Chapter 499: Old Things
Lao Song on the holographic image was slightly surprised, he was obviously very strange that Wang Qinian would contact him at this time.
"You discuss it with Xiao Gao, and try your best to come up with a new high-level personnel adjustment plan."
Wang Qinian, who had already thought about the causes and consequences, spoke very quickly: "Here in the Academy of Sciences, I will arrange for people to take over the relevant affairs, and the operation process and procedures of the underground factory will also be in charge of the Central Light Brain." Zhao Zhikai and Yuan Zhicheng will not make any moves on their side, and the rest of the questions are not enough to mention, I can only give you a month's buffer time at most. β
For this sudden change, Lao Song was very shocked: "Where are you going?" β
"Here, shooter 6867550854"
Wang Qinian quickly called up the triangular elevation, pointed to the coordinates that had teleported Su Hao to the past, and said seriously: "I have a hunch that Su Hao needs my help very much now. Moreover, the relationship between that world and the earth is very delicate, and there must be a connection between them? β
"Premonition?"
Lao Song felt that this word completely subverted his previous impression of the president of the academy: "Didn't you always only believe in numbers and evidence, and regarded things like premonitions as nonsense?" It's unbelievable that even you are saying such things now. β
"Science does need to pay attention to numbers, and hunches are an indispensable part of it."
Wang Qinian's face was stern, which reminded people of the god stick who pretended to be a gesture: "There is no room for development without imagination, and the two are not contradictory." β
Lao Song wanted to say, "That's an association, not a hunch." He finally swallowed the words that had already reached his lips, and asked incomprehensibly, "I have never heard you talk about wanting to leave before, and the reason you just said is not sufficient." Sue me for what exactly. β
Wang Qinian thought for a few seconds and typed a string of commands on the keyboard. As he pressed the decision button heavily, a text clip with the word "top secret" was also transmitted through the guΓ² network into Lao Song's optical brain.
"There are some things that I should let you know."
There is a lot of content included in the text jiΓ n folder, and it is also very messy. There are several records of conversations between Su Hao and Wang Qinian; There are plans and processes for the study of viruses that began long before biological warfare; There are various response plans of the core group to the virus outbreak; There is also information about the origin of Su Hao, as well as all the scientific and technological information about the inside of the underwater pyramid in the Atlantic Ocean.
These things are as many as millions of words, and Lao Song can't read them in a short time. Although he only glanced at the title briefly, it was enough to shock him, and his expression gradually became solemn.
He is just a "worker bee" who was assimilated by Su Hao by chance after the outbreak of the virus. It was also because of opportunity that he became the leader of the "swarm". Many of the contents in the text are unfamiliar to Lao Song, and although many of the problems involved have been solved, as a first-time contact, Lao Song still feels shocked.
When he saw that Su Hao was from another time and space, Lao Song couldn't help it anymore. The muscles on both sides of his cheeks kept trembling, the blood on his lips almost dissipated, and his words completely lost their original sound, extremely hoarse: "This, how is this possible?" How is this possible? β
Wang Qinian had long expected such a scene. He made himself a cup of tea, and while sipping it, he said lightly: "What is impossible? I've seen the drawings of the time teleporter with my own eyes, and I don't know if you've ever read Einstein's "Theory of Relativity", according to his theory, the world is divided into different time periods, and this kind of thing will become a reality. Of course, the premise is that the scientific and technological strength has been upgraded to the corresponding Cheng dΓΉ. β
"If we can go back to the present, why can't we go a little further, go straight back to 50 years before the outbreak of the virus, or more, and stop the war directly at the source?"
"The temporal dimension is a very delicate existence. The number must be accurate to the point where it is measured in microseconds. There is no possibility of replication of this kind of thing, and there is no second operation. All in all, since Su Hao has come to this time, it is impossible for him to return to the original time and space, and it is impossible for him to continue to move forward in this time and space. Otherwise, he will never meet us, and may even get lost in the turbulence of time and space, not knowing at what time period he fell. β
"That's not right!"
Lao Song's feelings instantly became excited: "You said that science and technology can be controlled. Time machines are also technological products. Since the machinery used by Su Hao could not control the accuracy, we increased our research efforts on it. Human, financial, and material resources are not a problem. It is entirely possible for us to solve this problem and go straight back to the same dimension as in the past, and destroy the one qiΔ from the source. In this way, Xinyan and Su Hao will not leave the earth, and we will not face so much trouble. β
Wang Qinian held the teacup, felt the warmth transmitted through the wall of the cup to the palm of his hand, and said expressionlessly: "This is impossible." β
"Why?"
"Because the time machine only exists before the time period when I talked to Su Hao."
Wang Qinian clicked on the Kaiwen jiΓ n folder, directly selected the part where he was suspicious of Su Hao, and put out the part of the time machine drawings in the office: "Before this, what you just said was valid. But now, the drawings have been destroyed. Strictly speaking, it was the right thing to do. Time machine drawings should not be preserved. That only gives people the hope of escaping from reality, rather than thinking about how to fight and solve difficulties. No one can foresee the future, and no one is wrong in this matter. β
"Since there are drawings, there should be relevant technical numbers."
