Volume 8 Chapter 643 Faster-than-light Strike and Absolute Zero
"Miracles! Prime Minister, that's a miracle! "Regulus's adjutant Evans, a handsome and tall young man, barged in with a panicked face.
"What did you say?" Regulus said in a coping tone, then looked up tiredly and looked at Evans with a hint of confusion.
"Prime Minister, in Area C, you must go and see, several scientific authorities at the forefront of physics have rushed over."
"Okay, I'll get over when I'm done with what I'm doing." Xuanyuan Qi sighed and said, still not taking the "miracle" that Evans said to heart.
"First ...... Prime Minister, that, Archimedes-sama also rushed over. ”
"What? You're talking about the Dark Spirit's ambassador to the solar system, Professor Archimedes? ”
"That's right, he happened to be in the vicinity of Uranus recently, and as soon as he heard about it, he rushed over."
"How long ago?"
"It was about 20 minutes ago."
"Okay, get over right away." After speaking, Xuanyuan Qi immediately stood up.
Ten minutes later, Xuanyuan Qi and Evans took a fast airship to the sky over Area C, Xuanyuan Qi looked at the crater on the ground that appeared out of thin air with some confusion, he looked at Evans with a little consternation, and said, "Is it the wrong place?" Aren't we going to Zone C? ”
"That's right, this is Area C." Evans Road.
"What do you say? Zone C? The whole C Zone is gone? Xuanyuan Qi looked shocked, and at this moment, his mind finally pulled back from the upcoming battle of encirclement and suppression of the Japanese island.
"Yes...... Yes, Lord Archimedes is already below, let's not go straight to the middle of the crater. That. Everybody's there. Evans pointed to a spot diagonally below. There were several small black dots moving.
Xuanyuan Qi quickly commanded the ship to descend, and on the ground, Archimedes and several physicists were talking urgently, and an energy analysis instrument nearly five meters high was erected next to them.
"Hello, Prime Minister." Archimedes stepped forward to speak, and the rest of the physicists followed him with a sad face, leaving Regulus confused.
"The entire Area C has been razed to the ground by an unknown force." Archimedes said, presenting the astonishing facts in a flat tone.
Xuanyuan Qi felt a little headache. He turned to Evans to confirm, who nodded.
"What about the more than 20 million people in Area C?"
"They should all be dead." Archimedes tract.
"What do you say?! How? Why is there no strike alert? Without any warning of an attack, this is impossible. ”
"It's possible, if the other party's technology or strength is beyond our entire human community," Archimedes pondered for a moment before continuing, "and you must first accept this fact. ”
"Did the Z organization send anyone over?" As soon as Xuanyuan Qi said this, his whole body trembled, he couldn't imagine that he had become so cowardly now, when he encountered something beyond the scope of his imagination. The first reaction turned out to be to seek Z Organization as a support.
"Not yet." Archimedes shook his head.
"This ...... How exactly is this attacked? Didn't our planetary monitoring system detect the strike? ”
"It's a pity that this blow is undetectable." Archimedes tract.
"Why?"
"Because it's a faster-than-light strike!" Archimedes finally got the point.
"Faster-than-light strikes? Did we hear it wrong? ”
"Nope. This attack is completely beyond our level of technology, and since it is so appalling, let's educate you about it first. A physicist behind Archimedes said.
Xuanyuan Qi nodded, and next, a circular commentary interface appeared in front of him:
A faster-than-light strike is a strike that occurs when the speed of an energy or non-energy attack exceeds the speed of light. When the human eye observes a certain phenomenon, it must use photons as a medium, that is, objects that can be illuminated by light, and form a visual image on the fundus membrane through reflection before it can be observed.
However, when a faster-than-light strike appears, the attack itself has exceeded the speed of light, so that even light cannot be used as a medium to observe the strike, so at this time, the attack cannot be observed, and the target of the attack seems to us as if it has suddenly disappeared.
This phenomenon seems to go against the common sense of physics, but in fact it is because the current technology of mankind has not yet reached the level of interpreting that phenomenon, just as before the advent of quantum science and string theory, special relativity was regarded as the truth, but later it was completely overturned by string theory.
With the development of technology, what was previously considered truth will seem absurd, for science, the truth is always changing, only death is immortal, and the end of everything in the world is ultimately towards death, nothing is immune, not even time.
