At the sound of an order, the proton cannon exploded.

Ten proton cannons spewed out a proton frenzy one after another. The proton cannon itself was developed on the basis of a particle accelerator.

The technology of the Ocean Group to produce particle cannons for the time being is simple to say, but it is not so easy in reality. However, the predecessor of the particle cannon, the proton cannon, was made.

In fact, the proton cannon technology is not bad, and the power of a single proton itself is also very considerable. At 0.99 times the speed of light, the mass of a proton expands by a factor of about eight (which is very small, of course), but such a proton has the ability to crush atoms and destroy the structure of the material.

It's just that the number of protons in the proton cannon is too small to form a weapon-grade particle density. In addition, the biggest problem with the proton cannon is the range. The protons fired by the proton cannon are charged and easily affected by the environment. In the interstellar environment, the last thing that is missing is the various electromagnetic environments.

In fact, the entire Tian Yuan galaxy is shrouded in the sun's magnetic field.

Therefore, if the proton cannon is to be used as a weapon, it is inherently insufficient. The particle cannon should emit 'neutrons'! But if you want to accelerate uncharged neutrons, the technical difficulty is even higher.

In addition, the particle cannon itself is huge, and it is almost impossible to research weapons for the time being.

But the proton cannon is enough as some kind of tool for close use.

Ten proton cannons were fired, and hundreds of millions of protons poured out wildly, taking on a plasma posture. They are controlled by a computer and bombard precisely on the crest of the fold in front of them.

According to calculations, and according to theoretical derivation, the crest of the space-time fold is the most vulnerable.

Sure enough, the attack worked!

Everyone seemed to hear some kind of crack, and then they saw that there was nothing in front of them, a void space, and suddenly a dark crack appeared.

Yes, dark cracks.

In space, it is pitch black, there is nothing, there is no light, of course it is pitch black. But at this moment, everyone saw another kind of 'pitch black' - here, there are no basic laws, no time and space, it is a real 'nothingness'!

But this phenomenon disappeared in a flash. The space-time itself has a powerful ability to heal itself. In other words, this wound created by humans is like a needle stabbing a 'hole' in the sea – if it can be done at all.

Time and space are another higher sea. The destruction of this 'wound' created by human beings may not be as good as the impact of the gravitational pull of the planet on time and space.

However, although the space-time rift had healed, the technicians of the Ocean Group had measured the speed at which it healed - 3.7 times the speed of light!

"Is it 3.7 times the speed of light?" Feng Songjie nodded, "Come again." This time, the rift in time and space was a little bigger. ”

Found a way, this time the hole was twice the size of the previous one. As a result, the measured healing speed was up to 5.6 times the speed of light!

Feng Songjie smiled when he saw the new data, "Before I came here, Huang Mingshan told me that there are only two things in the world that are faster than light. That's time, space. Combined, it's time and space.

Time is ethereal and unpredictable. But space, we can now touch. To achieve faster-than-light flight, we need to embed the spaceship in a space-time rift, and then constantly destroy space-time, allowing space-time to heal at its own speed to propel us forward. ”

One of the engineers suddenly turned his head and said, "Captain, if we continue to destroy time and space, we will only be able to speed 0.99 times the speed of light at the fastest." After all, weapons have a limited attack speed. ”

All:...... Sounds reasonable.

Feng Songjie snorted, "Scientists have long considered this. As long as our ship can be embedded in the rift of spacetime, everything will change. ”

"But the problem now is that the speed of our spacecraft can't keep up with the speed at which the space-time rift is healing. ”

Feng Songjie: ......

Sure enough, after more than half a month of subsequent attempts, the spacecraft could not keep up with the speed at which the crack healed. No matter what kind of attempts, what kind of means, and even remote contact with the core scientific researchers of Dayang Group, they have not been able to find a way.

God seems to be taunting stupid humans - they have long thought of a way to deal with you.

But human wisdom is infinite. Finally, Zhang Xiaoning, who was far away on the Tianyuan Star, gave an opinion: Time and space are everywhere, and it exists not only outside the spaceship, but also inside the spacecraft! This is completely different from the seawater.

Therefore, we don't need to chase the open space-time rift, we can directly tear the space-time rift at a specific location of the spaceship!

That's a brilliant idea. So the spacecraft returned from space and began to be refitted.

In the summer of Tian Yuan 51, the chronospacecraft set off again. This time, the space-time rift was successfully opened, and the spaceship and the like were captured by the space-time rift.

Then, something amazing happened.

Only half of the spacecraft can be seen in space, and the other half disappears. But the people inside the ship came in and out, unaffected. Looking up from the bottom half of the spaceship, you can only see nothing, only an empty starry sky. It was as if the bottom half of the ship had completely disappeared.

And this state is actually very stable!

At the suggestion of scientists, an unmanned probe was launched. The unmanned detector is half in the real world, and half is hidden by the space-time rift. But as soon as the probe was launched, it was torn apart in an instant.

The half of the real world rolled directly in the void, and the other half hidden in time and space was nowhere to be found. The incision is so smooth that even the nucleus is cut.

Seeing the smooth section of this probe, Feng Songjie and the others were in a cold sweat - they just wanted to fly like this.

Wiping a handful of cold sweat, Feng Songjie said with a slight tremble: "It seems that you can't be lazy and continue to bombard the space-time rift." ”

As the proton cannon bombarded the spacecraft in front of it, something even more fantastic happened. Space-time automatically repairs from behind, and in the process of repairing, the ship is propelled forward.

The state of the spaceship at this time is also a bit peculiar, in this state, the proton cannon can directly contact time and space. Or rather, it should be called 'grain boundaries'!

When the proton cannon stabilizes, space-time heals at 22 times the speed of light - that is, the ship is moving at 22 times the speed of light!

In front of the ship, there is a proton cannon that constantly roars. The proton cannon shattered space-time, pushing the spaceship forward as it healed. The ship's engines were turned off.

However, after the novelty, everyone started research, and there are many problems encountered now:

First of all, the interior of the ship does not seem to be affected, and various physical rules are still available. As for whether there is a change, it must be strictly inspected.

Secondly, once the item falls out of the spaceship, if it falls outside the starry sky, it will be thrown behind by the spaceship - because the spaceship is now moving faster than light, so what is the state of the item falling outside, everyone does not know, and it cannot be seen!

But once the object falls into the space-time grain boundary, it will advance with the grain boundary, and then be melted and swallowed by the grain boundary little by little!

Only the spaceship, half in the grain boundary and half in the real world, seems to be able to resist the devouring power of the grain boundary.

Last but not least, this faster-than-light way of moving forward causes too many fluctuations. I'm afraid that I can detect it from afar!

But fortunately, he is in good shape at the moment. Seeing that the spacecraft was in a stable state, Feng Songjie immediately ordered: "Target: Sixty light-years away Old Man Star!"

Let's go!"

The ship is moving forward at 22 times the speed of light. It only took two years and more than two hundred days to enter the gravitational range of the old man's star.

Compared with the Tian Yuan Star, the Old Man Star actually has two suns, and the size, brightness, and temperature of the two suns are significantly higher than the suns of the Tian Yuan Galaxy.

Looking at the two stars who love each other from afar, everyone was a little crazy for a while. The wonder of the universe is breathtaking. Especially with the hovering of two stars, there is even a small mass planet left and right - the trajectory of people is a 'figure 8' catwalk!

It's just that before Feng Songjie could express some emotion, the crew member in charge of the investigation exclaimed: "Above, in the direction of three o'clock, I found ...... Discover the fleet!

Oh no, they seem to have spotted us!"