Lao Song seemed to have sensed something, and his voice became a little low: "Why don't you continue the relevant research?" β
Wang Qinian's expression has not changed: "You should have guessed the crux of the problem." Yes, I don't have any technical information about the time machine, nor do I have any numbers. β
"How is this possible?"
Wang Qinian didn't argue with Lao Song, and said calmly: "The drawings of the time shuttle machine are technical information obtained after the core group came into contact with the Atlanteans long before the outbreak of the virus. At that time, I repeatedly confirmed that there was only one set of drawings, and no one except me had received the same information. To be honest, I was shocked even when I saw it. Because there were too many materials lacking at that time, it was never possible to make a physical object. If it weren't for Su Hao's appearance, which made me understand the negative meaning of this drawing, I am afraid that I would never have been able to destroy it. β
"That's not what I mean."
Lao Song's statement was very eager: "We have mastered the submarine pyramid, and there must be the same technical number in the central information memory." But why are you ......?"
"Why don't you list it separately to continue researching?"
Wang Qinian had already expected Lao Song's reaction. He put down the teacup in his hand heavily, and his eyes flashed with doubts that no one could see: "This is also what I feel strange." I searched every corner of the pyramid and didn't find any technical information about the time shuttle. β
"What?"
Lao Song's eyes suddenly widened, and his face was full of disbelief: "How is this possible?" β
"It's true. There is no need to deceive or conceal between me and you. β
Wang Qinian nodded heavily: "What that pyramid brought me was mystery and curiosity. In order to thoroughly analyze each of these links, I even made a replica of one in the underground factory of the Academy of Sciences. I collected as many as 20 million samples of the material from inside and outside the pyramid, from the structure to the material, with 100 percent accuracy. I copied six copies of the information in the central memory, and there was no loss or damage in the whole process. There couldn't be anyone better than I did, and no one knew anything in that tower better than I did. However, it was so strange that I had found no information about the time travel machine, nor any trace of the existence of this technology. The Atlanteans recorded the results and correlations of their previous realizations on Earth, and also preserved a huge amount of advanced technology, except for the absence of a time machine. β
After a pause, Wang Qinian continued: "I have checked the relevant files of the materials donated by the Atlanteans to the core group, and there is no record of the time machine in them at all. β
Lao Song's face changed slightly, and he couldn't help blurting out: "No record? What about the other projects? I'm referring to other gifts. β
"It's all there, and the scientific and technical information of each gift is well annotated. Only there is no time machine. β
Wang Qinian replied unusually calmly: "That drawing seems to appear out of thin air, and it is also unique. Maybe it's to hide people's eyes, or maybe it's for some ulterior purpose, in short, the matter has come to this point, only Su Hao and I know that it has been stored, but we can't come up with any evidence related to it. β
Lao Song stopped talking, he crossed his arms and frowned.
There is no doubt that time travel technology must belong to the extremely advanced category of technology. But as far as theory is concerned, humans have been studying it for a long time. To put it simply, it's just a contrast between time and speed. When speed reaches the extreme, it naturally transcends time.
Traveling through time and space has been the yearning of human beings for a long time, but it is another situation to really do it. Since the industrial age, human technology has not been able to reach this level, from bicycles to automobiles, from airplanes to rockets, the speed of various vehicles has become faster and faster, and the time between the two places has been greatly reduced. But be warned: shortening is not a crossing after all.
What is the baseline flow velocity of time? This is the key to the crucial use of time-travel technology.
The flight speed of "Explorer 2" has surpassed that of light, and the latest "Explorer 3" has improved even more on this basis. Despite this, there is still no situation of going against time, even the ultra-high power engine developed by the Academy of Sciences can only make the load body travel to and from different areas in a very short time. Due to the short time interval required and the fact that it had to be measured in microseconds, the reciprocating motion effect was completely beyond the speed at which the human eye could receive information from the outside world, resulting in a "teleportation" that can only be seen in legends.
"It's just a movement in time, not a time trip backwards."
Wang Qinian constantly explained the confusion of Lao Song: "The two concepts are completely different. From the 6867550854 of sending Exploration One to the shooters, all the work we have done since and now has been a journey of time. The Explorer 3 is currently the most powerful spacecraft, and it is not so much a "teleportation" as a short distance between the sites. If the switch is carried out in the universe, the effect is certainly not so obvious. In any case, it is far from being able to reverse the time. β
"Su Hao's time shuttle is completely different. It is a super-high-tech product that has truly crossed the barrier of time and can return to the past from the future and work backwards. I really regret ruining the drawings at that time, but if I could have stayed and researched more thoroughly, I would have been able to find the key to breaking the predicament...... Unfortunately, in this world, there is never a "if". β
Lao Song didn't say anything. He clasped his hands tightly and crossed them in front of his chest, his brow furrowed, and his expression was more stern than ever. It takes time to digest Wang Qinian's words, and for the time machine, Lao Song's concept is mostly derived from science fiction movies. No one has ever experienced real time travel, and even the best films shot after the end of the biological war are still a complex and gorgeous combination of light and shadow for this process. According to the director, it is the color when the energy is used to the extreme, breaking through one qiΔ at a speed. It's unreal to the naked eye, but it's beautiful.
