Lan Mu was speechless and said, "Is this an explanation?"
"Is it not enough?" Silver Heart asked.
Lan Mu said, "First, let me confirm. Are our definitions of particles the same? Don't tell me that space-time is matter? "
"It's matter. Looks like you understand now," Silver Heart said with relief.
"What do I understand? Is your definition of matter the same as mine? "
After saying that, Lan Mu suddenly seemed to understand something. After all, he had reached level five and his understanding of matter had deepened.
If matter was the distribution of mass in space, it would be too narrow.
Because time was not substituted. Without substituting time, there was no way to explain whether the two particles without mass, photons and gluons, were matter.
Particles without mass had mass when they were in motion. They could produce 'force' and could also be affected by 'force'.
These were actually the characteristics of matter. Therefore, level five civilizations' definition of matter was to unify force, energy, and matter. It could be said that all of them were matter.
And Silver Heart's explanation just now had actually enlightened him.
If space-time itself was matter, then what else in the world was not matter? The technology of the Silver Heart Civilization was not just about unifying force, energy, and the like. They had unified the basic elements of the universe.
Time, space, matter, energy.
Level five civilizations unified the latter two. Matter and energy were the same thing. Matter could produce force, energy could also produce force. Under the unified effect of force, matter and energy were the same thing.
What about the Silver Heart Civilization? They unified all four?
"To you, the universe is only matter, right? How did you unify space-time? "Lan Mu asked.
Silver Heart said, "The universe is not only matter, but space-time is one. Why do you want to separate it? We have already discovered space-time particles and understood the entire process of the birth of 'force'. We have built a mathematical model.
"Space-Time particles have the characteristics of both time and space, and 'force' also comes from its density."
Silver Heart rambled on, but Lan Mu did not understand at all.
He was still far from understanding Silver Heart's theory of unifying the universe.
Silver Heart seemed to have noticed that he did not understand at all, so he made an analogy. "Time has never existed alone. Space-Time itself is one. The entire universe's space-time is one substance. As for whether there are other elements, there is, and that is information. It gives all matter properties and characteristics, and the two make up this universe. "
"This principle is everywhere, especially when it is perfectly expressed in life. You are an artificial intelligence lifeform, a combination of a wave-state consciousness and a body. Even if we don't count your body, just your consciousness alone can be divided into the intelligence born from the combination of wave matter and program arrangement. "
"Then I'll use matter as a carrier and information as a program. Do you understand now?"
Lan Mu was stunned. "What if I'm a carbon-based creature?" he asked.
"It's the same. It's a combination of the soul and the body. Even if the body isn't included, the soul alone is also an intelligent consciousness born from the combination of soul matter and information arrangement."
Hearing this, Lan Mu understood what the other party meant.
In fact, ordinary substances could also be classified in this way, because every substance had its own characteristics.
Its characteristics came from its permutation and combination. If the composition was this, then the composition would be that. This was information in a broad sense.
Starting from the Abyss, Lan Mu began to come into contact with 'information'. It was not just information that was understood by modern people.
From a materialistic point of view, the universe objectively existed. Even if there was no life, no thought, and no one had ever observed, thought, or understood the universe, it still existed.
Did the universe not exist if there were no people? If there was, then it proved that information objectively existed. It was a property of matter and had nothing to do with how humans thought about it.
All the natural laws of the universe were information. The mass, volume, shape, and so on of matter were all information. The composition and arrangement of matter in the microscopic world were also information.
Humans explored the truth of the universe, and in fact, they were constantly refining this information and understanding it in depth.
…
Lan Mu sighed. The Silver Heart Civilization had already interfered with the most basic composition of the universe.
Who knew how they did it? If space-time particles really existed, then they must have reached the limit of the microscopic world, surpassing the physics boundary of Planck's constant.
In the microscopic world, which was smaller than ten to the negative thirty-fifth power, there was no need to divide it anymore, because the laws of physics in a narrow sense had disappeared.
"How did you discover the space-time particles? Since that domain is the source of the birth of force, the laws of physics have lost their effect. What method did you use to interfere? "Lan Mu asked.
Once again, the Silver Heart Civilization only used one sentence to explain everything.
"High-dimensional interference."
Lan Mu was speechless. A proton was an existence like a star system in the higher dimensions. The speed of light was different there, let alone Planck's constant.
This was actually nonsense, but the Silver Heart Civilization did not need to explain how they interfered with the higher dimensions.
"If you have doubts and want to keep asking, then I won't be able to satisfy your curiosity."
"Okay, okay, I won't ask about the principle. I just want to know if you guys can communicate over a long distance for a simple living thing that doesn't carry any programmed tools? Or tamper with it? This is the last question. I guarantee it will be the last one! " Lan Mu gave up on trying to understand their technology and did not beat around the bush. He simply used the stupidest method and asked directly.
"Is it a creation of nature?" The Silver Heart Civilization asked.
Lan Mu said, "If it's a creation of nature and not man-made, then you can't …"
"Yes …"
"…"
Lan Mu's heart suddenly sank.
