Chapter 1041 Observer
Chapter 1041 Observer
The air was quiet for a while.
The office was silent.
Xiao Qi looked at Chu Guang worriedly, asking him with his eyes whether he needed to call Heya and bring a few more psychologists.
However, Chu Guang shook his head, indicating that he didn’t need to notify the guards, and he could handle it himself.
It was not entirely out of confidence in his own strength, but mainly because he didn’t feel any obvious threat from the other party, or any obvious malicious motives.
Although his feelings were not necessarily accurate, they were still of some reference value.
After all, perception is actually the embodiment of “psychic energy”, and the connection established between the two parties at this moment might be a resonance field in some form.
Chu Guang didn’t know how this was done, and the other party seemed to be surprised at the connection established between them at this moment, but no matter what, being able to communicate was a good start.
Compared with force, he was better at using the manager’s method.
Besides, if it was really a problem that he couldn’t solve, no matter how many more people came…
About five minutes later, the voice in the dark floated into his ears again.
”The pen… uh, I didn’t take it, but I know how it disappeared and where it went.”
Chu Guang didn’t say anything, but waited for it to continue.
The voice paused for a moment, and then continued.
”This is related to the nature of the world you live in and your final fate. Although it is still too far away for you, it will come one day… The story may be a bit long, are you interested in listening?”
Chu Guang said.
”I would like to hear the details.”
”Then I’ll start from the beginning…”
The mysterious voice continued.
”A long, long time ago, before the universe was born, everything was in a state of absolute stillness. There was no increase or decrease in entropy… There was even no concept of time.”
”Until a certain moment, a tiny particle like dust vibrated, which triggered an avalanche-like chain reaction, finally breaking the eternal silence. Light appeared in the boundless chaos, and there were sounds, and many new things that did not exist in the world outside of time… We call this first universe the ‘primordial universe’, which is the beginning of everything.”
Chu Guang frowned slightly, not knowing how this guy got to the origin of the universe from his pen, but he continued to speak in accordance with his words.
”You are talking about… the Big Bang? I seem to have heard of it, but I don’t quite understand it.”
The voice in the dark neither confirmed nor denied, but continued in a calm tone.
”Everything has turned from eternal stillness to endless movement. Time has meaning from this moment on, and the primordial universe is also constantly expanding in the eternal increase of entropy… like a soap bubble that gets bigger and bigger.”
Chu Guang asked blankly.
”Soap bubbles?”
the voice in the dark said patiently.
”Yes, this is the easiest way to understand. If I don’t use the concepts you understand to give examples, you can’t imagine what the original universe was like… just like ants can never understand what the sea is, what’s the difference between the sea and the river in front of their homes, and what a manned spacecraft is.”
”In short, it’s an extremely huge bubble, its size can no longer be measured in light years. If your Milky Way is compared to a leaf, then it is the sum of all the leaves in the entire Milky Way… or even larger than that.”
That… is really amazing.
Chu Guang was stunned by the size of the world, but he didn’t have any more ideas.
If what this guy of unknown origin said was true, even the vast Milky Way was just a leaf in front of that huge order of magnitude, and the bacteria living on this leaf didn’t seem to need to worry about those distant things.
That kind of existence is too far away from human civilization.
It’s like a story from another world.
Even if a wildfire broke out in this forest, before the flames turned everything into ashes, that little time would be enough for the bacteria on the leaves to reproduce for several generations.
In this case,
as bacteria, they should first eat the leaves in front of them.
As if it could see what he was thinking, the mysterious voice continued in a leisurely tone.
”Your idea is correct. It is not the duty of snails or ants to maintain order in the forest. However… I want to talk about the origin of the void. If I don’t explain the whole story clearly, you won’t understand what the void is, how it came about, and where your pen went.”
”I agree with your point of view, please continue.” Chu Guang looked at him and said.
The mysterious voice seemed to have intended to do this, and continued at a slow pace.
”The ‘primordial universe’ has existed for a very long time, and there is no reliable clue to prove whether there was any civilization in that universe. Even I, who have also existed for a long time and explored many universes, have not found any traces of civilization left in that universe in the endless universe. They may not have existed in the beginning, or they may have existed and turned into something else.”
”But our exploration is not without results. Through traceable clues, we know that the primordial universe gave birth to three ‘consciousnesses’ while nurturing matter. And they are the masters of the void – the primordial light, the indescribable fog, and the chaotic darkness.”
This guy’s painting style gradually became strange, and the concepts he described far exceeded human civilization’s understanding of the material world.
Chu Guang couldn’t help asking.
”What is that thing?”
