Returning from the abyss

After Lu Ning sent Humphrey away, he reassembled his team.

"Garuda, I have a mission for you." She took out a token and handed it to Garuda, "I need you to return to Shenghui City as soon as possible to send a message to Helenzo."

"receive."

"In addition, there are three letters, respectively, to Chang Zaihao, Bi Zang and Liu Ye. Your whereabouts must be concealed. Although you may not avoid Jun Ying, you must give her the impression that you are sending a secret message. of."

"Can't Jun Ying know about this?"

"It depends on Helenzo's judgment." Lu Ning said, "Jun Ying cannot make the first decision on this matter. She is not Chen Geng's first leader."

"I understand."

"Go back quickly, and don't mention what we are going through here to anyone other than Helenzo."

Garuda took the order and left. Lu Ning believed in the speed of this demi-human. Although he was not as good as Rishira in terms of explosive power, Garuda was better in terms of long-distance durability. And she needs to arrange some responses for everyone's possible meeting tomorrow.

They are not tourists, and they can't imagine what kind of things tourists can do. Jun Ying and Yu Wenbin's encouragement brought some cognitive help to Chen Geng's people, but this cannot be compared to other tourists.

Just the modifications Humphrey made were poorly received by many people.

"I talked with Humphrey, the guest." Lu Ning said, "Now I need to tell you something. The most important thing is that if you go to meet the owner here tomorrow, no matter what you see, No one can show anything, just hold back the surprise like today."

"Captain, is there anything more incredible?" Ruidi asked.

"I don't guarantee that there will be." Lu Ning said, "Second, you have to pay attention to everything you think needs attention. I may not be able to do anything tomorrow, and you need to make your own decision at this time. You have to send their leader Be vigilant as a person like me and leave no trace behind."

This is considered the job of a scout, to spy on intelligence.

"Next, I will talk about some things that you all need to understand..."

After a night of tutoring, everyone set off again without much rest.

Following the guidance of the map, they came to the area that was supposed to be a wasteland, only to find that a fortress had been erected here.

This technology of raising tall buildings from the ground is definitely driven by magic, but the overall design does not belong to any style of this world at all, but is full of the atmosphere of a doomsday barrier. When Lu Ning saw this fortress, she already knew that the people behind it were not easy to deal with. After all, Humphrey did not raise the fort, so it was probably not his fault.

Ye Ji had already appeared in front of the door when everyone approached the fortress.

"Welcome to the outpost fortress, Steel Pointer." Ye Ji proudly welcomed everyone, "After hearing about your visit, our leader is very happy that other people can build up the power of survival. He wants to meet you. On the one hand, I wonder if you would appreciate it?"

"Of course, that's why we came here. The leader actually came to see us in person? I'm really flattered."

"The first meeting will naturally be more grand. Please come with me."

Yang was not prepared to come to this meeting. After all, he was a little confused after being bombarded with information last night. To be fair, if Christine hadn't come up with a solution, he might have given up.

Under such circumstances, what's the point of coming to meet some people who survived? Under that unknown force, what is the difference between more people and fewer people?
But Christine said these people may have brought another force. And Yang always respects the opinions of several teachers. What's more, Lewanska and Kristine actually came with him in person. Such attention also cheered him up again.

For a leader like him, that kind of fatigue can be overcome with a little patience.

When Lu Ning walked into the living room, she immediately felt someone's sharp eyes sweeping over her and everyone else. This feeling like a thorn in her back made her even ignore the fact that an acquaintance was sitting here for the first time, and instead looked straight back at that gaze.

Orcs, obviously have some traces of aquatic species, and the brown hair ends showing blue are the characteristics of this race. However, the scrutiny in the other party's eyes was what caught Lu Ning's attention the most. The gaze was not condescending, but an extremely detailed assessment. It was to see what kind of skills and strength Lu Ning had condensed into his body. .

Lu Ning looked away from her and then saw Lewanska.

The other person smiled and nodded towards her.

Finally, Lu Ning looked at the center. A young demi-human was sitting across the table. He had a good appearance, but he was obviously not a pampered person. Apart from a slightly tired look, his eyes were very bright.

"Hello." Lu Ning gave a military salute to Yaren, "Chen Geng's subordinate, Lu Ning, captain of the pioneering team, would like to say hello to you."

"Welcome, Lu Ning. My name is Yang. I founded Lingri with a group of friends, so they call me 'leader'." Yang stretched out his hand to signal, "Everyone, please sit down. I welcome you all, but Lingri The city is still under construction and is not suitable for welcoming guests yet, so it would be better here."

"Understood. Then, Chief Yang, I will speak frankly. I originally thought that the person who came to see me might just be a person in charge of diplomacy, but I didn't expect that you would come in person. If I thought correctly, this means that you must have something important. Do you want to discuss your affairs with me?"

"Yes. The reason why I came here is because this is not a matter of one family or one country, but a major matter that concerns all of us, all the survivors. In this matter, we, Ling Sun, can no longer do it with our own strength. We have to deal with it, so I need to meet people from another force, and I need a messenger to convey our wishes to the other party," Yang said.

"It seems that you have also discovered records of pre-civilizations here." Lu Ning said.

"Civilization has always strived to survive since it was free, and it continues to this day. However, we have found many doubts in the records, and have to study repeatedly to think about why there are today's records, and whether the past is credible. So far, we have learned from nature and ourselves Many problems have been discovered from a different perspective, but they are difficult to answer," Yang said.

