Chapter 279: Travelers in the Milky Way

Li Wenyuan read a lot of encrypted memories from the brain tissue of a certain native psionic species.

Memory encryption was not a rare technique. Even in the Milky Way, many civilizations had their own methods of memory encryption.

After all, this was the interstellar era, and there were many ways to retrieve the memories of a corpse.

Many important people who were engaged in critical work basically had to undergo encryption surgery. Sometimes, even they themselves did not realize that a certain part of their memories had been encrypted.

The memories that Li Wenyuan read were similar. The tissues they were in did not show any signs of activation, and the lifeforms signals would subconsciously bypass this place.

If it was described in terms of lifeforms behavior, it meant that the owner of this memory would not realize that his memory had been encrypted.

The process of deciphering these memories wasn’t difficult, but Li Wenyuan, who habitually attributed all abnormalities to humans, finally realized that this place was no longer the Milky Way.

This encryption method was not a human method. To Li Wenyuan’s surprise, this memory was encrypted using genetic technology, and it was the most basic one. It was not an encryption method that involved psionic.

It was a stark difference from the high concentration of psionic in the galaxy, and he had thought that psionic technology was basically the world here.

After deciphering, the secrets hidden in the brain tissue genes were also converted into corresponding data and finally processed into images.

Compared to words, images had a better ability to express, which was perhaps what the civilization that sealed the memory hoped for the psionic lifeforms to understand.

In the picture was an ordinary oval galaxy.

Observers had recorded everything from even further away. At that time, the oval galaxy was like the Milky Way. Other than the lack of a hyperspace channel, it had formed habitable planets in suitable places.

At this moment, there was no high concentration of psionic, nor was there a society of mutual deception. There was only the budding of life.

However, the cycle of lifeforms evolution would be extremely long, and the development of civilization also needed to be gradual. Perhaps until the stars fell, there would be no communication between the civilizations here.

Perhaps having predicted the constraints of light speed on life, the scribes attempted to solve the superluminal problem for the civilizations of this galaxy, just like humans in the past.

They seemed to be very skilled in psionic and could use this talent to shuttle between the void realms. Therefore, they wanted to let all the lives in the entire galaxy have the same talent as them.

The power of the void realm was guided into the real universe by them and gradually permeated the galaxy. Although the void realm still collected psionic, the average concentration of psionic power here was still steadily rising.

In the long run, the species here would gradually possess great potential in psionic and travel the galaxy with the ubiquitous void realm. The shackles of light speed would no longer exist.

The recording was nearing its end. The recorder seemed to think that they had completed their great cause. After leaving behind a sentence that sounded like a divine stick, he sealed this memory into the genes of every life here.

Li Wenyuan also saw the true appearance of the scribes. It was a huge luminous object in the true sense. It looked like a nebula observed through an astronomical telescope, but it was brighter.

They were in between reality and illusion, but they were a quarter of the size of this oval galaxy. It looked as if they could destroy everything in their way just by their size, but the stars easily passed through the seemingly tangible glowing parts without being affected.

When the glowing object passed by the oval galaxy, it split apart like a piece of cotton being torn apart and fell into the oval galaxy.

Despite its massive size, it had almost no mass. During the fall, it was constantly torn apart and absorbed by the planet’s gravity before disappearing without a trace. It seemed to have fused with the planets of this galaxy, and every lifeform born on these planets would have this encrypted memory.

And this luminous object continued to wander in the universe, heading toward the unknown.

The words they left behind were also the end of the memory. The content was very mysterious, but as long as one had a certain level of genetic technology, one could understand it.

It was written directly using gene fragments as words and gene combinations with specific functions as a comparison table. Even some native civilizations could interpret the words:

[ Heaven and earth, god and spirit, stars and stars, are all under our control. ]

[ At this point, a glimpse of the future is not impossible. ]

[ The journey is not over yet. We will continue to search for the truth of the world and leave behind the path we have taken. ]

[ Successors, can you go beyond the galaxy and witness the moment of revelation with us? ]

Li Wenyuan carefully created a new file for this mysterious luminous object that was suspected to be at least at the level of a galaxy to collect and classify relevant information.

Considering that the other party seemed to be wandering in the universe on an unknown journey, he named this file Traveler, which referred to this mysterious luminous object in the same era.

Although he was a fraud, Li Wenyuan understood why the huge glowing body that seemed to be an intellectual lifeform would use such a simple genetic method to preserve this memory.

The encryption was to prevent it from being lost in the process of lifeforms evolution. Only the most basic genetic methods were used to ensure that even if the level of civilization was very low, they could still interpret this memory.

Judging from the information he knew so far, this luminous object was the same as what humans had done in the past: Guide life and walk together in the future.

The method they used was also very strange. It was difficult to say what field of technology it belonged to.

However, it was clear that things had developed unexpectedly, just like how no one could predict the unexpected.

The life of this galaxy had indeed gradually revealed their psionic ability potential due to the surge in psionic density, which helped them understand the world faster, but also formed a completely different course of civilization development.

Because the average concentration of psionic was too high, under the survival of the fittest, all lifeforms that could not grasp psionic power were eliminated at a terrifying speed.

In ancient times, those who were able to use psionic power and those who were unable to use psionic power would have been one-sided massacres. There would have been no chance of competition at all.

Every planet that had given birth to life had produced powerful psionic lifeforms that stood unshakably at the top of the food chain in a very short period of time.

They wouldn’t even be destroyed in an ordinary ecological disaster. Meteorites that could cause mass extinction would be shattered by them in space.

Although psionic had allowed them to gain wisdom early on and form the embryonic form of civilization in the rare group life, the ethos of all civilizations was to advocate individual elitism and the supremacy of the strong.

And the psionic champions of those civilizations were indeed capable of doing that. They did not need politics or schemes and could destroy a civilization with just their strength.

In this extremely rapid civilization change and life evolution, there would only be one result – the competition of civilizations would become the competition of certain individuals.

As long as one was strong enough, all the problems, including resources, would no longer exist.

Everyone worked hard to become stronger, relying on whatever means they could. Then, they quickly discovered that killing and robbing made them stronger in a shorter time.

Evolution once again showed its cruelty at this stage. The people who followed the rules gathered together for warmth, but the evil person could easily beat them up.

The cruel sprout had already been buried in all the life genes in this galaxy..