"… But it's very difficult, especially for living things. Although things like souls and waves of consciousness also have the so-called mysteries of 'programming', we're not able to transmit information to the mind of any living thing at will. In comparison, the things created by intelligent creatures are much simpler. Transmitting information to an artificial intelligence is nothing more than electromagnetic waves, gravitational waves, quantum transmission, and so on. There's no need to analyze the structure of the artificial intelligence's consciousness at all. It can see by itself, "The Silver Heart Civilization continued.
Lan Mu was pleasantly surprised. It made sense. They could send signals to the artificial intelligence's communicator from a long distance. It was very simple. But doing the same thing to the brain of a natural creature was definitely much more difficult.
Since the other party did not want to do it directly, it meant that tampering with it was very difficult.
At this moment, nature showed its power.
Without saying anything, Lan Mu immediately transformed into Cell and flew rapidly toward the neutron star.
His Ki was exploding wildly, displaying the strongest state of this body.
The terrifying gravitational force of the neutron star caused light to bend. No one would have thought that a living thing would set foot on this land of death.
"Ugh …"
The gravitational force was too terrifying. Cell's body hit the hard surface of the neutron star with terrifying acceleration. His body was almost crushed into a meat patty. As for blood, that thing did not even have a chance to show up.
Also, his self-healing ability had disappeared. His escape speed was so high that light had to take a detour. His body's self-healing factor could not move at all.
As for the pulse, it was still okay. He did not know if it was the effect of the Frieza bloodline, but the neutron pulse did not harm him at all.
"Should I transform into the Golden Crow? This environment can definitely … "
Lan Mu wanted to see what the Golden Crow would do. In the end, after lying on the surface for a few seconds, the cells in his body that combined the strong races of the three universes began to change.
Especially the Frieza bloodline, it allowed Lan Mu to gradually adapt to the environment here. He was able to withstand the high temperature of ten million.
"It's fine now …" After a few more minutes, Lan Mu tried to move and finally stood up.
He chose his landing spot very well. After sensing the location of the fragment, he landed near it.
"Huh … I'm here? Where is it? "
Lan Mu looked at the ground with a confused expression. According to his senses, the fragment of the Life Sphere was inside the neutron star's core!
"Pu!"
Lan Mu sighed. He knew that this was definitely the doing of the Silver Heart Civilization. Since they wanted to seal the fragment, they would definitely not let it stay on the surface.
"Forget it, I'll go back and think of a way."
In fact, there were many ways to open the neutron star. A level-5 civilization would do, so Lan Mu could do it too.
However, the problem was that he could not take out any man-made mechanical products, including his Ultron transformation. Otherwise, he would give the Silver Heart Civilization an opportunity.
Just as he was thinking of a way to open the neutron star without the help of scientific tools.
The rotation of the Life Sphere was getting faster and faster. This feeling was as if the fragment was getting closer and closer.
"It seems like I don't have to do anything?"
After waiting for more than ten minutes, an unknown object instantly entered his brain from his feet and merged with the Life Sphere.
It was time to start!
"So that's how it is. The large fragment itself has some of the characteristics of the Life Sphere. It has its own autonomy and merged with my Life Sphere obediently."
Lan Mu was pleasantly surprised. Finally, he had managed to patch up a large fragment after so much effort!
Just when he was happy, a brainwave suddenly appeared in his mind. He thought for a moment and understood.
"What did you do?" This tone, this method, it was actually the Silver Heart Civilization.
Lan Mu frowned.
"What happened to the difficult part? How long has it been and you're already talking to me directly? "
The Silver Heart Civilization said sternly, "Artificial life form, answer me, what did you do?"
Lan Mu suddenly realized that Cell was an artificial life form. No wonder he could reconnect with his brain so quickly.
"What do you think?"
Silver Heart Civilization said, "After merging with that thing, your genetic information is obscure. We've already learned our lesson once. This time, we won't let you off."
"You should know that I haven't changed at all, right? I'm different from the Zergs, "Lan Mu said.
"Why can you merge with it?" Of course, Silver Heart knew the difference.
He couldn't say what Lan Mu wanted to say.
"You won't understand even if I tell you."
Silver Heart paused for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect someone to say this to them. In the past, they were the ones who said this to others.
Feeling the calmness of the other party, Lan Mu said again, "You know that I can switch my life form, right?"
"Yes, even we can't fully understand the mysteries of life. How were you born?" Silver Heart asked.
"You don't have to worry about that. In short, you should know that if I switch my life form, I can restrain your technology. If you mess around, I'll hold a grudge." Lan Mu threatened the other party. He knew that Silver Heart had some unknown suspicions about him. If he was weak, it would be bad for him.
The other party was silent again. Under that calmness, Lan Mu thought that the other party was trying to attack him. He almost transformed into the Golden Crow and flew away.
However, he didn't notice any changes in his body. Then, a new message appeared in his mind.
"Please satisfy the curiosity of a level-6 civilization."
