What is placed in the tray is a strange thing as big as a fingernail head. It cannot see its existence with the naked eye, and even the soul cannot perceive its existence. No matter what means it is used, looking at it, the position of the nail size in the tray is nothing.

When the light shone on it, it did not reflect back at all, so it looked like this thing was pitch black.

At the same time, its mass is very large. Its something of a nail head weighs as much as 700 grams.

"What is this?" Zhang Qifan asked in confusion.

Not only Zhang Qifan was watching, but also Ferol, Schibbins and others gathered together, carefully looking at the small piece of stuff. Ferol seemed to have guessed something, and he stretched out his fingers with excitement and poked it gently at the piece of stuff.

Will it not be damaged? Zhang Qifan thought to himself, and looked at Antonio with the flow, but saw Antonio look calm and did not try to stop Ferol's actions.

He has developed this piece of stuff. It is clearest whether it can touch him. If it is not stopped, it will be fine.

Ferror's fingers penetrated directly into the stuff. Zhang Qifan noticed sensitively that Ferror's fingers actually did not touch the stuff. There was a gap of about a few millimeters between the skin and the stuff. It seemed that the repulsive force between the two substances made it unable to fit together.

Zhang Qifan noticed that as his fingers touched the mass of substance, Felor seemed to have confirmed something, and his body was so excited that he trembled slightly.

His tone was also trembling: "Look... can't see, can't touch it. It's as heavy as a mountain. This... this is dark matter... no, no. It should be some kind of complex of dark matter."

"Dark matter?!" Whether Zhang Qifan, Antonio or Schibbins present, his eyes lit up.

In the entire universe, the number of stars is tens of trillions, but whether it is planets, stars, nebula, etc. All the stars that can be seen through observation only account for about five to ten percent of the total mass of the universe, and all the rest are dark matter and dark energy.

The sum of dark matter and dark energy accounts for 90% of the entire universe. These things, until now, are still unobservable and captured by human technology, for a long time. They are a major mystery that plagues scientists. Humans can only confirm the existence of this magical matter through side-by-side means.

If there is matter, there is antimatter. However, dark matter is more special. Its antimatter is itself. When dark matter collides with its own antimatter particles, the energy generated is greater and it is a more efficient energy than antimatter.

The history of human civilization development is a history of the energy revolution, starting from the use of flames in ancient times, from firewood to wood and carbon to fuel, and then to nuclear energy. Without these energy revolutions, humans would not have entered space and become a secondary civilization.

No one can imagine how a wood-burning rocket transported the spacecraft into the air.

After entering the third-level civilization, such as the Naths and Hertz people, they have begun to disintegrate from matter to the era of antimatter. The utilization of dark matter has basically reached the level of the fifth-level civilization.

So many people present, even the Naths like Shibin and Batu had little understanding of dark matter. Only Ferrol, because of the special nature of the universe merchant, had a little understanding of this dark matter.

Dark matter is invisible or touched. The thing in front of you that can absorb all light and cannot even sense the soul is not pure dark matter, but some kind of complex.

But this is shocking enough.

"Did you extract it from Xilan?" Zhang Qifan asked in disbelief. Xilan is a substance formed after being attacked by the breath of death for a long time. Whether it is extracting soul energy or reducing it to soil, it is not surprising.

But how can it be impossible to extract a complex of dark matter! What is the relationship between dark matter and soul energy?

"Yes. After I physically crushed Xilan, I used the fast pulse to remove all the impurities, and the rest was this pile of things." Antonio was obviously shocked by the name of dark matter. It was not until Zhang Qifan repeated the question for the second time that he realized.

Everyone looked at each other for a while, and finally all the focus fell on Ferrol. With such a simple refining method, would it really be dark matter?

After everyone saw this, Ferrol was not sure and hesitated: "How about..., let's try?"

"How to try?" Everyone asked at the same time. A fleet with a second-level civilization as the main body has a little technology for third-level civilization. If you want to test dark matter that can only be used for level five civilizations, it is no less difficult than primitive people to test nuclear raw materials.

"Universal Engine." Ferro said.

...

Ferrol's initial airship has three very valuable equipment, wormhole generator, smart AI, and universal engine. These three things are the initial equipment of every Ian.

The advantage of a universal engine is that it can use low-calorie chemical fuels such as firewood, wood, carbon fuel, etc., and can also utilize advanced energy sources such as antimatter and dark matter. If this thing is really dark matter, the universal engine can naturally be used.

"All personnel take their place to cut off the energy supply of the secondary engine..."

With Yoon's alarm, the personnel in the turbine room opened the gate safety with the key and pulled down the circuit breaker.

With a clang, the entire Eun was dark, and all the energy lines except emergency lighting were interrupted.

There are two engines on the Eun, one is a universal engine removed from the initial airship, and the other is a material disintegration engine purchased in the solar system. The model is relatively small and the power is only about 10,000 special numbers.

What is disconnected now is the matter disintegration engine. In order to more accurately measure the energy ratio of dark matter, all the extra energy must be removed.

After all the remaining energy of the warship was exhausted, Zhang Qifan ordered: "Main engine, deliver fuel."

The 700 grams of composite was separated by about 100 grams and was poured into the universal engine through an automatic delivery device.

The delivery port of the universal engine is closed, ignited, and started. After a few seconds, the universal engine trembled gently.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the main screen. At this moment, the main screen was projecting the ship-based energy interface. On the interface, all readings had already returned to zero. The numbers here were related to the energy status of the entire warship, and all readings had returned to zero, which meant that at this moment, Eun had no energy to rotate the naval gun.

Everyone was awake and waited nervously. If the readings on the interface jumped, it proved that the thing was really dark matter. If it was true, then these things would be Zhang Qifan's most valuable gain in this galaxy. (To be continued...)
