935: Chapter 77 Epoch-Making Progress (5800) 935: Chapter 77 Epoch-Making Progress (5800) Recently, Ian has carried out calculations of the speed of light.

This wasn’t a particularly difficult task, as long as one had high-quality lenses and a stable mechanical axis, and with Ian’s identity, he could easily obtain high-quality measuring tools through any channel.

The results were actually quite fascinating: the speed of light was normal.

Although the calculated speed of light wasn’t exactly the same as that of Earth, it was within an acceptable margin of error.

And the gravitational constant test conducted with a Cavendish torsion balance also proved that the gravity of Terra was completely identical to Earth’s.

Up to this point, there wasn’t much to be surprised about, as so far the Terra Universe seemed to be principally a material world, and almost all phenomena were consistent with the Earth Universe.

Even if they are not the same universe, they are at least extremely similar parallel universes.

But the problem was that Terra was very massive.

The mass of Terra Star was about 1.7 times that of Earth, its gravity indeed greater, and density normal, yet Ian did not feel any differences in this regard.

Of course, this doesn’t necessarily indicate anything…

perhaps the physical fitness of the Terra People was so strong that they could not perceive this difference?

This might not seem like a big deal, all constants being normal, proving that he was not in a universe completely different from Earth’s, and implying that the knowledge he brought from Earth could still be effective.

Ian should be happy about that.

But in fact, this made Ian puzzled.

“A universe with Origin Quality and Spirit Energy, and you’re telling me everything is the same?”

Ian couldn’t understand; Origin Quality Spiritual Energy was something that could directly alter the physical constants within a region.

With these two elements, Spirit Energy Users could manipulate gravity, reinforce electromagnetism, Sublimators could use their bodies to contain nuclear reactors, Origin Structures could transform biological bodies from organelles to even lower levels, change the properties of most materials, and create various stable Sublimated Metals with different functions…

Their very existence symbolized ‘abnormality’—yet the measurable results were all normal!

“No, the problem is with me.”

In the laboratory, Ian slightly shook his head, realizing the flaw in his reasoning: “Perhaps, the question shouldn’t be ‘why in a universe with Origin Quality and Spirit Energy, the constants are the same as Earth’s’.”

“But rather, ‘it is because of the presence of Origin Quality and Spirit Energy that the universe can be the same as that of the Earth Universe’.”

This may be the real outcome.

To obtain data truly comparable to the Earth Universe, it would probably be necessary to create an ‘Aether Vacuum’.

Using Pure Origin to repel Natural Spirit Energy and creating a pure ‘Ether Bubble’ within, is the core technology of the Aether Furnace Core, and the interior of the bubble, when not activating the ‘energy storage’ function, is very close to an Aether Vacuum.

Testing there, at the very least, could determine the normal speed of light without the interference of Origin Quality Spiritual Energy, while gravity is too macroscopic to obtain undisturbed data.

However, conversely, if the speed of light obtained in the Aether Vacuum differed from that in the Origin Quality Spiritual Energy Space-Time, then it could probably be proved as well that the gravitational constant among others were distorted by Origin Quality Spiritual Energy.

With the experiment reaching this stage, there’s no need to continue.

Even under tighter and stricter experimental conditions, it would not help the development of the current productive forces, it would merely satisfy Ian’s own curiosity.

So, after completing the initial calculations, Ian shifted his focus to other areas.

For instance, the new agricultural system he longed for.

…

Dazzling Lake.

Ian was inspecting the newly constructed farm building.

The hydroponic vertical farm building by the lakeside was already taking shape, the unfinished skyscraper already 70 meters high.

Its projected height would exceed 100 meters, almost reaching the scale of an Alchemy tower.

The chief foreman, named Captain Gera, was an Earth Ascender.

His True Form was not strong, being of the same model as a Wave Singer, emerging from the ‘Wayshaper’, a Bloodline of the Iron Claw Giant Mole, with an extremely strong ability to manipulate soil and rocks, to probe geological and building conditions.

The Terra World had concrete and cement, and the discipline of architecture was highly developed; otherwise, those hundreds of meters high skyscrapers and megastructures simply couldn’t be built.

Even if they were all built by Sublimators themselves, would the everyday maintenance only involve Sublimators?

Captain Gera was a professional who had participated in the construction of the Alchemy tower in Nauman City.

After the construction of Nauman City was completed, he, having gained much experience, went independent, leading his own team for contracts and living quite comfortably.

After all, in Terra, a First Energy Level Ascender who doesn’t consider leveling up or competing for power and simply wants to earn money can always live very comfortably and easily.

Captain Gera respectfully accompanied Ian in inspecting this building, which he considered ‘strange and peculiar’.

To be honest, after working in South Ridge for so many years, he had never heard of such bizarre requirements: a completely transparent high-rise building?

With a comprehensive water circulation and lighting system inside?

Despite the availability of great farmland right beside it, yet they wanted to farm inside the building?

No matter how he thought about it, it seemed strange, even superfluous, but if there was one thing that Gera had learned through his years, it was not to comment on things outside his comprehension: was he the wise one or was it the Lord who managed to obtain an Elite Alchemist Certificate at the age of sixteen?