"So you have discovered the problem and started to seek solutions?" "Yes, so we want to exchange information and results with you. I think, in the face of a disaster that can destroy everything, we can only choose Join forces.”

"I can be responsible for some relatively shallow information, but how do I know that you are not trying to get my information?" Lu Ning said.

At this time, Yang looked aside, and the female orc that Lu Ning was paying attention to immediately spoke: "I'm here to check the information with you."

coming!

Lu Ning knew that this person was not here to watch the fun.

"you are?"

"I'm Christine, and I'm currently in charge of all Lingri's cutting-edge research and development projects."

Lewanska almost stopped laughing next to her. This was the only thing Christine could say in such a serious way - she did have cutting-edge projects in her hands, but she only had all the project teams combined. . Ling Ri's other researchers can't keep up with Christine, and he and Fiona are currently stepping up their training.

"Hello, Ms. Christine." Lu Ning nodded to her, "Since Leader Yang means this, let's get started."

"Okay. You are here from Shenghui City, and you should have the best knowledge of the angels' records. Have the angels also discovered and studied the doomsday records? Do you understand this?"

"The angels have indeed discovered and discussed it, but because most of it could not be confirmed, it was not studied as the most important issue. At that time, the demons invaded, and the angels did not have time."

"What can't be proven?"

"Time difference. The angels' archaeological time research found that this planet may not support so many records, and the ages of the various mineral veins discovered today do not reflect the past. Apart from records, they did not find Other evidence."

"Have they ever questioned the gods?" Christine asked.

Lu Ning was slightly surprised, but still nodded.

"Angels do suspect that the existence of gods is related to previous civilizations or disasters. Angels' research also believes that gods are very likely to have left an impression on previous civilizations, because the origins of gods are unknown."

"From a theological point of view, our gods are more like those born naturally. After all, according to records, the gods came first, and then the race developed on the ground. Gods do not rely on belief, so then It means that the gods have their own system. But why do such gods not form their own civilization circle? Not only do they go to great lengths to create competition between angels and civilization on earth, but they also hide themselves in the Kingdom of God until the arrival of the demons triggers a war? "

"Sorry, I'm not a theology expert, so I can't explain this. And even if God is evidence, we can't say that everything that happened in those records did not happen on the real earth. If you really have a sophisticated enough research project , then based on your knowledge, you should be able to see that the world-destroying wars that occurred in these records were enough to drain the planet's energy several times."

But now, the planet is still running smoothly.

"Yes, this is the most dangerous part of the catastrophe." Christine sneered.

Lu Ning didn't expect that she was actually prepared to give an explanation.

"Now that you have begun to interpret the records, you should still remember what the first disaster was?"

"At the end of the day, time rolls back." Lu Ning said, "People believe that the observed future shrinks into reality, and reality is overwritten by multiple futures, causing disasters, and then producing monsters that roll back. Civilization uses its most powerful Powerful weapons and monsters die together.”

"Very good." Christine said approvingly, "Now that this part of the interpretation has been completed, tell me, what ultimate weapon did that civilization use? Records have been left since they began, which means that this This record has experienced more than ten kinds of apocalyptic disasters and you can still keep it. Their own disasters may be targeted, but how can they prevent the subsequent ones? Will the zeroing disaster not invalidate all their records? Sanity Won’t the virus cause some people to erase records?”

"Sorry, I haven't thought about this. Unlike you, I am only responsible for collecting actual intelligence. As for guesses and inferences, others are responsible." Lu Ning is quite proficient in this set of words.

It's a pity that she met this guy Christine. She could answer questions that she didn't want to answer or didn't know.

"It's simple, because the rollback never ends." Christine stretched out her hand, and Lu Ning saw her pointing at the transit sign.

"sun?"

"You are very keen, Lu Ning." Christine said, "The so-called super weapon is also made by using the rollback itself. After all, it is the only way to control it. They have no doubt that they have understood the phenomenon of time rollback. A certain amount of research and understanding, after all, if my guess is good, that generation is the most powerful and outstanding race on record."

Lu Ning did not understand many parts of what Christine said next, but she understood the core meaning.

That civilization used the entire reality as the reference point for rollback, and started the final rollback with the will of the remaining people. However, their strength at that time had been weakened a lot, and their research on rollback was not complete, so the weapon succeeded and failed. The success was that by rolling back, they eliminated the monster that emerged, but the failure was that the rollback didn't stop.

The sun is the problem born of this failure. The dual timelines of the rollback and the end of the rollback (that is, the world where the observation is generated) create two suns in the real world, but the real world still only receives the light and heat of one sun, and the other sun It is something observed by pure observers. The problem is that every person and every animal on this planet is an observer.

The most serious problem caused under the surface is that the underlying rules are also torn into two pieces simultaneously. Since the world at the end of the rollback belongs to human observation, its various parameters are different from the basic parameters of the natural universe. This also leads to the fact that the products of which part of the world belong to which part obeys which part of the rules, and the conflicting part becomes Rules BUG.

The second civilization that ushered in later should not be called the second civilization. It was a civilization that returned through rollback, but it took a different path under the influence of conflicts in the underlying rules.

Lu Ning didn't quite understand what some of the principles were, but there was one sentence that she was sure she understood.

"Why can all records survive and cannot be destroyed by the end of the world? Of course it is because they are the only future in this world, things from the end of time that neither we nor our predecessors have reached again. Changes in history cannot shake the established In the future, this is the core of the time rollback of the first disaster. That civilization took advantage of this and kept this information to us."
