There were no expected large-scale rebels, no overwhelming energy beams, and not even a single defensive turret. When the jump was completed, we entered an incredibly quiet space soup.
Space soup... This is really a weird term, but when Tavel coined this new term, we found that only it can adapt to the conditions at the core of the Great Nebula, even if it sounds so contradictory.
"The density of space clouds outside the barrier has approached the critical point of liquid state, but they still maintain the shape of discrete dust mist, roughly like a gel in an evaporated state. These gels are pure random atomic crystals. In theory, they can
The basic substances of birth can be found in those atoms, but what is confusing is that these substances have lost all their properties, do not react, do not decay, and do not even produce electromagnetic force or any kind of interaction force with each other.
, it’s as if every atom is floating in an independent absolute vacuum and maintains absolute zero.”
Tavel stood behind us, his tone full of confusion.
"A snapshot of the matter in the universe," Sando held the disobedient strands of blond hair close to her ears, "Don't you think it's very similar? All the matter in the universe is gathered here, but they are as quiet as if they were carved into the portrait.
, the primordial soup of the universe, the core of the Great Nebula turns out to be this kind of thing.”
The bunch of nouns in Shandora's mouth, my sister, my sister, and Qian Qian all expressed that they were too profound and too lazy to understand, but the wonderful sights around us really made people feel extremely novel.
In the space where the Death Star fleet is located, there is an endless dark red "thick fog", and its area is conservatively estimated to be 0.35 light-years. As Tavel described, this smoke almost has a liquid-like texture.
, but also have the lightness of mist, they are full of various strange properties, such as the elusive non-attenuation permeability - according to common sense, a cloud of uniform density of smoke will affect visibility, and this is called
The smoke in the space soup is still so thick, but in fact, when we look far away, the huge planet fortress and the swarm-like aircraft carrier battle group in space are still clearly distinguishable. No matter how far away the units are, they are all visible to us.
It shows exactly the same clarity, which shows that some of the properties of light have failed here.
A bright energy lightning flashed across the sky above the Imperial Admiral, illuminating a large area of the sky. The rolling thick red mist then shook and spread out in countless ripples. This was a silent thunder.
, similar energy lightning can be seen from time to time in places as far as the eye can see. This is another strange scene near the core of the Great Nebula. These criss-crossing lightnings erupt anytime and anywhere, but we can't find their source.
The energy seems to be generated out of thin air and does not follow any known physical laws. When they break through the red mist, they will produce a violent shock wave, which is even enough to boil the "space soup" with a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.
But there is no sound propagation - with such an abundant medium, light does not diffuse or refract, and sound does not propagate. God knows how far the laws of the universe have been distorted in this damn place.
And, what is that thing that is blocking us right now?
A barrier blocked the Death Star fleet from moving forward. Now it still stands firmly hundreds of millions of kilometers away, intact and extremely smooth. The attacks of the Emperor's Breath and psionic naval cannons did not leave any scratches on it.
, the images returned by the frontline detection aircraft revealed to us the true face of this barrier.
A spherical defensive barrier with a radius of about 60,000 kilometers. Its surface is absolutely smooth, just like a rainbow-colored mirror. Magnificent colors are constantly floating on the smooth spherical surface, like a dream. It is this layer of colorful layers that looks exquisite and like a work of art.
The barrier has blocked two attacks from the Death Star fleet, one was the extremely close-range Emperor's Breath, and the other was the concentrated bombing of the entire mobile fleet and a planet fortress, but these two attacks failed to have any effect, the target
It still exists, and there is no forced blood deduction.
Tavel has used a special method to find out the shape of this thing. It is a magnificent thin film, nothing more. The only thing worthy of attention is that it does not belong to any kind of substance. This thin film is an absolute single body. It has no
The structure is not composed of smaller elementary particles, atoms, or molecules. This thin film is its most basic material structure, and its solidity has reached the law level.
After confirming the shape of this barrier, Sandora immediately prevented the Death Star fortress from launching the final attack, and then told me a term in a very depressed manner: indestructible structure.
This is one of several legal defense methods that were popular during the heyday of the empire. Its protective power is not the strongest, but it is widely used in places where various confidential files are kept. Its principle is difficult to explain in words, but let’s just say this
It should be understood that in any world, there is a basic structure that cannot be divided again.
