Free Web NovelChapter 1438: Chapter 681: The Air Was Transferred! _2
Many experimenters simply stood fifty meters away, wearing only simple radiation protection suits.
Actually, they weren’t even necessary.
The level of compression, which had just reached the e-ratio, would release radiation and magnetic fields in an instant, neither of which would affect people fifty meters away, and both the radiation and magnetic fields dissipated quickly.
Before the release of the Z-wave, Zhao Yi had been staring at the detection data until the Z-wave was completely released and all reactions had ended. Indeed, as Ruan Wenye had said, there was no movement on the detectors’ needles.
In other words, the connection device two kilometers away had not been able to transfer the Z-wave.
"It’s just as I told you, there was no reaction at all. We have already done three similar experiments, one of which even used a high-power emitter," Ruan Wenye said with some regret.
Zhao Yi furrowed his brows. He wasn’t paying attention to Ruan Wenye’s words; instead, he was carefully considering the theoretical logic.
The experiment led him to two conclusions.
First, there were changes in the laboratory; it was just that the changes hadn’t been detected.
Second, the Z-wave indeed hadn’t been transferred, which was consistent with the conclusions of the Z-wave experiment team.
So, what exactly had changed?
Zhao Yi pondered carefully but came up with no answers. He decisively waved his hand and decided, "Let’s do it again!"
"Again?"
Ruan Wenye sounded somewhat surprised.
Zhao Yi nodded and said, "This time I want to stand closer."
"But—" freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Zhao Yi knew what Ruan Wenye wanted to say and said with certainty, "If everyone else can stand that close, why can’t I? Don’t worry, I’ll wear protective gear."
"Alright then."
Ruan Wenye agreed, albeit with hesitation, and immediately arranged for the second experiment. During the preparatory process, he regretted his decision.
Zhao Yi requested to stand twenty meters away, which was still somewhat dangerous.
Ruan Wenye couldn’t convince him by himself, so he simply found several people to persuade Zhao Yi, but it was to no effect.
Zhao Yi insisted, "Your protective suits are very effective. If that’s not enough, I’ll find a space suit."
"—Alright!"
Ruan Wenye thought for a moment and felt the latter was very reliable. He immediately got a suit delivered.
The experiment was postponed to the next day.
As the day began to lighten, the experiment was already ready to go.
Zhao Yi, dressed in a space suit, stood ten meters outside the Z-wave coverage area; he wanted to be as close as possible.
Next to him,
Ruan Wenye also wore a space suit and dejectedly pulled up his visor, saying, "I’m really putting my life on the line for this one, risking my life for scientific research—"
"There’s no danger at all!" Zhao Yi interrupted with conviction. "The radiation level at this location is theoretically more than five times lower than that in space four hundred kilometers away. These space suits we’re wearing can withstand high magnetic fields and radiation. There is no danger at all."
"—I was just expressing a sentiment."
Ruan Wenye also didn’t think there was any danger. Wearing the space suit was truly safe, it was just too heavy, and walking in it was a problem.
He had just walked a few hundred meters and it felt like a century had passed.
Finally, the experiment began.
Zhao Yi and Ruan Wenye stood close by, observing the Z-wave coverage area intently, while the electronic screen in their hands was also connected to the area two kilometers away, with all the detection data being refreshed in real time.
Once the space connection device was activated, Zhao Yi became much more serious. He didn’t pay attention to the electronic device in his hand, but watched the Z-wave coverage area intently, especially the area being transferred by the space connection.
"Start!"
"Z-wave release—"
Along with the start command, the Z-wave was immediately released; from a close distance, one could see the metal being compressed, but nothing else occurred. The detection data only showed the compression rate of the Z-wave coverage area, with no other changes.
"It seems it’s still the same," Ruan Wenye remarked, "There’s no difference, exactly like yesterday. I was hoping for a miracle today."
He spoke with a note of regret.
Zhao Yi, on the other hand, became much more solemn. He had been paying close attention to everything in the coverage area, including the compressed metal, the ground, and so on. Then he thought of a key aspect—
The air.
