Volume 3 Chapter 225 Humans Betrayed Us
When Lin Xu stood in front of the porthole of the Skylark, looking at the huge planetary battleship jumping out of the space jump channel in front of him, he felt his eyelids twitching.
When she first left, the characters painted on Nanzhu’s mothership were all her favorite game characters. How come after not seeing them for eight years, the characters painted on them have become hers?
And it's not just his own appearance that is painted, there are even some things that are obviously like unspeakable books, which are blatantly graffitied on the surface of the planetary battleship.
Just think about how huge a planet-sized battleship would be, and how much could be painted on its surface.
Lin Xu even saw a whole row of sets of notebooks drawn in a certain area.
And he is a man who looks like Nanzhu, and is attacking a girl who looks like himself.
What’s even more terrifying is that Nanzhu is wearing such a paint job and driving a planetary battleship rampaging across the entire galaxy.
Lin Xu believed that because of what Nanzhu and the others did in exterminating the Zerg along the way, even though they themselves might not care or understand it, their actions must have spread among the various civilizations in the entire galaxy.
Lin Xu just thought that when an entire race of a certain civilization was celebrating the annihilation of the Zerg, the overlord of the universe, by an unknown force, the entire nation was watching the secretly filmed powerful warships that wiped out the Zerg forces.
Then I saw the sets of notebooks still on the Nanzhu mothership.
Lin Xu didn’t know what the various civilizations in the entire galaxy thought of Nanzhu, who went out with a notebook.
Anyway, as the male protagonist of the book, Lin Xu's only thought now is that he is extremely angry.
As the saying goes, Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Lin Xu was taking deep breaths to suppress his anger when the planetary battleship had crossed the space jump channel and arrived in this space.
Then, beside Lin Xu, a space channel opened instantly, and Nanzhu jumped out of it and rushed towards Lin Xu.
"Master Lin Xu, I miss you so much."
Lin Xu instantly stretched out his hand and pressed down Nanzhu's head.
Nanzhu was full of questions. It was clearly a long-awaited reunion, and there was no light bulb like Mu Xiyue next to him. Shouldn't he just roll on the sofa or something? Why was he holding my head?
Could it be that Lord Lin Xu has some new way of playing?
But the next moment, Nanzhu's gaze followed the porthole of the Skylark and saw his own mothership in the distance outside the window, with its bright paint on the surface.
Nanzhu suddenly remembered that she was so happy that Lord Lin Xu summoned her that she completely forgot what she had painted on the warship.
"Well, Lord Lin Xu, please listen to my excuse. No, listen to my explanation. There is a reason for this." Nanzhu gestured with excitement, trying to think of a reliable reason.
"Take your time to think about it. I'm waiting for you to make excuses." Lin Xu said with a smile.
"I was wrong, don't slap me in the face." Nanzhu just squatted down with his head in his hands and admitted his mistake.
A moment later, Mu Xiyue's fairy ship also arrived nearby through the space jump channel.
Then Mu Xiyue opened the space channel and entered the Skylark.
Mu Xiyue walked steadily, and her eyes were a little excited when she saw Lin Xu, but she still controlled herself well.
At the same time, she also saw Nanzhu, who was leaning against the corner, thinking about his mistakes.
Mu Xiyue was not surprised by this. As early as when she saw many autonomous mechanical aggregates busy removing the paint on the planetary battleship docked not far away, Mu Xiyue had guessed that this scene would happen.
She even found it incredible that Nanzhu was still standing intact.
At the same time, he felt that Lord Lin Xu was too kind. A repeat offender like Nanzhu should not be allowed to get out of bed for several days.
At the entrance to the planet of human ruins.
A space battle has just ended.
Arisa looked at the galaxy defense system that she had crushed all the way, and her mind was full of doubts.
Although it is a good thing to agree to it, it is impossible for my fellow Apocalypse people to be so weak, right?
