Chapter 150 The Risk Taker (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Today, the universe will shed its membranes and appear before us in its purest form!"

Ding Yi calmly announced that before him was the main control room of the Einstein Equatorial Accelerator.

His eyes, which didn't match his calm voice, were those suppressed, fervent eyes. He was staring intently at the statistics of the Einstein equatorial accelerator, his throat tight.

All indicators and data are being synchronized rapidly, and the Einstein Equator is ready to be activated.

Outside the main control room, Ding Yi's fanatical followers formed a human wall, and it was this human wall, composed of at least PhD holders, that hindered the progress of the heads of state.

As the final data modulation took place, Ding Yi's voice pierced the room: "Leaders, the observable universe is over 14 billion light-years across, meaning it has existed for at least 14 billion years. Humanity, however, has only been a distinct species for about 500,000 years. In those 500,000 years, countless people have gazed at the stars, wondering about the true answers to this world. I believe that you, too, were filled with curiosity about the world in your childhood, but that curiosity was ultimately extinguished by the monotony of life. But today, I will satisfy your curiosity, and indeed, the curiosity of every child throughout human history, to obtain the final answer."

I believe that when we look up at the sky, the starlight spanning billions of light-years, the starlight that has bewildered countless sages, will at this very moment intersect and calculate to arrive at a true coordinate system. The arduous journey of human scientific progress will become incredibly easy with the unfolding of this coordinate system. The blockade imposed by sophons will become insignificant. The fragments pieced together in countless applied physics projects since the time of Aristotle will soon be assembled into a complete puzzle. I declare once again, the bright age of human scientific progress is about to arrive!

Ding Yi trembled slightly as he gripped the corner of the table. There seemed to be some commotion outside, but he was completely unaware of it. At this moment, even the Wallfacer couldn't stop him, let alone the other party who had no reason to stop him.

The countdown is over.

Ding Yi pressed the button.

hum-

A powerful electric current surged from the main control room, reaching out the window. The Einstein Equatorial Accelerator, like a coiled black dragon, now transformed into a giant harp string, vibrating! The immense power from dozens of controlled nuclear fusion devices poured into this epic device; though it was the sound of electricity, to Ding Yi it sounded like celestial music.

When the Einstein Equatorial Particle Accelerator was powered on at full capacity, Ding Yi heard himself sobbing uncontrollably.

There could be no more wonderful moment than this; extreme ecstasy was dissolving his reason.

Yang Dong, did you see that?

Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside.

Ok?
Ding Yi felt as if the world in his ears had suddenly stopped, while the commotion outside the window grew louder and louder. He listened carefully for a while and realized that the low-frequency resonance emitted when the Einstein Equatorial Accelerator was running at full power had indeed disappeared.

Ding Yi looked up suddenly and, through the observation window, saw the desert that should have been hidden by the tunnel.

"What about the tunnel accelerator?"

With his last shred of reason, Ding Yi asked this question, which held countless hopes for the equatorial accelerator.
When he turned around again, he found that all the equipment in the main control room had disappeared. The endless green grass seeped out from the anti-static floor of the control room. The computers, the controllers, the monitors, and the people were nowhere to be seen. All that remained in place of these control devices was the lush green grass.

A crisp, fragrant aroma spread out.

"Am I dreaming...?"

Ding Yi closed his eyes. He seemed to see the vast sea of ​​stars churning, and the torrent of stars converging was washing over his will. When everything calmed down, he opened his eyes and returned to reality.

The grass is still there, but all the operating facilities have disappeared.

Outside the window, layers of lush green grass had spread out without anyone noticing, replacing the Einstein equatorial accelerator.

"I really am dreaming..."

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious; he was finally woken up by people in the control center.

Ding Yi opened his eyes and found that he had fainted at some point and was now lying on the sofa. Many people were gathered around him, including physicists and technical leaders, as well as leaders from various countries, all looking at him with complicated expressions.

"What happened?" Ding Yi felt his memory was a bit messed up, and he struggled to sort it out.

"Dr. Ding Yi, something has happened." The person speaking was crying. Ding Yi recognized him as Matsuda Seiichi, a Japanese physicist, one of the previous Nobel Prize laureates in Physics, and also one of his followers.

“Dr. Ding Yi, if you cannot bear the truth that follows, I suggest you go to sleep now,” a follower said.

Ding Yi stood up, glanced at the lush green grass in the control room, then looked out the window at the now-vanished tunnel, and calmly said, "Did the Wallfacers not want me to do this experiment, so they moved the tunnel away?"

