I used the method of electron spin resonance to test the three statues again. "
X-112 said, "According to the calculations, this is just an ordinary stone formed by calcium carbonate and silicon dioxide, but no matter how we use ultrasound or electromagnetic wave testing, we can't detect the internal structure of the statues. It seems that the interior of the statues is made of lead.
"Since we can't detect the internal structure, I simply measured the time when they were carved. Using the radiation-induced effect to determine the age, we found that they were carved recently."
Chen Chen was shocked when he heard this. Did it not mean that these three statues would be detected as newly carved statues no matter when they were tested?
X-112 continued to report, "But the problem is that these three statues were found under 2111 Basin and have been buried for at least fifteen years. However, the surveillance in Elysium only lasts for twenty-six thousand two hundred and eighty hours, which is the third anniversary. I've checked all the surveillance records and still can't find when the three statues were buried here."
Looking at the video sent by X-112, Chen Chen showed a thoughtful look.
These three stone statues reminded him of the story of the "three no monkeys".
The three no monkeys were three monkeys half-squatting on the ground. One covered its eyes, one covered its mouth, and the last covered its ears.
According to legend, the three no monkeys originated from the Analects of Confucius: "See no evil, speak no evil, and hear no evil." The implied meaning was "Don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't listen to what you shouldn't hear, and don't say what you shouldn't say."
However, compared with the charmingly naive appearance of the three no monkeys, the three statues on the screen were different.
Be it in terms of lines or style, the three statues were much simpler and more primitive than those of the Three Godless Monkeys.
However, it was precisely because they were too primitive and simple that they even gave people a strange feeling. Whether it was the dark hollow eyes or the bottomless mouth of the abyss, they could provoke the deepest fear in the human heart.
"It's also 2111 Basin and the statues produce abnormal phenomena that violate reality. No matter how I look at it, the extinction of humans in Elysium's dimension is related to these three statues...
"But how did these three statues do this? Why did they suddenly erupt in 2165 and wipe out all of humanity? What did the Gross family discover and why did they bury them in 2111 Basin? "
Chen Chen carefully savored all the information he had obtained, but the information was still too little to make further deductions.
After thinking about it, Chen Chen simply took out a recording pen and said into the microphone, "X-112, I've received your message. Follow my instructions from now on."
"First, I'll allow you to use any means to dismantle the three statues. If necessary, I'll allow you to destroy them."
"Secondly, collect all the information on the Gross Family from the past few centuries and send it to me."
"Thirdly, control an aircraft to investigate Earth and report the results of the investigation and the information of the Gross family to me."
After some thought, Chen Chen added, "Finally, if there's no progress in the research of the statue, give up on the Elysium dimension and transfer your program back to the hard drive. The Black Knights will bring it back to reality."
After saying all this, Chen Chen handed the recording pen to the Black Knight beside him.
Next, this recording pen would be thrown into the passage by the Black Knight and transmitted to X-112 on the other side of the passage.
After doing all this, Chen Chen could not help but feel a little heavy in his heart.
At first, he did not feel it when he used the USB flash drive, but as he used the USB flash drive more and more often, Chen Chen had a bad feeling.
Indeed, at present, it seemed that the USB flash drive only recognized sci-fi movies. Only movies that conformed to the logic of reality could be stored in the USB flash drive. However, it was precisely because he knew this rule that the existence of the three horror movies in the USB flash drive made Chen Chen restless.
Because no one knew what these three horror movies represented...
Initially, he thought that as long as he did not open these three horror movies, there would be no problems, but the movie Elysium had completely shattered Chen Chen's expectations.
So far, Chen Chen had only opened the passage to three movies.
Chronicle, Resident Evil, and Elysium.
The worlds that these three movies corresponded to gave Chen Chen a very bad feeling.
This was because the three dimensions he went to were all dimensions after the destruction of human civilization.
Resident Evil was one thing. This was originally an apocalyptic movie, but what about Chronicle and Elysium?
