I am immortal with scientific thinking

Time moves forward.

Not long after the old detective left, a group of people in police uniforms quietly blocked the police station and took out one of the prisoners.

beep--

Ignite and start.

Under the protection of several black cars, a car drove away silently.

"Don't look at it. This vehicle is built with the most advanced technology since the third season. No matter whether it is the Barrett, the anti-material heavy sniper rifle, the M200 Intervenor or other top sniper rifles, they can't penetrate the defense of this vehicle."

Fang Changqing sat aside, watching Lin Chen carefully observing the inky car window, and couldn't help but smile.

"What about rocket launchers and other heavy artillery weapons? Can this car withstand them?" Lin Chen asked with his eyes moving.

"Ordinary mortars are fine, but heavy artillery is not. But don't worry, such heavy weapons are unlikely to appear in the strictly controlled main urban area. Even if by some chance, this car is directly blown up by heavy weapons, we are not without ways to save our lives." Fang Changqing said with a smile.

"Oh? Right now, apart from this car, we seem to have no other defense. Even so, we can survive the head-on bombardment of heavy weapons. Could it be that the mentor possesses supernatural things related to space teleportation?" Lin Chen said with hints of something.

"Hmm?" Fang Changqing paused with his old hand, and looked at Lin Chen with an old face. He looked at him carefully for a while, then smiled with interest, "Why do you think it's not black technology but something supernatural?"

"I am a doctor after all, and I have some idea of ​​how far human civilization has developed. At least under heavy artillery bombardment, a few ordinary people who are powerless can survive the explosion. At least with our level of civilization, we should not be able to achieve this. Of course, there should be a certain probability. However, the incident of the pseudo-human makes me tend to the former point. The Federation should have supernatural powers." Lin Chen analyzed lightly.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Fang Changqing asked.

"It's very simple. Your reaction speed to the fake human incident was really... too fast." Lin Chen analyzed, "You didn't question it, and you didn't need clear evidence. You just confirmed that this incident might exist, and then you mobilized the force without hesitation. This is very wrong."

"As we all know, the bigger the organization, the stricter the rules and regulations, and the slower the response speed, because a small move affects the entire body, and every transfer has to involve all aspects, and it is definitely not something that can be arranged so quickly."

"But it hasn't even been a night since the incident happened, and the organization not only arranged for people to rescue me and conduct an autopsy on the fake person, but also used it as bait to lure out the real person behind them. The speed of their reaction is really too fast, which shows that the organization has been prepared for this kind of thing for a long time."

"But fake humans can easily replace humans, and the harm to our human society is too great. If the top leaders had known about this long ago, they should have wiped out their race at all costs. Even if they couldn't do it completely, since they had won, they would definitely find a way to deal with it. It would be impossible to let them infiltrate the top universities and institutions of civilization and kill people."

"The top leaders didn't seem to know about the fake people before, but there were corresponding agencies to deal with them, and they were able to respond to such incidents at a very fast speed. So based on all the above, there is only one explanation, that is, the fake people incident had not occurred in society before, but other similar incidents occurred."

"This type of event is likely to occur in the near future, and it is contrary to our common understanding, so that we, the overlords of Blue Star, can feel like we are facing a formidable enemy. So there is only one explanation, and that is a supernatural event that is beyond human common understanding!"

"It seems that your thinking is still as good as before!" Fang Changqing couldn't help but sigh after hearing this analysis, "Originally, I planned to tell you about this after you have learned everything under me."

"But who knew that plans could not keep up with changes. When Sumu returned home last month, he encountered a supernatural incident and was forced to get involved. After escaping, he naturally joined us."

"Originally, according to him, he didn't want to tell you about this kind of thing, so that you could just be a researcher in peace. After all, the more you know, the more dangerous it is. But who would have thought that you would be involved in a supernatural incident and even almost die in it."

"This kid must be extremely regretful now, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his life to volunteer to solve this incident. It seems that he is really angry. You kid, you are really his weak spot!"

Of course, we were one in our previous life, and we have been brothers for twenty years in this life. How can this feeling be expressed in words?
"When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs be safe? I believe this fake human incident is not the beginning, and it is definitely not the end." Lin Chen smiled slightly and said, "So instead of dying miserably in such a supernatural incident without knowing it one day, it is better to take the initiative to get involved in danger. Even if you have to die, at least you have to die with understanding."

