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

Chapter 492 Light, Collapse! (Two in One)

"Kraken?"

Without any hesitation, Chen Fan called out to the surrounding starry sky.

but……

No response.

The vague message before was like an illusion and quickly dissipated into the starry sky.

The sea of ​​light before his eyes had completely dissipated, leaving only a little light red starlight coming from the distant starry sky in the empty starry sky.

Only those information flows that were integrated with the help of Chen Fan are still floating slowly in the starry sky.

As Chen Fan's thoughts moved, those weak streams of information seemed to be attracted by something, floating out from the collapsing sea of ​​light, and finally swaying to his side.

Under Chen Fan's control, this intangible and traceless information flow floated up and down around his body very "docilely".

Just like a puppy running around in circles around its owner.

Chen Fan looked a little strange. He shook his head, which was emitting a faint fluorescent light in the starry sky, and quickly put this outrageous idea behind him.

If age is taken into account, Kraken is probably a real old monster. In the eyes of the other party, a short-lived carbon-based monkey like him is probably just a pet.

Although the Kraken has not yet fully awakened, Chen Fan's eyes are becoming more and more joyful as he looks at the information flow floating up and down around him.

It turned out that his previous inference was not wrong.

The reason why Kraken has not woken up yet is entirely because the information flow is broken, which makes it impossible for it to regain full consciousness.

"Now that I think about it..."

Chen Fan subconsciously raised his hand, attracting the information flow beside him like teasing a puppy: "Kraken's consciousness is constructed by information flow, so instead of calling it nebula life, perhaps information state life is more in line with its true state?"

As he talked to himself, a hint of understanding flashed through his eyes.

He thought of a more crucial point.

Since he can precisely control the flow of information, doesn't that mean that Kraken's life depends entirely on his thoughts?
In the "puzzle" just now, he also had a deeper understanding of the structure of information flow. Now, as long as he wanted, he could spend some energy to disassemble these complete information flows into fragmented information factors again.

In this way, even if his nebula body can repair itself over time, his consciousness will never be able to recover.

It's like a vegetative person, except that this vegetative person's body is a little bit bigger, reaching a full eight thousand light years.

"No wonder he treated me with such respect when I first met Kraken..."

Chen Fan murmured softly, while skillfully driving the surrounding space, leading his consciousness to fly towards the farther starry sky.

He had to go to more distant star regions to find more fragments of information flow in order to reshape a complete consciousness for the Kraken.

……

One is born, the second is cooked.

With the previous experience of the five-dimensional puzzle, coupled with the real-time calculation service provided by Zero, it didn't take long for Chen Fan to be surrounded by a complete flow of information.

Like the first information stream, each stream contains part of the Kraken's consciousness.

These information flows surrounded Chen Fan, silently affecting the pale red starlight coming from every corner of the Land of Creation.

Under the reflection of the pale red starlight, Chen Fan's consciousness once again appeared in the starry sky - the last time this happened was during the prayer ceremony of the Xinalo civilization.

"Fortunately, there are no intelligent creatures in this universe except for the Kraken and Xinalo civilizations."

Inside the Investigator Starship, Hongshi looked out the window at Chen Fan, who was waving across the starry sky and wearing the limited edition Starlight Skin, and couldn't help but sigh: "Otherwise, we might have to spend a lot of energy on the aftermath..."

Isa nodded in agreement, and the azure light in her mechanical eyes flickered a few times - a figure wrapped in light red starlight kept flashing and shuttling in the starry sky. The picture itself carried a mysterious meaning.

Even some advanced civilizations that have stepped out of their home planet and into the interstellar space might be frightened by this scene, and even mistake Chen Fan for a god recorded in the history of civilization.

what?
How did she know?
Also, advanced civilizations are not so ignorant?

Isa sighed silently and turned to look at the holographic communication interface on the side.

The interface clearly showed the scene inside Xinalo's flagship - guards, civilians, and even some royal family members, all knelt spontaneously on the deck of the flagship. As for Queen Ophelia, who knew the inside story, helplessness was written all over her face.

Not bad.

These Xinalo people mistook Chen Fan, who was wrapped in starlight, for a star god, and were now praying and worshiping him.

You know, although its strength has declined significantly, the Xinalo civilization was once a real level six civilization!
If this bubble universe is as crowded as the node universe...

Isa couldn't help but shudder - she was afraid that Chen Fan had already received the summons from the Human Union Military Court.

On the other side, Chen Fan kept going back and forth in the starry sky, conscientiously referring to the puzzle strategy calculated by Zero in real time, repeating the somewhat boring puzzle work.

One light year, two light years, three light years...

When the range of Chen Fan's information collection expanded from one light year to ten light years, these carefully pieced together information flows finally showed changes again.

As the scale of these information flows gradually expanded, Kraken's fragmented consciousness gradually became complete. Perhaps the quantitative change caused a qualitative change. Chen Fan sensed a faint resistance from the information flows floating up and down around him.

seem……

For the first time, these rigid streams of information had thoughts and intentions of their own.

Chen Fan's heart moved, and he quickly released his control over the flow of information.

next second.