Even if he assembled thirteen fleets, it would be impossible for him to completely overturn this construction base hidden in the black hole with just one charge, right?
Unless, that compatriot of yours is not here at all.
This made Arisa a little unhappy.
Only after the dozens of planet-sized welded arms surrounding the entrance to the human ruins were torn into pieces by Arisa did she successfully capture the figure of a family member who was trying to escape.
Only then did she learn from the other party that her compatriot had left here thousands of years ago, not long after he discovered this place.
In other words, the other party knew from the beginning that the Apocalypse Clan, who had already been downgraded, would not be able to open the relics left behind by humans who had been upgraded, so they did not stay and waste time at all.
"Then why don't you leave?" Arisa asked puzzledly as she looked at the figure who was restrained in movement and escorted to her by a robot.
"I didn't give up. I wanted to give it a try, so the master allowed me to stay." Perhaps because Arisa was also from the Apocalypse Clan, he had no resistance to this level of communication.
"I see. So this place was built by you." Arisa, who didn't have a satisfying fight, didn't seem to be in a good mood.
After all, the settings built by the clan are ultimately not as good as those of the real Apocalypse Clan.
"The master left me some facilities, and the rest were expanded by me, Lady Arisa." The family member answered honestly.
"Do you know me?" Arisa's eyes narrowed suddenly.
"Yes, not only do I know you, my master knows you too." The clan member still replied.
"So, who is your master? Is he someone I know?" Arisa asked.
"My master is not someone you know, and you may not even be able to call out his name. As for who the master is, I'm sorry, I can't tell you." The clan member said apologetically.
"Can't you tell me? Why?" Arisa didn't understand.
"Because you are on the side of humans now, right, Lady Arisa." The clan member looked at Arisa, then at Lin Xu and others who had appeared behind Arisa at some point, and said in an affirmative tone.
"Your master hates humans?" Arisa asked.
"Disgusted? No, my master does not dislike humans. He used to be a friend of humans, just like you are now." The family member showed a sarcastic smile. It was obvious that he was not satirizing his master, so he could only be satirizing humans.
"Judging from your expression, is this what happened later?" Arisa asked Lin Xu and the others behind her without any hesitation.
"Yes, humans betrayed my master, Lady Arisa." There was no emotion in the voice of the family member, as if he was stating a fact that had already been accepted.
"Betrayed your master? What happened?" Arisa asked with a frown.
"You will know everything my master has experienced. I just want to remind you that humans are not trustworthy. If you cooperate with humans, you will definitely be betrayed by them, just like my master." The voice of the clan member gradually weakened.
Until there was no more sound.
Arisa looked at Lin Xu.
Lin Xu shook his head and sighed.
"He destroyed his own consciousness. Even through higher dimensions, he cannot be resurrected because his consciousness no longer exists."
"Ha, so that's why I hate riddle humans the most." Nanzhu said with an unhappy look on his face.
"Could it be that he is deliberately trying to alienate the relationship between us?" Lu Yao speculated from a conspiracy theory perspective.
At the same time, it is also a reminder to Arisa not to start to think too much just because of a few words from others.
"Don't worry, I'm not someone who is easily shaken, and I don't think there's anything about the Apocalypse tribe that's worth humans betraying." Arisa herself seemed calm and composed.
Suddenly, both Nanzhu and Lu Yao were speechless .
Although Nanzhu really wanted to say that when they cooperated back then, humans might not have yet to upgrade their dimensions, otherwise the Apocalypse Clan would not have been qualified to cooperate with humans.
But like Arisa now, she is more like Lin Xu's subordinate.
But thinking about it, this statement is not conducive to unity. Besides, I have just been taught a lesson and don’t want to continue to reflect on my mistakes.
So Nanzhu swallowed his words back.
"Let's go, it's time to go and take a look at the ruins." Lin Xu decisively changed the subject.
So the group headed towards the planet in front of them which was the entrance to the human ruins.