"That's right... We old guys have always been worried that if we make the disaster public, it will bring death and fear to the people, leading to unimaginable consequences. That's why we have been hesitant. But this is a disaster for all mankind. No matter who we are, we will have to face it one day. So instead of hiding it, it's better to make it public and believe in the power of the people. But unfortunately..."

Having said that, Fang Changqing sighed lightly, but did not continue.

Then he took out a document from his bag with the words "Top Secret File" written on it in large letters.

Fang Changqing opened the package, handed it over, and said:
"The truth you want to know is in there. There are too many specific documents and reports for me to carry with me. This is a brief summary. You can take a look. Of course, remember to keep it confidential."

Lin Chen responded, took the file report and started reading it.

The first document is "Research Report on Dimensionless Numbers in Nature", which focuses on an important dimensionless number in physics, the "fine structure constant".

The calculation formula is α. Generally speaking, 1/α≈137 (more roughly) is a fixed constant, which is stipulated by the laws of physics.

But since the establishment of the Human Federation, every measurement in the laboratory has found that this constant has changed.

There are always one or two parameters that have undergone subtle changes, so the fine structure constant fluctuates downward around the original measured value and constantly tends to zero!
This incident has brought many insiders to the brink of collapse, because their experimental data are different every time!

In this case, how can we conduct scientific experiments?
The results of each collision at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in Western Europe are different, and the probability function of the de Broglie wave has also undergone a series of subtle changes. Even previous experimental data cannot be repeated, and the underlying physical foundation has become less reliable.

In order to cover up this fact, the federal department of human civilization is forcing the closure of physics laboratories, but even so, more and more scientists have more or less learned the truth and are in a state of worldview collapse.

After all, physical constants are the foundation of the entire universe. If they can be changed at will, it will mean the collapse of the world. The civilization created by human beings according to the original cosmic constants will be annihilated at any time like bubbles on the ocean of truth.

What is even more frightening is that after twenty years of observation and discussions and speculations by academicians of human civilization, the more people know the truth, the greater the overall level of suspicion of humanity, and the easier it is for the entire world to fall from the rules of materialism to the terrifying rules of idealism!

Therefore, this disaster is collectively referred to as "Idealistic Invasion" by the upper echelons of human civilization. That is, the materialistic rules of the contemporary universe are being changed by indescribable things!
The second piece of information was that five years ago, in a university laboratory at Donghua University, a researcher suddenly discovered that the resolution of the scanning tunneling microscope had suddenly dropped a lot.

The reason for this naturally involves the microscopic level. A considerable number of scientific researchers have found that the diffraction phenomenon of electrons has become somewhat puzzling, which is related to the change in the probability density of matter waves.

The third piece of information is that in biology, the accuracy of various methods of gene sequencing has been greatly reduced... Although it is not to the point where it cannot be used, some methods are no longer applicable.

The fourth piece of information involves a high-energy particle accelerator that the Federation of Human Civilization spent ten years building with the power of the entire planet. An unexpected change occurred and it can no longer be put into use.

The fifth piece of information, according to the display of outer space exploration instruments of major countries in the world, stars within 1000 light years outside the solar system have undergone unknown changes and are aging rapidly... As each piece of information passed, Lin Chen's mood became heavier. The subtle changes in the laws of physics not only affected all aspects of cutting-edge science, but also continuously changed the environment in which human civilization survived.

Countless scientists have made many speculations about this. Some suspect that the universe has expanded to its extreme and is now shrinking. Countless parallel space-time lines are converging into one, which is why the phenomenon of the fine structure constant returning to zero occurs.

Some people also suspect that it is another multiverse that is different from their current universe and overlaps with them for unknown reasons, so the entire universe is resisting fusion.

Some people also suspect that their universe is originally a virtual universe, just like the world simulated in a computer, like the story in a game, and the controller behind it, the so-called God, is currently reconstructing it...

But no matter which one it is, all the words are describing the same fact...

The building will collapse!
"So do you understand? Human civilization seems to be thriving and flourishing, but in fact it has reached the brink of destruction..."

Fang Changqing sighed softly.

This old man, who always appeared wise, elegant, and confident in public, as if all difficulties could be overcome, showed a hint of fatigue on his face at this moment.

"Then what are our current responses?" Lin Chen closed the document and asked.

Fang Changqing was silent for a moment before saying:
“…There is no way.”

"That's good... huh?!" Lin Chen was about to say something, but after hearing what the other party said clearly, he frowned and looked at Fang Changqing.

