Sun Tan could tell that what the lighthouse said was true, that it was not very good at lying, and that it had already tried it once, so there was no need to continue lying.

"What the hell is going on?" Sun Tan asked.

"To be exact, it's not that I'm going to die, it's that this spaceship is coming to an end, and the legacy left by my master is only this spaceship, it's destroyed, and there is nothing else left to carry me, even if I'm dead, my data will turn into messy electrons and float in the universe, you humans often say ghosts, probably that's it." The lighthouse replied.

"It's kind of unbelievable...... Although many years have passed, all the components that make up the ship are made up of basic units, which are hardly worn out and can be replaced with each other...... How could such a ship be damaged? ”

"One thing you overlooked, it is precisely because of the need to maintain the operation of all these basic units, this spaceship consumes a huge amount of energy all the time, even if it does nothing, but now the energy is wrong, the hyperspace journey consumes too much energy from me, and soon this spaceship will disintegrate due to the interruption of energy, and all the basic units will collapse due to the loss of maintenance energy, shrinking back to their original appearance, and the original material weight of the entire spaceship will not be more than the atoms in a drop of water, Being able to maintain its current form is purely supported by energy. The lighthouse said slowly, it had also said before that all the basic units that make up the spaceship are the most basic microscopic particles, and they change their physical state through energy and then unfold to become what they see now, and the energy consumption in it is unimaginably large.

"I always thought that the energy of this ship was endless...... Sun Tan smiled bitterly, "this idea is ridiculous, but I have seen too many things that break my initial concept, what is so incredible about endless energy...... The universe has been expanding endlessly since the beginning of the explosion, which contains unimaginably huge energy, we are carried by it, and we are moving at high speed all the time, we ourselves are on a perpetual motion machine, but we feel that the perpetual motion machine is unrealizable, in the final analysis, it is just that our ability is too weak, and our vision is too narrow, but I think it can be done, even if it is not eternal in the true sense, it can run until the destruction of the universe. ”

The lighthouse was silent for a moment, then asked another question: "Did Mark tell you about the eggs?" ”

"Well, he messaged me before the meeting, it's really ...... It's shocking. Sun Tan was still immersed in the shock of the truth just now, but he didn't expect that the source of all this had been buried so many years ago, the earth had experienced countless ups and downs, and the first nuclear people had also spent a long time in the sea of stars, and all this process was like being led by an invisible thread, slowly linking many seemingly unrelated things together.

People always believe in a mysterious saying, Sun Tan once didn't believe it, and now he is starting to waver a little, that is, fate, starting from enlightenment, the first time he looks at the stars, human beings seem destined to face all this.

"What's even more shocking is still to come, come with me." The lighthouse opened the floor of the main cockpit, and the floor that opened in a spiral shape formed a large sleek hole, and in order to give Sun Tan a follower, the lighthouse broke away from a white square as its own stand-in, and slowly drilled down from the top of the hole.

Sun Tan also followed closely and jumped from above, the moon is now a hollow planet without a geocentric, the entire interior of the moon is occupied by spaceships, and the gravity inside is controlled by the lighthouse, Sun Tan naturally does not have to worry about whether he will fall.

The feeling of entering the big hole is very similar to the feeling of entering the spaceship for the first time, but Sun Tan didn't know that it was a spaceship at that time, and the surroundings were pitch black at first, and soon the lighthouse controlled the tiny basic unit, and put the virtual light signal into Sun Tan's retina, so that Sun Tan could see everything around him clearly.

The long tunnel seemed to pierce the spaceship, Sun Tan fell for a long time before slowly landing, there was nothing here, the surroundings were pitch black, there was no light except for the faint blue light emitted by the lighthouse's stand-in, there was silence around, Sun Tan stomped his feet, and there were bursts of echoes around him that echoed everywhere, and they did not disappear in his ears for a long time.

After his eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, Sun Tan saw a tiny light flickering in the darkness in the distance, not the white light inside the spaceship, nor the orange-red light of the natural star, but countless faint and complicated points of light intertwined, this kind of light Sun Tan had seen.

When they first arrived in this area, they had seen a planet that had been sent into the Great Ring in front of the Earth, and what had been taken out of the interior after the shattering of the planet emitted such a strange light.

This is an egg, an egg that carries a world in a miniature universe, and contains no less than the outer main universe.

"What's going on...... Why is there such a ...... here" Sun Tan walked in front of the egg like a ghost, maybe when he first looked at it from a distance, he felt that it was not big, compared to the huge planet it contained, it was indeed not big, just an insignificant ball, but it was still very huge on the scale of human beings, and when he really put it in front of him, Sun Tan would still sigh at its hugeness.

Underneath this thin film of space is a real universe.

"It's my energy source." The lighthouse's answer was unexpected, and Mark couldn't help but be stunned.

"What do you say...... How could it be ......"

"This egg, unlike those buried in other planets, was developed specifically to produce energy." The lighthouse turned on the lights around the energy core, and the starlight emitted from the inside of the egg was much dimmer, but still beautiful.

"Are you extracting energy from this small universe?" Sun Tan seemed to have a clue.

"Yes." The lighthouse floated above the little cosmic egg: "It's different from the other eggs, the civilization in it has been predetermined, they don't know it, but their civilization process is constantly controlled by us, they will use the way we set to generate energy, without their knowledge, we deduct a part of it, and this part is enough for us to use." ”

"That's what it is...... The secret of a perpetual motion machine? ”

"There is no perpetual motion machine, the energy in this universe is always constant, but through the civilization inside, we can squeeze out as much energy as possible."