"In other words, that time shuttle blueprint probably doesn't belong to the Atlanteans?"
Lao Song's voice was steady. Just listening to the voice, you can't imagine that his heart is rolling like a stormy wave. He looked at Wang Qinian: "You have already determined this?" Or is it speculation? β
"I have no proof."
Wang Qinian spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders: "The final conclusion needs evidence. I only know that there was indeed such a drawing, and Su Hao did make a time shuttle to come to this world with reference to the drawings. In other words, there is no doubt about the authenticity of the drawings, and the maturity of such technologies has also been confirmed from Su Hao. In this case, there should be a lot of technical information related to it, or similar to it. For example, the alloy formula required to make the machine, the energy conversion furnace, and the relative theory between the obstacle gas flow and the distance, etc...... I haven't found any of these things in the underwater pyramids, not even a single note on them. The drawings seemed to come out of nowhere. Hehe! It's illogical and really absurd. β
Lao Song ignored Wang Qinian's self-deprecation, and was still thoughtful: "You mean, the time shuttle technology does not belong to the Atlanteans?" β
"It's very likely."
Wang Qinian's face hovered between half yin and half yang, and his expression was also full of weirdness and helplessness: "Since I discovered this problem, I have often dreamed. I dreamed that I traveled back in time and space to the ancient Warring States period and sent a design drawing of the "54" pistol to King Yingzheng of Qin. Ying Zheng built a pistol according to the drawings, and after experiencing the power of this weapon for himself, he blew me up in the head with a single shot, and then burned the drawings for his own safety. β
Lao Song smiled "poof" and asked, "Then did you push one of King Qin's concubines to a strong force?" It's not your style to be killed for nothing. β
"I also dreamed of returning to Germany during the Second World War, and in order to avoid the outbreak of war, I gave Hitler the blueprints of the latest immigration spaceship. However, instead of building the ship, that bastard simply destroyed the blueprints, had Himmler cut off my head, and went on to lead the SS to conquer the world. In the words of the mustache at the time: the Aryans will not succumb to the status quo, we must strive for every bit of living space under the sun. The earth is too small, and the resources are simply not enough for the development of the entire human race. The gods do not specify to which people or countries they belong to, as long as they get it, it is ours. β
Lao Song slowly put away the smile on his face and became serious and dignified.
Wang Qinian's last sentence caused him to think.
"I have a hunch."
Wang Qinian said: "The triangular elevation in the pyramid probably has another meaning. I don't know, why did the Atlanteans make it in this shape? But this may be a revelation that the triangular structure is a broad base with a slight tip, and the higher it goes, the smaller it gets. Strengthen and evolve man...... Hehe! Further up, who knows what hellish hierarchy there will be? β
The wrinkles on Lao Song's forehead deepened: "Do you really plan to go over?" β
"The portal of the underwater pyramid is the only way that seems to be feasible at the moment. Technological breakthroughs are not as simple as lip service. Many of the technologies of the pyramid, that is, the universal battleship, have been put into practical use, and the high-power engine of the "Explorer III" is a replica of that battleship. With this as a propulsion, the spacecraft is indeed far faster than the original launch of Explorer 1. The technical research on the underwater pyramid has come to an end, and we are more like entering a science fiction world than we were at that time before the outbreak of the virus. What is now revealed is only the tip of the iceberg, and many Atlantis technologies have not yet been civilianized on a large scale. I never doubted that Explorer III would be able to catch up with Spacecraft One, but it will be a long time before it actually reaches the coordinates of Shooter 6867550854. I can't wait that long, Su Hao may be in trouble over there. β
Lao Song comforted: "The situation may not be as bad as you think. They may have ......"
"Nope! That's not the point of the problem. β
Wang Qinian said in a heavy tone: "You still don't understand what I mean. That's not what I'm worried about. Why are there so many pyramids on Earth? And think of the animals that we have been domesticating and free-range since time immemorial. Yes, it was the Atlanteans who released the virus, but why did they take those evolutionary people? Why? Is it just a so-called "warrior"? Or are they no longer adapted to the planet? "It's just the tip of the iceberg, and a lot of Atlantis technology hasn't been mass-populated yet. I never doubted that Explorer III would be able to catch up with Spacecraft One, but it will be a long time before it actually reaches the coordinates of Shooter 6867550854. I can't wait that long, Su Hao may be in trouble over there. β
Lao Song comforted: "The situation may not be as bad as you think. They may have ......"
"Nope! That's not the point of the problem. β
Wang Qinian said in a heavy tone: "You still don't understand what I mean. That's not what I'm worried about. Why are there so many pyramids on Earth? And think of the animals that we have been domesticating and free-range since time immemorial. Yes, it was the Atlanteans who released the virus, but why did they take those evolutionary people? Why?
