Volume 3 Chapter 117: Rushing into the Black Hole at the Center of the Milky Way
Lin Xu turned and left.
Everything behind him disappeared in an instant.
He did not pass through the previous bizarre scenes, but appeared directly in the lobby in front of the elevator.
Looking in all directions, there were still countless halls and countless scenes of Lin Xu followed by Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, Nanzhu, and Lu Yao.
But by this time, they were no longer surprised.
Without even taking a second look at the scenes, he walked straight into the elevator.
The elevator then went up and left the underground directly.
We left the base along the same route we came from.
After taking off, it passed through the entrance and exit of the subspace, left the subspace, and returned to the asteroid in the normal universe.
At this time, opposite to the tens of thousands of meters open exit of the subspace, in the tens of thousands of meters large entrance and exit of Lin Xu's personal space, a large number of autonomous machines were still busy moving various equipment.
Almost half of the base on the asteroid in the subspace has been demolished.
"Master, should the core area be demolished?" Yinghuo asked.
However, Lin Xu hesitated.
The information left by humans here, or the shadow of Wang Jian, has disappeared.
The ruins have been almost completely demolished, so there is no point in leaving behind a core area.
However, once this core area is removed and this high-dimensional weak point is left, the original high-dimensional characteristics are likely to disappear.
This is why Lin Xu hesitated.
Ten thousand years ago, humans had just begun to have a preliminary understanding of higher dimensions, and were able to build this core area with high-dimensional characteristics by taking advantage of the characteristics of this high-dimensional weak point.
Once you leave here, the high-dimensional characteristics will inevitably disappear.
But in the end, Lin Xu nodded.
"Tear it down. There's no point in keeping it here."
A few days later, all the bases on asteroids in the entire subspace had been dismantled and moved to Earth.
Including core areas.
The core area still maintains its high-dimensional characteristics, but when Lin Xu leaves, the high-dimensional characteristics will slowly dissipate until it returns to normal.
In the past few days, the intelligent computers on Earth have used the newly acquired new technology and the relocated equipment to create a miniaturized curvature engine that travels a thousand times the speed of light and installed it on the Skylark.
Even a vacuum zero-point energy collection device was manufactured. Although there was only one, it was enough for the Skylark to use.
Compared with the previous energy supply method of antimatter annihilation, vacuum zero-point energy is technically more difficult, but it is also safer and more efficient.
It is just right to support the huge energy consumption of the curvature engine that travels a thousand times the speed of light.
It was not until this time that Lin Xu suddenly realized the benefits of flying a small spaceship like the Skylark.
The modification is too simple. How long would it take to equip the entire earth with a new curvature engine and vacuum zero-point energy?
Of course, although Lin Xu has no intention of re-opening the Earth for the time being, the old curvature engine factories on Earth are already being transformed to produce new curvature engines that travel a thousand times the speed of light.
At the same time, a large number of vacuum zero-point energy factories are also under construction.
Then we will start upgrading the curvature engines of the entire earth, and also add vacuum zero-point energy to the earth.
However, these cannot be accomplished overnight. Since the Earth is in our personal space anyway, we can transform it slowly.
So, when the relocation of the subspace ruins was completed, the modification of the Skylark was also completed.
Lin Xu waved his hand to close the entrance and exit of the portable space that was tens of thousands of meters in size and had always been open.
The earth opposite the entrance and exit was hidden again in Lin Xu's personal space.
Lin Xu and his companions also returned to the cockpit of the Skylark, ready to continue their journey.
And this time the target is the Silver Center.
Lin Xu didn't know what the situation was there.
Maybe nothing will happen, but maybe there will be a high risk.
Although humans at that time finally succeeded in upgrading their dimensions, this shows that the fleet that set sail for the center of the Milky Way ten thousand years ago was finally safe.
But who knows if there will be any losses in the process, and how big the losses will be.
This is also the reason why Lin Xu did not open up the earth again.
Theoretically, the disordered filth that has now spread over hundreds of light years from the center of the Milky Way has become inert filth, has lost the ability to assimilate order, and is no longer harmful to the Earth.
But with a target as big as the Earth, and rushing into the real heart of the Milky Way, Lin Xu still felt unsure.
After all, the bigger the target, the more harm it may suffer.
So after much thought, I decided to use the Skylark. It is a small target and travels a thousand times the speed of light, so it is fast and it will be much easier to escape from various dangers.
But the current Earth is still traveling at a hundred times the speed of light. It is not known how long it will take to reach a thousand times the speed of light.
Weighing the pros and cons, it is better to use the Skylark.
As for the Earth, let's just continue to stay in our portable space.
In this way, the Skylark slowly rose from the asteroid.
