Game of the World Tree - Chapter 981

981. Chapter 973: The Truth and the End (I): Researcher’s Diary

Eve had imagined many scenes after transcending the Segos Universe.

He had imagined that after transcending, he would appear directly above the Blue Planet, and the towering giant trees would instantly overturn the three views of the Blue Planet humans, and the players would realize that “Elf Kingdom” is not just a game.

He also imagined that after transcending, he would encounter the backup plan left by the “Creator”, or that he would encounter stronger enemies after leaving the Segos Universe.

However… He never thought that the outside of the Segos Universe would be like this.

He never thought that he would see the official language of the Blue Planet in this mysterious force that was suspected of “creating” the Segos Universe, and even heard the familiar name of the Blue Planet United Nations…

At this moment, Eve’s perception of time was confused.

He suddenly didn’t know what era he was in…

The hall, which seemed like a laboratory, was full of a decayed atmosphere, and it seemed to be quite old. The machines that were still running seemed to be just following the procedures that had not yet completely failed.

On the ground, one could even see a lot of auxiliary intelligent machines that had lost their energy and had been stopped for who knows how long. Even the notebook made of unknown material lying quietly on the table seemed to have experienced a long time…

At this moment, Eve suddenly didn’t dare to open the notebook.

He was afraid that he would see an answer that would shock him even more.

However, before checking everything here, he still had one thing to do himself…

He had to do this first to prepare himself mentally.

Taking a deep breath, Eve picked up a piece of mechanical fragment that seemed to be the oldest on the ground.

He gently closed his eyes, and the power of the law outlined on the fragment, and the fragment gradually glowed, and the decayed appearance gradually faded, slowly returning to a smooth and translucent appearance as if it had just left the factory.

This was Eve using the power of [Retracement] to reverse the decay and corruption of the fragment.

After doing all this, he was silent.

Because He has [retraced] the manufacturing age of this mechanical fragment…

Its oldest part is about 2.7 billion years old, and some parts seem to have been updated later, with a time span of about 530 million years.

It has been broken since more than 2.1 billion years ago.

In other words, this hall that seems to be a laboratory, and even this entire star gate, is likely to have existed for a full 2.7 billion years!

2.7 billion years! And it has been running perfectly for at least 530 million years!

After that, problems have occurred one after another until today…

After getting this number, Eve’s heart was even more shocked.

Not only because of the long time, but also because of the specialness of this number.

He clearly remembered that the seven reincarnations of the Segs universe also added up to 2.7 billion years!

Not only that, 530 million years is a special number. In the origin of the Segos Universe, in the first temple of the universe, the stone tablet that records the history of the universe clearly records:

“The Persian World lasted 530 million years…”

Eve was silent for a moment, picked up the fragment again, and used the power of the law again.

This time, He [retraced] the initial age of the material that composed it… that is, the age of the universe.

[Retracing] is not difficult.

Soon, Eve got a new number –

about 16.524 billion years…

Eve exhaled lightly and slowly closed her eyes.

In his long-standing memory, the scientists of Blue Star had already calculated the age of the Blue Star Universe…

At that time, it was 13.82 billion years.

In other words, if this is really the Blue Star Universe, then… now it is probably 2.7 billion years later in Eve’s memory…

At this moment, Eve’s heart has already set off a huge wave.

The divine power surged, and He slowly calmed the throbbing in his heart, and looked at the notebook lying quietly again.

After hesitating for a moment, Eve reached out and gently opened it…

Many parts of the record in the notebook were not clear enough, but some of the content could be vaguely recognized.

However, rather than a record, it was more like a researcher’s diary.

Eve picked it up and browsed through it silently in her mind:

“It’s really big… very big… We don’t know how it grows or what kind of power it possesses, but its discovery… is enough to subvert the entire human cognition!”

“April 6, 3021 AD… This is exactly the sixth month since we discovered it. Each of its leaves is unique. Inside some leaves, we have observed traces of wormholes…”

“The professor speculated that when it was alive, each leaf was probably connected to a space! Even a world!”

