Chapter 429: The Origin of Mankind
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“…The above is the development history of the ‘human civilization1 before I entered the ‘event horizon.’ I believe you have already come to the conclusion of whether this is the ‘mankind’ you know.”
The ‘Professor’ seemed to be used to the changes in the environment around him. He calmly asked Li Wenyuan to confirm which era of human civilization’ he was in.
However, after noticing that the environment had stopped at a group of people wearing white coats working around a supercomputer, the ‘Professor’ seemed to understand something. While Li Wenyuan was thinking, he said, “I was thinking too much previously… You’re this generation’s ‘Child of the Stars,’ right? I should have thought so long ago. After all, not everyone could enter this place. Only those ‘special people’ had the right to be ‘nominated.’”
As he said that, the ‘Professor’ even revealed a reminiscing expression. The busy scene of the group of people in white coats seemed to remind him of the past.
As for Li Wenyuan, he was thinking about what the ‘Professor’ had said.
“‘Special people’…?” Of course, he knew what it meant, but he was a little curious when he heard the ‘Professor’ said that only ‘special people’ could get to that place.
That was because the job title ‘Professor’ did not seem to belong to the category of ‘special data.’ When he thought of that, Li Wenyuan remembered that he did not seem to know the name of the ‘Professor.’
And it was the same with the ‘Specialists’ and ‘Professors’ associated with it. By right, the names of the top scientists of mankind should be able to be recorded in the annals of history. No matter how bad it was, their names would also be called, such as ‘Specialist Yang, Professor Liu’ or ‘Professor Tom, Professor Jerry,’ and so on.
It seemed that from the beginning until now, those scientists did not have names. Instead, they appeared in Li Wenyuan’s memory as an ‘identity.’
The ‘Professor’ seemed to understand his doubts. He walked to those in white coats in the ‘scene’ and wanted to reach out to touch them, but he regretfully retracted his hand after remembering something. He then said calmly, “Of course, we have our names as ‘humans,’ but that was a long time ago.”
“After we tried to become ‘special people,’ we abandoned our names and only addressed each other by code names.”
“The same goes for the ‘Specialists’ and ‘Professors.’ Actually, we’ve also used many code names, such as ‘Genius,’ ‘Special Agent,’ ‘Weapon,’ and so on…But in the end, only these three code names remained.”
“Yes, we are trying to create more ‘Child of the Stars’ to make the next ‘origin’ even more perfect.”
“As for why we don’t use our names as the ‘data’ for the ‘Child of the Stars,’ the reason is simply due to ‘data.’ Those three terms have the least amount of data and are the most convenient to shape.”
“You can think that this is a sacrifice for ‘science,’ but I can’t accept such praise. In the past, there were predecessors who did things that were even harder than us. In comparison, forgetting a name is nothing worth remembering.”
“Perhaps we won’t have to be so embarrassed when we can use ‘realistic data’ more efficiently.”
At that moment, rational thinking was vividly reflected in the ‘Professor.’ He really didn’t care about such opportunities to ‘leave his name for eternity.’ Instead, he chose the most convenient, practical, and least risky plan.
That was indeed truly ‘leaving a name for eternity.’ Li Wenyuan knew that ‘he’ had existed countless ‘cycles’ ago. The information he left behind could still be received today. He even knew that the past ‘Li Wenyuan’ was a pioneer.
However, in the end, the top scientists of that generation all embarked on the same path and worked hard for the cause of mankind.
“…Then, may I ask what exactly is the use of the ‘Child of the Stars’? I only know that people with ‘special data’ are the ‘beginning of the reform’ and the ‘role of fate’…But on the level of ‘data,’ what is this portion of ‘Child of the Stars special data’ used for?”
Li Wenyuan couldn’t help but ask that question. His understanding of the ‘Child of the Stars’ was only a few sentences from the ‘Void Bug,’ and his current understanding of ‘realistic data’ wasn’t high. He didn’t have a clear understanding of what ‘data’ represented in the ‘universe.’
From his point of view, the ‘Professor’ obviously knew about that question.
Upon hearing his question, the ‘Professor’ revealed a very surprised expression and said with a strange expression, “…Although I have a hunch, do you really not know about these things?”
“What is your identity outside the Black Hole? Could it be that all the educators died and didn’t give you the necessary knowledge? It is impossible for you to come here without being granted relevant knowledge.”
Seeing that, Li Wenyuan revealed his identity. He was an ‘artificial intelligence’ that had been revived out of a ‘sense of ritual’ and was currently actively searching for humans. And the ‘Professor’ was the first ‘human’ he had ever met.
When the ‘Professor’ asked ‘why there wasn’t a database that contained everything they knew for him to use,’ Li Wenyuan told him the reason that led to that situation.
It was obvious that humans had left behind complete data. Before he woke up as a new ‘custody agreement,’ the real ‘custody agreement artificial intelligence’ in the past controlled a series of storage facilities such as the ‘central processing unit’ and the ‘core database.’
