Chapter 76: The Fall of the Eternals

"What!! Eternals have been trapped by the human fleet in the vicinity of Arctura for thirty years??! and you tell me that although humanity has paid a heavy price, it is only a matter of time before the Eternals are destroyed?"

After the group of "demons and monsters" led by Lu Lie and Yao descended near the constellation Andromeda, the human fleet stationed in the third cantilever was like a great enemy, and over the years it continued to send starships to mobilize near the constellation Andromeda to oppose it. After several failed attempts at communication between the two sides, this confrontation lasted for a full five years.

At the same time, what surprised Lu Lie was that the human fleet of the future world had such a strong strength, and Li Yuan described it at all, in his impression, the human beings in the future world had been almost destroyed by the Eternals, and they were all hiding in all corners of the universe and breathing. Not to mention that it is difficult to build a fleet of such a large system, even if it is to gather 500 people.

All of this made Lu Lie feel as if things were going out of control.

Even when he asked Yao, Yao was a little confused by the second monk. After all, it was just a clone of Li Yuan on top of a giant tree, and it was also the first time it set foot in the homeland of humans, before that, all it had experienced was the giant tree, the Borderlands, and the human world of 300,000 years ago.

After five years of confrontation, some aliens chose to leave this universe and return to their homeland. Some aliens choose to go to their hometowns to report safety to their families first, and then continue to return to this universe to confront humans. But more interracial options remained. Because they have been in the universe for tens of thousands of light years, and when they come out, they find that all their family and friends in their hometown have died of old age, and their hometown has become strange. Some alien universes have even perished outright. For them, naturally, there is no need to go back.

In the past five years of confrontation, these alien races have always maintained a high degree of self-discipline, and have not had any impulses against the tense and extremely nervous human fleet. After continuous communication and exchange of information between the envoys of both sides. The Grand Marshal of the Human Fleet finally reluctantly believed that the purpose of these alien races in this universe was not to invade and destroy the human world, but on the contrary, they came to help humanity destroy the eternal ones who had destroyed the world.

But in the galaxy ark used by humans to negotiate, Lu Lie, Yao, and several foreign representatives who had sent them here were taken aback. Because they got the news that they didn't need to intervene, that humanity itself was almost done with the Eternals.

Moreover, the losses suffered by the human universe in this Eternal Calamity were not as tragic as Lu Lie imagined. In order to fulfill his paradox, the Eternals have slaughtered countless people in this universe. But I can't bear that human beings have been multiplying and scattered in this universe for so many years, and the population base is large, and there is no problem for the survivors and survivors of each planet to make up hundreds of millions. With a population of hundreds of millions, it is enough for human beings to preserve their industrial civilization and pass on the spark of civilization.

What's more, the Eternals use the power of cause and effect to kill only humans themselves. The factories, starships, and space bases built by humans in the past have not been destroyed. These are all ready-made things, and when human civilization is recovering, it is enough to directly pick up what is left by the ancestors.

And in the ark of negotiations between humans and aliens, the human delegation also told Lu Lie and his party why humanity was able to suddenly turn the tide of the war against the Eternals five years ago and force the Eternals into a dead end.

Just about six years ago, when the remaining survivors of humanity, the rebels, were still hiding in all corners of this universe, hiding from the Eternals one by one, a futuristic man who left this universe hundreds of years ago to go to other universes to find a solution to the causal paradox returned to his homeland. And, he brought back a way to restrain the Eternals.

The survivors of humanity did not initially believe that the methods of the future man would work. But there will always be the first person in the world to eat crabs, and the first person to experiment with the methods of future people. When the Human Resistance discovered that it was indeed able to restrain the Eternals, it was the first time that humanity had rebelled against the Eternals after hundreds of years of the war of extermination.

The horn of resistance is like the first spark in this boundless dark universe, once ignited, it can never be stopped.

Countless human survivors have emerged from the planet where they are hiding. For the first time, the positions of the pursuers and the pursued, who had been hunted for hundreds of years, had finally completely reversed the situation. They once thought that the Eternals were invincible, the closest force to Him in this universe, and they also thought that there was no other way out of the future fate of mankind than to be found out from the planets where they were hiding and wiped out one by one. But they were wrong, and after hundreds of years of waiting, this time, fate put the choice in the hands of humanity.