“Maybe… this is the Jianmu in Chinese mythology, or should we call it the world tree in Norse mythology?”

“I think… we may be able to revive it by analyzing its genetic material… or even create an alternative universe with it! Hahaha… are you kidding, how is this possible?”

“The starry sky is so vast and so mysterious, and we humans… are just dust and insects in it.”

“…”

“September 3, 3025 AD… This is the tenth year since I came to the ‘World Tree Research Center’. Haha, I never thought that the professor would officially name it the World Tree just because I mentioned it casually.”

“The genetic material was replicated very successfully. Through the latest cloning technology, we have successfully cultivated a seedling, but… the professor said that it might be difficult for it to survive because we don’t know what substance it relies on to survive.”

“The professor speculated that it probably grows by absorbing dark matter, but unfortunately, the environment here is not enough for us to build a dark matter collection device…”

“I suggested transferring it to Blue Star for further research. After all, there is the most advanced civilian dark matter decompressor near the solar system, but it was rejected…”

“I understand. In fact, the professor is right. Ultimate space species like this, which are 100% super-stellar when alive, must not be sent to the mother planet easily.”

“No, to be more precise, all space species cannot be brought back easily. It is mentioned in the elementary school textbooks that in the history of the pioneer civilization we studied, they sent a Thorin protozoan egg to the mother planet, which eventually led to the destruction of the entire civilization…”

“Hehe, actually think about it, even if the professor agrees, the Central Coalition Government will definitely reject such a bold idea.”

“Ever since we discovered traces of pioneer activities on Mars eight hundred years ago, absorbed their technology, mastered the curvature engine and officially set foot in the starry sky, we have understood that we must always be in awe of the unknown existence in space…”

“However, the professor said that its vitality is more tenacious than imagined. Perhaps we can use its mother body to let it take root and grow…”

“It may be impossible to grow up, but we can accelerate its development by injecting NF-3134 and give birth to a seed.”

“With the seed, we can preserve it. When we find a suitable black hole, we can find a way to plant it…”

“It’s really interesting. Ten years ago, I didn’t believe that life could survive in a black hole, but now I’ve encountered one! And it’s a space creature that can theoretically ‘swallow’ a black hole!” “

In the final analysis, it’s because of insufficient funds. If the military takes action and directly allocates us a black hole-making machine, we don’t have to worry about research here at all.”

“But it’s understandable. After all, the focus of the United Nations is now on the Thorin Zerg. It is said that traces of these terrifying bugs that destroyed the pioneer civilization were found in Cassiopeia A some time ago…”

“Fortunately, it is still 10,000 light years away from the Blue Star. Unless there is a jump engine, it should not be so easy for them to come here.”

“…”

“December 31, 3040 AD, this year’s New Year’s Day is a day worth celebrating, because the world tree we cultivated finally produced a seed! After fifteen years, our efforts have finally paid off!”

“According to the professor’s opinion, I led the project team to do some tests on the seeds of the world tree. What surprised us was that we were unable to observe its internal composition. It seemed that all detection methods were ineffective when facing it…”

“The professor said that this is because its internal structure has exceeded the range that our detection equipment can observe, and its interior seems to be composed of a more advanced dimensional world.”

“Unfortunately, we can’t do an autopsy and observation, because the cultivated world tree died after it produced seeds, and in the past fifteen years, we have never successfully cloned even a new world tree.”

“The professor speculated that this seems to be some unknown genetic mechanism of the world tree at work, and we can’t figure it out now…”

“However… we successfully extracted some very active energy from the mother body. After experiments, it seems to have great therapeutic effects, and it seems to respond to dark matter…”

“The professor asked me to give it a name, and I wrote ‘Life Force’ on the work report as a prank, but I didn’t expect it to be named that!”

“Outrageous… I really just wanted to make a joke…”

“However, this special energy does have many magical aspects. Perhaps, we can do some research at the level of genetic modification and apply it to developing human potential…”

“I have a hunch that perhaps this special energy will change the future.”

