Resurrection Empire

Page 635

There are two rows of chairs on the left and right sides of the hall.

He could even see outside the door of the hall, which was the city he saw earlier.

A faint figure appeared in front of him.

Different from those outside who could see their faces clearly, the silhouette of this figure was extremely thin, like a condensed cloud, with only a faint halo, and the facial features could not be distinguished.

Tai Hong was silent for a while before asking: "What's your name? How should I call you, should I just call you the city lord?"

Weirdly, he deliberately skipped the key information, but instead asked the other party's name and title.

This is very particular.

When others ask about their names and titles, they will not be too wary, but will answer subconsciously, but this will reveal a lot of information, such as culture, race, inheritance, customs and other details are hidden inside.

Although Taihong is not as smart and alert as the childish girl, and he plays a supporting role in the duo, but since he can be selected by the pilgrims to become the backbone of the coalition army, he is still capable.This is the basic quality of an astute agent-level god-level demon.

Hearing the words, the city lord seemed to be lost in memory, "My name? Sorry, I forgot. Really. You can call me the city lord, or the administrator."

Taihong continued to ask: "What do you mean? Can you forget your name?"

The city lord responded, "Yes, this is true, and to me, the name is just a code name, what matters is my identity and position."

Tai Hong: "You just said that was the first destruction? Is there a second time? How many times in total?"

The city lord didn't answer, but just moved his fingers.

Taihong's consciousness was immediately pulled back into the void of the universe.

He saw the source star galaxy again.

This is another reincarnation and cycle, and on the surface there is almost no difference from before.

Tai Hong almost wanted to say that this was just a replay, but soon realized it was not.

The position of the first primitive village on the source star is indeed the same as before, but the layout of the wooden houses and the distribution of surrounding vegetation are slightly different.

The following processes of development, war, escape, establishment of empire, branch, war, etc. are also highly similar to the previous ones. The main context is almost the same, but there are differences in some details.

This time, at the last moment, Taihong's consciousness was still pulled back to the source star, and returned to the stone hall again.

Tai Hong immediately turned his head and looked outside the city.

The picture is slightly different from before. At this time, the outside of the city is completely empty, and there is no bustling ancient city and people coming and going.

There are no two rows of chairs in the stone hall, which is also empty.

Afterwards, Taihong saw the first row at the front of the hall, the first chair appeared out of thin air, and another human silhouette appeared on the chair, bathed in strong light.

When the bright light dimmed, Tai Hong saw a woman with a mediocre face, who was frowning tightly as if she was in deep thought.

Taihong has an impression of this woman.When he entered the city earlier, he had seen this woman on the street at the gate of the city.

Immediately afterwards, the picture changed back to the previous appearance, with two rows of chairs and a figure.

This figure is the city lord: "This is the second destruction, and it is also a complete reincarnation. The woman you saw just now is my first companion."

Tai Hong: "How many companions do you have in total? What happened at the last moment just now?"

City Lord: "Except for you and your companions, I had a total of 99 companions, including myself. Before the two of you arrived, there were exactly [-] residents in this nameless city. As for your What do you mean by the last moment? What are you referring to?"

Chapter 654 The Intruder's Regret Medicine

Taihong asked again: "Why did quasars explode? What happened to humans? According to what you said, humans have been destroyed 99 times in this way so far? What is the significance? What is the picture?"

City Lord: "Of course the explosion of a quasar is not an act of human beings. I call it Zerro's circulator. Human beings are the computing units in this circulator. As for the meaning... Such reincarnation is of course meaningless to human beings, but to human beings. For Jerome, this is a normal production process, just like humans use machine assembly lines to produce dolls. Jerome also needs products produced by humans.”

Taihong continued to ask: "What is Zheluo? What is calculated by the computing unit? What is the product?"

City Lord: "It's okay, don't worry, when your companion arrives, I will tell you from the beginning. Her thinking is more complicated than yours, so it will take a little longer."

Tai Hong suddenly had some bad feeling in his heart.

He subconsciously wanted to say, aren't you afraid of us leaking the secret?But he changed his mind again, if the other party has really crossed nearly one hundred thousand times of perishing reincarnation, then he must be too old to imagine, and he must have amazing wisdom, not stupid, so the other party must have enough knowledge to ensure that he cannot leak the secret ability.

What is this ability?Forget it, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, we probably won't be able to get out of here.

This is Tai Hong's guess.