Is matter exhausted when it is divided to the limit? This philosophical proposition has troubled generations of white-bearded old men, including Aristotle, Pythagoras and Mozi, these great and annoying figures in human history.
The characters imagined one experiment after another to verify these problems. For example, the Chinese version of the theory holds that if you split a piece of wood from the middle with an ax every day, as long as you are good at cutting and patient enough, you can have endless descendants, even if that is the case.
The unlucky wood has been split into nanometer-level flakes by you. The ancient Greeks believed that matter is composed of a kind of "small spheres" when it is extremely small. They are the smallest, most basic and most basic in the world.
The original material structure is the bricks and tiles used by God to build this universe. Mortals can never divide them. At most, they can separate them. Let us sigh at the pain of God. It is so troublesome to create the world from the beginning.
I don’t dare to take the exam for Creation.
Through generations of efforts, later generations of scientists finally proved that the above two statements were almost nonsense.
Thanks to the continuous development of modern physics, humans have gradually discovered molecules, atoms, neutrons, electrons... Whenever a theory points out that humans have mastered the most basic bricks and mortar of the world, there will always be new discoveries to prove it.
These so-called bricks and tiles are just smaller-scale prefabricated boards. Matter is still divided by humans under ever-deepening microscopic conditions. Up to now, even human scientists have studied to the level of neutrinos-now
The tiniest elementary particles known and have been measured, but it seems that everything is not over yet. More smaller material structures that have not yet been measured, but theoretically exist are not far away and are heading towards those who like to challenge the limits.
Scientists are beckoning, and humans have begun to doubt whether matter can really be split infinitely, although this conjecture cannot be confirmed at all.
Human scientists may still have a long way to go on the road to splitting the world, but now they have glimpsed some wonderful scenery on this road. A well-known truth applies to all matter, from micro to macro.
, that is, the smaller the elementary particles are to be broken down, the higher the energy level is required. The force required to break a chopstick can be done with the biceps, but it takes billions of degrees to break apart a carbon atom.
At high nuclear temperatures, the process of decomposing protons requires an accelerating orbit that is enough to circle the Beijing Third Ring three times to gather enough energy to feed 100,000 video game geeks for bombardment. In order to perform surgical operations on elementary particles below neutrinos,
, it is currently believed that it requires at least the energy of the early stage of the Big Bang to achieve this. This is the true meaning of matter, the ferocity of the microscopic world. Their indestructible structures gradually approach invincibility as they continue to get closer to the origin, and when they become extremely microscopic, they become the components that make up the world.
After the most basic elements - a fuzzy state between matter, energy and information - these little things become immune to all non-law external factors.
In Dingdang's collection of books, "Introduction to Basic Creationism-Theistic Edition", Chapter 3, Section 7, Section 7, Nature, spends most of the class instilling this iron law to the rookie creation gods:
Unless you think that your creation science skills have surpassed God the Father, then just follow this material classification method to create the world!
So, looking around, the microscopic worlds in the multiverse are uniformly majestic and domineering.
The "non-destructible structure" is something created by Xiling scientists according to a basic law that even the gods must abide by. It does not have any structure in any sense, because... this thing is the basic structure.
Although this thing has moved from the microscopic world to the macroscopic universe under the study of those ferocious imperial scientists, and their size can be expanded to a few tenths of a light-year, it is still the simplest, most perfect, and most pure "absolute basic"
Particle, an absolute "one". This is a pure structure that cannot be further divided. You will not find any traces of connection or fusion on it. It can be called the best interpretation of seamlessness. And it is easy to draw a
The conclusion is: something without structure cannot be cut.
Because it can no longer be split, the surface of the "non-destructible structure" is "complete" in an absolute sense, and there are no structural conditions for it to be split. We may be able to easily break apart a piece of carbon crystal.
Because even the purest and hardest carbon crystal is composed of countless atoms, it also has a structural form that can be cut open. And if what is placed in front of you is a carbon atom, then unfortunately, if you want to cut this thing
You can only apply for a saturation nuclear strike - and that may not work. As for the magnificent structure in front of us with a radius of about 60,000 kilometers, what you need may be a big bang.
