Chapter 176 Chapter 161

The essence of the fire is not a core that produces energy, but a portal that opens the way to a parallel universe, and the energy extracted from the fire comes from that parallel universe without exception, in other words, the fire is not a production device, but a plundering device, and now this is a common sense knowledge that even Wang Ye, an outsider, has understood.

Therefore, it is difficult to say whether the people who invented the fire in the original Dawn Empire also knew this common sense, perhaps in their opinion, even if it was plunder, anyway, the opposite side was a parallel universe, and what did they have to do with the destruction of their families? And from Yan Luo's memory, Wang Ye can only see the sorrow and remorse of the Dawn Empire for the collapse of one dynasty, and there is no shame of plundering others at all, maybe this princess of the dead country has been kept in the dark from the beginning? Or maybe the people of the Dawn Empire have never been ashamed of oppression and conquest?

They call the Dark Clan the Able Clan, but in fact, they treat the other party as a prop to supply energy, and they don't care about the life or death of the Dark Clan. In this case, it deserves to be counterattacked by others, causing the entire empire to collapse.

While thinking about it, Wang Ye's mind continued to echo with the voice of the Dark Clan.

"All calamities are caused by fire, and at first it was just the irregular surge of the tides of the sea of dark energy, and at this time the weaker individuals of our race could not adapt and died of exhaustion. So we quickly built an energy sail to filter out the excess energy, hoping that this natural disaster would be passed as soon as possible, but it backfired, and soon there was a tsunami and a whirlpool in the sea of dark energy, and the energy sail we built in the Three Rivers system was destroyed in an instant, and more than 100 million compatriots died tragically......"

When Wang Ye heard this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Wait, the fire exists to draw energy, so after being absorbed, the energy in your universe should be attenuated, why are there tsunamis and whirlpools? Is it because the balance of the universe is broken after the energy in the local area is reduced?"

"Tinder is a very mysterious prop, to this day, we can't explain how it works in detail, let alone how those people invented it, but we can be sure that the existence of tinder violates the laws of two parallel universes at the same time. Perhaps it is a prank of the higher universes, or perhaps the mysteries of the universe are endless, and we have only scratched the tip of the iceberg so far...... In short, when the fire is turned on, the energy of both worlds actually increases at the same time. ”

“...... Huh?"

Wang Ye suddenly couldn't accept it.

After the fire is turned on, the energy of the two worlds increases at the same time? There is such a good thing in the world!? No matter how you say it, it can't be explained! Even if the energy nature of the two worlds is diametrically opposed, after the portal is opened, the positive and negative energies should be counteracted, not surged...... Unless the whole law of thermodynamics fails!

Of course, even parallel universes have appeared, and the so-called laws of thermodynamics are not surprising even if they fail. Why do other universes obey the laws of the human universe?

However, these are only details, and it does not matter if they cannot be explained theoretically, the crux of the matter is how to deal with such a disaster after it occurs.

"If we had realized that the disaster was man-made, and poured the power of the entire civilization into building a better energy sail, we might have been able to survive the difficulties, or even a blessing in disguise, after all, the increase in energy is a good thing in the long run, but we acted too late. By the time we decided to fend off the raging sea of dark energy with multiple layers of energy sails, we had lost the ability to carry out our own rescue plan, too many of our compatriots had fallen, too many of our civilization's achievements had been wiped out, and we were powerless. ”

“...... Haven't you thought about communicating with each other?"

"Of course, after thinking about it, after discovering the existence of the fire, we sent an envoy as soon as possible. They don't need to destroy the fire, just shut it down for a while to give us a chance to breathe, or even slow down the speed of adding new fires, and we can take the opportunity to build a firewall. And once we can adapt, we can use the new energy to actively reconcile the sea of dark energy, and send more energy to the other end to help them improve the efficiency of the fire, which is undoubtedly a win-win situation. ”

When Wang Ye heard this, he couldn't help asking, "Isn't that good? Why don't they agree?"

"Because they can't hear us at all. ”

The voice in Wang Ye's mind became a little bitter and sarcastic, and the melody unique to the dark language also dispersed, showing the disorder of the speaker's mind.

