This red light curtain is not far away from Xiao Yu. After measurement, this light curtain is about 10 billion kilometers away from the star. And Xiao Yu discovered that this light curtain is moving at 1.6 kilometers per second.
The speed on the left and right is constantly shrinking inward.
"According to this shrinking speed, it will indeed reach its minimum point in about two hundred years, but don't forget, this is a red giant... Its diameter itself has reached 60 million kilometers, even with the performance of my current spacecraft
, I can only survive at most 20 million kilometers away from it. If I get closer, I won’t be able to come back. So based on this calculation, I still have... one hundred and ninety-six years."
"Let's check the situation of this barrier first." Xiao Yu thought, controlling the huge fleet and advancing slowly.
After traveling to a distance of 2 billion kilometers from the central star, the Hebei led the large force to stop. A city-level spacecraft served as the flagship of the exploration fleet and led hundreds of small spacecraft to continue moving forward.
This kind of scenery is very strange. Xiao Yu knows the shape of this barrier. It is oval and wraps the entire galaxy inside. But because it is so huge, it cannot be noticed at smaller scales.
The curvature. In other words, if you look at it from a single location, it is flat.
It's like when you look up at the sky, the whole sky turns a faint red. Under this red blockage, no stars can be seen.
Within this huge sphere with a radius of 10 billion kilometers, only Xiao Yu's fleet and the huge star in the center were left. Other than that, there was nothing else.
This is an interstellar prison, and Xiao Yu has become the only prisoner in this prison.
The Langfang is moving forward carrying many precision instruments. It will conduct a survey of this barrier and obtain some technical parameters for Xiao Yu to conduct future research.
After a day's voyage, the Langfang arrived at its target. At this moment, the Langfang was less than 300 kilometers away from this barrier, and was following this barrier inward at a speed of 1.6 kilometers per second.
Zoom in. In this way, the Langfang remains relatively stationary with the barrier and can conduct research stably.
Several village-level spaceships slowly approached this barrier.
Xiao Yu first made a penetration attempt. One of the village-level spacecraft directly hit the light curtain. When the village-level spacecraft hit it, the Langfang kept a close eye on it. There were many
A precision optical instrument is taking pictures.
But something happened that surprised Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu saw that after contacting this barrier, the head of the village-level spacecraft disappeared directly. However, although the spacecraft disappeared, the communication between Xiao Yu and the village-level spacecraft was still maintained.
Xiao Yu immediately commanded the village-level spacecraft to send out a broadcast so that satellites nearby could locate it. Xiao Yu was surprised to find that the village-level spacecraft had unknowingly moved a distance from the central star.
Tens of billions of kilometers away. It reached a place only one billion kilometers away from the central star.
In this moment, this village-class spacecraft crossed a distance of nearly 9 billion kilometers.
"Does it mean that any material that comes into contact with this barrier will be transported to another location?" Xiao Yu thought, controlling another village-level spacecraft, and tried again.
The result is that this village-level spacecraft still disappeared without warning after contacting this barrier. Through the satellite positioning system, Xiao Yu discovered it in another place, 1.33 billion kilometers away from the central star.
it.
"Is the transmission random?" Xiao Yu speculated and continued the experiment.
The result is still the same. Any spacecraft that comes into contact with this barrier is randomly teleported to a random point between one billion and one billion one billion kilometers away from the central star.
"It seems that what Taihao said to me is true." Xiao Yu thought, "This barrier is indeed insurmountable."
After the spacecraft contact test, there is an inspection in the visible light band.
This barrier will emit a faint red light, and Xiao Yu tries to find some specific information about this barrier from these red lights.
But the spectrum analyzer showed that the red light was consistent with the light from the central star.
At extremely high energy levels, such as on the surface of a star, different elements will emit different light. Through spectral analysis, the elemental composition of a star can be determined.
For example, in the Earth era, through spectral analysis, humans can even analyze the elemental composition of distant stars billions of light years away.
Xiao Yu had already conducted spectral analysis on the central star and had mastered its various data early on. However, the light of this barrier was actually consistent with the central star, which really surprised Xiao Yu.
"Perhaps... the light emitted by this barrier is itself the reflected light of the central star?" Xiao Yu guessed and began to perform spectral analysis in the ultraviolet and infrared bands.
