Despite a host of differing opinions, humanity continued to conduct collision experiments as usual, and not only by conducting experiments with a single particle, but also by using Multi-Channel Acceleration System to accelerate multiple particles simultaneously and then cause a large collision.

If one approach doesn't work, then try a chaotic, random collision.

Electrons, Anti-Electron, protons, Anti-Proton, neutrons, and Anti-Neutron are all accelerated together and then swarmed into the collision zone. According to the Research Personnel, since it's a grand unified phenomenon, they need to collide in a comprehensive way to create the background environment for the grand unification of the Three Fundamental Forces.

However, the results of the experiment still left scientists feeling hopeless. Just like the previous experiments, the experimental products and phenomena detected by humans, after data calculation, were found to be the same phenomena that had been detected in previous low-energy collision experiments.

This means that nothing was found.

Human scientists, of course, were unwilling to give up. Clinging to hope, they continued conducting experiments year after year. Single-particle collisions, multi-particle collisions—after one round, the acceleration system parameters were adjusted, and the process was repeated again. In this way, half a century passed quickly.

The scientist's prediction of "results within fifty years" has become a joke among ordinary people. Half a century later, even the scientific teams of the Nair People, Kuntai People, and the Crimson Flame Civilization have lost their fighting spirit.

In particular, many ordinary individuals of the Crimson Flame Civilization believed that Level 3 Civilization Crimson Flame Civilization the limit of individual intelligence, including the Kuntai People, Nair People, and Dog-Headed People. They felt that no matter how many experiments they conducted, nothing would change, so they might as well just enjoy life. After all, the peak technology of Level 3 Civilization was already very advanced, and they were sure they could live to die in this space.

Although they didn't mention humans, they probably just didn't want to cause trouble for themselves; their meaning was quite clear.

As the experiments continued to fail, this pessimistic sentiment spread rapidly throughout the Crimson Flame Civilization. Although the higher-ups of the Crimson Flame Civilization tried to guide public opinion, they were still unable to extinguish this ideological trend.

Other races under the leadership of Human Civilization, such as the Kuntai People and Nair People groups, have also shown some similar signs, and even some signs have appeared in Human Civilization society. However, the Dog-Headed People group continues to believe that humanity can find Grand Unified Theory.

The New Government had no choice but to increase its propaganda efforts, such as popularizing the working principles of the collider and the difficulties of scientific exploration to help ordinary people understand the challenges of scientific exploration. At the same time, it also made public some of the Awakeners' evaluations of the human race in order to increase internal cohesion and increase public support and confidence in the work of scientists.

While ordinary people may not make any real contribution to scientific development, their support is still quite important. At the very least, it can make the overall social environment more positive and progressive, rather than causing a sense of decadence to spread, as is the case within the Crimson Flame Civilization now.

Since the Awakeners received information about the Fallen Civilization, humanity has paid close attention to whether social trends were leaning towards decadence, and has consistently implemented preventative measures and plans in this regard. Of course, these measures are only aimed at humanity itself, not at other civilizations.

Although the Crimson Flame Civilization is essentially a vassal state of humanity, humans do not directly manage its internal affairs, only controlling its high-ranking members. Therefore, internal matters of the Crimson Flame Civilization must be resolved by themselves. Moreover, some human Cosmic Sociology are actually pleased with this Crimson Flame Civilization, as it provides them with another direction for research.

Despite these circumstances, the collision experiments continue.

At a data summary meeting for a collision experiment, Liu Miyan, who has been immersed in this field for two hundred years, spoke on the stage, "The experimental results are not new, but we will not give up. On the contrary, I want to tell everyone that perhaps the problem is not with the experimental equipment itself, but with us. We should be bolder. Maybe the answer is already hidden in the experimental data we have done over the years?"

He paused, then looked at the sea of researchers below. "Perhaps we should change our approach and look at this problem from a different theoretical perspective. I know some people will say that even if we change our approach, we can't find the problem if the experimental data doesn't reveal anything new, but please look here."

Liu Miyan pointed to the large screen behind him, and as he did so, a series of mathematical calculations appeared on the screen, densely covering the entire screen.

Clearly, those were some mathematical calculation processes and results. After this series of mathematical calculations appeared on the big screen, it was immediately synchronized to the Personal Terminal of everyone present.

"This is a calculation in String Theory regarding Cosmic Membrane, oh, Extra Dimension theory, huh? This is a calculation formula for the existence of D0-brane and related arguments."

After a quick glance, researchers on the online mathematics forum quickly recognized what this series of mathematical calculations represented.

"Yes, as you can see, this is a simple mathematical calculation process, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the experimental data." Liu Miyan smiled when he saw that someone had figured it out. "Try to put the data from our recent collision experiments into it and see. Hmm, let me remind you, it's data from a comprehensive collision experiment. The specific parameters to put in are below the post."

Following Liu Miyan's suggestion, some scientists and researchers with strong mathematical skills and expertise in String Theory quickly got to work. Of course, they didn't calculate by hand; they simply set some basic parameters for the input data, and then the calculation process was directly handed over to a Strong Artificial Intelligence system specifically designed for the collision experiment.

Of course, this process is not fast. The time-consuming part is mainly in setting the basic parameters and data by humans. However, thanks to the mature and universal quantum computing, the calculation process can quickly reach a conclusion.

However, after seeing the displayed calculation results, the scientists and researchers were stunned, and some even shouted out in disbelief on the spot.

"Some mass has disappeared? How is that possible? We have verified the conservation of mass and energy for every experimental result and have not found any problem with missing mass or energy. So, using this method, we have obtained different results!"

The scientists, who had different findings, looked up at Liu Miyan. Although they were shocked by the result, they still felt that using computational methods to determine experimental findings was a bit too frivolous.

In fact, not only them, but even Liu Miyan himself thought it was a joke, so after discovering it, he did not directly announce the results, but first raised it at the conference.

One of the two results is always correct, but even though both calculation processes and mathematical procedures are correct, the results are different.

Because spacetime is isotropic, the laws of the universe should be universally applicable.

The situation is different now, which can only mean that either there is a problem with human detection methods, or one of these two methods is wrong.

The entire discovery process is somewhat far-fetched, giving the impression that "if the problem of no new discoveries in the experiment cannot be solved, then the verification process is solved to force a new discovery into the results."