The voice in the dark did not keep him in suspense and answered his question happily.
”Light is the origin of everything, fog is the unpredictable cause and effect, and darkness is the end of the cosmic cycle… They are both consciousness and rules, and together they form the cornerstone of the void.”
”Various clues indicate that the birth of consciousness accelerated the collapse of the primordial universe. When that huge soap bubble burst with a ‘bang’, it exploded into countless smaller soap bubbles, and there were countless ‘new universes after that’.”
”And your Milky Way, and even the collection of all other galaxies outside the Milky Way and within the horizon, belongs to one of those endless bubbles.”
”As for the void, it is the gap between bubbles, which is the ‘wall’ you have realized through digging graves.”
”There are three consciousnesses born in the primordial universe, as well as new consciousnesses they have nurtured over the long years, and the corpses of countless dead universes.”
Chu Guang stared at it in a daze, and it took him a long time to digest this huge amount of information.
The universe is an endless bubble…
And the void is the corpse of the dead universe… including the corpse of the original universe that failed to give birth to a new universe?
In the face of this incredible information, the matter of the pen seems no longer important.
Unable to suppress his curiosity, Chu Guang couldn’t wait to say.
”This is different from what we learned from the pioneer civilization… The universe they described is a nested structure.”
Of course.
He did not agree with this nested structure.
In contrast, he agreed more with the concept of parallel universes. Different universes exist independently of each other, just like two parallel lines.
The voice in the dark said with a smile.
”This is normal. The same apple will inevitably have different understandings in different people’s hands. The child called ‘pioneer’ you mentioned only explained the ‘sea’ they saw themselves. Just like you use the dimension theory to explain the membrane of the universe, you explain the membrane of the universe as a vibrating plane in eleven dimensions. And they use the creator theory to explain the relationship between the consciousness in the void and the universe.”
After a pause, it continued.
”They are smart, but not smart enough. They confuse the concepts of dimension and membrane, and think that the universe is a nested nesting doll. The consciousness of one existence must be created and enveloped by another consciousness that existed earlier. The three consciousnesses born in the original universe are the creators of the universe they are in, and the omnipotent rulers… This is actually inaccurate.”
Chu Guang stared at the eyes that were becoming clearer and clearer at that time. While being shocked by this amazing reality, he suddenly realized another problem.
”In other words… the place where the pioneer civilization went was not actually the universe of the creator?”
The sight in the dark brought a touch of praise.
”You are very smart and have a high level of understanding. You are worthy of being the continuation of that person… Although you can hardly see his shadow on you.”
Chu Guang was stunned and said, “Whose shadow?”
”An old friend I once knew. For you, it was probably a long, long time ago… Don’t worry, it’s not an important thing for you.”
The voice in the dark did not answer directly, but just lightly lifted the topic and continued the previous topic.
”To answer your previous question, I think there are two interpretations of whether those ‘pioneers’ you mentioned actually went to the universe of the Creator. As I said before, their understanding is just not accurate enough, but it does not mean it is wrong.”
Chu Guang: “…What do you mean?”
The voice in the dark continued.
”It depends on your understanding of the Creator, or the ultimate pursuit. The Creator they understand is the origin of everything, while the Creator you understand… I guess it probably refers to the existence that created some specific things. If you think about it a little, you will realize that these two Creators are actually different in nature.”
When Chu Guang heard this, he finally realized the problem.
From the perspective of the “pioneer civilization”, the “Creator” understood by the group of spiritualists is the origin of consciousness, and this corresponds to the three major consciousnesses born in the original universe from the beginning.
They established contact with one or all of the three major consciousnesses, completed some kind of transaction, or even signed a contract, and finally went to the world where they were –
and that is the void outside the cosmic membrane!
However, the Creator understood by human civilization is not like this.
Because its own development process focuses more on the exploration of matter, human civilization’s understanding of the Creator is more concentrated on the level of “things” rather than “creation” with subjective colors.
And these “things” are not created by the so-called three major consciousnesses, but are born in the primordial universe. They are the infinite possibilities generated by the collision and entanglement of countless particles!
No wonder…
the information left by the pioneer civilization has told them more than once that they are different from each other.
The fact is really so. Human civilization and pioneer civilization are not on the same track from the most basic cognition!
Chu Guang, who realized this, was shocked.
Good guy…
After all this time, the pioneer civilization did not go to another higher universe, but plunged into the void!
Dr. Qiu Shiye probably went there – the gap between the universe and the universe!
The pioneer civilization warned them, the younger generation, to be careful of the things on the wall, but these guys obviously did not realize that the place they went to was actually on the wall –
including the creator they understood, which was also the things on the wall!