"The law-level defense system, the gap between laws and non-laws is so big, I didn't expect that they would even use this thing."
Sandora sighed and said.
"Hey, since there is such a nb shield, why are those rebel fleets fighting for our lives for several hours?" Lilina curled her lips angrily, "There are so many undead souls that need to be appeased. It is the business of the goddess priest.
The quantity is also very large.”
"Because although the Imperial Army cannot break through this barrier, it still threatens to destroy it together with the core of the Great Nebula," Sandora looked depressed, "'Indestructible Structure' is definitely not an invincible protector.
Compared with the true invincibility of the 'parsec', the shield is just a super strong wall. It is a wall and can collapse. It just requires enough external force, and the supernova explosion attack of the psionic Death Star
It should be enough to reach this threshold. After all, it is called the ultimate weapon of the emperor. Its power cannot be underestimated... Don't be happy, Ajun. This is the troublesome part, and it is also the reason why I stopped you just now.
The reason for launching a supernova explosion attack. Since it is a basic particle that cannot be broken down, this barrier will only have two states after activation. The first is its current complete state, and the second is that it has been subjected to a force far greater than its current state.
After withstanding the attack of the ability, it is instantly 'volatized' from the material world. This process is similar to nuclear annihilation, but the energy generated is even more amazing. It will 100% destroy the secrets it protects inside. This is the ultimate self-destruction.
Without a password, a safe will either not open or the treasure inside will be blown to ashes - you can think of it as a switch with only two states of '0' and '1'
, Under normal circumstances, the things stored in this kind of structure are extremely confidential information, and when they may be stolen, their depositors will not even hesitate to destroy them."
Do you believe me if I want to curse people now?
You said it's not good for Xiling people to do some research on a daily basis. If you are drilling holes in the laws of the world all day long, you are not afraid that one day the world will collapse, right?
I understand what Sandora means, that is, the barrier that is blocking our eyes now, although it is extremely strong, can still be broken if the psionic Death Star attacks with all its strength, but the result is that everything inside it will also be destroyed.
Destroyed, Sylvia is still inside, which makes us take action.
"Um... In this case, how did Sylvia get in?"
"I don't know," Sandora shook her head in frustration. "Only now do I realize how little we know about Sylvia. No one cares about what she usually does..."
"Wait a minute, Arjun," my sister suddenly remembered something, "could it be related to the mysterious summons that Sylvia received that night?"
Mysterious summons... After being reminded by my sister, I finally connected what happened that night, so I quickly told Shan that Sylvia was attracted by the core of the Great Nebula and ran out in the middle of the night to go to outer space.
Dora, the latter thought for a moment and said decisively: "It is most likely...where are the ravens? Call all the raven troops on the ship."
There are more than a thousand ravens on duty on the Imperial Admiral, all of them are officer-level elites among the lower-level ravens. Under Sandora's personal summons, they gathered in front of us at an extremely fast speed and looked around.
More than a thousand silver-haired people were slowly getting ready in front of them.
"Can you feel the position of the mother's body?"
"There is no way to sense it. The mother body actively blocks her own energy," Raven 001, the leader of the Raven Legion who has been promoted to senior commander, immediately replied.
"So, the last soul backup that Sylvia left before leaving should be recorded in your place, right?"
The raven leader, who had a sluggish expression on his face but was not sluggish at all, nodded.
Shandora pointed to the magnificent barrier that was still clearly visible behind hundreds of millions of kilometers of thick fog: "Lead your people there. I think you will naturally know what to do when you get there."
A trace of confusion flashed in the eyes of the leader of the raven, but he still accepted the task without hesitation. He led thousands of arcane masters who were very dim-witted and disappeared in front of our eyes in an instant, using space magic for hundreds of millions of kilometers.
Teleported there, they really have unlimited blue.
"Then what?"
I looked at Sandora in confusion. She was very unclear when assigning tasks. It was even more impossible for me to guess what this girl was planning. Forgive me for my mortal IQ.
