"After the virtual simulation, we found that the real world collision experiment is much more difficult than you and I imagined. Julius said to Adam with a haggard face.

Five years have passed in a hurry, there is no more news in the mage world, almost all the free mages are secretly combining, exchanging, and striving to be the first batch of mages to leave their homeland and settle in the colony.

A series of grass-roots and unshakable fundamental reforms of the Holy Tower have been successfully implemented, and the work of the Ministry of Supervision and the training of Supervision Mages are also in full swing, in order to make the first batch of qualified Supervision Mages take up their respective tasks before the actual implementation of the colony, so that the new identity can be familiarized, and then work smoothly when the First Alien Tower is actually established.

Because it is not a job that requires the display of personal force, Adam only left a part of the clone on the academy continent to act as a first-level data processor, while the ontology came to the personal chip research institute to follow up the simulated world collision experiment.

Julius and his team have not left the institute once in recent years, devoting every second of their time to preparation and simulation, after the initial difficulty of setting up a server and marking each microscopic particle in groups, the simulation experiment went relatively smoothly, but now, more and more difficult problems are constantly exposed, which is physically and mentally exhausting.

"It's very difficult to accelerate a plane close to the defined speed of light, and the amount of energy required to do so is terrifying. ”

This is indeed a very difficult problem, the closer a single particle or particle beam is to the speed of light, the greater the mass of the particle, and the corresponding energy required to continue accelerating and supporting the particle at high speed will also be larger, which has been verified in the particle accelerator of the Atomic Energy Research Institute before, but at that time, that little energy consumption was nothing to the mage.

However, when the units to collide change from particles that are unobservable to the naked eye and most magical visions to planes with extremely large volumes of mass, the amount of energy expended will increase exponentially, and so far, there is no limit to the growth.

"Energy issues aside, the orbits needed to accelerate the two worlds are too long and difficult to build. You know, particle accelerators use cyclotron acceleration and linear acceleration, and we used to accelerate a proton or electron to a given speed, and the orbit required was close to 50 kilometers, which was converted in equal proportions... In the case of the catastrophic zone, it is necessary to lay tracks at least throughout the entire territory of the catastrophic zone. ”

Julius didn't name the number, and if he had written it in full, it would probably cover an entire sheet of paper.

"Also, the collision of a single particle bursts out of instantaneous energy that surpasses the full force of the new extradimensional, and the energy generated when the two planes collide head-on at a speed close to the speed of light... Can't calculate. Julius grabbed a large pile of hair and spread his hands, "In order to accurately calculate this value, even the simulation experiment engine crashed three times. I can only estimate now that once a head-on collision occurs unprotected, the energy generated in an instant can probably completely destroy the cataclysmic zone and wipe it out. ”

Adam whispered, "Doomed?"

Julius said: "I've seen the video data you brought back, the primordial evolution of the catastrophe of destruction, to be honest, that thing is too vague, only has reference value and no research value, but now, after I see the plane collision scene in the simulation, I have reason to believe that the catastrophe may be the catastrophe caused by the abnormal leap growth of the basic parameters of the void at the end of the epoch, and the void is shrinking inward, and the speed of this contraction must exceed the speed of light. ”

As Adam's status in the mage system grew, he had access to more core data, and he knew that the current mage world was capable of supporting such an experiment, but the results of the experiment were likely to consume tens of thousands of years of accumulation, and this consumption was too terrifying.

"Of course we can sustain such an experiment, but even if the experiment goes ahead and the collision succeeds, the difficulty of trying to observe it is just as desperate," Julius said. I don't know if true spirit mages can, but even if they can survive that kind of impact, it will be difficult for them to complete data observation and collection. And if you don't rely on the True Spirit Mage, the magic guide items made from the current materials in the Mage World cannot be intact inside and outside the range. ”

In fact, both Adam and Julius knew that the above possible consequences were the result of the mage's habitual use of 'prepare for the worst' thinking, and it may not be so terrifying when it really happens, and the strongest evidence is that when two particle beams collide, they will also produce huge energy, but they only occur in a very small range, and the decay rate is unimaginably fast, and so on, the collision of the two planes will not necessarily have catastrophic consequences, and even if it does, it is likely to be only a moment.

But when there is no perfect preparation, no one dares to bet that once the experiment is really carried out, the resources consumed are astronomical, and the people who need to participate are all the most genius mages in the mage world, and no one can afford to bear this kind of loss.

Julius smiled bitterly, "You know what? Such predictions make some members suspect that the path of knowledge has come to an end, that the Aether Void no longer allows us to discover new and greater knowledge, that it is conscious, that it prevents us from getting closer to the truth, but limits us to the course it prescribes. There are also a very small number of people who even believe that the path of the mage's pursuit of knowledge may be a fork in the road, and devouring energy is the right way. ”

"Give the former a long vacation, and the latter, send to the Third Holy Tower. Adam said calmly, his heart did not waver in the slightest, the path of pursuing knowledge has never been, and can never be a smooth road, anyone can be intercepted and swallowed by the abyss that rises abruptly in front of him or falls suddenly, only those who are determined can always overcome obstacles and move forward.

This is the reason why physical and mental qualifications are only useful for mages in the apprenticeship stage, and why there are only a few dozen true spirits among the tens of billions of mages in the mage world.

The road gets harder and harder, and each time you destroy an obstacle, it takes a lot of wisdom and perseverance.

Julius sighed: "I've already done this, but I have to think of a way. ”
