Become a legend in the interstellar

Chapter 542: Boundary-seeking Conjecture
Cowboy Xia looked at the silent Su Xia curiously.

Their personalities are like two extremes, one is talkative and the other is taciturn.

The old collector sat aside, wearing a long robe, with cloudy eyes and a thin body. He looked like an ordinary old man who was about to die, with nothing special about him.

"Old man, are you really that collector? Why don't you look like me? You don't have any momentum at all. Are you a fake?"

Cowboy Xia stretched out his hand curiously and pinched the old collector's skin, as if to see if it was a dummy.

"Young man, be respectful to the old man." The old collector glanced at him and swatted his hand away.

With that huge star battleship around, the collector's identity cannot be faked.

He looked at Su Xia, who was sitting in the middle, and asked, "Is the boundary-finding machine here with you?"

"Ah."

Su Xia nodded, but did not take out the boundary-finding machine, but said: "I want to know all the information about this machine."

"Okay, you have reason to know..."

The collector looked at the three identical Su Xia, took out a portable projector, and pressed it lightly.

The projector shook and immediately projected a three-dimensional image of a strange machine on the table in front of several people.

It is a boundary-finding machine.

"There are many legends about this machine, and there are different opinions about its specific function, but the appearance of the three of you confirms one of the rumors, that is... it can connect to other worlds."

The collector paused and continued: "Of course, there are other explanations."

"Some people say that the purpose of this machine is to create clones and instill false memories into the clones, making the clones think they are from another world. In fact, there is no other world at all."

"what?"

Hearing this, Cowboy Xia's eyes widened and he immediately said it was impossible.

He is a real person.

He has real memories and is definitely not someone's clone.

If it is really a clone, how to explain the battleship he brought with him?

"Believe it or not, it's just subjective. Everyone can have different opinions."

The old collector spoke slowly and gave a lot of information about the boundary-finding machine.

This machine is very old.

It has existed for countless epochs, as if it has existed since the Big Bang.

Regarding its role, most people in the outside world still believe in the first theory, which is to find another world.

The destructive forces in deep space think they are looking for the real world.

"This is nonsense. If we are looking for reality, then which of our three worlds is real?" Cowboy Xia said nonchalantly, "Could it be that all our three worlds are real and only this world is fake?"

"There is such a saying."

The old collector nodded slightly and continued: "But there are also people who believe that all worlds are fake and delusional. Only by destroying everything can we see the truth."

"Why do you have such an idea?"

"Doubt." The old collector pointed at Cowboy Xia's head, "Have you ever doubted your own existence? Are you created by God, or have you evolved?"

"I think it evolved." Cowboy Xia replied.

"Are you just a virtual character simulated by a supercomputer? Is the world we live in a false space in a game or movie? Or is it the spiritual world common to all living things? If so, we What does his flesh and blood body look like?"

"This... makes sense."

Cowboy Xia didn't refute, and thought about it seriously.

There are countless possibilities in this world.

Occasionally, there are some unexplained phenomena that will be regarded as bugs in the false world by interested people.

"If this machine is really so powerful, who created it?" Cowboy Xia asked again, "Is there really a creator?"

"This involves a legend that has been circulating for countless thousands of years..."

legend.long long ago.

In this universe, there is a very ordinary little inventor.

He makes money by inventing practical gadgets, has a happy family, a happy life, and a carefree first half of his life.

But one day, his planet was affected by an interstellar war, his hometown was destroyed, and his family and friends also died in the war.

After the war, he was left alone, numb, sitting on his ruined home.

After that, he disappeared for a long time.

It is thought that he either died or left the planet that grieved him and went somewhere else.

A few years later, he suddenly appeared again.

At that time, he seemed to be crazy.

He was disheveled, ragged, and chattering all day long, talking incomprehensible words, like a hopeless mental patient.

He said the world was false and that his family and friends were not dead.

Only their virtual bodies died, while their real bodies were still alive in reality.

He lived like this crazily for more than ten years.

More than ten years later, he built a machine in his dilapidated factory, claiming to be able to see through falsehood and see the truth.

Later, on a stormy thunderstorm night, a dazzling light suddenly erupted in his factory.

"No one saw him again after that."

The old collector's voice was old and he narrated slowly, telling the story completely.

Some people say that the inventor successfully went to the real world and reunited with his family and friends.

Others say that he just died somewhere accidentally.

And the machine he built is the Xunjie that countless star forces are looking for now.

"What a outrageous story." Cowboy Xia couldn't help complaining, "How can a crazy inventor come up with such a powerful machine?"

"It's just one of the origin stories."

Old collectors say there are many more origin stories.

The one he just mentioned is just the most widely circulated one, and has been recorded by many forces in the starry sky.

As for whether the inventor ever went to the real world, it is unknown.

Many people think that he may have just gone to a different world.

"Old man, if this machine is obtained by those destructive forces, will they really be able to use it?" Cowboy Xia asked.

"Have."

The old collector looked solemn and said: "It is said that this machine can link to different worlds. Every time it is connected, it will leave an anchor point in that different world."

"Anchor point?"

"Yes, for example, the world you are in." The old collector said solemnly, "After this machine sends you to this world, your world will be connected to this world. The connection between the two is an anchor. point."

"What's the use of this anchor?"

"Coordinates, positioning."

The old collector was concise and to the point.

Once connected, an anchor point is generated.

Once the destructive forces obtain this machine, they can pass through the anchor point and travel to other other worlds to join forces with the destructive forces in those worlds.

"Join forces? Are they going to form a 'grand alliance of villains from all over the world'?"

Cowboy Xia couldn't help but complain.