But Taihong didn't ask any more questions, he could only say that he had to bow his head under the eaves, and he would know whether it was a donkey or a horse, so Taihong only put on the appearance of an old god waiting in peace.

Sure enough, after waiting for a little while, the childish girl also appeared in the hall.

Different from Taihong's calm appearance at this time, the young girl who was supposed to be the backbone of wisdom was full of vigilance and suspicion.She put her emotions clearly on her face.

This is very abnormal.You must know that among the two of Taihong and Zhinv, Zhinv is usually the one who has a better chance of winning, but Taihong basically has no idea.

Unexpectedly, this time, she was the first to show her timidity.Usually he doesn't like to use his brain, and Tai Hong, who waits for the young girl to make up his mind, seems even more unfathomable.

The childish girl saw Tai Hong next to her, and immediately pointed at the light and shadow of the city lord, and said directly: "You are lying, what is your intention? No, you have a heavy responsibility, right? We won't believe you."

Facing the other party's accusations, the city lord did not panic, nor did he become angry after being exposed. He just said lightly: "I am only responsible for telling the story. You can judge for yourself whether you believe it or not. I am not in a hurry. Now, you have to listen to this story?"

According to the childish girl's reaction, Tai Hong was subconsciously planning not to listen, but he never thought of the childish girl but said: "You want to talk, why don't you listen? Say it."

The first sentence Cheng Cheng said made Taihong and Zhinv fall into great confusion.

"The origin of human beings is not the ancient disk galaxy, but in a place called the Milky Way, which is located in the Lania Kea super galaxy group. The distance between the Milky Way and the ancient disk galaxy is greater than one billion light-years."

"What!" Taihong and the young girl exclaimed in unison.

The childish girl said one more thing, "You really were making up a story earlier, since Yuan Xing is not the place of origin, what do those primitive people mean?"

The owner of the city: "That's a human being who returned to the ancestors. Don't interrupt me. I will continue. When I finish speaking, you will understand."

Childish girl: "Okay, you continue."

"In very ancient times, human beings were born on a planet named Earth in the solar system in the Milky Way. After tens of thousands of years of development, they have begun to touch the technological level of quantum physics, and have begun to spy on positrons and other objects. The mystery of antimatter began to make a bold judgment on the life of the universe. Human beings at that time boldly asserted that the life of the universe was more than 10 billion years, and the diameter was 100 billion light years. This sentence is correct, but it is also wrong. To be precise, It is the life span of the observable universe originating from the singularity that human beings can touch. It is more than 900 billion years and its diameter is 100 billion light-years. But this sentence is both correct and wrong. If matter and energy are considered, the observable universe The lifespan of the universe is indeed more than 900 billion years, but the space itself has existed for a long time, far beyond human imagination. Outside the observable universe, it is an unknown singularity. Yes, there is far more than one singularity in this universe. Unknown The singularity created an observable universe of other life, which had nothing to do with humans."

"However, a civilization from other observable universes came to the observable universe of human beings, and began a long wandering, looking for a place to stay. In the end, they were very lucky or perhaps inevitable through the messages sent by the earth humans themselves. Found the solar system, and discovered the only truly intelligent race in the observable universe, that is, humans on Earth. What is even more sad is that humans at that time were stuck in front of the final checkpoint before controlled nuclear fusion, even if the enemy was weak enough It’s not even as good as one billionth in its heyday, and real human beings have absolutely no power to resist, and even escaping from the solar system is an extravagant hope.”

"Of course, humans finally made an attempt. A scientist discovered the enemy that was gradually approaching the earth by observing the changes in gravitational waves, and made preparations hundreds of years in advance. Wealth, at the same time, collected as many as one million cryons, trying to snatch the arrival of unknown enemies, using an immature and unstable nuclear fusion engine to push a space carrier to flee aimlessly to In the deep space of the universe, try your luck."

By this time, Taihong and Zhinv actually couldn't decide whether to believe it or not.

If the city lord is making up a story, the story is too absurd, and there is no sincerity in lying at all.

Tai Hong couldn't help asking: "What's next? Did you escape successfully?"

The city lord finally had a human-like reaction and sighed, "It failed. The first-generation nuclear fusion engine was indeed unreliable, and it didn't last long. However, it didn't fail completely."

Taihong: "What do you mean?"