[Question: During the recent experiment, did the air undergo any changes due to the influence of space link technology?]
[A: Yes.]
[B: No.]
[Law of Cause and Effect!]
[Answer: A.]
As expected!
Zhao Yi received the answer he wanted. He was extremely surprised. Air isn’t generally affected because the compression ratio is very low, and after the Z-wave’s release ceases, it immediately returns to its original state.
Space Link Technology can transfer energy, but air is not energy; it’s an actual substance.
How does a substance change?
Zhao Yi stood in place, deep in thought, constantly utilizing the Causality Law in his mind, and soon he came up with an answer. fгeewebnovёl.com
A small portion of the air had been transferred!
Although the proportion transferred was extremely low, even just one nitrogen particle being transferred was an absolutely groundbreaking discovery.
This discovery held immense scientific value.
In research terms, the presence of one implies the potential for two, and the ability to transfer one air particle means the possibility of transferring two, three, and many more until the quantity becomes impossible to ignore.
Besides, it represents an important breakthrough—spatial substance transfer.
After coming to a conclusion, Zhao Yi walked back. Dozens of meters away, staff members approached to remove his spacesuit.
Then he continued towards the control room, instructing seriously, "Call all the responsible parties together for a research meeting."
"What?"
Ruan Wenye thought Zhao Yi had given up, only to hear him call for a research meeting.
"Why? Did you find something?" he asked, puzzled.
Zhao Yi fell into silence for a moment, then responded, "I believe that this research is bound to unearth new findings. It’s just that the experiment design was too crude; we need to conduct more meticulous experiments."
"—Alright then."
Ruan Wenye had no other option. He didn’t think Zhao Yi was correct; the detectors showed no readings, indicating that Z-waves couldn’t be transferred, so why continue with the experiments?
This research seemed meaningless!
But since Zhao Yi insisted on preparing an experiment, he could only help and go along. Indeed, he was the head of the Z-wave experimental group, but all the latest technology was developed by Zhao Yi. Without Zhao Yi, there wouldn’t even be Z-waves, let alone an experiment head.
So, in the field of cutting-edge technology, companies and experimental groups, including the Space Link Technology Information Company, the Z-wave research group, the Advanced Compressed Materials Company, and even the Aviation Group’s anti-gravity research team and space shuttle project team—all had Zhao Yi as the most authoritative voice. He could even make significant decisions on his own.
Zhao Yi generally would not interfere with related work, but when it came to research, everything would prioritize his ideas, making others’ thoughts unimportant.
Ruan Wenye had a clear understanding of this and, although he didn’t expect any findings, he promptly informed others to join the research meeting.
Very soon.
The core members of the Z-wave experimental group had arrived, and they all gathered in the control room, some murmuring about what experiment they should conduct next.
Zhao Yi sat at the center position, recording something earnestly with a pen. He looked up and said seriously, "In the coming days, everyone should prepare. I plan to conduct a more meticulous Z-wave transfer experiment."
"Our goal isn’t to transfer Z-waves, but rather to see whether the combination of Z-waves and Space Link Technology will cause any changes."
"This will also be part of the research on the physical properties in the wave-covered area."
This perspective received much support.
Although the Z-wave transfer seemed to have failed, the study of the physical properties of the wave-covered area was definitely the future direction of Z-wave research.
Following this direction would surely be correct.
After hearing Zhao Yi’s explanation, Ruan Wenye started to support the idea, even if the experiment yielded no conclusions, it would still be a definitive one—
The energy changes within the Z-wave covered area cannot be transferred by space link.
Therefore, conducting more meticulous experiments was still valuable.
Zhao Yi briefly explained, then delved into the experimental details, "We need to construct a vacuum area, roughly four cubic meters of space would suffice."
"This area is beyond the capabilities of a normal vacuum pump, and besides, we need to place some equipment inside, so we’ll have to build it by ourselves."
"The experiment is to direct the space link into this vacuum area."
"Whether it’s energy or anything else, if there are changes in the vacuum area, they should certainly be detectable."
