I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 1270 The Fire Seed Project
"We will first nurture the spark, which is the metal you brought back, and let it grow to the right size."

"Then, we will throw the flames into the bottom of the abyss, so that the flames can burn in other worlds."

"Next, we will control the flames to make them burn at a suitable temperature that can stop the power of the abyss."

"Finally, seal the abyss with these flames that rise from the bottom of the abyss."

……

Inside the conference room, the specialist sent to explain Project Fire introduced every detail of the plan, while Lao Quan sat next to Lu Youqi and Martin, keeping them company.

"I have a question: how do we send the flames to the bottom of the abyss?" Lu Youqi asked, raising his hand.

"Of course we'll send someone to deliver it," the guide replied.

“The journey to the bottom of the abyss is not something anyone can accomplish,” Lu You said with concern.

"You don't need to worry about that. We have already foreseen the outcome. The flames will definitely be sent to the bottom of the abyss."

Another prophecy...

Lu nodded.

"Have you tested it? Can it really block the power of the abyss?"

"Of course, if you need to see the experimental results, we can show them to you."

"Why don't you demonstrate it..." Lu Youqi was still a little uneasy.

Upon hearing Lu Qi's request, the guide quickly made arrangements, and soon someone delivered the samples.

Looking at the "square" on the tray, Lu Qi asked hesitantly, "Why did it turn out like this?"

"This is the most stable structure we've tested."

As Lu listened, he glanced at Martin.

Martin understood immediately and picked up the strange cube.

After the cube danced in the glass jar for a while, Martin nodded and placed it back on the tray.

"It does indeed have the ability to hinder the power of the abyss. My power will be reflected and eliminated within it, similar to the principle of wave cancellation..."

"Where did that energy go?" Lu Youqi pressed.

Energy does not disappear into nothingness; it is only transferred or transformed.

“It’s become space,” Martin explained calmly. “Like the Big Bang, the space inside the cube is expanding…”

At this point, the guide explained, "When electrons and positrons meet and annihilate, their charges and masses cancel each other out, transforming into photons with no charge and no rest mass. The abyssal forces of electrons and positrons will transform into pure space particles after canceling each other out."

"So the abyss is actually a space with 'positive' and 'negative' poles?" Lu You asked.

"Your understanding is correct. The abyss is space, but it is not just a simple space. It is an alienated space with polarity, which is why so many strange and bizarre things are created within it."

"Where does the polarity of the abyss come from? Have you done any research on this?" Lu Youqi's curiosity was piqued, and he followed the guide's lead to ask.

The guide shook his head regretfully: "We don't know yet. Only you, who have been to the starting point of the abyss, could know. But what is certain is that the abyss must have originated from some kind of 'collision,' just like how two photons collide and produce a pair of positive and negative electrons. The abyss must have originated from a nonpolar space collision."

“With the power of the abyss, we can now perfectly reproduce the Brett-Wyler process and observe electron pairs formed by photon collisions. It is using this principle that we have calculated that the cube is the most suitable barrier structure.”

"It's not a sphere, because spheres are too stable, and curved surfaces aren't suitable for reflection... Nor is it a cuboid, because cuboids are asymmetrical and can't keep the two polarities at the same level. We tested many shapes, and only the cube perfectly realized our vision."

"The prophecy only pointed us in a vague direction; we have to figure out these details ourselves, but it's all worth it..."

As the guide spoke, he pointed to the cubes on the tray. "Although it's about making your wishes come true, you still need a clear enough imagination. This requires us to have an extremely clear understanding of what we are doing, and we can't be careless at all."

"The transformative power of the spark is a double-edged sword. Its transformation allows us to create things we imagine, but at the same time, it also makes it impossible for us to control it precisely. This unrestrained transformation can destroy the stability of the structure."

"Therefore, in order to make the structure more stable, we distorted its ability to change shape during its manufacturing process, so that it could maintain its cube structure even when it was split into tiny particles, and still exist in the form of a cube..."

"Everything is in accordance with the prophecy, and we are on the right track."

Listening to the guide's words, Lu You felt a deep sense of admiration. Humanity is always fighting against the abyss with all its might, no matter which world it is in.

Lu Qi turned his head and looked at Lao Quan, who nodded back at him.

For some reason, Lu Qiben's previously anxious heart immediately relaxed.

"Let's just proceed as planned."

He offered his opinion.

"I hope this project can be successfully completed."

The guide nodded: "We need to keep the fire going for a while longer, so we can't rescue your companions for the time being."

"How long will it take?" Lu You asked with concern.

"It's hard to estimate exactly when we'll have cultivated enough flames," the guide replied sincerely.

"Hopefully it won't be too long."

"We will do our best..."

……

Fire is burning in places unseen.

For some time afterward, Lao Quan stayed with the two of them, taking meticulous care of their daily lives. He was more like a "housekeeper" than a "friend".

"Old Quan, why do you always wear those sunglasses?"

“My eyes aren’t pretty,” Lao Quan replied calmly.

"Oh... Lao Quan, thank you for everything during this time. We've just arrived in this world and don't know anyone. It's good that you're here."

"No need to thank me, it was all arranged by the World Government, I was just doing my job... Besides, aren't we friends?"

Speaking of "friends," Lu Youqi felt a warmth in his heart.

From the moment he entered the abyss, he relied on all sorts of friends.

Mo Ling, Little Elf, Martin... and now Lao Quan, it is thanks to these friends that he has been able to get up from his falls time and time again and stand back on the road to his ideals.

Now, as long as Project Fire can be successfully completed, his journey can end, and he can turn around and thank the friends who helped him.

"Martin, if the Abyss were sealed off, where would you go?" he asked Martin beside him.

Martin didn't answer. The tentacles in the kimchi jar stretched and rolled up a few pieces of kimchi.

"Haven't you made up your mind yet?" Lu Youqi smiled and said, "Cheer up, don't always look so bitter and resentful."

Martin still didn't answer; the hem of his clothes fluttered slightly, as if several identical figures overlapped.
