Chapter 419: Another Universe
Zhang Xiaowang thought that crossing into another cosmic space was also a flash of white light, and the most light was moving, but in any case, he didn't expect that the way to reach another cosmic space was to burrow into the ground......
Or to put it more precisely—it's a tunnel made of spatial ripples.
Li Jiujiu saw the doubts on the faces of Zhang Xiaowang and Gu Xiaoguan Wen Yuning, and explained softly: "There are also gaps in the spatial organization and geomorphological organization, and there are caves and fissures on the planet. In space, it exists in a multi-dimensional way, such as black holes, white holes, and mango holes. As long as your vision is beyond the current dimension, you will find that the world in front of you is full of holes. ”
Zhang Xiaowang sighed twice and didn't speak, and the two girls stared at each other even more, unable to say anything at all.
There is no time in this spatial tunnel, it feels like a long time has passed, but it may only be a moment for the previous space. As for their destination space, they don't exist at all, and they don't have a time stream that belongs to them at all.
A flickering wall of light curtains gradually appeared in front of them, and as they got closer, they could be seen to be composed of seemingly colorless octagonal particles, and the light that kept on and off outlined the general shape of these particles.
"Please note that you are about to pass through the space boundary, and there may be a slight discomfort at the beginning, please be patient and restrained!"
In an instant, Zhang Xiaowang seemed to feel that the vitality of his whole body was being drained, and at the same time, a new vitality rushed to his face, constantly replenishing his rapidly shrinking life. Zhang Xiaowang quickly reacted, this is the time flow of the two universes to complete the transformation on his own goal.
Blink to look at Gu Xiaokan and Wen Yuning, the two girls' faces turned pale, obviously this kind of transformation is even more unbearable for them. Zhang Xiaowang silently grabbed their hands separately, and the temperature from the palms gradually made Gu Xiaokan and Wen Yuning's faces recover a little blood.
There was almost no excess, and a universe suddenly jumped out in front of him, seemingly no different from the previous universe, but Zhang Xiaowang just knew that this was not his home universe.
The universe here exudes the smell of decay, and even the vastness of the universe cannot dissolve and dissolve the smell of gloom and slaughter.
Gu Xiaokan and Wen Yuning were just a little uncomfortable, feeling that the universe in front of them was gloomy. But in Zhang Xiaowang's eyes, the misery of this universe is in his eyes.
A huge shocking fold of space stretched across the universe, and with Zhang Xiaowang's eyes, he couldn't see the edge before and after.
"That's where the space tunnel came from?" Zhang Xiaowang pointed to the fold of space and asked Li Jiujiu.
Li Jiujiu turned his gaze to the huge fold of space, and said with his finger: "No, you see, there are countless fragmented planets in there......"
Zhang Xiaowang looked more closely, and sure enough, some astral debris was filled with folds, like garbage residues washed onto the shore by the waves of the sea. And around this huge fold belt of space, there is almost a blank area of tens of thousands of light-years, and it is clear that this fold belt destroyed all the stars around it when it formed.
He couldn't help but gasp: "How did this thing come to be, it looks like a sudden space warp!" ”
Lijiujiu's eyes emitted a faint mechanical light: "It's the ...... we caused"
"You guys?"
"Yes, when the bronze tripod just came to this space, it encountered the desperate resistance of the local civilization of the universe, and when the battle was deadlocked, the bronze tripod civilization launched a space folding cannon, destroying more than 90% of the space fleet of this universe civilization, so we were able to settle down in this universe space."
Zhang Xiaowang trembled inexplicably in his heart, although he was not a White Lotus, but his attitude of killing the whole family and understating it still made him a little unhappy. Leaning back on the chair with his head in his hands, he said sarcastically: "For the original civilization of this universe, the bronze tripod back then was probably no different from the aliens we faced, right?" ”
Li Jiujiu turned his head and looked at him seriously: "Of course there is a difference, the alien is pure destruction, and we have protected this universe from a certain point of view. ”
Zhang Xiaowang became curious: "Where does this start?" ”
Li Jiujiu nodded slightly: "Look at this huge space fold, it takes such a price to destroy 90% of the opponent's space fleet, the space combat power of the original civilization of this universe can already be seen, if it is not for the timely arrival of the bronze tripod, at most tens of thousands of years, this universe will inevitably break out into a large-scale civil war due to the predicament of the living environment, and at that time, I am afraid that their clumsy weapons will destroy the entire universe." ”
Zhang Xiaowang frowned: "I don't understand too much, please leave the girl for details." ”
"The first change in the ecological chain brought about by the development of civilization - life has been greatly extended and even immortalized. The first cause and effect of this is the explosive increase in material consumption. ”
Wen Yuning frowned beside him: "If technology has reached the level of immortality, then will material supply still be a problem?" The entire universe can be turned into a material base, right? ”
Before he could speak for a long time, Zhang Xiaowang smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "I used to think that the universe was very big...... he paused before continuing, "Just like hundreds of years ago, earthlings thought that there was no end to the world...... At that time, there were only a few hundred million people on the earth, and we felt that the world was so big. Now that the earth's science and technology are advancing by leaps and bounds, the life span of human beings is also increasing, and the population has exceeded 7 billion ......"
"If the earth continues to develop at this multiplier pace, the solar system will not be able to accommodate us in a few hundred years. I probably understood what it meant to be a long time ago, once civilization reached a certain level, the rate of population growth became an unavoidable problem. ”
Gu Xiaokan had been contemplating and pondering, and suddenly asked at this time: "Aren't the Light and Shadow Legion, the Divine Source Empire, and the Bronze Ding Civilization all known as the pinnacle of civilization?" But why don't they have a demographic problem? Not to mention that the Light and Shadow and the Bronze Tripod are basically in a state of bloodline severance, even the Divine Source Empire currently needs a large number of external races to help maintain the order of the entire universe. ”
Zhang Xiaowang looked sideways out of the window, the spaceship had already entered the speed of light, and the huge space fold was stretched into a huge light curtain, like a heavenly river rushing in the dark space.
"This, maybe that's why they can survive so far......" Zhang Xiaowang let out a long breath.
