From black technology to super engineering - #833 - Chapter 830 There is no upper limit to human pursuits

Being away from home for almost three months made Ye Ming unable to feel truly pure even in the cold winter.

He hadn’t yet discussed with Eta the reason why the construction errors of the Tianhuan Project were strange. After a while, Mr. Huo Laien came to the door in person.

Today, the old man is over seventy years old, and his hair has become full of silver threads, but his energy is as good as ever, and there is no sign of age spots on his face. This means that human anti-aging projects have indeed achieved initial results.

“Professor, there is such a heavy snow.” Ye Ming invited Professor Huo Laien into the reception room downstairs and personally made him a cup of coffee.

“This little snow is nothing. I’ve seen bigger ones – have you been to the Northeast?”

“No.”

“I’ve been there. It’s snowing in the Northeast.” Mr. Huo was not polite. He took off his coat and put it on the back of an empty chair close to the heater. He held a cup of coffee and looked at Ye Ming with burning eyes: “This For several years, I have been thinking about whether we are going the wrong way.”

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment: “How do you say this?”

As the two most accomplished leaders in the Institute of Physics, Professor Ye Ming and Professor Huo Laien led many research groups and the work was very complex and involved quite a few fields. However, the two of them really collaborated in the field that lasted for more than ten years. There is only one, which is the complete coordinate to construct a multi-dimensional space.

Once this coordinate is fully formed, humans can easily “travel” between different dimensions.

The problem now is that although humans have mastered the method from the three-dimensional world to the four-dimensional world, there is no way to return from the four-dimensional world to the three-dimensional space.

For this reason, Ye Ming and Mr. Huo started building various tools and theories more than ten years ago in an attempt to improve the coordinate system conversion project of this multi-dimensional space. But until now, progress has been very slow.

“We have always tried to build theory first and then use theory to guide practice.”

Ye Ming nodded. This has been a common method in the physics community for the past hundred years.

“But our most powerful tool now is not our theoretical mind.” Mr. Huo pointed to his gray-haired head: “It is engineering power.”

After a pause, he pointed at Ye Ming again: “Okay, you have to be smarter, but you can’t use all your energy.”

Hearing this, Ye Ming coughed slightly and became embarrassed: “Old man, is there still a possibility? We are too anxious?”

Ye Ming is telling the truth. Although he has the help of the “system”, he has been with the system for more than 20 years. He has already mastered the system’s skills – he must admit that the system is indeed a powerful piece of knowledge. The library also has powerful logic, but again, the system is still a system after all.

In essence, the system improves human technology by enlightening him with various knowledge systems.

The most important point – this improvement has an upper limit.

And human imagination, or vision, has no upper limit!

For example, the theory of constructing complete coordinates in multi-dimensional space is beyond the capabilities of the system.

In the past, Ye Ming thought that it might be because his level was too low, which prevented him from getting more advanced tips, but now… his theory has reached level nine, his experience value has quickly reached level 10, and engineering has already reached level 10. When it reached level ten – when it reached level ten, because there was no special feedback, it was just given a large number of exchange points that Ye Ming no longer needed, so that Ye Ming didn’t take it seriously at all.

At such a high level, Ye Ming still could not get more help from the system about the complete coordinates of multi-dimensional space.

This can only be said that this theory exceeds the upper limit of the system.

Or the system has also set permissions and believes that humans cannot reach, or are not worthy of, reaching such heights.

Therefore, Ye Ming is not very anxious about constructing complete coordinates.

As long as human beings can continue to reproduce endlessly, they will one day understand the nature of multi-dimensional space and become the highest civilization.

“I must admit, I’m a little anxious, but listen to me.” Professor Huo Laien said solemnly: “Let’s change our approach and start with engineering.”

“How to get started?”

“Can we try to enter the two-dimensional space?” Professor Huo Laien stared at Ye Ming: “Enter from the three-dimensional space and exit from the two-dimensional space. After obtaining the data, summarize the experience and parameters, and then apply it to the four-dimensional space.” .”

Ye Ming was stunned. After a moment, his body instantly sat upright: “Enter two dimensions. Currently we are using two-dimensional technology. There is no way to take it out – even if it can be taken out, it is no longer possible.” It has returned to a three-dimensional material form, and the only things that can be transmitted across dimensions are information and energy.”

