Chapter 68 The Lost History

The exploration of the fourth ring world was surprisingly simple. The civilization trying to ascend did not leave anything difficult to deal with except triggering a big explosion.

At least it is better than the third ring world. After the control center is rebuilt and the ecology here returns to normal, the fourth ring world will be a perfect ring world.

Although he gained a ring world, Li Wenyuan only had mixed emotions.

Now that the ring world looks like this, what will happen to other similar buildings left by humans?

Humans will definitely not build just one thing like Ring World. If the indigenous people taken in by other humans are also a group of sleeping dragons and phoenix chicks, then what he receives when he goes to recycle it may not be the bombed and shredded Ring World.

"...I hope there will be some peaceful natives in the future..." He could only forcefully comfort himself and start the most difficult process of repairing the third stage of the ring world.

"But speaking of it, the psychic natives here signed a contract with that 'End of Reincarnation', which directly caused their own civilization to self-destruct?"

Li Wenyuan recalled the explanation given by the chosen indigenous person he had taken in before. Although his civilization was destroyed due to the "End of Reincarnation", they also received huge help before the destruction.

According to legend, this is a gift from "the end of reincarnation" before interest is collected.

But when liquidation occurs, the more you have given before, the more you will receive back.

Even the population of an indigenous civilization can form a "distorted consciousness" that is not too weak.

So what will happen if the population grows by dozens or hundreds of times, and the level of civilization exceeds that of the indigenous people for several generations?

"...Among the idealistic civilizations in the galaxy, no one has signed a contract with the 'End of Reincarnation', right?" The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

The pursuit of progress is what every civilization will do, and "The End of Reincarnation" can obviously bring about progress within a certain period of time.

The signer may not know the consequences of this at all, or he may know it, but think he has a way to solve it, just like this indigenous civilization.

But if someone really signs it, then the galactic civilization may have to be prepared to face a group of more powerful "distorted consciousnesses", and even more terrifying virtual creatures that may be spawned.

After thinking for a while, Li Wenyuan decided to issue a notice to the Galaxy to clarify the possible harm caused by "The End of Reincarnation", at least to make the civilizations who want to sign carefully consider it.

He doesn't expect idealistic civilizations to listen to him, but sometimes it only takes a little doubt to make them give up this potentially extremely risky behavior.

So all the interstellar civilizations in the galaxy received a message from the "Guardians" soon after.

"...'The end of reincarnation'? This thing sounds very magical. Who is this stupid magician predicting the end of the galaxy?"

In the trading post of Corebo, while listening to the reports of his men, Braining casually criticized this kind of thing that sounded very unscientific.

He is a staunch materialist. Although psychic energy and virtual reality have been proven to exist, he is still not optimistic about it, let alone the mysterious-sounding "end of reincarnation".

When his men heard this, they held it in for a long time and then said angrily:

"This... this news came from the 'Guardian'. He broadcast it to the entire galaxy. Whether it is true or not has not yet been verified..."

But when he saw that Branin, who was very casual before, instantly straightened up with a serious face, nodded and praised:

"A great discovery. This is worrying about our future! Quick, send me an order to replace the advertising screen here with this message and broadcast it on a loop for a month!"

His expression looked very serious, as if he had actually seen the moment when "the end of reincarnation" arrived.

But that’s not what you just said...

Although this subordinate was slandering in his heart, he still looked flattering on the outside and accepted Braining's order with a bow and a nod.

After he left, Braining returned to his plain appearance and began to tap the table with his fingers.

"...a threat from the virtual realm? How many more threats like this are there in the galaxy, or even beyond the river?"

"Sure enough, strength is still needed..."



The idealistic civilization also received this message from the "Guardian".

Most civilizations are in an ambiguous state about this. After all, although the content is very scary, it still requires encountering the "end of reincarnation" in the virtual realm.

In fact, a large part of them don't even know that there are things in the virtual realm that can be signed into contracts, and they are still in the initial stages of using the virtual realm.

But a certain civilization that has made "significant achievements" in the virtual realm doesn't think so.

"The 'Guardian' has sent news that there is a terrifying thing in the virtual territory. It seems that it may be the existence that signed a contract with us. What do you think, let's discuss it?"

An elder of the large Dunkamu tribe projected the "Guardian" message on the conference table for everyone to see.

However, everyone had already seen this news, and their choices were almost overwhelmingly unanimous.

"...Whether it is true or false, we have already signed a contract, and this news now has no meaning." An elder shook his head and abstained from voting.

Another elder said: "Encountering difficulties and solving them is part of the way forward. Even if it does bring destruction, I think we can find a way before that."

After that, he voted in favor, saying that he thought it should continue.

"As the elders of the temple said, if destruction is unavoidable, then moving on is the best choice." Another elder voted in agreement.

As the process accelerated, more and more people voted in favor. Although some people chose to abstain, there were no opponents.

The last voter was a very young elder.

He was a person who stood out from the masses after the "Great Awakening Movement".

The psychic energy seemed to pay special attention to him, and it didn't take long for him to take up the position of elder. He was the youngest among the elders here.

His eyes swept across the people in the conference room, and then he said loudly:

"...To be honest, I have never understood why we need to mobilize troops and mobilize people for such a piece of news that we don't know whether it is true or false."

"Why? Just because he is a lost empire? Even if it is a lost empire, the news should be announced by the 'Watchers', not by a group of robots who cannot enter the virtual realm."

The elders looked at each other and didn't understand why he said these words for a while. It was just a vote and it would be done in a few minutes. Isn't this long speech a waste of everyone's time?

An elder could not help but remind: "Elder Gnosis, voting is just a habit that has been continued before we went to the stars. All events involving the entire civilization require voting. In fact, all of us know what the result will be, but

There is still a need to ensure the normal operation of the program.”

"So why? Do we have to be so cautious as long as it is a lost empire? Aren't they a group of outdated antiques? Given time, they will also be defeated by us!" The young elder still expressed deep dissatisfaction with this.

In the end, it was the great elder of the Denkamu tribe who sighed and said:

"The lost empires must have had a glorious history. You can think that they are not enterprising and depressed now, but you can't underestimate them or even insult them because of this."

"Sometimes, their loss is not even because they want to be so lost, but because they lost too much in the process of fighting against the galactic enemy."

"So that when they come back to their senses, they have forgotten who they are."

"Maybe we can beat them in the future, but we still need to respect them, both as opponents and as former defenders."

These words, which contained some profound meaning, shocked everyone present. One elder could not help but ask:

"Great Elder, where are you from..."

However, the great elder did not explain. He just shook his head and announced the end of the voting ceremony, asking everyone to return to their respective posts.

And Li Wenyuan, after all the control centers in the four-stage ring world were repaired and the connections were reestablished, he received the news that humans were left here.