"The invading civilization arrived on Earth first, destroyed everything easily, and didn't even make contact with the humans on Earth at that time. Because they thought it was meaningless. I only found out afterward that their last failure stemmed from trying to communicate with another born Civilizations coexist in the same observable universe, but the time is infinite. Even if the peace has been maintained for tens of billions of years, in the end, when the footprints of both parties can travel to every place in the observable universe, there must be a loser. "

Childish girl: "You lied again, since all human beings are extinct, what's going on with you and us now?"

"But in the process of destroying human beings, the invading civilization analyzed the existence form and thinking structure of the human beings on the earth. They saw the potential of the human beings on the earth, and also found a way to develop and utilize this low-level civilization in their own eyes. They regretted it and thought that Humans on Earth should not be completely wiped out. The escape ship is their medicine for regret. And I am also one of the medicines."

Chapter 655 At the mercy of Zero, the time goes backwards

"They found the escape ship and provided new energy sources before the escape ship's radioactive reserve batteries were depleted. At this time, only a small part of the millions of frozen sleep chambers failed due to lack of power. They thawed first A small number of people. That includes me."

"They call themselves Jerome, and they don't shy away from destroying human civilization on Earth. They explained their motives for destroying mankind to me and another group of people who woke up at the same time. Although we are angry, we don't even have the idea or courage to accuse them .”

"Thinking in another way, if human beings have just experienced such a demise, when they discover another hidden danger, as long as they have the ability, they will definitely choose to act first. Just like the war between human beings and epidemics in history. If viruses also have wisdom, then the vaccines and antibiotics researched by humans are weapons used to reduce dimensionality and destroy another race. Humans use their own weapons to destroy smallpox, which is a real case. The mutation and escape of viruses is the virus civilization In a sense, although Jerome destroyed mankind, he helped mankind leave the fire by saving the escape ship, which was kind enough. At least that’s how we looked at it at the time.”

The city lord still said, "In the end, we chose to believe in Jerome."

"But you actually have no choice, you can only trust and obey." The childish girl interrupted, "The strengths of the two sides are completely out of proportion."

The juvenile girl seems to be making corrections, but it sounds like she also believes in the story of the city lord.

The city lord hummed, "Yes. And after many years, I realized that Jerome was playing and deceiving us from the very beginning. We thought Jerome had a special meaning in each other's language, but later we found out, This is taken from the ancient language that was popular in ancient times on the earth. The so-called Zhe Luo means zero, which is zero. This zero has two meanings, one of which is 'meaningless', and the other may also represent Zhe Luo The highest-level technology you hold—return to zero.”

Young girl: "What is zeroing?"

City Lord: "Let me tell you in order."

Young girl: "Okay, sorry. You continue."

City Lord: "When we first woke up, Jerome did not disclose how we planned to resettle humans. My companions and I are still in a state of panic. We already know that we are the last survivors of humans."

"It took billions of years for the earth to experience countless disasters, and countless complex evolutions of countless creatures, before finally condensing the intelligent race of primates. We are so lucky and so strong. We We had the opportunity to leave a strong mark in the universe, but in the end we were forced to face the fate of destruction. All of this was only in the mind of Jerome. We are both afraid and unwilling to do so.”

Listening to the city lord telling the past in a flat tone, Zhinu and Taihong couldn't help substituting themselves into that scene in their hearts, and they didn't know how to treat it.

"After a long time of thinking, we decided to take the initiative. In any case, we cannot let the human beings on the earth perish. Even if we live without dignity, we must live. Only when we are all alive, can we have hope. Therefore, we choose to surrender, Surrender completely. We gave up our personality, and even forgot our own name. We offered the most sincere loyalty to Jerome and asked each other, 'May I ask if there is anything human beings can help, as long as we let us Live, we'll all do it'."

"But this is in the hands of Jerome. Our racial sentiments have been completely seen through. If we take the initiative, then the bottom line will be lower. This is also the truth that I realized later. At that time, we were dominated by fear. Made this huge mistake. At that time, we didn't realize that since Jerome chose to save the escape ship, he was asking for the human beings on the earth. We should have been able to use the attitude of burning jade and stone in exchange for a little better for human beings. A little bit of the situation. In short, I want to say sorry to you. We failed to seize the opportunity and made all mankind pay the price, and you two are actually victims of our fault."

Taihong and Zhinv gradually fell silent.The two realized more and more clearly that the story of the city lord might be true.The city lord's apology is also true.

"After that, Jerome told us not to be anxious. We will continue to accept human body freezing first, and then just wait in peace. They will arrange a place for human beings and find a new home."

