Chapter 18: The Age of Annihilation (Ask for Recommendations)

Many power mechas, mechas, etc., which enhance combat effectiveness, will cause radiation to the wearer in the early version, and it will even be fatal after a long time. There is no way to circumvent it completely.

Even in the later stage, there are still many high-intensity models that cannot solve the radiation problem. The driver is driving with his life.

For example, in the era of annihilation of the old cosmic civilization, a devastating mecha that could destroy the stars of a single mech, would cause the pilot to be severely exposed.

Therefore, there is a rule that each drive can only last for a certain period of time, after which it is not allowed to fly this mecha again. In this way, there is a high probability that the driver can survive under the torture of a large number of sequelae.

However, because of the urgency of the war at that time, the legions of the outer gods overwhelmed the ancient civilization, so almost all the pilots who piloted this mecha fought until they died of radiation sickness with a mortal mentality.

However, at that time, the technology of lossless consciousness was not yet completed, so it was just a backup of the driver's personality data. The main body is still dead.

Sadly, his consciousness was gone, leaving behind an identical replica.

But maybe it doesn't matter. After all, in the end, the universe was annihilated.

Everything will disappear, including the original god of machines.

In the end, the ancient mechanical civilization failed to develop the technology that could protect the entire race from annihilation.

This technology exists, as evidenced by the fact that the Throne of the Mechanics still exists. They just didn't have time to do it all.

Luo Zixuan understood that the current universe would eventually be destroyed, and he didn't know exactly when the Annihilation Era began.

There are too many precursors to destruction.

For example, at that time, the three major technology trees, coupled with the technological civilization that had not yet completed the mechanical ascension, had fallen into extreme madness in their struggles.

There was too little information left, and Luo Zixuan couldn't know too much about the details at that time.

He only knew that at that time, because the technological civilization did not have its own ascension route and did not have the protection of the god of machinery, although it was not defeated and retreated, but after the last great expedition of the fleet was thwarted by the genetic civilization and the magic civilization, it never left the galaxy they guarded.

Of course, despite the lack of divine protection, the three major tech trees still can't easily eradicate the heresy of technological civilization.

Therefore, they began an endless struggle, giving a period of scientific and technological civilization development.

The destruction of civilizations throughout history has been due to war.

Perhaps the Outer Gods were drawn to the endless cosmic wars.

After the three ascension routes, plus the new mechanical routes, the civilizations of the four major technology trees almost ceased war and fought against the outer gods together.

But there was still no advantage, and almost all battles ended in defeat.

The legions of the outer gods, even the technological level is higher than the technological civilization of the old universe in most fields.

Luo Zixuan believes that perhaps the expanded war eventually led to the arrival of annihilation.

Although Luo Zixuan could not logically support this view because there was no direct connection between war and annihilation in fact, he could not easily withdraw his emphasis on this line.

When he sat on the mechanical throne, he had a lot of time to calculate and think.

He was thinking about what his war with the Most High God meant and what it might bring.

And what was the result he was expecting.

There is still only one conclusion he has come to after repeated calculations.

That is, once the technological civilization begins to gain an advantage, then it is necessary to try to replace the status of the magical civilization.

After that, I began to think about what kind of attitude I should have towards the magical civilization for the sake of the long-term thinking of this universe.

Luo Zixuan is always paying attention to whether there is a trend of opening the gene technology tree and the psionic technology tree.

His latest thought suggests that perhaps the war between different tech trees is a catalyst.

It could speed everything up and even lead to reactions that wouldn't otherwise be possible.

For example, perhaps this universe originally did not have a single technology tree, but the magical civilization opened the magic ascension route, and then took measures to start ruling all planes of the entire universe and prevent the birth of other technology trees.

The supreme god is in ensuring the superiority and uniqueness of himself and the status of the magical technology tree.

Perhaps, this also carries the meaning of preventing this universe from setting off a cosmic war.

Luo Zixuan's calculations concluded that the true purpose of the Supreme God may be as follows.

1: There are no other tech trees, and there is no cosmic war between different systems and civilizations.

2: Limited struggle, effective destruction, effective energy release effect, will not attract the invasion of external gods who detect this energy.

3: If the outer gods do not invade, the Age of Annihilation will not begin.

4: To sum up, in order to protect the new universe from repeating the mistakes of the past and annihilating again, it is necessary to lock all the tech trees of the new universe except magic.

Through the results of this calculation, Luo Zixuan believed that if his conclusion was assumed to be correct, then the Supreme God must be the survivor of the magical civilization of the old universe.

According to the records of the Throne of the Mechanics, at the beginning of the Annihilation Era, that is, before the Mechanical Technology Tree was born, all magical civilizations were destroyed under the blows of dimensional reduction.

Since then, no reactions have been detected regarding the magical civilizations and gods of this universe.

But even so, there is a real possibility that the magic gods will slip through the net.

Since the dimensionality reduction strike, all major civilizations have begun to study ways to prevent dimensionality reduction strikes.

Simply, the second round of dimensionality reduction strikes has been being prepared by the Outer God Legion, so the mechanical civilization of carbon-based creatures exploded in science and technology at the time of the survival of civilization, and preemptively created dimensional protection devices, which were shared with the gene technology tree and the psionic technology tree.

Later, they each made improvements to their tech trees.

During this time, psionic civilizations have mentioned that there is a murmur of unknown origin in their psionic signals. But soon it went dormant.

At that time, everyone thought that it was a ghost made by the psionic infiltrators of the outer gods, but judging from Luo Zixuan's current analysis results, this was not the case.

Step by step, he began to craft a bold hypothesis.

The psionic civilization may not have been destroyed, after all, it was just lost.

Today's Supreme God, who may not have been so powerful at the beginning, has developed both magic and psionic technology trees.

He may have escaped destruction and annihilation by escaping into psionic signals.

This also means that the Spirit Race should have survived the era of annihilation and not destroyed with the technological civilization.

If this is the case, the problem arises.

Where has the psionic civilization of this universe gone?

Has the long-dormant Supreme God been extinct?

Luo Zixuan fell into a long contemplation.