Just like the pale red nebula slowly wriggling under the influence of macroscopic gravity, these information streams began to converge spontaneously and formed an incomplete five-dimensional hypersphere in the starry sky.

The rich starlight slowly peeled off from the surface of Chen Fan's body and rushed towards the five-dimensional hypersphere formed by the convergence of information flow.

A very unique information wave was also faintly emitted from inside the hypersphere.

suddenly!

Before Chen Fan could figure out the meaning of the information fluctuation, something strange happened!

His eyes moved, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at the deep starry sky in front of him.

Fragments of information flow!
Endless information fragments with various structures are whistling in from the starry sky!

As if they were called by something, these fragments of information flow wandering in the starry sky were rushing towards them at an astonishing speed far exceeding the speed of light!

Under Chen Fan's extremely shocked gaze, these fragments of information flow automatically filled in the missing parts of the hypersphere structure.

Like its nebula body, Kraken's consciousness also possesses extremely strong self-repair capabilities!

As the hypersphere structure gradually became more complete, the light red starlight quickly became denser, and formed an undulating ocean of light in the starry sky!

At the same time, the previously vague information becomes clear.

【Dear messenger, thank you for your help. 】

Kraken's voice once again appeared in Chen Fan's mind: [The original prophecy...]

[Sure enough, there was no mistake. 】

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to continue asking questions, an inexplicable wave swept in from the distant starry sky!

He seemed to have noticed something and suddenly turned his head to look at the boundless starry sky in the distance.

From a high-dimensional perspective, a dazzling light flashed in the starry sky at the end of sight. The next second, the originally full cosmic membrane instantly collapsed inward.

It was like a pothole that suddenly appeared on the concrete road and swallowed people.

Chen Fan stared blankly at the starry sky in the distance, and suddenly realized something:
"Is this... Genesis Fortress taking action?"

……

A star field 2000 light years away from the galaxy of the Creation Site.

Just like the Land of Creation, this place is also filled with a sea of ​​light. However...

Different from the soft, light red sea of ​​light of the Kraken, this bright white sea of ​​light exudes a solemn and sharp aura.

In addition, it is very different from starlight. The way this white light propagates is obviously different from normal light. It fills every corner of the starry sky.

As long as you are in this star field, even if you are inside a light-tight planet, you can still clearly see this dazzling white light from the starry sky!
In the center of the white light, there was a huge double-pyramid fortress.

And within the range of the white light, endless giant star scorpions were rushing madly towards the fleet that was forming an encirclement!
The white light grew brighter and brighter until it outshone any star in the star field.

When the intensity of white light reached its peak, an amazing phenomenon occurred!

In the group of scorpions that were charging towards the fleet with all their might, their raised scorpion tails and bared fangs and claws were completely frozen in the interstellar space filled with white light.

Even the light that was originally flying at nearly 300,000 kilometers per second seemed to have a slow-motion button pressed. Its flying speed slowed down at this moment, and visible light paths appeared in the deep starry sky!
If a civilization happens to be conducting a light speed experiment in this star region, they may be extremely horrified to discover a fact - at this very moment, the speed of light, which was originally close to 300,000 kilometers per second, suddenly dropped to a shocking 30 meters per second!
Of course, there is no such advanced civilization in this star field.

Even if there was, they would not be able to enjoy such an amazing scene.

There is no other reason.

This phenomenon, which had never happened since the birth of the universe, lasted only one Planck time before it suddenly collapsed! !

An object with mass contains an extremely huge amount of energy.

E=mc. According to the mass-energy formula, we can know that the energy contained inside an object is related to its mass and the speed of light constant.

In the past, since the speed of light constant does not change, the energy contained in an object is only related to the mass of the object. The greater the mass, the greater the energy.

But at this moment, the world changed.

The mass did not change, but the speed of light constant dropped sharply from nearly 300,000 kilometers per second to 30 meters per second. The extent of this drop can only be described as horrifying!

But the mass-energy equation will not change because of this, it still applies in this starry sky.

In just one Planck time, the energy that an object can theoretically contain actually changes so dramatically!
But...energy doesn't mutate.

The originally stored energy will not suddenly dissipate.

Under the contradiction, endless energy gushed out from all the massive objects in the starry sky! !
The basic forms of energy are light and heat.

At this moment, unprecedented light and heat suddenly appeared in the originally deep starry sky!

The heat accumulated on the surface of the Star Scorpion, quickly accumulating to a terrifying level.

As for the light...

At the moment when the speed of light constant plummeted, almost all microscopic particles, whether atoms or molecules, collapsed at the same time, and almost endless photons emerged from these microscopic particles, trying to release their tremendous energy to the outside world.

A gamma-ray burst that should have been born from a supernova explosion erupted from all over the giant scorpion's body!

but……

The speed of light constant has become lower.

These photons move outward with difficulty at a speed of thirty meters per second. A photon traffic jam that has never occurred since the birth of the universe has occurred!

These photons piled up on each other in a very small area, and coupled with the extremely powerful energy in this area, an alternative collision between photons was born! !
The photon decays into an electron and an anti-electron, which annihilate and collide with each other, producing new photons and other particles again...

