Chapter 388: Password!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Using the discussion results from the three-day-long eting, the Academy truly had outperford themselves. Utilizing the AI’s superhuman calculating capability, they ca up with the most possible situation should one enter the green light in under a week.
In the 3D image, no it should be called a 4D image, the 3d construction of a cow was pushed into the green light and it beca turned inside out and kept shifting into impossible things where the form of a cow was completely lost. This shift was more than just the turning its organs or blood vessels inside out, this was more than that... Simply put, it had changed into a jellyfish, where one could look into its organs and it kept vomiting out the organs so its insides beca the outside of the jellyfish.
In this weird 4D image, the cow theoretically should have died, but according to the calculations of the AI, the cow was not only alive, it was surviving better than before.
"Please don’t be shocked, Chancellor."
Beside this giant projection was a large group of scientists and governnt officials. The person responsible for the explanation was physicist Silewei. Obviously, he had discerned the shock on the public’s faces and comnted with a smile, "Even though this cow looks beyond its normal form and you might see it as nothing more than a pile of at, this is actually its true form within a four dinsional space. For example, when an artist draws an apple on a piece of paper, no matter how hard he tries to express the third dinsion through shading and other thods, there would a great section of the apple that wouldn’t be portrayed in drawing. Then is it fair to say that part of the apple doesn’t exist? No, we can only say that such is the apple’s form in two dinsional space.
"Similarly, if we put this apple into one dinsional space, it would have the appearance of a line, and at most it would have color. Here, we are rely inversing the process, from three dinsional space to four dinsional space, thus the form of this cow changed accordingly. Its internal organs, blood, brain, and bones didn’t go through any change because there wasn’t any force to change them. According to physics, if there isn’t any force involved, then it won’t have any changes in its form, so if we remove this cow from the four dinsional space..."
As Silewei said so, the AI was doing the thing in the projection. This ss of at and bones slowly recovered into the cow that we all know and recognize.
Many non-scientists started talking in whispers, obviously they were shaken by this developnt. Among them was Blue 6. Even as a mber of the more advanced Blue Race, four dinsional space was sothing new to him as well. Theoretical stuff existed in theories only, and seeing them in person was a completely different issue. Of course, the precondition was that this simulation was mirroring the real thing.
Suddenly, a mber from the Barracks asked, "Professor, but according to our observations, anything that enters the four dinsional space will be twisted and torn open, so how can this cow revert to its original form after it left the space? That makes no sense."
"It does make sense," Silewei replied with a smile. "As I ntioned earlier, this is what happens when there is no external force. Moving from one dinsion to the next is just a change of form... However, if there is an external force, let’s just say three dinsional creatures are extrely malleable after they travel into four dinsional space."
At this point, Silewei ordered the AI to put the cow back into the four dinsional space, and when that weird at blob appeared again, Silewei walked to stand under the project to lightly blow on it. Then he told the AI to quantify and apply the force in his breath of air onto the cow.
Under everyone’s scrutiny, this at blob started to shiver like a blob of tofu and then so blood started to fall off. Then the more fragile bone marrow and brain matter started to vibrate, while most of the solid bone structure was unaffected and the cartilaginous parts resud to their normal state after a short vibration. However, it was obvious to everyone that this cow was extrely fragile, so fragile that a breath of air could blow it away. If Silewei had used his finger to press at it, the thing probably would have died.
"We are three dinsional creatures, so our body structures, thoughts, speed, and even power are existent in three dinsional laws and data. Even though we can enter four dinsional space without the fear of death, we’ll be extrely fragile. Perhaps a gentle shove could shatter us into a million pieces with no chance of reconstruction."
Here, Silewei paused to let his explanation sink in. Then he continued, "According to our calculation of breaking patterns, damage clauses, and physical structure, we arrived at a vector. After we add this vector into the logarithm, we ca up with the conclusion. After we enter the green light, there will be a pulling force from inside the green light... This force is one-directional, not unlike gravity, and this explains why our pilotless spaceships would disappear and the breaking of the nanoline. The theory is simple, they were torn apart by the conflict of the forces outside and inside the green light.
"In reality, this pulling force needn’t be big; even the most stable diamond, no, even a neutron star fragnt would be shattered by this conflict of forces. This is because three dinsional objects are that fragile in a four dinsional space."
Silewei had a serious tone as he explained and the room listened attentively. Yao Yuan, Guang Zhen, and the group of high officials, though, started to frown. According to Silewei, this green light was a death trap for any object, because they would beco extrely fragile within it. Then this ant that the Hope and the people inside it would be as fragile as tofu when they entered the green light, right?
This green light was practically the kryptonite for everything that existed in normal space!
Guang Zhen finally asked, "Then we have to give up this star path and find another way?"
Silewei shook his head. "That might not be so. This is the result we have obtained after such a long discussion... applying counter-acting pressure using the AI."
As he said so, the cow in the projection had been recovered to its original form. It was placed into four dinsional space again and this ti Silewei suddenly used his fingers to poke at the beast. The AI applied the sa force to the cow, but the creature that was supposed to shatter into pieces stood their unhard; there was not even a vibration. As the cow retreated from the space, it again reverted to its familiar form. According to the AI’s calculation, the cow was extrely healthy and it had received no harm.
"The most threatening thing in four dinsional space is external force, but the thing that can counteract that is also force... With the anti-gravity system and genetic soric technology, these two force-related technologies can completely neutralize the external force that would be applied on the Hope, including the acceleration of the ship, the pulling force within the green light, and the possible damaging effect it could possibly have on the human or any living body. In other words, there is a way that allows us to enter this green light safely!"
Basically, that was the end of this demonstration. Of course, there were still so questions left to be answered, but those would have to be answered in private... In the next month, the Hope would begin surveilling this green light again as it continued to send in more living creatures to confirm whether this green light was a four dinsional space and the direction of its internal pulling force... Even though talk about direction inside a four dinsional space was a bit fussy, it was the best term of reference, and the Hope needed all this data before it could decide whether or not to enter the green light.
After the demonstration, the Hope’s high officials had a smaller eting of their own. The final decision was: if there was still no progress regarding the understanding of the green light in the next year, then the Hope would give up on this star path. They would rather spend another decade looking for another star path than waste any more ti here.
Privately, Guang Zhen also questioned Yao Yuan on the possibility of this ruin being a trap. If this green light was truly a four dinsional space, then creatures from three dinsional space, be it low tier space civilizationw or even middle tier space civilizationw, would be dead once they entered the green light. Therefore, this looked less than a ruin but more like a thod to collect soul.
However, regarding this hypothesis, Yao Yuan, Xiao Niao, and Ren Tao had their suspicions, and their main reason was... hypnosis!
Yes, the hypnosis made all the space civilizations travel here and similarly it had lulled all these civilizations into entering the green light. Just as they discussed during the demonstration, the pulling force inside the green light was a constant, there was no change in terms of acceleration or deceleration. In other words, the hypnosis might have saved these space civilizations’ lives because a spaceship’s speed as they entered the green light and the speed they maintained inside the green light would decide its life or death. The hypnosis was like the password that gave the hypnotized civilizations the speed that they needed to maintain so as not to get crushed by the pulling force inside the green light. On the other hand, humanity that was not hypnotized, so they needed to crack this "password" on their own...
If this hypothesis was to be believed, then this ruin...
Was most likely authentic! And it belonged to a high tier space civilization!
