Light Speed ​​War

Chapter 265: Seeking the Truth Again

"Commander..."

"Director Mei, please speak freely."

"Sir, from the perspective of physical laws, it is impossible for a bomb to remain suspended in the air for several minutes. However, combined with strange events such as satellite loss and missile failure, we believe that some unknown force has emerged, and this unknown force is interfering in this war."

"Yes, that's what I think too, and this unknown force seems to be helping us or favoring us."

"Yes, sir. But there is another possibility: this unknown force may not be acting out of goodwill."

"I've considered that. Director Mei, as the director of the space agency, do you think Zhou Yuan's proposed plan to land on a horizontal satellite is truly feasible?"

"After half a month of review and demonstration by experts, they believe that Zhou Yuan's plan is feasible. Through previous observations of the Western Turk spacecraft by military satellites, we found that the Western Turk spacecraft plan is very similar to that proposed by Zhou Yuan, such as orbital acceleration, rocket propulsion, etc."

"Oh, really? That's wonderful. What an outstanding talent. Minister Guo, do you have something to say?"

"Commander, you may not know this, but the two ballistic missiles that hit the two destroyers of the Western Turks were cluster missiles proposed by Zhou Yuan. Also, it was Zhou Yuan who used his own invented hybrid variable-prefix code to notify us that the Western Turks were about to launch an attack on us."

The leader paused, and the five comrades noticed that he looked somewhat displeased.

"Minister Guo, Director Liao, Director Mei, why didn't you tell me about this person sooner?"

Minister Guo and the others lowered their heads. Later, Minister Guo said, "Sir, since you are in charge of the overall situation, we believe that there is no need to trouble you with these specific matters."

"Yes, you've worked hard. We didn't gather enough intelligence on the enemy's mysterious aircraft, otherwise we wouldn't have suffered the innocent loss of ten thousand soldiers. Even so, this battle has boosted our confidence and demonstrated our national power. Otherwise, would those more than 40 heads of state have accepted our invitation?"

"Yes, Chief."

"Actually, I think you all know in your hearts that if it weren't for Zhou Yuan, we wouldn't be sitting on this special train now, but hiding underground in a cave. I just want to know, where is Zhou Yuan now? Minister Guo, please tell me."

"Sir, Zhou Yuan, he..."

"What's up with him?"

"He and Captain Chu Xiaolu, General Chu's daughter, went to infiltrate the Western Kingdom."

"An undercover agent?" The commander was stunned again.

"Yes, Zhou Yuan has successfully infiltrated the National Academy of Sciences of the Western Turks. Captain Chu will protect Zhou Yuan's personal safety."

"But wouldn't it be a waste for Zhou Yuan to be an undercover agent?"

"Sir, before Zhou Yuan left the country, he handed over his manuscripts and notes to us. We are currently organizing various experts to study, verify, and transform the contents of this genius's manuscripts."

"Yes, that's good. It's good that he's staying at the Western Academy of Sciences. I was just worried about their safety, Director Liao?"

"Chief."

"We also want to establish a national academy of sciences. You can be in charge of arranging and organizing it."

"Yes, Chief."

"Comrades, we must remember that this is no longer the era of millet and rifles, but the era of high technology. We must learn from the technology of the Western Turks, and also develop informatization, networking, and intelligence. We must learn from the barbarians' superior techniques to control them, and we must never be complacent and self-righteous again. We must vigorously cultivate talents like Zhou Yuanchu. Only in this way can our Eastern Turks and our Great Tang nation stand tall in the East."

"Yes, Chief."

"Alright, you can go back now and prepare well for the contract and crisis plan for the day after tomorrow."

"Yes." The five men stood up, saluted, and turned to leave.

The leader returned the greeting, closed the door, lit a cigarette, and pondered what to say and do the day after tomorrow.

A seventy-kilometer-long golden warship was hidden in the air above the border between the newly established country and the Eastern Turkic Kingdom.

"My lord, that was close! Why didn't you teleport Mistress Ye Xiaomei to the spaceship?"

The five minutes of suspension during which the drone dropped bombs were naturally done by Nana's clone, a small warship.

“Nana, little bee, I’m not ready to see Xiaomei yet. The Eastern Tu Kingdom’s frontline headquarters has already sent a team to meet Xiaomei and the others, so their safety should be no problem. Now that the leaders of the Eastern Tu Kingdom and the Western Tu Kingdom have made contact, I think the two countries should be in a state of truce for the time being.”

"Big brother is right. What are you planning to do next?"

"I estimate that the two leaders will meet, sign a ceasefire agreement, and have other heads of state witness it. Of course, they will also discuss the global crisis caused by Nana. If that happens, it will be an excellent opportunity."

"Sage, the results of the super brain simulation are the same as what you said."

Chu Xiaolu and Pan Na stared blankly at Zhou Yuan, not understanding what he meant by "perfect opportunity".

"Nana, you stay here and keep watch, paying close attention to Mistress Ye Xiaomei's movements and ensuring her safety. Little Bee, let's return to the flagship."

“Yes, Saint,” Nana’s clone and the little bee replied.

The little bee unfolded into a spaceship, and Zhou Yuan, Chu Xiaolu, and Pan Na entered the spaceship. Before long, the little bee spaceship arrived at the flagship command room.

"Nana, do you record and store every conversation I have with you, Aya, Little Bee, and others?"

"Yes, Sage, this is what you requested in the past, so that you could always consult our conversations, because you believed that the truth might be found in our dialogues."

"That's good. I remember last time when you were explaining the mirror-symmetry transformation of human consciousness, I asked you if my current consciousness could be transformed into past consciousness, and you answered yes, right?"

