Alfred calmed down after a few minutes because Lu Yuanming asked him a question.
"Can you still contact the physical world?"
Alfred was speechless, and after a long time he actually started crying.
When Alfred calmed down, Lu Yuanming called the managers in the organization...
It also made him strange to say that these white people and a few black people themselves refused to obey anyone, except for guns and violence, but once they integrated into this organization, they immediately followed those who claimed to be his disciples, and now the organization Apart from the original disciples, the only exception among the management staff was Charlie.
At this time, Lu Yuanming took his disciples and Charlie to face Alfred in the vault.
Alfred was eating and drinking at this time, taking a mouthful of bread and a mouthful of mineral water. After eating two pieces of bread and a whole bottle of mineral water, he patted his chest and said: "I almost starved to death... damn MXG people, Nader’s original wall should be completely erected!!”
Father Edward smiled and said: "Mr. Alfred, would you like some more?"
Alfred shook his head and said: "No, the supplies are hard to come by... So now, are you willing to tell me what the scam was? Let me guess first... You went outside the city!? Then Did you come back alive from the outside? And you were lucky enough to encounter the tombs of other civilizations and find tools that can be used in the dark matter world, right!?"
The amount of information in these words was so great that everyone looked confused. They looked at Lu Yuanming, who also spread his hands inexplicably. I had no idea what Alfred meant by what he said.
In Alfred's opinion, this appearance of everyone was a kind of deception. He immediately said to Edward dissatisfied: "Father, we are old friends. We have been friends for more than thirty years, and you won't even ask me for help." Concealing and deceiving, right?”
Father Edward immediately smiled bitterly, made a cross on his chest, and then said to Alfred: "Mr. Alfred, I swear by my faith, by the Father in heaven, by Jesus Christ, by Michael Saiyan came to bear witness to my oath. Everything I said was witnessed by my own eyes and is indeed true. The person beside me is the Messiah in the last days, and he is also..."
Alfred directly waved his hand and interrupted him: "About faith and religion, we have discussed it too many times in the past few decades. You know that my family has been Puritans for generations, and I am also a person who will come to church every week. devout believers, but we have all come to conclusions about the existence of gods. Gods exist in a spiritual sense, and so does faith. This gives us morality and a destination, so there is nothing wrong with it, but what we are discussing now is all The survival of humanity and human civilization!”
Then Alfred said directly to Lu Yuanming: "Asian boy, I know you are the one who was pushed out by them, but you are definitely not the one who made the decision. Uh, I guess it was because you are tall and strong, and you look like Powerful and scary, that's why I pushed you out, right? But now, please let the person or people behind your scenes come out and have a good talk with me about the next thing. I'm not kidding you about this. It’s about the survival of our species and human civilization.”
Lu Yuanming smiled bitterly, and stopped the angry disciple and Charlie who was about to draw his gun. He walked up the first two steps and said, "Sir, let me meet you. Lu Yuanming is from Z country. He is either Chinese or Asian. People from country Z.”
Alfred was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Black household...it doesn't matter, the green card is easy to get, as long as you can..."
At this point, Alfred smiled bitterly and said: "We don't distinguish between these now, you can continue talking."
Lu Yuanming told Alfred everything about his origin, his abilities, and everything he had told Father Edward and the others.
The more Alfred listened, the weirder his face became. When he heard everything, he said directly: "Impossible, you are lying, how is this possible? The drama of traveling through time and space has come, what did you say your original time and space is? when?"
"I became a vegetative state in July 2023, and then I was trapped in the darkness for at least five or six months. I don't know the specific day of the month when I traveled through time." Lu Yuanming said sincerely.
"No...wait a minute, five or six months from July 2023..."
Alfred showed a cautious expression on his face, and then he looked at Lu Yuanming carefully. Lu Yuanming still looked at each other with frank eyes. Alfred immediately said: "That little...Mr. Lu, you Next time I return to the mortal world, can I see it live?"
"Okay." Lu Yuanming said with a smile.
