Chapter 308: The Wheel of History

Li Wenyuan still remembered that the Variant Terminal that he had discovered in the lower three spiral arms had clearly introduced the functions of its planetary machine.

The Weapon of Destruction was the other, the Spectator was the other, and the Creator could also be the other. Everything depended on the creator’s settings in the code.

Unlike the existing Entertainment Variant Terminal that had been modified, there might have been such a real Variant Terminal in the Spiral Galaxy Alpha. Its creator’s function for it might be simply to cultivate a perfect civilization.

At this stage, the Variant Terminal basically did not communicate with the outside world, and the related buildings were mostly passive. This was also the earliest Chronicler ruins discovered by the Utes.

However, something happened to the Variant Terminal later, and it gradually went on the opposite path of its intended purpose.

And the source of this change… Li Wenyuan roughly calculated the time and felt that the humans had not run away.

In the past, when humans came to this galaxy, they discovered a new Al Planet. Then, they slightly modified the program of the Variant Terminal, making the Variant Terminal become the Chronicler.

However, the Chronicler’s final outcome was an extremely sudden and mysterious demise, leaving no trace behind.

Li Wenyuan felt that this was most likely related to the civilization that created the Variant Terminal, and the Skywalker Empire, which was the last link in the Chronicler’s history, was probably just a fuse.

Only that mysterious civilization could so easily destroy a pinnacle civilization that stood at the top of the galaxy because it was their creation.

And the Heavenly Chasm that isolated the galaxy was probably the work of that civilization.

“Why would such a powerful civilization install Observation Terminal everywhere? They even came up with a strange planetary machine like the Variant Terminal. Isn’t that what the Chronicler wanted to see?”

His doubts increased as he discovered more and more, and he was more and more certain that there was information he needed on the other side of the Heavenly Chasm.

Whether it was human beings, the Chroniclers, the Skywalker Empire, or even the mysterious civilization that built the Observation Terminal, he could find the answer there.

The only problem now was to cross the 20,000 light-years Heavenly Chasm.

In theory, whether it was a distance of one light-year or a distance of 100 million light-years, the warp drive could reach it instantly.

The principle it used was to directly reconstruct the space-time continuity of the space in which it was located. From the quantum level, it directly turned the surroundings into the destination, thereby achieving instant movement.

All that was needed was accurate data on the various indicators of the destination space, as well as a huge amount of energy to reconstruct space-time.

Normally, the sentry formation was enough to meet the needs of the warp drive for coordinates. Even if it was not enough, he could borrow the observation stations of other civilizations to determine the coordinates.

But this time, the distance of the Heavenly Chasm was too far. When the sentry formation tried to detect the edge of the Heavenly Chasm, the scanning data was already very unstable and could not be used as the coordinates needed for the warp. Moreover, the Observation Terminal that could directly monitor the entire galaxy was on the other side of the Heavenly Chasm.

However, Li Wenyuan knew that even if he didn’t need to warp, he could still find a way to get there.

“The modified Variant Terminal is obviously not the Chronicler. It is too new, more like it appeared a long time after humans left.

“If the true Chronicler still remains, it’s most likely on the other side of the Heavenly Chasm.”

“The transformation of this Variant Terminal here is rather suspicious. It’s certain that it was modified by the civilization on the other side. In that case, they have a way to come over…”

He had also wondered if the civilization there had mastered the technology of warp drive or void realm travel to cross the Heavenly Chasm. After all, they had the help of the Observation Terminal and did not have to worry about coordinates at all.

However, after many tests, Li Wenyuan confirmed that the civilization over there could not do these things.

The first was the phenomenon that was bound to occur when warp drives were used – the weakening of the dimensional structure was not found in this galaxy.

Theoretically speaking, the more the warp drive was used, the weaker the space-time structure would be, the easier it would be to activate the next time, and the less energy needed.

However, there were no such signs in this galaxy. It was possible that the warp drive had not been used here during the Chronicler era. The only traces were formed after Li Wenyuan’s arrival.

