Chapter 276 "Advent Protocol"!
November 9th, morning.
There was still half a day left before the mission was due. Colin was holding a cup of milk tea in one hand and the report sent by Qin Chuan and others yesterday in the other, and was curiously flipping through the information on it.
"'The double-slit interference experiment has some anomalies related to extraordinary things'..."
"To put it simply, it's an experiment about photons. The results are always different when someone is observing or not. Is there such an uncertain thing in science? It sounds creepy..."
"However, this experiment only presents this uncertainty in the 21st century. Since the 21st century, the experiment has completely failed. No matter where in the world the experiment is conducted and no matter whether there are observers or not, the experimental results always show the state of 'with observers'. It seems as if there is always something observing this place..."
Seeing this, Colin suddenly couldn't help but shiver with an inexplicable chill, as if something was staring at him.
He then proceeded to review the report.
These experiments are very interesting and have never been heard of or seen in textbooks.
As mentioned later, in the new century, not long after the experiment failed, extraordinary things began to be noticed.
Then someone connected these things together.
"A considerable number of people believe that we are always under the watchful eyes of something, especially senior personnel. However, although this statement has been put forward by many people, it cannot be truly confirmed."
"In addition, not only this, although the laws of physics at the macroscopic level have not changed much, at the microscopic scale, many experiments have shown results that are completely opposite to those before the 21st century."
"The most widely accepted theory among researchers at present is that an anomaly occurred on December 31, 1999. Well, according to this theory... in other words, things related to the extraordinary only appeared after the 21st century, and there were no such things before that?"
Colin thought about it and guessed that this was probably the case. Then he flipped through the back of the report, which mentioned some experiments being influenced by extraordinary things in the hope of developing new technologies.
Sadly, there has been some progress, with things like reality stabilizers, but it's not a lot if you count them all.
Overall, there has not been much progress, no disruptive situation has occurred, and many advances remain in the experimental stage, with very few being put into practical use.
For example, "fortune telling" directly observes the experimental results. For many things, we can only get the results but not the process, so we don't know what went wrong.
But it is the same experiment, when "fortune prediction" is supplemented by "luck", the results become different.
But the problem is...
Without the blessing of "luck", the effect will change back and no one knows the specific situation.
However, some senior personnel who cooperated with the experiment, such as Mr. Wu, believed that the specific process could also be shown in the "Book of Numerology".
The reason why it is not displayed may be due to some unknown protection mechanism in the "Book of Numerology".
Because, according to the speculation of Mr. Wu and other senior members, even in the most ordinary experiment, if every change process is fully displayed and absolutely complete information is obtained, the amount of information is enough to kill the ninth-level personnel in an instant...
They have a way to get information, but they have no way to carry it.
Moreover, although allowing extraordinary people of specific paths to cooperate in the experiment can reduce some consumption, it is life-threatening.
Therefore, Extraordinary People will not participate in non-important experiments, especially valuable high-level Extraordinary People.
"Does this thing called the 'Book of Numerology' have a protection mechanism?"
Colin himself didn't notice anything. He had been cheated badly several times, so now he didn't dare to use it casually, for fear of seeing something he shouldn't see.
Moreover, as far as he knew, there was a chance that sufficiently advanced beings would discover that they were using this thing.
For example, "hunger". The opponent can even launch a counterattack based on this "observation"!
"However, although the results are not great at this stage, it seems uncertain in the future."
"According to what is said above, the current extraordinary influence and overall strength of power are increasing over time."
"Perhaps in the next few years, the influence of the extraordinary on real matter will reach a new stage, and then there will be subversive results. Some people predict that it may reach its maximum value in 2044. Tsk, it's this time again..."
Colin shook his head, scanned the information above, and picked up another one.
The above records some reports of abnormal events. He flipped through the directory and found the information around Coast City. After reading it, Colin got two pieces of news, one good and one bad -
There are very few events in Coast City, including the province where it is located, and its economy is among the worst in the country.
But the bad news is that there is a strange isolated island in a sea area less than 400 kilometers away from this place. Its hazard level is A+, which is the highest level in the world today.
The "+" sign means that it has the potential to further become "S (civilization subversion)" level...
Near high-level disasters, there are usually fewer other troubles.
"Ah, if you don't come, it's fine, but if you come, come with a big one..."
Colin was somewhat speechless. He looked at the incident report carefully and found that the lower the level of the incident report, the more detailed it was. For a high-level report like this, there was only one short line of words -
"Currently, the anomaly is in a stable state."
The person in charge of the relevant disaster is Mr. Wu.
"But fortunately, nothing will happen in the near future. Unfortunately, the report does not provide detailed information. I will go back and ask the old gentleman about the specific situation..."
Colin sighed, put the relevant reports aside, crossed his legs and looked at the employees assigned to him by the authorities.
When he saw it, he was suddenly a little dumbfounded.
The authorities actually arranged for more than a dozen extraordinary people with level one or two in "fortune-telling" to team up with him.
"This... really thinks highly of me."
Colin did not refuse, but just shook his head with a helpless smile, then picked up all the previous documents, and flames surged on his palms, burning all the papers to ashes to prevent them from leaking out.
Through these documents, he had a clearer understanding of the world behind the scenes.
Not to mention the smaller ones, there are almost ten recorded A-level disasters all over the world, each of which can cause the tragedy of the destruction of an entire continent.
"This doesn't even include what I know. If that 'Script City' gets completely out of control one day, and a bunch of weird things from the dungeon world come out... Tsk."
"No wonder I heard that every country seems to have some kind of escape plan. If it really can't be suppressed one day, there is really no other way except to escape."
Colin suddenly felt helpless and powerless.
How could the Earth be so worthy that it could accommodate so many strange and anomalies?
However, he did not think too much about it. Colin knew that his current task was to find a way to become strong enough, otherwise he would have no way to protect himself and the people and things he cared about from the various abnormal events that were likely to occur in the future.
Then he sat on the chair and stretched heavily.
But at this moment, Colin's expression paused, as if he felt...
"I suddenly felt that some kind of restriction on me was loosened?"
Sitting up straight and feeling it, Colin discovered that this inexplicable relaxation was not due to him, but that the environment seemed to have changed.
He felt that operating in this kind of environment might allow him to use his strength more easily.
However, some intuition told him that this might not be a good thing.
But he couldn't take care of that. Colin looked at the time and saw that the mission was about to begin. He sent text messages to Mr. Wu and Qin Chuan respectively, asking if there were any changes. Then he returned to his bedroom, lay on his bed, and closed his eyes .
Not long after, a distant and ancient voice suddenly rang in my ears.
"Shit! That sound is 'Advent Protocol'! This is no ordinary mission!"
The old time traveler Colin realized something in an instant, but before he could think about it, his expression was dazed for a moment, and when he came to his senses, he found himself in a confined and narrow space.
A kind of indescribable oppression made him feel suffocated and uncomfortable.
