After he said this, almost everyone's eyes turned to Dai Bingcheng and the imperial prime minister rather than Li Zhen himself.

Because the agreement itself was spearheaded by the imperial government. And for now, at least, the only superpower in this world is this behemoth on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean.

Dai Bingcheng looked at the prime minister again - the latter was indifferent. So he raised his head and said to the one in front of him, "What conditions do you have?" ”

People were a little surprised by his straightforwardness, but they also felt that it was reasonable. Because it's not a press conference, and it's not a debate in parliament. Everyone here is well aware of the virtues of the other "peers", as for the agreement that once been......

Isn't it made by these people themselves?

Li Zhen nodded and said, "Very good, you have reached an agreement." So before I say my terms, we'll have to move on to the same topic – because the two are connected. ”

"I'll start by giving you a detailed explanation of the history of that thing, and the amount of power it possesses. It's going to be a long story, and it's going to involve some of the most cutting-edge scientific theories of the moment. You are welcome to ask questions during my narrative, but I am also a layman on some specific details, and you can consult your technical advisor after you leave this room. ”

"The 'story' I'm going to tell began about 13.8 billion years ago."

"That's right, this 13.8 billion is the history of the universe that mankind has speculated, and we think it's correct. Before the war, Dr. Shen Mu had put forward a set of theories. He believes that the universe in which we live is only a relative microcosm. It is to the larger macrocosm what an electron is to our universe. This theory used to seem like a fantasy, but now it probably won't be ridiculed anymore because a series of applied techniques derived from it have matured, such as the 'door' you use to pass through the Isolation Zone. ”

At the same time, Dr. Shen also raised the possibility that our universe may collide with other possible microcosms. I had the privilege of reading Dr. Shen's theoretical manuscripts, but unfortunately despite his explanations, I still couldn't figure out what was going on - I guess that's the difference between a genius and an ordinary person. You probably won't be able to figure out that theory, but it doesn't matter, all we want is the results. ”

"As a result, our world is in its current state, the Barrier of Separation. Earlier. Electricity has also failed. Earlier than that. More than 200 years ago, the Ables appeared. I would like to remind you that this change is not just happening on Earth, but on the entire cosmic scale. This means: In this universe we live in, the laws that we once knew have changed—as your technical advisors should have confirmed. And it all stems from the 'collision' of the two universes. This also means: The universe that intersects with our worldly realm at this moment. The physical laws within it are completely different from those of our worldly realm. As a joke, in that world, if there were any civilizations similar to human beings, they might all be magicians, or immortal Taoists. Our technology may be just as incredible to them. ”

Li Zhen paused. Look at people's expressions, then press your hand down slightly: "Yes." As you think, whether it is the power, the species, or even the 'god' I am going to talk about now, are all the products of this foreign law. ”

At this point, one of the forty-seven green lights on the podium in front of him turned red. So he bowed his head and said, "Please ask questions." ”

The questioner said, "So this collision won't last forever, will it?" ”

Li Zhen said: "Yes. From the point of view of our universe. The collision could end now, or it could last millions of years—and that would be just a moment for the Cosmos. ”

The questioner added, "I've heard a saying before—under the premise you just said, if a super-observer perceives such a collision, then this random state becomes a kind of certainty, which means that the collision will not end, but will continue until the two worlds merge into one. So does that mean that Dr. Wang Yuanwei, who is in Luzon at the moment—"

A hint of gloom flashed in Li Zhen's eyes. But he quickly raised his hand to interrupt the questioner: "I know what you have to say. But I'll explain that later. ”

The questioner shrugged his shoulders and said, "One more question. If one day this collision ends, does it mean that the laws that come from outside the realm of another world will also be invalid? Does it mean that there will be no new capable people in our worldly realm? ”

Li Zhen nodded: "Yes." Those superpowers that are beyond our knowledge are based on external 'laws of physics'. Once those patterns disappear, humanity will no longer be affected by them. But on the other hand, individuals who have already been affected will still exhibit specificity. I don't know the details of the technique, but the most obvious example is the species, and the god I am talking about. They live a long life and are difficult to eradicate. Although our worldly realms have been completely unaffected by the other worlds for millions of years before, they still possess terrifying power. ”

