Chapter 114: Playing in the Dark

"It's just drinking to quench your thirst." The gravitational fluctuations emitted by the Origin Nucleus are translated into the language of the earth: "In fact, it is no longer dusk, but the night before, the contraction rate of the cosmic membrane is already very large, maybe you can't feel it, but the flow of time has begun to slow down, this change is very small, with your level of technology, I am afraid that it will not be discovered in a few hundred years...... As the shrinkage rate gradually increases, our resistance will become more and more weak, and we will suppress the shrinking cosmic membrane by bombing...... Once it retracts again, it will rebound violently, and one day, we will no longer be able to hold that front line, and at that time, it will be the midnight of the universe. ”

"Everything is plunged into darkness, matter is shrinking rapidly, the core laws of the universe change from increasing entropy to decreasing entropy, the cosmic membrane no longer expands, time does not flow, and there is no living creature in the universe that can survive in this state, and there is no way to even think...... We think through the flow of photons, essentially the same as your nervous system, and if time doesn't flow, it will all be forbidden or even reversed, and no one knows what will happen next...... But the final result is certain, the moment of contraction to the end, everything returns to the beginning, and the universe recompresses back to the original point, as if time has gone back more than 20 billion years and returned to the beginning. ”

"For you human beings, this period is very long, and you can spend your life in peace for dozens of generations, don't pay attention to anything, and leave it all to future generations to solve, in case science and technology progress in the future, or maybe the problem will be solved by itself, but for us, this period is very short, as if it is just every day, and even before it is the turn of the next generation, we ourselves will have to face it."

"Is there no way to stop it?" Mark had already guessed half a point in his heart, but when the truth was revealed in front of him, he still couldn't help but feel shocked, and like Sun Tan, he had mixed feelings in his heart, and he was still looking for a way out of the dusk.

"Yes, there is only one ......"

"Transcendent Ascension~" When the first core said this, its voice dragged on for a long time, as if it was chanting a mysterious and ancient tune, and Mark's ears resounded with a buzzing echo and a chorus, which was the resonance of the gravitational body creature behind him.

"Escape to higher latitudes?"

"Yes, that's the only way we can think of it, the Ascend is the highest civilization we've ever seen, and we've been following their path for so many years, our technology...... Our Thoughts...... We don't think of any other way to make our society from them. Another message came out of the mouth of the Primordial Core, that is, the original Ascension was not an independent civilization, but a combination of countless civilizations.

Is peace the main theme of the universe? How can Mark not believe this, competition and deterrence are, it's just that these civilizations within the alliance are all intimidated by the same threat, they must form a united front to confront it, once the threat of dusk is lifted, I am afraid that the first war will break out within the alliance.

"Alright, now it's time for us to talk about the real thing, we can hand over the eggs inside the earth." Mark made a difficult decision, in addition to the deterrence of the lighthouse, it would take some tempting benefits to get the other side to compromise.

"We have had some conflicts before, you only sent a collector, and the shielding signal can not communicate, we have a big misunderstanding of each other, and now we are facing the same difficult situation, at this time more contradictions and conflicts will only slow down our pace, only cooperation and coexistence is the real way out." Mark said his thoughts, his legs were trembling slightly, but his voice was firm and powerful, he only had this one chance, and the fate of mankind was pinned on him in a few words, he had to convince the other party: "There is also a carbon-based civilization in the alliance, I think we can't coexist peacefully, the people of the earth have already suffered, and returning the earth back the same way will definitely cause secondary casualties, since we have stepped out, there is no point in returning to the solar system, we have decided to stay in the constellation Aquila after deliberation." ”

"Are you planning to join the Alliance? You must know that although we have carbon-based creatures, they all broke the speed of light limit by their own strength to qualify for joining the Alliance, each civilization has its own strengths, and in the Alliance can make its own contribution to the defense of Twilight, and what can you do? Before he could speak, a Flop archon behind him spoke.

"We can't do much now, so we still need your assistance and guidance in the early stages of joining the Alliance, human civilization is a resilient civilization with potential, as long as we get some help, we can show our strength, I believe this series of events also proves what I said." Mark argued with reason and did not back down in the slightest.

"We don't have the energy to prop up a weak civilization. To be honest, your level of science and technology is really not worth mentioning, if it weren't for this accident, you wouldn't be qualified to have a dialogue with us, every year countless civilizations like you are sent into the dismantling ring and shattered into powder, you should be happy if you are lucky enough to survive, and you still want to get technology from the Alliance, I think you are thinking too much. The other archon said in a cold tone.

"None of those civilizations can do what we do." Mark replied, immediately leaving the other man speechless.

Now that they are in their own territory, they must be stronger, and their attitude must be tough, this is a negotiation skill, and this is necessary to pull more interests at the negotiating table, but the threat of the Ascendant ship is still not to be underestimated, and if they have to fight to the end, the situation may get worse. However, the alliance side has another favorable clue, since the war, the moon has opened the shield and no longer communicates with the outside world, and it seems that it intends to drag on until the end of the negotiations.

The more things are covered, the more they want to cover up, human beings are desperately trying to protect a certain weakness, and this weakness is related to the spaceship, as long as this is found, the human race will lose all its bargaining chips, however, the alliance now does not dare to hold on to luck, and this is how it thought at the beginning to provoke the war, and as a result, it was forced to stop all warships by the Ascender spaceship with a blow.

"Representative Mark." The first nucleus finally spoke at this critical moment.

"We can agree to the conditions, but one more and one less egg doesn't mean much to us, just as we speak, there are three newly captured planets that have been disintegrated, and most of the technology in them is also duplicated, we don't care about the egg in the earth." "I need that spaceship, give it to the Alliance, and we can consider your proposal." ”
