“Wait a minute. If the ‘universe’ is about to reach its end, is there no one who wants to delay the arrival of that moment?”

Li Wenyuan, who had thought that he still had a lot of time, never expected

that the actions of the ‘Hunters’ would soon bring about the ‘End.’

In his opinion, the universe had not been expanding for long, life had not blossomed everywhere, civilizations had not taken off, and the universe, which was not ‘lively,’ should not have reached the ‘End’ so soon.

The Professor’s attitude was very calm.

“Although the amount of resources for the ‘data universe¹ is almost infinite, the ■number’ of civilizations is limited, which depends on the computing power of the ‘universe calculator.'”

“The more advanced the species, the more complicated its thoughts. The ‘data computation’ required is also greater. Every civilization’s appearance means it is closer to the ‘End’ because the computing power of the ‘universal calculator is limited.”

“However, some ‘attempts’ always need to be put into practice. You might not know yet but attempts to ‘break through dimensions’ using the ‘Super Ether Phase Engine’ have been carried out hundreds of times in the past. However, all of them ended in failure for various reasons.”

“This is the closest we’ve ever gotten to success. Of course, we won’t mind seeing if this path can succeed. It’s even better if it succeeds, as it proves that we can indeed break free from the ‘cycle.’ If we fail, it’s just giving up on this idea in the future ‘cycles.'”

“We’ve already experienced too much. ‘Perdition’ might be difficult for ordinary people to accept, but it’s just a long slumber for us because we know that we’ll advance further the ‘next time.’”

The ‘Professor’ didn’t feel much about the arrival of the ‘End’ and civilization’s destruction, which also seemed to be mankind’s view.

As the ‘Professor’ said, he came from the known 8391st ‘cycle.’ Destruction was

a common occurrence in ‘human civilization.’

In the past, humans might have felt uneasy about that. But with their deeper understanding of the ‘world’ and the social literacy of civilization as a whole rising to an extremely high level, their feelings about that matter had become dull.

Even Li Wenyuan himself didn’t feel much about it.

When he knew that his ‘past self still existed, he was prepared to wait for the next ‘cycle.’ He knew it would happen sooner or later, but he didn’t expect it to happen so soon.

“If that’s the case, why are they still spreading civilizations everywhere? Isn’t that speeding up the destruction of the ‘universe ?

Li Wenyuan immediately thought of that question and asked the ‘Professor’ without hesitation. If he remembered correctly, humans had indeed been doing that. It was the same in the Milky Way and after leaving the Milky Way.

And that matter became even stranger after knowing the relationship between the occurrence of the ‘Big Collapse’ and the number of lifeforms. Shouldn’t ordinary civilizations find ways to delay the arrival of destruction?

“That’s to expand the connection of the ‘special data’ of ‘humans’ in the ‘universe’ as much as possible,” the ‘Professor’ replied.

“This is also the goal of our many ‘cycles.’ We are also searching for a way to ‘break the cycle.’ We believe that if there is even one time that allows ‘us’ to follow the predetermined plan perfectly, it will be of great help.

“Looking back at our civilization’s history, we realized that our experiences were still a little ‘bumpy.’ For example, your death was completely unexpected, proving we were not ‘stable¹ enough.”

“Although all the data will return to the ‘void’ after the ‘cycle,’ as long as there is a connection, no matter how weak it is, it will help stabilize the next ‘cycle.

“The civilizations that are connected to ‘us’ may also have a little disturbance in their ‘data’ in the next ‘cycle,’ which will accelerate the progress of their civilizations. It is a mutually beneficial behavior.”

“And most importantly, don’t think that the ‘biomass’ brought by the ‘sown’ civilizations is a lot. To the entire ‘universe,’ it is just a drop in the ocean.” “The largest source of ‘biomass’ in this ‘universe’ is still the civilizations that were born and grown naturally. We are just a small corner of the entire known universe.”

With such an explanation, Li Wenyuan finally understood. At the same time, he felt a little sad because many civilizations might have been destroyed in the ■Big Collapse’ before they realized the ‘truth of the world’ and could only wait for the next ‘cycle’ to develop.

In the end, Li Wenyuan asked a question that he was most concerned about, which was also the purpose of his visit. That was the traces of mankind.

Since he had contacted the ‘Professor,’ he believed that he would no longer have to look for traces of mankind. He should be able to know the location of humans directly.

After all, from what he had learned, the ‘Professor’ had some kind of connection with human civilization.

The ‘Professor’ answered him frankly, “They’re actually in the ‘Milky Way Galaxy,’ but it’s probably not the Milky Way you know, but the ‘Milky Way’ that’s on the surface.”

At that point, Li Wenyuan immediately understood that that was referring to the ‘Fake Milky Way’ placed outside the ‘Curtain’ in the ‘curtain theory to deceive people.

Of course, that ‘fake’ was only relative to the real Milky Way. In fact, it had all the characteristics of a galaxy cluster and could be regarded as a brand-new galaxy.

The lost empire, the Observer, in the Milky Way once became paranoid because they accidentally saw that ‘Fake Milky Way.’ Ultimately, they decided to drag the entire Milky Way to death to escape from what they thought was a ‘virtual world.’

Although they seemed to have realized the ‘truth of the world’ to a certain extent, it was still a little shallow. It could only be said that their courage was commendable.

However, Li Wenyuan didn’t expect things to go back to the Milky Way in the end. It was like a ‘cycle.’

“This is indeed the ‘destination’ they chose. You will definitely be able to find them there.”

“So, do you have any questions? You’ve been here for a long time. If you don’t get out quickly, you may not be able to see the scene of ‘breaking through the cycle.”‘

“So fast?” Li Wenyuan was slightly taken aback, but he immediately understood that it was most likely because the flow of time there was different.

He felt that only ten minutes had passed, but in reality, a long time had passed. After pondering for a while, he asked about the purpose of the ‘Curtain’ and the ‘similarity’ between the Milky Way and the universe.

In response, the ‘Professor’ showed a mysterious smile and said to him, “If that is the case… perhaps it will be better for you to ask them yourself.” “They are also waiting for you. Don’t forget that no matter what form you take, you are still a ‘human.'”

After saying that, the scene in the ‘End of Time’ changed for the last time.

At first glance, Li Wenyuan didn’t realize what that was, but when he saw the scene of dinosaurs appearing on the planet, he realized that that was Earth’s past.

“The ‘Time Ephemera’ is the embodiment of time. Everything that happens in the universe is seen by ‘Him.'”

“We don’t know why ‘He’ favors us so much, but we must seize that unprecedented opportunity.”

“The ‘Strange Cycle’ is a gift that ‘He’ has given us. You may not understand the power of this gift now, but you will know in the future.

The ‘Professor’s’ voice rang in Li Wenyuan’s ears, but when he looked around, he realized that the ‘Professor’ had disappeared without a trace.

The Earth’s past was like a slide show, gradually speeding up and finally arriving at an unknown period.

A group of upright apes were migrating in the middle of the night. They had already learned how to use wooden sticks to help them walk. One of them was driven by a certain feeling in the long night and looked at the starry sky.

That was the beginning of mankind’s desire for the sea of stars. All the stories began with that look.

The scene turned into nothingness and finally returned to the ring-like shining ‘light belt..’