However, the words that the family member said before his death finally lingered in the minds of several people. Everyone thought about it, but no one could get the point.
No one thinks that humans have ever betrayed the Apocalypse Clan, not even Arisa.
If a race is full of betrayal and conspiracy, then given the race's structure, it is impossible to accomplish a feat like dimensional upgrading.
But no one thought that the clan member had any reason to lie, especially when he was facing Arisa, a member of the Apocalypse Clan.
So what exactly happened back then can probably only be left for further investigation in the future.
In this way, Lin Xu and his companions entered the atmosphere of the planet.
The atmosphere, which the Apocalypse clan had tried every possible way to break, opened up to Lin Xu and his companions easily.
The nanorobots filling the planet cheered Lin Xu's arrival.
The arrival of Lin Xu and his companions obviously alarmed the planet. Countless creatures were born with the ability to use the power of nanorobots to perform all kinds of magical operations. The most powerful of them also sensed the arrival of Lin Xu and his companions, as well as their extraordinary abilities, through the nanorobots.
So they came to greet Lin Xu and his companions.
The life forms, as huge as mountains, were circling and flying below Lin Xu and his companions, chirping.
But the amazing thing is that all these creatures with magical powers are actually without intelligence.
Even the most powerful ones are only slightly smarter than animals.
"There is no intelligent life on this planet?" Nanzhu was really surprised when he looked at this extremely lush planet.
"The universe is full of wonders, and it's normal that there is no intelligent life." Lu Yao said calmly now.
"But with the concentration of nanorobots on this planet, it would be abnormal if there is no intelligent life, right? Controlling nanorobots requires intelligence, which makes it easier for intelligent creatures to master power, stand out, occupy the top of the food chain, and evolve. In this case, the fact that there is no intelligent life is probably the result of intentional interference." Nanzhu guessed.
"If you interfere." Lu Yao thought for a moment and looked up at the sky.
Nanzhu was stunned for a moment, then reacted and estimated that the interference must have been done by the dead clan member.
Although the clan cannot break into the planet's atmosphere, it is still possible for them to slightly interfere with the evolutionary process on the planet even if they are outside.
"You say we are traitors and villains, but who are the villains?" Nanzhu complained in a low voice.
There were no obstacles on the entire planet, and it didn't take Lin Xu long to open the subspace anchored on the planet.
Entered the ruins left by mankind.
Inside the huge ruins, there are all kinds of devices, laboratories, etc., spreading over a space the size of an entire galaxy.
The laboratories floating in space had already dimmed their lights and stopped working.
But as Zhenxing took over the control center, the laboratories and other facilities in the entire ruins suddenly seemed to come alive.
Above the entrance planet, a huge space channel is open, and opposite this space channel, Lin Xu’s personal space is also open.
A large number of autonomous mechanical aggregates shuttled back and forth between the two spaces. Zhenxing was taking inventory of the various human relics left in the ruins as he did in the past.
Lin Xu took Miss Qiu and once again entered the high-dimensional space within the ruins, where he met his old acquaintance Wang Jian.
"Why are there only two of you this time? Where are your family members?" Wang Jian asked curiously when he saw that only Miss Qiu was with Lin Xu this time.
"They still have work to do, so they continue to be busy." Lin Xu answered as he sat down on the sofa next to the coffee table with the starry sky as the backdrop.
"You guy, even capitalists are not as good at exploiting you. Not only do you have to warm the bed, but you also have to work hard." Wang Jian said with disgust.
"What? Are you jealous?" Lin Xu glanced at Wang Jian.
"Who is envious? Tell me who is envious? How could I be envious? I'm not envious. Let me tell you, I'm so happy staying here alone." Wang Jian looked extremely tough, but in fact he was very vulnerable.
"Okay, okay, you are not envious, you are not envious, so do you know anything about a certain Apocalypse tribe?" Lin Xu started talking about business.
