Chapter 34 A long time ago (3)
"Wait a minute! It seems very strange..."
Although it is impolite to interrupt others' speeches in the middle, Feng Kan really cares about certain places.
"Isn't 785 and 711 only a 64-year difference? Why can the Davis go to a place 13 million light-years away? Even if it can move forward at a speed of super-light, it has to be limited?"
The speed of light propagation in a vacuum is about 300,000 kilometers per second (calculated value of the speed of light: c=(±0.10)km/s), which is one of the limit values of the universe. No matter how fast accelerates, any tangible object can only approach the speed of light infinitely and cannot reach the speed of light. The reason is that the relative relationship between speed and time. The faster the speed, the slower the time elapses (the terrifying amount of energy is required to accelerate to the near-light speed and what happens to the terrifying kinetic energy at such a speed is another question, which is too complicated, so I won't go into details here). This is like an invisible hand holding the action, keeping the speed of the object always close to the speed of light infinitely but always a little bit less than that inability to reach the speed of light.
In this case, how can we reach a distance of 13 million light years in just over sixty years? The so-called light years refer to the distance that light walks for a year. One thousand three hundred light years means that even light has to walk for a distance of 13 million years. This...
If you don't understand this problem, it will make you unable to sleep.
"No, even if it is driven by the infinite crystal spiritual power, it is impossible to reach the speed of light. As long as it exists in this universe, there is no existence that can reach the speed of light, let alone exceed the speed of light."
The Undead Natural Scourge, who was interrupted by the speech, was not angry, but instead acted like "I finally waited for it"...
Although his current appearance makes Feng Kan want to complain very much, his desire for knowledge has an absolute advantage on the scales in his heart, so let's bear it this time.
"But the so-called 'move' is not so monotonous that there is only one way."
“Eh?”
"Moving in space must be restricted by distance. The time passed from point a to point b is proportional to the distance. This is the concept of speed. But have you ever thought about what the so-called 'space' looks like?"
"Ha?"
What does the space look like? How should I answer this...?
"Invisible. Intangible. You can only use your senses to perceive the surrounding environment indirectly. Space is such a thing - in terms of biological perception, but what I want to tell you is - in fact, space is fibrous, do you believe it?"
“???????????”
This concept is really too abstract, even the eyes of Xiu have turned into two mosquito coils.
"Well~~ I guess it's hard for you to understand."
It was like a teacher facing a stubborn student. The undead natural disaster rolled his eyes and shrugged. He took out a bundle of rubber bands from somewhere.
"Simply put, you just imagine the world we live in is like this, a ball of countless rubber bands..."
It's really a rubber band? By the way, everyone from Truntucker really understands what it is? (Trantak doesn't have rubber products yet.)
“Often our movements are like this…”
As he said that, the Dead Natural Scourge stretched out a finger and slid along the surface of the rubber band.
"Of course, we are not just the surface of space. But in space, you can understand it yourself... This way of moving is the most common way we can usually do, but if we find the right method and enough energy, we can move like this..."
In order to demonstrate what he said, the Dead Natural Disaster used two fingers to pull one of the rubber bands, pull it slowly to extend it, and then let go...
"Bang!"
"Just like this, it's not about moving in the space, but about moving in the direction you want with the traction force of the space itself..."
“…”
Everyone except Britain was shocked.
"Of course, this method of movement is not unilateral. Just like after taking a piece of water from a basin of water, the water from other places will be immediately filled into the original place where the water is. The surrounding space will also be filled into the original space at the same time. Therefore, the shortest distance from point a to point b is not a straight line, but an overlap after folding in half..."
""ah!""
Feng Kan and Xiu thought of something at the same time.
“Isn’t this…”
"Yes, you've actually seen this way of moving. Since we stepped into Gardtevaz, we have moved more than once."
“…”
Feng Kan grabbed his head and looked shocked.
This is incredible!
This is not a momentary movement at all, it is a space replacement!
How did Truntak technology develop at that time?!
