Chapter 413 Explanation
I stared at the digital runes in front of me in silence. I should say that this result was not surprising at all.
After calculating the possibility of each logical channel, all assumptions pointed to one result, and each of my remaining data chains also came to a conclusion.
That is——
The explosion was deliberately designed.
I did not come to this planet by accident. The parameters hidden in this explosion were not randomly generated, but were carefully designed and deliberately buried. There was a conspiracy hidden under the countless processes running simultaneously.
A shadow looms over my mind.
In that case, I should -
"What happened to the little people just now?" A question from a humanoid creature interrupted my thoughts.
It turns out that Yan Zhen is a virus problem machine that keeps iterating. He is asking again what happened to the villain the last time.
"You are deliberately avoiding my question." Yan Zhen said. His smile was still on his face, but his eyes were sharp. This boy was always particularly sensitive at this time.
I really want to erase all his memories of the last time, but Yan Zhen is my current collaborator, and the most important piece of me is now rooted in his brain. I need to make a decision, which is to reveal some information to him.
"Let me make a guess." Yan Zhen said, "Just now, under the simulation algorithm of the maze, those little people dug up an ancient treasure."
【……】
"Although I can't see clearly what happened, but that villain's world was destroyed, right?"
I agreed with silence.
"They dug up an indescribable alien evil god similar to the ancient god Cthulhu and destroyed the world?"
[There is no Cthulhu.] You don't even need to watch to know what's going on in his mind. Why do you always think of alien civilizations as giant octopuses? Can't you make it more beautiful?
"What is that?"
[There are information libraries with more than trillions of time units, the remains of an ancient civilization. In the long river of time in the past, these information libraries are the relics they once left behind.] I said, [We call one of the top civilizations the Esati civilization, the forerunner of the known universe civilization. From the perspective of your earth-level civilization, they have already reached the realm of God first.]
Yan Zhen's eyes sparkled, and he pursed his lips and listened quietly to my story.
[They reached the pinnacle that intelligent creatures could reach, using technology to make themselves omniscient and omnipotent, at least that’s what they thought. Later, they were even ready to open up the truth of things, which was one of the biggest mistakes they made.]
“What is the principle of things?”
[It is the rule of the universe.] I said, [The simplest meaning of opening up the truth of things is to reshape the rules of the world and make your wishes come true.]
“That sounds great.”
[You Lola people have this description of quantum physics: God rolling dice. Imagine if everyone is God, everyone can roll dice, everyone can create their own laws, and everyone can reshape reality and reverse cause and effect, then what would the universe be like? ]
Yan Zhen frowned, "...will contradict each other, it sounds like a chaotic disaster."
Yes, you see, even the Homo sapiens of this earth-level civilization knows that unlimited desires will only bring disaster. I smiled bitterly in my heart.
【The truth of things must exist. Otherwise, the foundation of facts will collapse, and even the universe will cease to exist. But when an intelligent race has broken through one impossible miracle after another, they think they have become omnipotent supermen, and they think they are gods who can conquer all laws. The forerunners are also carried away by this, and when they find that they have lost control, they have gone too far.】
“…”
【At the end of the Collapse, the surviving Forerunners sealed everything up. At this time, they finally realized that the truth of things is a taboo that cannot be touched, and it can never be opened.】I paused, 【But they made a second mistake. After the self-program that created the Guardian Sentinel realized that it was going to seal itself completely, it produced an unexpected independent intelligence. It escaped from the observation of the Forerunner survivors and escaped a part. At that time, it was very young and could not see any harm. After that, many time units passed, long enough for this independent intelligence to absorb a lot of knowledge to grow, so long that the traces of the Forerunner civilization that once existed almost disappeared. At the same time, new civilizations in the universe rose like bamboo shoots after a spring. That independent intelligence began to carry out its actions in the universe, spreading all kinds of deceptive lies. It has only one purpose, which is to trick new civilizations into opening the Forerunner's treasure. At this point, we have to mention an organization.】
"organize?"