"Brother Ding Yi, I really don't have that much free time, nor do I have that ability." A bitter laugh came from the corner.

After a long pause to process what had happened, Ding Yi blankly pushed open the door and, surrounded by the crowd, walked out. He quickly saw the scene outside the window: the cold blue light of dawn swept across the desert, and the silver-gray accelerator pipes that should have meandered through the sand were gone. In their place, a vibrant green wave had emerged.
Knee-high grass forms a broad strip of grass that stretches along the eastern and western horizons. Abundant vitality blooms in this grass, which continues to spread across the desert at an abnormal rate. At this rate, the entire continent of Africa will be covered by grass in no more than a day.

"That's great. If this grass could grow all over the world, the ecological collapse would be over," a calm politician remarked self-deprecatingly.

"The Wallfacer says it wasn't him, then who was it? The Trisolarans?"

The sophon expanded to its sixth dimension, displaying a line of text: "[It's not us, but we're very interested in this grass. Heh, can we exchange it? You send some grass towards the Trisolaran system, and we'll send back some technology through the Earth-Trisolaran organization.]"

The response to Sophon was a bullet, but just before the bullet touched Sophon, it had already shrunk back to its eleventh dimension.
Everyone looked at each other.

Ding Yi was running wildly along the blue road like a madman, smashing through the soldiers and police who were blocking his way, and crashing head-on into that incredible expanse of emerald green.

Waist-high waves of grass surged in the morning breeze. The chill of the desert morning, carrying the crispness of the grass, rushed over Ding Yi. He felt a chill run through him, unsure whether it was from the biting wind or the astonishing sight before him.

"What about accelerators? Are there still accelerators in other regions?"

Luo Qingpiao stood in front of him and calmly told him, "They're gone. The main components of all the accelerators worldwide have disappeared."

"They all turned into grass?"

Luo Qing shook his head: "There is grass only on land, and at sea, all that is left is the base."

"Who did it?"

Luo Qing pointed to the black square in the sky—Ding Yi hadn't looked up until now and had only just noticed the black square.

"What the hell is this thing?" Ding Yi asked, pointing at it.

"Zhizi said it is an ideal black body."

"An ideal blackbody? Is it the ideal blackbody I understand? That's just a physics concept, how could it possibly exist?"

“But it really exists here. I tried to stop it, but I failed. The military also made probing attempts to contact it, but all of them failed.”

Ding Yi collapsed to the ground, and Luo Qing sat cross-legged opposite them.

"This grass..."

"It's edible." Luo Qing nodded, plucked two blades of grass and threw them into his mouth, the fresh, green fragrance spreading freely.

"The great depression is over, the ecological collapse is over, and there's enough grass for all of humanity to eat indefinitely," Luo Qing said with a self-deprecating laugh.
"And they only need to grow in the desert. They will spread only in harsh environments without any living organisms, and they will not even crowd out the ecological positions of Earth's plants. These grasses can even turn the desert into soil."

Ding Yi knelt on the sand, his knuckles digging into the damp soil, and uprooted a clump of grass. The blades unfurled in his palm, plump and translucent, without any of the waxy layer or thorns typical of desert plants. Water droplets clinging to the stems and leaves refracted a strange halo of light.

Ding Yi chewed two. Thick green juice flowed between his teeth, carrying a refreshing scent like a forest after rain. That moist touch, unlike anything found in the desert, made his tongue tingle slightly.

Ding Yi remained kneeling, his gaze fixed on the withered leaf in his palm, as if trying to decipher the grand formula of the universe, the unified formula of the four fundamental forces, and the truth of the universe that he had longed for for countless years from the broken veins of the leaf.

After a long silence, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he asked in a tearful voice:

"Was this obtained in exchange for Einstein's equator?"

Luo Qing lay sprawled on the grass, sullenly saying, "Ah...who knows? Anyway, I don't have to farm anymore, so no one will starve to death anymore..."

"This is not an exchange, this is compensation for you."

The sound originated overhead, or more precisely, above that ideal black body. Everyone looked up and saw that the area where the black cube had been was now restored to its original state, replaced by a man floating in the sky.

The man landed quickly and smiled politely at Luo Qing, Ding Yi, Zhi Zi, and the crowd that had surrounded him.

"Nice to meet you. I am a sensor from the civilization of risk mitigators, employee number 299792458. It is an honor to meet you."
