With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 466 Information Jet!

boom! ! !
After losing the constraints of the energy channel, the violence of the vacuum zero-point energy far exceeded Chen Fan's imagination.

It shot out from the interior of the starship and surged in all directions like a raging wave.

Blocked by the light golden starship barrier, these azure energy torrents were like a huge spider web, rapidly spreading around along the light golden barrier.

Crack! Crack! !

The dark blue electric arc extended rapidly along the energy torrent, and violent ripples suddenly appeared on the light golden barrier.

Every beat of the energy torrent would cause this solid barrier to shake violently. Obviously, for this starship shield, the direct impact of vacuum zero-point energy was also a difficult test.

The radiation intensity around the starship suddenly increased, and the energy density in space also began to rise sharply.

This place has become a real forbidden zone for life!

Whether it is carbon-based life or silicon-based life, facing this pure vacuum zero-point energy, the only fate is to turn into ashes! !

In the blink of an eye, the entire investigator starship was covered by a layer of energy film with a blue sheen! !
These vacuum zero-point energies, which contain violent power, are not stable.

Scattered azure light spots slowly dissipated from the edge of the energy torrent, and then the unique azure blue contained in the light spots dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally disappeared into the empty vacuum around it.

The invisible and intangible vacuum in daily life is like a dry porous stone, almost greedily absorbing the energy that belongs to it.

On the other side, just like in the vacuum, looking at the extremely bright scene in front of him, Chen Fan’s consciousness suddenly felt a hunger deep in his bones.

This sudden feeling of hunger was very strong. It was the first time he had felt this way since his consciousness took human form.

Along with the feeling of hunger, there is also an incomparable feeling of emptiness!
His body was empty, and at this moment, his consciousness was craving for the azure energy torrent before him! !

It was as if... the azure energy torrent before my eyes was some kind of nectar!
Chen Fan, who was well aware of the dangers of vacuum zero-point energy, looked at the surging energy torrent with fear.

He wanted to stay away from the vacuum zero-point energy, but his body unconsciously made a swallowing motion.

Not only that, under the influence of the piercing hunger, the originally clear thoughts gradually became chaotic.

Driven by instinct, Chen Fan's mind moved, and his consciousness slowly moved forward. He raised his hand and gently touched the energy torrent that was still scattering outwards.

Swish! ! !
The moment the two sides came into contact, Chen Fan's body trembled violently, and his originally chaotic thoughts instantly became clear.

Looking at the azure energy torrent so close, Chen Fan subconsciously let out a cry of fear:

"Fuck...fuck?"

The panic in the shouts quickly dissipated, and was replaced by surprise - Chen Fan soon discovered that the azure torrents did not cause him any harm.

Quite the opposite.

As a tingling sensation came from the contact between his fingertips and the energy torrent and quickly spread to his whole body, the fatigue and hunger that had penetrated deep into his bones disappeared in the blink of an eye, and was replaced by a sense of satisfaction similar to that of having a full meal and drink!
"This……"

Chen Fan subconsciously hooked his fingers, causing the scattered torrent to turn slightly.

From the perspective of Redstone and others, the azure torrent on the left side of the starship seemed to be disturbed by some unknown force, splitting into a small section of thin branches and inexplicably disappearing into the dark space.

"How can you still do this..."

Chen Fan murmured in a low voice, his eyes full of surprise.

If the consciousness body can directly absorb vacuum zero-point energy to make up for the deficit in the body...

According to this, if he carries a vacuum zero-point energy reactor with him in the future, won't he never be exhausted?
I made a blue buff!
Unfortunately, the good times don't last long.

Just as Chen Fan was immersed in his imagination, a strong feeling of swelling rose from within his consciousness, rudely interrupting his thoughts.

No, it's not just a feeling!
Looking at his expanding arms and body, Chen Fan's expression suddenly changed:
"Fuck!!"

He let out a scream and hastily pulled his hand away, trying to move away from the azure torrent that had already weakened significantly.

but……

Even though he pulled his hand away, there were still tiny spots of azure light that broke away from the azure torrent in front of him and floated towards him, as if attracted by some unknown attraction.

Corresponding to this is the increasing feeling of swelling within the body of consciousness.

As the azure light spots continued to pour into the consciousness body, the swelling feeling became stronger and stronger, and eventually gradually evolved into a faint throbbing pain!

“I’m going to die, I’m going to die…”

Chen Fan looked at his arm with horror as it swelled and emitted a dazzling light.

He was anxious and turned his head sharply to scan the surrounding environment.

We must find a way to consume this energy, otherwise...