All the clues were connected together, and Chu Guang gradually understood everything.
After all this time, the perforator is not drilling light from the Creator Universe, but digging the corner of the void!
And the giant lizard of death, I think, is an existence in the void…
”…It seems that you have gradually understood the nature of the ‘perforator’, and now I want to tell you about the membrane of the universe, which is what you really pierced.”
The voice in the dark continued with a smile in a gentle tone.
”Do you remember the analogy I made before? I compared the universe to a soap bubble.”
”I still remember,” Chu Guang said cautiously, “So you mean… the membrane of the universe is the protective layer of the universe?”
The voice in the dark continued.
”It can be understood that the membrane in this conceptual sense is indeed related to the stability of the universe. However, a more accurate explanation is actually… the membrane of the universe is the universe itself. And the three-dimensional world you can see is actually the projection of the eleven-dimensional ‘membrane’ on the three-dimensional ‘interface’.”
”Once you understand the concept of projection, you will understand why this universe is filled with a lot of things that you can’t see or touch. The eleven-dimensional membrane can be projected onto the three-dimensional interface, and naturally it can also be projected onto the 0, 1, 2-dimensional or 4-dimensional, 5-dimensional and other interfaces…”
”Based on this principle, you can think that the universe is composed of projections of countless different dimensions, or you can think that the membrane at the top of the latitude is the body of the universe.”
”As for the existence in the void…that is, things outside the bubbles, under normal circumstances, they cannot directly touch the bubbles, let alone enter the bubbles.”
”However, they also have their own ways, such as using psychic abilities – what you call resonance fields, to establish connections with the ‘consciousness’ living in the bubble, bewitching them, or making deals with them, and using the latter’s power to project themselves onto a certain interface in the bubble… just like what you did before.”
Chu Guang swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously.
”In other words… our actions have actually shaken the foundation of the universe?”
A hearty laugh came from somewhere, followed by a soft whisper.
”Don’t think too highly of yourself. You have only carefully picked up a grain of sand from the desert, and you cannot change the ecological environment of the entire desert. And those projections that invaded your world, as you saw, can actually be eliminated. Some smart natives even deliberately tricked the beings in the void to come down, and then hunted them to obtain some power that you don’t understand yet.”
Chu Guang asked immediately.
”What is that power?”
”Didn’t you notice the changes in your body? But it doesn’t matter, you will notice it soon. I don’t need to explain this to you. You have your own physical examination doctor.”
The voice in the dark smiled and continued.
”In short, the bubble that envelops your world is much more powerful than you think, otherwise you would not exist in this universe. Not to mention far away, just this galaxy under your feet has been torn apart by countless civilizations, but it was still fine until those civilizations each went to the end of their destiny.”
”Not to mention a hole that is invisible to the naked eye, even a hole on the scale of the Milky Way will gradually heal with the passage of time… and your pen is likely to have been moved to fill this hole.”
”So I sincerely suggest that you take it easy at your doorstep, or change to a more massive celestial body that is a little further away for research. Gravity is a good thing, and projections in any dimension cannot escape its constraints.”
”Of course, if you create a stellar-scale hole, the trouble that will be released will be no joke. It is possible that a few planets will disappear along the gravity surface.”
When it came to this, the laughter suddenly took on a hint of loneliness, as if it was said with regret.
”But then again, even if the membrane of the universe is stronger than you think, I must admit that the birth of civilization will accelerate the heat death of the universe. Just as the birth of the three major consciousnesses accelerated the decline of the original universe, your birth will also accelerate the heat death of the universe under your feet… even if you can hardly see the changes in your life span.”
”In the end, all new universes will be like the original universe, split into smaller bubbles in explosions again and again, or reach the end of their lives in eternal entropy increase, and finally merge into the void.”
This cruel fate seems to have something in common with the rise and fall of the human race.
Chu Guang couldn’t help but be a little dazed when he heard it.
But compared to the fate of the universe, what he cared more about was who this guy was?
Why did it know so many things? !
And-
it seemed to know the first generation manager of Shelter No. 404!
It was unbelievable that a high-level being with a perspective high enough to overlook the entire forest would actually pay attention to the fate of a certain bacterium on a certain leaf…
Thanks to it, he knew a lot of things that he might not know in his entire life.
However, the confusion in his heart did not decrease, but became more.
After a moment of silence, Chu Guang asked the question he wanted to ask from the beginning.
”Who are you?”
As if he had expected him to ask this question, the mysterious voice answered in a gentle tone.
”Of course I am also a being in the void… and I have existed beside you for a long, long time.”
”You can call me the Observer.”
