Membrane
Under Chen Ling's leadership, the crowd rapidly moved towards a certain direction in the deep forest.
The good news was, this time the crowd followed behind Chen Ling walking for two hours, also didn't appear any more weird matters. The surroundings seemingly forever were all quiet dark forest, under the feet was a rugged mountain road that forever couldn't be finished walking. Except for communication and Compass becoming invalid, there was no difference with the time they set out.
After this period of time's buffer, the crowd also thoroughly relaxed down. Thinking back again to the matter happening just now, also didn't feel how weird it was. Perhaps it truly was only a single ordinary getting lost in the mountains that's all.
Perhaps feeling the atmosphere was too oppressive. That scientific researcher wearing black-framed glasses, suddenly opened his mouth asking:
"Dr. Su, do you believe there is parallel space-time?"
This question instantly attracted everyone's attention. Even Lu Xun all turned his head looking towards him, a smear of surprise flashing past deep in his eyes.
Su Zhiwei didnt expect he would suddenly ask herself this question. After looking at each other with him for a glance, she didn't directly answer, but rather asked back: "Dr. Lou, are you asking for my personal view towards this question... or are you asking String Theory?"
"All of it." Dr. Lou answered without the slightest hesitation.
The other six space dimensions, we have no way to perceive. But they perhaps exist within the microscopic world. Just like right now we use our naked eyes to observe an atom, it is a point, which is zero-dimensional. But if we go deep into its interior, using a microscopic angle of view to observe it, its existence is exactly three-dimensional... Which is to say, dimensions will change because of the method and different angles of observation... Therefore we usually believe, the smaller the world the higher the dimensions.
Looking from this theory, if on this world there really exists high-dimensional creatures like Divine Beings, then they very likely exist between a particle of dust floating past, or a certain slightly inconspicuous cell within our bodies. Therefore in a portion of religious theories, will believe 'Everything is exactly god, god is exactly everything', 'One Flower One World, One Leaf One Bodhi'..."
Lu Xun hearing this, frowned asking, "Dr. Su, you just said, the world is eleven-dimensional... Then where is the last dimension?"
"The last dimension, is a 'Membrane'." Dr. Su paused for a moment, "All the 'Strings' constituting this world of ours, all exist on this Membrane. Which is to say our world itself is all trapped in the Membrane. And in the universe there exist countless sheets of this kind of Membrane. They overlap together with each other. The Strings on each Membrane all have no way to interfere with each other. These 'Membranes' are exactly the so-called parallel space-time."
"Therefore in String Theory, parallel space-time exists." Dr. Lou's both eyes slightly narrowed.
"Right."
"Then what about you? Putting aside String Theory not talking about it, do you personally feel parallel space-time exists?"
Dr. Su was silent, seemingly seriously thinking about this question, "Dr. Lou, String Theory is my research direction, I naturally will assume in my heart it is real... In my eyes, the world exactly operates like this."
Dr. Lou deeply looked at her for a glance, "...I know."
"Dr. Su, I still have a question." Lu Xun subsequently opened his mouth, "If countless parallel space-times really exist, then is there anything, able to pass through the 'Membrane', freely travelling through between them?"
"...Yes."
"What?"
"Gravitons." Dr. Su explained, "In General Relativity, gravity crosses dimensions, including the 'Membrane'... However, the existence of Gravitons is only a hypothesis. Currently still no one can prove it exists. But theoretically speaking, as long as making the String vibrate at a certain specific frequency, then can manufacture out Gravitons, thereby passing through parallel space-time."
Dr. Su like thinking of something, looking towards a figure in the corner.
"Regarding Gravitons, Dr. Ji should understand more than me?"
That figure raised his head looking at her a glance, indifferently saying, "Dr. Su misunderstood. What I research is the Higgs Boson, which is exactly the 'God Particle'... with Gravitons it's completely two kinds of things."
Chen Ling only then noticed this figure who from beginning to end trailed at the very edge of the team. Since starting to set out, he almost didn't say a single sentence, to the point that Chen Ling all didn't notice his existence... However, what is this God Particle doing again?
Chen Ling felt he himself was just like a study slag mixed into a group of study tyrants. The questions these people explored he couldn't understand a single one... only knowing parallel space-time exists, and there is still something able to freely shuttle among them.
Hearing it like this, it was still Lord of the Aurora's professional Domain that was the simplest and easiest to understand... Of course, it was also possible he himself basically hadn't learned the essence.
Chen Ling long sighed a breath.
Right at this time, he suddenly stopped his footsteps.
Along with Chen Ling stopping, the crowd behind also one after another stopped. They doubtfully looked at Chen Ling's back figure, just about to ask something, Chen Ling suddenly roared loudly:
"Get down!!"
The voice hadn't yet fallen, Chen Ling then abruptly turned his body back, pouncing down the closest Yang Xiao to himself onto the ground!
Dong——!!
A sound like a muffled cannonball exploded from between the forest. In the darkness a giant shadow like a jackal leaped up. Its length was at least four to five meters, straightly pouncing towards above the crowd's heads!
Fortunately the crowd's reactions were also not slow. The remaining eight scientists without the slightest hesitation got down. That ghastly giant shadow almost brushed past skimming their heads. Borrowing the flickering flashlight rays, could see the other party's explosive squirming muscles, and that pair of black wings like a bat behind its back!
Calamity?!
Seeing this thing, Chen Ling's heart shocked.
Not right ah... the Great Cataclysm hasn't yet started, how could a Calamity appear here??
"Open fire!!"
The Special Operations Squad protecting the ten people reacted extremely fast. After avoiding this monster wolf then at the first time raised their muzzles, pulling the triggers!
Da da da da da——
Bullets accompanied by spurting firelight shot towards the monster wolf, but were all bounced open by skin like steel and iron. Piercingly bright sparks illuminated a corner of the night sky. The crowd's eyes were full of unbelievable colors.
Along with the monster wolf's loud roar, its figure once again crazily skimmed in the dark night. Instantly pouncing down the two closest gun-holding figures. The bloody basin large mouth opening once, two blood pillars then spurted up!
This incomparably bloody scene, frightened silly the scientific researchers prostrating on the ground. Although their Mental Fortitude wasn't weak, but seeing this kind of cruel and violent slaughtering scene still couldn't stop being terrified. Fortunately perhaps it was the reason of them lying prone on the ground, that monster wolf did not rush towards them, but rather continued pouncing towards the other gun holders!
Chen Ling's both eyes slightly narrowed. He just stood up his figure from the ground, that pair of eyes flickering with deep blue radiance then swept past the surroundings...
Not knowing when, rays of weird and ghastly shadows, had already from the deep parts of the forest approached towards here.
They were already surrounded.
