When he left the community center, Jiang Chen happened to meet Wang Qin, who was walking from the warehouse. He once again reminded her about the lack of staff in the software development department and asked about the progress of the warp drive at the Aerospace Science and Technology Research Institute. When he learned that the research on the warp drive was progressing slowly, Jiang Chen thought for a moment and ordered.
"Let's put the warp drive aside for now. Tell him to help me restore the technology related to the space elevator."
"Space elevator? But that thing can only be built on the equator, and we absolutely can't afford the terrifying amount of work. "Wang Qin looked at Jiang Chen in shock.
The Garden of Eden Project alone was already a huge waste of manpower and money. As for the space elevator, it was even more of a whimsical proposal for the current NAC.
"I only need the technical documents. I know the survivor settlements don't have the production conditions."
Seeing that Jiang Chen still insisted on his own opinion, Wang Qin didn't try to dissuade him anymore. After all, Jiang Chen was the NAC General. She was just the head of the logistics department and had no right to question the General's decision.
After returning to the mansion, Jiang Chen found Lin Lin, who was in the lab, and asked about the thing he had been concerned about.
"Interdimensional travel is prohibited? This is a serious problem … "Lin Lin leaned back in the chair, put her hands behind her head, and thought carefully. The lollipop in her mouth made the sound of teeth chattering from time to time.
"Do you have any idea?" Jiang Chen asked.
"No," Lin Lin said straightforwardly. "Can you describe the situation at the time in detail?"
Jiang Chen described the situation in City K in detail. Including the relationship between the Kurofune and the colonial ship, their conspiracy to assassinate him, and the sudden outbreak of the zombie virus …
"You can open the storage dimension, but you can't interdimensional travel?" Lin Lin put her fingers on the stick in her mouth and muttered to herself, "There seems to be some idea … but is this theoretically feasible?"
"What is it?" Jiang Chen asked immediately.
Lin Lin took out the lollipop, sighed, walked to the whiteboard on the wall of the lab, and picked up a black marker.
"I remember explaining to you a year ago that in the multiverse theory, these are two parallel lines, and you are a grasshopper on one of the lines … a grasshopper that can jump between the two lines. Because for you, there is a door between these two lines. "
There was a circle in the middle of the two lines. Lin Lin's drawing skills were as bad as ever, but it didn't prevent Jiang Chen from understanding.
"The Klein particles use you as a node, which is equivalent to your two hands grabbing onto two lines, so you can freely move between the two worlds. Let's call it the Singularity. "
Singularities had different explanations in astronomy and physics, but in the end, they could be summarized as an independent and finite point in the universe. Everything that happened here could not be explained by conventional science, or perhaps human knowledge and experience were insufficient to explain it. For example, "1 + 1 = 2" in other places, but "1 + 1 = 3" at this point. Classical physics was not applicable here, and physical quantities did not even exist.
And Jiang Chen's existence at the moment was such a singularity.
Even with the most cutting-edge physics knowledge at the end of the 22nd century, Lin Lin couldn't explain how he could open that "door".
Jiang Chen also couldn't explain this feeling. Crossing worlds was as easy as breathing and drinking water for him. It was as if the "door" was right in front of him, and he just extended his foot.
"Ordinary people can't see or touch this door, even if they spend their entire life. But now there is a small accident. " Lin Lin added a dot on the line representing the modern world, which represented the colonial ship. "Now there is an unfriendly neighbor in the room. He came from the other side of the door. After thousands of years of research or evolution? Cultivation? In short, he touched the edge of the door and finally saw the door that he passed through but never saw. "
"But." Lin Lin's tone changed as she threw away the marker and pointed the lollipop in her hand at Jiang Chen. "He still can't pass through this door because the key is in your hands. I have to say, you are probably the luckiest man in the universe. "
"Lucky …?" Jiang Chen didn't deny what she said, but he couldn't be happy at the moment.
After a pause, he continued, "They can see the door, but what does this have to do with me not being able to pass through during that period of time?"
"Through special means to interfere with the movement of Klein particles, you should have discovered in the apocalypse that the bugs have mastered the application of Klein particles to perfection. Including the one in my body. " Lin Lin's finger tapped on her bare chest. "The Klein particle ray it emits can cause almost all electronic devices to collapse. In this case, I'm not surprised that they can develop other uses of Klein particles. "
"To put it in simpler terms, your neighbor's muscles are stronger than yours. Although they can't open the 'door' without the key, they can use brute force to hold the door shut for a period of time and prevent you from opening it."
"What an annoying neighbor … What about the storage dimension? If they can see the door, why don't they seal the storage dimension as well? "Jiang Chen was puzzled.
If the storage dimension was sealed, they could kill him on the plane.
Since he would have to take out power armor or other items to slow him down from the storage dimension, he would fall to his death on the plane.
"Your storage space is more like a circle, between two parallel lines. It's independent of the positive universe, but not in the negative universe. Since they are not in this room, they can't interfere. "
When Jiang Chen heard Lin Lin's explanation, he finally felt relieved.
But even so, he still didn't have much confidence in the war that spanned more than a hundred years.
"Are they still evolving? These bugs are really restless …" Jiang Chen sighed. "Let's not talk about this. How is the situation on your side? Garden of Eden. "
"It'll be completed in about half a year. Hehe, after all, it's a — "Lin Lin grinned. Just as she was about to praise herself, she was ruthlessly interrupted by Jiang Chen.
"How much money do you think I spent to build this Garden of Eden? Just the cost of materials alone would be two hundred million USD! "Jiang Chen fiercely ridiculed.
Two hundred million USD worth of materials, without considering the market saturation, if converted to NAC's own credit, it would be an astronomical figure!
As the initiator of the project, Lin Lin obviously knew how much of the budget she burned, so she awkwardly looked to the side.
"Umm … let's not talk about money. This is an epoch-making project. You can't just look at the economic benefits. "
"You're right. Anyway, it's my backyard. Maybe I'll have to live there in the future."
With one last comment, Jiang Chen put the "welcome gift" pudding on the table and walked to the door.
As if she saw something from his face, Lin Lin hesitated for a moment. When Jiang Chen put his hand on the door handle, she opened her mouth.
"Don't be discouraged. Even if you know the secret of the 'door', they are still afraid of you. Then there must be something about you that makes them afraid. "
"For example?" Jiang Chen asked without turning his head.
"You need to find out." Lin Lin paused, then smiled. Her elf-like silver hair exuded a rare warmth under the sunlight. "If possible, I want to eat a lot of pudding. Mango flavored. "
Jiang Chen stopped at the door, turned around, and responded to her expectation with a smile.
"I promise."
