Chapter 31: Worry

"We have been relieving for thousands of years, and we have blamed ourselves for thousands of years, and the taste is not good, if we are given one more chance to choose, we will never choose to escape again. With a low buzzing sound, after being suppressed for many years, the metal lifeform finally found the object to confide in, especially the Xiuer in front of him had exchanged memories with his brother, and he was considered half a brother, which gave him the illusion of repenting in front of his brother, so that he couldn't stop as soon as he spoke, "At the beginning, the soul warrior who suddenly appeared in our universe let us know that there are other spaces outside the universe, so we spent nearly 10,000 years trying to break through the cage that plagued us. Who knows, what we broke through was actually the barrier that protected us, and it was we who released the space of destruction with our own hands. ”

"Our years of struggle against the destruction of space finally ended in failure, and when the universe was already half swallowed, my brother decided to concentrate the strength of the whole clan and rush into the destruction space. To this end, the elder brother did not hesitate to modify his body, loading countless external equipment, and turning himself into a star-like space fortress, enough to accommodate the remnants of his kindred mounted on his body, and combine into a single whole. ”

"The characteristics of our race, you carbon-based creatures seem to be difficult to understand, when we mount, we can fuse our own energy with other people's energy, as if we are really one. According to the brother's plan, concentrate everyone's strength to challenge one last time, try to find a way out of the destruction space, if it succeeds, civilization can continue, even if it fails unexpectedly, everyone can face death together, and it is a heroic death. ”

"Everyone agreed to this plan, including those of us, after all, we have no other way out, but the closer we get to the final battle, the more scared I am, I'm afraid of death. The lifespan of our race is extremely long, with hundreds of thousands or even millions of years of lifespan, and the longer the result, the more afraid of death, especially when I think of what I saw before, those elders ran out of energy and were annihilated in the confrontation with the source of destruction, I am even more afraid, not only me, but all of us who remain, are full of fear of death, and feel that even if they can exist for one more day, it is better than dying in the source of destruction immediately. ”

"So, two days before the start of the operation, I escaped with these people and fled into the depths of the universe, only to be far away from the shadow of the destruction space. On the day of the operation, my brother found out that we had left the team, and kept sending us communication messages, but I didn't dare to answer at all, and finally turned off the communicator directly, and the only thought was to escape, escape from danger, and escape from my brother. ”

"It wasn't until the scheduled time had passed that I stopped for the first time and reopened the communication channel, and sure enough, as I thought, my brother didn't change his plans because we left the team, they had already rushed into the destruction space, and after I closed the channel, he didn't try to contact me again, just left me one last piece of information. ”

"I tried to delete the message several times, but I finally opened it, and in the message, my brother did not blame me for being cowardly, but told me that he understood my thoughts and respected my choice. No one knows which choice is right, maybe he is the one who leads everyone to a dead end, and I am the one who preserves the flame of civilization, so neither side can give up, he will work hard to survive, I also have to lead the people to persevere to the last, everyone must try to live, looking forward to maybe there will be a chance to meet again in the future. ”

"Hehe, I've been looking forward to seeing my brother again one day, and I can apologize to him in person, but unfortunately, I can't wait for this day anymore. Brother, he really didn't have a ...... in the end Do you blame me?"

"Yes, not really. Shuer shook his head, this is not comfort, but really not, when reading the other party's memory, there is no resentment and anger towards his younger brother, only a faint regret and unwillingness, I am afraid that in his heart, he has already forgiven his younger brother's cowardice, or as said in the message to his younger brother, he has understood and respected his younger brother's choice from the beginning, even if his younger brother is likely to be the culprit who made the plan fall short.

That's right, the act of fleeing from the battle is not without impact.

In fact, the attempt of this race is very close to success, presumably before this plan, the race has also been repeatedly demonstrated, including the total energy of the aggregate and other data, will be calculated many times, it will definitely ensure a certain success rate, it will not be a blind mess, once someone escapes, the total energy will be reduced, it will definitely affect the result.