"Yes, you heard it right." The wise old man showed a hint of helplessness on his face at this moment, "Human civilization has no way to deal with this disaster."

"It involves changes in the fine structure constant and a disaster across the entire universe. According to the Kardashev civilization theory, human civilization must at least reach level three and achieve at least three major breakthroughs in theory before it has a certain chance of surviving this disaster. In other words, it must be able to artificially create a small universe to protect the survival of civilization..."

Fang Changqing's tone was heavy.

"But humans simply don't have the time to reach the third-level civilization. Not to mention that with the invasion of idealism, the microscopic world is being blocked. Even if we use the power of the world to build the Eurasian Continent Accelerator, we still can't break through the blockade, whether it is due to the influence of different universes or the interference of unknown things."

"As long as we cannot open up the microscopic world, humans will have no way to further observe the deeper particles that make up this universe, and technology will not be able to make further progress on the existing basis."

"The invasion of idealism is like the sophon in a science fiction novel. It has blocked the possibility of further development of our existing science and also blocked the future of our human race."

"If that's the case, then doesn't it mean that we have no chance of escape and can only perish along with the universe?!" Hearing this, Lin Chen frowned deeply.

He naturally knew what the truth of this world was.

The so-called universe returning to zero is actually in chaos. This world with imbalanced yin and yang is heading towards destruction.

Whether it is him, Lin Tianhang, or those who have invested in this world, they must transcend it before this world is completely destroyed, otherwise they will sink along with this world.

Therefore, the theme of this world is transcendence, not fighting.

But the question is, how can we transcend it?

Or in other words, how to escape from here before the world is completely destroyed?

At least judging from the current situation in his technological world, Lin Chen has not found a good solution.

"Yes, if we deduce it according to common sense and logic, the demise of human civilization seems to have become a fact, but the probability is only infinite, which does not mean... absolute." At this moment, Fang Changqing's tone was inexplicably firm, "As long as it is not an absolute thing, then no matter how small the probability is, it is possible to happen!"

"With the current means of our human civilization, we do not have a way to survive the disaster. The blockade of the microscopic world also means that we cannot make progress in theory. But this does not mean that our science cannot be used!"

"Teacher, what you mean is..." Lin Chen seemed to have figured something out, "Although we can't see the essence, we can summarize and apply it?"

"That's right. Science is an orderly knowledge system based on testable explanations and predictions of the form and organization of objective things. It is knowledge that has been systematized and formalized." Fang Changqing said solemnly, "In other words, science is the process of unifying objective knowledge and subjective cognition."

"For example, the ancients learned to use fire. They did not know the principle of flame combustion, nor its essence, but through a series of summaries, they knew how flames were born and how to use them, which enabled humans to move from being beasts that ate raw meat to civilization."

"For example, in modern times, we have observed the principles of the steam engine. Even though we don't know the energy conversion equations inside it, and we don't know what the microscopic world is like, it doesn't prevent us from opening the steam age, getting rid of tens of thousands of years of farming, and making humans qualified to change this planet."

"For example, today, we have no idea about the interior of the atomic nucleus, the truth of the energy desert theory, and what happens inside nuclear fusion... But we can summarize and apply these phenomena and knowledge to start our own civilization!"

Having said that, Fang Changqing looked at Lin Chen with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice:
“Science is the process of summarizing observed phenomena into a known system for systematic application.”

"We really can't observe the microscopic world right now, and existing theories can't support us in moving towards a more advanced civilization. But with the invasion of idealism, a large number of phenomena that were originally impossible to occur in reality have frequently appeared in this world."

"If we can summarize these so-called supernatural events, the unknown and mysterious things in them, into a knowledge system that can be tested, systematic and formulaic, then we can use this system to feed back to our civilization and pursue the possibility of transcendence!"

"Science is never static. It is a method and way of thinking to explore the universe and the world. Different universes can develop into different civilizations. So as long as it can be used properly, we will not perish together because of the changes in the current universe!"

"So, teachers, that's why you are so keen on exploring supernatural events, just to organize these mysteries into a system, and then integrate them into our science for our use?" Lin Chen asked.

"Yes, but this will take time, and what we lack most now is time. Because no one knows to what extent the mystery must be summarized before civilization can be upgraded..." Fang Changqing was silent for a moment and looked out the window, "So whether it is individuals, races, or our civilization, we are now... fighting for it."

As he was speaking, the car had already stopped in front of an inconspicuous building. (End of this chapter)
