Chapter 179: The End of the Observer (2)
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After the black screen, a large number of characters appeared.
In the beginning, the lunatics of the Civilization Annihilator, who had been cursing non-stop, seemed to be completely dismissive of Li Wenyuan’s means.
They had been fighting for this for so long. How could they change their minds just because of a little bewitchment?
However, as more and more runes appeared, their clamoring stopped. The emotions in their eyes changed countless times before finally returning to silence.
Those characters were very unfamiliar to the Milky Way, but they were very familiar to the Civilization Annihilator.
They had also seen this kind of text in the place where they found the Curtain Penetrometer. At that time, they thought it was some kind of symbolic religious symbol.
However, as the secrets of the Curtain Penetrometer were analyzed, they learned that this powerful relic came from the Enlightened Ones. Then, those so-called religious symbols were very likely to be the words of the Enlightened Ones.
They attached great importance to this because this way, they could understand the language, habits, customs, and even social forms of the Enlightened Ones through words. From there, they could obtain more inheritances of the Enlightened Ones.
However, because the number of characters was too small, they could not understand the meaning of these words at all.
However, every citizen of the Civilization Annihilator had memorized the shape of the runes so that they could quickly realize that it was related to the Enlightened Ones when they discovered similar runes.
And now, among the characters on the screen, they saw the familiar shapes of the words that were imprinted in their instincts. They were even clearly displayed in front of them.
They didn’t recognize 99% of them, but the remaining almost identical runes were enough for them to determine what they were.
If there were this many characters, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to analyze the meaning of the words of the Enlightened Ones. It wouldn’t be impossible for them to use this to be closer to the Enlightened Ones.
However, it was obvious that this also meant one thing-how could an heir not know the words of the person he inherited?
The orthodoxy of the Enlightened Ones that they had boasted of for so long was completely shattered this time.
If they could deceive themselves with the excuse that the Curtain Penetrometer could not recognize people before, they had now completely recognized their identity.
However, it was different from the previous madness. After their identities were revealed, they did not become even more furious or self-hypnotized.
Now, every Civilization Annihilator had quieted down, carefully reading the translation that matched the words of the Enlightened Ones on the screen.
Those were parts of the curtain theory. The complete curtain theory had extremely complicated models and introductions. For the convenience of viewing, Li Wenyuan only selected the important parts.
One of them was an expected direction known as the Curtain Plan, which aimed to place the entire galaxy under the protection of the Curtain. According to the requirements of the curtain theory, there was a fake Milky Way outside the Curtain for show.
In fact, when Li Wenyuan discovered that the Civilization Annihilator was the lucky guy who picked up the Curtain Penetrometer, he had already guessed why the civilization would change their friendly attitude and become so crazy.
At first, he could not understand why a civilization would be willing to believe that the Milky Way outside was real. However, after seeing the Civilization Annihilator, which had been refined over thousands of years, he understood that this civilization was only living for one goal.
That was to achieve a greater cause than the Enlightened Ones.
They all didn’t know the purpose of the Curtain, but they all believe that the cage of the world, and firmly believed that the way of mass suicide could get them out of there.
What could be greater than the cause of the Enlightened Ones? Of course, it was to lead the entire Milky Way out of this cage!
But was the Curtain really a cage?
The words on the big screen came and went quickly. After the invasion, the big screen did not return to the passionate speech from before, but it was still a black screen.
However, the content was enough for the Civilization Annihilator to understand one thing.
Perhaps they had been mistaken from the beginning. The curtain was not a cage but a protection.
After their orthodoxy was shattered, the second thing that was shattered was the goal that they had always been moving forward towards.
Their civilization had already integrated this goal into the depths of their souls, and after it shattered, their path of civilization would also end there.
But…
“Impossible!” With a shout, the leader of the Civilization Annihilator burst out and transmitted his voice to everyone through the megaphones all over the planet.
“Our actions will definitely not be wrong! Even if everyone doesn’t understand us, we will still walk on firmly!”
His voice was so infectious that it revived the people whose hearts of belief had been shattered for a short while. Even though it was just a last glimmer of light, it still lit up the gloomy world of the Cradle temporarily and ignited the fervent cheers.
Such a scene made Li Wenyuan wonder if they wouldn’t shed tears until they saw the coffin. They would only admit it if the humans personally gave them an explanation.
However, after looking at the leader, Li Wenyuan revealed a surprised expression.
Although his actions were full of madness and his voice was full of bewitchment, his expression was very calm. He was not as crazy as he imagined.
When he looked at the people again, Li Wenyuan also realized that although they were fanatical, their eyes were not passionate. Instead, they were unprecedentedly calm, even with a hint of peace.
They knew everything, and they also realized the truth and reality.
However, the civilization had reached this day, and the long-term and firm cohesion had infected everyone’s blood.
Even if they were wrong, they would never admit it.
After hearing the leader’s words, everyone had a tacit understanding. After making a few hand gestures, they sat down on the spot and gathered together in countless groups.
At this moment, they seemed to have returned to the primitive times. A group of people gathered together and discussed what those huge planets in the sky were.
The leader of the Civilization Annihilator also took out a strange device that looked like a tube sealed with a spiral structure.
This was a suicide device that controlled all of their lives. Once activated, everyone’s genes would collapse at the same time and they would die on the spot.
This scene seemed familiar.
An inexplicable premonition made the leader of the Civilization Annihilator look up at the sky. He passed through countless stars and stared at the leader of the Pyro Alliance, who was also looking up at the sky for some reason.
They did not look at each other, but it was as if they were facing each other.
“We are the Civilization Annihilator! This path is not over yet. We will personally verify what the truth at the end is!”
With the activation of the device, all the main species of the Civilization Annihilator collapsed at the same time.
The pain did not affect them at all. They were still sitting together, looking at each other until they turned into a pool of organic liquid.
The moment their consciousness dissipated, they seemed to have really returned to the past. Wearing primitive clothes, they looked curiously at the sky for the first time.
And the universe was still operating normally, just like it had always been..
