Chapter 512 Heat Death
Such a massive rule change will undoubtedly lead to an unprecedented cosmic spectacle - with the flagship fortress as the origin, the star fields within a radius of 10,000 light years completely rioted at this moment! !
First is the speed of light constant, one of the most critical constants in the universe.

It can affect almost every aspect of the universe, from celestial bodies to dust particles, nothing is affected by it.

At the moment when this strange wave enveloped the starry sky, some abnormalities appeared in the parameters that had never changed since the birth of the universe.

It was like it had drunk fake alcohol and without any warning began to jump up and down.

Sometimes it speeds up to millions or even tens of millions of kilometers per second, and sometimes it slows down to hundreds or even tens of meters per second.

The speed of light, which fluctuates between fast and slow, is diffused in the starry sky, forming blocks of different light speeds of varying sizes and constantly changing shapes.

In the fast-light zone, the speed of light has even far exceeded 300,000 kilometers per second, which directly changes the fine structure constant, that is, the strength of the electromagnetic interaction force.

To be precise, the electromagnetic interaction force is greatly reduced.

This is undoubtedly a disaster.

From a microscopic perspective, atoms and molecules can no longer sustain their own existence and spontaneously disintegrate into even smaller microscopic particles.

From a macroscopic perspective, the originally tightly bound matter began to dissipate silently and without any warning.

In the distance, in the starry sky that has not yet been affected by the aftermath of the macro-electronic bomb.

Countless giant scorpions gathered together, trying to launch a new round of offensive against the main battleship that suddenly stopped its offensive and hovered motionless in the starry sky.

suddenly.

When the strange wave came and the speed of light in this star field suddenly accelerated, the scorpion's forward momentum suddenly stopped.

Clusters of dense mist emerged around the giant scorpion. At the same time, the dark purple strong interaction force armor began to disintegrate at a speed visible to the naked eye - the increase in the speed of light weakened the strong interaction force, and the armor formed by dense neutrons naturally could not maintain its original state.

Roar! !

A trace of pain flashed in the giant scorpion's scarlet eyes, and it subconsciously twisted its body, trying to save the dense armor on which it depended for survival.

but……

The moment it twisted its body, the special body composed of silicon and carbon atoms combined together also self-disintegrated.

Wow! ! !
However, in the blink of an eye, this huge scorpion with a body length of more than 10,000 meters turned into a slowly spreading particle mist, dispersing in the starry sky.

What happened to the scorpions was only a small part of the spectacle.

Even more bizarre phenomena occur on some stars and planets that have managed to survive.

There is no need to say much about planets. On the scale of the universe, those behemoths that are thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers in size are actually no different from giant scorpions. The moment the speed of light accelerates, they quickly turn into countless misty particle fogs.

Only stars and celestial bodies with even greater mass are the protagonists of this show.

Unlike stars and planets, they are actually a perfectly balanced body.

The balance between gravity and the pressure of the inner core allows nuclear fusion, which can last for tens of billions of years, to be maintained.

The moment the rules changed, the originally dark red red dwarf stars suddenly became brighter, surpassing the brightness of regular stars at one point. As for regular main sequence stars, they were even changing towards giants and supergiants!
As they grow brighter, their rotation speeds are also increasing.

Under the premise that the mass has not changed, this change undoubtedly breaks the balance inside the star that has been maintained for countless years.

then……

A supernova explosion occurred.

When the scorpions and planets were reduced to dust, the show from the stars began!

boom! boom! ! boom! ! !

As the high-speed-of-light blocks moved rapidly, explosions of light appeared one after another in the starry sky, enough to illuminate the entire galaxy cluster!

As for the slow light speed blocks…

The scene there is completely opposite to that in the high-speed-of-light zone.

The reduction in the speed of light greatly increased the strong interaction force and the electromagnetic interaction force. Both the scorpion group and the celestial body spontaneously collapsed inward at this moment, and extremely miniature neutron stars appeared in the starry sky.

Under the influence of gravity, these neutron stars combined with each other and eventually formed low-speed black holes scattered in the starry sky!
These low-speed black holes operate in the starry sky. When they touch high-speed blocks, they will quickly disintegrate, and the matter and energy previously swallowed will explode in an instant - this power is even several times stronger than a supernova explosion!
but……

The regular attack launched by the Genesis Fortress from outside the cosmic bubble could never be limited to the single variable of the speed of light constant.

