Arguments Concerning the Sea of Quantum
"Dr. Mei, Dr. Einstein, Dr. Mobius, and all the councilors, we should all be very aware that the Herrscher that appear in the future will only be more powerful than those the Present, and the pace of Honkai is accelerating. The power that the Fusion Warrior rely on is ultimately limited, and the areas they can protect are ultimately limited. Even if we disperse all the existing Fusion Warrior, we cannot protect all of humanity in the world." A researcher in a lab coat said to the high-ranking figures on the screen. "Like the Far East, after the Third Honkai Eruption, it has been constantly Honkai by the Honkai. Even though we have continuously won victories in our battles against the Herrscher, now, the area in the Far East the Present habitable for humans is no more than 20%! (MISSING) And Australia, after being burned two-thirds of the way, even today, with the full efforts of the Fourth Divine Key, it has only barely recovered a quarter of what was destroyed by the Seventh Herrscher."
"We understand all that you've said. So, Dr. Yafan, what are you trying to say?" Dr. Einstein asked.
"The Sea of Quantum!" Yaphan said. "At this stage, we have learned that the Sea of Quantum has a sufficient energy supply, and moreover, enough energy to support the construction of countless 'slices' of the Intrinsic World. The Titan Unit are at a disadvantage when dealing with the Honkai, largely because our energy is insufficient to support the operation of a large number of Titan Unit, and the Titan Unit themselves have a very low utilization rate of Honkai Energy. In addition, because they are driven by Honkai Energy, every time Great Honkai occurs, a portion of the Titan Unit will go berserk due to the Honkai Energy Corrosion become our enemies! However, as long as we use the power of the Sea of Quantum, this will not be a problem! Dr. Einstein, the Mu Continent has also conducted research on the Sea of Quantum, hasn't it? We can completely utilize the power of the Sea of Quantum to give humanity more hope in the fight against the Honkai."
"Mu Continent did consider using the power of the Sea of Quantum to fight against the Honkai," Lionel said, resting his chin on his hands. "I also reviewed the documents from that time. Now that you, Dr. Afaen, have brought up this point again, I will ask the question I already asked back then: Dr. Yafan, is the power of the Sea of Quantum truly something that humanity can fully analyze and control?"
"Congressman Lionel, please forgive my bluntness, but when the Fusion Warrior Project was met with so much skepticism, didn't you firmly stand by its side? Weren't the risks of the Fusion Warrior Project just as enormous back then?" Yaphan placed her hand on her chest, speaking with some emotion. "If we don't try, how can humanity gain a more intuitive understanding of the Sea of Quantum? Our research on the Sea of Quantum absolutely cannot be limited to having Dr. Su use the Second Divine Key to observe the operation of the World Bubble!"
"However, the Fusion Warrior Project hasn't been widely implemented the Present. Dr. Yafan, you should be well aware of the reasons for this, shouldn't you?" Lionel said. "The Fusion Warrior Project has indeed greatly alleviated the current pressure on humanity, and I can be proud and grateful for the timely advancement of the Fusion Warrior Project. However, Dr. Yafan, your theory proposes that in the future, the energy of the Sea of Quantum should be widely distributed in human society. In this way, if the power of the Sea of Quantum poses a threat to humanity, humanity will also lose many effective means of counterattack."
"I agree with Councilor Lionel's view," Dr. Einstein began. "Back on the Mu Continent, Councilor Lionel's many opinions were quite prescient. These are opinions I expressed as a former colleague of Councilor Lionel. Now, here is my personal opinion. I agree with your idea of further deepening your research on the Sea of Quantum. However, before we have even fully understood what Honkai is, how can we guarantee that rashly using the power of the Sea of Quantum to fight Honkai is not a case of using one tiger to devour another?"
"But everything has to start somewhere, right?" Yafaen said. "Dr. Einstein, you also said that we shouldn't refuse to conduct further research on the Sea of Quantum. This is also the only way we the Present. Humanity's Honkai against the Present has become too reliant on Honkai Energy ... Of course, I also know that the number of Titan Unit means we can't use any other energy source besides Honkai Energy to power them. But the Honkai are our enemy. Humanity and the Honkai cannot coexist. If we continue to use Honkai Energy on such a large scale, who can guarantee that there won't be any catastrophic events in the future?"
