As Zhu Youxin gave the order to start the experiment, in the empty test field, the huge equipment above the alloy platform that served as the base emitted bursts of low roars.
Although the roar was low, it was extremely penetrating. Even through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, Ning Qingxuan and his group could hear it clearly.
Both Ning Qingxuan/General and Yae God's Son sensed the enormous power that was accumulating in the device at this moment.
Of course, for the Eightfold Goddess, that power was the thunder element that she felt familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar with, but Ning Qingxuan knew better that it was the power of an extremely powerful electromagnetic field.
What is Electricity?
In simple terms, electricity is a natural phenomenon caused by stationary or moving electric charges, and is a property of subatomic particles such as electrons and protons that produces repulsive and attractive forces between them.
As one of the four fundamental forces, the electromagnetic force, even without exploring its essence, its meaning alone is enough to indicate that electricity and magnetism are inseparable.
Ning Qingxuan is able to distort the electromagnetic field within a certain range of his own body through his personal will.
This gives him an innate understanding of this basic force that is superior to that of ordinary people and a perspective that only he can accurately understand.
Even the empire's top scientists can only roughly simulate and imagine Ning Qingxuan's understanding through Ning Qingxuan's oral narration, but cannot achieve true complete equivalence.
Ning Qingxuan's unique understanding went to a higher level after he and the general achieved a state of dual bodies with one soul, thus possessing a certain degree of Thunder God's authority in disguise.
Ning Qingxuan didn't know to what extent the Lei Dianying of Teyvat understood the essence of his innate authority, but at least in the abilities she gave to the general, this divine power remained more on the surface, allowing the general to use it freely - but that was all.
But when the general's ability to apply it was combined with Ning Qingxuan's existing ability to understand the essence to a certain extent, the effect produced was actually causing Ning Qingxuan's talent to begin to change in a rather subtle direction.
——That is the direction that points directly to the most fundamental laws and rules.
This is something he himself doesn't even realize now.
And now, General Ning Qingxuan can clearly sense that there are two distorted electromagnetic force fields in completely opposite states colliding violently in the test field.
The distorted force field caused the charged particles in the surrounding air to move violently, and the most obvious phenomenon was that brilliant arcs suddenly appeared around the huge device.
Ning Qingxuan and the general "saw" the extremely incredible changes taking place at the microscopic level, but the Eightfold Son of God in the general's arms was just sighing: This is actually a power that humans can master?
Without the Eye of God, ordinary humans without any supernatural powers were able to completely rely on the machines and equipment made with their own hands, and to a certain extent control this ability that even made her feel palpitating.
Yae Shinto suddenly thought of the time when Ta-Ting Sha had just finished building the Yuying furnace core and he sighed from afar when observing from afar - humans are indeed the most incredible and interesting species.
Just when the Eightfold Son of God had just finished sighing, the experiment had finally reached the most critical step.
The two colliding electromagnetic force fields distorted time and space, and created a ball of pure darkness above the base in the test site that was shaped like a black hole and madly devoured all the light around it.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!! Record the data!!"
In the main control room, Zhu Youxin was shouting wildly at the top of his lungs, while the technicians around him were nervously and orderly recording the data fed back by all the sensors.
"Too...too incredible! It's swallowing up light! What on earth is it? A black hole? Impossible! If it were a black hole, a black hole with such a small gravitational distortion range would evaporate in an instant - but it manages to exist stably!"
"The essence of gravity is the distortion of the surrounding space-time by objects with mass." Ning Qingxuan murmured in a low voice behind the French window, "When this distortion reaches its extreme, it will become a black hole - this thing is like that, it distorts space-time to the extreme."
"But the difference is that it doesn't rely on so-called mass, but something else... well... unfortunately, I still can't really understand it."
Ning Qingxuan sighed dejectedly and shook his head.
This thing was clearly beyond the scope of the curriculum, and it was ridiculously far from the scope. It was beyond his ability to analyze based on his own knowledge and experience.
But this does not prevent Ning Qingxuan from defining it - a stronger and more essential force different from traditional gravity, which compresses and distorts that small space-time the size of a basketball to the extreme.
Ironically, the first thing Ning Qingxuan thought of was the military use of this thing: if it was used to attack the enemy, the effect would definitely be terrible, right?
Finally, after a slight but spreading vibration throughout the entire underground research institute, even more incredible changes occurred.
The black "ball" was already quietly suspended in the air. It was the size of a basketball and looked no different from before, but everyone could sense that it had become different.
Zhu Youxin tried to use all kinds of detection equipment to scan, and finally found a shocking fact -
"Your Highness! This thing... this thing actually appears in a two-dimensional plane!"
"No, its true form is not like this. But in four-dimensional space-time, no matter from which angle we observe it, what we 'see' is just a two-dimensional black circle the size of a basketball facing the observer!"
"It presents the purest black, so we have the illusion that it is a black ball!"
In the main control room, Zhu Youxin excitedly reported to Ning Qingxuan in the corridor behind the floor-to-ceiling window through the communication broadcast.
However, at this time, Ning Qingxuan no longer had much energy to listen to Zhu Youxin's report.
His breathing became a little heavy, and he was staring at the black two-dimensional plane floating in the air.
Others couldn't feel it, but General Ning Qingxuan could vaguely sense it - they had opened a window to another world!
Although this window is now only the size of a basketball...
