Chapter 976: Success
A few hours later, still inside that same underground Laboratory.
Sun Cheng looked at a piece of equipment in front of him that was nearly five meters tall, likely weighing no less than twenty-plus tons, and looked more like a towable shipping container, and asked with some curiosity: "What is this?"
"A transport device... We are currently still in the stage of digesting and exploring the technology, and are not yet able to achieve the kind of portal seen in the video you previously provided to us, Commander..."
"Oh!"
Sun Cheng was somewhat disappointed in his heart, but he was no longer a technological novice who knew nothing.
Technology is like a tree, and the process of climbing the technology tree is just like the growth process of a great tree.
Perhaps under conditions of sufficient nutrition, the growth speed can be faster, but there are no shortcuts to this process.
Atlas and the others were in this situation right now!
The technology regarding the Space Bridge that Sun Cheng extracted from the Memory Data of Jetfire and Sentinel Prime was not complete.
The former's technology regarding the Space Bridge was the most chaotic, which was the reason why he had been unable to master this technology even after finding Jetfire and reading his memories.
In Jetfire's view, the importance of Space Bridge technology to him was likely only below some of his own private memories.
And compared to him, in the heart of Sentinel Prime, Space Bridge technology clearly did not count as something too high-end.
The technology regarding the Space Bridge that Sun Cheng read from his Memory Data was relatively systematic, although it was also incomplete, with some key things having been intentionally encrypted by him.
But even though it was incomplete, after being handed to Atlas and the others, it became nutrition and reference, allowing the efficiency of the previously difficult Space Bridge technology research to be rapidly improved.
But the absorption of technology itself requires time, and at the same time, because the Space Bridge technology Sun Cheng got from Sentinel Prime was also incomplete.
So even with references, they had to use the Smart Brain to conduct simulation tests again and again, and in the process of simulation testing, gradually establish a series of easy-to-use formulas and models according to the knowledge they had mastered, find the erroneous data within, and then carry out targeted breakthroughs.
Finally, after accumulating enough data, they would conduct an experiment.
Taking a step forward, Sun Cheng quickly reached out his hand and pressed it onto that transport device.
Dozens of metal joints, resembling liquid, quickly darted out from his arm and rapidly pierced into that transport device.
In this process, they seemed to have perfectly fused into that transport device, leaving not the slightest trace behind.
And with the insertion of the dozens of metal joints, lines of strange, varied-form graphics and text flashed rapidly in Sun Cheng's eyes; it was the data stream formed by Cybertronian Script.
The scan of this transport device lasted for no more than a few dozen seconds.
Sun Cheng quickly retracted the metal joints, and when he raised his hand, no holes could be seen on the transport device in front of him.
"A very precise piece of equipment!"
He sighed in his heart, having originally thought that the transport device in front of him would be far inferior to the transport devices Sentinel Prime had once manufactured.
Unexpectedly, the internal components of this transport device were as many as several million.
Many components approaching the nano-scale would likely require the combined strength of Earth to manufacture.
Sentinel Prime had once launched a portion of the transport devices into outer space; at the beginning of the Cairo Battle, Sun Cheng had even once thought about whether to expose the Golden Eagle series of small spacecraft to directly capture some transport devices from outer space and bring them back for research.
Unfortunately, it was unknown whether Sentinel Prime had anticipated in advance that those transport devices would be targeted, or if those transport devices manufactured by the Autobot had some quality issues.
After maintaining the portal for a period of time, those transport devices located in space basically turned into fragments after exploding; a portion were evaporated by high temperatures when falling into the atmosphere, and a small portion became dangerous space junk in Earth's outer space.
"Prepare to start the test!"
After Sun Cheng finished inspecting the equipment, he also began to feel impatient, wanting to witness a cross-space transport with his own eyes.
"Yes!"
Atlas immediately gave the order, and the Laboratory suddenly began to bustle with activity.
Under the command of several Decepticon Engineers, teams of Technical Officers surrounded the transport device, continuously connecting pipes to an even larger energy supply device.
At the same time, there were also some Engineers nearby specifically monitoring the real-time status of the equipment.
Atlas himself was not idle either; after directing several Technical Officers to operate for a while at two pieces of equipment in the Laboratory that looked like crystal pillars, a super-clear projection screen four meters wide and twenty meters long was instantly formed between the two crystal pillars.
And displayed on the screen was another transport device currently being synchronized and debugged in another Laboratory.
The entire debugging process lasted for more than half an hour.
Only then did Atlas come to report to Sun Cheng: "Commander, everything is ready!"
Sun Cheng nodded, "Begin!"
After Atlas turned around and gave an order to the Decepticon Technical Officers who were already prepared in front of the equipment, two Technical Officers lifted a heavy, massive steel block and placed it inside the opened transport device.
The transport device was closed again shortly after, and Atlas, who was in charge of this transport test, immediately ordered: "Prepare to simultaneously activate the transport devices, transmit information, and perform Space Bridge anchoring!"
The two Decepticon Engineers responsible for operating the transport devices immediately walked to the transport devices in both Laboratories simultaneously and began to operate them.
With the continuous injection of massive amounts of energy, Sun Cheng soon felt a powerful energy fluctuation, and at the same time, a spatial singularity was actually created.
Visible distortion phenomena immediately appeared inside the transport device.
Sun Cheng watched without blinking; he had also absorbed and digested quite a bit of technology regarding the Space Bridge and still understood its principles a little.
To put it simply, it was two transport devices simultaneously creating two spatial singularities.
Then, through the two singularities, they simultaneously transmitted some information to the other, while artificially controlling the other singularity to receive and provide feedback on this information.
In this process, the exchange of information would briefly form a channel through which information could pass.
This is the Space Bridge, and the process of information searching for the other singularity is called anchoring!
And in the worldview of the Cybertronians, everything in the world is composed of information; life is like this, minerals are like this, energy is like this, and the universe is also like this.
It is just that some information they can already interpret, while some they have not yet interpreted.
Compared to the Cybertronians, Sun Cheng preferred to understand information as data.
All things in the world are composed of data that can be interpreted and data that cannot yet be interpreted; life is like this, matter is like this, and energy/space/time are all like this.
Sun Cheng made full use of the Cybertronians' magical dynamic observation ability, with one eye staring fixedly at the transport device in the Laboratory, and the other eye staring at the situation in the other Laboratory displayed on the screen.
And when the Decepticon Engineer responsible for the test in the other Laboratory suddenly reminded them in a loud voice that the Space Bridge anchoring was successful.
Atlas quickly gave the order to initiate transport.
In an instant, Sun Cheng noticed that a powerful energy wave shot out from the transport device in this Laboratory, instantly blasting the steel block, which weighed five hundred kilograms, into an atomic state and driving it into the singularity.
Almost at the same time, in the other Laboratory on the screen, after a flash of blue light inside the identical transport device, a steel block exactly the same as the one they had just transported from their Laboratory appeared inside the transport device.
The fourth teleportation experiment, success!