Yafaen took a breath and then said, "The soldiers' weapons are powered by Honkai Energy, the Titan Unit that fight Honkai Beast and maintain city order are also powered by Honkai Energy, and our Fusion Warrior have fused the foes of high-threat Honkai Beast capable of causing large-scale destruction into their bodies... Councilor Lionel, can't your concerns about the power of the Sea of Quantum also be applied to the Present?"
Lionel remained silent. Using Honkai Energy to fight Honkai was already the consensus of everyone at this stage. As Afaen said, when Honkai occurs, those Titan Unit powered by Honkai Energy can easily become accomplices in the spread of Honkai. However, it is not only Titan Unit that will be affected. Other machines that use non- Honkai Energy as their power source will also automatically convert to Honkai Energy as their power source after being Honkai by Corrosion.
Mu Continent had already researched this. Machines powered by Honkai Energy extracted from the Sea of Quantum are almost unaffected by Honkai. However, in contrast, Honkai Beast have an extremely strong desire to destroy these machines...
Therefore, scientists on the Mu Continent have made a conjecture about the Sea of Quantum and the Intrinsic World: the Sea of Quantum and the Intrinsic World are like the relationship between antimatter and matter. After the Big Bang, antimatter and matter coexisted. In the end, the matter world gained the upper hand and formed the Intrinsic World. The antimatter world was defeated and lost the opportunity and ability to give birth to life. Finally, it formed a world that is opposite to the Intrinsic World.
When antimatter collides with matter, they annihilate each other. So, if the power of the Sea of Quantum is overused, will the Intrinsic World have the same effect?
While the power of the Sea of Quantum might indeed be able to combat the Honkai, the final result is quite likely to be the mutual annihilation of both sides.
Dr. Einstein also fell silent. As a formal researcher, she knew and understood more than Lionel. She recalled a Tianwen fact she had encountered before: in the long period before life arose on Earth, both Mars and Venus had the conditions for life to arise, especially Venus. Hundreds of millions of years ago, Venus had better conditions for life to arise than Earth, but now Venus is a hell on earth, without any signs of civilization.
One reason Dr. Einstein is wary of using the power of the Sea of Quantum is this: she is very worried that the current state of Venus is the result of the annihilation effect on the Intrinsic World caused by the excessive use of the power of the Sea of Quantum by the civilization that once existed on it... This is not impossible.
After all, humans have already discovered ancient artifacts dating back hundreds of thousands of years on Earth, and even the ultra-ancient artifacts on the moon have not yet been fully deciphered by the Present.
However, human history makes no mention of those distant, ancient civilizations, as if they left nothing behind except for their ruins.
News about these ruins, especially after they were unearthed, was quickly suppressed and covered up by the Fire Moth, eventually becoming something only high-ranking officials and relevant researchers could know.
Dr. Einstein harbored a terrifying conjecture: perhaps human civilization... just as the Mayan Prophecy, existed more than once, but each one was completely destroyed in various catastrophes, and then, over tens of thousands of years, awaited the cycle of all things.
The Present state of Venus may be due to an annihilation effect between the Intrinsic World and the Sea of Quantum, which has even deprived it of the chance of a spiritual reincarnation.
Therefore, Dr. Einstein, like Lionel, maintained a very cautious attitude towards utilizing the power of the Sea of Quantum, and was even reluctant to use it even though the civilization was on the verge of destruction.
The destruction of Wen-Cai was terrible, but what was even more terrible was that the opportunity for the next Wen-Cai to be born was also taken away.
Perhaps their civilization will ultimately fail, but they can still do their best to leave something for the next civilization, just like the ruins left by the previous civilization. In that case, even if their own civilization cannot defeat the Honkai, then the next one, and the one after that, through the relay of countless civilizations, humanity will surely defeat the Honkai.
