Breaking the "loop" seems to be the purpose of the existence of the "strange loop", and it is also the gift given by the "time loop".

And the concept of "circulation" has gradually gained an eyebrow when Li Wenyuan learned that there was still a "previous era".

Is the universe in a "cycle"?

This is a well-known "cosmic ending hypothesis", not only in the Milky Way, but also in the current "spiral galaxy alpha" and "cradle" galaxies.

This is a question that will basically be discussed in the development of cosmology: where will the universe end up?

The "Big Bang Origin Theory" is already a widely accepted theory, and as civilization has developed to a certain extent, the observation of the universe will make them more and more inclined to this theory.

Since the universe has an origin, it must also have an ending.

In thinking about the "cosmic ending", the "cycle" is a hypothetical ending.

This theory holds that the universe began with the Big Bang "singularity" and will eventually end up with this singularity.

The universe is expanding because of the initial explosion, but there is a limit to the speed of this expansion, and when there is enough matter in the universe and the gravitational pull is large enough, the universe will stop expanding and pull the universe to shrink inward, eventually forming a singularity with infinite density and temperature.

Regardless of what happens after the contraction, this theory is also known as the "Great Collapse", which points to the end that "the universe will eventually collapse due to its own gravity, destroying everything".

But if we consider what happened after the contraction, then this singularity can be seen as the beginning of the birth of a new universe, so that the universe will go back and forth in the cycle of "Big Bang-Big Bang-Big Bang", which is also the source of the "cycle" theory.

And after Li Wenyuan knew that there was still a point in time of the "last era", he also felt more and more that this seemed to be the experience of this universe.

"The nature of the universe born in each cycle is different, and the civilization formed is also different, and it is very normal for the creatures of the previous universe to not adapt to the water and soil in the current universe."

"If the 'circular theory' is confirmed, then no matter how outrageous the civilization is, as long as it has not surpassed the universe itself, the final outcome will only be in the 'Great Collapse', and the civilization of the previous era is unwilling to be destroyed, and it makes sense to try to leave their inheritance in the 'archive'."

“…… In that case, is the 'Strange Cycle' meant to break the 'Cycle'? But...... Those civilizations were able to find a way to leave their mark, and even civilizations like the 'Fire Chaser' found a way to survive the 'Great Collapse', so why wouldn't they? Did you foresee the end of this? Or is there still a 'last era', and the universe has actually 'cycled' many times? ”

Li Wenyuan's consideration of the "last era" and the "Great Collapse" caused Li Wenyuan to have many doubts, but after that, these doubts were quickly discarded by him, because the premise of the "cycle" was based on the theory of the "Great Collapse".

However, according to the observation results of the universe, not only the vast majority of interstellar civilizations, but even Li Wenyuan himself has to admit that the universe is actually expanding at an accelerated pace, and it seems that the "great collapse" will never happen.

Even some indigenous civilizations that have just ended the industrial age and entered the mechanical age can rely on the ingenuity and observation of their scientists to discover the fact that "the universe is expanding at an accelerated pace."

If the theory of "great collapse" is true, then the universe should be decelerating and expanding, so Li Wenyuan also doubted the correctness of the "cycle" theory.

He's even thinking that the cycle he refers to isn't actually a cosmic cycle, but something else.

However, the "Infinite Divine Machine" continued to speak at this time:

[Hello, hello, do you still have questions? We'll know everything.]

[We have been completing our mission all along, we thought we had succeeded, but in fact this black hole is not our goal, it is already too late]

[In order to maintain the anti-gravity system, we have abandoned most of our mass outside the horizon, and perhaps now they have long since turned into a mass of outgoing energy that has been thrown out by the black hole]

[We don't know how long the time in the outside world has passed, maybe if you stay here for a second, tens of billions of years will pass in the outside world, this is something that will make our processors collapse, this universe may not usher in a "heat death", but we must complete our task before the "Great Collapse" occurs]

[We will do our best to meet your request, in order to gradually establish a kind image in your cognition, and ask you for benevolent assistance]

[Now what we pay still does not meet the minimum requirements in the calculation, which makes us uneasy, do you still have doubts?] 】

The "Infinite Divine Machine" behaved a little cute at this time, as agreed in some theories, the robots will not deceive, conceal or the like, everything about them will be transparent and directly displayed on their faces, and the "Infinite Divine Machine" will directly state their purpose like this.

Li Wenyuan naturally has no idea about mutilating life, even if the other party is a machine, and what surprises him is that the "infinite divine machine" seems to think that the end of the universe is a "great collapse", which is inconsistent with the current observation results and mainstream theory.

He doesn't think that this kind of mechanical intelligence, which looks like a cutting-edge machine, will not discover the phenomenon of "the universe is expanding at an accelerated pace", the only possibility is that the other party knows some secrets and has predicted the ending of the universe in advance, even if this ending is not in line with the current mainstream.

So he asked about the "Great Collapse."

[The "Great Collapse" is inevitable, this is the cycle that is going through here, this is what our Creator says]

[Of course, we have also noticed that the universe is expanding at an accelerated pace, as evidenced by the increasing redshift of distant objects]

[Under normal circumstances, the end of the universe may be a "great tear", or a heat death, or a cold death, but it cannot be a "great collapse"]

[But in fact, the premise of all this is to "maintain the unchanging state of nature"]

[External disturbances will lead the universe to the opposite path, which our Creator knows through uninterrupted inquiry]

[They believe that even if the current universe expands faster and faster, it is absolutely impossible for this universe to expand endlessly, and it will enter a "big collapse" one day in the future, carrying out an endless "cycle"]

[And in order to find the "variable" that determines this outcome, our Creator created us to assist them in calculating this problem]

[You will be amazed at the final answer, I only took on the task of calculation, and the result was told to us by our Creator]

[What determines whether this universe will go to the "Great Collapse" is the total number of living things]
