Quantum Macro Tunneling
Over the next period of time, the crew of the Lyra learned about Dark Matter and the Great Voyage from the Rhomboid Crystal.
The Rhomboid Crystal didn't know where the Precursor had gone, nor did it know the destination of the Great Voyage, but it did know some other things about the Great Voyage.
It just so happens that its original design purpose, or rather the original purpose of the 'Drift Bottle' project, was to transmit these messages to the New Generation Civilization, so the Rhomboid Crystal also speaks its mind without reservation.
However, what it "knows" is all knowledge that humans have never encountered before. Of course, humans cannot master Dark Matter -related technologies simply by listening to these lectures; they only gain a clearer understanding of the distribution of Dark Matter and a deeper understanding of the cosmological model of Dark Matter.
Through the Rhomboid Crystal's narrative, humanity has come to understand that the Milky Way Galaxy is a galaxy enveloped in Dark Matter, and that every life and every civilization within it is intimately connected to Dark Matter, because all civilizations live within Dark Matter Halo without ever realizing it.
Because of its Gravity effect, Dark Matter, like Bright Matter, is concentrated within galaxies. The farther away a civilization is from the Milky Way Galaxy, the thinner the Dark Matter becomes, making it more difficult for the Great Voyage civilizations to obtain resources.
The Rhomboid Crystal tell us that when the Precursor led their civilizations away from the Milky Way Galaxy, their first stop was likely the nearby Andromeda Galaxy. Of course, the Andromeda Galaxy was much farther from the Milky Way Galaxy Thirty Billion Years Ago, making the journey there far more difficult.
As for which direction the Precursor went after arriving in the Andromeda Galaxy, the Rhomboid Crystal didn't know. Humanity didn't pursue this question further, because they understood that the Great Voyage didn't necessarily have to reach the Andromeda Galaxy; it depended on the final destination.
That said, although the Rhomboid Crystal did not know the final destination of the Great Voyage undertaken by the Precursor with almost the entire Advanced Civilizations of the Milky Way Galaxy, his descriptions made humanity realize that this the Great Voyage was truly the Great Voyage, and its destination was far farther than imagined.
It doesn't end with traveling from the Milky Way Galaxy to the Andromeda Galaxy; it will go much further, much farther.
Listening to the Rhomboid Crystal's description of the Great Voyage, Yue Yuan couldn't help but imagine scenes of a Great Fleet embarking on an expedition. He seemed to see an unimaginably vast Great Fleet, a Great Fleet that had gathered the highest level of power in the entire Milky Way Galaxy. The Precursor built spaceships to carry each civilization that had not yet reached level six, coordinating all the high-level civilizations in the Milky Way Galaxy together, uniting with countless Level Six Civilization, and embarking on a grand and magnificent the Great Voyage.
Driven by a sliver of hope, an unimaginably Great Fleet departed the Milky Way Galaxy, venturing into the vast Starry Sky and heading towards the unknown. They traveled from one isolated island to another, crossing galaxies upon galaxies. There, they experienced thrilling adventures, encountering unknown entities, Unknown Civilization, and possibly other the Great Voyage. They surveyed the stars, forging their way through Braving Thorns and Thistles to their destination, seeking only a glimmer of hope amidst despair.
"It was such a good era!" Everyone couldn't help but sigh after listening to the rhombus crystal's statement.
According to the Rhomboid Crystal, Thirty Billion Years Ago, Quantum Entanglement could be used for Hyperdistance Communication, which made the cosmic environment relatively better. Although there were wars, they were not as frequent in the Low-level Civilization as they are now. Nowadays, the Low-level Civilization are almost at the point where they can meet each other at any time.
The reason is the communication problem. Thirty Billion Years Ago, Quantum Entanglement Hyperdistance Communication was already mastered by the time civilizations had mastered Controlled Nuclear Fusion and set foot in space. This made communication in the early stages of Low-level Civilization not as difficult as it is now, and made communication between different civilizations smoother. Although there were still communication barriers, at least there was no chain of suspicion caused by the information barrier of the speed of light as there is now.
After a moment of deep emotion, one of the scientists among them asked curiously, "May I ask how you came to our spaceship, Lyra? Although our civilization is not advanced, I am certain that our Lyra is completely sealed. Did you come from a higher dimension?"
This was a question the scientist had clearly been holding back for a long time. He hadn't dared to ask it, but seeing that the Rhomboid Crystal seemed to know everything, he couldn't help but ask.
Other scholars who were also surprised by the way the Rhomboid Crystal entered the Lyra also turned their attention to it; clearly, they were just as curious.
The Rhomboid Crystal seemed unconcerned by this question, which was clearly unrelated to the Great Voyage. Instead, it chuckled, mimicking human laughter, and then countered, "Higher dimensions? Which dimension are you referring to?"
"Four-dimensional, Four-Dimensional Jump, is it Four-Dimensional Jump technology? Did you come in from the fourth spatial dimension?" the scientist who had just asked asked excitedly. He felt that only this technology could explain the appearance of Rhomboid Crystal.
However, the Rhomboid Crystal's answer was unexpected.
"Hahaha, Four-Dimensional Space? No, we don't have that kind of technology. Thirty Billion Years Ago, not even a Level Six Civilization possessed the Four-Dimensional Space jump technology you imagine. Aren't you disappointed?"
The Rhomboid Crystal said, "Alright, even if I said yes, it would only be a source of amusement for you. Thinking about these things at your level is too far-fetched, and you can only think about them; it's not very useful. You should develop step by step, in a down-to-earth manner. When your technology develops to a certain level, you will naturally understand the difficulty of the Four-Dimensional Space jump technology you imagine."
"Alright, let me put it this way: our civilization doesn't have this technology. The fact that Level Six Civilization in the Milky Way Galaxy didn't have this technology Thirty Billion Years Ago doesn't mean that all Level Six Civilization don't have it, because some races are particularly intelligent in certain aspects. As for how I got into your spaceship, well, you don't need to use your words, perhaps it can be called Quantum Macro Tunneling Technology."
"Quantum Macro Tunneling?!"
"Yes," the Rhomboid Crystal said proudly, "This is the Characteristic Technology of our civilization, one of the assets that made us stand out in the Milky Way Galaxy Thirty Billion Years Ago. Do you think other Level Six Civilization are willing to follow us on our the Great Voyage instead of going on their own? It's because our Characteristic Technology makes them feel safer."
"This universe is amazing. Among life forms born in the same environment, there are always some that have a more easy and thorough understanding of certain scientific directions. This depth and thoroughness is even beyond the comprehension of other life forms of the same level, no matter what they do."
Individuals within our civilization possess unparalleled comprehension in the field of Quantum Macro Tunneling, thus elevating our civilization to a level in which other civilizations at the same level cannot comprehend. Civilizations possessing Characteristic Technology are invariably great and powerful.