The results of the analysis are still the same as those of the central star.
It seems that this barrier is a huge mirror that reflects back all the light that hits it, whether it is visible light or invisible light.
But obviously, it can't be as simple as a mirror.
In this regard, Xiao Yu made his own guess.
"Perhaps, this is the wonderful thing about the four-dimensional fragment. It is not a mirror, but has some physical characteristics of a mirror. Its fourth dimension may be curved for the three-dimensional world.
At that time, it will enter from the three-dimensional world to the four-dimensional world, and then through the bend of the fourth dimension, it will return from the original path."
"My spaceship may be based on this principle, but the details are different. As a result, my spaceship was randomly teleported to the inner galaxy instead of returning the same way."
"It seems that Taihao did not lie. As expected, all the information cannot be transmitted. This star, and the 10 billion kilometers of space around it, have been separated."
"No, that's not right!" At this moment, Xiao Yu suddenly realized the contradiction.
"The light will be reflected back, does that mean that the heat of the star cannot be transferred out? This violates the most basic laws of physics."
The heat of this star cannot be transferred out, which means that if the temperature inside the barrier is three degrees and the temperature outside the barrier is two degrees, one is higher and the other is lower, then the laws of physics require that heat must be conducted from a high place to a low place.
place. However, since the temperature cannot be transmitted out due to the existence of the barrier, how do they achieve heat conduction?
This phenomenon is like a hot water kettle that can completely isolate heat loss and always maintain the temperature of the hot water in the kettle. The most basic scientific literacy tells Xiao Yu that this phenomenon cannot happen.
This is the theory of entropy increase. Within a system, as time goes by, entropy can only increase, not decrease, nor remain unchanged. No method can be used without producing other effects.
, blocking the increase in entropy.
Obviously, if heat conduction does not occur around the barrier, then the entropy increase theory is broken.
If this phenomenon really exists, the cornerstone of Xiao Yu's theory should be completely overturned.
"There is currently only one explanation that can take into account the contradiction between my theory and the current phenomenon." Xiao Yu thought silently, "The only possibility is that this star and the surrounding space have changed from the original three-dimensional world where I am.
, are separated. They belong to two different systems. Since they are not in the same system, the entropy will naturally not continue to increase."
This conclusion made Xiao Yu feel a little palpitated.
"This situation is a bit similar to the small world mentioned in some fantasy novels..." Xiao Yu came to a conclusion that made him dumbfounded.
"There is a great possibility that this is the case. My theory should be correct in the general direction. Otherwise, I would not have achieved so many results in a wrong theoretical system. But in front of me, the phenomenon that goes against my knowledge is...
It is indeed happening. My explanation is the only explanation that can take into account both, so it should also be correct."
Xiao Yu came to a conclusion.
"But there is another question. I wonder what the situation here will look like from the outside world."
"Since light and heat cannot be transmitted out, from the outside world, it should be that this star suddenly disappeared from the universe."
Obviously, a star will not disappear for no reason. If a star disappears for no reason, I don’t know how many civilizations will peep.
"Taihao said that this barrier will block any prying eyes and keep me absolutely safe. It seems that I should doubt this statement. After all, it is a star. Its disappearance cannot not cause the rest of the existence to be destroyed.
Attention. The Sweeper civilization is hundreds of light years away from me. Even if other civilizations are frightened by the existence of the Sweepers and dare not come over, what about the Sweepers? What if it comes to investigate? Taihao’s four-dimensional structure
, but they were all directly smashed into pieces by the neutron battle star. I don’t think this barrier can stop the sweeper civilization’s exploration.”
After thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt inexplicably worried.
"I don't know if this is Taihao's negligence, or if Taihao has other plans. Hey, even if Taihao is kind to me, the feeling of being manipulated is still a bit bad. But...I am thinking about these at this time.
The things are of no use, so I’d better develop my own technology honestly, do my best and obey fate. If I’m discovered by the sweepers, it will be unlucky for me and there’s nothing I can do about it.”
After figuring this out, Xiao Yu put down his psychological burden, withdrew his attention from this barrier, and began to study his own technology system. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and more updated.
