"Gamma-ray bursts, supernova explosions?!"

Ian froze.

He had long known the 'Plague of Light' prophesied by the Hall of All Souls, and he vaguely regarded it as a major problem that he had to face in the future, but the young man didn't expect that everything would be so coincidental...... His own dragon spaceship was just about to leave the Prison Star Prison, but it encountered a supernova explosion!

Damn, is it too late? Ian was convinced that he was already the fastest in this omen.

Instead of getting involved in the war, not spreading the lineage of the arcane path, all the research was done in preparation for the selection of the most suitable spaceship pilots and living beings faster-than-light ships - this time Ian, who was in the Omen, basically abandoned all other branches and single-mindedly farmed and took off as fast as possible to go beyond Hell!

But as a result, it was still one step slower than the Scourge of Light...... The terrifying storm that would destroy the entire Terra solar system will sweep across the starfields and turn everything to ashes.

[Did the Plague of Light actually break out at this time?] 】

Seeing this scene, the Extreme Wind Dragon King was stunned for a short time, and then immediately became solemn: [Although the prediction of the later time is not accurate, it is about twenty years...... It's faster than we and the Hall of All Souls have imagined! 】

Turning his head sideways, the Dragon King's tone was extremely sincere and serious: [Ian! This is probably the most important prophecy of the Terra since its birth, and whether we are prepared for it or not, you are the greatest prophet Terra has ever seen! 】

No. It's not that simple.

"Don't be in a hurry to say what is great or not...... I'm probably the greatest, but there's obviously more information behind this thing......"

But the young man didn't pay attention to the words of the dragon king, his mind turned back to what he had seen and heard before: "This is not right! ”

Ian suddenly frowned and whispered, "This is not a coincidence! ”

"The Mechron Explorer had just been out for a few minutes before it was immediately hit by the Plague of Light...... It's not normal to think about it! ”

Raising his head, Ian's eyes lit up with a cyan glow like the sun, and this light emitted countless rays, and one ray continued to magnify, penetrating through the endless hazy fragments of illusion and the future, turning into an omen in front of him.

The path that was about to come to a standstill seemed to have gained momentum and began to work again, gathering all the fragmented light and shadow into a real picture.

The Aurora Dragon King was stunned and watched as the future omen that was clearly about to end moved again, he wanted to open his mouth to dissuade the other party from continuing to prophesy, but he really couldn't wait for the next opportunity, no matter what, Ian was the strongest prophet he had ever seen, and he had to protect it.

But when the dragon king saw Ian's eyes, he couldn't speak. He is definitely not a person who will be persuaded by others, he firmly believes in his own right thing more than anyone else, and as long as he determines the direction, he will move forward as straight as the light wholeheartedly.

Therefore, even the years and the future can run through.

Rumble!

Endless light filled the orbit around the edge of Terra's solar system, and the scorching pillar of light was like a sword of materialization, piercing the pitch-black vacuum.

But it was precisely because of this that Ian saw the shape of the 'loophole' above the Prison Star Prison!

The loophole takes on an irregular diamond shape, from which surging light gushes out, as if the water of a dam that has been accumulated for countless years once bursts, and when it lands, it turns into an endless flood to flood all living beings.

If light is the water that fills the universe and flows silently, then the supernova light of this gamma-ray burst is the flood of water, a flood that is enough to flood the world!

Ian stared at the light, and then, his eyes widened slightly.

"It's not an attack, there's no man-made trace...... It's just an ordinary cosmic ray burst, but the energy level is several times greater......"

He muttered to himself, "The mechanical dragon had actually passed through that diamond-shaped gap, and theoretically, its physical entity had passed through the Prison Star Prison - but in the next moment, the Scourge of Light erupted...... Why? If it were such a coincidence, I would never believe it. ”

"Then, in other words, the fact that the mechanical dragon left the Prison Star Prison itself led to the outbreak of the Scourge of Light. Although it may sound like a devastating blow as soon as someone is found to have left the Prison of the Stars, if there is a more convenient way to destroy the seeds of civilization ten thousand times than this, I am inclined to believe that this is a 'trap', and it should be a 'natural trap'! ”

"It's a matter of time and space...... Yes, the probe showed that after the mechanical dragon left the Prison Star Prison, a space-time anomaly was detected after a while......"

"Extreme Wind Dragon King!"

