thirty seconds.
A huge fleet with a scale of the Human Union Peacekeeping Fleet suddenly appeared in thirty seconds, and then suddenly dissipated. Such a scene would make anyone confused.
Not to mention, this fleet also conveyed some confusing information to Chen Fan before it dissipated.
"Your Majesty..."
Chen Fan murmured in a low voice, and the white light on the surface of his consciousness flickered like a light bulb with almost exhausted batteries.
Strictly speaking, this was the second time he heard such a name from the ghost fleet-the last time was in the consciousness space of Kraken, and the ghost fleet directly descended in front of him with the help of Kraken's consciousness.
After hearing this familiar name, the doubts that he had temporarily put aside before emerged again.
Why did the Ghost Fleet call him His Majesty?
If the Ghost Fleet came from the future, then...
did he do something big in the future?
Suddenly.
Before Chen Fan could figure out the answer to this question, a not-so-strong but extremely special tachyon message came from the distant starry sky, interrupting his thoughts.
[Chen Fan, return home immediately! ]
[Repeat, return home immediately after receiving this message! ]
Chen Fan turned his head and looked in the direction where the tachyon signal came from.
It came from the TE1571 research ship behind the battlefield.
As a standard carrier of information flow, the tachyon signal can naturally be interpreted by Chen Fan, so this has become a conventional way of communication - the research ship releases tachyon signals in a unique frequency band to the surroundings, covering approximately the entire universe bubble.
Before the material information technology matured, this was a very useful and stupid way.
After reading the information carried in the tachyon signal, Chen Fan's heart trembled, and he quickly controlled the information flow around him to modify his coordinate parameters.
The surrounding starry sky became blurred again.
Just before the starry sky completely disappeared, Chen Fan subconsciously cast his eyes towards the peacekeeping fleet not far away.
At this moment, the huge fleet has been completely enveloped by the obscure information fluctuations.
But this is not the end.
The undercurrent of information is still spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
...
In the investigator starship, Chen Fan looked at the starry sky outside the porthole with a gloomy expression.
Even though he has returned to the investigator starship, he can still vaguely feel that the disturbing undercurrent of information in the starry sky is rapidly expanding.
In the communication channel, Wang Jing is asking him to verify various information.
"Central black hole, time, cosmic bubble?"
"Is this all the information the ghost fleet has conveyed to you?"
"Just these three words? Are you sure there is nothing missing?"
Wang Jing asked him unwillingly: "This information is a bit too little..."
"And be careful." Chen Fan reminded.
"I know." Wang Jing waved her hands in annoyance. "The Apophis giant scorpion is about to release the second round of time attack. I know I should be careful without the ghost fleet's reminder!"
"Aren't they preparing to evacuate?"
Chen Fan shrugged and spread his hands helplessly: "Academician Wang, this matter is not up to me. I can only be regarded as an antenna that passively receives signals. What information I can receive depends on the sender, right?"
Hearing this, Wang Jing could only sigh deeply.
The words were rough but the truth was not rough. There was nothing wrong with what Chen Fan said.
It's just...
at this sensitive time, the information conveyed by the ghost fleet undoubtedly made the situation more chaotic, and she became more and more uneasy.
——What secrets are hidden in these three simple words that are worth the ghost fleet risking its own collapse to convey?
Yes.
In Wang Jing's view, although she didn't know the specific reason for the ghost fleet's collapse, one thing was certain.
Perhaps it was some kind of drawback of time technology, or perhaps it was interference from other external forces. In short, this sudden collapse was very likely related to the information conveyed by the other party!
Thinking of this, Wang Jing felt as unbearable as an ant crawling over her heart.
Especially, the other party also clearly mentioned the word time.
Time...
Could it be time technology? !
Wang Jing's heart jumped suddenly, and her originally calm mood instantly became hot.
But now is not the time to delve into this matter.
She took a deep breath to suppress her anxiety.
Then, she quickly adjusted the dimensional parameters of the scientific research ship and asked Chen Fan again: "... What do you think of the human union logo of the ghost fleet?"
