Chapter 348: Chapter 250: New Era (8,000 Words, End of Volume) (Part 5)

"Big White, Big White has woken up!" Jiang Chan said excitedly, "It wants to see you!"

"This guy, finally awake!" He Xingzhou stood up. He had always wanted to know why the Zerg came to the Solar System, who Big White really was, and what was really behind all of this?

Big White had said that it would tell him the answer once humans cleared the Blue Star Insect Clan, but it ended up "unconscious" for three years. If it weren’t for the fact that it still had life signs, He Xingzhou would have made it into a specimen!

"Zhilan, I’m going to the research institute," He Xingzhou said.

"Will you come back for dinner?" Xu Zhilan inquired, "If not, should I bring it over?"

"Sure!" He Xingzhou nodded, then shouted, "Lu Mi! Armor!"

"Master, the armor is here!" Lu Mi said, as a bunch of lightweight armor modules flew out from He Xingzhou’s armor vault.

He Xingzhou spread his arms and legs, and these armor pieces automatically assembled onto his body. This was the second-generation Meteor Armor made with nanometer technology by He Xingzhou, equipped with an internal actuation balance system, ensuring the body would not be harmed even when accelerating instantly to supersonic speed.

The second-generation Meteor Armor flew out through the window, zoomed past tall buildings and countless flying vehicles, and landed at the Tower Research Institute.

The Tower Research Institute had now become a large research zone!

He Xingzhou slowed down and landed on the ground, greeting personnel around him, all of whom greeted him in return.

"Hello, Dean!"

"Hello, Dean He!"

He Xingzhou was now also serving as the dean of the Blue Star Alliance Science Academy, so the researchers called him Dean He, while others addressed him as Chief Commander.

He Xingzhou nodded back in acknowledgement and quickly made his way to the biochemistry research base, where Jiang Chan had been waiting for him.

"Zhou!" Jiang Chan was wearing black mismatched socks paired with a white dress, her eyes delicate, black medium-length hair draped over her shoulders, exuding energy.

Her outfit was actually a type of research apparel, made from new carbon fiber materials and microelectronic materials that allowed the clothing to adjust colors at will.

So now even researchers could wear designs they fancied.

"It’s inside, eating!" Jiang Chan opened the door to the special research room, and at first glance, He Xingzhou saw Big White eating its seafood rice bowl, its mouth full of little fish and shrimp.

"You’re finally awake!" He Xingzhou walked in and said, "The previous answer, you should tell me now, right?"

"No rush, I’ll tell you after I finish eating." Big White feasted and soon filled its belly to bursting.

"So satisfying!" Big White patted its belly and said contentedly, "It’s been so long since I’ve eaten, it’s so satisfying!"

"Big White, get to the point, we’re all waiting!" Jiang Chan urged.

Big White gulped down a few more sips of water, then said, "I haven’t broken my promise! For the past three years, I have been preparing!"

"To know the answer, first receive a package; it should be arriving shortly."

"A package?" The two were puzzled, "From where?"

Big White closed its eyes, and after half a minute, it suddenly said, "It’s here!"

Almost simultaneously, He Xingzhou received a message from Xuanwu: "Chief Commander, we detected an anomaly outside in space!"

Over the years, humans had launched many probe satellites into the surrounding space.

At this moment, there was satellite footage coming in.

In the vacuum of space outside Earth, there was a strong energy wave erupting, and a luminous orb appeared!

"What is that?" He Xingzhou was startled, and soon he saw a metal box flying out of the orb, heading towards the Blue Star.

"It’s the package!" Big White said, "I spent quite some money to buy it; you guys should thank me!"

"Could that white light be an insecthole?" He Xingzhou asked.

"Of course, a small insecthole," Big White said proudly, "First time seeing one?"

"You can actually create insectholes?" He Xingzhou was shocked. Having insecthole technology means a civilization can traverse countless light-years, which at least indicates a Level 4 or 5 Civilization!

"I would like to have insecthole technology, but this is not mine," Big White said, "This is technology from the Order Alliance."

"Rest assured, it’s not a weapon, it’s a Subspace Communicator."

"A Subspace Communicator?" Jiang Chan asked curiously, "What does it do?"

Big White explained, "Didn’t your Blue Star Civilization’s Einstein propose the Model of Four-dimensional Space? Our three-dimensional universe would curve towards the fourth dimension (time axis), that’s four-dimensional space."

"For instance, the plane of two-dimensional space curves into three-dimensional space to form a sphere. Imagine our universe as such a sphere, just curving along the time axis instead of the Z-axis. The space we inhabit is the outermost surface of the sphere, and penetrating inward from the surface toward the center point of the sphere is what’s called subspace."

"Advancing on the surface of the concentric sphere allows for traversing the speed of light, transmitting information or matter at warp speed."

"This is also the principle of insectholes, making information transmission far easier than traditional methods. This Subspace Communicator can connect you to the subspace information world... hmm, in your terms, it’s a super virtual universe throughout the cosmos!"

"Are you saying that advanced civilizations in the universe have built an information virtual universe in subspace, and through this device, we can access it?" He Xingzhou was genuinely amazed this time; he was well aware that there were many other civilizations in the universe.

Humans have speculated much about cosmic civilizations, like friendly cooperation, dark forests, and so forth.

But such a sudden appearance of a subspace virtual universe was astounding enough for He Xingzhou, as it meant they had the opportunity to communicate with other civilizations!

"That’s exactly what I mean!" Big White was very pleased with He Xingzhou and Jiang Chan’s reaction, this was true technological superiority!

At this moment, the package had already reached near-Earth orbit, and the space armor was retrieving it, bringing it back to a base on the ground.
