Chapter 1591 - The Deal Between Civilizations (2/2)

As for the location where Jiang Chen and others were now, it was probably in one of the tunnels, near the edge of the spherical space.

Just like what he suspected, the temperature here was not high as the theoretical estimate of thousands of degrees, at least not in the space built by the Gaia civilization. There was no life signal around, so it was likely that the place had been abandoned for many years.

It was surprising that this place survived the baptism of time.

Jiang Chen looked to Lilith behind him, then back at Golovin I.

“Have you been here before?”

“No, I just read it from old files. It’s a pity that it’s not us who received this place.” Golovin I shook his head.

The “us” here probably referred to the CCCP. Before the space colonization ship Svetovid took off, CCCP, PAC, and NATO all explored and excavated the relics of Gaia civilization, to the point where in the decade before the war, several local conflicts erupted here on the surface of Mars for this reason… Jiang Chen heard Lin Lin mention this information before.

“There is the planetary furnace. Atoms are disassembled into the quarks, then fired to the center of the furnace through a particle accelerator. The disassembled particles are stacked layer by layer and then compressed through the pressure of the entire planet… This is the so-called planetary forging technology.”

“It sounds simple,” Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Disassemble atoms into quarks, and then use the internal pressure of the planet’s core itself to compress the disassembled particles into the range of strong interaction forces. Just like building a house, stacked in circles, it was the basis of strong interaction materials.

It was only possible to find a small amount of naturally occurring materials with strong interaction forces in the depths of the planet’s core, billions of years old.

Theoretically, there was no stronger object in nature.

“But it is quite difficult to achieve. Before the particle spacing reaches the range of the strong interaction force, it will receive exponentially increasing repulsion as the spacing decreases. You can imagine connecting broken magnets through the original point of fracture.”

“…I see, it seems that I oversimplified this.” Jiang Chen laughed.

“The production of strong interaction material is roughly equivalent to crushing magnets into the size of rice grains, then turning the magnets into the size of a building. In fact, it is this technology that ended the Gaia civilization.” Golovin I turned around and looked at Jiang Chen, “Let’s not talk about it, give it to me, and as agreed, we will help you solve your problem.”

“What should I do?”

“There is only one thing to take away,” Golovin I’s finger pointed to the front of the pipe.

At the deepest point, was the metal sphere connected by metal pipes.

If the entire spherical space was a “factory”, then that was probably the “furnace”.

“I can’t put the connected things into the sub-dimension,” Jiang Chen said.

“Then separate it from the particle accelerator.”

As Golovin I spoke, he walked forward.

He stopped at the end of the pipe, extended his right hand, and imprinted it on the metal sphere with the circular dent.

The light blue light particles followed his palm and spread towards the metal spherical shell.

A look of surprise appeared on Jiang Chen’s face.

Before he realized what was going on, he heard a “sssss” like leak. The pipes connected to the spherical “furnace” were like the antennas on an old radio and started to shrink layer by layer.

Because it was located in the very center of Mars, the entire furnace floated in mid-air as if there was no gravity.

Golovin I read the surprise in Jiang Chen’s eyes and explained.

“There is no language in Gaia civilization, and it can’t even make sounds. They rely on telepathic communication. And in this regard, we happen to be experts.”

After a pause, he continued.

“Now, it’s your turn.”
