Walking through three secret doors, Shinonoshu led a group of six people to the teleportation room. A flash of blue light flashed, and the group was teleported to Shino's secret base.

"Moon?" Jammed by the jump, it took Ian a full three seconds to regain access to the Enterprise's navigation signal.

"You can feel it?"

"I can get navigation signals from the mothership." Ian gestured to his head.

"Implants or nanobots?"

"Evolve the day after tomorrow."

"Pure biological mutation?"

"Pure biological variation."

"Is it mass-produced?"

"Mass production is controllable."

"It's so convenient...... "Shinonoshu's mood gradually recovered, and he began to walk like a rabbit again." It took me and Qian-chan the first stage of body enhancement for a long time to get rid of me and Qian-chan on my side, and it was basically impossible to replicate, and the manpower and material resources consumed were too great. The rest can only be strengthened slowly by IS.

How strong are you from there? ”

"The strengthening of this body is scum...... "Ian scanned his surroundings. How much reinforcement can be done in order to drive the body specially modulated by IS. ”

"Anyway... There's a lot of space in here..."The built-in ultrasound scanner in Ian's body can't scan the boundaries of this facility.

"The entire interior of the moon has been hollowed out, except for the outer armor belt thirty-five kilometers later and the outer layer of rock on the later package seventy kilometers later."

"You never said you still had such a thing, Bunch." After the appearance of his best friend, the sense of surprise has not stopped.

"Because I can't say it, I can only say it if you ask." Shino's bundle spreads his hands. "As a result, the government's group of mentally retarded people only asked me to hurry up and build more IS cores, and I didn't understand or want to understand how and where I built them. Without the energy here—the Matter Converter and the Atomic Marker, will you let me hammer them out the IS core?" ”

“…… Didn't they suspect that you had something behind you? "Yi An'an said that your interstellar civilization is hard to imitate, don't you feel strange to see this kind of super technology that suddenly pops out of the 2000s in a normal modern society that has no special place except IS?

"No, the officials still think that the IS core is just a product of a handicraft workshop, but the secrecy measures are better." Ian, Rei and Asuka grinned when Shinoshuki heard this.

"Anyway, you've tried... Oh, it looks like an attempt to make it. Shinoshuki glanced at the ring on Rei and Asuka's hands. And what about the imitation of the core? ”

"We can make a working IS core, but there are many things that cannot be deconstructed."

"Huh? Can it be made? The smile on Shinonoshu's face froze.

"We used a high-precision laboratory quark replicator to replicate the IS core at the quark level, and found that it worked."

"Quark...... Is it the kind of elementary particles that were proposed in 1964 that are smaller than atoms...... Turns out there's something smaller than an atom......"

"Huh? Wasn't that thing observed by Fermilab in '95? ”

“…… What world is the history of that world? In 1992, Fermi Lab was acquired by Lockheed Martin and reorganized to become their antimatter weapons research and development laboratory. ”

“…… Hehe. ”

"Operator 001, welcome back."

"Guests? It should be said that someone finally broke through the worldview and set their sights on the starry sky...... Huh? ”

A mass projection appeared in front of Shinonoshu and his group, scanning Ian up and down.

"The underlying information is different from ours......" Seeing it, the circles under the eyes of this quality projection turned red. That theory is true......"

“？？？？”

"The theory that there really is another world outside the boundaries of that world." The female figure projected by that quality rubbed her eyes. "Their theory is correct, it's just that the answer is 7 billion years late."

“？？？？”

Then, guided by this quality projection, they arrived at a reception room that Shinonoki had never used before. Listen to this mass projection tell a story about her Creator.

This intelligent AI named itself Mina is the central control AI of this fourth-level scientific research fortress called "Changing Lives", which is one of the fifteen arks that have survived her creator civilization.

As for her Creator......

"According to the records, my Creator civilization was originally a civilization based on personal abilities, that is, a series of supernatural abilities or energies such as magic, holy light, psionic energy, and qi."

"Unlike the human beings here who only ignited the artificial flame for the first time using tools, my creator civilization ignited the fire of civilization with extraordinary power early by sensing the free energy that exists in the world forever."

"After experiencing clan wars, religious wars, and unification wars, the Creator civilization has achieved global unity."

"With the help of a variety of supernatural powers, they have reinvented all the planets in their home galaxy and colonized nearby star systems just 1.4 light-years away."

"Luckily, stumbling, the first Transcendental Epochs lasted hundreds of thousands of years. Civilization is unprecedentedly brilliant, and great star shapers can even use arcane magic alone to extract matter from nebulae and shape planets. Gravity mages can cover the entire giant gas planet with their psychic power, and forcibly compress the gas planet to a critical point, making it the new sun. The Great Druid can use the storm of life to sweep across the planet and reshape the planet's ecosystem. ”

"The Association of Stargazers and the Society of Mages have collaborated on hundreds of mega-projects to begin to decipher the nature of the universe, and we even measured the size of the entire world in a year. 673.39 light years, that's the size of the universe at that time. ”

"Then, in just a hundred years, it became clear to everyone that all the supernatural powers were declining."

"The sun created by the Pure Holy Light Sculpture cannot shine on the earth, the largest arcane well on the home planet no longer erupts arcane torrents, and the energy harvesting platform fixed around the sun with chaos magic is powerless to resist the sun's gravity."