Sooner or later he will be blown up by this pure vacuum zero-point energy!!!
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Chen Fan's attention was drawn to the light stone floor tiles under the starship.

The intensity of vacuum zero-point energy far exceeds that of activated dark matter.

It is not difficult to imagine that the stimulation it has on the light stone far exceeds the many previous energy shocks.

Reality does.

Only a few seconds had passed since the vacuum zero-point energy leaked, but an extremely violent reaction had already occurred on the base of the incubation tower directly below the starship - hundreds of light stone floor tiles were lighting up with an extremely dazzling white fluorescence!

From the perspective of the conscious being, along with the dazzling light, complex and irregular ripples spread out from the light stone tiles.

Just like the many omens before tsunamis and storms, these irregularly moving information flows also foreshadow the upcoming devastating storm!

That's it! !

In a flash, Chen Fan had made a decision - based on his current experience, manipulating the flow of information consumes the most energy, and only in this way can he release the excessive amount of vacuum zero-point energy that he had absorbed!

Not only that.

While Chen Fan sped up and rushed towards the pedestal below, he cast his gaze towards the giant scorpion larva that was "looking at him affectionately".

Private Marseille, giant scorpion sauce.

In order not to waste these light stones that were about to be detonated by the vacuum zero-point energy, he could only "recycle" the information flow generated by the light stones.

Correspondingly, it is a good opportunity to test out many of the previous speculations about the properties of the information barrier, and also to clear some obstacles for the support fleet.

Chen Fan silently cast an apologetic look at the giant scorpion larva, which was born not long ago and was basically a blank sheet of paper.

next second.

In the extremely powerful light, the many light stones on the base completely reached the point of collapse.

The big explosion begins!!
……

boom! boom! boom!
The giant pieces of light stones embedded in the base suddenly broke apart, and the huge flow of information contained in them gushed out in a violent manner!

Since the explosion of the light stone this time was an accident, the degree of explosion of each light spot was not uniform - the light stone close to the starship would naturally explode more thoroughly.

Because of this, compared with the carefully calculated artificial detonation, this light stone explosion is bound to have the defect of incomplete release of information flow.

In other words, the information flow impact generated by unit volume of light stone is much smaller.

But even so, with the huge base of hundreds of light stones exploding together, this insignificant defect was quickly made up for!
As the explosion of the light stone reached its peak, a huge information storm suddenly took shape! !
In the center of the storm, a humanoid consciousness with crystal light shining all over its body stood quietly in it.

Just as the information storm was about to spread indiscriminately in all directions, a strange wave rippled out from within the humanoid consciousness body.

Wow! ! !
The originally violent information storm suddenly stopped when it touched this strange wave!
The next moment!

This irregular and violent flow of information seemed to be driven by some unknown force, slowly rotating around the humanoid consciousness body in the center!

At first glance, it looks like a typhoon slowly forming!

Chen Fan’s consciousness body located in the center is actually the eye of the typhoon!
From another perspective, it was more like a huge circular particle accelerator - the originally chaotic information flow constantly corrected its direction of advance, and continued to rotate and accelerate under the impetus of Chen Fan! !

This is not over yet!

In the "eye of the typhoon", Chen Fan looked at the violent information flow around him with a somewhat ferocious expression. The internal information circuit of the incubation tower that he had previously described appeared clearly in his mind.

As the faint strange fluctuations continued to be released, ingenious information loops appeared above the acceleration loop.

Speed ​​up, slow down, accumulate power, or release...

Each information circuit has a completely different function.

These ingeniously conceived information loops quickly formed a huge "formation"!
The only function of this "formation" is to transform the information flow that has been accelerated to the extreme into a sharp arrow, shooting it straight at the target not far away!

Being in the acceleration center, Chen Fan closed his eyes tightly, trying his best to maintain the existence of those information circuits - this was not an easy task. Inside the incubation tower, the structure of almost every information circuit was different. Roughly speaking, there were at least hundreds of different information circuits.

Maintaining hundreds of information circuits by himself, this operation alone almost exhausted all of Chen Fan's energy!
Not to mention maintaining the continuous operation of the information flow acceleration loop!
Of course, the benefits of such a massive project are also obvious - in just a few seconds, the bloating feeling caused by absorbing too much vacuum zero-point energy has dissipated, and the swollen arms and body have gradually returned to normal.

Even... in just a few seconds, Chen Fan felt a slight sense of weakness again!
The vacuum zero-point energy he had previously absorbed only allowed him to last for a few seconds at this level of consumption! !

"Grass……"

Feeling the extremely slight dizziness, Chen Fan's eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but whispered to himself: "What do you mean by a real man in three seconds..."

