Chapter 537 Hidden Crisis
"What is the current status of the cosmic bubble?"
Wang Jing calmed down and asked the officer in the communication interface.
"Not very ideal."
Hearing Wang Jing's question, Captain Han's face became solemn again: "Although I don't know what happened in the cosmic bubble, from the outside observation, this cosmic bubble seems to have been greatly impacted."
"At present, it has officially entered the collapse stage."
"Formally collapsed..." Wang Jing's face sank.
Captain Han raised his hand and operated on the holographic interface beside him: "I just received the test report from the Genesis Fortress. You can take a quick look." As
soon as the voice fell, a brand new holographic interface filled with a large amount of complex data quietly appeared in front of Wang Jing.
"..."
She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked carefully at the data in the holographic interface.
A moment.
Wang Jing retracted her gaze and sighed silently: "What are you going to do next?"
"According to the order of the Academy of Sciences, the joint fleet will escort you and Chen Fan back to the main universe of the human union at all costs!"
Looking at the extremely serious expression on Captain Han's face, Wang Jing subconsciously glanced at the holographic interface beside her - on it, the black light generated by the naked singularity was still slowly spreading around, but without the "new singularity source" like the human union fleet, the spread of the black light was obviously much slower.
What exactly is this black light?
Why can it have such a huge impact on the universe bubble?
More importantly, what is its connection with time technology?
Countless confusions emerged in Wang Jing's mind.
The desire to explore the unknown is an indispensable quality for a top scientist, and Wang Jing is no exception, especially since this thing involves many technologies that the human union has not yet mastered.
She looked at Captain Han again and moved her lips slightly.
Perhaps he noticed something from Wang Jing's eyes. Before Wang Jing could speak, Captain Han smiled bitterly: "Academician Wang, the Academy of Sciences has told you to leave the anti-universe bubble as soon as possible for safety reasons."
"After all..."
Wang Jing pursed her lips, and after a moment of silence, she nodded helplessly: "I understand, I will start the starship upgrade..."
"Wait, wait!"
Listening to the conversation between the two, Chen Fan, who had been acting as a background board, finally couldn't sit still.
He jumped up from the main driving seat: "If I heard it correctly, you... are you ready to give up this universe bubble directly?"
Suddenly hearing the voice of others, Captain Han frowned subconsciously, but when he saw that the person who spoke was Chen Fan, his frown was slightly relieved, and his tone was also a little softer: "Yes, the Academy of Sciences has issued an order..."
Chen Fan stared at Captain Han in the communication interface in a daze.
Although Captain Han's attitude was very gentle, at this moment, he could no longer listen to the other party's subsequent explanations - the moment he got a positive answer, he once again felt an extremely strong sense of panic in his heart.
It was as if...
he was about to lose something extremely important to him.
In fact, a similar feeling had appeared once a long time ago.
When he first learned that the anti-universe bubble was about to collapse, he had this inexplicable emotion in his heart.
"...What about the information flow generated by the collapse of the universe bubble?" Chen Fan suddenly came back to his senses and asked anxiously, "Captain Han, you should know that once the universe bubble collapses, the polluted information flow it generates will have a devastating impact on the human-union universe!"
"If we can prevent the collapse of the universe bubble..."
"No need to be so troublesome." Captain Han interrupted Chen Fan's words, "The five Genesis Fortresses brought by the joint fleet have completed the preliminary transformation of material informatization. They can simply build information barriers. The Academy of Sciences is preparing to use this to divert and block the line of sight of the polluted information flow for the first time." "
At the same time, the Academy of Sciences is allocating more Genesis Fortresses near the node universe to minimize its impact on the territory of the human union."
Chen Fan was speechless.
Unexpectedly, the Academy of Sciences has done so much response work in such a short time.
“But…”
“If we retreat now, won’t all our previous work be wasted?”
“Time technology, naked singularities, and the advanced civilizations behind the Apophis scorpions…”
Chen Fan could only look at Wang Jing for help. Perhaps because the panic in his heart was getting stronger, his words seemed a little incoherent: “By the way, there is also the broadcasting civilization!”
