The lecture hall was like a pot of boiling water, boiling in an instant.

People let out surprises, exchanged horror in their eyes, expressions of disbelief, and even bewilderment.

As a result of the observation, the superposition state collapsed, and a series of chain effects were triggered, causing the mass to move from the n+1 dimension to the n-dimension.

Meaning, there are "people" observing them outside the box?

That sounds a bit ridiculous......

as well as scary.

It's like an eye, gazing at their every move in the void farther away than Andromeda, but closer than the moon. And through an invisible sieve, they carefully sifted through the dust of the universe to the intelligent civilization they liked.

And now, through this sieve, it has discovered their presence.

What does this mean?

Nobody knows.

It is precisely because of this that many people have panicked expressions on their faces.

At this juncture, the most calm is Fernando, who is sitting in the front position.

Maybe it was the fearlessness brought about by ignorance, compared to the physicists present, he didn't fully understand what Lu Zhou was saying, but just captured a few somewhat harsh keywords.

"The Void?"

"Isn't this what the Precursors called the Void? That is, the great spirit of the universe actually exists? ”

Muttering to himself, the eyes of this diminutive man gradually brightened.

It's as if I saw some kind of unrealistic hope......

At the same time, directly in front of the lecture hall.

Not caring about the chaos in the lecture hall, Lu Zhou used the marker pen in his hand to write down his argument process on the whiteboard unhurriedly.

【…… Mπ2=(1/2)(mu+md)＜0|ΨΨ|0＞/Fπ2】

【＜0|Aμa(x)|πb(p)＞=ipμFπδabe-ipx】

【……】

Locked intently on the line of calculations on the whiteboard, Professor Witten, who was sitting in the audience, his pupils contracted slightly.

Just a few minutes ago, when he had just heard Lu Zhou's theory about the extra strings and the observer beyond the horizon, the expression on his face was somewhat disagreeing.

Then, after seeing these calculations, the expression on his face finally gradually changed.

Sitting next to Professor Witten, the expression on Perlmutter's face was a little cramped, and he looked left and right to observe the expressions on the faces of the other colleagues next to him, and then coughed lightly and tentatively said.

"His calculations seem to be a little difficult to understand......

In fact, the incomprehensibility is just a euphemism.

From the fifth line of the second whiteboard onwards, the bewildered expression on Professor Perlmutter's face did not change.

It stands to reason that he studied astrophysics and knew a lot about mathematics. Although this understanding is only the meaning of application, not research, at least so far he has not been completely incomprehensible.

But now, everything presented on the whiteboard subverts all his original concepts.

Not only did he not understand it, but he even began to wonder if this line of arithmetic was still in the realm of mathematics, or whether he had been completely left behind by this era.

"It's a bit hard to understand," Professor Witten said in a deep voice, his eyebrows locked, "and there are many theories of topology, algebraic geometry, and especially the latest unified theory of algebraic geometry...... I haven't studied mathematics for so many years, and it's not easy even if I want to understand it completely. ”

"You can't even read it?" Perlmutter's eyes widened in surprise, and he opened his mouth and said, "Then who else can prove that he is right or wrong." ”

Witten shook his head, turned his gaze to the sound and shadow with his back to the room, and the lines of calculations pouring down from his pen like a waterfall, and was silent for a few moments before speaking.

"I don't know."

"Anyway, let's see him keep writing."

It's far easier to find fault with a theory than to prove it correct.

If not, they can turn to other mathematicians for help.

Truth be told, Witten wasn't worried, and it ended up in the kind of situation Perlmutter feared.

Whether it is out of trust in Lu Zhou's character or out of belief in his academic strength, Professor Witten is convinced that he will not bring unscrupulous things to everyone.

On this point alone, Witten is at least eighty percent sure that the theory he has expounded is probably the truth that he has confirmed with his eyes......

The other side of the lecture hall.

Luo Wenxuan, the secretary general of the IMCRC, also had a surprised expression written on his face.

Although he was born in mathematics, the situation he faced at the moment was not much better than that of others.

The complexity of the calculations made his scalp tingle, and although he was not completely incomprehensible, his sluggish analytical ability made it almost impossible for him to keep up with the rhythm of the land boat.

Often, as soon as he understood what one of the lines of the equation meant, and what role it played in the whole argument, the wandering marker had already scribbled a dozen lines on the whiteboard.

He couldn't help but wonder in his heart if this guy had thought about it when he wrote these things. Or do you already know the whole process by heart, and you can perfectly reproduce all the steps to the whiteboard with muscle memory alone?

If that's the case, it's a little too scary.

Academician Lu Jianshen, who was sitting next to him and had been staring at the whiteboard, suddenly sighed with emotion.

"From today onwards, the future of physics will be completely rewritten."

As soon as he heard this, Luo Wenxuan was suddenly shocked and glanced at the old man in disbelief.

"You understand?"