“So, what if we build an incredibly powerful force field to maintain our form?”

“You mean using the space membrane shield on materials that are to be put into two-dimensional space?”

“It doesn’t have to be a space membrane, as long as it is a strong force field, of course the gravitational field is best.” Professor Huo Laien said, glanced left and right, stood up, found a piece of Ye Xiaoxi’s drawing and put it on the table, and then he He fumbled in his pocket a few more times, took out a melon seed, and finally placed the melon seed on the paper.

“The melon seeds are the carriers, and the paper is the two-dimensional surface.”

Ye Ming stared at the melon seeds and paper, frowning slightly.

He understood what Professor Huo Laien meant.

Normally, once this melon seed comes into contact with a two-dimensional surface, it will enter a two-dimensional process, which is irreversible.

Now Mr. Huo’s idea is to prevent the melon seeds from becoming two-dimensional and keep their intact form entering the inside of the paper and then coming out.

Since this is a three-dimensional versus two-dimensional operation, humans can easily observe all phenomena and obtain all parameters from a “high-dimensional” perspective.

After thinking silently for a long time, Ye Ming nodded slowly.

“You can give it a try.”

“If we succeed, then we can at least obtain the coordinate parameters of the two- and three-dimensional space!” Mr. Huo Laien’s eyes were filled with light: “As long as the multi-dimensional space makes sense, it can be used to infer three, four, and five dimensions. Five or six dimensions…”

“Okay, then we will make a report and prepare to see where we can experiment.”

“It’s best to find a large two-dimensional surface.”

Ye Ming: “…the largest two-dimensional space constraint is still under construction, and there is a slight anomaly.”

Professor Huo Laien was startled: “What’s abnormal?”

Ye Ming then described the problems discovered by Peng Xiaofei to Mr. Huo in detail. In order to prevent Mr. Huo from thinking that this was making a fuss, he also called up the final data error report of all the projects that Aita was responsible for in the past, forming a Show the complete linear trend to the old man.

In comparison, the error discovered by Peng Xiaofei this time indeed appears to be much “imprecise”.

So Professor Huo Laien also discussed with Ye Ming, but the two of them hypothesized for a long time, but in the end they couldn’t come up with a convincing enough reason – after ruling out problems with Eta, the most likely possibility is that Jupiter’s gravity may quietly occur changed.

Fortunately, the impact is not big now, or almost no impact, so Ye Ming plans to ask the construction team to conduct continuous long-term observations of Jupiter’s gravity. At the same time, they will also focus on observing Jupiter’s activities to see if there are any changes in Jupiter’s interior. There have been some subtle changes.

Then… as soon as Mr. Huo Laien was sent away, Ye Ming heard Zhou Xiangnan’s exaggerated praise of Ye Xiaoxi from outside…

Yes, it seems that he can’t be clean today.

…

A week later, Ye Ming, who was extremely passionate about the Tianhuan project, went to Jupiter and witnessed the smooth completion of the first phase of the project.

When he saw the entire sky ring lighting up with blue test lights in sequence, Peng Xiaofei, the conductor standing next to Ye Ming, took a long breath and turned to look at Ye Ming: “Fortunately, fortunately, I did not disgrace my order.”

“Brother Xiaofei, thank you for your hard work.” Ye Ming chuckled and pinched Peng Xiaofei’s shoulder: “I’ll treat you to dinner when you return to Earth.”

“Yeah, sure—but who’s cooking?”

“You can’t count on me, can you?”

“No, I mean, Aita cooks or Eta cooks?” Peng Xiaofei raised his eyebrows at Ye Ming: “Their cooking skills are different.”

Ye Ming: “…Etta is busy, so I’ll let Aita do it.”

“Okay, that’s fine.” Peng Xiaofei laughed: “By the way, is everything okay here in Jupiter?”

“It doesn’t seem to be happening at the moment. After all, with such a big size, any fluctuations are normal.” Ye Ming turned to look outside the cabin – outside the window was the huge shadow of Jupiter, as if he would be struck by it if he took one more look. Just suck it in.

Peng Xiaofei breathed a sigh of relief: “Then I can rest assured. I can stay on the moon and conduct remote control for the next two and three phases of the project.”

Ye Ming glanced at Peng Xiaofei, smiled and shook his head.

Compared with memory, Peng Xiaofei, who is now 40 years old, seems to be a little taller.