“Since the collapse of the cosmic bubble has stopped, why can’t we investigate it first…”
Wang Jing sighed lightly and shook his head slowly: “Chen Fan, things are not that simple.”
“I just read the observation report of the Genesis Fortress. The cosmic bubble has entered the stage of formal collapse.”
“At present, the Genesis Fortress can only temporarily create some rule-space chimera patches to slow down the progress of its collapse.”
“Although the situation is stable now, no one knows when this thing will collapse again.”
“Remember what I said before?”
"This cosmic bubble is very similar to the node universe, but its toughness and stability are not as good as the node universe. Therefore, the Genesis Fortress cannot reverse its collapse process."
Hearing this, Chen Fan fell into silence.
As the panic in his heart continued to grow, the little bit of scarlet blood gradually climbed up his eyes.
"No, no, no..."
Under the gaze of Wang Jing and Captain Han, he staggered back half a step, and then stared straight at the camera with his bloodshot eyes: "In short, don't give up!"
"No matter what, I will never give up this universe!!"
Captain Han frowned again.
"Academician Wang, this..." He looked at Chen Fan, who seemed to have been touched, and chose to kick the ball to Wang Jing.
Your subordinates, you solve it.
Unlike Captain Han, Wang Jing suddenly recalled the strange feeling about the anti-universe bubble that Chen Fan had described to her when she saw Chen Fan's obviously out of control emotions.
Could it be that...
Wang Jing's face changed slightly: "Captain Han, this matter may be a bit complicated. The fleet... wait a little longer." "
I will come forward to explain to the Academy of Sciences."
Captain Han slowly put out a question mark: "?"
No, sister?
Is this how you solve the problem for me?
He hesitated to speak, but looking at Wang Jing's unusually determined look, he could only sigh heavily - there was no way, after all, he was a Class I academician.
"I will notify Genesis Fortress and try to buy you some time."
"But... don't get your hopes up."
...
"Are you feeling the same way as last time?"
After cutting off the communication with Captain Han, Wang Jing stared at Chen Fan, who was helped back to the driver's seat by Hongshi and Isa. A trace of anxiety that was imperceptible to others flashed in her eyes.
Various mysteries are like a ball of wool, completely entangled together.
Coupled with the crises that broke out one after another.
The pressure Wang Jing faces at this time is definitely not less than that of Chen Fan!
"...Yes."
With the comfort of Hongshi and Isa, Chen Fan, who had regained his composure a little, took a deep breath: "But not entirely."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Similar to the symptoms last time, I do have a sense of panic that I have lost something important." Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, "But it's not just this."
"I always feel that..."
"We may have overlooked something."
Chen Fan frowned and murmured in a low voice: "And... it's a very important thing."
"Chen Fan, I also know the importance of this universe bubble, but you have to be clear." Wang Jing's eyes were more worried, "Our current position is just 'below' the node universe. If we drag it on like this, if the anti-universe bubble suddenly collapses, the Genesis Fortress will not have time to build an information barrier, and the node universe will undoubtedly face an extremely terrifying information flow impact directly. At that time..."
"...Node universe?"
Chen Fan's expression moved slightly, and he whispered to himself.
Seeing that Chen Fan's attitude had loosened, Wang Jing hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "Yes, even if we continue to investigate later, we must at least ensure the safety of the node universe, right?"
"Node universe...node universe..."
Chen Fan's tone suddenly became excited: "I seem to know where the problem is!"
Wang Jing: "?"
According to what she said just now, Chen Fan didn't listen to it at all!
"Academician Wang!"
Chen Fan ignored Wang Jing's murderous look: "This cosmic bubble is very similar to the node universe, isn't that right?"
Wang Jing nodded silently: "Of course, the structures of the positive and negative universes are very similar."
"And there is a macro channel between the anti-universe and the node universe, right?
" "Isn't it obvious?" Wang Jing frowned, "What do you want to say?"
"I mean..."
Chen Fan's face turned pale, and he swallowed hard: "Academician Wang, do you think... the cosmic membrane of the node universe also contains the same contaminated information flow?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire communication link instantly fell into a dead silence.