Academician Lu: "No, what's wrong?" ”

Luo Wenxuan Khan said: "Then why do you say that? ”

Academician Lu thought about it and smiled embarrassedly.

"This ...... It's a kind of scientific intuition. ”

Luo Wenxuan: "......"

No matter how wonderful the expressions on the faces of the audience were, the tip of the pen in Lu Zhou's hand standing on the stage trembled slightly, completely forgetting the time and space he was in, and the pair of eyes that gathered behind him, and all his attention was completely focused on the problem in front of him.

Based on the data collected by IMCRC in the 5.12Tev~5.17Tev energy segment, he was able to infer that this phenomenon of "mass transfer" will collapse violently when the collision energy reaches the 7.17Tev~7.74Tev energy level, and eventually disappear completely around the 8Tev energy level.

If you can't understand where the mystery behind this mysterious phenomenon comes from, there is a good chance that physics will be locked here.

After all, building a collider is not an easy task.

If the whole of physics has lost its meaning in the higher energy regions, the civilization that has fallen into the trap will probably completely abandon and continue on this path unless it can perceive the trap itself.

As he originally used in the analogy, it is like a sieve that brutally filters the entire universe, weeding out the ants who cannot pass the obstacles, and deterring those who are lucky enough to pass the obstacles, announcing their existence.

If this sieve existed in the old universe, it is very likely that the civilization or individual that set it up would be a completely different existence from the "observer".

And its existence, I'm afraid, is not so friendly......

Writing down the last talisman, Lu Zhou stopped the pen in his hand and looked back at the silent lecture hall.

Most of them didn't come back from the shock, and the most common expression was staring straight at the whiteboard, trying to understand the mystery behind the line of calculations.

Although he didn't want to disturb the thinking of the hundreds of audience members, he still owed a final summary of the presentation.

Clearing his throat, Lu Zhou said in a clear voice.

"The proof is over here."

"What we have to face may be an even more pessimistic situation than we imagined."

"Regardless of whether there is good intentions in this or not, let's return to the original topic—namely, whether or not there is a spirit in the universe."

"I can't prove it with the current technology, and I don't want to discuss it too much. Whether it is conscious determinism or material determinism, the question is best left to time to answer. ”

"I can even foresee this becoming a controversial topic for centuries to come."

Looking at the silent venue, Lu Zhou gently put down the marker in his hand and continued in a serious tone.

"However, from the standpoint of a physicist, I would prefer that the debate on this issue remain in the realm of philosophy. At the very least, until we can touch the 'great being' using the scientific method, it is best to put aside the controversy. ”

"As for the void, that is, the extra dimension beyond the n-dimension......"

After a pause, Lu Zhou looked back at the whiteboard behind him, "As my proof explains, this is almost the only explanation that can explain where the inflated mass comes from and where it goes. The mass did not disappear out of thin air, but fell from the n+1 string to the n that we could feel."

"As to whether the great consciousness governs it, or whether matter determines its objective existence, as I said earlier, the question is irrelevant to physics at this stage."

Whispers were heard in the room.

People exchanged incredulous glances, hoping to get answers from the expressions on the faces of the other peers, but even with the world's best minds gathered here, there were very few who could read the obscure process of proof on the whiteboard.

The Q&A session begins.

To Lu Zhou's surprise, no one raised their hands.

Just as he began to reflect on whether the theory he had previously expounded was too advanced, or if it was too jumpy, an unexpected person suddenly stood up.

"Your theory proves that Professor Garrett Miró's depiction of the Void is real!"

With an unexpectedly excited expression on his face, as if he had a chance to win, Fernando looked directly at Lu Zhou standing on the stage, raised his voice and continued.

"It also happens to prove that the great spirit of the universe is omnipresent and omnipotent."

Because of this sudden interruption, the atmosphere at the scene was unexpectedly a little more active.

Listening to the bursts of laughter coming from behind, Fernando's face turned red, and a look of annoyance and anger gradually appeared.

If it weren't for the policeman's gaze on him, he swore he would never have been so restrained.

Looking at Fernando, who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, Lu Zhou did not laugh at him, but said patiently.

"I don't know that your Professor Garrett Miró is drawing on my theory of extra dimensions when describing the Limbo. Of course, he won't tell you, after all, these things are too difficult for you. ”

"You!"

Fernando clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but before he could take half a step, he was pressed back by the person next to him.

As if he hadn't seen his irritability, Lu Zhou continued.

"Yes, I do prove that the void exists, and that it is everywhere and everywhere."

"But to say that it can do anything...... You may be overthinking. ”

"I'll prove it," Lu Zhou, looking at the audience in the lecture hall, gently stacked the scratch paper on the lectern, and continued in a calm and powerful voice, "The next experiment of the IMCRC will use hydrogen ions to conduct a collision experiment with 10Tev as the target energy level. ”

"I'll prove it."

"Even if the Void is staring at us, it is by no means omnipotent."
