Cooper quickly went up to him.
The elevator was huge and was usually used to transport mecha parts. All fifty of them, plus Jeff and Finch, stood inside without feeling crowded at all.
Mako Mori pressed the floor button next to the elevator door, and then she felt a sense of weightlessness as the elevator rapidly descended.
The enclosed space fell silent instantly.
It took almost a full minute for the elevator to stop.
Mako Mori led everyone outside.
Follow the signs on the ground and do not enter any enclosed rooms.
At Mako Mori's prompting, Amelia followed behind her, becoming the second to exit the elevator.
This is an extremely large underground space, surrounded by steel walls, tall and enclosed yet not oppressive.
Because this place is just too big.
Even if you sent a Crimson Typhoon, it might be able to walk upright.
Amelia led the others behind Mako Mori, and after a series of rigorous checks, the group entered the core of the underground.
Spacetime Tunnel.
At the very center of the base's underground, a Spacetime Tunnel with an opening tens of meters high stands before everyone, resembling a black mountain.
On one side of the mountain, you can see a huge pipe extending to the other side of the tunnel, with several large Chinese characters written on it.
Out of curiosity, Amelia asked Mako Mori the meaning of those Chinese characters:
"Contains communication cable; damage is prohibited."
"It contains cables used for time-space communication."
In addition to the protection of the pipes, there were also a large number of armed soldiers stationed every ten steps, guarding the vicinity closely. Even if Amelia took two steps closer, she would be severely reprimanded by those soldiers.
Mako Mori smiled and comforted Amelia, saying that it was normal.
After this period of rectification, the management of Communications Tunnel has been put on the right track, and the situation where one could pass through Communications Tunnel and reach other dimensions simply by scanning their face is no longer possible.
Currently, access to these tunnels requires multiple levels of approval.
This is not only for security reasons, but also to protect spatiotemporal communication and ensure the interconnection of various spatiotemporal spaces.
With Mako Mori's help, Amelia and Jeff's groups completed the identity verification together, confirming that they were all members of the Mutual Aid Society.
Both groups of people were then allowed to pass.
After passing through the Communications Tunnel of No. 4 Spacetime, the group entered another enclosed space.
The space here is also vast, the only thing not...
What's the same here is that there are seven entrances to Spacetime Tunnel, and there are also many communication cables, but those cables are all hidden underground, and only warning lines prohibiting damage can be seen on the surface.
Each Spacetime Tunnel entrance is marked with signs indicating the path to No. 0 Spacetime, No. 1 Spacetime, No. 3 Spacetime, and so on.
Amelia looked around, but No. 2 Spacetime was missing.
"Because this is No. 2 Spacetime." Mako Mori followed over and explained simply, "This is the Timeline Central Hub of our Mutual Aid Society. All timelines are connected to this place, and information from various parallel timelines is relayed here."
"However, a deadly Mutavore lurks in this spacetime. Although this is a completely sealed protective facility, I still don't recommend that you stay here for too long..."
As she spoke, Mako Mori pointed to the tunnel marked with the sign for No. 7 Spacetime. Xxs-2
Amelia immediately understood what she meant.
Professor Brand thanked the helpful guide and then led the others toward Tunnel 7.
Cooper also said goodbye to his new friend Jeff before leaving.
Watching the fifty-odd people leave, Mako Mori turned around and guided Jeff and the others into Tunnel No. 5.
Jack, the president of the North America Branch No. 5 Spacetime, should already be waiting for them over there.
Noisy.
This was Cooper's first reaction after traveling through the Spacetime Tunnel.
This appears to be a factory, and a rocket assembly plant at that.
Because a rocket that was almost fully assembled was standing not far ahead.
Cooper had become somewhat accustomed to seeing enormous creatures after exiting the Spacetime Tunnel.
He turned his head and looked around at his surroundings.
Besides the conspicuous rocket, there were also a large number of staff members wearing Mutual Aid Society uniforms. These people were used to people emerging from Spacetime Tunnel and would only glance at them before looking away.
Of course, the staff didn't mind their arrival, but others did.
There are also soldiers guarding the Spacetime Tunnel here.
They were only allowed to leave after their identities were checked again.
To show respect, Zhou Kun and his group gave him a very high welcome. Not only did Zhou Kun arrive, but Yi Yehua, who rarely appears, also showed up beside him.
This was mainly due to Professor Brand's influence.
This old professor studied the equations of gravity for 40 years, and although he couldn't solve them completely,
His principles and perseverance are worthy of respect.
Moreover, Yi Yehua also studies wormholes and black holes, so Professor Brand is, in every sense, his senior.
"Is that their third rocket? Was it No. 3 Spacetime? Can it carry people?"
Zhou Kun Yi Yehua exchanged pleasantries with Professor Brand, while Cooper, having nothing to do, could only look up at the distant rocket and ask questions of Amelia.
Emilia first confirmed his conjecture, that it was the third rocket. As for the manned issue... ノ②З
"It should be able to carry people, but there's no need right now. You know the Mutual Aid Society's plans."
Cooper, in a good mood, whistled and said, "The third ship only needs to reach the wormhole, but in the end they still need to carry out a manned mission, don't they?"
"At that time, we might be able to use our rockets and spaceships. Jody brought the technology for rockets and the Ranger spacecraft with him. They were specially designed for exploring other planets, and other dimensions may not have such technological reserves."
Cooper exclaimed "Wow!" and suddenly found the situation somewhat ridiculous. "You've really gone all out in 'selling out your country'."
Amelia simply glanced at him calmly.
"This is for all of humanity, and don't forget, you are now a 'traitor' and have no right to speak here."
After exchanging pleasantries with Professor Brand, Zhou Yi and his companion eagerly got to work, finding an open space to begin making arrangements.
First, there's the data Professor Brand brought. This data has already been preliminarily organized in the Pacific Rim Spacetime. Zhou Kun will send someone to reorganize the parts related to wormholes and black holes for future research.
During this period, Professor Brand and others will also provide assistance.
In addition, Yi Yehua's research group will also merge with Professor Brand's research group to jointly study black holes and wormholes.
Although the equations of gravity cannot be solved now, the study of celestial phenomena such as wormholes and black holes can still greatly advance the progress of physics.
Next up is spaceflight.
This falls under Jody's responsibilities.
He stroked his chin and suddenly said, "The astronauts on Lazarus missions have been sending us messages from the other side of the wormhole. I can help you receive those messages..."