"Wait," Shandora breathed out, "the non-destructible structure is used as a safe. Of course, there must be a way for its setter to open it. Sylvia... No, what Bellavilla is good at is
Mysterious energy control, which means that this structure can be temporarily closed by arcane magic and the like. As its mass-produced copy, Raven will usually record a snapshot of Sylvia's soul, if the latter is near the barrier
Leaving behind the energy fluctuations of the magic used, Raven can use the fluctuations of Sylvia's soul recorded by himself to reproduce that magic without knowing its principles - after all, the magic used by the Raven King is far beyond ordinary
As far as a raven can understand.”
"Look over there!" As soon as Shandora finished speaking, Qianqian noticed something with sharp eyes, and immediately grabbed my sleeve and shook it violently, "It flashed over there! It flashed!"
I looked in the direction of her finger, just in time to see that damn structure flash again. The magnificent surface with large expanses of color floating on it was like a neon light with poor contact, flickering on and off, and finally dimmed completely.
, the beautiful color disappeared, and it turned into a gray-white ball with a radius of 60,000 kilometers and covered with bright yellow grids.
The ravens succeeded!
The radius of the core ruins of the Great Nebula is only 60,000 kilometers. Of course, it is impossible for the Death Star fleet to enter. And if there is a super defense force inside, sending a few Eternal-class motherships to accompany it will not make any difference. Of course, at this time, a few
The leader took action, and after a little discussion, Shandora, Qianqian, Pandora sisters, and myself, a group of five people became the action team this time (Ding Dong, who has been reduced to a non-combat pet, and Ah, who is in the expansion package).
Raye will naturally follow, but in theory, I don’t think they can be considered team members except when they are acting cute...), onee-sama will stay on the spaceship and watch Lilina, Mercury Lantern, and Li Lina, who may start fighting at any time.
There are all kinds of other troublesome little guys, such as the group of three-headed people who have to follow their elder brothers to get there.
Come on, looking at the Titan mercury lantern that stands more than 100 meters high in the sky and is used as a carrier ship, with hundreds of three-headed mercury lanterns drilled into the folds of its clothes, and looks like it is planning to carry out the mercury lantern lowering operation plan, I guess.
At that time, except for the ability to complain, all my fighting power will be lost!
Oh, by the way, in addition to our five combat professions, we also have to count an additional person - Tavel, a bespectacled girl who has been excited by the possible treasures of knowledge in the ruins. This is a person who wants to follow you more than stalking.
Lilina is also a fanatical guy. I can't refuse the simple enthusiasm of an explorer who is passionate about knowledge - this is nonsense. In fact, I can't bear Tavel's face of "If you don't agree to it, I will marry you on the spot."
Although the specific content may be suspected of being imaginary, my intuition tells me that if I don’t agree to this research maniac’s request, the other party may cry, make a fuss, or hang himself on the spot.
Considering that a knowledgeable researcher like Tavel might be able to help with the in-depth exploration of an ancient Xiling ruins, and her mass projection state is not afraid of death, we agreed to let her accompany us.
"You guys are such a fool for taking risks yourself." When he took the mercury lamp off his shoulders and placed it on the ground, the little doll was obviously a little worried but still had a tough mouth. "Don't die in there, otherwise you will get there.
It will be troublesome to recall your name sometimes."
...What a bold farewell. As soon as I said this, the mercury lamp was dragged away by my sister for training.
Lilina's farewell words were even more ferocious, and I couldn't recall them for three seconds after she said them: "Remember, the goddess is in your left pocket. You must use it in time when you are in danger!"
It feels like the wife seriously told her careless husband before leaving, "Put the cold medicine in the inner compartment of the suitcase, and remember to take the medicine before going to bed." Asshole!
When Dingdang heard Lilina's words, he got out of my pocket with a curious look on his face, and then with a cheerful smirk, he flew to the right pocket like a mischief, and slipped in with a chirping sound.
"Ah, boss, it's the right side now, remember to use it in time...ah, it hurts~!"
"Okay, just don't say a few words without a door. No matter how dangerous it is, can it still hurt me? At worst, it will transform into a void." I rubbed Lilina's head vigorously, and then felt confident
He stood up and waved goodbye to the three-headed people on the deck, "Don't worry, everyone, I will be safe... uh uh uh..."
Sandora covered my mouth and dragged me back: "Even I know I can't say this!"