"Yes, Sage, your consciousness, the consciousness of the four matriarchs, and the consciousness of all humanity on both Earths can be mirrored and symmetrically converted into past consciousness. However, to convert the consciousness of all humanity would require more time and more equipment."

“Hmm, interesting. Nana, there’s no need to convert all human consciousness right now. I command you to convert my consciousness now, mirror-symmetrically, to the consciousness of the past.”

"A sage..." "Brother, what are you doing..."

Chu Xiaolu and Pan Na were shocked. Although they knew more or less about the situation before the consciousness transfer, they still could not accept that their current consciousness would transfer back.

"Xiaolu, Panna, if we want to leave here sooner, I need to unite these two humans from Earth. You don't want me to switch their consciousness back, do you?"

Chu Xiaolu and Pan Na remained silent, exchanging glances. "Big brother, if you need to switch consciousness, we need to switch as well."

"Xiaolu, Panna, there's no need for this between you two right now. Nana, let's get started."

"Yes, sage."

“Sage, I must remind you of something: there are several issues with consciousness transformation.”

Zhou Yuan was stunned, while Chu Xiaolu and Pan Na showed worry on their faces.

"what is the problem?"

"After your consciousness is transformed, you may not recognize the four mistresses now, or you may have to wait many years, like me and the little bee, to recognize you and the mistresses. After your consciousness is transformed, your conscious memory will contain the mistresses from the virtual universe, not the mistresses you know now."

When Chu Xiaolu and Pan Na heard Nana use words like "many years" and "don't know," they turned pale. Nana and the little bee had spent fifty thousand years.

“Sage, Aya and I are researching a method for rapidly switching between two consciousnesses while preserving the original information. We have made some progress, but we cannot yet achieve free switching and restore the original information. However, you will have no problem communicating with humans in language and writing after your consciousness is switched. Aya and I have solved the problem of communication between the two consciousnesses.”

"Nana, I understand. Are there any other questions?"

"Sage, aside from the difference between the two types of consciousness, once you switch to your past consciousness, you will be powerless against the consciousness of present-day humans, such as mind reading, telepathy, and controlling people's thoughts. However, because this world is a remnant of the four-dimensional virtual machine universe, apart from being powerless against the consciousness of present-day humans, once you switch to your past consciousness, your consciousness field will be extremely powerful. You will be able to control objects, become invisible, fly, pass through walls, and even turn the sun on and off, because your past consciousness is very powerful and closely connected to the four-dimensional virtual machine universe."

Zhou Yuan suddenly thought of something, "Nana, I remember you said that in my past consciousness, I always thought that the universe created by the four-dimensional virtual machine was virtual. Now I suddenly realize that maybe the universe created by this virtual machine is real, and our past consciousness is the virtual one!"

Nana seemed stunned for a moment after hearing Zhou Yuan's words, and the holographic virtual body flickered briefly.

"Sage, if that's the case, it doesn't explain how your virtual consciousness was so powerful that it controlled the real sun. Moreover, all human consciousness, whether it's past consciousness before the transformation or present consciousness after the transformation, originates from the quantum matter of this universe. So there's a paradox: unless the universe and consciousness created by this four-dimensional virtual machine are both virtual."

“Nana, what you said later may not be correct. It’s possible that the fifth-dimensional human race is very powerful. They can make some kind of modification to our quantum consciousness, such as adding a certain element. They may even have made some kind of modification to the universe we are in now, so that our consciousness and the material world are real.”

“Sage, what you just said is also possible.”

"Nana, I want to see all the conversations about that series of hypercube structure information again."

"Yes, sage."

Then the holographic screen in the center of the command room began to display the dialogue between Zhou Yuan's past consciousness and the five-dimensional intelligent race and the five-dimensional human race's hypercube structure information.

Zhou Yuan, Nana, Chu Xiaolu, Pan Na, and Little Bee reviewed the dialogue about the hypercube structure. Then, Zhou Yuan repeatedly reviewed the following four segments of hypercube structure information sent by the five-dimensional human race:

"This is how the five-dimensional intelligent race used our human consciousness, through a four-dimensional virtual machine, using us as a prototype, to simulate and create you, and then used you humans to simulate various methods to break through six-dimensional black holes..."

“We have created a real three-dimensional space for you inside this six-dimensional black hole. Your consciousness will undergo a certain mirror symmetry transformation. You will still be you and will live in a normal four-dimensional spacetime universe, not a virtual universe.”

"Then it can only be quantum or photonic consciousness, since your consciousness comes from us."

"As expected of the consciousness of our human race. Goodbye."

Zhou Yuan stared blankly as the four segments of hypercube structure information played repeatedly. The hypercube structures changed back and forth, as if a ghost was hiding within them, leaving Zhou Yuan unable to figure them out.

"Nana, please make sure to write down what I'm about to say and show it to me after my consciousness is mirrored and symmetrically converted, including our previous discussion."

"Yes, sage."

“Zhou Yuan, hello. I am Zhou Yuan after your consciousness mirror symmetry conversion. When you wake up after your consciousness mirror symmetry conversion, you may be surprised that this world is not the same as the one you remember. Explaining these things is time-consuming and laborious. I have asked Nana and Little Bee to tell you everything.”

“Zhou Yuan, I hope you will carefully review all the hypercube structure information you have exchanged with the five-dimensional intelligent race and the five-dimensional human race, especially the four pieces of information declared by the five-dimensional human race below.”

Zhou Yuan pointed to the central holographic spherical screen and froze the four segments of the hypercube structure information of the five-dimensional human race.
