I Really Didn't Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World-Chapter 603 - 388: Suddenly Wanting to Lie Down and Do Nothing_1
Chapter 603: Chapter 388: Suddenly Wanting to Lie Down and Do Nothing_1
May 26, 2020, 10 a.m., Oxfordshire.
Harrison Clark opened his eyes, his body still aching, as if he had been beaten.
He waited for about ten more minutes, and the intense pain slowly subsided.
He tried to move his fingers. No problem, they could move.
He began to sense the external environment and took a brief look at the room.
Familiar apartment room, familiar curtains, familiar sheets, and familiar smell.
The familiar wall clock’s second hand was still ticking away.
The sunlight outside the window seemed brighter than usual when he woke up.
Harrison thought it might be an illusion due to his improved mood, making everything seem more radiant.
Harrison took a deep breath.
Self-destruction success.
He didn’t screw it up.
Stable!
He grinned, his lips curling into a smirk.
Ironically, the fragile human body in this situation became an incredible advantage.
As long as one wasn’t instantly frozen to a near standstill, it’s much easier to die than to stay alive for a human.
Feeling that his body had mostly recovered, Harrison slowly sat up, rubbed his temples, and looked in the mirror in the bathroom.
He couldn’t be completely sure what state his body was in after dying in the Gene-Modified Warriors’ form and self-destructing, so he needed to see for himself.
The person in the mirror looked the same; his hair was still there, and his eyes didn’t have built-in colored contact lens effects.
His figure was still fantastic, making even himself swoon.
Harrison nodded, satisfied that his Demon War form hadn’t affected his appearance, and there’s no risk of being treated as a monster when he went out.
Returning to the window, Harrison looked up at the sky.
He wasn’t sure if that was the direction of the Primordial Black Hole, so he just assumed it was and let his thoughts wander angrily and imaginatively.
He had some regrets, though. He initially wanted to see if he could permanently keep the Gene-Modified Warriors form as a sort of “bug” and directly enter the universe in that state, trying to catch up with Voyager 2 before it reached the Electronic Black Hole. That would be great.
Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to be the case.
Of course, Harrison thought, even if he could exploit a “bug” to maintain a stable Gene-Modified Warriors state, it wouldn’t matter much.
Because he wouldn’t fly out anyway.
Harrison took out his phone and briefly read the article published by Edward Witten on April 29, 2020, where the scientific community temporarily dubbed it the Witten Black Hole.
Harrison believed the analysis in the article wasn’t far off from the truth, and the Primordial Black Hole Witten speculated was the same one detected by Star.
However, most of Witten’s data came from intuitive calculations and speculations, not necessarily accurate.
Witten could only guess there was a black hole there and suggested that if humans had a chance in the future, they could send a spacecraft at one-tenth the speed of light to investigate the situation.
But the top physicist and mathematician of the age couldn’t precisely define the suspect Primordial Black Hole.
He was uncertain about its exact location, properties, size, and lifespan.
Primordial Black Holes are unlike other black holes detected by humans.
If humans could monitor the high-energy X-rays emitted by them, their position and nature would have been accurately determined long ago.
Currently, they couldn’t. So Witten could only base his black hole hypothesis on seemingly metaphysical and imprecise data like space gravitational wave changes and background radiation levels, with a slightly unconfident tone, suggesting that future generations could have a look if they had the chance.
Thus, the Electronic Black Hole should have been lying dormant in a relatively silent state before absorbing the Voyager 2.
It had nothing to absorb, and it didn’t emit many X-rays on its own.
It wasn’t until 2025 when Voyager 2 was sucked into the black hole and the intense radiation changes during the black hole’s disappearance that it briefly showed any trace of its existence.
According to the “future historical materials” of astronomy, humans had captured it once in 2025 but couldn’t find an explanation, dismissing it as an ordinary random astronomical event.
There was a time discrepancy, as Voyager 2 couldn’t have reached the black hole in 2025 based on its speed and the black hole’s location detected by Star.
Going further back in time, on April 22, 2010, when Voyager 2 had just flown to the edge of the Solar System, it sent some strange and incomprehensible signals to humans, which were received by NASA after 13 hours.
There were two explanations in the scientific community at the time.
First, NASA scientists and engineers believed that there had been a minor malfunction in the spacecraft’s storage system, and the staff was actively trying to “repair it remotely with their minds.”
Second, German UFO expert Hausdorff argued that Voyager 2 might have been hijacked by aliens, its program rewritten, and humans unable to decrypt the data.
This seemingly trivial incident sparked a small debate in academia at the time.
Most people agreed with NASA’s side, thinking that Hausdorff was simply a fame-chasing pseudoscientist trying to gain notoriety through sensationalism.
Perhaps even Hausdorff thought so himself.
But later, as Voyager 2 resumed transmitting data, the debate died down.
Now, Harrison could confidently say that Hausdorff guessed correctly.
On January 24, 2020, NASA engineers at the Pasadena Jet Propulsion Laboratory sent an instruction to Voyager 2 to rotate 360 degrees and calibrate its onboard magnetic field instrument.
The command was rejected, and there was an unexplainable delay with Voyager 2.
More interestingly, Voyager 2’s “rejection” of human instructions led to a sharp increase in the energy consumption of two onboard systems, depleting most of the remaining power before recovering slightly.
