Chapter 178: Bet
Xia Lian slowly raised his foot, the graviton quickly wrapped him, he slowly floated, and at that moment, the whole person flew towards the depths of the cave like a rocket.
I don't know how long he flew, it should have been about 20,000 meters underground, Xia Lian felt that the temperature around him was rising significantly, and there were more and more parasites, and soon, he stopped in front of a path.
At the end of the darkness, a red light loomed, what seemed to be fire, and what seemed to be the light emitted by magma.
Have you gone to the center of the earth by yourself?
Xia Lian thought to himself, but continued to float forward.
"Dongdong~Dongdong~"
A sound similar to a heartbeat came from afar, because the frequency was about the same as his own heartbeat, Xia Lian almost thought it was his own heartbeat, but he soon came back to his senses, and his current transformed human body did not have a heartbeat.
As Xia Lian approached, the heartbeat became louder and louder, and gradually, the scene behind the red light gradually revealed in front of his eyes.
His hole shrank slightly......
……
Xia Lian stood on the edge of the cliff, and at a glance, it was an endless fascia structure, with a scarlet shimmer, it was beating very rhythmically, and on it, there were countless eggs of parasites, and some parasites crawled in it.
The temperature here is very high, even comparable to the surface of the sun, but fortunately, the body of the modified person is very resistant to high temperatures, and ordinary machinery cannot even reach here.
"Your Highness." Xia Sha's voice came from Xia Lian's ears, "The scanning system has been turned on, and what you see is certain that what you see should be an unknown cosmic life.
It is not recorded in the database of the Milky Way ....
However, there is a record of this thing in the data you brought back from the Ajeriman people, and it was retrieved by the system.
This thing, or rather, this race, has existed in this universe for a long time, long enough to be traced back to the Big Bang.
The Ajeriman have captured and parsed this population, but the data appears to be somewhat damaged, and the main structure is a large number of primitive particles......
The primordial particles here seem to be the fifth element, and their significance to the universe is ......"
"Destruction, creation."
Another voice suddenly sounded in Xia Lian's mind, deep and melodious, like a thunderclap, his hairs stood upside down at that moment, and he looked at the thing in front of him that was wrapped in fascia.
"We're finally officially meeting, human."
The voice continued to ring in his head, and Xia Lian was finally sure that the voice just now was not an illusion.
"Who are you?" Xia Lian asked.
"You've got an answer in your heart, haven't you?"
Xia Lian fell silent.
"You can call me ..... Yephes."
"I've been watching you from the moment you came to this place." The voice continued.
"At first, I thought you were just a bunch of humans who accidentally took refuge here.
But then, I found out that your identity doesn't seem simple.
You can gather faith and use the fifth element.
But the divinity in you is not enough to sustain you in all this. ….
In our memory, we have never seen a life like you, you are God? Still is.... People?"
The person here should be an ordinary life that is not a god, but it was transmitted into Xia Lian's mind by her in a way that Xia Lian could understand.
Xia Lian stared at the thing in front of him and smiled, "It doesn't matter if I'm a human or a god, I don't want to conflict with you, since this is your territory.
Then we'll leave right away."
"This is not my territory." "This is just a cradle of our life."
"Cradle of Life?" Xia Lian frowned.
"As you can see, I was not really born yet
。」
Jephes spoke, "My people have placed me here so that life here can provide me with the nourishment to be born into the world.
This is how our people were born."
"The nourishment you are talking about should be the life on the Eternal Night Star, and the last civilization perished because of you." Xia Lian said.
"I know what you're trying to say, Eternal Star, created by my people, including the life on it.
You humans can keep livestock in captivity and grow crops to harvest them when they have multiplied to a certain number, why can't we?
Is it because the animals you keep in captivity are more stupid and inferior to you?
The same is true for us, of what is on the Eternal Night Star.
Everything in this world, the operation of heavenly principles, all follow certain rules, and there is no unnecessary existence.
Just like the ecology of a planet, the big fish eat the small fish, and the small fish eat the shrimp, following a certain circular cycle.
The reason why some planets need the existence of gods is because gods can sort out the rules for the planets and create cycles.
The same is true of the universe.
Where do you think so many planets in the universe came from after the Big Bang?"
"Born from the Big Bang." Xia Lian said.
"After the Big Bang, it is true that a lot of basic matter was born, but it was we who condensed these substances into stars." "We created a large part of the planets in the universe, so a long, long time ago, some people called us the Star Creators.
The dragon of creation.
Our birth and growth need to use civilization and life, and after we are born, we will create many civilizations and lives.
This is the cycle of the universe."
Xia Lian was silent, without speaking, just quietly staring at the thing in front of him.
"What do you want to do when you tell me so much?"
"You're special."
Yephes said, "It's completely different from the humans I've seen, do you want to be my volume?"
Xia Lian raised his eyebrows in some surprise, "You want me to work for you?"
"I still have a long way to go from childhood to adulthood, we have a long growth cycle and we need to harvest a lot of fruit.
But in the last few hundred million years, the progress of these fruits has been faster and faster every year, and it has become more and more difficult to harvest every year.
I need to find some subordinates and spokespersons.
You're a good fit."
"How many lives will you devour when you reach adulthood?" Xia Lian asked.
"Probably, a few thousand more than the Eternal Night Star." That thing said. ….
Xia Lian fell silent, there are almost 100 million or so humans on the Eternal Night Star, hundreds of billions of people, and the principality is only 400 billion.
This guy has at least eaten up his principality from childhood to adulthood.
"That's a lot of money." Xia Lian said.
"That's true, so I've learned how to get souls over time." Yephes said, "In the past, I was too impatient to come into the world.
Eventually, it led to the destruction of a civilization on the Eternal Night Star, and I was still not enough to be born.
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a few million years for this planet to give birth to another intelligent civilization.
But the arrival of another group of people gave me a chance.
They planted the seeds of your civilization on that planet.
It simply makes me ecstatic."
"Therefore, there is the existence of the Elder Falcalyptus, which will steadily provide you with souls while ensuring the continuation of this race." Xia Lian said.
"It's still scarce, but it's moving forward, and now, I'm finally the last step left..."
"Is this war?" Xia Lian frowned.
"That's right, so I don't care about your interference with the tundra, because either side wins, it's good for me.
Eventually, all the people on the Eternal Night Star will merge with me and provide nourishment for the birth of a new star.
This is perhaps the greatest honor for these lowly ants..."
After a pause, the voice continued.
"So, what do you think? Human, you will gain eternal life, gain great power.
You will be under one man, and above ten thousand."
"Like the Pope?"
"That's just a lowly ant, and you're more important than him." There was a playful disdain in his tone.
Xia Lian fell silent, his eyes flickering.
"What if I don't agree?"
The voice was silent for a moment, "I actually know a rough idea of your previous plan, although I don't know the specifics, but you shouldn't have placed a wormhole generator on the Eternal Night Star, right?"
Xia Lian frowned, "You eavesdropped on all of our words?"
"Listen a little, I'm asleep most of the time, and the range of my power radiation is not large, but this star system can still be covered.
I know you have a door that allows you to travel freely to and from light years away, but that door can only go one or two people at a time.
You can't take everyone away in a short period of time.
And the faster-than-light engines of your ships won't work under the influence of gravity.
It's not hard for me, you can't escape."
"If you want them to survive, with you, we can make a bet."
Xia Lian frowned, "What?"
"Bet on this war, if the Promised Land wins, you agree to my request, and if the Frozen Land wins, I can let you and your companions go, how about it?"
Xia Lian stared at her quietly, and after a moment, he said with an elusive smile.
"Of course, gladly."
96.