"When I woke up again, I had crossed a distance of at least one billion light years and came to the ancient disk galaxy located on the Great Wall of Sloan. At that time, I thought that Jerome just randomly chose an elliptical galaxy as the new home of mankind. You know, everything is the most insidious calculation. The ancient disk galaxy is the closest to the Milky Way, and the size, structure, gravitational environment, planetary distribution, and star characteristics all perfectly meet the needs of Jerome. At that time, their Even zeroing can only perfectly cover small elliptical galaxies like the ancient disk galaxy."

"After that, Jerome awakened all the remaining survivors. Among them, more than 80 frozen sleeping chambers failed to thaw due to various reasons, but Jerome thought it was harmless. The remaining population of nearly [-] is enough To help mankind reproduce and become a complete civilization. Jerome did not let us land on the source star immediately, but chose another nearby galaxy. Jerome gave us the right to name the star cluster. After discussion, I took the Earth In ancient history, the Southern Song Dynasty lived in a corner, but we had to remind ourselves not to forget our homeland, so we named it the Nanxiang Star Cluster, and then began to name many planetary systems in the Nanxiang Star Cluster according to the ancient galaxy naming rules. "

"In the end, Jerome built a small star body with a gravitational engine near the planet c in the South Nine galaxy. In order to create this asteroid, Jerome extracted a large number of structures on the South Nine c, and let the planet It became an olive shape. We witnessed the process of Zerro using a force field to extract planetary material and then build an asteroid on the spacecraft."

"Since then, human beings have begun to reproduce on the surface of this asteroid. After ten generations, about two to three hundred years, the population of human beings on the earth has returned to 300 million. Jerome told us that we can go to the source star to become a real civilization. But Jerome said that they are curious about the evolution process of humans on Earth, so they want to watch humans on Earth start from scratch.”

"I dare not object, I just ask Jerome what should I do. Jerome showed me a group of apes. I don't know how Jerome did it, but the result is that they changed human genes and reversed human evolution In just ten generations, a group of people have degenerated back to the appearance of ape-men in ancient times. These ape-men are almost exactly the same as the ancestors of human beings recorded in ancient books, just like...back in time."

"Jeruo told me that I can only take this group of apes to the source star. Others will continue to be frozen as hostages. Only after the newborn humans from the apes complete their scientific experiments will they have true freedom .”

"I still don't have the right to choose, I can only let it be at its mercy."

Childish girl: "Then you took the apes to Yuan Xing?"

City Lord: "Not just me, but also dozens of my companions at the time, that is, the small group of people who were thawed at the beginning. Our positions are all administrators. Before we set off, we tried to talk to Jerome I talked about the conditions once, and it succeeded. Facts have proved that Jerome has a great need for human beings. Jerome cares about human emotions very much. In human emotions, there are hidden treasures Jerome needs. Unfortunately, this is what I realized later Makes sense."

Chapter 656 Perishing in Silence

"Originally, Zheluo wanted to destroy those frozen sleep chambers that failed to thaw. We asked that this matter should be done by ourselves. I told Zheluo that human beings are a civilization that values ​​inheritance and need to find a sense of self-identity in history. Only Only when we personally bury these old people who cannot be awakened can we completely cut off from the old days. Jerome agreed to this request and gave us the more than [-] seemingly abandoned frozen sleep chambers."

"We brought the cultivation base to the source star, and let the cultivation base begin to revolve around the source star, becoming the second moon of the source star. Afterwards, I placed on the surface of the source star the moon that was raised in a simulated mountain forest since childhood. , a group of primitive villages who have already practiced basic survival skills. At the same time, we put more than [-] frozen sleeping chambers into an erupting active volcano on the source star."

Hearing this, the childish girl finally couldn't help interrupting again, "Did you really destroy those sleeping chambers?"

"No." The city lord finally swept away the previous decline, and said in a slightly proud tone: "In order to help the new primitive humans go through the evolutionary process on the source star and avoid the risks caused by some natural disasters, Zheluo gave us Provided some mature technical means. Of course, they did not teach the principle. On the way to leave the Nanjiu galaxy to the source star, we first observed with a passive telescope that Jerome took the asteroid to the depths of the ancient disk galaxy .”

"Although we don't know what Jerome is going to do, it is obvious that we have been out of Jerro's vision for a short time. We decided to take a gamble and dismantled some of the consumables on the spacecraft to make a shield, which saved the volcanic eruption. These freezers. Of course, visually, those freezers have indeed fallen into the volcano. Jerome didn’t see through the destruction video we provided.”