Needless to say, there must be a lot of data related to the ‘world’ waiting for Li Wenyuan to check. However, all of that was destroyed because of a little ‘negligence.’ Humans had underestimated the ‘Purification Terminal.’
Later, when humans realized how dangerous the ‘Purification Terminal’ was, they did not leave everything they knew in the ‘Obelisk Database.’
They didn’t seem to realize how much damage the ‘Purification Terminal’ had caused in the Milky Way, nor did they realize that only a small portion of the ‘data’ they had applied multiple insurance measures on was still intact.
He was just piecing together the truth bit by bit in confusion and then chasing after them while listening to the riddle-like news.
The ‘Professor’ also looked unhappy after hearing Li Wenyuan’s story. It was obvious that he also realized Li Wenyuan’s ‘misfortune’ and that his ‘students’ didn’t know what had happened in the Milky Way.
After that, the ‘Professor’ heaved a long sigh of relief and said to Li Wenyuan, “This can indeed be considered a ‘major accident’…! will tell you everything.”
“Let’s start with the ‘Child of the Stars.’ You should already know that the essence of this world is ‘data.’ For us to be one step ahead at the starting line, we will need to modify a portion of the ‘data’ to have a better ‘origin’ in the next ‘cycle.’”
“And the ‘Child of the Stars’ is actually something similar to a ‘trigger.’ Because the time of the occurrence of the ‘origin’ is not fixed. To trigger the ‘origin’ at a specific stage of civilization, the ‘Child of the Stars’ has to associate the ‘origin data.’”
“I’ve already grasped the data of the last ‘origin.’ You can take a look…”
As he spoke, Li Wenyuan suddenly felt his surroundings change. He was in a place that looked like the interior of a spaceship. There was a projection screen in front of him and the ‘Professor,’ displaying the ‘origin data’ in front of Li Wenyuan.
[Project: Origin – External Impact]
[Introduction: The influence of extraterrestrials is not limited to civilizations. Sometimes, the fall of certain celestial bodies or the arrival of space lifeforms will have a huge impact on the entire civilization.]
[Reality Code: -]
Of course, that was not the only one that had shaped the ‘origin of mankind.’ In Li Wenyuan’s eyes, at least seven or eight ‘origin data’ had been integrated together as the ‘origin of mankind’ this time.
The ‘Chosen Ones’ was one of them.
[Project: Origin – Destiny Empire]
[Introduction: We don’t need the guidance of ‘God.’ To us, we are the masters of our own souls]
[Reality Code: -]
[Remark: This is an extremely challenging origin. The ‘Chosen Ones’ will be the main body of the civilization, but as a price, this civilization will have a high chance of signing a destructive contract with some kind of Void Realm existence.]
That was the source of the ‘Chosen Ones of the entire human race,’ which was mentioned by the ‘Professor,’ that Li Wenyuan knew about.
However, humans had used other ‘origins’ to avoid the danger behind that origin. Although they would sign a contract with a Void Realm existence like the ‘End of Reincarnation,’ as long as that origin was triggered before the Void Realm completely evolved, they would not have to worry about the danger of the ‘contract’ because at that time, those ‘Gods of Void Realm’ did not exist.
After checking those ‘origin data,’ Li Wenyuan could only lament that he was really unlucky. Because he was just unlucky enough to be hit by a meteorite brought by the ‘Origin – External Impact.’
In that regard, the ‘Professor’ believed that as the ‘Child of the Stars,’ he should have come into contact with the meteorite the moment it fell and triggered his psionic ability potential, entering the so-called era of ‘Revival of Spiritual Energy’ before everyone else and becoming the ‘beginning of the reform.’ He seemed to be the perfect template for the protagonist of a novel.
Perhaps it was because he rode a little too fast. He eventually became a ‘Reformist’ in another sense, which also counted as completing his ‘mission.’
“…Of course, we only realize you are the ‘Child of the Stars’ after a long time. We couldn’t even be sure, and we only had a ‘feeling.’”
“However, I’ve already confirmed your identity after seeing you here.”
“I, the ‘Specialists’ and the’ ‘Professors’ ‘are all here to become the ‘Child of the Stars’ that leads the revolution.”
“We have a lot of ‘origin data,’ but we can’t find a suitable way to use them. Therefore, we thought it would be better to use multiple ‘Child of the Stars’ to form a ‘multi-stage trigger.’ Now that we have indeed accomplished this goal, our ‘data’ is already one of the ‘special data.’”
Speaking up till then, the ‘Professor’ let out a long sigh of relief, as if it was not easy for him to finish so many words in one breath.
Then, he changed to a serious expression and said to him very solemnly, “What I’m going to talk to you about next is a very serious topic.”
“Where is ‘here’? How do we know this information? Why did this universe exist? Why do we have to go through ‘cycles’ again and again?”
“I will tell you all of this ‘here..’”