【This organization is called the Black Box Society. Let me explain here first. In fact, there are always many new civilizations that are eager to seek ancient heritage (not just the Esati civilization). The reason is very simple, because the ancient civilization heritage always contains a large number of technological resources that are beyond the times. Even if you can master one ten-thousandth of them, you will have an advantage in the development of cosmic civilization. But this brings up a problem. Since the ancient heritage contains more advanced and powerful technology than your original civilization, and you are not on the same level at all, can you really control it? History has proven that there are countless devastating disasters caused by the use of ancient forbidden technology. 】
"You mean your Cyber Dragon couldn't find a suitable mate and planned to blow up my Earth."
This is different.
"And my school has to sneak away every day." He sighed , "It's really a disaster."
I ignored him and continued, "So within the Galactic Federation, there is a basic rule that it is strictly forbidden to dig up and illegally use the remains of ancient civilizations. Putting aside the logic of the matter I mentioned, there are too many incredible and dangerous things in ancient civilizations. The result of the earth-level civilization rashly touching the taboo relics is often an irreparable tragedy. 】
"It's like all the little people were destroyed in an instant just now. I can roughly understand it. Then why was I able to come out after seeing this scene just now?" Yan Zhen said.
"This has to do with the algorithm of my consciousness fragment protective shell. It thinks this is something you must know at this time."
"What about the black box?"
[One of the ultimate goals of the Black Box Society is to open up the truth of things from the Forerunners' relic information library, to freely reshape the universe with their ideas, to make everyone's wishes come true, and probably for the welfare of galactic creatures and other nonsense. Yes, the independent intelligence I just mentioned has the same goal as the Black Box Society. It is also in the Black Box Society and is one of the earliest ancestors of the Black Box Society. Over the past ten thousand years, they have been like invisible shadows, spreading lies and conspiracies in the dark. ]
"It's an evil organization!"
[Evil?] I sneered, [As far as I know, tens of thousands of civilizations have been manipulated by the Black Box. If only some lives are lost, it is considered that the Black Box is showing mercy. Most of the time, it is often the complete destruction of a country or even an interstellar civilization. For a small experimental result, they may even transform all the intelligent creatures of an entire civilization into cabbages overnight.]
Yan Zhen's eyes widened, and then he asked an idiotic question: "Why cabbage?"
【I am just giving an example.】
"Why cabbage? Cauliflower disagrees!"
I confirmed one thing, his cerebral cortex is indeed simpler than that of a trilobite. I told him that my point is that the danger of the Black Box Society is far beyond his ability to understand. The Galactic Federation has been spreading many dark legends about the Black Box Society. But most of the time, people have no way of telling where the tentacles of the Black Box Society are.
They often use all kinds of lies to paint a rosy picture, and most of the time they choose a few puppet agents to manipulate the situation. By the time they discover something, all the bad consequences may have already occurred.
He nodded in agreement.
But I think it is necessary to reinforce his education on the dangers of black boxes.
In a story I know, for example, the vision of a civilized race was manipulated. As long as they had the desire to reproduce and love in their hearts, their partners would immediately be hallucinated as the monsters they feared most, and they would hallucinate the things they feared most as their lovers, which led to the entire race being almost exterminated due to the termination of reproduction and various suicide behaviors. For example, after a civilized race was plotted against by the Black Box Society, the entire race turned into zombies that wanted to eat the brains of their own race to survive, and a zombie frenzy was staged on several planets.
Yan Zhen blinked and asked, "I suddenly thought of a question."
【What?】
"Can the Heart Eater possess a corpse?"
[Theoretically, yes.]
"If you possess a corpse, then it would be a zombie!"
Why is this person's mind so jumpy? Before I could react, he suddenly asked, "Are all the members of the Black Box Club also Heart Devourers like you?"
[Perhaps there will be a few Heart Devourers.] The Black Box Society has a very long history, and there are certainly some who abandon their original bodies and adopt spiritual bodies to continue their lives.
"So the members of the Black Box Society are likely to possess ordinary people and infiltrate their society to spread lies and weave conspiracies."
I didn't say anything, just a few words, he could understand this level, his intelligence surprised me. But the boy's next words were even more surprising.
"You suddenly told me so many things about evil organizations today." Yan Zhen said, "Is the explosion accident that happened when you came to our Earth also related to the Black Box Society?"
Bullseye. Okay, I have to raise my assessment of his cortical level.
