Giant of Light: I am the Old Ones

Chapter 494: Star Extinction and Conjectures about the Evolution of Light
Amanda stayed in the small town of Louisiana for less than five days.

There is not much time until Gatan wakes up, and this is his last vacation.

During these times, he let go of all the pressure in his mind, just gathering with a few familiar family and friends, watching the newly built town become more and more prosperous, and the population was also booming.

Many families choose to have a child after they settle down in their residences. Only when the population of the town increases can it compete with the surrounding towns for more resources in the future.

The town had a habit of naming children without parents Amanda. When Dagon was defeated nearly three years ago, many people died and many orphans were adopted.For those who have not yet been given a name, there are also some who use the name Amanda.

Maybe one day, if you call Amanda in this town, many people will look back.

Amanda is leaving for the academy headquarters in Washington DC.

Omega has not been idle in the past few days. In front of Xiao Nai in the Giant Cemetery, he finally confirmed why Lipia is so convinced that the power of the Star of Light can defeat Gatan, who possesses the supreme darkness.

The reason is also very simple, anyway.

Return the darkness held by Gatan to its original owner.

The three pillar gods are Naiya, Shub and Yog. Naiya is the direct descendant of Azathoth, but Shub and Yog are actually Naiya's nephews.

Nia's siblings are the Nameless Mist and the Supreme Darkness, and Nia herself is the Crouching Chaos.

The nameless fog was born out of the door, which is Yug.The supreme darkness gave birth to the Mother Goddess of Earth, also known as Shub.

In the Greek mythology, after the birth of the Nameless Fog and the Supreme Darkness, they were just background boards and never appeared again.Many people will directly refer to their descendants, thinking that Shabu is the darkness, and Yogg is the nameless fog.This is actually wrong.

Among them, the Supreme Darkness does not know why some power resides on the Gatan of this world, and has raised an old ruler to the level of an outer god, so that his father Cthulhu has withdrawn, and only the link is kept Even with Krasin, the dreamland clone, Gatan was still the last one to wake up.

Even a big alarm clock is needed to call people in person.

So we only need to return the darkness to the Supreme Darkness, and then the remaining Gatan will be at the level of a Dark Demon Kingmon, which Orb can handle in the original.

Listening to Lipia's theory, Amanda even felt that there must be something wrong, how could it be so simple?
However, for the specific method of returning the darkness, Lipia needs to communicate with the engineers of the academy after arriving at the academy to get a result.

After arriving at the academy, Amanda was directly invited to the underground research institute.

Amanda was still a little dazed when she saw the star orbit that was still running stably. This model orbit reveals the laws of the universe. Now the hellish magma-red star is so far away from the earth, far away in Hyde. It will arrive on earth in more than 100 days.

Dean Harker and Engineer Alexander were waiting for them.

This is the first time Amanda has seen the huge steel door, or the shell of the coffin. It is said that the body of Harker's best friend is inside, and the God-killing sword that killed the god Harun of Kyriarod is there. on top of that corpse.

"We all know that there are still 160 days before the darkness awakens. If a few Byakhi appear in two days, the accuracy of this time point will become increasingly unquestionable."

Huck tapped his cane and continued: "Combined with what you said about the yellow clothes, there is also a piece of information that can be speculated. When the old days or the outer gods are sleeping, their thoughts may form self-awareness and clarify Know who you are, but have reason.”

Omega felt like sneezing inexplicably, but he had no respiratory organs, so he had to throw away those thoughts and concentrate on Lipia's computer calculation data.

There is no supercomputer in this world. In order to verify some data, Lipia can only expand Omega's thinking and use it as a super brain.

This was the first time that Omega realized that he had this effect.

And little Amanda has been trying to pull Lipia's pants after hearing about it, and let him use Omega to make some computer games.Playing Bloodborne Curse in God's Son's Yanan all day long will get a little tiresome.

Anyway, Omega is already a resource network disk, and multiple game functions should not be a big problem.

