Chapter 1371: Chapter 36 Gao Wen’s Ultimate Reasoning_3

He looked back and forth at Lin Xian and Gao Wen:

“This is also the part I’ve been puzzled about. They keep saying the Millennium Stakes can lock history, but what exactly have they locked? Using outdated terms from 200 years ago… it’s like locking a loneliness.”

“The Millennium Stakes keep being driven, yet history continues to change. Moreover, without the stakes, we can’t travel back in time; with them, they instead create a Space-Time Rift for us to travel back, isn’t this like lifting a rock only to drop it on one’s own foot?”

Lin Xian stood up, wagging his index finger:

“There are two possibilities.”

“One is that the Millennium Stakes lock a single world line. We indeed changed the future before, but simultaneously, our world line shifted… which means we merely leaped to a new world line without truly changing the original one.”

“The second possibility is… is it possible that the history locked by the Millennium Stakes isn’t human history at all, but rather the history of the ‘Mysterious Power’?”

He proposed a new idea:

“Remember when we discussed earlier, Huang Que traveled through time for many years, stepping on many ants, eating many chickens, ducks, fish, and geese; this already counts as interference in history, just without breaking Space-Time Elasticity.”

“Let me formulate a hypothesis here; if I pour hot water into all the ant nests in Donghai City, killing hundreds of thousands of ants, do you think it can break Space-Time Elasticity?”

Liu Feng shook his head:

“Even if you killed all the ants in China, I doubt it’d break Space-Time Elasticity.”

Suddenly, Liu Feng had an epiphany:

“Are you saying…?”

“[From the perspective of the ‘Mysterious Power’, perhaps our human civilization is akin to ants! Our impact on space-time curvature and world lines appears insignificant on their scale!] ”

Lin Xian nodded:

“You see, the greatest change we’ve made to world lines currently is from 0.0000000 to 0.0001764. This number is really very small; even if we exert all our efforts, we cannot affect the digit before the decimal point of space-time curvature.”

“Is it possible that our tireless efforts are merely meaningless antics similar to ants for the ‘Mysterious Power’; only the World-Ending White Light, and cosmic constant 42 are the truly important Space-Time Elasticity for them?”

“From the normal development of human civilization to total extinction, it’s just 0.0000000 to 0.0001764… Liu Feng, have you ever considered what the world line before the decimal point looks like?”

“World line 42, world line 4200000, what kind of world would that be?”

Listening to the debate between Lin Xian and Liu Feng.

Gao Wen closed his eyes.

Images of ant nests completely exterminated by hot water kept flashing in his mind.

Hot water, wouldn’t it be the World-Ending White Light for ant colonies?

And in the entire universe.

Human insignificance, let alone ants, not even a speck of dust… The number of stars in the universe far exceeds the grains of sand in a desert; Earth is merely one of the planets of the remote star, the Sun.

“History…”

He murmured softly.

What is history?

Does the history of ants count as history?

Does the history of humans count as history?

Is the history of ants worth locking?

Is human history worth locking?

In an instant.

Gao Wen opened his eyes wide, scanning through the seven questions listed by Liu Feng from top to bottom.

He seemed to find a knitting needle.

Like threading a needle, he linked all the question marks of the seven questions together, stringing them into a line, forming the sole answer!

“I… I thought of it.”

Gao Wen’s voice trembled slightly.

He snatched the electronic chalk from Liu Feng’s hand and rapidly wrote down a time—

August 29, 2624, 00:42.

“This is the arrival time of the World-Ending White Light!”

Gao Wen’s voice was excited:

“At the same time, it’s also the time calculated by Lin Xian and Gao Yang when the last Millennium Stake’s holder turns twenty years old and was supposed to dissipate!”

“The dissipation of the Millennium Stake and the arrival of the World-Ending White Light, both unseen by Einstein, yet coincidentally arrive at the same time… No, this is definitely not a coincidence; this is connected!”

“It seems that all these are actually serving the Millennium Stake, including the arrival of the World-Ending White Light, which is due to the Millennium Stake!”

He used the electronic chalk to frantically tap the third question on the blackboard:

“Now, returning to the initial question… two Space-Time Particles, casting the Millennium Stake and Einstein respectively, what is the connection, what is the secret?”

Gao Wen took a deep breath and turned back:

“I seem to know the ‘Mysterious Power’s’ purpose of deliberately showing Einstein a false future… Put simply, they are so powerful that they don’t regard our human antics at all.”

“In their eyes, our combined value is less than a single Millennium Stake; our threats combined are less than the secret of cosmic constant 42. The ‘Mysterious Power’ is not afraid of our human technological explosion or rapid development… They only fear cosmic constant 42; this is the only thing threatening them!”

He swallowed saliva and said solemnly:

“I speculate…”

“[The Millennium Stakes aim to lock their history, not ours.] ”

“[And the true purpose of deceiving and using Einstein is not the simple act of destroying humanity… but to conceal something deeper, preventing humans from unraveling the truth of cosmic constant 42, to ensure the Millennium Stakes can nail down and lock history smoothly!] “
