The strange phenomenon on Ross 154 left everyone stunned.
"What...what's going on?"
Fang Xu muttered to himself, "Is this the death process of a two-dimensional being?"
I can't understand it.
Lu Yongchang frowned and flicked his hand twice in the air.
The holographic projection image was instantly magnified.
The camera focuses on the edge of the gray "scroll".
The fine, dense folds kept increasing.
It looks like... a smooth "painting" is being constantly squeezed by the outside world.
"Zero, retrieve the detector's real-time data," Lü Yongchang suddenly said, as if he had just thought of something. "Can you detect the thickness?"
"Data anomaly".
Zero's response made Lü Yongchang frown even more.
Human civilization, have you thought this through?!
My time is running out!!
The information about the painting reappeared before everyone.
You can clearly feel the other person's anxiety and unease between the lines.
but……
He still couldn't believe the other person.
"Yongchang?"
Hearing Fang Xu's questioning call, he slowly shook his head: "No rush, let's wait a little longer!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a piercing alarm blared in the quiet command center!
"Warning! Warning!"
"Signal from Detector 1 has disappeared!"
The flashing red warning lights constantly jolted the fragile nerves of all the researchers.
The atmosphere in the ground command center became increasingly tense!
In the Earth, far away in geosynchronous orbit, Zhao Zijie stared at the several holographic projections in front of him with a grim expression.
"Professor, should we issue an evacuation order?"
Zhao Zijie's voice also rang out on the communication channel of the ground command center.
"Wait a little longer!"
Lu Yongchang's expression changed slightly, and he stopped Zhao Zijie's actions: "We must not act rashly!"
"If we are perceived as provoking or resisting... death will be our only fate!"
As he spoke, his mind raced.
"Zero, retrieve the records from the other two detectors and see if they captured anything!"
"Also, use the fleet's optical telescopes to review all the records!"
"I need to know what just happened!"
...
The moment the words fell.
The giant holographic image directly in front of the ground command center suddenly split into countless tiny interfaces.
Upon closer inspection, each of the tiny interfaces reveals a separate holographic image.
These images come from individual optical telescopes that operate around Ross 154.
These tiny interfaces are rapidly diminishing at a rate visible to the naked eye.
Soon, only four holographic images remained in front of everyone.
The four images quickly zoomed in, taking up the entire space.
Lu Yongchang glanced at it and immediately frowned.
"That's all the footage?"
“Professor, at that time, the trajectory of the No. 1 probe was exactly different from that of the other two probes,” Zero explained. “These few images were found from the observation records of the optical telescope.”
Lü Yongchang raised an eyebrow.
Perfect?
coincide?
I doubt there could be so many coincidences.
He said noncommittally, "Play the recorded footage first."
Four holographic images were played simultaneously.
The holographic video is very short, only about thirty seconds long.
But those thirty seconds brought Lü Yongchang, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and humanity unparalleled shock and panic!
...
The holographic images from four different angles clearly reproduced the "horrific events" experienced by the probe!
At first, on the surface of Ross 154, a small "fragment" quietly appeared at the edge of that thin gray "scroll".
Like the original painting, this "fragment" is entirely gray.
The only difference is that the fragment that broke off from the painting has a much denser surface wrinkle!
For example, if the wrinkle density on the main body of the painting is 1, then the wrinkle density on this fragment reaches 10!
After separating from the main body, the "fragment" flew straight toward the No. 1 probe next to it!
More than ten seconds later.
The gray "fragment" slammed hard into detector number 1.
In an instant!
The first detector has undergone an inexplicable change!
Its surface emitted a dazzling burst of light!
The moment the fragments collided with it, its height seemed to be erased into thin air!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the three-dimensional detector quickly turned into a sheet of paper!
It successfully transformed into two-dimensional matter!
The two-dimensional detector surface is extremely smooth and flat.
Just like the painting itself.
With the help of a high-precision optical telescope, Lü Yongchang can even see the internal structure of the detector directly!
"Zero, do you have any detection data?"
Lu Yongchang suddenly asked.
Zero didn't speak, but silently unfolded a brand new holographic projection around him.
The projection displays some basic detection data.
When Lü Yongchang saw the instantaneous temperature data on the surface of the detector, he gasped sharply!
1 billion degrees Celsius!
What does this mean?
The temperature at the core of the sun is only 15 million degrees Celsius!
The temperature that triggers nuclear fusion is only a few hundred million degrees Celsius!
It's hard to imagine that such extreme high temperatures could have occurred near the probe in that short instant!
But the changes are not over yet!
Approximately 0.5 seconds later, endless wrinkles appeared on the smooth, two-dimensional surface of the detector!