"Of course it's a good thing."
Chen Fan gave his answer directly without any hesitation: "According to the information currently available, the ghost fleet is very likely to be the future Xinaluo civilization."
"Since the other party has shown the human union logo, to a certain extent, the other party has actually made its position clear to us."
"This also explains why the other party has been helping us unconditionally."
Wang Jing nodded thoughtfully.
There is no pure benevolent civilization in the universe.
But if the two sides are a community of interests, then the other party's actions can be explained.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Jing stopped what he was doing and breathed a sigh of relief:
"Chen Fan, we are ready to evacuate."
Chen Fan nodded silently, raised his hand and pressed the dimensional upgrade button on the holographic control panel.
Boom...
An extremely slight tremor came from the deck under his feet. This was a sign that the investigator starship began to upgrade.
Chen Fan turned his head and looked at the porthole on the side again.
At the end of the sight, the encirclement formed by the peacekeeping fleet still maintained its original appearance, and even the flagship fortress inside it had no intention of retreating.
They were ready to hold on until the last moment.
In the center of the encirclement, after a period of fermentation, the fire of the macro-electronic bomb had now covered the dark blue curtain constructed by the zero-point ray.
"Is it possible that the central black hole is related to time technology?"
Beside him, Isa was frowning, carefully pondering the pitifully short information transmitted by the ghost fleet, trying to find some pattern from these key words: "Or... time technology is related to the cosmic bubble?"
"Be careful... the central black hole..."
She whispered, and the dark blue light in her mechanical eyes flickered.
Listening to Isa's mumbling, Chen Fan couldn't help but smile helplessly.
"Isa, don't worry about this for now, there is too little information..."
Before he finished speaking, the smile on Chen Fan's face froze.
"Wait... Isa, what did you just say?!"
Isa slowly raised her head, her little face under the black hood filled with confusion and bewilderment. She hesitated for a moment: "... Is time technology related to cosmic bubbles?"
"Not this!" Chen Fan scratched his head hard, trying to catch the flash of inspiration that just flashed in his mind, "Next sentence! It's the next sentence!"
"Next sentence..." Isa's face was more confused, "Be careful... the central black hole?"
A flash of inspiration came to her.
Chen Fan sat in the main driving seat in a daze, his originally impatient look gradually subsided, and his eyes gradually widened, revealing a bit of fear that went deep into his bones.
"I understand... I understand..."
"We all got it wrong! The word central black hole is not connected to the words time and cosmic bubble!"
"It should be combined with the first word!"
"The ghost fleet is not telling us to be careful of the time attack of the Apophis giant scorpion, but..."
"Be careful of the central black hole!!"
Chen Fan stood up from the main driving seat and walked to the porthole in two steps.
Boom...
The vibration from the deck under his feet became stronger and stronger, and the investigator starship also began to transform into a four-dimensional state in the vibration.
"Something is wrong!"
Chen Fan's face changed slightly: "Why is the investigator starship still vibrating?!"
Although he has not been in the Administration for a long time, he is more experienced than more than 90% of the investigators in starship dimensionalization - the difficulty of his investigation mission is definitely hell-level.
Therefore, Chen Fan is very clear that under normal circumstances, the vibration during the starship dimensionalization process usually lasts less than three seconds, and this vibration is very slight, and it is easy to ignore it if you don't feel it carefully.
But now...
let alone three seconds, this increasingly strong vibration has even lasted for thirteen seconds!
Almost the next second, Chen Fan realized that something was wrong.
This vibration did not come from the deck under his feet!
It was the starry sky outside the porthole!
It was the entire universe! !
The universe was shaking! ! !
Not only that, in Chen Fan's vague perception, the obscure information fluctuations from the encirclement of the peacekeeping fleet had expanded countless times at some point, and even...
it had crossed the branch fleet responsible for guarding the central black hole and officially arrived at the edge of the central black hole!
At this moment, Chen Fan suddenly understood.
