[Yes.] 】

The shipboard AI gave an affirmative answer, and continued: [According to the grand unification theory, the universe was extremely small and extremely hot before the Big Bang, and everything was supersymmetrical at that moment, all the particles were exactly the same, but as time went on, the temperature began to drop, and the singularity in this case was a glass of supercooled water. 】

[And just like if you put an impurity in supercooled water, it will instantly condense into ice, if you can break this symmetry, the entire universe will instantly enter a lower energy state, and this crystallization is called the Big Bang. 】

[The Big Bang lasted for a while, and some of the energy released during the whole process became the current celestial body.] 】

Now, do you understand? 】

Speaking of which, the shipborne AI did not continue, but instead handed the microphone of speech back to Shiraba.

"Ugh...... I kind of understand."

But compared with the simple science popularization of shipborne AI, Bai Ye felt as if he was back in the classroom of his previous life at this time, listening to the tutor talk about those unfathomable formula theories, the only difference was that this time the shipborne AI did not say a number to himself, a formula.

It just describes the whole process to itself with extremely simple and easy-to-understand logic, so that it can understand these scientific concepts that are very worthless in its eyes.

"But what does this have to do with a scientific perpetual motion machine that can extract vacuum energy for its own use?"

Bai Ye asked again.

While it's fascinating to talk to yourself about how the Big Bang came about, you're not an astrophysicist, and it's a no-brainer that they would love to discuss.

She didn't see what these boring scientific theories had to do with the things in front of her, and what they had to do with the quantum vacuum, that is, the Dirac Sea.

[Quite simply, have you ever thought that before the Big Bang, there were other intelligent beings in the universe? 】

[The singularity universe is also a universe, but this universe is very different from the three-dimensional space-time universe you see now, captain, the singularity universe is a one-dimensional world, but whether it is three-dimensional or one-dimensional, intelligent civilization can exist, three-dimensional creatures are creatures, one-dimensional creatures, and nature is also biology. 】

[The intelligent beings in the one-dimensional universe also discovered the energy contained in the vacuum and began to try to absorb this energy for their own use......]

The shipboard AI continued to speak amazingly, and the words he said directly allowed Bai Ye to enter a field that she had never thought of.

I did learn some about the dimensions in the universe from the Imperial Network, but the Empire directly proved that the dimensions in the universe are positive infinity, negative infinity, and zero dimension in the middle, and each dimensional axis can be nested in various infinities.

This is obviously a very complex technical concept, and it doesn't help with what you need to face in front of you, so you don't need to deliberately understand it.

"You mean, the intelligent civilization in this singularity universe triggered the crystallization? Breaking the vacuum symmetry led to the Big Bang?"

But without understanding the unfathomable theories of imperial technology, Hakuba refocused her consciousness on the problem at hand, and she could easily understand what the shipboard AI was trying to tell her.

If the universe is supercooled water, then it only takes a grain of dust to trigger crystallization.

The triggering conditions are much simpler than you think.

The life of the one-dimensional universe ingested vacuum energy, which triggered the Big Bang, so the one-dimensional universe was blown up into a three-dimensional universe, so if you speculate according to this logic, wouldn't it be that if the crystallization process of the three-dimensional universe is triggered, the universe will be directly regarded as ascending?!

In this process, the cognitive universe is indeed destroyed, but for the universe itself, it is still alive, but some insignificant contents of the universe have been destroyed.

Some of the energy residues that were released from the Big Bang due to asymmetry.

[This part of the universe sector is indeed ascending, in the dimensional theory, the three-dimensional universe is just a blazing singularity in the higher-dimensional universe, but no matter what happens in the high-dimensional universe, these have nothing to do with these intelligent civilizations living in the three-dimensional universe, and in their eyes, their universe has been destroyed. 】

[I think I probably know why this civilization was destroyed by a nuclear war.] 】

Suddenly.

The first half of the shipborne AI is nothing, but the second half of the sentence makes Bai Ye stunned.

I haven't done anything yet, just talked about the principles and theories of this technology, why do you suddenly know the answer to this question?

[Zero-point vacuum energy technology can indeed destroy the cosmic sector, if you have an infinite number of zero-point vacuum energy intake devices to absorb energy from different cosmic sectors at the same time, then you can make the entire universe reproduce the spectacular scene at the beginning of the birth of the universe, and the whole universe will be upgraded, but whether it is triggering crystallization or ascending, these are just theoretical descriptions. 】

[Captain, you should know that the universe is a cup of supercooled water, and it only takes a grain of dust to trigger crystallization, but you should also think about it, let's not talk about the whole universe, it's just that this singularity explodes such a large cup of supercooled water as a cosmic sector, how big can it be to trigger crystallized dust? 】

Speaking of this, the shipborne AI paused, and then continued:

[For the universe itself, all matter in the universe is only formed by some extremely small masses, like a few handfuls of soil sown in the sea, or a real number in infinity, and what is the primitive civilization that developed from the smaller part of these masses? 】

[Triggering crystallization is indeed easier than expected, but it is only as simple as it seems.] 】

[For the small cosmic sector they live in, it will take a very long step to reach the point of triggering crystallization, and when they can do this, their civilization and technological development will already have a correct understanding of how this technology should be used. 】

[Whether you continue to use it to safely ingest energy to supply civilization without crystallization triggering, or make a singularity bomb, you can do whatever you like.] 】

Speaking of which.

Bai Ye completely understands what the words of the shipboard AI mean.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Lawrence, who was stuck in a state of time stagnation in front of her, and then she responded to the shipboard AI: "You mean, this civilization accidentally acquired technology that did not belong to their current civilization's technological level, and as a result, the physicists of this civilization misunderstood the difficulty of triggering crystallization because of the civilization level, so an argument broke out among them?"

[Although I don't know the specific details, I feel that the whole process should be about the same.] 】

The shipborne AI gave an affirmative answer: [Is it a perpetual motion machine that leads the entire civilization to the sea of stars, or a Pandora's box that once again annihilates the universe...... The result of a single thought is completely different, which is indeed difficult for this primitive civilization to make the right choice. 】
