Volume 2: The Conflict of Fate Chapter 5: Covenant and Reversal

[Eh, how did you get here?] 】

There was something strange about this message, as if it was full of curiosity about the arrival of midnight.

Moreover, the message is that certain beings seem to have some knowledge of them.

Could it be that this is the three-level civilization that exists behind it!?

Midnight did not relax at all, and broadcast again in a very serious manner:

"Repeat it one last time, show up and surrender immediately, otherwise I will directly destroy this area with the antimatter annihilation bomb in my hand!"

[Hey! Don't go overboard! It's hard to find such a safe star field, don't be impulsive, it's a big deal that I'll show up. 】

As the message arrived, a vague figure appeared in front of the starship.

It has an extremely peculiar shape, barely visible to the naked eye, and does not seem to have a physical state, but a collection of some kind of energy body, similar to an electromagnetic field.

The moment he saw this form, Midnight seemed to understand something, and said:

"Electromagnetic energy spirits?"

[You know, that's great, so you don't need to explain.] 】

Its words reveal excitement, like a child meeting a soulmate.

Except for Midnight, the others were puzzled, and Midnight had to patiently explain to them:

"Electromagnetic energy spirit, this is a special kind of life form in the universe, almost does not need to rely on material media, formless and incorporeal, is a convergence of fields and waves, as for why this form appears... It may only be possible to be fully clear until the Spirit is understood. ”

The three of them nodded, silently remembering it.

In the vastness of the universe, there will always be all kinds of strange life forms, and human beings have just entered the sea of stars, and they really know too little about this.

Luckily, they have a presence of midnight.

After a brief explanation, Midnight looked at the electromagnet in front of him and asked a crucial question.

"Is your race a third-level civilization that is spying on us?"

[Surveillance? What surveillance? Level 3 civilization, oh, it's the standard of you humans, right, we've already surpassed this level. 】

It replied almost nonchalantly.

This answer made Midnight a little confused, "Those micro-robots that exist on Earth, and the energy creation that absorbs the Hope Star, aren't you the ones who did it?" ”

[yes, what's wrong, what's wrong with this?] 】

"Isn't this surveillance?" Midnight said indignantly, "You want spirits, you want energy, and you want to put us humans to death!" ”

[No, we never had that idea. 】

"And what is your purpose?"

[To help you human beings develop as soon as possible, this is our agreement that we have already made. 】

"Promise? It's an agreement again!? The moment he heard this, Midnight seemed to have returned to the time when he had first crossed over.

At that time, the first information he captured was the agreement of an unknown being.

Could it be that it can't be.... Those so-called unknown beings are actually these electromagnets!?

[Well, as you think, a promise from the past to the future will be fulfilled in the present present.] 】

[It's just that we didn't expect that you, who were so powerful before, would fall to such a low level as you are now to an unimaginable level, maybe this is fate...]

The electromagnet seemed to recall something, and let out some inexplicable and wonderful sighs.

Midnight immediately captured the information and roughly sorted out some ideas.

It seems that hundreds of millions of years ago, there were extremely powerful human beings who made some kind of pact with these electromagnetic races, and today, hundreds of millions of years later, the pact is fulfilled.

And what is in it is necessarily crucial.

Midnight wanted to ask, but the electromagnetic spirit seemed to directly sense his intention and responded:

[You can't say it, you can't say it, the information itself carries power, not to mention that these involve "those" things, once they are spoken, they will come to you in an instant, and then everything will be over. 】

[Now, it's not that time, your race is still too young, wait a while, we have been waiting for hundreds of millions of years, so why not wait for this meeting. 】

You will find all this eventually, and then it will be revealed, now, go back and get the food we have given you, that is the first step for you to move forward. 】

After saying these words, the entire space unbelievably set off ripples, and the layers of spatial mezzanine were lifted, and the starship was sucked into it.

By the time they reappeared, midnight they had returned to the miraculous creation.

All of this was so incredible that several people present thought it was a delusion.

But all the evidence from the previous clues suggests that all of this is something that actually happened.

Midnight came to his senses and tried to jump back again, only to find that the previously recorded coordinates had disappeared and never seemed to have appeared.

At this time, the contact of the earth base station also came at the same time, and he asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" Your Excellency, now that we have captured this miraculous creation, should we return? ”

Midnight sensed something was wrong, "Did you notice any signs before?" For example, spatial ripples, all kinds of strange phenomena occur, and so on. ”

"Report, we haven't observed anything strange yet, the capture plan went well, and then Your Excellency stalled for a few minutes, and it's the point in time."

These words immediately made Midnight a little frightened.

This means that the human base station has never detected the anomaly just now, and the space jump has never occurred.

Suddenly, he understood the method used by the electromagnetic spirit.

Time!

It reversed time and covered it all up!

And the reason for the cover-up must be that it involves extremely critical information, and why not just say it, this must be related to the harm of "those" information.

That's the maximum it can convey.

And this means of reversing time reflects the technological level reached by its own civilization - the advanced cosmic civilization race!

They're far more powerful than you think!

But even those as strong as they seem to be bound by some kind of constraint, and they have made this pact with humans hundreds of millions of years ago, and they need the help of humans.

All of this is subtly directed to "those".

What exactly are "those" things?

Midnight has almost no clue, but even knowing their true colors is now almost impossible for humans to do.

They will even be forced to leap by a [Demon Cocoon]!

Right now... Let's take care of the current situation first, such as absorbing the technology contained in this miraculous creation.

Knowing the inside story of the midnight, he naturally does not worry about other dangers, which has made it clear that it is the creation of the electromagnetic spirit, and the purpose is for the development of mankind.

So, he picked up the contact machine and said the words that everyone had been waiting for for a long time.

"The capture plan was successful... We humans have triumphed! ”