Suddenly raising his voice, Ian turned his head sideways and looked at the Thunder Dragon with burning eyes: "Prison Star Prison...... Or rather, what is the principle of the cradle! ”

[This...... I really don't know how the cradle was built and how it was built, even the first ancestor could only lay it according to the plan issued by the Creator, but if it was said to achieve its purpose, I knew.

After all, the Extreme Wind Dragon King is the king of true dragons, the most powerful group of true dragons, once he is serious, he will quickly enter the state and provide information to Ian, who seems to have discovered something: [The goal of the cradle system is to use the ether to create a curtain that separates the universe from time and space, enveloping all solar systems with intelligent life]

[Aether can manipulate the structure of space-time, change the basic force value of the universe, and then hide all these galaxies with intelligent life and wrap them in a pocket universe]

[The wrapped galaxy will become a cradle, from the outside world, everything is normal in this area, nothing exists, even the demon of the end can't find it, this is the best protection plan that has been verified]

Looking at the loopholes that erupted from the Scourge of Light, the Aurora Dragon King was worried: [But Terra's cradle was destroyed due to the battle between the creator of the main ship and the demon of the end]

[What is its current state, I don't know ......]

"Really...... Well, enough, thank you. Ian fell silent.

At this moment, all the information he had received from the Sequoia base flashed through his mind.

- The light of the stars is gone, and at the same time, it disappears in unison.

It's impossible. Because different stars are not far away from Terra, even if they are destroyed at the same time, the light will be extinguished for years, decades, centuries, or even longer.

There is only one possibility represented by the uniform extinguishment...... That is the Prison Star Prison, a super-giant 'light shield' that evenly envelops the entire star field.

Of course, because this shield is most likely a type that continues to expand through a few key datum points, the disappearance of the stars is not regular, so it will be misleading.

But here's the problem.

The light that was intercepted...... Where did it go?

It is distorted along the structure of time and space and transmitted to the rear, just as the water deforms when it passes through a boulder, and then converges again to form a stream of water behind the boulder...... Or is it like a black hole, unilaterally devouring all the light, creating absolute darkness?

Ian stared at the supernova burst of light in front of him, and he felt that he had gradually found the answer: "The light is contained in the cradle - if it is a complete cradle, all the light that shines on the cradle will be absorbed, and no information will be transmitted back to it, whether it is used or simply stored." ”

"However, Terra's cradle is broken."

"Light can pass through the broken gap...... But are the gaps and loopholes really empty? It's like an iron ball that has been chiseled out of a gap and it can't be repaired? ”

"I think...... Not really. The cradle definitely has a self-repair system, just like a person is missing a piece of skin, although the skin will not grow back for a while, but there will be blood scabs and tissue fluid covering the wound to prevent external germs from entering the human body. ”

"And this self-healing system must still be based on 'space-time distortion' or 'fundamental force rewriting'."

"For example...... Slows down the speed of light. ”

Whispering to himself, Ian's voice gradually increased, and he realized that he had found the right train of thought: "Yes! That's it! ”

"In Terra, you can still see the starlight coming from this huge gap, but how long ago was this starlight? Is it light that came out hundreds of years ago or is it light that came out thousands of years ago? Is there no obstruction of the light coming through, or is it light coming through a glass or a membrane?! ”

"Extreme Wind Dragon King, you say, do the stars we see really still exist?"

Suddenly questioned by Ian, the dragon king somewhat understood the young man's train of thought: [You mean to say that the damage of the cradle has actually begun to be repaired a long time ago...... The gap seems to be empty, but in fact space-time has been distorted, forming a space-time film? 】

"Yes!"

Ian said firmly, he looked at the gap in the distance again, and said in a deep voice: "And the effect of this space-time film is to slow down the speed of light as much as possible!" ”

"The Star God is a super civilization that can change the underlying rules of the universe and use the ether to penetrate all time and space, and even the black hole event horizon can break through - they can completely use the ether to reduce the speed of light in a certain range of time and space, causing an effect close to 'black domain'!"

"From the outside, the light is completely absorbed, reduced by hundreds of thousands of times the speed of light, and it is almost no different from being stuck in place - after falling into the black field, these lights cannot be reflected back, but are frozen in place like bugs in amber until the cradle system is completely repaired and absorbs them all!"

Raising his hand, Ian pointed to the surging stream of light and took a deep breath, "And then it's the most important thing." ”

"Polar Wind Dragonlord, what would happen if a stellar supernova very close to Terra exploded, and a terrifying light blast and gamma-ray burst hit Terra?"