Back to reality, Amanda had never thought that these old gods and alien gods would be conscious. Don't they all care about other things or even other gods?
"Come on, the CD of the God-killing Sword is ready. I can pull it out again when the time comes. I hope it can help you."

Huck opened the steel door, and after going through a rigorous authentication far beyond human technology, he brought Amanda to the inside of the coffin.

A charred corpse was lying casually on a white platform of unknown material. The skin all over the body had dissolved, and the muscle texture and capillaries were burned, melted and stuck together until they dried up.Occasionally, there are some ember-like dark red firelight flowing under this completely dead body, but it is only a flash in the pan, making people wonder if it is dazzling.

The spiral sword was inserted in the center of the corpse's chest. You could vaguely see an extremely fine black ring mark in the area near where the sword was inserted, which remained even if the skin melted.

"I don't know if this sword can kill the darkness on Gatan. It's a bit uncertain."

Huck slowly walked up to the corpse, held a hand, and said: "Maybe I won't be able to resurrect you after I die. This may be the last world I experience. But that guy Alexander is just like you. He is an immortal, and he can carry the obsession of resurrecting you to the end of the world without turning into a living corpse."

Amanda has been able to determine that the power attached to this spiral sword comes from the "Dark Souls" series. Maybe this close friend of Huck is also a time traveler like herself.

Alexander didn't seem to have much respect for the corpse. He sat carelessly under the white table and said, "Let me tell you a story."

At the end of the 1893th century in a certain world, probably in [-], using steam core technology and the help of an outsider mayor, human civilization in the industrial age successfully survived on an earth that suddenly entered the Ice Age.

But then astronomers discovered an even more terrifying fact: this ice age would not end.

Because in 50 years, the sun will go out.

The outsider once promised to return in 50 years to solve the crisis, but he did not come back after 50 years.In other words, people lost contact with the outsider about two years after he left.

Amanda sensed that key word, and the sun went out.

The disaster that lingers in the Showa worldview has happened at least twice.One time gave birth to the Amperas, and the other led to the evolution of Ultraman.

Even the Absolut people in other universes have encountered this crisis.

"Let me come out, anyway, they should already know me." Lipia said lightly, he got some supplements in Amanda's body and appeared in reality, "This kind of natural disaster has never happened in our universe, We are all manually clearing stars of problematic civilizations, destroying them all within two hundred light years.”

Okay, I know you are a higher civilization and don’t want Versailles.

Alexander went on to tell the story:
So after the sun goes out, no matter how advanced our steam technology is, it will not help.Only the people in one city had time to board the spacecraft of an alien civilization that came to the rescue. Everyone else, especially the last two generations who gradually developed over the past 50 years, died.

Huck followed the alien spacecraft and wandered outside. Alexander was not rescued because the engineering laboratory and the city were not in the same place. After freezing to death, he found that he had come back to life and became an immortal.

He walked on the completely frozen planet. Looking around, he saw the same kind of people who were frozen into ice sculptures. In the sky, the sun was too dim to bring daylight and would be completely swallowed up at any time.

Until a sword burning with flames cut through time and space, and a scarred novelist took Alexander away and brought him to the outsider mayor who had been swallowed by the flames and turned into the King of Epilepsy.

The novelist experienced a battle not long ago and used his last strength to extinguish the epileptic fire. The flaming sword in his hand turned into a spiral sword to seal the king of epileptic fire.

It didn't take long for the novelist's enemy to arrive. He also had a sword of stars and miracles and a book of omniscience and omnipotence to use in battle. He sent Alexander and the sealed body away, and left Alexander a silver book engraved with dragons. A book about the story of a knight riding a dragon to fight.

Alexander didn't know how to describe Amanda's curious novelist's enemy, but it felt strange, not dangerous, but delusional.

It is a force that turns all stories into falsehoods, not just the stories created by people, but even people, society, civilization, and even everything that has happened in the universe into false and meaningless existences.

