I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 1537: The Completion of Star Gates

The red sunset glow reflected on the side of Sun Jiao’s face.

Her eyes were a little blurry, as she gazed in the direction of Penglai on top of the returning yacht.

“What are you thinking about?” Jiang Chen walked beside her, leaned against the railing, then smiled.

Her hair swayed along with the sea breeze and her eyes continued to focus on the outline of the city that gradually disappeared on the horizon. The corner of her lips turned up slightly.

“I’m thinking... what the rest of the world looks like.”

“I can’t answer you. Even the places I’ve been to are just the tip of the iceberg.” Jiang Chen chuckled as he looked out at the clownfish that swam below them, “But when all this is over, I plan to go take a look.”

“Really? Remember to take me with you then!”

“Of course,” Jiang Chen smiled, “How could I leave you behind.”

Satisfied with this answer, Sun Jiao smiled.

In brisk steps, she hopped away from the railing while the hem of her lotus leaf skirt was blown to the side by the sea breeze.

“Thank you,” she stopped at the bow, turned around, and with a smile that seemed eternal, she gazed at Jiang Chen, “I am really happy with today.”

For a moment, Jiang Chen felt that her smile glowed.

Because it was so dazzling.

“Initiate.”

In the Celestial Trade Space Command Center, followed by the emotionless countdown, the staff sitting in front of the command terminal simultaneously pressed down the start button.

At the same time, the two giant star gates a few kilometers away suddenly emitted blinding white light, just like new stars that were born, and illuminated the empty universe. The white light then disappeared instantly, and two tunnels as thin as membranes were launched from the two circles into the distance.

After two months, the highway from the Earth-Moon system to the Mars system was finally completed.

The four sets of star gates connected the Earth-Moon system with the Mars system. Regardless of the celestial movement of the Earth-Moon system and Mars, if the four sets of star gates operated under stable conditions, the two one-way highways would shorten the flight from Celestial City and Heavenly Palace City to the extreme.

Passengers going to Mars only needed to rest in the hibernation chamber to complete the boring journey in time dilation. For the outside world, the flight that previously took a week to half a month were shortened to three days to one week due to the time dilation effect in the neutrino tunnel.

From the perspective of space engineering, combined with the achievement in the different eras, this completion was a miracle in the history of human civilization.

From the perspective of hundreds of millions of kilometers in distance, even if the deviation was a rounding error in the decimal place, it could potentially result in an error of tens of millions of kilometers. However, the error was minimized to the limit through repeated experimentations. It was precisely because of Celestial Trade engineers’ dedication that enabled the four sets of star gates to operate in stable condition.

The later generations also gave high praises to the discovery of the “time expansion effect in the neutrino tunnel” and the completion of the stellar system highway.

A century later, when a certain writer recalled this period of history, he wrote in the book, “The giant double-ringed gate stood in the boundless space, and the creamy light path outlined a straight trajectory. I imagined it to be the ultimate invention in space technology, and our civilization was connected. Undoubtedly, it was a great miracle in the history of civilization, a triumphal arch leading to victory. Just like we once conquered the sky, we conquered the solar system...”

Compared with the art community that only responded after many years, the reaction of the press community could be described as a collective orgasm.

Although Celestial Trade always made headlines from time a time, to the point where many people were numb to the breakthroughs, the creation of star gates, which only existed in science fiction, were made into a reality by Celestial Trade. This feat astounded everyone!

“An epoch-defining technology, a miracle in the history of civilization!” – People Daily

“While we are still observing the ghost, the cunning hunter has already caught the ghost’s tail.” – Berlin Morning Post

“Facts have proved that the neutrino telescope on Lake Baikal had become a joke. If you want to observe neutrinos up close, it is better to take a flight from Celestial City to Heavenly Palace City. This will not only save you a lot of money where you don’t even know how it got wasted but also save our scientists from frowning at the stars.” – Moscow News

On a talk show on CBS, the host joked with the audience when it came to a segment on recent news.

“While our enterprises are still studying how to lay the foundation for the Bering Strait Tunnel, our opponent has already built a road to Mars. I don’t hate Mr. Pence at all, although the people from T State must hate his guts. Thankfully, before ending that farce, Mr. Pence did not make the situation worse.”

The shockwave was not only sent through news media, a larger earthquake also erupted in the physics community.

Neutrino had always been a subject of attention in the physics community, and it was considered the particle with the most promise to break the limit of the speed of light. Otherwise, when the Italian National Laboratory of Gran Sasso found that the neutrino beam was faster than light by six kilometers per second, it would not have shocked the entire scientific community...

Although it was ultimately discovered that the result was actually caused by errors due to the loose connection of the optical cable between the computer and the GPS device.

“Neutrinos can allow you to enter another world, the reason is very simple, it has little interaction with our visible world.” Well-known physicist Patrick Huber once said a long time ago.

And now, this guess was confirmed.

It was just that no one thought that this kind of ghost-like particles actually allowed humans to enter a world they had never touched before.

A time dilated world.

Unlike other confidential projects, after the completion of the star gates, Celestial Trade did not conceal the information from the outside world, but rather generously disclosed all information except engineering details and technical data. For example, neutrinos in a certain state could cause time dilation, such as how much time could be saved by using star gate technology for interstellar travel, and so on.

But as for the more in-depth information, related to the knowledge left by the Gaia civilization, Celestial Trade did not go into details.

While they released a lot of information, none of it was useful at all.

The entire physics community was fascinated by star gates, and countless emails requesting cooperative research flew to Coro University, Celestial Trade, and even Jiang Chen’s personal email like snowflakes. Of course, the fate of these emails could be easily imagined. Jiang Chen didn’t read them at all and just asked Lilith to reply all and delete them.

Although the perseverance of these people certainly moved him...

But sorry, it was not the right time yet.