At this time, Father Edward stepped forward and said: "Mr. Alfred, is it time for you to answer our questions now? Or do you think those are so-called state secrets and telling them will cause social unrest or something?" , still keeping silent here?"
Alfred shook his head and said: "There are more than a hundred people here, and there is some social unrest... It happened in late January 2024. I remember when I learned the news, it was January 31 It’s day…”
Lu Yuanming's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He instinctively felt that what Alfred was going to say next was very important to him.
"In the Super-Kamiokande detector of Xiaoli, they discovered dark matter." Alfred continued.
Alfred saw the puzzled expressions on everyone's face, and he said indifferently: "I didn't know what it was before, but I found out after reading the information that it was a scientific instrument placed one thousand meters underground in the mine. The device contains 50,000 tons of pure water and various cutting-edge observation instruments. This is a scientific instrument used to detect neutrinos. In late January 2024, researchers there reported that they It’s possible that dark matter has been found.”
"Wait a minute." Ang immediately raised his hand and said: "Mr. Alfred, as far as I know, dark matter is still a theoretical hypothesis so far, right? There are several currently known properties of dark matter. , except for gravity, dark matter basically does not interact with other forces, and almost does not interact with photons. Second, dark matter is highly stable, and is even considered to not decay, decompose, or change, and the above two points already represent dark matter It is almost impossible to explore at our current scientific level. This is actually a fire dragon in the garage. Even if there is indeed dark matter captured by the Super-Kamiokande detector, it is completely impossible for them to discover it."
Alfred showed a wry smile and said: "Yes, it should have been like this, but the researchers there discovered dark matter due to an accident, and also discovered something that can interact with dark matter..."
"What?!" Ang immediately became interested and asked hurriedly.
Alfred said while recalling: "In late January 2024, more than thirty people who were young people met to commit collective suicide in a wild place, and that wild place happened to be a short distance from the Super-Kamiokande detector. Not far away, researchers saw souls for the first time, and we also knew for the first time that souls, no, it should be the souls of only intellectual beings that can interact with dark matter."
Alfred paused and waited for everyone to absorb the information before he said: "Do you know what an amazing discovery this is? Not to mention dark matter and so on, this itself is the great discovery of the century. If it is true, That is enough to push science that has been stagnant for half a century forward by a large margin. The key is the soul. Do you know how many billionaires in the world are dying? Do you know how many people in power long for longevity or even immortality? You guys Do you know how much we want to know what the afterlife is like when we all discover that death is inevitable?”
"So, at the end of January 2024, we brought the entire Super-Kamiokande detector back to the United States intact and placed it in a secret underground research base in New York to conduct various research on dark matter and the soul."
Having said this, Alfred fell into a kind of trance. After a long time, he suddenly asked: "Everyone, do you really think that the soul should exist?"
Father Edward said: "There is evidence now, so I have no need to doubt it."
Many other people also nodded in approval. Only Ang took a careful look at Lu Yuanming and said, "I personally feel that the existence of the soul itself is unreasonable. First of all, we humans can think because we have a brain." The carrier of thinking, no matter where the concept of 'I' comes from, at least without the hardware of a biological supercomputer like the brain, we humans cannot even think. After becoming a soul, the carrier of our thinking Where? And where does the energy consumed by thinking come from? This in itself is illogical.”
Alfred smiled and said, "What you said is exactly the same as what Dr. Tang Zhe'an said."
"Tang Zhe'an...are you talking about the super math genius who appeared briefly ten years ago and is said to have an unprecedented IQ of 260? Didn't he have a car accident?" Ang asked strangely.
Alfred's smile froze, and he coughed and said: "Let's continue talking about the soul... So theoretically, the soul should not exist, unless when a person dies, all his information will be in the form of a human being. It can be reconstructed from fundamental particles that have not yet been discovered and cannot be detected, and this particle cannot be a single type, but is similar to the particle model of the material world that we are familiar with. Only in this way can the theoretical theory of the soul be made Something appears..."