The last scene Alexander saw was the story of the false existence that was erasing their destroyed planet. If that existence succeeded, then everything that happened on their homeland would be nothingness that never existed.

But judging from the fact that both he and Huck were still alive, the novelist should have won that battle.

"Upper narrator?" Lipia judged the novelist priest and looked at Amanda, "Touma Kamiyama?"

"It should be Him, the one who created the new world, Shen Shan Fei Yu Zhen." Amanda covered her forehead, "The enemy who can force Fei Yu Zhen with the Ten Sacred Blades and the Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence to that level is wrong. That's wrong, that's not what we should be thinking about. Alexander, give us the core of the story you want to tell."

Alexander nodded, took out a comic from the tool bag he carried with him, and turned to the page inside, which was the scene of the plasma spark tower.

"The giant of light, or Ultraman, also had to build a technology called the plasma spark tower because the sun was extinguished, and evolved into a superman himself, right?"

Amanda nodded, the connection was too coincidental.

"Could it be a limitation of those who create cultural works? Because the upper-level narrators of these cultural works are only at the level of planetary civilization, so they will think that if something goes wrong with the star, it will be a serious disaster." Hahahaha Laughing, it seems that I feel like I am a character written by another person, but I am not decadent.

Amanda kept thinking about it, even in "The Wandering Earth" and even the "XEELEE" series that were rarely broadcast in China at that time, there were stories about stars going wrong in both the East and the West. In the "XEELEE" series, stars are even the food and residence of the dark matter life photon bird. This bird is the mortal enemy of all normal life in the universe, causing stars to enter the end of their lives early, and even accompanying the demise of the entire universe.

So much so that the highest civilization in that universe had to build a huge ring and escape to other universes, and eventually the universe was completely destroyed.

"It's not a coincidence, it's a grand unified convergence theory."

Lipia said the name of this theory again, "Only civilizations that successfully overcome the disaster of star extinction are qualified to develop further. But in our universe, the Star of Light is one of the highest powers. We send celestial weapons to destroy stars. For For those nearby civilizations, it is also a test. Only those who survive are eligible to live."

Alexander sneered: "Hey, so you have reached the level where you can replace the universe to exercise this kind of power. I'm really envious."

Lipia was not angry at all and explained: "We have more serious problems to deal with. Cleaning up the problematic civilizations that are still weak is the most effective way. There is no need to wait until they cause trouble. However, then It’s the thought of a star of light that has not yet come into contact with humans. I may be different, but I still have that kind of thinking inertia, I’m sorry.”

Huck shouted: "Okay, okay, our focus today is the issue of star extinction. If this disaster forces the civilization on the planet to do something, then we can further explore the ultimate purpose of this disaster. Let's assume this This kind of disaster occurs purely naturally and is not influenced by human will. So there are only three effective solutions at present, running away, bunkering and evolution."

Let’s not talk about running away. If you have a problem, I will run to the next young star system, or simply become a starship civilization. What can you do to me?Whether it is a low-level civilization wandering the earth or a high-level civilization in the XEELEE universe, Run is one of the effective ways to solve problems.

The second is the bunker. According to Hacker, there is a world of painterly dimensions that protects a small number of people from surviving after the sun or the fire goes out.However, there are too few people who can be saved and the cultural technology that can be inherited in this way.

The last step is evolution. Whether it is the Absolutes, Ultraman, or even the Ampera who only managed to survive one person, the result is the birth of the ultimate life form.

So could it be that the reason for such a disaster in the universe is to promote the development of civilization to the birth of the ultimate life form!
Amanda was still thinking, and suddenly looked up at Lipia and asked loudly:
"Lipia, you must tell me how the star of light in your universe developed!"

"There is no record in our records of evolution caused by the extinction of stars. No, wait, the absence of records does not mean that it has not happened."

Lipia's expression suddenly became confused, "I need some time to think."
