Wandering Meteor-Chapter 106: Principles of the Field of Consciousness
Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Principles of the Field of Consciousness
The Consciousness Field Receiver is constructed on the flat ground south of the Wandering Base.
It occupies about one third of the entire Wandering Base, covering an area of 30,000 square kilometers and is an incredibly vast Super Matrix.
Within this colossal Super Matrix, three million metal stands are evenly distributed, each fixed with copper rings a hundred meters thick.
Whenever the Consciousness Field Receiver is powered on, these thick copper wires on the metal stands release an exceedingly strong electromagnetic force, forming an electromagnetic field, and press towards the center, simulating the Gravity Field formed by a massive celestial body.
The Gravity Field compresses space to a certain extent, making it easier for space-time vibrations to be caught by this compressed space. To be precise, it attracts them like water being drawn toward a vortex.
By this point, the task of capturing space-time vibrations is essentially completed.
Speaking of which, this part isn’t actually difficult; the challenge is in deciphering the meaning within these vibrations.
Because the amplitude of space-time vibrations is extremely small, only one billionth the oscillation frequency of an Electron.
This is why the Universe vibrates incessantly, yet people cannot feel it. Such a level of vibration is too weak to make any discernible difference; detecting such minute vibrations and interpreting their meaning would certainly not be possible by biological civilization alone.
Hence, Earth Civilization uses Photon Detectors to detect space-time vibrations.
Since light will deviate from its path when encountering matter or experiencing Space Distortion, the greater the deviation, the higher the frequency of the space-time vibration.
Earth Civilization determines the frequency of the vibrations in this way and thereby deciphers their meaning.
However, most matter in the Universe cannot sense these minuscule space-time vibrations. Even photons will only experience a trajectory deviation by a fraction of a billion, which cannot be seen with the naked eye and must be captured and assessed using ultra-precise spectroscopic instruments.
After determining the frequency of the space-time vibrations, a translator then converts them into text or sound.
This entire set of principles is the working mechanism of the Consciousness Field Receiver, knowledge from the Double Star Civilization that Lu Chen initially obtained while absorbing Constant Star Silver.
Without existing theory, it’s probable that Earth Civilization could spend another thousand years and still not be able to create a Consciousness Field Receiver.
Of course, even with established theories and principles, it took Earth Civilization a full thirty years to digest, absorb, and finally build the Consciousness Field Receiver.
This demonstrates the significant level of technology involved.
After all, whether it’s the imitation Gravity Field spanning thirty thousand kilometers or photon-level detection instruments, these technologies were beyond the previous capability of Earth Civilization.

Standing atop a high platform.
Watching the massive Consciousness Field Receiver in front and listening to the teacher’s introduction, the elementary school students at the site were clearly bewildered.
However, although they did not understand for the moment, they didn’t plan to delve further because the most interesting part of this segment wasn’t comprehending the workings of the consciousness field, but the ability to converse with the Sun daddy.
Before the teacher even finished their introduction, some elementary school students were already clamoring to talk to Sun daddy.
In fact, since the day the Consciousness Field Receiver was activated, it has never been shut down, except for routine maintenance. So the moment these elementary school students stepped into the translation room of the Consciousness Field Receiver, Lu Chen, far in space, had already heard their chattering.
Conversing with these innocent elementary students was actually quite entertaining.
What Lu Chen remembered most was two little boys and a little girl. The first little boy asked if he could be taken to play on the Sun.
Lu Chen explained that the light on the Sun was too strong and too hot. Surprisingly, the little boy claimed he could wear sunglasses and bring a portable air conditioner, so there was no need to worry.
This response made Lu Chen and everyone present laugh and cry at the same time.
The other little girl had an even more interesting request, imploring Sun daddy to prevent her parents from divorcing.
Although Lu Chen could use his significant influence to forcefully prevent the girl’s parents from divorcing, such an action would be meaningless. He understood that there is no happiness in reluctance when hearts are no longer together, so he helplessly refused the little girl’s request.
Because in his philosophy, he did not wish to coddle children in a greenhouse; it’s best for them to experience the normal trials and tribulations in order to truly grow.
The last little boy did not have any peculiar requests, merely asking why the classification of biological civilizational tiers centered around energy harnessing technology and why Earth Civilization was only a Second-level Civilization?
This question would be quite complicated to explain and would take a long time.
Thus, Lu Chen used the history of Earth Civilization as an example, which made it much clearer to understand.
In the initial period after the birth of humans, mankind could only use the power (energy) of hands, feet, and muscles, which we might approximate as about one horsepower;
However, as humans began to invent various tools, the power (energy) at mankind’s disposal grew exponentially, reaching several tens to several hundreds of horsepower;
With time, when Universal Gravitation was discovered and mechanics were simplified into a set of simple equations, the principle of the steam engine was born, and mankind’s grasp of energy soared to tens of thousands of horsepower;
Decades later, when the secrets of electromagnetic force were unveiled, humans entered the electric age, where the Energy Level of the power that humans could harness made a tremendous leap, reaching millions of horsepower;
When scientists had breakthroughs in atomic physics and finally unraveled the secrets of the atom, discovering both nuclear fission and nuclear fusion, mankind’s grasp of Energy Level reached a terrifying extent, even enough to destroy humanity itself.
Therefore, looking at the evolutionary history of Earth Civilization,
whenever Earth Civilization understands the principles of a Natural Force, it significantly raises the upper limit of the Energy Level it controls, bringing about earth-shattering changes to the entire society.
Whether it’s the Steam Age, the Electric Age, or the Nuclear Age, we can clearly see the impact of the updating and iteration of energy technologies on society.
Hence, this is the main reason why the tiers of biological civilizations are centered around energy technology.
Because energy technology touches all aspects, affecting the overall standard of the entire biological civilization, so centering around energy technology prevents disparities in development!
As mentioned before, a First-level Civilization needs to master nuclear fusion (Planet-level), a Second-level Civilization needs to master annihilation (Constant Star Level), and a Third-level Civilization needs to harness vacuum energy (Star System Level).
Now it can be revealed that a Level 4 Civilization needs to master the Unified Force (nebula-level) — the force that results from unifying all Four Basic Forces of the Universe.
Within the exceedingly clear examples provided by Lu Chen,
This day’s field trip concluded, and as the sun set, the teacher escorted the students onto the magnetic levitation school bus for the return trip.