"We live in a universe of diametrically opposed nature, and the forms of civilization and life are very different, and just allowing our people to survive in another universe has exhausted the efforts of the people at that time, and it is too late to think more. And when the first messengers finally arrived in the parallel universe, they found that there was a one-way observation between us, that is, we could see the creatures of this universe, but the creatures of this universe could not see us. ”

Wang Ye nodded silently, the observers of the human race and the light clan were in a similar situation at first, the observers could see the human race, but they could not directly affect the human race, and it was not until a long time later that the two sides reluctantly formed a symbiotic relationship, and among the observers, there were finally people who had accumulated enough power to directly affect reality.

But apparently, the DarkClan didn't have that much time back then.

"In a short period of time, we have sent three groups of envoys, each of which has done a deeper self-transformation based on the previous experience. It wasn't until the last time that we finally created a life form that adapted to a parallel universe, but at that time, there were also internal disagreements within us...... Because some people have asked the question, even if this group of emissaries can contact the civilizations of the parallel universe and communicate with them, will the other party definitely accept our plan? Perhaps for them, long-term benefits are not as reliable as short-term gains. And even if they could accept it, how long would it take to implement it? We were already in a precarious position, and the whole civilization could fall apart at any time, and we couldn't afford to wait. Rather than endure these uncertainties, there is a simpler approach. As long as you detonate the sea of dark energy on those anchor points that are communicated by the fire, creating a torrent of energy, you can destroy the fire instantly, and if you go further, add a catalyst while detonating the sea of energy, and even make the fire explode when it releases amazing energy, and destroy it along with the civilization that created the fire and caused the disaster. Although we have suffered heavy casualties and civilization has regressed greatly, we still have the ability to destroy them when the other side is completely unable to observe us. ”

Wang Ye nodded again, expressing his deep understanding of the differences between the Dark Clan back then.

In the final analysis, this is the first collision between two strange civilizations, and no one can guarantee what the outcome will be. A long time ago, the theory of the dark forest was also popular in human civilization, and he was absolutely pessimistic about the encounters of different civilizations between the stars.

The encounter between two civilizations is almost destined to begin with war and end with the destruction of one of them.

"So, you chose to destroy the Dawn Empire?"

"No, until the last moment, we still believed that the meeting of two equally powerful strange civilizations should not be aimed at destroying each other, so we still took a huge risk and sent the last ...... Or rather, a messenger. He is the most powerful individual in my clan, with an unrivaled ability to adapt to his environment. At the beginning of this disaster, he was in the middle of the turbulence caused by the fire, and everyone around him died, but he was the only one who grew stronger and stronger in the turbulence. At his peak, he could even extinguish the stars with his bare hands. However, even such a powerful individual still has to pay a terrible price if he wants to adapt to the laws of parallel universes. After he passed through the Tinder Passage and entered the parallel universe, he was only one billionth in size, and he lost almost all of his strength and memory, and only remembered his mission in the depths of his soul. After that, he will grow rapidly as a creature in a parallel universe, and when his power reaches a certain point, he will automatically awaken the memories in the depths of his soul and restore his identity as a messenger. ”

Wang Ye was only dumbfounded when he heard it.

At the time of life and death, you have chosen such a long and tortuous road full of uncertainties?

"If we want to resolve this disaster peacefully, that's the only way we can do it at that time. The one-way observation effect of parallel universes makes it impossible for us to directly transmit our voices, and this road, although difficult, leads to a beautiful one. If war does break out, we can destroy the adversary, but who can guarantee that the adversary will not be able to do the same?"

"That being said, but in the end, it is the good nature of our people that plays a key role. Wang Ye said softly, "If we were humans, we would not make this choice no matter what, we would rather strike first...... However, judging by the final result, the messenger failed to complete the mission?"

"No, he has fulfilled his mission well, and in just a few short years, he has quickly risen to become one of the most powerful warriors in the Dawn Empire, and has conveyed our will to the upper echelons of the Empire. ”

When Wang Ye heard this, his heart sank.

"And then? They didn't say yes? Because of the inefficient bureaucracy, or for some other reason?"

"The Empire rejected our proposal outright, killed our emissary, and then began to intensify its efforts to create fire, in an attempt to completely eliminate the instability of those of us who live in the energy realm. At this point, the Darkring's voice had faded into indifference, "So we have no choice but to destroy them completely, even if it will cost us dearly, and they deserve it." ”

To be continued.