In the end, the Battlestar collapsed in the rift space, and the number of people became fewer and fewer, and in the end, only one of them escaped to Pavatiga, where they died in loneliness and regret. However, if these thousands of people did not flee and their energy flowed into the Battlestar, then the time to hold on would definitely increase a lot, and maybe they would be able to successfully reach Pavatiga, even if the Battlestar would inevitably fall apart in the end, most of the metal lifeforms would be able to hold on, and there would not be only a few thousand people left.

However, it is pointless to say anything more, as the elder brother's metal lifeform has completely forgotten these stories, and as the younger brother's lifeform, he has endured the pain of remorse and guilt for thousands of years, although he is indeed alive, but it is more sad than dead. At this time, instead of explaining the truth to stimulate him, it is better to continue to hide it, and let the truth sleep forever in the depths of time.

"He has never hated you, maybe in his heart, he also expects you to be able to continue civilization with the remnants of the clan as he said, heh, if he knows that you really survived, he will only be happy for you, how can he blame you again. Shul chuckled, "I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Shul, Shul Wright, this is Saf, from the Brown Star Civilization, I don't know if you are ......"

"In order to make it easier to get in touch with your carbon-based civilization, I named myself Roland. "Metal lifeform, no, Roland's head turned a few times, and his voice was still a little low, "Thank you for your comfort, but I understand my sins...... Unforgivable. ”

"But the merits of continuing civilization are enough to wash away the shame of the past. Shul smiled and changed the subject, "Why don't you tell me what happened after that?"

"After that, it was thousands of years of escape, until a thousand years ago, our universe was finally completely covered by the destruction space, and we had nowhere to escape, but like our brothers, we united and rushed into the destruction space. Letting out a self-deprecating laugh, Roland muttered for a while in the language peculiar to metal lifeforms before continuing, "After coming in, I realized how much pressure the people were under in the first place, and we almost did our best to ensure that we would not be destroyed by the destruction space. ”

"We barely hold on, after twenty years of drifting in the destruction space, we are already on the verge of collapse, and all the energy of the eternal core is always on the verge of being exhausted, heh, compared to my brother's energy distribution ability, I am still too far behind, and I am not qualified to take on the responsibility of leader. Just when everyone was already desperate and thought it was time to repay the debt they had owed to their people, the gods came down before us. ”

"Huh?" Shul said with an eyebrow raised like a real Brown Starman, "I heard you mention the gods just now, Roland, do we really have gods in the world? ”

"It seems that the direction of your civilization is relatively close to ours, in the past we did not believe in the existence of gods, we have always thought that gods were just fantasies to comfort ourselves when we were weak, so I am not surprised at all that you would raise such doubts, in fact, you are not the first race to question. Roland streamer waved and made a gesture of spreading his hands, "I didn't know how arrogant we have been until I saw her with my own eyes, you also saw it just now, this great planet, do you think there are other theories besides miracles to explain her existence?"

"Well, maybe you're right. After hesitating for a moment, Shur shook his head, "So, what does a god look like?"

"I can't answer that question. Roland said regretfully, "We can't see it at all, we can only see the general outline." ”

It's right to see clearly, mortals can't look directly at the majesty of the gods, this is an iron rule that distorts the thousands of worlds in the void, even if the scientific and technological strength is strong to the level of metal lifeforms, it can't be violated, well, this is more assured.

"None of our scanning equipment can decipher the physical features of the gods. Not seeing through Shuer's secretly happy heart, Roland patiently explained, "So I don't know the appearance of the god, I can only say that the outline is similar to this female creature, of course, I mean the upper body, the lower body of the god is still normal, completely different from her." ”

"Eh, me?" Moriah tilted her head and pointed at herself, as if she wondered what this had to do with herself, "Yoyo, I'm just a deer, I'm a mount, I'm a wild animal, I don't understand anything about what you say, Yoyoyo." ”

"Ahem, don't pay attention to her, her intelligence is about the same as that of a wild animal. Shure rolled his eyes, not bothering to bother with Moria, "However, most of the humanoid creatures have similar female upper body profiles, well, except for a few special parts. ”

"That's true, but her ears are also shaped like this, very close to the silhouette of the gods, so when I first met you, Hum was startled, thinking that you and the gods are from the same world. He also secretly told me that he was worried that you were going to wake up the gods and make us lose our place. ”

"Hehe......"