Although he felt that the violent information flow around him was still accelerating, Chen Fan, who had experienced exhaustion once, did not continue to be stubborn, but directly guided the violent information flow towards the designated information loop entrance.

As the violent information flow left the acceleration loop, Chen Fan breathed a long sigh of relief. With a thought, the most energy-consuming acceleration loop gradually dissipated.

He raised his head and looked at the many carefully crafted information circuits directly above him.

From the perspective of the conscious being, this violent flow of information is like a long dragon rushing into a maze, constantly adjusting itself in the process of circling forward, and finally turning into a "high-pressure water stream".

boom! ! !
Under Chen Fan's gaze, this stream of information, which had been compressed time and again, shot out from the preset "muzzle" like a sharp arrow, and shot extremely accurately at the giant scorpion larvae that was staring at him in a daze!
The high-voltage information flow was like a cannonball, rapidly passing by the investigator starship nearby and directly hitting the information barrier around the giant scorpion's body!

Compared with the previous scattered information storm, the intensity of the highly condensed information jet with various amplification effects has increased by several orders of magnitude!
The moment the two came into contact, the eggshell-like information barrier instantly experienced a violent deformation effect!!

……

Inside the investigator starship.

Looking at the gradually shifting azure energy torrent outside the porthole, the solemn expression on Wang Jing's face became more and more intense.

After eliminating all possible interference, although Chen Fan has not yet woken up, she has already got the answer she wanted.

"Sure enough, he can absorb vacuum zero-point energy..." Wang Jing murmured in a low voice: "In this case, can he still be considered a carbon-based life form..."

In the cockpit, Hongshi was also shocked by the scene before him.

As a Level III investigator, Redstone is naturally very clear about the status of vacuum zero-point energy - it is not only the cornerstone of many cosmic bubbles, but also the cornerstone of the entire hyperspace membrane. In the entire pan-universe, there are only dozens of civilizations that can independently extract and use this pure energy from the Dirac Sea.

But now, before her eyes, a tiny carbon-based creature was able to absorb and utilize this highest level of energy...

If this word gets out, I'm afraid the entire human alliance's advanced civilization will be shaken!

"Hong, Lord Hongshi?"

Gao Yuan's stuttering voice suddenly came from behind: "Wang, Academician Wang?"

"Why do I feel that... the state of those light stones seems to be a little bit off..."

Hongshi and Wang Jing, who were lost in thought, came back to their senses at the same time.

The two of them looked at the information entropy fluctuation monitoring instrument at the same time.

The originally relatively gentle fluctuation curve, at this moment, was like riding an elevator, rushing towards North Korea's red dangerous value without any hesitation or pause! !

"…Information Storm!"

Wang Jing's pupils slightly dilated, and her originally hoarse voice suddenly became sharp: "Quick! High-dimensional jump!"

"Leave this area immediately..."

The moment the words fell, the dim space outside the porthole seemed to be affected by something, and a faint water-like ripple appeared.

The ripples were fleeting and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

【warn! ! 】

【High-intensity information disturbance detected!!!】

The holographic interface directly above the main console turned blood red in the blink of an eye, and a piercing warning sounded!
Immediately afterwards, a strong feeling of dizziness arose in the minds of Redstone and the other two!

"Come, it's too late..." Isa hunched over, holding her head tightly with both hands, murmuring in pain.

Under the wide black hood, the faint blue light in her mechanical left eye began to flicker rapidly, as if it was affected by some unknown factor.

Not only that!

Following the abnormality of the mechanical left eye, the holographic interface directly above the main console also began to flicker!
At this moment, the intensity of the information disturbance near the starship directly approached the core area of ​​the projection of the Varela Star Forest! !

Compared with Isa and Gao Yuan, Hongshi's condition is obviously better - she was originally a crystal life form, and she has a powerful consciousness far superior to that of carbon-based creatures. Correspondingly, her ability to carry information disturbances is also stronger.

Her face showed pain, her white teeth were tightly biting on her bright red lips, and blood with a fishy smell seeped out from the wound and flowed into her nasal cavity through her mouth.

Even though it was so painful, she still raised her head with difficulty and looked towards the end of the water ripple that had disappeared outside the porthole.

Giant scorpion larvae.

The target of the water wave is the giant scorpion larvae!!

Around the giant scorpion larva, a transparent film that looked like a soap bubble and was formed by countless strange ripples slowly emerged. As if it had been hit by some powerful impact, the spherical film instantly sank and its overall shape also changed dramatically.