"Be careful!!"
"The target of those giant scorpions... is the central black hole!!!"
Boom!
The second Chen Fan's voice fell, under the influence of the information undercurrent, the entire starry sky shook violently.
Almost at the same time, a dazzling bright yellow light was released from the center of the encirclement. In just a few Planck times, its brightness directly exceeded the dark blue zero-point curtain and the explosion of the macro-electronic bomb.
Boom! !
The second vibration followed.
This time, not only the entire starry sky, but even the central black hole in the distance, also shook violently.
Wow...
During the vibration, the extremely dark black hole fell into a state of stagnation again.
Because the change came too suddenly, countless deep or shallow cracks appeared in the coherent space around the black hole at this moment.
These space cracks were superimposed around the black hole. At first glance, it seemed as if the entire black hole was "cracked" by this strange vibration!
Things did not end at this point.
On the contrary, at the moment when the second vibration just ended, a more powerful vibration roared in!
Boom!!!
Under the influence of this vibration, even the investigator starship shook violently!
Chen Fan's body swayed, and he subconsciously raised his hand to support the porthole beside him.
Since he first entered the investigator starship, this was the first time he felt such a strong vibration on a starship of this level!
But at this time, he had no intention of considering whether this vibration would have any impact on the starship, let alone thinking about the reasons behind this vibration and the possible dangers.
The reason is simple.
In the third and most intense vibration, the central black hole in the distance has changed.
A faint yellow light burst out. Under the influence of the super-strong gravity of the black hole, these bright yellow lights are like flowing mercury, slowly flowing out from the deep event horizon.
Under the influence of the surrounding space cracks that have not yet healed, this flowing bright yellow light is like blood flowing out when the black hole is broken!
Something happened.
After the initial surprise, a strong chill instantly surged into Chen Fan's heart.
Anyone can see that the bright yellow light gushing out from the central black hole is the light of the orange-yellow crystals in the body of the Apophis giant scorpion.
After a little association, a very simple answer emerged in Chen Fan's mind-those Apophis giant scorpions seem to have used some unknown technology to remotely communicate with some objects related to the time crystal inside the central black hole!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One wave has not yet subsided, another wave rises.
The third strong vibration has not yet ended, and three consecutive vibrations of the same level swept from the direction of the peacekeeping fleet!
Like dense drum beats, the vibrations echoed in the starry sky, and then gradually returned to calm.
In the center of the peacekeeping fleet's encirclement, the flames of the macro-electronic bombs shattered in the continuous vibrations, and even the dark blue zero-point curtain gradually dissipated.
The more than 40 giant scorpions that were surrounded reappeared in the starry sky -
they hugged each other tightly, clustered together motionlessly, their bodies showing a strange gray-white color, and they were covered with dense and tiny cracks.
There was a huge pit in the chest of each giant scorpion, and a little faint bright yellow light remained in the depths of the pit.
The light dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye. When this bright yellow light completely dissipated, the more than 40 broken scorpion corpses also trembled slightly and disappeared in the starry sky under the gaze of everyone.
No basic particles remained.
There was no information flow.
The more than 40 scorpion corpses were like bubbles that did not belong to this time and space, and they disappeared in an instant.
In the distance.
The three consecutive vibrations were pulled towards the central black hole by the undercurrent of information.
It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The bright yellow light that flowed slowly like mercury suddenly jumped near the central black hole!
Resonance appeared! !
The central black hole, which was already in an extremely unstable state, also completely exploded at this moment!
The extremely dark event horizon, which was theoretically enough to swallow all the light, suddenly collapsed under the impact of the jumping bright yellow light and the undercurrent of information!
In the shattered event horizon, a [point] that could not be described by color and shape quietly emerged.
Naked singularity.
At this moment, from the beginning of the birth of the universe to the collapse of the universe, a natural naked singularity that would never appear in theory appeared for the first time under this starry sky!
Such a rare "holy object" did not bring the light of hope to this universe.
Instead...
destruction! ! !