Light, collapse!!

This is a collision mechanism unique to photons.

It is also a unique phenomenon that belongs only to this small area. Under normal circumstances, there is not enough energy in the universe to support its occurrence - electrons and anti-electrons have mass, but photons do not. If you want to transform photons into electrons and anti-electrons, you must supply them with extremely terrifying energy.

It's not over yet!

The sudden drop in the speed of light constant has an enormous impact!

For example.

The sudden drop in the speed of light caused a huge change in the strong interaction force - the already terrifying strong interaction force suddenly increased countless times at this moment!
The various microscopic particles produced in the photon collision were compressed together by the powerful force before they even had time to react - protons and electrons were neutralized, and eventually electrically neutral neutrons were formed!

In an environment filled with such tremendous energy, these electrically neutral neutrons quickly aggregated and expanded. In just a moment, countless neutron star "seeds" appeared in the star field where the Star Scorpion was located.

Under the influence of gravity, these newly formed neutron star embryos quickly approached each other and collided extremely violently!
Strong gravitational forces rage in a small area, leading these neutron matter to unite with each other.

Ten thousand tons, 100 million tons...

As the mass of neutron matter continued to increase, a celestial body symbolizing the extreme was finally born.

Black hole.

A black hole that exists in a world with low light speed!

The moment it appeared, it greedily devoured all the matter and energy around it, and used them to strengthen itself.

All of the above happened in just a few Planck times!
what?
Starry sky scorpion?

As early as the first Planck time, the giant scorpion disappeared in the light avalanche!
How can these weak bugs block the destructive power of changes in physical constants? Even if these bugs already have strong interaction force armor and have mastered dark matter and dimensional technology, they are still just a bug in front of regular weapons, a slightly stronger bug!

……

The terrifying light collapse phenomenon only occurs near the Star Scorpion and some innocent planets.

What was a disaster comparable to the restart of the universe for the giant scorpion seemed to outsiders to be nothing more than an ordinary expanse of depth and darkness. In the vast scale of the starry sky, the speed of light of thirty meters per second was no different from that of a paramecium, and light could not penetrate the vast starry sky to reach the observer's area.

In addition, all this happened too quickly. Neither the heat nor the gamma-ray burst even had time to leave the giant scorpion and the surface of the planet, and everything was over.

therefore.

When the output power of Genesis Fortress reached its limit, Fang Yunsheng in the flagship fortress saw an extremely familiar scene - the starry sky that was previously bright with stars suddenly darkened, as if a huge black hole appeared in the starry sky, swallowing up all the roaring giant scorpions inside.

Even the high-dimensional light emitted by the Genesis Fortress disappeared in this star field.

Fang Yunsheng looked at the scene in front of him calmly, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

He knew that after the extreme restraint and gloom, there would only be an extreme sublimation and explosion!
as predicted!

Almost at the same time as the starry sky fell into darkness, the light of Genesis Fortress began to fade rapidly.

Correspondingly, its power began to drop sharply, and the speed of light in the target star field began to increase in leaps and bounds - the rules of the cosmic bubble did not change. After the Genesis Fortress stopped working, the abnormal rules of the target star field began to be gradually repaired.

Three thousand meters per second.

Three hundred kilometers per second.

Three hundred thousand kilometers per second!
In just a few seconds, the speed of light in the target star field returned to normal, and the low-speed black hole was completely exposed to everyone.

It was spinning rapidly in the starry sky, and due to the change in the speed of light, its internal structure also underwent drastic changes - the sudden attenuation of the strong interaction force made it impossible for it to continue to maintain its existence.

boom! ! !
Slow light speed black hole exploded!
A flash brighter than before appeared in the starry sky, spreading rapidly in all directions! !
On the scale of the universe, this star field has become the most shining existence at this moment!
Time passed bit by bit, the light gradually dissipated, and a neutron star with blue light flashing on its surface was quietly suspended in the starry sky.

After many extreme and rapid changes, a small amount of matter left after the death of the scorpion group eventually turned into this blue neutron star.

It spun rapidly, like a tombstone of a swarm of scorpions, releasing electromagnetic pulse signals of astonishing power into the empty deep space.

"It's finally over..."

Through the porthole with powerful filtering capabilities, Fang Yunsheng gazed at the neutron star with an extremely smooth surface and let out a long sigh.

Although he had seen the Genesis Fortress in action several times, each time brought him unprecedented shock.

Looking at the spinning neutron star, Fang Yunsheng suddenly felt much more at ease - in front of the rule weapons of the Genesis Fortress, no matter how exaggerated the scale and strength of the eighth-level civilization are, in the final analysis, it is just a bigger ant.

What’s wrong with a giant star scorpion in a cosmic bubble?
Below level nine, we are all ants!
"Take this neutron star."

Fang Yunsheng turned away from the porthole and walked towards his command seat, while issuing an order: "Notify the fleet to open up a temporary microcosm and put all the stars, white dwarfs, and neutron stars along the way into it."

He pondered for a moment and added:
"Oh, and a black hole, too."
