Chapter 405: A New Discovery

"So, what good ideas do you have?" Ye Cang looked at Kaisha.

Kaisha gave a mysterious smile.

"Naturally, it's developing the latest type of Wormhole; I already had Hexi start working on it a long time ago."

"The progress is good so far, no problems have appeared, and it is expected to be developed in another month."

"Heh heh, this time you aren't as farsighted as I am!"

As she spoke, Kaisha revealed a proud expression, unable to help but lift her head, exposing her snow-white neck.

Yet Ye Cang only offered a lukewarm compliment.

"Not bad."

"I've noted your contribution; when it comes time to fight the Zerg, I will have the Angels stay off the front lines as much as possible to ensure their survival."

Ye Cang's words made Kaisha unable to help but roll her eyes in an incredibly exaggerated way.

Not only was there no tangible reward, but he had also painted a vague, illusory pie in the sky for her.

He started talking about the Zerg again.

The current Ye Cang was truly no different from Karl.

One shouts about the Void, Void, every single day.

The other shouts about the Zerg, Zerg, every single day.

I'm afraid the only difference between the two is:

One makes the Void known to everyone and believes the Void Arrival is an act of salvation.

The other keeps the Zerg hidden, bears it all on his own shoulders, and is conducting an Expedition to unify the galaxy.

To be honest, in Kaisha's view.

Both of these people are quite sick.

But Ye Cang is much more reliable than Karl; at least Ye Cang is still a person right now!

A living, breathing person you can touch and kill!

As for Karl...

I can't be bothered to say more.

"Your skill at painting pies in the sky is really getting better and better." Kaisha couldn't help but curl her lip.

"I can't be bothered to deal with you."

"Wait for news from Hexi; I will notify you when the time comes."

Having said that, Kaisha got up and left.

Ye Cang didn't speak; he knew that there was no point in defending himself regarding the Zerg.

Only seeing is believing.

Once the Zerg appear and Kaisha sees them with her own eyes, she will know he wasn't painting a pie in the sky.

Watching Kaisha's back, Ye Cang suddenly discovered something off.

Ever since Kaisha stopped using her energy-saving mode much.

She has always been dressed as an Angel.

Silver armor paired with a super short skirt.

Unlike other Angels, she usually wears red "long johns" to cover her long, exposed legs.

But today, Kaisha wasn't wearing her "red long johns," directly revealing her long legs.

Blinking his eyes twice, Ye Cang threw the matter to the back of his mind.

He was just a little curious.

As for the specific situation, that had nothing to do with him; he still had many things to be busy with.

After Kaisha walked away, Ye Cang intended to look at the star map outside the observable Universe.

Although looking at it was useless, it could satisfy his curiosity.

It must be said, he was truly curious.

What kind of civilization would be born outside the observable Universe?

However, as soon as the star map outside the observable Universe opened.

Zhizi sent a notification.

"Detected that the star map has a replacement encryption mode, decrypt?"

Ye Cang:...

When a person is extremely speechless, they really will laugh out loud.

That was Ye Cang's situation.

A cold laugh rang through the entire office, echoing for a long time before it stopped.

Ye Cang expressed that he was truly impressed by Taikong.

What exactly does he want to do?

Setting up so many encryptions!

Sighing, Ye Cang said: "Decrypt, decrypt."

"By the way, how long will this decryption take?"

"5 minutes," Zhizi responded.

The number 5 minutes made Ye Cang heave a sigh of relief.

It didn't take much time; he could wait.

5 minutes later.

Zhizi sent a response.

"Decryption complete. Shall I open the content?"

"The content this time is not much; it can be opened normally."

"Open it."

As Ye Cang's voice fell, a piece of text immediately appeared before his eyes, written in Chinese characters; the length was not too long, only 70,000 to 80,000 words.

He took a rough look at it.

Ye Cang learned that this was a paper by Taikong on the study of the shape of the Universe.

What was incomprehensible, however, was why he would even need to encrypt the paper.

Carrying his doubts, Ye Cang began to read it carefully.

70,000 to 80,000 words could be finished in an hour or so.

Several hours later, Ye Cang finished reading the paper and fell into deep thought.

His previous judgment had been somewhat mistaken.

This paper was not merely a study of the shape of the Universe; it also included a small portion of research on what lies beyond the Universe.

In Taikong's view, the Universe he currently resides in is spherical and is constantly expanding, with the speed of expansion exceeding the speed of light; he used a lot of data to prove this point.

Next was the research on what lies beyond the Universe.

The research regarding this part was very vague.

The data and sentences within it were also riddled with errors, leaving Ye Cang completely confused.

Fortunately, the paper did state one normal passage.

The Universe we inhabit has a 99% probability of being a bubble universe.

This bubble universe floats within a parent universe.

In this parent universe, our bubble universe is the most ordinary and inconspicuous one; there are countless such bubble universes in the parent universe.

And the parent universe is very likely to be...

The paper came to an abrupt end here.

But this paper provided Ye Cang with some clues.

Taikong's bubble universe theory was born from inflation theory, and inflation theory has an extremely close relationship with Quantum theory.

In other words, Taikong possesses a near-complete set of Quantum theory.

Why say it is near-complete?

Mainly because no one has ever seen the complete theory, so it can only be called near-complete.

Since Taikong possesses a near-complete Quantum theory, why not pass it on to Karl?

Instead, he let this near-complete Quantum theory vanish from the entire Universe.

No, it should be that it vanished from the Laniakea Supercluster.

Other parts of the Universe are currently unknown.

The current mainstream is Classical Physics.

There is absolutely no such thing as Quantum theory.

Only here with him does a portion of the theory exist.

Taikong... what is he planning?

Ye Cang really wanted to discuss this with someone right now—many hands make light work—but he absolutely could not let this matter be known.

If he were to speak of it, Taikong would definitely discover it.

Thinking about it carefully, this part of the content was specifically hidden and encrypted by Taikong, yet he happened to discover it.

One can imagine... what will happen after Taikong discovers this.

Ye Cang had a bit of a headache...

After a moment of silence, he said to Zhizi: "Zhizi, encrypt this paper; use the highest encryption program and encrypt it with as many layers as possible."

"And set a self-destruct program; absolutely, absolutely do not let a second person besides me see this paper."

"Destroy this paper completely when necessary."

After finishing all this, Ye Cang rubbed his throbbing temples.

He recalled again the words Taikong said when he suddenly appeared before him.

What on earth does he want to do!
