"What?" Yan Sichen said in surprise: "But we don't know what a 'time war' is."

It finally revealed its emotions in its words, and it smiled: "This will take a long time, and it may be destined to be impossible from the beginning, but if you can successfully start the 'Golden Age', maybe even just as a

With the echo of wisdom, you can still break through the narrow cognition itself and reach a new level of civilization. By then, other civilizations will naturally tell you what a 'time war' is and actively invite you to join it."

Yan Sichen finally understood its meaning, which was not easy.

"Um...can I understand that we have no chance of cashing in on you for the time being, but you will still choose to help us? Is that what you mean?" Yan Sichen asked.

"Yes." It answered simply.

Yan Sichen was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

His smile was very complicated... there was distrust, disbelief, self-deprecation, bitterness... in short, it was a mix of five things.

Yan Sichen looked at Xian Qianhua. Now that there are only two of them here, they can make a relatively safe decision. Of course, the premise is that Xian Qianhua will not suddenly change his face and take out a hammer and chisel to "kill" it.

"Is my luck so good?" Xian Qianhua suddenly asked a strange question.

It was silent.

After a while, he replied: "Actually, as long as you return to Earth, someone will naturally reveal your secrets for you, but they are afraid of making it public... Of course, this does not mean that they are evil. In fact, it is quite the opposite.

The moral system you have established has limited and constrained the process and development of civilization to some extent. It has become a shackles. Before it is broken through, good and evil are really difficult to define and it seems meaningless."

Xian Qianhua listened silently, and then asked curiously: "I really want to know why you are so confident in saying so much? Or...how do you know this?"

"The ruins are a huge living body. Although it cannot wake up again, it is sensing and analyzing your words and deeds all the time. And all I know about this is through observing the things emanating from you.

I can observe, analyze and understand the things you call 'divine' coming from deep space." After it finished speaking, it added: "Of course the most important thing is, the main core of your base.

In fact, it has been connected with our ruins. While collecting your information, it also shared it with us."

"What?! What did you say? Our base is collecting and analyzing us?" Yan Sichen was shocked and looked at Xian Qianhua.

Xian Qianhua remained silent.

It said: "Don't be too surprised. Calculation is a smart design, but it will spread endlessly like an uncontrollable thought, and eventually you will be lost. This is not a good sign for the wisdom system itself.

.”

Yan Sichen felt a little relieved, but he still decided to carefully check the thinking core of the main base after returning. He wanted to find out how long this thing had been quietly analyzing them and what results it had obtained.

Xian Qianhua is not as sensitive to these things as Yan Sichen, she is much calmer.

“Human beings have always felt lucky and proud to be an individual with autonomous consciousness. However, since the birth of the concept of the Internet of Everything, the bond between people has become closer because of dataism...Individual autonomous consciousness is also

Gradually it was diluted to form an overall state that is more in line with the future development of human civilization... These words were written by Su Che at the beginning of "The Golden Age", you won't forget it, right?" Xian Qianhua asked Yan Sichen.

Yan Sichen was dumbfounded when he heard this and scratched his cheek with embarrassment: "I seem to have remembered it, but if you sail carefully, maybe we will think of the Fengcheng Plan, or... the Fengcheng Plan itself may be a trap."

"When the Shanhai was destroyed, we were all flying around like driven pigeons. If you hadn't pushed me into the escape cabin, I would have been dead. How can I say... are you the one who set up this trap?" Xian Qianhua suddenly asked.

asked a question that Yan Sichen didn't know how to answer.

Yan Sichen quickly explained: "No, no, no, I didn't mean that, no... I meant... Oops, why do you suddenly doubt me?"

Xian Qianhua did not discuss this issue with Yan Sichen any further.

She asked it: "By the way, what should we call you?"

"random."

"No, I think it's best if you tell us directly, otherwise someone will definitely give you a nondescript name." Xian Qianyan said in a deep voice. When she said this, she had already thought of what Chu Xiaoming would name it.

"Well... then call me Kether. I chose a good name from your wisdom."

"kether? This name looks so familiar?" Yan Sichen seemed to be impressed.

It explained: "The Ancient Tree of Life in Kabbalah, I like this concrete description very much."

"Oh! Yes! I remembered it! Kabbalah Ancient Tree of Life, kether! Crown! Wow, you are really confident." Yan Sichen couldn't help but sigh.

"Confidence? Is there any direct connection between the crown and confidence?" Kether asked.

Yan Sichen was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I was just talking casually."

Xian Qianhua rolled her eyes at him, and then asked Kether: "We are going back to the base now, what should you do? From the outside, it looks like you are stuck in the crevice of the rock."

Kether said: "It's very simple. You can use a hammer and chisel to directly remove the crystals on the base, and then I can leave with you."

