Chapter 389: The Hunter and Prey
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
What the specialist left behind was a record of how to use the Pillar of Creation and the Reality Penetrometer. It was obvious that while traveling everywhere, humans had not relaxed their research.
Most of the products derived from the Level 9 Creation Theory could be considered law to a certain extent.
However, manipulating the law wasn’t an easy task. It didn’t mean that he could destroy a planet with a thought after obtaining this technology. The Creation Theory itself was a theoretical technology that needed to be put into practice, and its derivatives were its practical tools. Under normal circ.u.mstances, after Li Wenyuan built the Pillar of Creation, he still needed to explore the use of this super megastructure through a large number of experiments.
Modifying the laws was a serious matter. The universe itself could form such a macroscopic and stable appearance because of the complementarity between the various laws.
Modifying the law would affect everything. For example, modifying the speed of light would not only change the speed of the photon’s propagation but also all the physical or chemical properties related to the speed of light.
On the surface, it only changed the photon’s speed, but in fact, the electromagnetic force that formed matter would also be affected. The speed at which the atoms combined into molecules would change, and the efficiency of the aggregation between molecules would also change.
Perhaps hydrogen wouldn’t be able to form helium through fusion, then there would be a problem with the fusion reaction of the star. The energy released wouldn’t be able to resist its own gravity, and it would enter the collapse stage early.
These were all the implications of changing a seemingly insignificant number Therefore, modifying the law couldn’t be done as one wished. Otherwise, the universe would quickly be played badly.
Li Wenyuan didn’t know how civilizations like the scribe and the Hunter knew about the use of universe laws. Perhaps the reason why they hadn’t started to abuse this technology was because of some kind of tacit understanding. This was just like the nuclear deterrence in the native civilizations. Everyone knew what the consequences of doing this would be. Everyone hoped that they would not have to resort to all means.
“…So as long as we reach this step, it’s equivalent to having the pa.s.sword to the cosmic nuclear bomb in our hands…”
Li Wenyuan had already realized the social role of Creation Theory in this universe that didn’t have many civilizations. Perhaps only by mastering this technology could one be qualified to stand on the stage of this universe.
“It’s different from the interstellar stage where you only need to do any kind of superluminal travel. The requirements for the cosmic stage are even stricter…” “It’s no wonder we haven’t seen more civilizations like the scribes so far…” Although he understood the role of the Pillar of Creation in the influence of the cosmic society, it was not a weapon in essence, but a convenient construction facility. Therefore, it shouldn’t be a problem to use the Power of Creation in small quant.i.ties.
As long as he stopped the influence factor before causing more impact, he could easily do some things that he had never imagined before, such as dividing the galaxy.
He felt that the scribes most likely used a similar Pillar of Creation to separate the spiral galaxy, and the reason why the Hunters could attract the void was probably related to the Pillar of Creation they had.
Whether it was used as a weapon or as engineering equipment, the Pillar of Creation was obviously an extremely useful megastructure. This might be another huge leap in Li Wenyuan’s combat strength since the Tiangang Battleship.
As for the method left behind by the specialists to use the Pillar of Creation and the Reality Penetrometer, it saved him the tedious process of debugging and understanding the Pillar of Creation. It was like a template that could be used in one set.
NOW, as long as he built the huge Pillar of Creation, he wouldn’t have to worry about the invisible threat of those civilizations that he had yet to come into contact with.
At least so far, he had the nuclear bomb secret.
“…Then this matter is over. It’s about time to go back. While I take a look at the content of the signal left behind by the Void Lord before it disappeared, I can also tell the Ether Dragon about her companion…”
Just as Li Wenyuan was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something. He switched his consciousness to the s.p.a.ceship closest to the Observation Terminal and connected to this planetary machine again.
If he remembered correctly, the Void Lord had mentioned that the Hunter had left a backup plan in this Observation Terminal.
The scribe had clearly never been here before, so this backup plan definitely hadn’t been eliminated. Then, he might be able to use this backup plan to reverse-locate the Hunter’s location.
It didn’t mean that he was going to look for the other party now. After all, he hadn’t finished building the Pillar of Creation. Furthermore, there were still two places he hadn’t gone to with the three human tracking coordinates provided by the Infinite Divine Armaments.
Humans did not leave an Outer Stargate in this megacorp galaxy. Perhaps humans had already solved the problem of moving across the galaxy through Creation Theory, and the specialist did not leave any clues as to where they went after that. This undoubtedly made it more difficult to find them.
However, the specialist didn’t seem to be worried that Li Wenyuan wouldn’t be able to find them. The mysterious connection seemed to still be related to each other.
Li Wenyuan’s current focus was locked on the last two human ruin coordinates galaxy. One of them was eight million light-years away from the spiral galaxy that had been Great Separation, while the other was a billion light-years away. The distance of a billion light-years was unimaginable to him previously, but with the Pillar of Creation, he might be able to find a way to reach there ’ quickly.
The reason why he wanted to check the backup plan that the Hunter had left in the Observation Terminal was related to the galaxy eight million light-years away.
That galaxy was enveloped by a mysterious s.p.a.ce-time distortion phenomenon. No matter how many s.p.a.ceships he sent out, they could not enter or leave that distorted s.p.a.ce. They could only stay in the state of advancing but not reaching their destination forever.
In the past, he had some doubts about this, but after knowing the feud between the scribe and the Hunter, he suspected that that place was where the Hunter was trapped. Even if it wasn’t, it must be related to them.
It was too much of a coincidence for such a suspected cage to appear at such a close distance, and he would find the Hunter’s location through the loophole left behind in the Observation Terminal.
“Then… let me confirm if there’s a reversal in the positions of the hunter and the prey…”
In the end, Li Wenyuan found the loophole. This was an activation program, and the final target that the program signal pointed to was the cage galaxy ’ surrounded by s.p.a.ce-time distortion phenomena..
