Chapter 428: Ring of Time

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I’m ‘Professor’ from the ‘Omega-8391’ World. I wonder if I’m the one you’re looking for?”

The ‘Professor’ calmly revealed one of his ‘origins,’ but that information was enough to shock Li Wenyuan.

There was more than one ‘Professor’? Or could it be…there’s more than one ‘world’?

Such thoughts inevitably appeared in Li Wenyuan’s mind, but the ‘Professor’ seemed to have seen through Li Wenyuan’s thoughts. With a strange expression, he said, “…You don’t seem to understand the meaning of that. That is weird. A ‘human’ who can come to this place should know what I’m saying.” “Or are you not a ‘human’?” The ‘Professor’ quickly shook his head and denied, “Impossible. The ‘Ring of Time’ hasn’t ‘chosen’ another race for a long time. Although some geniuses are occasionally summoned, it’s impossible for them to come before me.”

“Moreover…” He sized up Li Wenyuan and said with certainty, “You’re a native Homo lifeform. I find it hard to imagine that any civilization would choose to copy such a ‘backward’ human body to enter here.”

“Looking at your current state, you don’t seem to be used to this body. Perhaps your previous state was not an ‘independent primate lifeform’? Was it a beehive? Was it artificial intelligence? A dimensional lifeform? Or some life carrier that I don’t know about?”

The ‘Professor’s’ eyes were filled with child-like curiosity. The end of time didn’t seem to make him lose his pursuit of the unknown.

However, before Li Wenyuan could answer, the ‘Professor’ patted his head and said apologetically, “I’m sorry. My bad habit of finding out things to the end has returned.”

“Since you don’t quite understand what I’m talking about, let me explain first. This way, our future communication will be easier.”

“The ‘Omega World’ is our method of counting the ‘circulating universe.’ I think you should know that the ‘universe’ has already ‘cycled’ more than once. Then you should be able to guess now that the number ‘839T refers to the ‘8391st cycle’.”

What the ‘Professor’ said was exactly what Li Wenyuan was thinking, but he was a little curious about how the ‘Professor’ could be so accurate. Could they have already mastered the previous ‘cycle’ records?

The ‘Professor’ did not disappoint Li Wenyuan’s expectations and continued, “We actually don’t know the exact number of cycles. This is just the ‘lowest value’ that we have obtained from our existing knowledge. We have experienced at least 8391 cycles, and the actual number may be much higher.” “Because not every ‘cycle’ can leave an exact record. Perhaps, before we consciously left a ‘trace’ for the first time, we had already gone through countless cycles.”

“But theoretically speaking, the ‘cycle’ I represent should be the latest one because there is no new ‘Professor’ to replace my position.”

“It’s like a time paradox. The exact same ‘data’ won’t appear. If I’m still here, it means that no new ‘Professor’ has appeared. Then, even if the ‘cycle’ I’m in isn’t the latest one, it will be the latest one.”

“But this is the ‘end of time’ after all. You might be a ‘fragment of the past.'”

“To make it easier for you to determine the cycle node, I will describe the ‘civilization of mankind’ in detail.”

“This time, the revolution of human civilization origin from a meteorite…”

After the ‘Professor’ described the characteristics of the ‘civilization of mankind’ in detail, Li Wenyuan gradually felt a sense of familiarity.

For some reason, the surrounding ‘Earth scenery’ had changed. It seemed to be forming the same scene as what the ‘Professor’ was describing.

Li Wenyuan saw an ordinary-looking young man riding a bicycle on a main road, humming a tune.

He seemed to be on a self-driving trip, and the news broadcast about the ‘meteor shower would soon be passing by Earth’ was still playing in his earpiece.

The possibility of being killed by a meteorite was very small, but it was definitely not zero. That ‘lucky young man’ who traveled by himself became a person who was enough to go down in history.

In Li Wenyuan’s eyes, a burning fireball kicked up a cloud of dust after falling to the ground. But when the dust settled, the scenery had already become a ‘future world.’

A large number of high-speed aircraft shuttled through the sky. There were not only clouds in the sky but also ‘stairways’ that led straight to space.

However, that wasn’t the main point of the scene. It was a group of spaceships.

They traveled between Earth and other planets in the solar system, and quickly established a series of cities in those places, spreading the human footprint outside the Earth-Moon system for the first time.

The eclipse that had not been seen for a long time finally appeared then. But the moon that blocked the sun was still emitting some light because there was still a prosperous ‘Moon City’ above, which was brightly lit every hour and every moment.

After the eclipse, the scenery changed again with the strong light.

A piece of news about ‘a space lifeform approaching the solar system’ became the mainstream discussion at that time. A batch of spaceships began to set off to intercept that space lifeform.

At that moment, Li Wenyuan seemed to have become one of them. He followed the spaceships and came to the side of the space lifeform.

It was a huge luminous object that looked like a star from afar. Although it was too small compared to a star, its light was not inferior to the brightest stars. That space lifeform attacked humans, so humans killed it and brought back some of its remains. Part of them were used for research, and some were used to build a memorial.

When he saw that, Li Wenyuan could basically confirm that that ‘Professor’ was the ‘Professor’ he knew, and it represented the ‘cycle that time.’

However, the ‘Professor’ did not stop narrating. He told more about the ‘human past’ that Li Wenyuan did not know.

For example, in the early days of the Space Age, Earth had a long confrontation with the Separatists in the Mars Colony, which almost caused humanity to split into two ‘space nations,’ the ‘Martian Kingdom’ and the ‘Earth Union.’

For example, in the process of building a hyperspace channel, a major engineering accident caused the hyperspace to collapse, destroying a research center ship carrying thousands of researchers. No one survived.

Another example was a person with a backward mindset who drove a fully functional spaceship alone to a planet that had already given birth to a primitive civilization. He tyrannized there, and when the law enforcers found him, he had already become an Emperor with tens of thousands of ‘harem beauties.’

By the way, the original inhabitants there were a species similar to crocodiles.

According to the ‘Professor,’ the image of humans gradually turned from a group of perfect ‘Gods’ into one with many flaws.

However, in Li Wenyuan’s eyes, their image was constantly growing. There had never been a ‘perfect God,’ only a group of hardworking people with various emotions.

The last part of his speech was the moment before the ‘Professor’ entered the Black Hole. With a passion for the unknown, he embarked on a path of no return.

However, the surrounding environment did not change. Instead, it changed to a laboratory-like scene.

A group of people in white coats surrounded and were busy with something that looked like a supercomputer. They were led by a ‘scientist’ with the messiest hair and the youngest age.

The young genius seemed to be troubled by something, but as Li Wenyuan’s gaze fell on him, he seemed to feel the gaze and suddenly turned his head to look at Li Wenyuan.

However, the genius didn’t seem to notice anything. After muttering a few words in confusion, he focused his attention on the computer again.

However, the seemingly advanced computer seemed to be missing something, which made the genius very distressed.

In the end, he seemed to have thought of something and flipped through a name list.

At the very front of the name list, he found a name: Li Wenyuan.

He then turned back to look at where he had felt the ‘gaze’ earlier. Although there was nothing there, he smiled inexplicably, as if he had already transcended space-time and saw Li Wenyuan there..
