Chapter 664: Searching for the Space Exit
The heavy element resources here are not enough for humans to complete industrial upgrades and upgrades in civilization and technology, so humans must leave, but humans still have no idea how to leave this space.

The awakener Huan said that when humans advance to the fourth level of civilization, the exit will naturally appear. But now humans have mastered the grand unified theory, but the so-called exit has not appeared.

This matter has attracted attention the moment humans mastered the grand unified theory. It also made the scientific expedition teams that are still exploring the edge of space pay attention to developments in this area. They also launched many probes in all directions of this space, but the entire space has not changed at all.

Some humans now even suspect that the awakener did not set up a proper exit.

Yue Yuan is now worrying about this all day long. He is sure and clear that the awakener "Huan" said this to him personally, but he did not tell him specifically how to activate the exit. Sometimes he still hates this kind of "you will know it later". Can't you just tell humans what conditions must be met for the exit to appear?

Although he knew this, Yue Yuan was helpless. The awakener 'Huan' disappeared right after he finished speaking, saying that he was going to participate in the war of civilizations. Even if he wanted to ask, he didn't have the chance to.

So now I can only treat this as a test.

However, if the awakener 'Huan' had no intention of playing tricks on humans, then what he said, "The exit channel will appear after reaching the fourth level of civilization" must be true. In other words, the awakener 'Huan' must have set up some kind of monitoring trigger device somewhere in this space, so that humans can trigger the command of "opening the exit channel" after meeting the conditions, but humans cannot detect it.

Then this condition is clear.

The symbol of Level IV civilization is the grand unified theory, so to reach the level of Level IV civilization, one must either master the grand unified theory at the theoretical level or demonstrate the practical application of the grand unified theory.

Now humans have already mastered the grand unified theory in theory, but the so-called exit channel has not appeared, so there is only one possibility left - application performance.

Humankind must demonstrate the grand unified theory as it should be, and this is what humans are doing now.

In the view of human scientists, applications such as warp travel, tachyon communication, force field shields, gravity bombs, and antimatter bombs are all possible, so they plan to work with weapons experts and military departments to use all these new things.

In the name of experimenting with various weapons.

At this stage, only tachyon communication has been tested, but it has not triggered the switch of "opening the exit channel". So there are two possibilities, one is that the application of tachyon communication is not counted as a trigger condition, and the other is that the application of tachyon communication is one of the trigger conditions.

No matter which one it is, humans must experiment and implement it.

The reason why humans plan to build a new warship and a new residential spaceship first is also based on this consideration.

What worries scientists the most is the discovery of types of tachyons that can be used in weapons. Humans currently have no clue about this. Astronomical-grade particle colliders have been operating and collision experiments have been ongoing for some time, but apart from this type of tachyon that has been used in communications, no other types of tachyons have been discovered.

If the conditions for opening the channel also have this application, it would be a bit difficult. Well, it's just difficult. This space is large enough, it can be regarded as a small universe, the entropy will not increase so fast, and there are still eight stars and many gas planets, so humans don't have to worry about energy shortages in the short term.

Just from the vastness of this space, humans can feel that 'Illusion' really doesn't seem to want to embarrass humans. He really does care about humans. Humans who understand this can't help but have a better impression of the awakener.

"It would be great if Huan could come back now!" "Maybe Huan has already come back. He may be hiding somewhere in this space watching over humans!"

Some humans have already expressed such sentiments, but they don't know that the awakener of their thoughts, 'Huan', can no longer come back here.

As time went by, humans made breakthroughs in applied technology. New experimental ships were successfully built, force field shields were installed, warp engines were installed, powerful star destroyers were tested in experiments, and there were also neutron killing and neutron explosion weapons.

Gravity bombs and antimatter bombs were also successful.

By now, humans have completely turned these technologies into reality, and with years of testing, the level of creation has become more and more sophisticated. It can be said that humans are now fully capable and have sufficient level to truly build a new flagship.

The completed test ship was first placed by humans in the empty starry sky with weak gravity for experiments. With Yue Yuan's order, the warp speed trial experiment of the test ship was confirmed to have begun.

"Warp Engine No. 1 and Warp Engine No. 2 are in synchronized linkage. The system is self-checking. Self-check completed!"

"The antimatter container force field stabilizes the antimatter combustion chamber and is ready! The antimatter input is being adjusted to match the corresponding positive matter input, and the parameter docking is complete. The system is ready!"

"The relative position of the test ship has been confirmed. Please confirm the destination of this experiment and the sailing time!"

“曲速引擎开始点火！10、9、8、7、6、5、4”

"Gravitational potential well detected."

"The warp bubble target parameters have been corrected, and the warp bubble has been generated."

As the experimenters operated, this huge ship, which was hundreds of kilometers in size, began to turn red in everyone's eyes. Then people saw the experimental ship turn into an elongated afterimage and quickly disappeared into the starry sky.

In the blink of an eye, conventional detectors could no longer detect the test ship. At this time, only the tachyon detector installed at the human headquarters could capture its trajectory.

Even though the experiment confirmed that the warp speed would definitely succeed, people were still filled with emotion when they actually saw the warp speed ship appear in reality. This was the first ship with warp speed function built by humans, although it was a test ship.

Its appearance means that human beings have indeed become a superluminal civilization, a Level 4 civilization. This is a qualitative leap, and the distance that used to take hundreds of years to cross can now be completed in just a few decades.

Such superluminal speed does not violate the theory of relativity, because it does not directly and violently push massive objects to superluminal speed, but rather travels through warp speed, just like the expansion of space itself superluminal speed does not violate the theory of relativity.

Of course, humans don’t really worry about whether a certain method violates the theory of relativity. If a phenomenon that violates the theory of relativity really occurs, then we can only say that the theory of relativity cannot fully describe all physical phenomena, not that this physical phenomenon is wrong.