However, Lin Xu did not retract the nanorobots that had spread around the asteroid.
In the past few days, the nanorobots that originally only covered the asteroid have been expanding in all directions, constantly eliminating the inert filth in the universe. After the inert filth lost the ability to assimilate order, coupled with the high-dimensional suppression of the weak points of the high dimension, it has been retreating step by step.
When Lin Xu was about to leave, there was already an entire area of space cleared around him.
Lin Xu looked at this piece of space, and then looked at the nanorobots that were still expanding around him.
However, as the distance grew farther and farther, away from the high-dimensional suppression, facing endless inert filth, the expansion of the nanorobots became slower and slower.
So Lin Xu finally gave the order, all the nanorobots returned to the asteroid and waited for the clan's counterattack.
Then, the Skylark rushed into the inert filth and headed towards the true center of the galaxy.
All the disordered filth in Yin's heart has become inert filth.
So theoretically, even if Lin Xu doesn't need to open the high-dimensional state, the Skylark can still sail in the inert filth.
At most, it will be attacked by inert filth, but as long as there are nanorobots for protection, or just put up a circle of protective shield to resist the attack of inert filth, it will be enough.
But Lin Xu still opened the high-dimensional state and protected the Skylark as it rushed into the inert filth.
Because he wanted to practice more, it would be best if he could get used to being in a high-dimensional state at all times.
And now he doesn't need to continue to carry out high-dimensional interference to transform all the disordered filth in the passing areas into inert filth, so he won't feel tired.
"How far is this place from the true core of the Milky Way?" Lin Xu asked while sitting in the cockpit's driver's seat facing the porthole.
Although it was Yinghuo who was actually driving the Skylark, the driving seat and control devices were still retained for use in emergencies.
"Ten light years, master," Yinghuo replied.
"Ten light years, it will take about three and a half days to get there." Lin Xu nodded.
"What is the true core of the Milky Way?" Lu Yao, who was answering questions, raised her head and asked.
She is now always interested in things related to science.
Just like how she was fanatical about cultivation in the beginning.
"A black hole, a massive black hole that extends 0.3 light years." Mu Xiyue replied.
For an interstellar civilization, this should be common sense, but Lu Yao is a latecomer after all, so it is normal that she doesn't know it.
"Black hole? Are we going to rush into a black hole? Or a black hole with a range of 0.3 light years? What will happen then?" Lu Yao was stunned for a moment. She knew a lot about black holes, but the size was a bit too exaggerated.
"Who knows? Countless advanced civilizations have sent detection devices to the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, but to no avail. And humans lost contact after entering the black hole at the center of the Milky Way. This is why countless advanced civilizations are certain that humans can never come back, or have even perished." Mu Xiyue replied.
"So, do we really want to enter the black hole?" Lu Yao continued to ask weakly, raising her hand.
"Of course, otherwise why would we come here?" Lin Xu said as a matter of course.
"Okay, but is the current black hole at the center of the Milky Way still a black hole? Won't it be eroded by disordered filth?" Lu Yao thought for a while and asked.
"Do you know why there are high-dimensional weak points near the center of the Milky Way?" Lin Xu asked back.
"Could it be that black holes are related to higher dimensions?" Lu Yao reacted immediately.
"No, black holes have nothing to do with higher dimensions. Instead, time and space distorted by black holes will move toward higher dimensions, thus involving higher dimensions."
"Is there any difference?" Lu Yao asked.
"Of course there is a difference. Black holes are a distortion of time and space, but not all black holes involve higher dimensions. Only when the mass of a black hole is large enough, and the distortion of time and space reaches a certain extreme, will time and space get close enough to the higher dimensions and then become connected with the higher dimensions. And it happens that the mass of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way is large enough, so the time and space of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way begin to move infinitely close to the higher dimensions and become connected, which is why there are varying numbers of high-dimensional weak points formed around it." Lin Xu explained.
"So, the entire galactic center black hole is actually a huge high-dimensional weak point. Then, can't we reach the higher dimension by going directly through here?" Lu Yao realized it instantly.
"You misunderstood. This place is more like a place where certain boundaries between high dimensions and low dimensions are blurred. It is an intermediate area, a buffer zone, like a muddy area formed by a mixture of water and soil. It has some characteristics of both, but it is neither. If you want to reach the high dimension through here, it will be more troublesome than the weak points of the high dimension." Lin Xu continued to explain.
“So that’s how it is. But since it has both high-dimensional and low-dimensional characteristics, then disorder and filth cannot corrode it, right?” Lu Yao concluded.
“That’s right. Black holes in the universe are not immune to disorder and filth. They will still be corroded by disorder and filth because black holes are also a kind of order. But if the mass of the black hole is large enough, so large that the distorted time and space are associated with higher dimensions, then disorder and filth will have no effect on such a black hole.” Lin Xu finally explained.