“…”

“September 3, 3065 AD. This is the fiftieth year since I came to the research center. Unknowingly, I, a newcomer who once knew nothing, have become the research director of the center.”

“According to the United Nations Labor Act, the professor officially retired yesterday. I was really reluctant to let him go. He has been teaching me since the first day I came to the institute… In my eyes, he is not only my teacher, but also my idol.”

“I vaguely remember that on the first day I met him, he called me by the wrong name. His Chinese didn’t seem to be very good, and he couldn’t tell the difference between ‘li’ and ‘ni’z. But I’ve gotten used to him calling me by that name for so many years. Whether it’s Leo or Neo, to be honest, they’re both pretty unpleasant. Haha…

” “But now that I think about it… I kind of miss him. Now… no one in the research center calls me Neo kindly anymore. Everyone only calls me Director Li respectfully. Although I still smile, I feel more and more distant from them…”

“But think about it, the professor is already 132 years old, and it’s time for me to take a vacation…”

“Now, it’s my turn to take over his responsibility.”

“…”

Leo? Neo?

King of the Gods Neo? !

After browsing to this point, Eve widened her eyes and showed a very wonderful expression for the first time.

He took a breath and continued to look down…

In the following days, the records were much more chaotic, and there were traces of erasure in many places. In addition, some places had been corroded and could not be seen clearly.

And when the handwriting gradually became clear, the recorded time had reached the 32nd century…

“September 3, 3100 AD. This is the eighty-fifth year since I came to the research center. Last month, the United Government passed a plan for the injection of ‘Water of Life No. 1’ for all the people. It can be foreseen that… human life expectancy will be extended again.”

“I wonder how many people will awaken their superpowers after being injected with the potion this time and become superhumans who can use dark matter and mental power, just like the previous experiments.”

“I hope there will be more superhumans. The Thorin swarm is growing too fast, and the border star region has completely fallen. If we can’t defeat these terrifying guys, we will sooner or later repeat the mistakes of the pioneer civilization…”

“It’s amazing when you think about it… In the past, people dreamed of all kinds of magical superpowers, but they never thought that we just lacked a key to open the door to the supernatural from the beginning…”

“It turns out… it has always been with us, but we have never discovered it.”

“Thanks to the World Tree, by analyzing the genetic fluid obtained from its special energy, we will completely change the human species! Change the future of the universe!”

“Natural evolution has always been described with one simple and crude word: failure. Now, we will define success ourselves!”

“The only drawback is that as life spans increase, I’m afraid retirement time will also be extended…”

“…”

On March 12, 3107 AD, seven years have passed. 99% of the entire United Nations population has been injected with the ‘Water of Life No. 1’, the average human life expectancy has been further enhanced, and the proportion of extraordinary awakening has reached an astonishing 3%! “

“But unfortunately… there are still 1% of humans who cannot withstand the power of the potion and can only be put on hold for the time being.”

“Alas, our human foundation is too poor. Although the extraordinary has awakened, only a very small number of people can reach the level that can rival the Thorin protozoa…”

“Our technology is still too backward… Now, we can only pin all our hopes on the development of extraordinary powers.” “

It is said that the United Government has passed official documents, intending to inject the water of life into other creatures to create a legion of extraordinary creatures that can fight against the Thorin swarm…”

“Maybe, those creatures that only exist in myths and legends will soon become a reality.”

“…”

“On September 3, 3115 AD, I have been at the Eighth Star Research Institute for exactly one hundred years. Thanks to the Water of Life, I will have to work here for at least another two hundred years…”

“However, this is not bad news for me. I have always believed that the future of mankind and the future of the universe lies here.” “

Recently, my extraordinary power seems to have increased again. Perhaps it is because I am the first human to be injected with the gene fluid. The speed of the expansion of my power even scares me…”

“Not only that, I seem to have hallucinations these days, as if I can see things that others cannot see…”

“When I tear these things apart, their corresponding existences in reality will also collapse, and when I change them, the corresponding objects in reality will also change…”

“I think I… may have seen the ‘laws’ of the universe.”