Of course, this is not because Peng Xiaofei has grown in reverse, and will still grow taller when he reaches middle age, but because he has been in a low-gravity environment for a long time – whether it is the moon, the space dock, or the Tianhuan Project Headquarters where he is currently. , for higher efficiency and comfort, the gravity generated is only about 80% of the earth’s – causing his bones to be permanently lengthened.

Hmm…it’s like growing taller in disguise.

The consequence of this is that after Peng Xiaofei returns to Earth, he will feel uncomfortable…everywhere.

This can also be regarded as an “occupational disease” for space workers who have been in space for many years.

After walking out of the command center, Ye Ming met and chatted with a group of engineers and took photos. After going through a lot of procedures, it was not until after the celebration banquet that he had the opportunity to sit alone with Peng Xiaofei in the office to chat and catch up on old times.

However, judging from the issues Peng Xiaofei paid attention to, he had no intention of interacting with Ye Ming, but he especially wanted to get some gossip about the empire and the war from Ye Ming’s mouth.

Regarding this, Ye Ming also revealed some so-called inside information to Peng Xiaofei under the premise of complying with confidentiality regulations. For example, the empire is now in chaos, there are rebellions everywhere in its ruling area, and pirates are also flourishing. Coupled with the fact that humans have connected to two galaxies, the empire is in dire straits and may agree to all the conditions proposed by humans.

“What about the prisoners?”

“What prisoner?”

“Those Imperial prisoners… By the way, I haven’t really seen what the Imperial people look like.” Peng Xiaofei squinted slightly with curiosity on his face: “I heard that they look like cockroaches?”

Ye Ming was stunned, then laughed and said: “Who told you?”

“Every self-media says so, call them Cockroach Man… or Ant Man?”

Ye Ming’s head was full of black lines: “Nonsense, the facial features of the imperial people and ours are actually quite similar, but the proportions are different. There are indeed a pair of tentacles on the top of the head… but they are too different from cockroaches.”

“When can I bring it to see?”

“…” Ye Ming was speechless for a while. At this moment, his wrist buzzed. After raising his wrist and taking a look, he smiled and said, “I’ll show you now.”

“What are you looking at?”

“Look at the Imperials.”

After finishing speaking, Ye Ming looked up at the ceiling and asked Aita to connect the communication.

The light curtain lowered, and after a burst of noise flickering, Lianna’s figure appeared in the light curtain.

Nowadays, she has also changed into human clothes, and even the little suit looks tailor-made, it is particularly close to the body, showing off her slim figure.

Peng Xiaofei’s eyes immediately widened, and he silently said “fuck” opposite Ye Ming.

Ye Ming smiled slightly and waved his hand towards the light curtain, signaling Peng Xiaofei to stop making trouble, which was another greeting to Liana.

——After witnessing the one-sided war two months ago, Lianna temporarily gave up her idea of ​​becoming a teacher at the United College, and instead stayed with Hall in Base 31 on Ella to serve as the Empire’s Liaison with humanity.

Therefore, for the past two months, she has been responsible for conveying the dialogue and communication on both sides.

This sounds a little weird – an imperial “quasi-prophet”, a standard class of imperial rulers, who communicates with the enemy and the home planet in an absolutely neutral capacity.

But Liana really did it, and she did it very well and very competently.

“Hello, Teacher Anna.” Ye Ming greeted with a smile.

“Hello, Academician Ye, I would like to convey to you the final attitude of the Prophet Academy.” In the light screen, Liana paused, and then added: “I have already conveyed it to Director Xia of the Foreign Affairs Office, but in view of the fact that the Chief Prophet I wanted to convey it to you personally, and that’s why I contacted you.”

Ye Ming nodded slightly: “You say.”

“The Seer Academy believes that if the empire chooses peace…”

Ye Ming frowned slightly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “If I understand correctly, it means putting down your weapons and accepting changes, right?”

“In human terms, it means conditional surrender.” Lianna said expressionlessly.

Ye Ming nodded with a smile and motioned for Liana to continue.

“The empire needs to share all scientific theories and technologies of mankind – this is a necessary prerequisite for you to contact the promised land.”

After finishing speaking, Liana folded her hands in front of her and waited for Ye Ming quietly.

Ye Ming’s expression remained unchanged and he nodded slightly again.

This means that he knows.