In addition, the void realm of this galaxy was much smaller than the void realm of the Elliptical Galaxy Alpha, even smaller than the void realm of the Milky Way. However, there was no trace of external interference. It was still in an extremely primitive stage.

This meant that the lifeforms here basically did not have psionic ability potential, or only a few of them had been born. They had only dabbled in the use of the void realm and were far from being able to move with the void realm.

Li Wenyuan had thought of using the void realm to move, but he was just a robot and was incompatible with the void realm.

Normally, he could perform Void Realm Advancement to enjoy the scenery, but he couldn’t use the void realm to teleport as he wished.

The artificial forms of Chosen One under his command were still studying the corresponding relationship between the void realm and the real world, so he could not go to the other side for the time being.

After some thought, he decided to use a safer method, which was the method used by the upper three spiral arms civilization to come to the lower three spiral arms civilization.

And he felt that based on the overall level of civilization in this galaxy, this method was most likely wormhole travel. Even if it wasn’t, it was a method of elimination.

Therefore, he began to focus on verifying all the wormholes in the lower three spiral arms and found the target as expected.

It was an ordinary galaxy near the Variant Terminal, with a mediocre galaxy type and desolate planets on the streets. There didn’t seem to be anything worth paying attention to.

But the fact that galaxies themselves were ordinary did not mean that everything in galaxies was ordinary.

Li Wenyuan would discover that apart from a wormhole near the galaxy, there were also a large number of hyperspace fragments.

It had once seemed to be a hyperspace node from which numerous hyperspace channels extended, and he had found evidence of that.

a rectangular monument floating in space, orbiting around a planet. The alloy surface of the monument was engraved with the following words in human language:

[Spiral Galaxy Alpha Interplanetary Passage Engineering Monument]

[Commemorate our contribution to the infrastructure of the universe.]

[1 think we can at least use it until the end of the universe this time!—Dean of Engineering]

“It’s not ‘XX was here’ anymore?”Li Wenyuan sighed. After confirming that the obelisk was purely a memorial building, he turned his attention to another noteworthy thing at the edge of the galaxy.

It was a wormhole that looked rather stable.

He had previously probed the interior of the wormhole. After the probe wave traveled a certain distance, it confirmed that the wormhole was indeed leading to the upper three spiral arms.

He was already prepared to go in and see what kind of interstellar society was on the other side of the Heavenly Chasm.

However, in a place he hadn’t found, near the exit of the wormhole, there was a group of people who were frantically plotting how to get rid of him.

“That civilization had discovered the passageway! Damn it, how did he manage to pick out the target from the galaxy and wormhole in such a short time?” “There are a lot of hyperspace fragments near the wormhole. That civilization might have noticed it because of that. I told you not to open the tunnel in that place!”

“But… Without the help of those hyperspace fragments that can affect the stability of space, we wouldn’t have been able to open up this passageway so easily…”

These people were all arguing, but they were all from the influential families of the Skywalker Empire. Usually, the appearance of any one of these people would cause a commotion among the citizens of the empire. However, at this moment, they were making a fool of themselves to achieve their goals.

“I don’t care! Destroy the passageway quickly! At most, he would stop appreciating the struggles of those wild beasts. He would first keep the secret here.”

A certain someone’s suggestion garnered the approval of most people. However, just as they were about to implement the plan, someone suddenly asked, “Do any of you know how to destroy the wormhole?”

This sentence was like an autumn wind, instantly freezing everyone present.

“If I remember correctly, the last time someone accidentally short-circuited the database while drinking tea, we lost a lot of technology…”

These people looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Finally, one of them said, “Don’t worry, don’t we have that Universal Treasury? Everything we have was taken from it, so 1 think it will be not stingy this time, right?”

Therefore, some of them went to the place known as the Universal Treasury to find a way to destroy the wormhole.

And there was a familiar, but very dilapidated mechanical planet.

Or rather, an Al Planet..