As the speed of light changes, a law that seems insignificant but is actually the foundation of the universe also changes.

PI.

It starts from a string of irrational numbers and keeps growing towards a nearby integer.

Finally, under the strange fluctuations coming from outside the cosmic bubble, it successfully became 4.

The circle turned into a square at this moment.

No, to be precise, at this moment, the concept of the past circle no longer exists in this star field.

This change in law was a catastrophic blow to both macroscopic and microscopic objects in the universe - the smooth organs in the giant scorpion's body suddenly developed sharp edges, and before the fluctuating speed of light could cover them, their internal organs were pierced by the edges that "grew" inside the body.

As for the bigger picture...

The original spherical and ellipsoidal appearance of planets and stars gradually disappeared, replaced by square edges, but this shape greatly destroyed the balance of the stars.

Needless to say, it further intensified the intensity of the starburst.

To put it bluntly, the changes in pi and the speed of light are actually only possible with the help of external objects. If there were no microscopic particles or macroscopic celestial bodies, these changes would not actually have any impact on the universe itself.

but!

When that strange fluctuation developed to its extreme, the most basic law of the universe was silently rewritten.

In the empty starry sky, a ball of dazzling fire appeared out of nowhere, but in the blink of an eye, the energy level of this fire soared from an imperceptible flame to a level far exceeding that of a supernova explosion.

But in the next second.

The dazzling fire went out without warning, and the temperature in the starry sky dropped from billions of degrees Celsius to -273.14 degrees Celsius in an instant.

It is only half a step away from absolute zero.

The extremely powerful energy that had previously permeated the starry sky completely dissipated in this instant!

The law of conservation of energy is broken!

In this star field with a radius of 10,000 light years, even the law of conservation of energy, which was unshakable by thunder and lightning, collapsed at this moment! !
Of course, this only occurs within a star field of 10,000 light years.

The vacuum zero-point energy from the Dirac Sea was like a reservoir bursting its dam, pouring back into this small star region almost madly.

Intense light and heat instantly filled the ten thousand light-year star field. Even though a series of basic laws such as the speed of light and pi were undergoing fluctuating changes, the final outcome of this star field did not change.

In just a few minutes, the entropy value in this ten thousand light-year star field expanded rapidly, and the matter in the star field also changed from order to disorder as the rules changed rapidly.

Heat death happened.

All effective energy is converted into heat energy, and even photons are completely extinguished at this moment.

At this moment, this star field of ten thousand light years completely turned into a desolate space with no energy flow.

Theoretically, no matter or life can exist in this silent space.

A group of scorpions is no good, and those three huge giant scorpions are even worse.

but……

At the moment when this 10,000 light-year universe went out, tens of thousands of golden fluorescent lights quietly lit up in this dark and deep silent space.

That is the main battleship of the peacekeeping fleet.

The brilliant golden light of the ship's shield completely isolated the surrounding universe that was in heat death, and the Genesis unit inside the starship, after executing the "003" command, locked all the rules of the ship's body firmly in its original form.

……

"The rule strike has ended." "The Genesis Fortress is in the final stages of closing. Please be patient."

A cold electronic synthesized voice rang out in the command center, stimulating Xu Mingqi's fragile nerves that had not yet recovered.

He took two deep breaths, stood up with difficulty, moved step by step to the porthole, and looked out.

Looking at the pitch-black desolate space where not even a single starlight could be seen, Xu Mingqi shook his head helplessly.

This star field is dead.

Even if the Genesis Fortress ends its rule attack now, even if the rules here return to normal, this starry sky will be completely ruined.

Although the Human Union has not yet figured out the true source of this seemingly inexhaustible vacuum zero-point energy, it is still certain of one thing.

That is, the extraction of vacuum zero-point energy comes at a price.

When the vacuum zero-point energy of a universe is consumed excessively, the universe will collapse again and completely disappear on the hyperspace membrane.

Similarly, when a piece of space in the cosmic bubble consumes a large amount of vacuum zero-point energy...

This space will also fall into "collapse".

At that time, neither curvature navigation nor wormhole jump will be able to operate normally in this dead space.

Correspondingly, this place will become a real forbidden zone for advanced civilizations.

The deep darkness outside the porthole gradually faded away, and tiny bits of starlight scattered from the distant starry sky, once again illuminating the starry sky that was losing its vitality.