Inside the research ship, Wang Jing froze in her seat.
"And..."
Chen Fan's faint voice was like a demon whisper from hell, lingering in Wang Jing's ears, bringing her a piercing chill: "Under the influence of the macro channel, if the anti-universe collapses suddenly, do you think the node universe will also collapse..."
"Hiss!!"
Wang Jing took a breath of cold air.
At this moment, Wang Jing felt like she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Fuck..." She shuddered slightly and murmured in a low voice: "This time, something really bad has happened..."
...
Node universe, star gate.
Brilliant light came from the huge star gate in front of the control tower. Each flash of light meant that a starship had passed through this young star gate that had just started to operate.
Mochi sat in the exclusive seat of the tower, lifted his furry little legs on the round control console, squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the azure holographic interface floating in front of him.
A series of complex numbers kept popping up on it, and then disappeared in the flashes outside the porthole.
"What a pity..."
"This damn place is full of engineering ships."
Mochi looked at the starships of similar styles that shuttled out of the star gate, then quickly upgraded and finally disappeared in the star gate universe, and curled his lips with boredom.
"Those engineers are so boring. The souvenir shop that I spent a lot of effort to approve has no business."
"I don't know when the node universe will be developed into a tourist attraction..." Moshu shook his short legs comfortably and complained to himself, "It's still easier to make money from those low-level civilizations."
"By the way! I have to find some time to start the high-dimensional space tourism project. This thing is absolutely attractive to those low-level civilizations!"
Perhaps thinking of the days of making money later, the black and white hair on Moshu's body slowly expanded, and a smile of longing appeared on his face.
"Beep-beep-"
A crisp prompt sound suddenly sounded, interrupting Moshu's daydream.
"Who is it..."
He muttered in a shrill voice, then raised his claws and swiped twice on the holographic interface.
"... Academician Wang Jing?!"
He exclaimed, and suddenly jumped up from his seat, while frantically tidying up the table with a pile of snacks: "Oh my god, why did Academician Wang suddenly..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Jing's face appeared in the communication interface.
"... Academician Wang, greetings to you."
Moshu quickly patted the scattered snack residues on his body, and greeted him respectfully: "You... want to talk to me about something?"
"Moshu, start the stargate at full power and clear out all irrelevant personnel!"
"...Okay, I'll do it right away!" After a brief daze, Moshu's originally relaxed expression quickly became solemn.
Although he didn't know what happened, with his many experiences in controlling the stargate in the past, he already had some guesses in his mind -
a big guy is coming!
He skillfully pressed buttons on the main console, methodically suspended the transportation work of each channel, and issued an emergency clearance order to the entire stargate universe.
As the tachyon order spread rapidly, one engineering ship after another began to upgrade dimensions and left the stargate universe in unison.
"Also, notify all engineering ships around the node universe." Wang Jing's voice continued, "Suspend all operations and immediately move away from the node universe!"
"After this jump is completed, temporarily close the star gate and cut off all information exchange between the star gate universe and the outside world in one direction."
Mashu's face changed, and the claws that operated the star gate trembled slightly.
Node Universe, what happened?
Why did Wang Jing suddenly issue such a wartime order?
Could it be that...
Mashu didn't dare to think too much, and once again accelerated his actions.
"Ding!"
The prompt sounded, and a highest priority star gate shuttle request suddenly appeared in front of him.
Mashu pressed the consent button without hesitation.
Buzz...
The azure zero-point energy gushed out from the zero-point energy reactor array under the star gate, and flowed along the thick energy channel towards the star gate in normal working condition!
The moment the energy poured in, the space-time fluctuations around the star gate suddenly increased dozens of times.
Rumble...
In the gradually dazzling light, a huge monster slowly drilled out from the depths of the star gate.
"This is..."
Looking at the angular giant structure that gradually appeared in the starry sky, Mashu subconsciously held his breath.
"Genesis Fortress?"
"And it's a sub-flagship fortress with a scale of fifty light years?!!"
