Chapter 1127 Inverse Cube Law
Under the attention of all civilizations, more than one hundred sub-civilization-class transport ships equipped with the Shenju civilization's gravity devices slowly sank into the four-dimensional fragments.

Following them were many scientific research ships of the Shenju civilization.

Soon, under the inquiring gazes of many civilization representatives, the Shenju civilization gave their answers.

"The situation is not optimistic. The moment the transport ship entered the four-dimensional space, other signals disappeared. The gravitational effect became discrete the moment it entered the four-dimensional space. All our gravitational sensing equipment failed, but we also obtained some valuable information. Of course, the specific information still needs to be detected."

Then continue.

Since they have decided to explore, the civilizations do not waste time and simply continue to increase their investment and carry out scientific experimental detection of four-dimensional space fragments.

After this happened four or five times, the Shenju civilization finally gave a definite result.

The probes and transport ships that entered the four-dimensional space were indeed disintegrated in an instant. This is why the equipment and probes lost contact.

As for how they were decomposed, it is unknown, because the Shenju civilization only indirectly judged what happened inside based on the feedback of gravitational effect information.

Thanks to the property that gravity runs through all dimensions, otherwise we would not be able to obtain the corresponding information.

Through repeated experiments and by piecing together bits and pieces of information, the Shenju civilization actually found the physical laws of this four-dimensional space.

There is only one thing, that is, the force of gravity is inversely proportional to the cube of the distance.

In the face of data, one has to believe it even if he or she doesn't want to. Many level six civilizations have modified their theories of high-dimensional space for this reason.

This information also reveals why objects are broken down in four-dimensional space.

Because the physical laws of force have changed.

As we all know, in three-dimensional space, gravity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance, which is the inverse square law.

This law describes that the strength of an effect from an object or particle decreases linearly with the square of the distance.

It constitutes the mechanical relationships of all structures in the universe, from galaxies to microscopic particles.

This is the case with the Coulomb force between electric charges, which also satisfies the inverse square law.

So what does the inverse cube of gravity mean in four-dimensional space? It means that the gravitational effect is discretized into the fourth dimension, and the attenuation becomes more serious as the distance increases.

So what will happen when an object that was originally under the rules of three-dimensional space enters the rules of four-dimensional space?
Previous experimental results have already told all civilizations the answer.

Because of the change in rules, the force binding the object's particles will instantly change from the inverse quadratic law to the inverse cubic law, and the object will undergo a phase transition from one stable state to another.

When gravity is differentiated into the fourth dimension, the original three-dimensional object will instantly expand according to the inverse cubic law. The original connection between particles disappears in an instant, and it becomes matter under another rule.

This change manifests itself at the microscopic particle level as all microscopic dimensions that were originally in a curled up state are completely expanded to the macroscopic level, and in an instant there is an extra dimension of matter. To be precise, it is not an extra dimension, after all, the object itself is composed of microscopic particles, and microscopic particles themselves have curled up dimensions, so it is more accurate to say that the curled up dimension of the object is forcibly expanded.

In this process, since the information of the three-dimensional object has no protection, its three-dimensional macroscopic structure will inevitably be destroyed. This is what the Shenju civilization means by the decomposition of the object.

But in fact, it is not decomposed, but a phase change.

It turned into matter under the rules of four-dimensional space that three-dimensional creatures have never seen. Although this process cannot be seen with one's own eyes, scientific calculations have told all civilizations the answer.

After entering the fourth dimension, the three-dimensional object will instantly release a curled up dimension. It will be like infinite bubbles rolling up. The object will expand instantly like bubbles and expand towards the fourth spatial dimension. In this process, the three-dimensional information of the three-dimensional object will lose its clear pixels and become gray and blurred.

The clear pixels it lost were filled by the information originally curled up in the microscopic dimension. It lost the information of this curled up dimension and naturally became blurred.

A more vivid and inaccurate understanding is that its pixels have become lower.

According to this dimensional theory, the change of this pixel is the same whether viewed from the original three dimensions or from the other three dimensions.

If we assume that the original three-dimensional universe has three dimensions of length, width and height, and the fourth dimension is represented by "depth", then the information of the length, width and height of an object and the information of its length, width, depth, depth, width, height and any other dimensional perspective will be blurry and have extremely low-quality pixels.

The object seen from the macroscopic three-dimensional time is the projection of this object in three dimensions.

But if you observe it from the perspective of the four macroscopic dimensions of four-dimensional space, then it will be a complete and clear four-dimensional macroscopic object.

Obviously, the consciousness born from three-dimensional objects cannot adapt to the fourth dimension, because the information of the birth consciousness itself has been changed in the four-dimensional space and is no longer the same information. The same is true for objects. After entering the fourth dimension, its basic information is forcibly changed.

Such a result is difficult for many civilizations to accept. They try hard to accept it and then modify their own theories of high-dimensional space. At the same time, they still firmly believe that there will be a way for three-dimensional objects to safely enter four-dimensional space.

So is it possible to roll the information of the fourth macroscopic dimension back to the microscopic dimension? Of course it is possible, that is great, because that is the technology of unfolding and rolling back the microscopic dimension.

This technology is indeed feasible, otherwise there would be no electronic warships.

It seems that the Reapers have this technology, and their macro-electronic cockpit is probably built in this way, but even if they master this technology, it must be extremely difficult to operate it.

Because all civilizations of the Great Voyage Organization know that the Reaper's macro-electronic cockpit was built according to the instructions in the ruins of the seventh-level civilization, and the Reaper's technology for dimensional expansion and retraction can only achieve a microscopic particle at best.

It is nothing but a pipe dream to ensure that an entire intelligent life or an entire warship can be rolled back to the macroscopic dimension as it was after entering the four-dimensional space.

That would require accuracy down to every microscopic particle, and a one-to-one correspondence with all expanded fourth spatial dimensions.

A level six civilization that possesses special technologies in this area might be able to get a glimpse of the situation, but for an ordinary level six civilization, it is an unreachable area.

Then there is only one way to safely enter the four-dimensional space, which is to use some technological means to firmly lock one's three-dimensional structure information so that the inverse cubic law of four-dimensional space cannot be shaken.

Obviously, this already involves technologies that counteract the changing laws of physics.

The level six civilization of the Great Voyage Organization obviously does not have this ability. After all, that thing looks like level seven civilization technology.

It can be seen that the four-dimensional fragments here may really be the result of a dimensional attack. I don’t know how many years ago, an unknown seventh-level civilization launched this unheard-of attack here for some unknown reason.

The civilizations of the Great Voyage Organization digested the information from the detection conclusions, as well as their own speculations about the powerful cognition of the seventh-level civilization.

In the end, everyone could only quietly give up on further exploration and accept the plan of passing through the four-dimensional space fragments. There was no other way. Whoever entered such a four-dimensional space fragment would die. No civilization dared to rush in rashly when they knew that the unmanned detection equipment had lost contact and they knew they would die.