Inside the film, the black light on the surface of the giant scorpion larva suddenly intensified, and the frequency of flashing also climbed to a new high.

It curled up its long scorpion tail, opened its ferocious mouthparts, and let out silent roars.

next second.

Snapped!
This film that resembles a soap bubble suddenly dissipates!!
The extremely subtle transparent ripples that resembled water waves went straight through the body of the larva.

Under Redstone's gaze, the giant scorpion's body trembled violently, and then it curled up into a ball in pain, falling straight towards the ruined hatching tower base below.

The whole process didn't take even a second.

As all the transparent ripples dissipated in the dim space, the sudden feeling of dizziness also slowly dissipated.

In the holographic projection, the bright red warning information and information entropy fluctuation monitoring instruments gradually returned to normal.

This information storm, which came without warning, dissipated.

Redstone, who was the first to recover, stared blankly at the giant scorpion that fell on the base of the incubation tower.

Giant scorpion, dead.

However, in just a few seconds, the solid information barrier was shattered, and the giant scorpion died completely!
Hongshi looked stiffly towards the driver's seat beside her. At this moment, she had already understood something in her heart:

If nothing unexpected happened, the information storm just now should be the work of Chen Fan! !

……

"call……"

Chen Fan exhaled a breath of foul air, slowly opened his eyes, and a hint of fear appeared on his face again.

so close.

The difficulty of controlling the information jet was far beyond his expectations - if he had not almost replicated the information circuit in the hatching tower, that information jet might not have been able to hit the giant scorpion larva at all!

Not only that, there is a high probability that the information jet will hit the investigator starship not far away.

If this is really the case, then he is a complete sinner.

In addition, he still underestimated the energy consumption of information manipulation - after completing that half-finished attack, he almost fell into a state of exhaustion again.

If the vacuum zero-point energy around the investigator's starship had not yet completely dissipated, he would probably have to drift for a while.

but……

Anyway, the result is good.

The giant scorpion was successfully killed, and the previous conjecture about the information shield was also verified accordingly.

"Chen, Chen Fan..."

Just as Chen Fan was feeling relieved, Hongshi's slightly trembling and hoarse voice came from the side, interrupting his thoughts.

It was not until then that he realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere inside the investigator starship - except for Hongshi, Isa and Gao Yuan were curled up in their seats in pain.

Of course, the redstone isn't in great shape either.

The three of them looked pale, and their bodies were twitching unconsciously, as if they had been hit by some severe shock...

Not only that, but various fault codes were also flashing on the holographic interface on the main console.

Looking at the scene in front of him, an astonishing guess slowly emerged in Chen Fan's mind.

"No, it can't be..."

The information jet just sent out clearly avoided the starship on purpose. Could it be that...

Could even the aftermath have such powerful destructive power?
Chen Fan stood up from the driver's seat at a loss, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"Why are you still standing there!"

Wang Jing's steady voice was heard from the quietly restored communication link: "Send them to the medical cabin quickly!!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Medical Bay!!"

Chen Fan responded repeatedly.

With the help of several ship-borne robots, he hurriedly sent Redstone and the other two into the medical cabin that had already been opened.

……

Half an hour later.

The three Redstones walked out of the medical cabin one by one and returned to their seats.

Thanks to the efforts of the adaptive maintenance machinery, many of the starship's faults were eliminated one by one, and the branch energy pathways that were originally actively cut off were also properly repaired.

Chen Fan lowered his eyebrows and sat upright in the main driver's seat, silently accepting the scrutiny from his three companions and Academician Wang Jing.

“…That’s roughly the situation.”

He carefully glanced at Wang Jing, who was silent in the communication interface, and then looked at his companion beside him, whose face was still a little pale: "Academician Wang, Hongshi and the others should be fine, right?"

There was silence for a long time.

"Don't worry, I just read the inspection report."

Wang Jing raised her hand to support her forehead and shook her head tiredly: "It's nothing serious, it's just that the consciousness has suffered a great impact."

"Next time you do these fancy things, remember to stay away from the starship."

Chen Fan smiled awkwardly and nodded.

How could he have known that the power of this information jet would be so terrifying, and that the aftermath of it alone could cause such a shocking blow...

"Although there are many flaws, I still have to say this based on the facts..."

Wang Jing sighed and said, "Well done."

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and the uneasy look on his face then eased.

"Your experience should be able to bring considerable progress to subsequent research work."

Wang Jing paused and said, "I still have the same request. You can be my assistant."

"Time is tight, and the Academy of Sciences still has many difficulties to solve."

Chen Fan, who knew that he had almost caused a disaster, naturally did not hesitate to respond to Wang Jing's request.