A lot of people began to have thoughtful expressions on their faces. And Li Zhen gave them a few seconds to think and said: "Then everyone should know another fact by now - this collision we are experiencing now is not the first time. ”

"Now that we've talked about the cosmic background, let's talk about the Earth we're on. The history of the earth is 4.6 billion years. As far as I can see, in the past 4.6 billion years, our world has experienced at least three collisions. ”

"The first collision occurred roughly 4.3 billion years ago."

Li Zhen paused again. So, as he expected, six lamps turned red. But this time he didn't allow the question, and continued: "You want to ask me how I know this data – it told me. ”

He pointed to the south: "It was at that time that it appeared. ”

His keen hearing was aware of the sound of inhalation, and he heard someone muttering—"sensational."

So he smiled and said, "It's sensational. So I don't expect to convince you to take my word for it at the outset. As I said, you can listen to what I'm saying as a story until then. ”

"Modern science believes that the origin of life is roughly 3.5 billion to 4 billion years ago, when primitive single-celled organisms appeared. This theory is true in some respects. Because primitive single-celled organisms, the kind of single-celled organisms we know as them, did emerge at that time. Before that, however, the old god I spoke of had existed alone for 300 million years. ”

"You want to ask how such a huge life form was born on an earth surrounded by inorganic matter—I also want to know the way. But as I said before, here we don't dwell on the details of the technique, we just look at the results. As a result, it was born, and 300 million years later, it suffered its second collision after the birth of the Earth. ”

"This collision brought about a certain kind of drastic change, and it was also during this period of time that the Old Gods were extremely badly injured. In modern scientific theory, there was a gap between 4.6 billion and 3.7 billion years in the history of the earth, during which geological data was completely missing, and this is the result of that collision. ”

"From a human perspective, some 'flesh' fell from the bodies of the old gods, and so the primitive single-celled organisms as we know them appeared."

"Just as we don't care about the microbes in the dirt, the Old Gods don't care about what will happen to the primitive single-celled creatures. If we insist on understanding it from the perspective of human emotions, we can think of the old gods as an extremely lonely and withdrawn being. Most of the time it sleeps, it doesn't think about the meaning of life like human beings, and it doesn't try to do anything to prove its worth—and in that sense it's the sorrow and glory of humanity. Because our lives are too short and fragile, and precisely because our lives are too short and fragile, we always want to do something and leave some traces in this world. ”

Thus life as we know it began a long evolutionary process—under the laws of our universe. Then, a gigantic species appeared—"

"Species." Someone whispered.

"It's a dinosaur." Li Zhen smiled, "It's a dinosaur." But if you want to talk about species, all right...... In fact, there was one more thing before that - the Cambrian explosion of life. This is also an 'unsolvable mystery' in the history of human science - about 530 million years ago, in just 20 million years, countless new species suddenly appeared on the surface of the earth. We don't know exactly what this is for, but I have an explanation here. ”

"Because before that, the old gods had done one thing. He created creatures—just as God created man or Nuwa created man. He used his own ...... By human standards, things like dander or nails and hair create creatures. Now we call them species. ”

"And fortunately or unfortunately, the Old Gods have given those creatures their own abilities—abilities from another world. As a result, this group without natural enemies grew and multiplied rapidly in this world, and eventually formed a powerful civilization. ”

"Immediately, for some reason, the civilization of the species went to war with the ancient gods. The ultimate goal of this war is to completely eliminate one of the parties. We can't imagine what a glorious war it was, but the scars left on the land by that war can still be seen today. ”

“…… See? What is it? Someone couldn't help but ask. He didn't even press the button to ask to speak.

Li Zhen clicked on the holographic projection in his hand, and the entire African continent was revealed. He leaned over slightly, gestured diagonally with his right hand in the middle of the continent, and said—

"The Great Rift Valley."

The room was quiet again. (To be continued......)
