Chapter 10 Is It the Grave or the Gate to a New World?
Hao Xiaoxi frowned and asked, "Can't we do anything?" β
If humanity can come up with a fantastical plan to push the Earth out of the solar system, can't it be impossible to think of a way to circumvent the distorted field in front of us?
"I'm afraid so." The scientist looked bitter, "The size of the earth is too large, we are just ants living on it, and there is no way to change the direction of its progress in just three days." β
Humans are too small.
In the face of this sudden distortion of the field, even if the global think tanks meet together, they are helpless.
"But ......"
The scientist changed his words: "Although we can't prevent the Earth from entering the warped field, we can try to launch some detection equipment into the warped field and see what happens after entering it." β
"In addition, the Navigator space station should be released from the accompanying flight status, and it should be ready to start the Tinder program at any time."
Project Tinder?
Hao Xiaoxi chuckled in his heart.
Just in case, the coalition government has kept 300,000 human fertilized eggs on the Navigator space station, as well as a database necessary to rebuild human civilization in the event of the destruction of the planet.
Once the earth suffers an irreparable disaster, the Navigator space will break away from the earth and wander alone in the universe to preserve the fire of human civilization.
That's the Tinder Project.
Proposing to start the Tinder plan means that human civilization has reached a critical juncture of life and death.
Hao Xiaoxi took a deep breath to calm down.
She nodded, "I see." β
The scientist bowed slightly, then turned away.
Hao Xiaoxi sat alone in the empty office of the coalition government, feeling a strong sense of confusion in his heart.
If it were Mr. Zhou, what would he do?
Zhou Zhezhi's physical condition deteriorated, and after the lunar crisis was resolved, he went to the hospital for treatment, and now Hao Xiaoxi is acting as the agent of the coalition government in all matters.
Hao Xiaoxi originally thought that she was capable of this position, because she had studied with Zhou Zhezhi for more than ten years and was familiar with everything about the coalition government.
But now she was a little suspicious of herself.
She suddenly realized that sitting in this position entailed much more than just paperwork, but also a heavy responsibility on her shoulders β the responsibility to carve out a way out for human civilization.
......
"At present, the world's top team of scientists is holding an online meeting to discuss the response, and the coalition government will do its best to ensure the safety of the lives of the people!"
In the afternoon of the same day, the coalition government issued a notice.
The coalition government did not hide this information from the public, because the field was not difficult to observe, and it only took a telescope to see the distant stars moving on a large scale.
Rather than let the people speculate, it is better for the government to come forward and answer.
After the announcement was issued, everyone knew that a mysterious field of distorted starry sky appeared in front of the earth, and people were panicked for a while.
"What's that? Wormholes? β
"Maybe it's the space turbulence that can tear the earth apart!"
"We've just gotten out of the Earth-Moon crisis and we're involved in a new catastrophe?"
"Helium flash is a scam!"
"The coalition government will kill everyone!"
β......β
There was panic among the people, and everywhere they heard unfavorable rhetoric against the coalition government.
"The escort maneuver is terminated."
"The space station is loading evacuation procedures."
There was silence in the Navigator space station, with only the sound of 550W echoing through the long corridors.
Whewβ
A 550W terminal moves in front of the space glass, and the red camera is facing the blue planet in the distance, and it stops here for a long time, as if staring at something.
At this moment, a screeching voice suddenly sounded in the space station.
"Warning!"
"Earth's gravitational pull surges!"
Wow - Wow - Wow -
The moment the alarm sounded, the camera's aperture zoomed in a few meaningless clicks.
"Earth's gravitational pull is surging, and the Tinder program can't be carried out?"
As soon as Hao Xiaoxi finished the meeting, she received a news that surprised and unbelievable.
"Yes."
The scientist reported in a solemn voice: "The Earth's gravitational pull on the Navigator space station has doubled out of thin air!" β
Hao Xiaoxi felt confused: "Isn't gravity fixed?" β
The scientist smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It stands to reason that it should be fixed, but now it is not certain whether it is reasonable or not." β
Hao Xiaoxi was silent.
Oh, yes!
Now it is not certain whether there is a reason or not, and if there is a reason to follow, the earth will not burst out of thin air to push the moon away.
The scientist continued: "The thrusters on board the space station cannot keep the space station away from Earth, only to keep the space station in its original orbit. β
"Project Tinder was forced to terminate!"
There is no way to stop Earth, nor to get the Navigator space station to escape, and humanity seems to have to sit back and wait.
At this moment, Hao Xiaoxi felt a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.
She nervously asked, "The world's top scientists have been discussing for an afternoon, have they come up with anything?" β
"There has been no substantial progress, but there is a conjecture." The scientist replied, "Assuming that all the strange phenomena that are happening so far originate from an advanced civilization that we can't observe, then we don't have to worry about entering a distorted field." β
"At least we can relax before we get through the warp field."
Hao Xiaoxi was stunned.
High Civilization ......
Hearing the word, she felt conflicted.
On the one hand, she does not want the existence of an advanced civilization that is much more powerful than humans, but on the other hand, what is happening on Earth is really beyond the scope of what humans can currently understand.
And there is one thing that scientists are quite right.
Assuming that all the strange phenomena that are currently happening originate from some advanced civilization, including the Distorted Field itself, then there is no need for humans to worry about traveling through the Distorted Field.
Because this high civilization helped humanity during the earth-moon crisis, even if this high civilization has other plans for mankind, it should not let humanity be destroyed in a distorted field in a daze.
"If advanced civilizations really exist, then the distorted field in front of the earth is likely to be a wormhole."
The scientist said again.
Wormholes are high-speed bridges across the starry sky and are commonly found in various science fiction works.
While no one knows exactly what a wormhole looks like, there is a consensus that the space around the wormhole must be distorted.
Warp fields fit this very well.
If the Distortion Field is a wormhole, then it is not the graveyard of human civilization, but the gateway to a new world for human civilization.
But the existence of a higher civilization is only a conjecture.
Is the Warp Field a tomb or a gate?
If it is the gate, what awaits the humans who have not yet stepped out of the shadows?
It won't be clear until three days later.
