It's a puzzling but fascinating conjecture: If there is such a thing, it exists somewhere, yet neither you nor everyone you know has ever known anything about it. Information, you don’t know what it looks like, its origin, its location, or whether it exists, and no one has even told you that there is such a thing somewhere in the world. At the same time, this kind of thing will not have any influence on you, whether it is born, evolved, or died, it will not produce any information intersection for you.
So, does such a thing really exist for you
When something like this disappears for some reason, does it really happen to you
This is the case, there are many worlds that should have been discovered, but in the end no one found these worlds, they were unknown to you from the beginning of their birth, and they died without leaving any clues, you will never find them anyway The evidence that this world once existed and was destroyed can only be guessed from some statistical figures and experience, oh, there should be something here, but now they are all gone—even its end, can only be guessed. Drawing conclusions by inference is still a conclusion that can never be proved or falsified by visual inspection.
That's what happened when Void Cataclysm happened.
"I'm afraid the specific time point will never be confirmed, because you can't determine when a thing that only existed statistically will die-if you determine this time point, this thing will not die out, because you have already Knowing that it exists, but in the cataclysm of the void, none of the discovered worlds perished," Chen Xiaoxue said, "After realizing that there were no new undiscovered worlds in the void, my second uncle felt that something was wrong, so Guess the essence of the Void Cataclysm should be a big shuffle with immunity rules. The worlds that are exempted have a common feature, that is, they can be matched with void creatures-just a little bit, for example, an imperial soldier once visited this world , then this world is equivalent to having a connection with you, Dad. Even if your subjective consciousness does not understand this world, it can survive the cataclysm of the void, and those worlds that have not been able to connect with void creatures at all, then It was deleted mercilessly, but there is no definite evidence for this process, after all, apart from statistical laws, there is no evidence that those worlds really existed."
"What happened after that further supported this inference: the scouts sent by the three of you started to discover the first strange new world after a period of continuous work, but this new world was just born, and its age is so short that it can be ignored Regardless, after that, everything seems to be on the right track again, and new worlds are constantly being discovered, of course not as fast as before the cataclysm, and those new worlds all have one thing in common, that is, they are young: they were born very recently."
"The old unowned worlds of the old generation were all emptied in an instant, and then the void began to store new data like a formatted database." Sandora looked into my eyes "Some worlds survived the format simply because Being able to have a little bit of relationship with void creatures. This kind of thing, even for the apostles of Xiling, is really scary. Jun, your understanding of void should be the most intuitive. You think void will have this kind of... Is this tendency?"
Sandora tried to find a suitable word to describe the essence of the void cataclysm, but the void in a broad sense has no personality, so in the end she could only use the slightly anthropomorphic word "inclination".
"I'm really not sure." I rubbed my forehead with a wry smile, "I do have a feeling for the void, but how should I put it..."
"Creatures trapped in the two-dimensional world can never understand what height is." Sandora said brilliantly, "No matter how we imagine it, we can't understand how your body feels when you are in the state of a void creature, and you can't say it yourself." clear."
"That's what happened."
"Well, now we just need to know that the Void Cataclysm will definitely happen, but no one can directly see this process." Sandora began to collect the known information bit by bit, "Chen Xiaoxue—now you Based on the fact that the words [true] are correct, when did the Void Cataclysm occur?"
"An uncertain time." Chen Xiaoxue spread her hands on the table, "Okay, let's explain what's wrong with me first, or you will always regard me as someone who traveled from the future—strictly speaking, you The Chen Xiaoxue in front of me actually does not exist. The real me is at a certain point in time after the Void Cataclysm, but that point in time has not yet begun. The phantoms accumulated by sex are similar to the clusters of information projected into the present at a certain point in the future. From your perspective, you can even think that I don’t exist: it’s like a conjecture. Before you have definite evidence, please treat me as a A conjecture. Now I'll pause for a second, and you guys go through it."
I don't think I'd understand much if she paused - it's a lot more complicated than riding a monkey up a tree and a monkey down a tree.
However, as a prophet, Lin Xue often dealt with this kind of logical problems, so she understood at this time: "In other words, you are equivalent to the probe that the future Chen Xiaoxue puts at this point in time, but this probe theoretically has no Entity, you are a set of information."
