The 40K year of the galactic calendar marks the 40th millennium of interstellar humanity.

"Humanity is finished. ”

In the dim light, a man raised the flask in his hand, drank bitterly, and finally threw the flask out heavily, and then said.

In the flickering faint light, tiny dust floated in the air, and the man gasped, leaning weakly on the box, holding his head in his hands, and the air of despair permeated his whole body. The lights are on from time to time, making his figure disappear from time to time.

Not far from him, however, his companion was silent, lying on the ground, adjusting the ancient machine from time to time, through which various voices rang out.

"We were born, grew up, and died in ...... We are not Americans, nor Europeans, nor inhabitants of the Middle East, nor Africans, nor East Asians, nor any region of the earth. We are the children of Mars, and we live on this planet that is not oppressed, united and forging ahead...... We were born on this united planet, we love each other, and people treat other people's children as their own children and other people's parents as their own parents...... The torn earth is not our home, but a prison where human beings oppress and humiliate each other......"

An ebullient magnetic voice spoke, and every time the voice spoke, it provoked a multitude of cheers.

Through the background, you can vaguely hear that it is a large public speech, and many voices are clustered around the magnetic voice. The shouts, the loud clappings, the screams, the salutes, the many cacophony voices all celebrated their joy in their own way.

The companion listened silently, and he listened very carefully, attentively, but there was no change in his face. It's just that after listening, I silently adjusted it again, and then a passionate girl's voice sounded again.

"We are human beings, self-proclaimed noble and rational human beings, how can our proud wisdom be born for the forging of swords? In this world, a great nation will be born, whether it is earthlings, Martians, moonmen, asteroid people, and even all human beings in the vast void, they will embrace each other and cheer for us to lay down our swords and no longer fight each other. Let us celebrate, celebrate for the first time in eternity......"

It was a voice that was unique in this era, a confident voice.

In that female voice, the companion did not hear frustration and despair, nor was it muddy, only self-confidence. Bright as gold, as bright as a star.

Although I can't see each other, in the eyes of my companions, it must be an extremely beautiful and dazzling girl, and standing next to her, I may be burned by that confidence. Her body and mind are full of yearning and hope for the future, not like the present......

The companion was silent for a moment.

"They must be living in a good time......

On the side, the man was just drinking the wine in the jug by himself.

In this abandoned experimental base, although there is no one, there is no shortage of materials at all, in the unknown years of the past, a large number of materials have been prepared here, enough for the two of them to use until they die of old age.

But, really?

"Hiccup~"

The man hiccuped, then glanced at the ancient machine in his companion's hand and sneered.

"It's just the delusion of the ancients, eternal peace? Hahahaha, laugh at me, how can there be peace? What the hell is peace in this world......!

In the end, the man angrily threw the wine bottle out of his hand again, and the porcelain wine bottle was slammed into the ground and smashed into pieces.

The companion listened to the man's words, did not answer, but continued to tune the machine in solitude, listening to the voices from a bygone era.

......

Humanity is finished.

In the distant past, human beings began to fight against the four evil gods, which were unimaginable four cosmic evil gods, powerful and weird.

Some say that they originally originated from the resentment of the dead in a major event, in which it is said that countless people died, and those who died in despair, the resentment eventually turned into four evil gods.

It is also said that the four evil gods are self-contained, they have existed in the ancient past, but they are sleeping in the subspace, and then they wake up.

There are many theories about the four evil gods, and they often contradict each other. But there is only one fact, and that is that the evil gods have indeed driven humanity to a desperate situation and once collapsed the human world.

Then the God Emperor appeared, he turned the tide, integrated the human forces step by step, recovered a large number of human planets, and restored nearly two-thirds of the galaxy at its peak, once giving the human race hope of victory.

People praised him, chased him, worshipped him as a god.

However, the God-Emperor was not a god after all, and he eventually died.

Although the God-Emperor is dead, his physical body remains immortal, and his physical body has become a beacon in the subspace, guiding the way for the entire galaxy. Even now, the infinite brilliance emanating from the Divine Emperor's body can still be seen in the subspace.

In the days after the loss of the God Emperor, the human world was no longer able to regain its former territory, and a long tug-of-war began. With a large amount of technology lost, warlords on various planets, and the corruption of the evil gods of the universe at any time, the human world is like a dying giant, and can only watch itself lose blood and fall into a coma and die.