A slight sound of movement came from the side, interrupting Xu Mingqi's thoughts.

That was the sound made by the shipborne robots carrying the personnel on board - under the attack of the information flow, the personnel on board who had not yet fully awakened were being sent to the medical cabin for treatment one by one.

suddenly.

“Go…go!”

An indistinct voice came from the main control console at the back, followed by a series of clanging sounds: "I... I'm fine!"

"It's just that I'm a little dizzy, you piece of iron..."

"Don't bother me!"

Hearing that familiar voice, Xu Mingqi couldn't help but show some surprise in his eyes. He turned and looked at the main control console: "General Fang?"

"Hey……"

Looking at Xu Mingqi standing by the porthole with a pale face, Fang Yunsheng grinned: "Academician Xu, I didn't expect you to be still alive!"

Xu Mingqi's face froze, and the caring words he had just organized were suddenly stuck in his throat.

"..."

God damn he's still alive!

He was not bragging. According to the previous situation, even if all the people on the flagship fortress died, he would not necessarily die!

"What...just happened?" Fang Yunsheng didn't pay attention to what he just said. He turned his head and looked around, his face slightly shocked. "Those giant scorpions..."

“We were attacked by information flow.”

Xu Mingqi shrugged his shoulders and tapped the porthole beside him with his fingers. "Fortunately, the Genesis Fortress arrived in time, but those three Titan motherships..."

“It still crashed.”

Fang Yunsheng's face darkened and a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Three secondary flagships were destroyed at once!

This was the first time in his fleet career that he had encountered such a situation. Not to mention him, I'm afraid the entire fleet rarely suffered such damage.

From this we can see how terrifyingly powerful those giant scorpions are!
“Is this… heat death?”

Fang Yunsheng suppressed the grief in his heart and looked in the direction of Xu Mingqi's finger, with more surprise in his eyes: "Is Genesis Fortress serious this time?"

"Yes." Xu Mingqi nodded in affirmation, "As for the three giant scorpions... they should be dead."

"I can't imagine any creature surviving such a blow."

Fang Yunsheng gave a dry laugh.

"yes……"

"It's already reached heat death. If it can still survive, that would be too fucking stupid..."

The words are not finished yet.

"Drip-drip-drip-"

A shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the command center: "Warning! High-intensity information fluctuations detected!"

Along with an electronic synthesized sound, a comparison result of information entropy fluctuations popped up on the azure holographic interface.

【Similarity: 99.9%】

Looking at the information that popped up on the holographic interface, Fang Yunsheng was silent for a moment, and struggled to complete the words he had not yet finished saying:

“…This is weird.”

……

Under the control of the ship-borne mainframe, the flagship fortress's jump engine emitted bursts of rumbling sounds - the aftereffects of the high-intensity rule attack finally emerged.

Although the heat death has just ended, the collapse and decline of this starry sky has already begun.

Whether it is curvature navigation or high-dimensional jump, at this moment, any mode of navigation based on space technology has been hindered to varying degrees.

Fortunately, the collapse is not serious.

After increasing the output power, the flagship fortress and main battleship, which were shining with golden light all over, successfully broke free from this space quagmire.

As soon as they left this star field, a scene they least wanted to see appeared before Xu Mingqi and Fang Yunsheng.

The giant scorpion leader, the strongest one among the five giant scorpions, also revealed himself in a wave of gradually stronger information entropy fluctuations.

Although compared with before, this giant scorpion had obviously suffered considerable trauma - the dark purple outer armor was almost completely peeled off, and the broken tendons and skeleton were exposed nakedly to the starry sky. Light green body fluids flowed out of it, and finally condensed into "dewdrops" under its own gravity, clinging to its body surface.

But even so, it is still alive.

It gently blinked its only remaining scarlet eye, which was filled with hatred and anger...

And a look of panic.

"Damn bugs..."

When enemies meet, they become extremely jealous of each other. This is true for the giant scorpion, and naturally so for Fang Yunsheng.

He clenched his teeth and squeezed out a sound: "How did this thing... survive?!"

There was also a hint of panic hidden in the extremely angry voice.

A creature that cannot be killed even in Genesis Fortress!
This is the only one since the birth of the People's Union!!

"I am not sure as well……"

Xu Mingqi looked solemn and pressed the communication button in the holographic interface: "It..."

"What is the origin?"
