The Shanghai International Convention and Exhibition Center.
Conference hall No.1.
The screen displayed a live stream from 360,000 kilometers away, with an astronaut with a Chinese flag printed on his uniform standing in front of a control console.
A clear voice was heard throughout the conference hall.
"Collision track is good to go!
"Target energy level: One peta electronvolt.
"Electric circuit is in good condition.
"Being power up!"
The astronaut standing in front of the console reached out and pressed a button.
Immediately after, a huge amount of energy began to enter the collider ring.
Driven by the energy that simulated the beginning of the Big Bang, the protons collided with one another, producing sparks and debris that were far too small for the naked eye to see.