Yan Sichen almost choked on his own saliva when he heard this: "What? Do you really need to use a hammer? Is this too hasty?"

Kether said calmly: "There is no better way. This is the most direct and effective. Of course, I suggest you determine where the core part of the crystal is before taking action. If there is serious damage there, I may die directly.

.”

Xian Qianhua, who was about to take action, had a gloomy look on her face. She put down her tools and said, "Okay, I'd better reconsider a safer approach."

Kether was not in a hurry: "What a good idea. I've been trapped here for a long time anyway, so I don't mind waiting a little longer."

Xian Qianhua didn't answer his words. She looked at Yan Sichen and said, "What do you mean, why don't you go back first? Come back after you find something useful?"

Yan Sichen smiled and nodded: "Yes! I'll go back as soon as I can!" Then he was about to leave immediately, then turned around and said: "So, can you tell me how to go back first?"

kether: "It's very simple, follow this light, it should guide you back to the surface of Mars."

After saying that, a flickering light spot appeared in front of Yan Sichen.

Yan Sichen tried to touch it with his hand, but was warned by Kether: "I don't recommend you do this before you understand how dangerous it is, so please manage your curiosity."

Yan Sichen had a look of disgust on his face when he heard this. He immediately retracted his hand, then looked at Xian Qianhua and said, "Is it okay for you to be alone?"

Xian Qianhua calmly replied: "What problem can there be? If there is really a problem, it won't make any difference if you stay here."

Yan Sichen didn't get angry after being choked. He laughed and lowered his mask: "Okay, I'll come back as soon as possible."

"Oh, have a nice trip." Xian Qianhua was still very calm.

Yan Sichen was almost knocked to the ground by this perfunctory attitude.

He sighed softly, then followed the light spot and left the narrow space.

After Yan Sichen left, Xian Qianhua asked Kether, "Can I ask you a few more questions?"

"certainly."

Xian Qianhua hesitated a little after receiving the affirmative answer.

After a long while, Xian Qianhua raised her head and looked at the crystal and said: "My memory... is it real, or is it a compiled lie?"

Crystal replied...

…

In the dream rift at the same time.

After wandering in the desert for several days, Qingshui Masato, Shen Yinuo and Su Wanxia finally found a culvert under an oasis that led them deeper into the dreamland. Compared with the outside world, the world in the culvert was like a world of ice and fire.

Although the light here is not sufficient, the traces of man-made construction are obvious. There are searchlights everywhere, and it does not look so dark. But walking in it, Qingshui Masato still feels really eerie and eerie.

She looked at the culvert that continued to extend downwards and the densely populated Shilin in the culvert. The shadows seemed to hide many terrifying monsters. When she was in the desert before, Qingshui Masato saw giant puppets wandering aimlessly. , and also encountered a super giant rock python waiting for an opportunity in the cold night.

These memories are so confusing that there is no order to be found. Sometimes Masato Shimizu can't help but think of them.

What kind of person would have such a messy dream? Or...what is hidden deep in Xian Qianhua's brain?

While walking, Masato Qingshui suddenly noticed a glowing underground river in front of him. It flowed slowly and was as quiet as a still ribbon.

Human corpses appeared beside the underground river shining under the lights. They seemed to have been dead for many years.

Masato Shimizu couldn't help but speed up.

Shen Yinuo and Su Wanxia immediately followed after seeing this.

Shen Yinuo also reminded: "Slow down, Yaren! Don't walk so fast!"

But Masato Qingmizu, who had been trapped in the dream rift for a long time, was already in a trance, and now she could not tell what kind of reality was the real reality.

What are these confusing, even scrawled and perfunctory things expressing?

She ran towards the beach and stopped near the corpses.

There were three corpses, lined up in a row, all lying flat. Judging from the skeletons, they should be one man and two women, but there was no "hug left and right". Their heads were facing the underground river, but their eyes were looking blankly at the culvert. above.

Masato Shimizu couldn't help but look up at those empty eyes.

The top of the culvert was pitch black, and there was nothing specific or noticeable. But they...why did they lie on the tidal flat of the underground river and die so peacefully.

Who are they?

Looking at the three corpses, Shen Yinuo remained silent. Like Qingshui Masato, he followed the empty gazes of the three corpses and looked up the culvert.

It was at this time that Qingshui Masato, Shen Yinuo and Su Wanxia all looked up at the top of the culvert without an agreement.

Suddenly, they felt dizzy, and the three of them closed their eyes involuntarily.

When they opened it again, they found themselves lying on the river beach, and the three corpses had long disappeared. They tried to get up, but their bodies were out of control.

Masato Qingshui turned her head to look at Shen Yinuo in panic, and Shen Yinuo was also looking at her.

At this moment, Qingshui Masato realized with horror... Could it be that those three corpses were themselves?!

Will they also turn into withered bones and repeat this endless nightmare over and over again?
