I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World - Chapter 1225

Chapter 1225 – We Don?T Have To Use Electromagnetic Waves

Dr. Amos? field of research was in electrical engineering and neurology. He lived in a research institute on the basement floor of the Future Group with his daughter, who was still in elementary school.

The neural bridging technology of Celestial Trade that enabled the human consciousness to directly connect with robots was one of his inventions. It even won the approval of a digitalized human from the twenty-second century. The technology played a pivotal role in Celestial Trade?s space construction and mining field.

Strictly speaking, his expertise was not compatible with Project 071, but geniuses always received many privileges. Jiang Chen often rewarded researchers who were invested in academic research and made outstanding contributions with more privileges.

For example, Dr. Amos recently had a strong ?interest? in aerospace and applied to join Project 071. Therefore, Jiang Chen immediately approved the decision.

It was just that since the establishment of the project team, he seemed to be zoned out from the start. It was the first time he openly expressed his opinion.

Dr. Amos stood up and said as he grew more excited.

?We could make a bold assumption that 3.7 billion years ago, the entire northern hemisphere of Mars was still a sea. At that time, Mars was the world of arthropods. They fought each other and finally a special species… who had more arms, or smarter brains, in short… were vastly different, ended up at the top of the food chain. Much like our ancestors did.?

Everyone around the conference table, including Jiang Chen, watched the passionate Dr. Amos with the same stunned expression.

?They used tens of thousands of years, or hundreds of thousands, or even millions, or tens of millions of years to end the great migration. They built a fire near a river and ignited the flames of the Stone Age. They were good at digging holes and more sensitive to ores than humans. They quickly moved from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and quickly moved toward the Iron Age.?

?Because of the collective consciousness and the restraint of reproduction, it may have taken them longer to be free from slavery and the matriarchal form of society compared to us. But in the endless struggle, they finally did it, they got rid of the old thoughts and finished the Renaissance Era. They eventually went through the Industrial Revolution, and entered the modern era, and may have gone further than us…?

?The society made up of arthropods… that is ridiculous.? The previous professor who refuted him, said in disbelief, ?If they could go further than us, why have they never been here.?

?Maybe they have been,? Amos shrugged. ?It?s just that you and I haven?t noticed. The time scale of more than three billion years has gone beyond the reach of archaeologists. They may be older than the cyanobacteria from Archaean rocks of western Australia.?

?Indeed, we don?t rule out this possibility.? Hawking, who also did not speak previously, suddenly spoke up and stood on Dr. Amos?s side. ?Any species has the potential to evolve into a civilization. Especially in this magical universe, anything incredible can happen on the scale of billions of years.?

?I still can?t believe we have enough evidence to prove that…?

The table was divided into two sides. The conservatives thought that the discovery at Mine 071 was likely to be a natural phenomenon. It originated from large-scale volcanic activity two billion years ago. The spiral void was only formed after alkaline rocks were eroded by acidic groundwater, and the special mineral was only sprayed out from the inner mantle.

The other side?s perspective was bolder, or full of imagination. As Dr. Amos said, this spiral formation was not a natural phenomenon at all, but rather buildings of a civilization that humans could not understand.

Or ruins.

?We have to go down to find out.? A scientist was rubbing his temples as he said with a bitter smile.

?The drone can only reach six kilometers underground.? The expression on Kelvin?s face was somewhat helpless. ?This also surprised us the most. The iron content in Martian soil is too high, and the target area may be a rich iron ore, causing the electromagnetic waves to be attenuated. We have increased the power of electromagnetic waves to the limit, but the size of the drone can only be so big… unless we build a communication base station below, but this is impossible.?

?Wired transmission?? Jiang Chen frowned.

?There is no equipment,? Kelvin shook his head. ?It is on Mars, not our lawn. It?s not difficult to design a wired transmission detector, but Mars is now moving to apogee. If all goes well, we may only see what?s inside Mine 071 next year.?

Wait until one year later.

For aerospace research, waiting for one year may not be a problem. But waiting for a year to drop a detector may be too slow.

Just when everyone was in deep thought, Dr. Amos spoke again.

?Maybe we don?t have to choose electromagnetic waves.? Breaking the silence at the conference table, this time Amos looked at Jiang Chen and said in a subtle tone, ?Electromagnetic wave communication may not be possible, but the thing I?m studying…may be possible.?

When Jiang Chen heard this, he understood what he meant.

That?s right, electromagnetic waves can?t do it, but it?s not difficult for that thing to do it.

Klein particles!

Klein particle waves can transmit information through the fourth-dimension. If it can easily permeate through time?s boundary, it can easily pass through a few kilometers underground.

However, only Jiang Chen and Dr. Amos knew about Klein particles. Therefore, everyone else was completely confused by the phrase ?maybe we don?t have to choose electromagnetic waves?.

?What is it?? Kelvin had to ask.

?Another Class-S confidential?? Dr. Amos shrugged. ?Perhaps even higher.?

?Let?s end today?s meeting here.? After understanding what Dr. Amos meant, Jiang Chen stood up and looked around the scholars and experts before stopping on Kelvin. ?Come and see me after.?

?Okay.? Kelvin nodded.

After the meeting, Jiang Chen asked Amos to wait for him at the gate of the express train, then he walked with Kelvin.

?Other members of the Earth Defense Alliance may have gotten some news, but it is nothing substantial. They may know something big is happening on Mars, but they?re confused about the details.?

?You?re worried…? Kelvin?s eyes flickered.

?Yes,? Jiang Chen nodded seriously. ?Now is the moment we need to be united. Unnecessary suspicions may cause cracks in our alliance.?

?But we can?t prove that Project 071 is connected to extraterrestrial civilization, telling them will do nothing except create more arguments.? Kelvin smiled bitterly while he shook his head, ?How did the information get leaked? The port? Or…?

?Putting that problem aside. With the business activities of Celestial City increasing by the day, it?s very difficult for such a large project to be completely disguised. Especially when we dispatched Marine Corps to Mars, it would be odd if no one suspected anything.? Jiang Chen shook his head. ?We must know what is hidden in that mine. If it?s a treasure, then get it quickly. If it?s just a pile of scraps, then clarify the misunderstanding.?

After a pause, Jiang Chen went on.

?After you go back, I want you to do something right away.?

?Go ahead,? Kelvin said immediately.

?Transfer the command authority of the frontline working team of Project 071 directly to me, and I?ll personally take command of the situation.?