"The next thing is the first time you have seen the entire process of human beings on the source star from origin to extinction. During those 1000 million years, many things happened. About 50 years later, the ancient In the central black hole of the disk galaxy, a super-large quasar appeared that did not have any gravitational reaction with the nearby stars. At this time, the human beings on the source star have just passed the electrical age and entered the information age."

"Subsequently, we were horrified to discover that a strange icosahedral structure appeared in the atomic electron cloud in the entire ancient disk galaxy. We didn't understand what the use of this thing was, but Jerome didn't intend to answer our doubts. Again Later, we discovered that the minds of the newly born human beings on the Origin Star were shackled, and their life expectancy began to shorten. We began to realize that something was wrong, but we didn’t dare to ask and question it, and we only continued to play the role of good managers.”

"Until nearly tens of millions of years passed, we finally relied on the sublimator's technology to feed back and found a solution to change the health of the human body through a cell replacement solution. We repaired all the frozen sleep chambers that could be repaired, and restarted them to save the human body. The lives of all compatriots, exactly 10 people. We first tried to awaken one person from the 10 people. Then, taking advantage of the machine empire just reactivating the source star, we released her, trying to make her Integrating into the new society on Origin Star will bring some changes.”

"Unfortunately, this attempt failed. She died before she could even gain a foothold. She was my first companion that you saw earlier. After her death, her consciousness did not completely dissipate, but remained in the In the established resistance base, I have been waiting. This resistance base is the nameless city. Obviously, Jerome did not expect that in the space where quasars have modified the rules of the universe, consciousness is built on the original normal rules. Next, the original humans from the Milky Way Earth really have souls, and there will be a world after death. Obviously, the Milky Way or our observable universe endowed Earth humans with some characteristics that are beyond Jerome's understanding."

"Later, 10 years later, the mechanical empire had fallen. The pilgrims were about to win the final victory. At this time, the zeroing happened. Only then did we realize that it seemed to be an auxiliary computing device, but also The essence of the quasar, which may be the settlement of Jerome, is actually a weapon. I named it the zero-return weapon. Under the illumination of the zero-return weapon, only stars and black holes can compete, and all other solid matter is scattered , and even the warping subspace channel that humans worked so hard to build was shattered."

"We who are lurking in the source star are obviously not immune. But at this time, one of my companions, an even more amazing administrator, found a way to perfectly combine Zerro's technology with human technology , can create an absolutely static subspace.”

"Before death came, we exhausted the energy of the vehicle that Jerome gave us, and the unnamed city and the surrounding area used to be a volcano, but now it's just a small hill covered with dense forests. The many refrigerated warehouses that came down were sent into the static subspace at the same time, pinning their hopes on the future."

"Successful, the static subspace resisted the impact of the zero-returning weapon, and I also entered the afterlife after death. My consciousness also survived, and I saw my first companion."

Taihong asked: "Didn't you say you still have dozens of companions? What about them?"

The owner of the city: "To establish a static subspace, in addition to the technology of Jerome, it also requires huge computing power. We stole Jerome's brain-squeezing technology and exhausted the brainpower of all my other companions in an instant. Their brains The quantum entanglement spiral of thought completely shattered and completely disappeared. Only I survived in a sense."

Taihong: "I see."

The owner of the city: "After the Angelica zero weapon returned to silence, the elementary particles generated by the shattered protons and neutrons quickly aggregated again. After only a few thousand years, countless planets, space meteorites and even space dust reappeared. The location is the same as before, and even the topography of the planet is exactly the same as before. This is the true meaning of returning to zero. Everything returns to the original point, but there is no life anymore. The aircraft we once settled have also become the source star. The second real moon. This is the only difference between the source galaxy and the Milky Way solar system. Afterwards, my first companion and I continued to observe the source star in the afterlife world. We saw that a ship belonging to Jerome The aircraft came to the source star and quickly rebuilt the planet's ecosystem, and everything returned to the way it was before we put primitive people on the source star."

"Next, Jerome's aircraft launched a new batch of primitive people, and what happened later is the second destruction of reincarnation that you have seen."

"We finally realized that the reason why Jerome asked us to be managers was precisely because they believed that humans know humans best, and we need to complete it once, and then we can keep copying homework and repeating everything we have done before. .”