"So using this method, the conventional concept of speed was not a big obstacle for the immigration fleet at that time. The speed of light, the ultimate speed of the universe, was not an insurmountable barrier. It was just not necessary to climb over, just go around. Compared to when you can go to the destination, where to use the destination is more troublesome."
Indeed, we must find a planet that can survive and reproduce in the vast and unknown universe...
It is probably countless times easier to find a needle in a haystack.
"And the reason people can do this is entirely because the omnipresent crystal spiritual power is used reasonably - oh~ Dr. Amos? Mockro is really amazing."
It's really amazing.
The meaning of this technology is just like the invented meaning of the Wright brothers on Earth. It makes human movements look like they are leaping from traditional plane movement to three-dimensional movement, and the speed limit disappears. Then the human activities and vision range will suddenly become wider.
Isn’t this the problem that has troubled the development of aerospace technology on Earth now? Although humans have printed their footprints on the moon, the moon is just the Earth’s satellite and the natural celestial body closest to Earth in the universe. Even so, the distance between the moon and the earth is 300,000 kilometers. It takes three days to go to the moon with the fastest spacecraft now. If you want to go to Mars, it will take at least three months to fly, and you can only use unmanned probes to conduct scientific exploration...
This range from the Earth to the Moon orbit is the range that humans can move at present. For example, it is like a person who finally opened the door and walked out after working hard, but he was just walking in his own small courtyard - he hadn't even stepped on the street yet.
Humans on Earth cannot even leave the solar system, let alone find new colonial planets. (The only man-made thing left the solar system so far is the Voyager 1 unmanned space probe launched by the United States on September 5, 1977. At 2:00 am on September 13, 2013, Nasa officially confirmed through a press conference that Voyager 1 entered interstellar space. After 35 years of time, Voyager finally left the solar system. How big is the solar system?)
I don’t know if this crystal spiritual power can be detected on the earth. If this energy can be used on the earth...
Ah! No, it's pointless to consider this kind of problem now.
"Such a prosperous civilization. Why..."
After understanding the above problems, new problems also arise.
“…”
Upon hearing this question, Muro and the Undead Natural Scourge looked at each other meaningfully.
"Everyone, I wonder if you have ever thought about why Eddie and I look like this?"
“……Eh?”
Blink and blink. Only then did everyone notice this problem.
Yes, why? Why are these two skulls able to speak and move like normal people...
No, no, wait, before this - why did Muro and the undead natural disasters become like this?
"Eddie and I exist in Gardtevaz in this form because - we atone for this."
“‘Atonement’?!”
"Yes, it's 'atonement', which compensates for the mistakes we made in the past stupidity and ignorance..."
“…”
I feel that the topic has suddenly become very heavy.
"…that…what did you do?"
Although this question was finally raised, I don’t know if it was the right action to raise this question.
"Before that, you can take a look at this."
Muro said as he spread his hands, a simple and heavy "book" appeared in front of everyone.
“… “Magic Taxonomy”?”
What's this?
Magic classification?
It feels like a directory.
"Look at it a little bit."
"oh."
After hearing Muro's words, everyone diverted their sights to the pages they opened.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Have you finished reading?"
"Well, it's almost the same." (For details, please see "The Magic Taxonomy of the Dark Bone Emperor Muro, who claims to be a scholar" included in the relevant article)
"What do you think?"
"It feels like a graffiti work of a cynical middle school young man. Although I don't know much about academic things, so I can't make a correct evaluation, but I feel deeply dissatisfied and indignant throughout this book. And I feel that the research on history does not seem to be very attentive... Is that novice the person who wrote this thing?"
"Haha, sorry, it's just the one who wrote this kind of ridiculous thing."
Mu Luo didn't care about Feng Kan's evaluation and answered his question with a smile.
"...Eh? No! Wait... This... is very sorry..."
What to do? Is it better to apologize first?
"No, it doesn't matter. You're right. If Eddie and I were able to accept such criticism at the beginning, there wouldn't be such a disaster that would have happened later..."