"The probe's statement is quite accurate, but the more precise term is 'inevitability that has not yet happened." The other party nodded with a smile, "The cataclysm of the void may start ten years later, or it may start a billion years later, no matter when it happens , then I will be born in the fifth year after the cataclysm. However, in the current timeline, this event is only an 'inevitable event' rather than a '〖〖real〗 event'. Information determines everything. When all given information is Restrictions are good, after all the interfering factors are fully calculated, even things that didn’t happen can still have practical significance. This is the origin of the virtual projection named ‘Chen Xiaoxue’ in front of you. I am not the real Chen Xiaoxue, but apart from this concept Other than that, everything about me is completely equivalent to the real Chen Xiaoxue. This process is a bit long to explain, so let me briefly explain: the cataclysm of the void affected everything at the same time. It can be said that at that point in time, all the information in the entire void It has become a harmonious appearance like never before. In this harmonious state, all the information forms a formula. I am not the only direct descendant of the void creature, and the second uncle also has his own real direct descendant after that (the current two A little princess of the Protoss was born from the sword of the Father God), we descendants call ourselves the "Answer of the Void", and the collection of all the information of the entire Void before the catastrophe is called a "calculation formula" by us. My other name is 'The Ancient Being', which means, as an [Answer], I exist in the calculation formulas of all worlds—ah, I finally remembered what words to use to describe it, Dad, Mom, now you What is in front of me is not a daughter who has really traveled from the future, but a mathematical conclusion that has been calculated, a factor that maintains an equal sign with the ontology, but is equivalent to two **existing factors... "
I continued to rack my brains, and it took a long time before I tentatively asked: "For example, it seems that in a classical mathematical environment, one plus one equals two. In the temporarily archived "moment of coordination", two 'ones' and one 'plus sign' have been determined, so even if no one has pressed the 'equal sign' key, 'two' has already been taken as an established fact, even if It hasn't appeared yet - Lin Xue and I are the 'equal sign' key, and you are the 'two' who is still doomed even if you were not born? "
"Probably so, but I need to correct it: the cataclysm of the void is the 'equal sign'" you and my mother are the hand that presses the equal sign key." Is that 'two'? The real Chen Xiaoxue is the 'two' I am 'equal to two' I on the left side of this formula. "
Everyone: "..."
"Just like Dad said, if you understand it from your current point of time, I am such an existence." Chen Xiaoxue made a concluding speech, "At your point of time, I have not yet been born, but my birth has already become a 100% It exists in the direction that will appear. At some point in the future, the real 'Chen Xiaoxue' will have her own life experience, but that life experience will not affect the timeline around you now, because only in the Void At the moment of the catastrophe, my life will really start, and before that moment, now, in front of you is just a calculation conclusion that has not been written on paper, just an [answer] answer instead of a complete formula, isn’t it right? Does the entire mathematical system have any impact—hey, did you get dizzy?"
I think everyone is dizzy at this moment, only Sandora can keep thinking, she looks at my cheap girl: "In other words, you are just the expected [answer] calculated in advance by this formula, the real calculation It hasn't started yet, your existence is based on theory, until the cataclysm of the void actually happens, you can't affect anything, everything you do will be corrected on a macro level—because your formula is still Didn't unfold?"
"That's it, so don't expect to get the future direction from me, the final result and so on, I don't know, and what I know may not necessarily happen. After all, a calculation formula has more than one writing method, vertical and horizontal. There are two historical trends, but the final [answer] is the same. In this regard, my little half of the future is not as good as my mother. So what, let's stop talking about this topic, my dad should go to bed soon caught."
Everyone: "..."
"Okay, okay, the last question: "My sister waved her hand, then looked at the other party with a smile, "Although there is no doubt in theory, I still want to ask, you have to come up with more definite evidence to prove your identity, This will prove all the theories you said, isn't that too much?"
"I knew you would have to ask this again." Chen Xiaoxue immediately showed a predictable expression, and looked around triumphantly, "This is all top-secret information: Qianqian's mother has a small red birthmark on her left chest. Occasionally I would bite the pillow while sleeping, and I will bite my dad in the future. There is a black spot on my dad’s right pp, ding-dang... my sister is here too? When you sleep in my dad’s pocket, you are used to grabbing a thread to prevent yourself from falling out. Because it's hard to button up the buttons, and it's even more troublesome to come out after buttoning them up. Also, my second uncle is left-handed. If you don't believe me, go back to the God Realm and ask... Well, what kind of eyes do you have? When I was young, my dad couldn't bathe his daughter. Share it? I can still share this information with my future self."
Lin Xue gritted her molars and said, "Okay, we believe it—now I finally know why I want to beat someone so much!"
I patted Lin Xue on the shoulder reassuringly: "The child needs to be disciplined, how did this girl grow up like this?"
When the eldest lady heard this, her face flushed immediately. After being freed from Chen Xiaoxue's theory bombardment, she finally realized again how exciting this earth-shattering news was: a daughter! A girl who is not yet born, but who will look like this in the future, just stands in front of me alive! What kind of concept is this for the arrogant and shy young lady? Anyway, Lin Xue, who had always been extremely powerful, was at a loss for the first time this time. Seeing the expression on her own mother's face, Chen Xiaoxue seemed to guess what the other party was thinking, and said with a smile: "Mom, don't be embarrassed, you and Dad have such a good relationship, and you can feel This is a good thing, at least for now, it seems that you can save yourself from learning how to breastfeed me... by the way, dad, when are we going home for dinner?"