Three days passed in a flash.
Everyone in the cockpit gathered in front of the porthole and sat in their seats.
Because the true core of the Milky Way is about to arrive.
Even Lin Xu fastened his seat belt.
From a high-dimensional perspective, he has already seen the area in front of him that extends for 0.3 light years, where the high-dimensional and low-dimensional parts overlap and are mixed together.
In this area, low dimensions and high dimensions are entangled with each other, producing many bizarre scenes in the eyes of low-dimensional intelligent creatures.
In this area, there is no pure high dimension, but only some of the rules of high dimension cover this place.
Therefore, there is no chaos energy here. Chaos energy is an energy that only exists in pure high dimensions.
"The black tide around us is becoming less and less." Lu Yao said as he looked out the porthole.
"We are already very close to the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, so there is very little disordered filth here. Now that the disordered filth has become inert filth, we must stay even further away from the center of the Milky Way." Lin Xu said casually.
Until the Skylark suddenly broke out of the black tide and left it completely behind.
Completely away from the area where inertia and filth exist.
But the few people who had been observing the scene outside the porthole did not look relaxed at all, because just after leaving the inert and filthy black tide area, what appeared in front of them was boundless and endless darkness.
Different from the darkness of the Kuroshio, this is the darkness of a black hole.
The black hole extends infinitely up, down, left and right, and is a full 0.3 light years across.
"Pay attention, we're going in." Lin Xu just reminded.
The Skylark, traveling at a thousand times the speed of light, has already rushed into the black hole.
In an instant, the light and shadows around began to distort.
Even the Skylark itself seemed to begin to twist.
Theoretically, the Skylark, which travels a thousand times the speed of light, would travel three light years a day.
0.3 light years is just over two hours.
So not long after Skylark entered the Milky Way's black hole, it was getting closer and closer to the core area of the Milky Way's black hole.
The closer you get to the core area of the Milky Way's black hole, the more bizarre the surrounding scenery becomes.
Lu Yao looked at the scene outside the window and soon began to feel overwhelmed.
"My head feels so swollen. What's going on?" Finally, he began to breathe rapidly.
"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?" Mu Xiyue immediately became nervous and held Lu Yao's hand.
"What happened to her? Why are we all fine?" Nanzhu also quickly held Lu Yao's other hand, puzzled.
"Is this because it can't bear the high-dimensional information?" Lin Xu looked at Lu Yao's condition and suddenly realized.
“Unable to withstand high-dimensional information? Just like those advanced civilizations that cannot directly observe chaotic energy.” Mu Xiyue understood at once.
The fairy ships have been fighting in the galaxy against advanced civilizations that casually discard the residues after using chaos energy. Naturally, they have a better understanding of the state of advanced civilizations when facing chaos energy.
Although the advanced civilizations in the Milky Way have various ways to use chaotic energy, they are unable to observe chaotic energy directly.
It is because the high-dimensional information contained in the chaotic energy is unbearable for low-dimensional creatures, causing them to go crazy and even do all kinds of incomprehensible things.
In the past, the human-immortal clan on the fairy ship could not directly observe the chaotic energy. But starting from a certain day, when the nanorobots changed and were able to directly fight against the disorder and filth, the human-immortal clan on the fairy ship could directly observe the chaotic energy.
The reason is naturally because humans have upgraded their dimensions. As the relatives of humans, the human-immortal clan has also gained the privilege of being able to directly look at high-dimensional energy.
The same is true now. Although the high-dimensional and low-dimensional parts of the Galactic Center Black Hole only overlap, causing the area of the Galactic Center Black Hole to have some high-dimensional characteristics, it is still not something Lu Yao can bear. She did not go crazy immediately because this place is not purely high-dimensional.
As for why the rest of the people were fine, Lin Xu himself was a high-dimensional creature, and Miss Qiu, Mu Xiyue, and Nanzhu were also his followers, and all had the authority to grant high-dimensional pardons.
Only Lu Yao was picked up by Miss Qiu from Xianyuan Star. Although she is also a descendant of human creation, she is not a member of the family.
"Hey, hey, wake up. How about you become a member of the clan?" Lin Xu left his seat, squatted in front of Lu Yao, waved his hand in front of Lu Yao and asked.
"Stop it." Lu Yao pushed Lin Xu's hand away and glared at him.
I'm already feeling so bad, and you're still making trouble with me.
"I'm not making trouble with you. Just tell me whether you agree or not. Everything will be fine if you agree." Lin Xu continued to ask.
"I agree, I agree, don't bother me." Lu Yao was about to push Lin Xu away when she suddenly realized that her head no longer hurt or swollen.
