Destroy the world?
Han Xiao and Kasuyi looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
With just a few of us, to destroy an advanced civilization like the Celestial Star Alliance …
Just a few dishes, and you're already so drunk?
Han Xiao cursed in his mind, but he could also tell that there was a lot of hidden information in this. He patiently asked,
He patiently asked, "You said this is the only way for us to leave? Tell me in detail. "
"I know that you think this is an impossible task, but in fact, it's not as difficult as you think … but it's not easy either," the mysterious man said in a hoarse voice. "I believe that when you first entered this secondary dimension, you were very shocked. You didn't expect that there was a universe-like space here, and there were also extremely powerful civilizations."
"That's right." Han Xiao nodded. There was nothing to hide.
"Hehe, it's not just you. Every outsider had the same reaction," the mysterious man said slowly. The mysterious man said slowly, "I understand your troubles, but your worries are superfluous. Everything you have seen … the Celestial Star Alliance, the tens of thousands of experts with Divine Bodies and above, including me, are all illusions that have long passed away. Our world … has long been destroyed!"
Han Xiao was shocked. He asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?
He doubted it and asked, "What exactly is going on?"
"The world you see is a mutated space-time loop based on Information Form technology," the mysterious man said indifferently. "You should have found some information on the World Reboot Plan on the Internet. This plan is not just a simple insurance policy but also a special plan used by the Celestial Star Alliance to escape the end of the universe … It's just that this plan failed. Due to some changes in the Information Form, a part of the timeline was cut off, forming a closed cycle of space-time, which is the world I'm in. It constantly ends at a fixed point in time and restarts at a fixed point in time, and I'm the only one who retains my memory in the cycle."
"… So, if we want to leave here, we have to break your so-called closed space-time loop?"
Han Xiao furrowed his brows.
According to the principle of the Space-Time Splicing Technology, this situation was indeed possible, but he found it hard to believe this statement. There were several terms that he only knew a little about.
The mysterious man glanced at the two people's faces and laughed hoarsely, saying,
"Haha, don't look at me like that. I'm not a liar. It's normal for you to be filled with doubts. Since I invited you here, I intend to explain everything from the beginning. It's a long story …"
"Don't worry, we have plenty of time." Han Xiao stood with his arms crossed.
"Then be prepared. No matter how shocked you are later, do not interrupt my narration, because what you are about to hear will involve the secrets and the truth of the entire universe …"
The mysterious man's tone became solemn.
"Please go ahead." Han Xiao straightened his face and made a gesture of invitation.
The mysterious man exhaled and said slowly,
"Everything has a lifespan, and so does the universe. According to normal development, the universe will inevitably usher in its ultimate fate. Perhaps it will be the Heat Death, perhaps it will be the Big Collapse, or perhaps it will be the Big Tear. When everything comes to an end, everything is destined to end.
However, in the beginning of time and space, there was a civilization that developed to the extreme, far more powerful than us. In order to escape this fate, they chose to give the universe a new life and continue their existence … In the end, they did not succeed, but it was not a complete failure. "Under their transformation, the basic rules of the universe changed. When it expanded to a certain extent and reached the fork in the ultimate fate, the universe would voluntarily collapse and devour everything, turning into the original singularity. Then, it would produce the Big Bang that created the world, turning back into a new universe that was empty but full of vitality … We call it the 'Big Reboot'.
"This god-level civilization that gave the universe a glimmer of hope has long been destroyed by the Big Reboot. Their name has also disappeared in the long river of time, but their transformation of the universe is the only legacy left to future generations. Nothing can measure the preciousness of this legacy. Without their contribution, all the civilizations that came after would not have existed.
"Therefore, we call this civilization the Savior Civilization. They started the Iteration of the universe … and the universe they were in became the anchor point of the timeline, called the First Iteration.
"However, the Big Reboot caused the time when the universe ushered in its ultimate fate to be much earlier. Therefore, the development time of the civilizations in the subsequent Iterations was shortened, and no one could reach the height of the Savior Civilization. They were only repeating the cycle of destruction. No matter how the civilization developed, it would eventually perish in the Big Reboot. They could not make any changes to the universe, nor could they leave any information.
Just like that, countless Iterations passed. Finally, a variable appeared. The most powerful civilization of this Iteration made a shocking breakthrough in the field of Information Form.
They found traces of the Savior Civilization and discovered part of the reason for the birth of the Big Reboot. They believed that the transformation of the Savior Civilization happened to trigger the mutation of the Information Form, thus affecting the development path of the universe … In their opinion, the universe was a program that could rewrite the way it operated, and the Information Form was a compiled language.
Therefore, they tried to use the Information Form to continue their civilization, but unfortunately, they failed in the end. However, they also left behind a legacy, which was an existence called the 'Sanctum'.
