738: Original Matter 724 738: Original Matter 724 Bai Zhongqi didn’t imdiately embark on the “expedition”; although the “loophole” in the Orion Arm had been gambled upon, the malignant growth that the Galactic Empire Fleet had ford within the Orion Arm still needed to be excised.
This ss was handed over to Chief Knight Zang Xingyan, who primarily utilized the force of the Empire Army.
The vast Iridium Star United Empire had already declared a state of ergency for warti, and aside from the various products required for daily life, practically all production power had been shifted to military needs.
This terrifying productivity was beyond imagination: each month, the various shipyards of the Iridium Star United Empire could bring Bai Zhongqi up to 100,000 warships, roughly doubling the size of the Empire Army in just one year.
The great battle with Tai Ruonuo in the Centaurus Arm-5 Star Sector had led to significant losses for Bai Zhongqi, but in a matter of months, Iridium Star had manufactured even more AI warships.
Together with the mobilization and reserves called upon by the Empire Army itself, the Empire Army’s Strategic Fleet groups had grown to 135.
With such a vast fleet at his disposal within the Orion Arm, Zang Xingyan was essentially unbeatable, especially when facing the Galactic Fleet, whose scale was only a third of the Empire Army’s.
Bai Zhongqi was still staying on Iridium Star, not because he doubted Zang Xingyan’s capability or that of the Empire Army.
In fact, from the Centaurus Arm-5 Star Sector, he had seized control of the Galactic Emperor’s chanical Behemoth, turning it into the Universe Titan, and had discovered a mysterious substance in the hands of the Galactic Emperor, strikingly similar in performance and capable of forming various materials.
“I plan to call it primal matter.
Even high-level civilizations, with their thorough understanding of the micro and macro physical worlds, tend to believe that after the universe ford, hydrogen ca first, followed by either equilibrium processes, neutron capture, or fusion reactions, eventually forming various elents through a series of complex reactions.
But in reality, even the big bang theory can only be described as infinitely small in volu, infinitely dense, infinitely hot, and with infinite space-ti curvature, all before the appearance of quarks, electrons, and other microscopic particles.
So, what were the materials before that?
Humanity always harbors all sorts of wishful thinking and tends to asure things they don’t understand with concepts they do understand.
At the very least, the discovery of primal matter has led to wonder if the very origins of the universe ca from these magical substances, which ultimately, under certain conditions, began to lose their capacity to change and turned into the various different material elents,” he mused.
Zero wasn’t particularly interested in these matters, responding with a smile, “The pursuit back to the origin in physics leads to philosophy.
How people view the world cos through their own eyes and consciousness.
Whether primal matter created the universe as we know it doesn’t really concern others.
What I’m interested in is, what help can this primal matter, nad by you, Chancellor, provide to the present Iridium Star United Empire?”
Bai Zhongqi smiled faintly, and as he opened his palm, a group of ungraspable substances continuously combined and changed on his hand, “So much, it’s almost impossible to explain it all.
Every interstellar civilization has attempted to use nanomaterials that can combine and form different functions to build machinery and enhance its variability.
But no matter what nanomaterial it is, we are creating it through its inherent material properties.
For example, glassified smart devices commonly used by everyone utilize silicon and light to create the functions of computers and displays.
But if you want to turn this glass into an extrely hard bullet, or turn it into an aircraft capable of warp flight, that is quite difficult to achieve.
Primal matter is different—it can form all sorts of materials, even fusing different material properties into one.
What you see might look like a piece of glass, but it might actually be a spacecraft capable of warp speed,” he explained.
Zero widened her little mouth in astonishnt, her eyes bulging, “Primal matter can be that incredible?”
“Yes, just this kind of use, for a civilization, almost creates infinite possibilities in manufacturing, not to ntion its impact on energy, space-ti, and even the law of causality.
It’s just that even I find it not easy to completely control primal matter,” he admitted.
Bai Zhongqi was now spending most of his ti studying primal matter, which comprised the Universe Titan.
He also commanded Linyin, along with a large number of scientific researchers, to join this research project.
However, because the whole operation had to be actively manipulated by Bai Zhongqi through the Supre Command, most of the other researchers mainly served to record and provide feedback.
Because this matter was too dreamlike and marvelous, almost all the researchers involved in this project were obsessed to the point of forsaking sleep and food.
If it weren’t for Bai Zhongqi’s inability to work continuously, they might even have literally worked the Chancellor to death.
Linyin, too, reported their significant findings to Bai Zhongqi every day like soone possessed, “Your Majesty, primal matter could potentially be the endga for any scientist’s research.
Just thinking about this makes one feel an apocalyptic sense.
These days, with your manipulation of primal matter via Supre Command, you have successfully assimilated a massive amount of material.
In fact, if needed, you could turn this primal matter into a large fleet in a matter of seconds, surpassing the efficiency of any shipyard.”
Zero, now more inford, was browsing the various experintal reports submitted by Linyin with amazent, “A palm-sized amount of primal matter can, after transforming into a warship, unleash firepower that might match a cruiser?
How imnse must the energy within these substances be?”
Linyin responded, “We’ve observed that if a unit of primal matter releases too much energy, it may lose its characteristics as primal matter, becoming ordinary material.
We’ve tried thods like recharging to transform it back into primal matter, but it doesn’t work.
We can only assimilate it again with more primal matter for it to beco primal matter once more.
We’ve conducted similar experints with all types of materials, and primal matter can assimilate everything.
The Chancellor’s guess that all the materials in the current universe could originate from primal matter is very likely true.”
She paused, tantalizingly adding, “But these are not our greatest discoveries.”
Bai Zhongqi raised an eyebrow, “What else have you discovered?”
Linyin smiled and said, “We discovered that including the Iridium Star Ship, the Golden Great Sail Ship, and the silver fleets of the Elder Race, these creations all seem to be a suppressed, active state of primal matter.
In other words, the Elder Race and primal matter seem to have a special relationship.”