This was also the main reason why he asked Nanzhu, Mu Xiyue, Lu Yao and Arisa to continue working and not come in.
Lin Xu wanted to talk to Wang Jian about the Apocalypse Clan.
Although Lin Xu didn't think that humans had done anything wrong, it would be better not to discuss it in front of Arisa.
So I didn't let Arisa in.
Of course, just not letting Arisa in would be too obvious, so Nanzhu, Mu Xiyue and Lu Yao were also sent away by Lin Xu to continue working.
"Apocalypse tribe? What happened? You sound so serious, it doesn't seem to be about Arisa?" Wang Jian's reaction made Lin Xu frown.
Wang Jian knew Arisa, but he didn't know about the other Apocalypse Clan.
Obviously, this is because when Wang Jian's shadow entered the ruins, humans had not yet cooperated with the Apocalypse tribe member as the Apocalypse tribe member said.
So, that's what happened later?
Or is there something else going on when the Apocalypse clan member talks about humans cooperating with their master?
Or is it that the Apocalypse clan member is really lying?
He even lied to Arisa, a member of the Apocalypse Clan?
Or was it the Apocalypse who lied? Did he even deceive his own clan?
Lin Xu didn’t know.
Afterwards, Lin Xu explained to Wang Jian what had happened since he came to this river system.
Especially when Wang Jian heard that the entrance to the ruins outside the ruins where he was was blocked by a member of the Apocalypse clan for thousands of years, he felt terrible.
"No, what does the Apocalypse tribe want to do? Do they really think that we humans are made of mud and have no temper? They created some Zerg race to create fake humans for experiments. It would have been fine if you just did the experiment, but you also put the human history on that race? What does he want to do? What does he want to do? He even tried to break the ruins right in front of me. What is he trying to do?" Wang Jian became furious.
The fact that he didn't curse loudly shows that he has good manners.
At this point, Lin Xu felt that it was a wise decision not to bring Arisa in.
"Okay, calm down, but you really don't know anything about what's happening ." Lin Xu complained.
"When the ruins were first built, they didn't give me the function to communicate with the outside world. Well, in the previous few ruins, I could also use some methods to communicate with the intelligent life outside in a limited way and obtain some information. But there is not even a single intelligent creature on this entrance planet, who can I communicate with?" Wang Jian was furious again when he talked about this.
He had been wondering why there had never been any intelligent life on this planet. Now he knew that it was the work of the Apocalypse clan.
I didn't get any information about the Apocalypse Clan from Wang Jian.
However, when Wang Jian calmed down, he thought of another thing.
"Cosmic tremors 5 billion light years away? What does that mean?" Lin Xu frowned in confusion.
"It means exactly what it says. Before we set sail, we detected a cosmic tremor 5 billion light years away in the direction of our advance, so we temporarily changed our destination and planned to see what happened there. And I'm afraid that the cosmic tremor will attract more than just us," recalled Wang Jian.
"You mean, the Apocalypse Clan might have also gone to check out the cosmic tremors, so they encountered humans? And cooperated with humans?" Lin Xu guessed with his eyes lighting up.
"Who knows? I said that the crack zone formed by the cosmic tremor will attract not only us and the Apocalypse Clan. This universe is so vast, and there are countless powerful races. They may not be as good as us, but they are also working hard to explore the mysteries of the universe." Wang Jian shrugged.
"So what exactly is cosmic tremor?" Lin Xu frowned.
It was the first time he heard of this term. There was no record of it in human technical data.
"That was also the first time we observed cosmic tremors. Based on our interpretation of this, you can probably understand it as a major earthquake in outer space that caused a crack in a certain space in the universe, forming a widely spreading crack zone," Wang Jian replied.
"What will be the consequences?" Lin Xu asked.
"It may lead to the intersection of our universe and another universe." Wang Jian replied.
"Another universe? Another universe in the multiverse? So, we can go to another universe through the cracks there?" Lin Xu said in surprise.