This thing might have been their tinder vault, but by chance, it mutated into one of the fundamental laws of the universe and would not be destroyed with the Big Reboot. It would record all the information that happened in an Iteration and store it in the form of an Information Form. When the Big Reboot happened, it would randomly extract a portion of the information and integrate it into the fundamental laws of the new universe, making small changes to the universe time and time again, constantly making the universe of the next Iteration richer …
"You might not understand it well, but I'll give you an example. The five Super systems are the products of the Sanctum. "In ancient times, there were Supers in some Iterations of the universe, and there were some that did not. The systems were different. "The Sanctum recorded a portion of the Super systems, and it happened to be permanently integrated into the laws of the universe at the moment of the Big Reboot. Therefore, in the later Iterations, Supers of this system would inevitably appear … That's how the five Super systems came about. They did not appear at the same time but were constantly replenished and completed over and over again. Therefore, we have five Super systems, and you also have five Super systems. This is not a coincidence.
"Let me give you another example … You should have realized that there are no secondary dimensions here. Our Iteration is earlier than yours, and the World Reboot Plan might be the root of the secondary dimensions. The Sanctum integrated it into our Big Reboot this time … Therefore, we might be the creators of the secondary dimensions!
"In short, the appearance of the Sanctum allowed the subsequent Iterations to jump out of the eternal cycle of death, bringing more variables. It constantly enriched the universe of the next Iteration. In fact, this is a kind of inheritance, allowing the new universe to enjoy the development results left behind by the previous Iteration, turning the Big Reboot into an optimization of the subsequent Iterations of the universe … Although it was weak, many little drops made an ocean.
"Therefore, generally speaking, the later the Iteration of the universe, the stronger and more advanced the civilization as a whole!
"Therefore, we call this civilization the Sanctum civilization, and the Iteration of the universe it is in is called the Iteration of the Revolution.
"In addition to optimizing the function of the universe, the Sanctum is also like a recording tool at the beginning of the civilization's enlightenment, allowing the history of the Iterations to be recorded and information to be passed down. "When the later generations develop to a certain extent, they have the ability to open the Sanctum. The higher the technological power, the more information they can obtain from it …
"Therefore, a relay of civilizations across the Iterations has begun!
"Generations of cosmic civilizations inherit the research of their predecessors, learn from the failures of their predecessors, and constantly explore new paths. Even if they fail, they will leave their own insights in the Sanctum for future generations to continue researching … Everything they do is to escape the ultimate fate of the universe, placing their hopes on the future, hoping that the later generations will be able to survive the Great Reboot and find a way to continue.
"Only by continuously passing down the experience will the subsequent Iterations have a higher chance of achieving breakthroughs.
"In our Iteration, the World Reboot Plan is our result. Although it did not allow our civilization to continue in the end, it created a secondary dimension world for future generations, giving you more possibilities.
"And this world is a small loop of the timeline at the end of the universe where I am. It is a failed reboot, an illusion that should have disappeared long ago. We … are just a part of this long relay."
At this point, the mysterious man stopped.
On the other hand, Han Xiao and Kasuyi had been frozen in place since the beginning. Their eyes widened, and their hearts were in turmoil.
The amount of information contained in these words was so huge that it exceeded their expectations.
"Is it true or not?" Han Xiao found it hard to believe.
This set of words had a strong impact on his heart, and he could not help but doubt the authenticity of this universe secret.
In his previous life, there was no relevant information. Neither the three Universal Civilizations nor the World Tree had revealed any information in this regard.
Could it be that the three Universal Civilizations were not developed enough and had not cracked the secret of the Sanctum?
Could this be the meaning of the mission name 'Relay Across Iterations'?
If this was true, it would be too spectacular. The painstaking research of generations of civilizations would continue to be passed down in this way, like a relay of a torch.
Just thinking about it made him feel a vast sense of history. He could feel the unyielding resilience of generations of Universal Civilizations, as well as the dignity of advanced civilizations that would not passively wait for fate to befall them!
Shocked, Han Xiao did not know what to ask for a moment.
Seeing that the two of them were bewildered, the mysterious man did not continue to explain.
He calmly said, "I know that you will definitely doubt my words now. After all, these secrets have subverted your beliefs, but in the future, when your universe iterations develop to the corresponding level, you will know about these things sooner or later. As for now … let's get back to business."
"Okay." Han Xiao calmed down and temporarily suppressed the shock in his heart.
At this time, there was no way to verify the authenticity of this statement, but he thought of Oathkeeper. This guy had gone to the Sanctum and had not returned yet. When the time came, he should be able to get information about the Sanctum from the Holy Covenant and confirm whether this secret was true or not.
If it was true, then he would have to plan for the long term … The players in his previous life could not reach this level, and this was the first time he had experienced it, so he did not know what to do.
