CHAPTER 530: CHAPTER 529: NEBULA BLACK HOLE

In the starry sky, a rich flow of cosmic materials moves like water.

It’s like a dazzling, flowing oil painting, resplendent and brilliant, stunning and eye-catching!

The Wandering Nebula travels along the direction of the material flow, which saves a lot of effort and increases its speed slightly.

During this journey, Black Hole Lu Chen, as the leader of the Wandering Alliance, inquired about the specifics of technology and weapons within the alliance, because such phenomena are very likely caused by a Level 5 civilization and there might be a possibility of warfare erupting, thus the Wandering Alliance needed to make comprehensive preparations.

Moreover, the Wandering Alliance also wanted to ask other Level 5 civilizations about the actual situation of the Cosmic Center.

After some investigation, Black Hole Lu Chen finally gained a detailed and comprehensive understanding of the weapons and technological level of the Wandering Alliance during this period.

First with regard to weapons, since entering Level 5 civilization, the Wandering Alliance’s commonly used weapons have been Information Pulses (at three Energy Levels), Information Source Collapse, and Information Zero Domain, and they were actively working to overcome Information Reversal.

With the developments over this period and the diligent efforts of various professional researchers, the Wandering Alliance had recently succeeded in controlling Information Particles for over a hundred years. This achievement helped overcome the technological barrier of Information Reversal, successfully developing and mastering Information Reversal, which is the highest level of weapon technology achievable by a Level 5 civilization.

This also represented that the Wandering Alliance had narrowed the gap with other Level 5 civilizations, now possessing substantial confidence for a direct confrontation.

However, the weapon experts of the Wandering Alliance were not satisfied with the achievement of Information Reversal. Based on the principles of Information Particles, they proposed an extremely innovative concept for a new type of ultimate weapon.

This new type of weapon, referred to by weapon experts as Information Virus, though it includes the word "virus," is not a biological weapon but a high-tech Information Weapon. It is called Information Virus only because the attack principle is somewhat similar to a Trojan virus in a network. The Wandering Alliance’s weapon experts planned to modify some Information Particles into special Information Particles under their control, then inject these particles into the enemy camp, and let them influence and destroy from within.

That is the origin of the name Information Virus.

However, according to what Black Hole Lu Chen understood, this new type of weapon was still in the research and development phase and had not been actually manufactured.

Because to create such a weapon, the Wandering Alliance needed to further miniaturize the Atomic Computer in order to manufacture and control Information Particles for attack, so the weapon experts informed Black Hole Lu Chen that it might take some more time before this new ultimate weapon could officially be applied.

In response to this, Black Hole Lu Chen did not say much, but instead encouraged the experts.

He knew well the difficulty of scientific research and development, and since they already had Information Reversal, it was enough for the Wandering Alliance to defend itself.

As for the technological level of the Wandering Alliance, as previously mentioned, after the Wandering Alliance’s research on Information Particles reached its peak, it also encountered scientific bottleneck that other civilizations have faced.

Because all matter and rules in the universe had been thoroughly researched, only the mysteries of the Universe’s birth, life origins, and the enigma of Black Holes and White Holes remained unsolved. However, although there were no new materials or rules to study, and no way to break through the scientific apex, the scientists of the Wandering Alliance continued horizontal development, broadening scientific and technological applications and densely populating the technology tree within existing rules. Innovations like the Information Virus were created.

Nevertheless, the scientific bottleneck was ultimately insurmountable, as stated before.

Because all science and technology are developed laterally within existing rules and frameworks, just like nuclear fusion in atomic energy - no matter how it develops within the principles of nuclear fusion, it cannot surpass the energy efficiency of nuclear fusion itself unless new natural laws are discovered, such as annihilation, Space Zero-point Energy, etc. However, the current problem is that all Level 5 civilizations have not found any rules above Source Material Information Energy, nor have they discovered particles more microscopic than Information Particles for their research.

It could be said that all Level 5 civilizations and all scientists felt a profound malice from the universe.

Of course, the scientists of the Wandering Alliance did not concede defeat and many continued their research day and night.

Especially the astronomers realized that if there were a way out of this universe, it was most likely to be found within the White Hole at the core of a Black Hole. Thus, in recent times, all the astronomers of the Wandering Alliance gathered at the Wandering Base on Earth, collaborating and refining theories related to White Holes.

Just like that.

After traveling cautiously for a distance, the Wandering Nebula gradually approached the end of the material flow and, with advanced detection equipment, the Wandering Alliance finally witnessed the scene at the end.

An incredibly large Black Hole came into view, so large that everyone in the Wandering Alliance couldn’t help but stare, as this was the largest Black Hole they had ever seen—literally incomparable. Not to mention its mass, just the diameter alone of the Black Hole ahead was almost half the size of the Wandering Nebula, about 150,000 light-years. Fifteen thousand light-years might not seem that much, but keep in mind that this is a Black Hole, and its density is at least ten thousand times that of the Wandering Nebula. To have grown to such an extent, who knows how much material this Black Hole has absorbed?

And just think, a Black Hole as large as a nebula—how terrifying is that?!

It was only then that the Wandering Alliance realized, with a Black Hole of such size and mass, no wonder it could cause such a massive range of material flow.

At this moment, the equipment of the Wandering Alliance detected the nebula Black Hole ahead (termed as such due to its size akin to a nebula) and uncovered shocking information.

"Report, there are intense Intention activities within the nebula Black Hole ahead, and the number of Intentions within exceeds imagination, indicating that the nebula Black Hole is not a common Black Hole, but a life-bearing celestial body. However, what’s curious is that, from our detection, the Intentions within the nebula Black Hole differ from known Biological Consciousness and Celestial Consciousness, and they seem to be the primal Intentions mentioned in the Life Unity Theory!"

The Life Unity Theory is a predictive theory about life’s origins, considered as the most likely to unlock the true mystery of the origins of life.

And primal Intentions refer to the original and unified state of Intentions granted to all independent lifeforms in the universe.