Angjiu said thoughtfully: "So, the moment a person dies, the person's soul leaves the body, and then enters the dark matter world from the material world. Then isn't this dark matter world the world after death?"
"No!"
Alfred sneered and said: "Through that piece of dark matter, our research found that there is no dark matter on the earth before January 2024! Everyone is dead when they die. Even if they have souls, they will be separated from the body. It disappears in an instant and completely dissipates! Only through that piece of dark matter and approaching within 10,000 meters of its surroundings can the soul appear and enter the dark matter level."
Everyone looked at each other, wondering why Alfred showed a sneer but fearful expression, and Alfred said again: "And through the study of this piece of dark matter, we found that dark matter interacts with the soul rather than , it is better to say that it interacts with consciousness. Through the existence of dark matter, we have even uncovered the source of the observer effect in quantum mechanics, unlocked the secret of double-slit interference, etc. At the same time, many rich people who learned the news began to Secret investment, and then hope that after death, the soul can be transformed into the dark matter level... Everything is developing in a good direction, and all of this only took one year. Just when we are planning to make great plans to make the United States great again, then The lump of dark matter became larger, and at the same time we found traces of dark matter in many places in New York, then in many places in the United States, and then in many places around the world. At the same time, those things began to appear..."
Lu Yuanming immediately asked: "Is it a curse? Are there those unkillable monsters?"
Alfred was silent for a long time, then nodded, and then he suddenly asked: "You should all know the Fermi Paradox, right?"
Only Lu Yuanming, Ang, Father Edward, Dr. Kesuen, and Teacher Martha were present and nodded, while the others looked at a loss.
Lu Yuanming also said: "Where are they? Is this them?"
"Yes, that's it." Alfred said blankly: "The universe has been born for so long, more than 13 billion years. During this period, it only took us humans a few hundred thousand years to reach the point where we can launch the universe. Spaceship civilizations, those aliens who were born hundreds of millions or billions of years before us, why haven’t they come to Earth yet?”
"The answer is already out, because as all intelligent civilizations develop, as the number of deaths increases, more dark matter will appear on their planets. When a critical point is reached, the entire planet will , even the surrounding planets that have been colonized, or the remnants of the race trying to escape in spaceships, will all be dragged into the dark matter level due to the resonance of the soul."
"And this kind of pulling in is also pulling in all known matter. I don't know if you have read the book Three-Body Problem. It is a Z country science fiction novel that I like very much. It describes an alien civilization. The weapon, called two-dimensional foil, can reduce the dimensionality of the three-dimensional world into a two-dimensional world. This is an irreversible dimensionality reduction, and it will spread to the entire universe at the speed of light. Unfortunately, we will inevitably face civilization when we encounter it. The 'two-way foil', the dimensionality reduction of dark matter caused by death, also spreads towards the entire universe at the speed of light."
Everyone was dumbfounded after hearing this, and even those who didn't understand science felt cold all over. At this moment, Ang suddenly said loudly: "The universe is empty and super empty!?"
Alfred was stunned for a moment and nodded: "Yes, Dr. Tang Zhe'an did say these words."
Ang immediately explained to Lu Yuanming who still didn't understand: "There are several hypotheses about how our universe was born. The most successful hypothesis is the Big Bang. No matter which hypothesis is followed, as long as the universe is natural was born, then the stars and galaxies must be arranged according to natural laws in the universe. Although they are not absolutely uniform, it is unlikely that there will be absolute density and absolute voids. But in fact, there are many voids in our universe. , and there are so-called super voids. The largest one I remember is a space of more than one billion light years with nothing in it, and there is not a single star in it. Such a situation is simply impossible to occur, unless..."
Lu Yuanming took over Ang's words and said, "Unless everything there has been turned into dark matter, right?"
Alfred waited until everyone fell silent, then he said: "And this is the future fate of us humans and human civilization, as well as the entire earth, the solar system, and the galaxy. From the material world to the dark matter world, everything will …”
"Disappeared, human beings died, human civilization died, and then... the universe also died."
