Chapter 954: Everyone is in the Future
"Due to spacetime distortion, the data nodes on the Apocalypse have become completely offline."
Therefore, everything I get from it is outdated.
Generally speaking.
The system's explanations were all very reasonable and easy to understand, but Gu Heng could only grasp some of them. For example, the data nodes on the Apocalypse didn't contain much data, and "offline" meant that the content inside wasn't updated in real time...
Besides that, he still didn't understand why such an abstract concept as "spacetime distortion" was being brought into the mix.
"what do you mean?"
Gu Heng pressed on. “It seems that the Apocalypse has traveled back to the past from the future using some kind of time travel technology. I don’t understand the principle behind this technology yet, but it is precisely because of this action that the Apocalypse’s data nodes have gone completely offline.”
"what?!"
Gu Heng stared wide-eyed.
"Did the Apocalypse Ship travel from the future to my era?!"
Has technological civilization become so advanced that it can even manipulate "time" at will?
According to what Wu Zhao and Yue Ru told him, there are many concepts in the myriad worlds, and these different concepts constitute the bizarre and wonderful myriad worlds!
Behind these concepts are eternal and ever-present "concept gods".
The concept of a god can be considered the most powerful epochal deity in the universe! "Time" is also one of the concepts.
natural.
There is a corresponding concept of a god, known as the "Lord of Time"!
Time is firmly in the grasp of the Lord of Time; such power is not something one can simply acquire.
Gu Heng still remembers the ruins of the Mirror Moon Heaven Kingdom in the Epoch Cemetery.
That was a level ten civilization that participated in the "god-making" project, but in the end, the entire civilization perished silently. It's hard to say whether a higher being was behind it all...
For example, the gods of those eras themselves disapproved of the act of "creating gods".
This shows that the existence of gods is a powerful deterrent, and trying to fleece them is no easy feat.
Although the divine power of the concept god can be comprehended by all cultivators and granted divine authority, the divine power of the Lord of Time seems to have never been obtained by any civilization, whether cultivators or those who play with technology, whether human or alien.
In the past, the Buddhist civilization had a great monk who attained enlightenment and obtained the divine power and authority of the "Lord of Time".
According to records, that great monk could at most reverse time within a certain range by a few seconds, nothing more. But that alone made him the most powerful Buddhist monk in the Buddhist civilization!
Whether it's true or false, Gu Heng couldn't be sure.
Anyway, I just heard it from other people.
"Wait! If you put it that way, I do remember now..."
"System, the Apocalypse was brought by Zero, and Zero has six accomplices. Could they also be from the 'future'?"
Gu Heng frowned, feeling as if his mind was a jumbled mess.
"According to the database, that's correct."
Gu Xitong nodded. "But they're here to mess with me. What grudge do I have against people from the future?"
Gu Heng was puzzled, but he was now certain that he was probably missing some memories. First, there were the eight sages in the Zuxian civilization ruins; he had encountered three of them, and all three seemed to know him…
Now, while he's doing well in the lower realm of Origin, seven people from the future have deliberately traveled back to the "past" to get rid of him?
This is definitely unreasonable!
"I cannot explain this. The time you are in now is less than a hundred years different from the time when the Apocalypse returned to the 'past'."
"Compared to the lower-level source world you were in before, the difference is a very, very long time..."
"...You mean, I am currently in the 'future'?"
Gu Heng felt a chill in his heart.
As soon as the system confirmed his statement, a chill ran down my spine!
He time-traveled too?
Could it be that the trap set by that wicked woman from the magical civilization sent him to the "future" in terms of time, and to the Graveyard of Ages in terms of space?
"It's not easy to judge; the concept of spacetime in the Epoch Graveyard is very chaotic, but it's certain that you're in the future."
hiss~
It's over, it's over, it's over!
If I'm in the future, doesn't that mean a very long time has passed for Qin Yiyao?!
It's even possible that she won't live long enough to reach the future she's in now!
Gu Heng couldn't even imagine the impact it would have on him if his beautiful and delicate apprentice turned into a frail old woman when they met again. "System, I need it now..."
His words stopped abruptly.
Because Gu Xitong's eyes suddenly became utterly empty, her icy blue pupils were completely dull, as if they had lost their spirit.
What's up with her?
I was just about to ask him to take out the Apocalypse and start it up, then travel according to the spatial coordinates.
Gu Heng poked Gu Xitong's cheek, and then she said, "I still have control over the technological weapons on the Apocalypse. I just remotely activated an Annihilator Type III mech to investigate..."
Gu Xitong frowned, it was rare to see her show such a human expression.
He reluctantly withdrew his hand.
Waited for a while.
Gu Xitong's eyes returned to normal. "But that lower-dimensional source world also seems to be covered by some kind of force that affects time."
"If you leave the Source Realm and enter the Phenomenon Realm in a normal way, you will inevitably pass through an abnormal flow of time, so the people you are close to should all be in the 'future'."
These words left Gu Heng speechless.
"Can this still happen?"
"Ah."
"Phew, this whole ordeal was terrifying. If she really turns into some old woman, how will I ever face her?"
He breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon, just like before, Gu Heng sensed a strange coincidence.
A coincidence that seems suspicious at first glance!
If he can ascend from that lower-dimensional source world in a "normal" way, then he will eventually come to the "future".
He was tricked by a bad woman and sent to the Epoch Graveyard, which was a detour, but in the end, he still arrived in the future!
No matter what.
Gu Heng realized that he seemed unable to avoid arriving in the "future" in the end!
"Who exactly is behind this...?"
Gu Heng pondered deeply.
half an hour.
He still made the decision.
"System, let's postpone finding my apprentice for now. Let's follow your suggestion and go to the technological civilization first."
"Since your database is incomplete, let's find a way to upgrade it first, and then we can do other things later!"
Gu Heng made a decision. He would update his most useful system first!