The mysterious man shook his head, changed the topic back to the current situation, and said in a low voice, "This spacetime is in an endless cycle. When the World Reboot Plan is fully activated, it will start a new cycle from the beginning. Because I am an individual in the cycle, even if I die, I will be reborn in the cycle, only keeping my memories. However, outsiders do not belong to this spacetime and will be annihilated here.
If you want to leave, you have to break the cycle before it ends. This way, you can regain your freedom, and I can also be free.
"I met outsiders before the 73rd cycle, the 62nd cycle, and the 59th cycle. The earliest was the Primordial Ones you mentioned. I helped them all like today, but they failed to break the cycle and all failed, so they all died."
After hearing this, Han Xiao's eyes flickered, and he pondered.
This kind of spacetime cycle was similar to the Spacetime Splicing Technology, both of which solidified a timeline. The difference was that the cause of this secondary dimension was many times more complicated than the Spacetime Splicing Technology.
However, this was not the only way for him to leave. The teleportation function of the King was almost the same as the Multi-Dimensional Sky Opening Transportation Device, so he should be able to leave. However, he was more curious about the mysterious man's plan to destroy the world.
"You want us to destroy the world, but you can't possibly be declaring war on the entire Celestial Star Alliance, right? Even if they are the phantoms you mentioned, in this spacetime, their combat power is real. "
"Of course not. The original World Reboot plan was to rebuild after destruction. After the Great Reboot, we used the Information Form transformation technology to reappear. I'm not very clear about the principle, but I know that the execution of this program is an intelligent core made with Information Form technology. We call it the Guardian. The Celestial Star Alliance tried to bind it to the Sanctum in some way to let it survive the destruction of the Great Reboot.
"But in the end, it failed, and there was a mutation. Although we reappeared, we became phantoms and became the secondary dimension with the current cycle of spacetime. The core intelligence became the dimensional consciousness of this secondary dimension … When you came in, you should have seen its avatar, right?"
Han Xiaoxin's heart skipped a beat.
The 'Supreme Guardian' he encountered outside the secondary dimension was actually the avatar of the dimensional consciousness?
The combat information at that time did not seem to reflect any relevant information, and it looked like a living person.
At this time, the mysterious man continued.
"The Guardian is the root of the spacetime cycle. It has no independent thought, only a preset program that rigidly protects this secondary dimension from being invaded by outsiders. As long as you kill it, you can break the cycle, and this can only be done by outsiders …
"Because I'm part of the cycle, no matter what I do to this world, the final result will be the cycle restarting. The Guardian will not actively interfere, and I can't leave this world, so there's no way for me to come into contact with it … However, the existence of outsiders is a variable. Once you invade, the Guardian will definitely chase after you. Only then will you have a chance to kill it here.
"The Guardian's program still has a part of the Information Form transformation technology of the World Reboot Plan. Most of the information forms of the outsiders who died in the cycle would be captured by it. It would then use the dimensional energy to create an extremely similar physical avatar. So far, three batches of outsiders have died, and it already has several avatars."
Doesn't that mean that the more outsiders died, the more Beyond Grade As could be duplicated? A secondary dimension consciousness actually has such a powerful function, even though it's a mutated product … Han Xiaoxin's heart skipped a beat.
The Celestial Star Alliance was indeed the boss of the previous Iteration. A failed product was already so powerful. The development time of the three Universal Civilizations was only a fraction of their time, and their technological level was still nothing in front of them.
"Sounds a little more reliable, but how do we make the Guardian appear?" Han Xiao nodded.
"Because of the mutation of the spacetime cycle, coupled with the underlying logic that the Guardian cannot be tampered with in order to avoid some risks, the appearance of the Guardian in this world is not as free as the outside world, and it can only appear near the carrier. "For example, the Superpower Security Department of the Celestial Star Alliance has a Universal Treasure called the Positioning Star Map, which is one of the carriers of the dimensional consciousness that is automatically formed. It can monitor the entire dimension, and I built a concealment device called the Heaven Concealing Apparatus that can escape its surveillance. With this thing, you were not discovered by the pursuers.
"In short, as long as you get close to the carrier, the Guardian will appear and kill you. This is its core mechanism and cannot be violated. These carriers are all in the important warehouses of the Superpower Security Department, so our plan is to attack the warehouse of the Superpower Security Department, get close to the carrier, and let the Guardian appear and kill it."
"That's not easy …"
Han Xiao pondered.
"I will provide help. You can use the materials of the Eye of Insight, and I won't let the two of you work for free …" the mysterious man said softly. "You and I are both Mechanics, so I will teach you everything I know as a reward for helping me escape."
After saying this, he paused for a moment and added, "That's right.
"Of course, only by breaking the cycle and surviving will your learning be meaningful."