Without waiting for the Polar Wind Dragon King to answer, Ian said to himself, "If the cradle is complete, then even a supernova explosion will be meaningless, all the light will be absorbed and deflected. ”

"But there is a gap in Terra's cradle, and countless lights and energy are slowed down by the 'space-time membrane' on the gap, and they are stagnant on the surface of the membrane...... With the power of the cradle, these lights can be stagnant for 10,000 years, 100,000 years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, until the cradle is restored to its wholeness. ”

"But...... We upset the balance from within. ”

At this point, Ian clenched his right fist, and he gritted his teeth and said, "The appearance of the mechanical dragon has broken the balance of the space-time membrane - the light that has been stored for an unknown number of years has been stacked together like a burst of water after the space-time membrane's ability to reduce the speed of light fails, surging towards the interior of the Terra Star Field!" ”

"The light that has been stagnant for many years, and finally poured out, is the body of the Plague of Light!"

It's easy to say, but it's actually quite ordinary.

Think of the Prison and Terra as a metal house and a human in the depths of the ocean, under the protection of the metal house, humans can live in the narrow deep seabed, once they leave the house, they will be crushed by the water, drowned, suffocated, in short, they will die.

The good news is that this metal room is extremely strong, even if the ocean currents outside are churning, it will never break, and the bad news is that this metal room has a gap, although it has been filled with a layer of glass, the effect is almost the same, but the position of the glass is very fragile.

There are good and bad things in this layer of glass, and people in the house can look at the sea through the glass and imagine what the outside world is like, and the bad news is that it is really very fragile.

A person who is vulnerable enough to be in the room will be completely shattered by the mere touch of it.

After that, the endless sea water will pour down, submerging the house and killing the person completely.

The Prison Star Hell is the iron house, the low-light speed aether membrane at the gap is the glass, and Ian is the one who can't contain his curiosity and touches the glass, causing the sea water to pour back.

If he hadn't sent out the Mechanical Dragon, the Plague of Light might not have erupted at all!

But here's the problem.

"The Hall of All Souls also predicted the outbreak of the Plague of Light, in other words, even if I didn't send the Mechanical Dragon, there would be other reasons for the Aether membrane to break, this reason is unknown, I don't know if it is caused internally or externally."

"Moreover, the last echo on the way of the Spiritual Calamity Dao obviously flew towards the outside of the Prison Star Heavenly Prison...... Why didn't He cause the plague of light? ”

Ian thought for a moment, then laughed: "Laugh to death, it turns out that he didn't go out at all!" ”

The Mechasaurus is a material entity that uses the Aether Furnace to create a space bubble that moves faster than the speed of light, so it can crash through the Aether membrane from the inside, causing the Lightscourge to erupt.

And the Dark Gold Dragon had already actinized, and it was essentially a ball of light at that time, and of course it was stopped in place after entering the etheric membrane that reduced the speed of light from the inside - so the Dark Gold Dragon did not leave the Prison Star Prison at all, he just entered another prison.

It is precisely because of this that Ian, who is driving the Void Beast Death Monarch, will sadly say that this is a road that will not work.

If you want to get out of the gap in the Prison Star Prison, you must face the divine power of the 'Supernova Explosion'.

"Haha...... It's so much fun. ”

Smiling and smiling, Ian's expression became calm again, and his face was expressionless: "Now, the cradle has become a real prisoner of the stars. ”

Single-mindedly, abandoning humanity and abandoning Terra, echoes of leaving this star field, was finally imprisoned in the Terra star field.

Just like Ian, who is bent on leaving Terra in this future, regardless of the war on the land...... Eventually, it induced the outbreak of the Plague of Light.

[In that case, what should we do?] 】

At this moment, the Extreme Wind Dragon King had fully understood the current situation of Terra and the Cradle System, and he frowned and said, "Even if it is true that you will no longer go to the outer side of the Prison Star Prison, there is a high probability that there will be other reasons that will cause the low-speed ether membrane to break, causing the Plague of Light...... We have no other way but a hard cap.]

Or ...... Try to fix the cradle system and speed up its self-maintenance.

There is no problem with the statement of the Polar Wind Dragon King, let alone the current Terra, even if Ian really reaches the sixth energy level in the future, it will not be possible to block the ray burst generated by the supernova explosion - even if it is to use the planetary shield of God, there is a high probability that it will be okay.