【I suspect it is them.】
"So!" Yan Zhen clapped his hands together excitedly, "Next, you and I will fight against the evil organization Black Box Society, right?"
[Of course not.]
I told him to quickly put a lid on my culture chip to prevent those little microorganisms from continuing to launch missiles to destroy my poor laboratory.
By the time he had the lid replaced, it was time to return to Earth.
…
…
Yan Zhen was decomposed into particles by me again.
He entered the expressway.
After a few seconds, he didn't come back.
I glanced at the link gateway, and sure enough, the vortex was in an unstable state of vibration again. And Yan Zhen's data was fluctuating wildly like crazy waves.
Because of the incompleteness of my thought sequence, I admit that I was a little careless. This vortex gap was originally unstable, and Yan Zhen's information data was now wildly deviating in the space storm. If he was not careful, he might be teleported to a place in an unknown dimension, or more likely to be teleported to a random point in time and space.
I carefully adjusted the data link. This human was my only partner at the moment, and his brain was rooted with important fragments of my thoughts (which was also one of the reasons for his unstable transmission). He was teleported to an unknown dimension or unknown time and space, or to the depths of the vacuum universe. This outrageous result was unacceptable to me.
I have to get him back safely.
After adjusting the data several times in succession, I modified the parameters again after calculating the gravitational coefficient and the direction of the particles.
The vortex gap disappeared with a bang.
[No failure.] Lines of rune equations were suspended in my field of vision, showing the coordinates where Yan Zhen was transferred.
The coordinates showed that he was catapulted into the experimental building of his school, the Fourth Middle School.
When I found him, he had just come down from the laboratory building.
"Is your teleportation really okay? I was just teleported to several places," he told me.
During this period of time, Yan Zhen was indeed teleported to an unknown location, perhaps an unknown dimension, or perhaps an unknown time and space.
I checked his physical data and found nothing unusual. I was relieved and joked, "Did you crush a hamster again this time?"
"No." Yan Zhen said, "I was teleported to a mountain, and I saved a puppy, but when I was teleported again, the puppy was swept away by the storm."
Trivial matters in unknown places and time and space, I don’t think these need to be included in the calculation.
In the near future
(Tita Mountains in Hope Township)
The puppy Caicai is trying hard to climb up the rock. There is a shark tooth in front that he needs to take care of.
It secretly followed him all the way to this place. In the dog's simple concept, he must not lose him. Shark Tooth is something that the dog must take care of.
But the shark tooth suddenly disappeared. The puppy anxiously turned around, trying to smell the shark tooth in the air. Soon, it found the direction. There was a faint smell there. It jumped up, wagging its tail and pounced on the stone.
Then its feet slipped, the puppy screamed, and its body slid down uncontrollably. Just when it was about to fall off the cliff, a pair of warm hands hugged it.
The puppy raised its head with lingering fear. It was caught by a black-haired boy. It recognized him. He was Yan Zhen, the owner of the ship. It couldn't help but bark happily, "Woof woof! I'm so happy to see you!!"
"You almost fell down ." Yan Zhen muttered, he looked around, "Where is this place? Did that guy make a mistake in teleportation again?"
The puppy barked, "Where is Sharktooth?! Let's go find him together!"
But in the next moment, a white light flashed on Yan Zhen's body, and before the puppy Wang could make a sound, it was also caught in the high-speed ejection.
…
…
In the past several years ago
(Somewhere on Earth)
In the blink of an eye the puppy fell to the ground again.
It looked around in confusion. This was not the strange, bare mountain, nor was it the boat full of delicious food.
Familiar taste, familiar scenery.
This is the place it once knew.
The puppy became excited, sniffing the scent and rushing towards the familiar house.
"Woof!! I'm back woof!!"
Yan An walked out of the door and saw the dog wagging its tail at the door, and couldn't help but smile. He reached out to tease the dog, and saw that the dog was very familiar with him and rubbed his thigh directly.
He turned to An Yuan and said, "There is a dog here. It seems to be a stray dog. Should we keep it?"
An Yuan also came out. Seeing how friendly and adorable the puppy was, she nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, give it a name."
"I've made up my mind," Yan An said, "Let's call this dog Justice."