Was it a coincidence?
Or was it an inevitability?
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes. Although he did not want to admit it, at this moment, Chen Chen was once again walking on the border of death, and this kind of walking was inevitable.
To prove whether all of this was a coincidence or an inevitability, Chen Chen had to open more passages and go to more dimensions to verify all of this.
However, there was no need to think about this behavior, it was dangerous.
Just like the human civilization in Elysium's dimension, although the serious polarization caused the stagnation of technology, it still exceeded reality by more than half a century. However, this kind of civilization had quietly perished on an ordinary night...
To be honest, even a toad could jump a few times before it died.
The reason for its demise was likely caused by three statues that had long existed on Earth. Even the basic principles behind them were unknown.
For the first time, Chen Chen began to doubt the worldview he firmly believed in.
"Is there really an existence outside of science in this world?"
Chen Chen murmured in a low voice, then sneered and popped an NZT-48 into his mouth.
At once, Chen Chen's heart settled down and his originally scattered thoughts stabilized again.
Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Chen's mind. He still remembered that the famous physicist Kelvin, who left a strong mark in history, once predicted that airplanes that were heavier than air would never be able to fly. He thought that X-rays were a boring trick and that radio transmissions were useless...
Rutherford, who discovered the structure of the atom, believed that humans would never be able to create an atomic bomb.
The great philosopher Comte once predicted that science could not determine the composition of stars because in that era, it was impossible for people to fly to a certain planet to investigate.
As a result, within a few years, scientists analyzed the spectrum of sunlight and proved that the sun was composed of hydrogen, so there was no need to fly there at all...
Another example was that the Nobel Prize laureate Michelson once said that there would be no new physics discoveries in the future. As a result, four years later, quantum mechanics was born and now it had become a pillar of physics, letting people know that the laws of physics could be changed.
All of these examples proved that it was not religion and theology that limited the development of science, but the arrogance of using the known to explain the unknown.
So, was the extinction of humans in Elysium's dimension really not in line with science? Or was it just not in line with modern known science?
After reading the information sent by X-112 on the other side of the passage, Chen Chen received a report from Little X.
"Sir Godfather, I've made a list of that information."
Following Little X's words, a Black Knight came in with an A4 paper printed material as thick as a Xinhua dictionary.
"This is the technological information of Elysium's dimension?"
Chen Chen took the information and subconsciously flipped through it.
"No, this is just a table of all the information," Little X replied.
"..."
Chen Chen flipped through it casually, but his eyes lit up again.
This was because this information contained almost all the technology that human civilization could have. Flipping through it casually, there was a new way to manufacture alloys, which was a material called "high-displacement metal".
As this was just a table of contents, there was only a brief introduction to this technology:
"Artificial elements with aluminum isotopes as the main component. Aluminum atoms are filled with a large number of neutrons, causing the elemental structure to shift. Due to the high imbalance in the neutron content, it is extremely insensitive to energy conduction, so it can completely ignore heat below 10,000 degrees. The metal's strength and toughness, metal plasticity, and tensile strength are far superior to any alloy, so it is known as the hardest substance in the solar system."
Chen Chen's eyes lit up.
This alloy, whether used as the core of the vacuum chamber of the tokamak and stellarator, or the Laval nozzle of the rocket, was an excellent material. Even if used as a drill bit, cutting a diamond would be as easy as cutting tofu.
This was only one of the reasons.
Chen Chen turned to another page. When he saw the words on the information clearly, he suddenly stood up from his seat!
On this page of information, the words "normal-temperature superconductor" were written in large letters!
"A yttrium barium copper oxide prepared through a complex chemical reaction. The chemical formula is YBCO. Historically, it was the world's first superconducting material with a temperature above 77K. Later, it was experimentally discovered that this compound, after being irradiated by an infrared laser pulse, can form a room-temperature superconductor property of a few picoseconds. So, based on this principle, finally, thirty years later, a research team led by Obi-Cage successfully developed a room-temperature superconductor. In an environment below 35 degrees Celsius, the new material can maintain a resistivity of less than 10 ^ -18Ω."