It is impossible to observe in the omen whether the energy level of this ray burst can evaporate the planet, or the level of cleaning the surface, if it is to clean the surface, then the imperial capital is estimated to be able to shelter, and humans should be able to survive...... As for the former, Ian thinks it's better for everyone to carry out a 'Happy Twenty Years Plan' as soon as possible, everyone can waste resources and enjoy waiting for death, and everyone will turn to ashes together.

Therefore, we can only pin our hopes on the 'cradle system' itself.

As long as the cradle system can be strengthened, the reshaping and strengthening of the ether membrane can be accelerated, and the plague of light will not break out, then there will be a glimmer of life for humanity.

But in that case, the possibility of humanity going beyond the cradle would be completely blocked.

Ian closed his eyes.

Not to mention whether you can do it yourself, whether it can affect the operation of the cradle system......

Even if it really can.

Ask yourself, would he do that?

Ian is clear. Even if he dragged all mankind to die together, he would never give up that possibility.

This kind of thinking mode, which is so solid that it is almost a thought seal, is the 'thinking model' that Ian has built up generations before him.

He will never give up, he will never compromise, he will definitely fight until the last moment, and then, send all his experience to Ian in other parallel planes, and the defeated self will drag a world to destruction.

He didn't care about the scolding of man, the desire of man to survive, the desire of man to give up his efforts for comfort, the desire of man to nest in the cradle until decay and decadence.

"It turns out that this is the origin of 'not caring' in my heart...... Because I have no fear of death, my demise will be the next nourishment for me. ”

Slowly opening his eyes, his eyes flickering, Ian laughed instead, "I'll try my best not to get to that point." But if it really comes to a situation where you have to make a choice...... O beings of Terra. ”

"I'm not going to say I'm sorry."

Raising his head, Ian no longer looked at the gap in the Prison Star, but turned around and looked in the direction of Terra's star, where Terra was.

"Now I still have a choice—but the other me, you've failed, humanity no longer has a choice, you only have five years left, what will you do to deal with this catastrophe?"

He whispered to himself, the anticipation and curiosity hidden in the young man's eyes, in the terrifying gaze of the Extreme Wind Dragon King on the side, was an emotion even more terrifying than madness: "Even if all the beings in this universe don't believe in you, I will believe you." ”

"Because if it were me, there would be a way."

The white-haired boy stared at the faintly flickering sun on the other side of distant time and space, and behind him, the light of more than a thousand suns was roaring and rushing by.

Five light years away, five years, this is humanity's last chance.

Ian leapt to his feet, he followed the torrent of light that destroyed all things, towards the sun and Terra, and the dragon king of the extreme wind held back the shocking emotions in his heart, and set off with him, and the boy sat on the dragon king's back, walking with the light that destroyed all things.

Time flowed rapidly under the watchful eye of the prophet.

Soon, five years passed in a flash.

Ian, who had been waiting patiently, felt something, and he looked up and looked ahead.

Terra is already at hand.

However, strangely enough, there is no trace of life on the planet Terra, and there is no sign of any biological activity.

Cities have long since been in ruins, and the kingdom has lost its life...... Even the forests disappeared completely, and the entire continent and ocean seemed to have been completely sifted through by some incredible monster, devouring them all, leaving not even the slightest insect residue.

This once prosperous homeland of mankind has completely turned into a silent dead land.

But Ian raised his brow and showed a look of joy.

"That's how it should be! The beast of a thousand stars, the spark of a thousand stars, I knew I could do it! ”

Raising his head, Ian looked at the sun in the distance, his gaze carried a kind of madness that made the Extreme Wind Dragon King feel a chill: "Next, it's you!" ”

From the perspective of the Prophet beyond time and space, both he and the Dragon King saw it in this instant.

I saw the destruction of the sun.

Buzz –

With a huge gravitational oscillation that distorted the entire star, one after another huge coronas flew out, licking the surrounding cosmic space-time, bursting out of a super-giant stellar gas structure beyond human imagination - at this moment, the sun looked like a super-giant octopus with countless tentacles from afar, but each of these tentacles was enough to easily pinch the planet and play with it like marbles.

Soon, however, the tentacles and the stellar material that erupted began to shrink.

Shrink towards the inner core.

The collapse began.

Because of the sudden strong gravitational phenomenon, the outer material of the star began to collapse towards the inner core, and these majestic stellar materials were pulled to hit their own cores, and in the most terrifying fusion reactions, heavy elements heavier than iron began to be born, and incredible energy erupted, mixed with the reaction force generated by the impact of the outer layer of the star on the core, roaring in all directions!

This is a supernova explosion!

