Chapter 434: The Great Ascension
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The ‘Ring of Time’ appeared in front of Li Wenyuan again, and the meeting with the ‘Professor’ seemed like a dream. When he returned to his senses, he had already woken up. Only the trance and disappointment of recalling the dream remained.
At that moment, he was still in the ‘event horizon.’ Other than the light belt representing the ‘Ring of Time,’ there was only nothingness.
Li Wenyuan was skeptical about whether the ‘event horizon’ still belonged to the ‘universe,’ but that anti-gravity spaceship specially used to enter the Black Hole did not carry a ‘Reality Penetrometer.’
If he could, he would definitely open the penetrometer there and take a good look at the ‘data’ of that place.
“However, I really miss the perception of a ‘lifeform’…It’s completely different from this digitized consciousness. No wonder some civilizations ultimately give up on the choice of ‘synthetic evolution’ even though they could clearly take that path and social philosophy can also understand this step…” Lifeform organisms might not be efficient enough, but for civilizations that could reach that stage, a small difference in efficiency between individuals would not be very obvious to the civilization.
After lamenting about his long-lost ‘physical body,’ Li Wenyuan placed his attention on the huge light belt in front of him.
The scene changes in the ‘End of Time’ were not caused by the ‘Professor■ Although it seemed that the ‘Professor’ had guided the changes many times Li Wenyuan preferred to think that the ‘Ring of Time’ had seen through everyone’s thoughts and would present the ‘past1 to them at the right time. According to the ‘Professor,’ that was a superior existence that stood above ‘data.’ What humans knew was only a part of Him. It wasn’t a problem for Him to be able to manipulate the ‘data’ of ‘the ‘End of Time.’
His biological body and the series of scenes from the past were likely done by the ‘Ring of Time.’
In the face of that mysterious existence, humans were completely unable to understand the source of his ‘preference’ just as the ‘Professor’ had said. Li Wenyuan was no exception.
Only the ‘Child of the Stars,’ who were essentially ‘special data,’ had the chance to be ‘nominated.’ So, what did the ‘Ring of Time’ plan to do?
The huge light belt representing the ‘Ring of Time’ in the ‘event horizon’ seemed to flicker as if it was responding to Li Wenyuan.
However, he also knew that the communication between humans and that mysterious existence was not smooth. If a ‘data lifeform’ like them wanted to communicate with life ‘above data,’ it was basically equivalent to crossing to the higher dimension from the lower dimension.
It had always been difficult for the lower dimensions to understand the higher dimensions. No matter what the ‘Ring of Time’ was saying, it was difficult for them to understand.
“However, everything is getting better. A good example is the ’Time Scale’ left outside the Black Hole. He is gradually ‘understanding’ us…”
Li Wenyuan once again looked at the huge light belt. It was clearly called a ‘ring,’ but he couldn’t see the connecting parts at all. It gave off a ‘straight’ visual effect.
If He was really ‘ring-shaped,’ it was not difficult to guess how huge His body was.
“…However, is it really impossible to do something like the ‘remark’ on the Time Scale’? This thing isn’t a human, but something left behind by ‘you ■ right?”
The light belt didn’t respond to Li Wenyuan’s question. Still, Li Wenyuan understood that that trip to the Black Hole was coming to an end.
After entering that place, that part of his consciousness data had been cut off from the outside world. To be precise, it was not cut off. When the outside world data piled up like a mountain, that place was still dealing with the initial matter because the flow of time in there was too slow. The huge time difference led to that perception.
But just then, he could vaguely receive some data fragments from the outside world, which meant that the time flow there was recovering.
The question about the ‘Ring of Time’ was eventually buried in his heart. However, Li Wenyuan, who had obtained the answers to many mysteries, had no regrets.
Perhaps he would get the answer when the ‘Time Ephemera’ really appeared in the universe’ instead of appearing as a scale.
Then it’s time to leave…Let’s focus on the final journey.” The anti-gravity spaceship could no longer escape from the Black Hole, but his consciousness could still leave that place. He only needed to switch the dominant consciousness data, which was a piece of cake for him.
The sensor recorded the appearance of the ‘Ring of Time’ for the last time. The huge light belt seemed to have dimmed a little as if it was sad about the departure of its ‘guest.’
“…DO ‘Gods’ also have emotions?” Seeing that scene, Li Wenyuan suddenly had that idea. Then, he placed that idea in a corner of the virtual world.
Although he didn’t think that the ’Ring of Time’ would have such ’emotions ‘ whenever he thought of the ‘preference’ that the ‘Ring of Time’ had for them, he felt that it was entirely possible.
After an indescribable dizziness, Li Wenyuan’s consciousness returned to the outside of the Black Hole.
The first thing that filled his consciousness was a large blank. The difference in the flow of time inside and outside the Black Hole resulted in him needing some time to synchronize his consciousness data. In reality, it was like he had ‘crashed’ for a while.
When the chaotic data flow was gradually sorted out and the accumulated data was categorized and analyzed, he gradually understood what had happened during that period.
The flow of time in the Black Hole was indeed different from the outside world He had only communicated with the ’Professor’ in the Black Hole for a while but the ’Hunters’ and the ‘Silents’ had already ended their war in the outside ’ world.
Ultimately, the ‘Silents’ still lost to the ’Hunters.’ Although they had a very great understanding of ’space-time’ and had even vaguely touched the limits’ of that path, they were still no match for the ‘Hunters”, who had already understood the ‘essence of the universe’ and could even manipulate the ’essence’ to a certain extent.
The war between the two civilizations directly caused one-tenth of the entire ‘exile grounds’ galaxies to disappear completely. From a macro perspective, an empty hole appeared in the plane of that barred spiral galaxy.
And that was the result of restraining themselves. After all, the ‘Hunters’ had the ability to destroy the entire ‘exile grounds’ in a short period.
If not for the fact that their ‘ascension ground’ was there, they might have used that method.
According to the intelligence of the surveillance spaceship that had been observing the entire battle, although the ’Silents’ had failed, they seemed to have obtained something from the ‘Hunters.’
They used their trump card, a ‘Space-Time Transfer’ technology that no one had seen before, to break into the depths of the ‘Hunter’ civilization’s territory and catch the ‘Hunters’ off guard.
The so-called ‘Superluminal Suppression’ did not seem to work before them Even the ‘Hunters’ could not stop them, and the raid was probably a success.
At least according to the records of the surveillance spaceship, after the ‘Silents’ discovered the secret they needed from the ‘Hunters,’ they stopped fighting until the ’Hunters’ eliminated them.
“…Have they gotten something from the ‘Dimensional Star’?” Li Wenyuan realized that the ‘Silents” final abnormal behavior was definitely because they had already accomplished their goal.
Previously, in order not to fight them, the ‘Hunters’ had shared an ‘anomaly’ that included an introduction to the ‘Dimensional Star.’
At a glance, he felt that that might be what the ‘Silents’ were looking for, but the ‘Hunters’ had made it clear that it was crucial to their ‘ascension.’ They wouldn’t share, nor were they willing to share, detailed information about it.

That also made Li Wenyuan realize that the conflict between the ‘Hunters’ and the ‘Silents’ was irreconcilable.
But now, it seemed that even though the ‘Silents’ had been defeated, it did not mean that they had truly ‘lost.’
He did not think that a civilization, which had always been well-versed in escaping, would not have any backup plans. Perhaps they had already planned everything.
After sorting out all the information, Li Wenyuan set his sights on the ‘end point’ of that galaxy – the ‘Wound’ Galaxy.
As for the ‘Hunters,” they seemed to have almost completed their preparations and were about to begin their ‘great undertaking..’