Lin Xue's face was almost suffocated into purple, she suddenly grabbed my arm, as if she was going to pull a joint off with great strength: "Wood! When the time comes, can I strangle to death and be reborn?!"
This is absolutely infatuated. A young lady with a normal IQ can't say such bold words. She wants to find someone's corner to kiss me now.
Chen Xiaoxue (well, maybe now I have the position to be qualified to call her Xiaoxue directly) made a hurt look: "Mom, don't be like this, in fact, after getting along for a long time, you are used to having such a smart girl Daughter, you see, I am obedient most of the time, and I also know a little knowledge of emptiness just like my father, you must use it now, of course, what is more important is that you don’t think I am very cute, this face I like But it took a lot of effort to grow like this, when I was a child, I looked for pictures of movie stars when I was free, and I looked in the mirror every morning—hey, it’s so cute!"
I:"… "
Regarding Chen Xiaoxue, a strange little girl that I don’t know how to classify, in the end, Sandora and I unanimously decided to acquiesce in this fait accompli, because I’m afraid the most advanced scientists can’t sort out the state of this girl in different timelines, let alone Not to mention understanding the causal relationship between her and the Void Cataclysm, I just thought that there was a strange daughter in my family, and I was used to similar things anyway. Of course, when I have time in the future, I still need to learn about things I don't know with her. Now that the fleet has embarked on the journey home, it doesn’t take much time to go back to the shadow space. The only troublesome problem is how to deal with the thousands of abyssal warships that have come over. In Xiaoxue’s words, they are all “for Dad.” Gift" Now this gift is burning my hands.
There are more than 300 abyssal warships of the Eternal class and motherships/aircraft carriers of the same class, the total number of medium-sized main battleships such as the expedition class is five to six thousand, and the number of remaining support warships and special service ships is about 2,000. The individual fighters and small spaceships such as assault ships and frigates gathered in the mothership Ganaku are not counted. These warships add up to a large-scale army. Such a large number of abyssalized spaceships must be docked in the shadow space , It was an unprecedented event, and along with this group of fleets came hundreds of thousands of fallen apostle soldiers and countless war puppets: all of them were covered in black smoke.
I think if they landed carelessly on the star port, the scene must be very spectacular. The first unlucky person who landed may be cut into four or five hundred pieces by Vega before Sandora and I can react, and then dip a small piece every day. Eat with helium three...
We have informed the headquarters of what happened here. Of course, the officers of the Shadow Fortress will not have any objection to the emperor's decision, but they also raised the issue of letting the fallen apostle army land in the capital, which will cause panic among others However, although there are now two or three fallen apostles in the empire, three people and 300,000 people are not the same concept. In the end, Sandora and I tentatively decided to let these fallen apostle fleets land in the shadow space. The planet can be directly used as a colony planet before it is equipped with weapons, and the "rebel fleet" of the fallen apostles is temporarily docked there.
Chen Xiaoxue never stopped talking along the way, she was introducing her heroic experience to us with great interest (in fact, it should be the heroic experience of the real Chen Xiaoxue in the future, but the relationship between her and the original is a projection relationship, so it’s okay to say so. Wrong), and the question that everyone cares about: how did she appear in front of us in a 'projected' state from the future.
"At some point in the future, I'm a researcher, and I'm particularly interested in the history before the Void Cataclysm, so I and Chen Xiaoqian—yes, Dad, your level of naming is here, it's you and Qianqian's mother's daughter is one year younger than me. Chen Xiaoqian and I are studying how to go back to before the cataclysm. If the catastrophe is regarded as an equal part of a formula, then I and the children of other void creatures They are all the results of one side of the equal sign, and the other side of the equal sign corresponds to our calculation formula. Because of the irreversibility of the catastrophe, if the result goes directly to the opposite side of the equal sign, the formula will collapse. That is to say, we cannot let ourselves The main body passes through the node of Void Cataclysm. My sister has a broad mind. She said that since the things on both sides of the equal sign cannot be interchanged at will, let one side be deformed, just like "two plus two" and "two times times Two' is a concept. The vertical and horizontal formulas can get the same results. Both decimal points and fractions can be used to represent non-integer numbers. By changing the form of the formula on one side of the equal sign, it can be integrated from a bunch of scattered data into Extremely similar to the 〖answer〗 answer - but we can't adjust the formula by ourselves, so we have to use other people's hands, and we need a group of easy-to-use idiots to perform a series of very complicated operations, so that they can foolishly induce me 'come out… "
This should be enough shocking news, at least Sandora's face changed drastically in front of this news.
In other words... the two children of the future designed a huge trap just to satisfy their own curiosity. Those fallen apostles were just tools for the two of them. "It was a scam from the beginning, just to let Chen Xiaoxue's projection be born before the Void Cataclysm!