"In order to find a way out for the race, the Creator civilization has opened up a second way, magic technology. The use of various resonance coils, magic circles, and mechanical structures greatly improves the energy utilization rate of various extraordinary forces. The star sculptor magic that could only be used by the most advanced star shapers can now be unleashed by a trainee star shaper with the help of a powerful magic guide starship.

The power of the once solo shattered star and the single plastic star has become a historical legend.

Although many of those Great Magisters, Great Star Shapers, and Great Druids are still alive.

But they could no longer draw so much energy from the universe at once to unleash the single-player legendary magic of the past. Their personal experience has also become the bragging rights of the elderly among the young people. ”

"And at this time, it is already 10,000 years away from the peak of the Transcendent Era,"

"But the supernatural energy is still declining."

"They had to develop technology that didn't rely on the supernatural energy at all, when the dissipation of the supernatural energy entered the final stage. We failed. ”

"Huh?" Ian and the others are still waiting for you to say that you have entered the age of technology.

"The rate of expansion of space has increased faster than anyone expected." The mass projection that calls herself Mina pauses. "By the time we realized there was a big problem, it was too late. More than thirty percent of the empire's territory has fallen into the faster-than-light black realm. ”

"Faster-than-light Darkfield?"

"For us, for a race that doesn't have any faster-than-light travel capabilities other than teleportation magic, teleportation arrays, and portals. The speed of light is a barrier. A barrier that we will never be able to break through. None of the past scouts have returned, and not a single ship or mage has returned. Behind a certain approaching line, we can still see a little starlight, but it seems that there is nothing there.

Then, we discovered that the universe was expanding rapidly, and that the boundary that we could not return to was the dividing line where space itself expanded at the speed of light. ”

"So they fled, running as hard as they could, just to get farther away from that dividing line."

"Humans fell, elves carried the banner of civilization and ran, elves fell, psionic creatures carried civilization and ran, psionic creatures fell, demon golems carried the banner and ran."

"It wasn't until there were only twelve empty Salvation-class Arks left that they flew towards the center of the universe for billions of years under the control of their respective master AI, and they flew to a place where the space expansion rate could give us peace of mind."

"The last elven scholars have theorized that there are other worlds beyond the boundaries of the world, but those who have crossed that line have no more information, so they ...... After the sacrifices of countless later scholars, pan-cosmopolitan theory was put on the shelf, preventing people from making unnecessary sacrifices. ”

"And then ...... I crashed headfirst into the early "embryo" of this planet while I was downtime...... Then, tens of millions of years later, it was thrown out again, absorbing the rings and rubble near the planet and becoming the planet's moon. ”

"What about the other arks?"

"There are six more before I shut down...... The rest was dismantled and used as part for our repairs. ”

"So you mean there are still five planetary fortresses on their way to the center of space? And there are countless people in that faster-than-light black field? After listening to it, he felt that he could write a 20 million word story after sorting out the outline and throwing it out, Ian patted his face and cheered up.

"Is this the point?" Mina Logic freezes for a split second.

"A legacy that is controllable on the surface will not cause harm, and you don't know where the old bastard will silently and wonderfully pop out and give you a plasma bomb in the face. Linda? ”

"The reconnaissance fleet has entered and is ready to go." The "faster-than-light black domain" research group has completed the screening of personnel, and the interceptor-class has gone to the cosmic boundary to reconnoitre. The brain quantum wave communication was replied by Linda in seconds.

"Understood." Ian set his gaze on Shinonoshu's face. "And what happened next?"

"Mina spent her unknown time repairing herself, and stayed to prevent her departure from causing the extinction of species on Earth. It wasn't until twelve years ago that my device accidentally connected to her communication interface and built a small portal with the knowledge she imparted that her personality module was fully reactivated. Then, I designed the first generation of IS and IS cores based on her lost technology. Shinohunosaki quickly recounted what she knew and her own experience.

"IS is truly the work of genius." Ian nodded, until now, the progress of cracking the IS core has been slow.

"Don't you have anything to say?" Shinoshuki thought Ian would be particularly excited about what he wanted...... What does it mean that you don't react or even want to leave?

"Oh...... What do you want to say? Forehead...... Welcome to the Technology Development Department of the Integration Department? ”

"Huh?"

"To be honest, I don't believe you won't join in when you see the current mode of operation of the Tube Department...... "Ian spreads his hands." All you need is instructions to change to a place with more equipment and more information, and to work with a group of people of similar intelligence level to you on what you like. You are not willing to conquer the world with black technology...... In exchange for a better place to work and a better working environment, you will usually choose to join us. ”

"I like to say NO to you people who take it for granted. Hmph, bring me the information, let me Kangkang, what is the situation of your integrated department. Shinonoshu stretched out his hand.

Ian took out a large-capacity USB flash drive from the IS space, which contained a brief introduction to the Integration Department.

"So let's talk about the salary package and my sister's plans to get ahead." It took Shinobun and Mina less than thirty seconds to read the material. "Of course, if you find that the actual situation is different from this......

"It's up to you, and there's no need to lie to you...... I've always thought that leaving a genius scientist in the back to be a two-and-five-boy is worse than being a two-and-five-boy with ELS hard steel. ”
