Wandering planet that will travel

However, in the microscopic world at the subatomic level, they are almost reached at the same time, and the difference is probably less than 1 minute.

Because of this, Sophon never had time to escape, or do anything else.

But this also means that there is a significant difference in time between the two.

Qiao Li also immediately remembered that in Avengers 4, Ant-Man had only spent five hours in the Quantum Realm, while five years had passed in the Macroscopic World.

Einstein's theory of relativity has already proposed that time is relative, and around objects with large masses, or if the speed is fast enough, it is possible to have an impact on time.

When it enters the quantum level, all this becomes more unpredictable. Unpredictability is a major feature of quantum mechanics.

After all, it is different from the final Avengers entering the quantum realm equivalent to the parallel universe, and the time shuttle navigator invented by Tony may not work.

So who knows how long has passed in the macroscopic world, it may be far from the time Qiao Lv and the others perceive.

After shrinking to the subatomic level, Qiao Lv's sense of time and space gradually dissolved and disappeared, and now even the data displayed by the instrument became inaccurate, which made him feel even more uneasy.

After realizing this, Qiao Li immediately ordered:

"Let's go back quickly!"

Now that the first sophon has been eliminated, the method of countering the sophon has been successfully verified, and other teams have been told how to implement it.

Now that the situation has been basically brought under control, Qiao Li doesn't need to waste any more time.

They are going to return to the macrocosm right away, first of all they have to go back to the place where they first shrunk into the microcosm, so that they can safely return to their original size.

After constantly shuttling between atoms, Qiao Lv and others finally returned to the predetermined position and pressed the resume button.

After re-experiencing the scenery from the macroscopic to the microcosmic, which was just the complete opposite, Qiao Lv finally returned to the original starting platform, and recovered from the subatomic level to its original size.

He clearly felt that the surrounding scenery had changed, as if everyone had aged a little, but it wasn't an outrageously large scale, it was just a few white hairs on his head.

"You are back."

Zhang Bin, the president of the Central Academy of Sciences, led the scientific group to welcome the return of Qiao Lu and others. Each of them had a little change, which is enough to explain the difference between the macroscopic and microscopic time lapses.

"How long have we been away?" Qiao Lu asked immediately after returning.

"It's been almost two years. Our people were just about to shrink in and tell you about it, but you just came back."

Qiao Lv and the others spent absolutely only a few hours in the microcosm. Unexpectedly, two years have passed in the macrocosm. Sure enough, the theory of relativity also exists in the macrocosm and the microcosm.

Fortunately, Qiao Li didn't miss the time limit for returning, and with the time spent in the Marvel universe, it was just about the time when the remaining nine water droplets almost reached the solar system.

It's just that Qiao Li pretended to go into hibernation before, but he didn't expect it to be right. Although he didn't actually go into hibernation, he achieved a similar effect.

It can be said that Qiao Lv came back just in time for the decisive battle, which was better than being late or even absent.

Unexpectedly, Sophon has just been dealt with, and then he will face the final attack of the Three-Body Civilization!

6 Chapter [-] Technology Explosion

Because two years passed without paying attention in the microcosm, Qiao Lv had to regain control of the current situation as soon as possible.

Based on what he knew when he pretended to announce hibernation, the remaining nine drops would arrive in three years, so it was almost time now.

He hurried back to the headquarters of the coalition government. Just two years was not enough to bring about earth-shaking changes here. Luo Feng was still the one who greeted him, but the years had left the mark of two years on him.

"Qiao Li, you are back."

Luo Feng was not too surprised and said that Zhang Bin had probably told him the news a long time ago.

Qiao Li said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to take so long."

"It's not your fault. The problems involving quantum are inherently complicated, and the Central Academy of Sciences has only recently learned some laws."

In any case, this operation allowed humans to successfully get rid of Sophon's surveillance, which has a crucial impact on the battle situation, and it is definitely worth the time spent.

"Did any accident happen?" Qiao Li asked.

Although Qiao Lv disappeared for two years, but with the coalition government in charge of the overall situation, nothing major should happen.

In fact, everything was going according to plan as he had imagined, and there was no confusion due to Qiao Li's temporary departure.

However, there were no accidents on the human side, but the Trisolaran civilization has undergone tremendous changes.

The Trisolaran fleet needs to pass through two interstellar dust belts to reach the solar system from Centaurus. In the dust clouds, the trajectory of the Trisolaran fleet can be clearly observed, and the speed of the Trisolaran fleet can also be indirectly analyzed.

Before the Wandering Earth crossed over, the Trisolaran Fleet had passed through the first dust cloud, and it took five full years, which also became a major factor in the contempt of the Trisolaran civilization by human civilization at that time.

But when Qiao Lv entered the microscopic world, it only took six days for the Trisolaran fleet to pass through the second cloud of dust!

There is not such an exaggerated difference in the thickness of the two dust clouds, and it can even be said that the difference is almost the same. The sudden shortening from five years to six days immediately sounded the alarm for human civilization.

This can only mean one thing - the Trisolaran fleet has reached the speed of light!

Luo Feng said: "We seem to have overlooked one thing. The technological explosion is not the patent of human civilization. Any civilization may happen. There is no reason to think that human beings are the fastest-growing civilizations in the universe. Maybe the technological explosion of other civilizations is even faster. .”

It has always been a mystery when the technological development of the Trisolaran world changed from a constant speed to an explosive acceleration.

Some scholars believe that this acceleration occurred long before the end of the war, while others believe that the leap occurred after the first droplet was destroyed.

Scholars agree on the cause of the three-body technological explosion, which is mainly due to the huge impact of human civilization on the three-body world.

Since the first sophon arrived on Earth, the influx of human culture has brought about profound changes in the Trisolaran world.

Part of the values ​​of human beings are recognized: it is discovered that the totalitarian system created in response to the disaster of the chaotic era hinders science, the freedom of thought is encouraged, and the value of individuals is respected.

Among them are the strategies and tricks displayed by human beings, and the various tactics and regimes born from them are all paths that have never been imagined for the three-body civilization with transparent thinking.

These are all likely to trigger a Renaissance-like enlightenment movement in that distant world, and then produce a technological leap.

This must have been a glorious history, but the exact process is unknown.

"A technological explosion occurred in the Trisolaran civilization?"

It can be said that there is nothing worse than this. Sui Di and Sophon are already difficult enough, and now the Trisolaran Fleet is also coming to join in the fun, which immediately adds many variables to the situation.

Luo Feng explained: "According to our guess, it should be that the Trisolaran civilization was already in the period of the technological explosion, but because of the destruction of water droplets and sophons, they concentrated more on the Trisolaran fleet, which they didn't pay much attention to at first."

Through technological leaps, the Trisolaran civilization successfully allowed the Trisolaran fleet, which was originally 2.1 light-years away from the solar system, to reach the speed of light.

Two years have passed now, which means that the Trisolaran Fleet has almost reached the solar system, and can join the remaining nine water droplets to launch an attack on the earth together.

Qiao Lv finally understood why the high-level civilizations in the Three-Body Problem were so tireless in erasing any low-level civilizations that exposed their existence.

Even a weak and ant-like civilization that seems to never be able to catch up with itself should not hesitate to use big killers such as light particles and two-way foil to destroy the entire civilization without leaving a trace.