In desperation, human beings have tried everything they can, such as field lifeforms composed of magnetic fields and force fields, AI that completely loosens the limits of intelligence, and Zerg born from human genes...... Humans have created many, many creations, but most of them have not helped them, and many have even led to more serious rebellions.

Humans even travel to the past through time machines.

In that past time and space, future humans meet past emperors.

Under the pleading of the people, in the past time and space, the emperor who was as powerful as the god emperor thought twice, and still chose to accept refugees from the future time and space, but he looked at those happy people, but said meaningfully:

"Even if you flee to me, one day, you will have to face the fate of the battle...... Because the serpent will wake up eventually. ”

At that time, people did not understand, but in the end they realized that even if they fled to the past, they could not stop their destined fate.

Human beings have exhausted all their talents, and they can even go against the flow of time and space, but they still can't escape the invisible fate, and the world will always irretrievably collapse, which has also led to a shortage of manpower in the future time and space.

As a result, in this galaxy full of bugs, monsters, monsters, and runaway AI, humanity weakened step by step, collapsed, and finally ......

There are only a few settlements left of humanity.

When the man was born, he listened to his father's story, fantasized about the glory of mankind, and once vowed to revitalize the fate of mankind, but in front of him was only the status quo of embarrassment and imminent destruction.

There are less than 100 human beings in the settlement, and most of them are old, although there are still a few newborns, but they can only become more and more desolate.

Even so, human beings have to be on guard against all kinds of threats from space, and death can come at any time.

Every time you get a year older, you inevitably lose a few faces around you, and when the man is completely grown, there are only two people left in the entire settlement......

Perhaps the last two humans in the entire universe.

......

"Among the stars, there is a race that gathers here to cheer for a long project. Universe, what a big word. We are so small compared to this ancient universe, compared to its range of 93.4 billion light-years, and compared to its 13.7 billion years of history. We are trying our best to carve out among the stars, but compared to the vastness of the universe, we are still a small species that has not even come out of this galaxy cluster. ”

"Yes, we are small, and even at this moment in time, we still have to uphold this awe. ”

When a voice was brushed, the companion stopped, because the voice was not enthusiastic, not confident, but overflowing with pride and pride.

This must be the voice of the peak era.

Whenever he heard those voices from the past, he couldn't help but imagine what that era would be like.

"In this universe, we are so small that everything we have is as small as a child's toy compared to the universe. Everything we have has benefited from the omission between the fingers of the universe, and everything we have created is a poor imitation of everything in the universe. ”

"See, the stars have been shining for billions of years, long before the birth of mankind, and they will continue to shine after the end of humanity. Human life is not even a moment of star, which is something that human beings have understood since ancient times. ”

"However, it is man, not the star, who recognizes the eternity of the stars and the moments of the human world......"

Listen silently.

Although the voice spoke of the insignificance of human beings, in that voice, the companion clearly heard a kind of pride, a kind of pride that did not show weakness in the face of the vast universe.

Not far away, the man who was drinking also stopped.

He held the bottle in his hand and did not speak, but his ears twitched slightly, indicating that he was also listening silently.

"They used to look up at the stars, and now we have cast them. ”

The voice of the past could not have realized that the two were listening, he was just proudly proclaiming, proclaiming to this magnificent universe, declaring the pride of a small species.

Yes, we are small, but we are also proud.

Even in front of us is the vast and infinite universe, we can still proudly claim our great deeds.

"The universe has carved these many stars for billions of years, but the grand world, which was not created even with the vastness of the universe and the antiquity of the universe, was born at the hands of perishable species such as us. ”

"O small human, perishable human, be proud of it. ”

"Universe, have you ever seen that among these stars there is a tiny species that has created miracles that you have not been able to create? At this moment, we have transcended the mortal seed and glimpsed the realm that belongs to the Creator......"

The two listened silently.

They didn't know what the reason for the pride of the voice was, but they knew it must be something very remarkable.

Before they knew it, there was no longer a sound in the ancient machine, but the two of them remained silent.

"Why ......"

The companion couldn't help but mutter, a deep dazed voice in his hoarse voice.

"What did we do wrong, you say?"

"Why did such a proud and great era perish, and why did we end up like this?"