This is the only thing Dr. Einstein is confident about.
She knew very well that before the time of reincarnation arrived, there would inevitably be a cataclysmic disaster, and according to the latest research, among the Herrscher, there might truly be a Herrscher who could be called "The Finality".
He is the final apostle of Honkai and the final judge of human civilization.
The "Stigmata Project" of the Fire Moth Mu Continent the "Survivor Project" of the Mu Continent both illustrate one point: even though humanity has not yet shown any disadvantage in the fight against the Honkai, those who are fighting against the Honkai have already begun to seek a way out for the next dawn.
After all, the higher you stand, the clearer you see, and the clearer you see, the more fear and powerlessness you feel.
Mobius remained silent throughout, her fingertips lightly tapping the armrest of her chair. She already knew the reason for the destruction of the Venusian civilization from Zhu Yufeng. Although the main reason for the destruction of the Venusian civilization was that the civilization relied too much on digital technology, leading to its defeat Herrscher the Herrscher of Corrosion, a Digital Life, based on her research on the Finality in her previous and current lives, the Finality was the one who issued the final judgment and carried out the cycle of reincarnation for the civilization when it was destroyed. However... the Finality did not appear in the end, and Venus became completely barren, losing its qualification to give birth to life.
If Earth's civilization can undergo cycles of reincarnation and iteration, then why did Venus's civilization completely perish?
The answer was always obvious in the information Zhu Yufeng provided: Vita, at the last moment, fully unleashed the power of the Quantum Sea, which clashed with the power of Honkai, creating an effect similar to "annihilation".
Although Zhu Yufeng also said that even when Vita was the only one left after the destruction of the Ming Dynasty, Honkai Beast would still appear on Venus, in any case, the complete destruction of the Venus Ming Dynasty was absolutely related to the Quantum Sea.
With the example of Venusian civilization, Mobius was even more averse to using the power of the Quantum Sea. Furthermore, Zhu Yufeng himself stated that as Herrscher, he felt an innate hostility towards the power of the Quantum Sea. This undoubtedly serves as further evidence that the complete destruction of Venusian civilization was due to the Quantum Sea.
Although humanity's exploration of Venus is still insufficient, Mobius's understanding of Venus is actually limited to Zhu Yufeng's descriptions. However, she knows very well that Zhu Yufeng has no reason to lie or make up stories, after all, he, as a "time traveler," has truly appeared before her and sacrificed so much to save everyone's fate...
Why should we doubt him?
Anyone can be suspected, but... probably only Elysia and Zhu Yufeng, those two freaks, should never be suspected.
Compared to the quantum sea, Mobius was actually more concerned with Mostima's so-called "previous life" memories. Was that evidence of the existence of the previous civilization? According to Mostima's account, the events that happened in the "previous civilization" were similar to their experiences in their previous life. For example, if Zhu Yufeng hadn't come to this world, it would have been a perfect "repetition of the same mistakes."
This shouldn't be the case... According to Zhu Yufeng, after the destruction of the civilization he was in, it did pass on hope to the next civilization, and top-tier Fusion Warrior like Kevin survived to guide the next civilization. So why did the previous civilization in his city leave nothing but ruins?
Was it the previous Ming Dynasty "Kevin" who was wiped out when they fought against the Finality Dynasty?
The information Mostima provided not only failed to solve the many problems at hand, but actually made the issues more complicated...
"However... although the power of the Quantum Sea is not easy to utilize, research on the Quantum Sea is indeed indispensable." Mobius thought to himself, "Researching the Quantum Sea is essentially to help us better understand the Intrinsic World we live in. Perhaps this is the only merit of Afaen's suggestion."
Mobius thought to herself, then turned her gaze to the image of Mei, now waiting for Mei to express her thoughts and then give her affirmation.
After all, Mei couldn't possibly borrow the power of the Quantum Sea.
As expected, May spoke up quickly, "Dr. Yafan, Dr. Einstein and I are in agreement. We should greatly expand our research on quantum sea magic, but we should always maintain a very cautious attitude towards using the power of quantum sea magic."