"Hahaha, that's ridiculous, so you scientific giants are gathered here just to tell me that the huge C area and its more than 20 million people suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and you can't find any way to analyze it?"
"Alas," Archimedes sighed, "the man who caused all this has left behind not only the unsolved mystery of faster-than-light, but also there! ”
With that, Archimedes pointed to the center of the arc-shaped "crater", where Evans had just said not to descend.
Xuanyuan Qi squinted his eyes and found that in that position, there was a very faint blue light.
"What's that?"
"Absolute zero space." Archimedes tract.
"Absolute zero? What's so strange about that? Xuanyuan Qi said, now human beings have been able to create temperatures infinitely close to absolute zero, and the word absolute zero is very ordinary, even ordinary, even people who are not very educated know what it represents.
"But do you know the science of absolute zero?" A physicist asked questioningly.
Xuanyuan Qi was silent for a moment and said, "Please speak." ”
The physicist nodded and said, "According to the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution, the greater the kinetic energy of the particle, the higher the temperature of the matter. Theoretically, if the kinetic energy of the particle is as low as the lowest point of quantum mechanics, the matter reaches absolute zero and cannot be lower. However, absolute zero is the lowest temperature that cannot be reached, and the temperature of nature can only be approximated infinitely. If it arrives, then everything will reach the lowest form of motion. Because any space must contain energy and heat, and they are constantly converting into each other without disappearing. So absolute zero does not exist unless the space is free of any energy heat from the beginning. ”
"I know that." Regulus said, "It's infinitely close to absolute zero, and now it's possible to create ultra-low temperatures that are only a few hundredths of a degree away from absolute zero, so absolute zero is not a big deal." ”
For a while, everyone was silent, and after a while, Archimedes said: "It's a pity, Mr. Prime Minister, this is absolute zero in the true sense, we just used this energy analysis instrument to launch a series of laser beams into that piece of blue light, and finally the laser beam disappeared into the blue light, and nothing came out." Any particle, once it enters that blue light, the motion of the particle itself disappears completely, so ...... It was a space of absolute zero, and the outside world could not influence it in any way. ”
"How is that possible? You mean there is no temperature exchange? How is it possible in absolute zero space? ”
Xuanyuan Qi was crazy, even if it was a weapon made of absolute zero, when attacking, it would rise due to the constant temperature exchange with the outside world, resulting in a temperature that was really close to absolute zero could only exist for a short time gap, and the energy required to maintain an absolute zero space was unimaginably large.
Moreover, this energy must exist in a form that cannot be explained by human science and technology at present.
My God, two phenomena in a row that cannot be explained by science, are they really miracles, as Evans said? Thinking of this, Xuanyuan Qi looked at the blue light with some horror, and then looked at Archimedes as if asking for help.
"Prime Minister, unfortunately, that is not a miracle, but a precursor to destruction, the Zeus race." Archimedes uttered four words that made people shudder, "Judging from the records of the battle between the Dark Spirits and the Zeus race 1,000 years ago, they were already capable of launching both attacks at that time. ”
"Wouldn't it? The Zeus race appears here? If there was a mirror at this time, Xuanyuan Qi would definitely find that his face was already ugly, like that of a patient with advanced liver cancer.
"I don......'t know," Archimedes sighed, "but these two attacks ...... All of them are far beyond our technological level. ”
Xuanyuan Qi fell into deep thought, and in just a few minutes, his expression kept changing, sometimes sad, sometimes frightened, sometimes desperate, sometimes crazy, and finally, his face returned to normal, and said, "You can put this absolute zero space first...... Get rid of it? I always feel that my eyelids will jump when I look at it, and I am very upset. ”
"It's an isolated space, and any particle that enters it will become a particle that will not become inactive, for example, if you take the hardest weapon and put it in it, the weapon will disintegrate and become isolated atoms."
"What about attacking with weapons? Nuclear weapons or something? ”
"No, attacking with weapons will cause an unpredictable spread of absolute zero space, and you don't want to lose another Zone B or A, do you?"
"There's so much energy in a small space?"
"It's a space that's bound by high-powered energy, and once it spreads out, God knows how big it can become. If it spreads to a planet as large as it is, even if the diffused space can only exist for 0.1 seconds, it will be enough to extinguish the entire planet. (To be continued......)