Seeing this, Chen Chen took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.
The emergence of room-temperature superconductors was equivalent to a new industrial revolution. The impact on mankind was even greater than that of the first industrial revolution...
Was this the technology of Elysium's dimension? Emmmm...
Chen Chen turned to another page. Although he was already mentally prepared, when he saw this technology, Chen Chen still felt that it was almost surreal.
This turned out to be a complete super tokamak reactor!
As expected, this super tokamak reactor used high-displacement metals. With the heat resistance of high-displacement metals and the stability of room-temperature superconductors, the nuclear fusion reaction was as simple as a matter of course.
According to the information, the Q value of this kind of reactor could reach up to 1000!
After all, nuclear fusion was still different from nuclear fission. In the real world, so far, humans had only achieved controllable nuclear fission, which was nuclear fission power stations. Chen Chen's Blacklight Nuclear Power Plant was nuclear fission.
However, nuclear fission was intrinsically imperfect, but nuclear fusion was different. The energy released by deuterium-tritium fusion of the same mass was four times that of uranium nuclear fission. At the same mass, the molar mass of uranium-235 was 58.75 times that of helium-4. In other words, at the same mass, the difference in energy released by the two nuclear reactions could be as much as two or three hundred times!
Moreover, unlike uranium fission, which produced radioactive waste, nuclear fusion was a truly clean energy source. It was known that the content of deuterium in ordinary water was about 150 ppm. One liter of water contained 0.15 grams of deuterium.
According to scientists' calculations, the energy produced by the fusion of 0.01 grams of deuterium was equivalent to the energy released by the complete combustion of 100 liters of gasoline. This meant that if the deuterium in one liter of ordinary water was completely fused, it could release energy equivalent to the complete release of 1,500 liters of gasoline.
This was the terrifying aspect of nuclear fusion.
If the emergence of room-temperature superconductors was equivalent to the change in human society in history when humans first learned to use flames, then the success of nuclear fusion devices was equivalent to the birth of steam engines when humans first learned to use flames!
The birth of controllable nuclear fusion technology represented the birth of endless energy. Electricity was as ubiquitous as air and there was no longer any need to pay any electricity bills. At the same time, the production of all things in the world could eliminate the necessary cost of electricity bills.
This was only the initial change in people's lives. On a higher level, the birth of controllable nuclear fusion technology meant that the Earth could no longer restrain humans. Humans could go to any planet in the solar system they wanted with nuclear fusion engines. Going to a planet in the solar system was like traveling on a cruise ship in the sea. It would take at least a few days to half a month to arrive.
It was even possible to fly out of the Kuiper belt and go to other nearby star systems because the nuclear fusion engine could continuously accelerate the spacecraft until it accelerated to sub-light speed.
Moreover, when humans could reach sub-light speed, the wonderful changes in time and space would naturally update human physics once again...
Chen Chen exhaled and slowly closed the document.
It had to be said that the risk was proportional to the reward. Although Chen Chen faced the danger that was enough to destroy human civilization, the benefits he obtained also made a lot of money. As long as Chen Chen could fully understand these technologies, he could even lead humanity to a meteoric rise!
However, Chen Chen did not forget that the original reason he opened the Elysium passage was for the Medpod 3000 fully automated medical platform in Elysium.
According to the information, the reason why this platform could treat human diseases was still because of nanotechnology.
This was an extremely sophisticated nanomachines. By letting nanomachines enter the body, they repaired human cell damage and repaired the human body, thereby allowing humans to surpass the Hayflick limit and achieve a lifespan of more than three hundred years.
Moreover, this nanomachines even had the ability to build new cells, recombining broken cells, so as to make use of waste and produce living cells.
This could be described as a miracle.