"Hey? What's wrong with me?"
"Okay, you are a member of the clan now." Lin Xu sat back in his seat and continued to observe the inside of the black hole outside, no longer paying attention to this little episode.
"No, how come I became a member of the clan?" Lu Yao was still a little confused.
"Just now, Lord Lin Xu wanted to take you in as a member of his family, and you agreed, so naturally you are his family, so everything is fine." Nanzhu explained for her.
"This? Is it that simple?" Lu Yao still didn't understand.
"These are golden words." Nanzhu nodded proudly, as if Lin Xu's greatness meant that she was also great.
"The way of the Tao is simple." Mu Xiyue also said lightly.
In short, Lu Yao was now looking at the bizarre scenes outside the porthole, and she no longer felt dizzy. Instead, she felt very novel.
So she simply stopped thinking about it. She had been on the pirate ship for so long, and it was only today that she became a member of the family. It was already too late.
At the same time, the Skylark, which had been sailing in the black hole for an hour, was gradually approaching the core of the galactic center black hole.
The scenery around us gradually began to change.
The originally pitch-black black hole gradually became colorful.
Of course, that was not actually the scattering of sunlight, but a strange phenomenon formed by the friction of space and time, which produced particles that were blurred.
"Wow, it's so beautiful." Nanzhu was almost leaning against the porthole, with his nose flattened on it, looking at the magnificent scenery outside.
At the same time, alarms were sounding inside the Skylark.
"The black hole's gravity is overloaded. The black hole's gravity is overloaded. Activate the anti-gravity device to calm the gravity."
"The repulsive field defense cannot be generated due to the gravitational pull, and the electromagnetic defense is broken by the particle flow."
"The ship has collided, and the damaged parts have started self-repair."
"A collision occurred? What happened?" Lin Xu asked.
"Suspected to be stellar fragments." Yinghuo replied.
"Okay, can the ship hold up?" Lin Xu asked.
"We are trying various defense methods. The protective shield has been activated. Please rest assured, master." Yinghuo replied.
"It's okay. At worst I can hide back in my portable space." Lin Xu didn't care.
Anyway, he is a high-dimensional creature and he cannot die even in the black hole at the center of the Milky Way. So what is there to be afraid of?
"Lord Lin Xu, look ahead, what is that? What place is that?" Nanzhu, who was lying on the porthole and looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window, suddenly shouted.
As the Skylark passed through a certain area, suddenly patches of white light appeared in front of it, or a light curtain of the universe scale.
All kinds of wonderful lights and shadows kept flashing in the white light. There were nebulae falling and being born again, stars constantly being born and destroyed, and even scenes of space fleet battles.
"Is this a mirage?" Lu Yao on the side guessed.
"It's a bit similar. Could it be the memory of the Milky Way?" Mu Xiyue thought with a lot of imagination.
"It's hard to say, hard to say." Lu Yao shook her head while trying to look.
After all, this scene is so rare, it's like a movie is being played with the entire universe as the screen. This opportunity is rare, so you have to hurry and watch it.
"This should be the center of the Milky Way. What will be there if we go through it?" Lin Xu muttered to himself.
"I don't know about this, but the humans back then should have traveled through time, right?" Lu Yao on the side said after thinking for a while.
"That's right, so let's go over there and see what will happen after passing through the real core of the Milky Way." Lin Xu made a decision.
So Yinghuo controlled the Skylark, like a swift in a storm, and flew through the light curtains in the wind and rain.
It has passed through the birth of stars, the extinction of nebulae, and the cosmic wars that have broken out between countless races.
Mu Xiyue suddenly rushed to the porthole, right next to Nanzhu, because she seemed to see the fairy ship attacking the rebels.
But it was just a flash, and she even wondered if she had seen it wrong.
Until the Skylark finally passed through all the light curtains.
There was only endless white light all around.
Lin Xu, who had been observing all this in a high-dimensional state, suddenly discovered that everything around the Skylark changed in an instant.
It's like switching to a different movie in an instant.
People in it cannot perceive it, but they can see it clearly in higher dimensions.
Lin Xu didn't know where this was.
But he knew.
Everything around me is different.
"Master, what's wrong with you?" Miss Qiu noticed Lin Xu's frown.
The others looked over immediately.
"We may no longer be in the Milky Way." Lin Xu was silent for a moment, but still spoke.
"Not in the Milky Way anymore? Then where is this?" Nanzhu asked puzzled.
"Let's go out and take a look, then you'll know." Lin Xu already had some guesses, but didn't say them out loud.
So Yinghuo drove the Skylark and continued to rush forward.
Finally broke out of the range of white light.