At the moment when Terra's sun collapsed for unknown reasons and began to explode as a supernova, it released hundreds of times more energy than it had released in the past combined, and endless waves of light and stellar matter turned into a torrent of light, rushing towards the outside world at the speed of light!

And at this very moment.

With Ian's wild laughter, and the Extreme Wind Dragon King's gaffe roar, they saw the 'giant' hidden in the light!

It was a ship that had completely transformed into light, a giant beast that had completely melted into light!

A giant dragon the size of the moon flapped its wings in the explosion of supernova and flew to the outside world with the momentum of this endless torrent!

That's the dragon—the dragon of light!

It has already actinized, accelerated to the speed of light for a period of time after the supernova explosion, and flew with the spewing torrent of light and stellar matter, maintaining relative speed - the dragon of light does not need to fight against the unstoppable explosion of the stars behind him, but uses this power to ride the wind and waves, maintaining an almost eternal 'actinization' and 'light speed travel'!

And the power of the supernova explosion caused by the collapse of Terra Stellar engulfed the aftermath of the 'supernova explosion' that leaked from the gap in the prison star heaven in an instant!

Yes, perhaps, the supernova light leaking out of the gap comes from a star that is larger than the Terra Sun, and the energy is even more majestic...... But it has traveled through endless time and space, and it has gone through a long time.

So, in front of a newly erupting supernova, its light was engulfed and dissolved in an instant.

And the dragon of light roared, speeding against the engulfed orbit of light, towards the gap in the Prison Star Prison, which is also the final exit!

The light of the Terra Sun envelops it almost forever, and the 'Sun of Today' will never set, and the Light of Yesterday will be left behind forever.

This eternal 'generation ship' that maintains the speed of light and uses the power of one supernova explosion to fight against another supernova - this Ark of Light will be full of the souls of all human beings and all Terra creatures, heading towards 'tomorrow'!

This ending is another path that Ian chooses in the endless future.

Its name is 'Lone Dragon', which is also 'Ark', but also 'Tomorrow' - in order to go to tomorrow and meet the future; In order to see the bright stars and bathe in the light of the stars, even the sun that gives birth to all living beings can be completely destroyed and turned into a driving force to go to distant places......

[——The path of extinguishing the stars——]

At this moment, Ian was almost out of sight of the dragon of light...... But I could barely see some afterimages.

Even if the core part was built by Ian, just as the previous dragon was controlled by all the crew members, it was impossible for Ian to maintain such a large dragon for actinization by himself.

It also gives Ian the room to continue to observe.

- Able to fly out! Definitely fly out!

- No matter what the result is, whether it is hope or despair, this time, it will definitely fly out!

The golden rainbow light shone, and the dragon of light roared, and it followed the supernova light, aiming at the inner side of the prison star, and the final gap flew away—

It went through the hollow.

It's like traveling through countless planes.

Although it is a little sparse, the stars that still exist are shining.

The Dragon of Light has come to the Prison of the Stars!

- Succeeded!!

At this moment, Ian wanted to shout, he saw despair, and found hope, even if he did do a lot of unbelievable and excessive things in the process, but the end result was good!

But he didn't make a sound.

The white-haired boy is like falling into an ice cave.

Because, from the inside of the Prison Star Prison, the light that erupted from the star Terra did not continue to spread farther away.

The light that led the dragon of light out of the Prison Star Prison was suddenly blocked by something after running for a while.

Is that...... It's pitch black, it's churning, it's indescribable...... I don't know how to describe it in any language......

Eventually.

The light stops there.

For the prophet saw the end.

The end of darkness, wriggling and spreading among the stars, hovered around the space-time, and he found nothing, did not notice anything, neither the stars nor the cradle seemed to exist, and he could not notice them at all.

It seems that in this world, only He is the only real being, and everything material cannot be tilted even the slightest bit of his gaze.

He is indeed so, an incomprehensible, inconceivable, indescribable and inexplicable being, hence the name of the end—the end of the stars, the end of civilization, the end of reason, the end of logic.

Perhaps after hundreds of thousands of years of wandering in the concept of humanity, He will leave this too flat plane and go to another place.

However, at this moment.

At the moment when the dragon of light broke away from the cradle along the supernova light.

The darkness of the end turns—if the action of wriggling, twisting, almost flowing and flipping in the universe is called 'turning'.

He turned.

Then, 'look' to the 'Dragon of Light'.

Ian couldn't see anything.

Haha, it's been so long to foreshadow, it's been written! Ask for a commuter pass!