Humanity began to use the information brought by this future time-traveler and began to launch a counter-encirclement campaign against the Eternals.

Hundreds of millions of hiding survivors have united, starting starships and cannons left behind by their ancestors hundreds of years ago, and the dusty industrial lines and assembly lines have begun to be launched, all just to launch a final offensive against the Immortals besieged in Arcturus.

It was only a matter of time before the Eternals were defeated.

The survivors of the post-war period are currently divided into three camps, one is the "Free Federation", which has the largest industrial strength and population base, with a population of about 60 million and hundreds of colonized planets. It is the main force in the current army of encirclement and suppression of the Eternals, and it is also the controller of the first watch station in the third cantilever to discover this group of demons and monsters that have crossed over.

The other two forces are the "Cosmic Government" with a population of 20 million and the "Resistance Alliance" with a population of 40 million. These two sides are also important aids in the encirclement of the Eternals' army. But as the war drew to a close, the governments of both sides began to withdraw their troops from the vicinity of Arcturus, apparently to put all the pressure on the Eternal Ones on the Free Federation.

Naturally, there is political intrigue hidden in this. After the fall of the Eternals, the supreme government of the surviving human beings was naturally elected from these three camps, and it was natural that the strength of the other side should be consumed as much as possible before the end of the war, and preparations for the construction of the post-war world.

The scheming and stratagem hidden in all this are naturally not within the scope of Lu Lie's consideration. In his last life, after he came down from the tree, he has been helping the Marquis of Jianning to pacify the world after the destruction of Zhushi Town. In the end, he ended up defeated, and Lu Lie was tired of all this.

"Is that future man still alive? If so, I want to meet him. ”

Lu Lie said.

If someone is as smart as others, it is naturally easy to guess that the future person is naturally Li Yuan. It's just that the only thing that makes Lu Lie curious is how he knows how to fight against the Eternals? Could it be that in Huangquan Kingdom, what new discoveries did he make after he left?

Lu Lie didn't have much hope that Li Yuan was still alive in this world, so he just asked casually.

Sure enoughβ€”

The human delegation politely said: "The future man who brought back the information is naturally the hero of all of us." Unfortunately, he returned to the universe as a crippling centenarian. Although we, the Free Federation, immediately organized the best medical team to prolong his life as much as possible, and also created a clone for him, preparing a new body for him. But he refused all this what he deserved. He said that birth, old age, sickness and death are the laws that exist in the universe. We humans should no longer forcibly reverse these laws, or we will have devastating consequences like the Eternals. ”

What's more, in the process of searching for hundreds of years in the other world, he has lived for too long, too long, so long that everyone around him and familiar people have died one by one. Eventually, there is only one human left in this world from the past, and only that person is left to be his friend. He said that he was lonely, and that he wanted to grow old quietly and go to another world to reunite with his friends of the same era. ”

He said he was not a hero of humanity. All the methods found against the Eternals were found by his former lover, and had nothing to do with him. It's just that the discoverer of the real information has died in another distant world different from this universe, and she died, but she preserved that information in a special way. He had pursued her for hundreds of years, finally finding her wreckage and the method left behind, and bringing it back to the universe. His task has been accomplished. ”

Lu Lie's pupils were not only slightly moist.

This is all the things that Li Yuan did before leaving.

If he can do this, he doesn't owe anyone anything. He doesn't owe Qiu, he doesn't owe himself, he doesn't owe all mankind, and the only person he owes it, Yao, has already paid off his debts for him.

"That's right. As if remembering something, the human delegation added, "It's a little regrettable that the discoverer of that information is the daughter of the Eternal when she was a human being? So, for the sake of political correctness, the three major governments of mankind did not mention the name of that great lady in their propaganda, but put all the credit on Mr. Li Yuan alone." ”

"It's the only thing we've been able to do as the hero wants. But if there really is a heaven in this world, he will definitely understand our intentions when he looks at heaven and sees it. ”

"There must be heaven in this world. He will also watch you in heaven. Lu Lie said absentmindedly.

This negotiation is almost coming to an end.

It seems that there is no need to bring this group of aliens over to the war. Everything was solved in a way that was ten million times better than I thought. These alien races should also withdraw their troops and leave this universe as soon as possible. Leave more safe space for human beings to develop as they prepare for post-war reconstruction.

Before leaving, Lu Lie made one last request.
