Star Railway: Building a Foundation from the Beginning

"Huh, in the last thirty seconds before Yellowstone's destruction, the Drifter has made observations of all future possibilities, and has traversed everything to find the optimal solution?"

"Feeling...... You can compete with Bo Zhizun for the position of knowledge. "

"I don't understand the Foundation's tech tree at all - looking at the time in the archives, they haven't gone into space yet, but they have computers that are no less than today's. What's even crazier is that they even spawned and took control of a singularity!"

"It's not crazy, my friend, compared to restarting the universe. "

"It's not a star god, it's not divinity, and there's no reality bender involved...... It's really crazy enough, and it's like the raving of the middle two diseases and the babbling of the mentally ill. "

......

Looking at the words on the screen without the slightest ambiguity, and then thinking of the numbers that have been going on and on, Alice suddenly realized that everything was actually predestined.

The current messages are all radio waves that have been delayed by time, and they have long been sent by the drifters, flowing slowly with time.

What the Wanderers know is a fantasy that exists in the future, vague and uncertain, and all possibilities are marked, but they have to wait for them to transform them into reality.

The Wanderers they know are phantoms of the past, and the illusions will eventually dissipate.

And now, the time has come.

It's like a supernova explosion, and after a period of brightness, it inevitably goes dark.

"I remembered......"

"No wonder I've always felt the name a little familiar, you're the fabled, former unified AIC-"

[Yes, I was the last AIC that was shut down after the implementation of the Courier program during the Heavy Rain Era.] 】

[That is to say, dear Alice, long before your story took place, my story was over. 】

[However, it is a miracle that the delayed transmission of telecommunications in the outer regions has allowed me to spend this last time with 19 of you.] 】

Alice looked at the terminal in her hand in silence.

Snowflakes flutter in the wind, fall on the screen and shell, and are blown away by a gust of wind.

She raised her hand, shook her gloves, and patted the snow off her body.

At that moment, she heard a cry coming from beside her.

The helmet, which had been used for protection, was now in the way, and Christina had to unseal it and remove the large cover to clear her tears and snot.

She cried and cleaned up while sobbing:

"How do you ...... like this?"

It's really hard for her.

She had just come out of the grief of Tommy's death, and she had pieced together a fragmented state of mind, and before the wounds had had time to heal, she was about to face another parting.

For her, in a short period of time, the world has changed, unrecognizable, no longer familiar, beyond recognition.

[Don't be sad, dear Christina. It was meant from the start. 】

[In this story, many things are predestined:]

[For example, you will find all the information you need, for example, you will reach Yellowstone.] 】

Doomed......

Alice repeated the word one more time.

In other words, no matter how much the drifter admonished, she would always insist on going to Yellowstone.

Countless possibilities converge on this node.

No wonder the Drifter only mentioned it at the time.

Instead of delaying time and causing conflicts, it is better to respect and let yourself personally go to the Yellowstone Ruins "Park" to meet the wall, and the dream will be shattered.

Sure enough, as soon as this idea popped up in her mind, a corresponding explanation appeared on her personal terminal:

[Dear Alice, in all the futures, I mean all, you have not once heeded my advice to stop traveling to Yellowstone. 】

[This is a time that is bound to be wasted, but seeing the current situation of Yellowstone with your own eyes does make you understand a lot, doesn't it?]

Otherwise, there will always be a defect in your middle. 】

Alice: "......"

[For example, your world is destined to be powerless. 】

"What does that mean?" Alice raised an eyebrow.

Isn't it obvious?

Only the Antarctic site is still operating, and human civilization can be considered extinct.

The earth is strong, and there is no major change in the waves of reality reconstruction and reality collapse.

[Look up, Alice, Christina.] 】

And so they did.

On the gray-black canopy, the pale stars hung low, and the faint light scattered sparsely throughout the sky.

- Today's stars, even less.

Unlike Christina, who only remembers heavy rain when she was born, Christina ushered in the era of heavy snow a few days after the rain ended.

Alice knew what a normal starry sky looked like.

When she wasn't called 105, she was just an ordinary happy girl.

She knew that the light of modernity, which belonged to human civilization, would overshadow the light of the stars, turning the originally brilliant and jewel-decorated night sky into a dead silence.

Because of this, she and her classmates go camping in the countryside, in the woods, by the lake, in the meadows...... Looking up at the starry sky, the stargazers are splendid, and the universe is infinite.

The light emitted by distant stars takes as little as a few years to tens of billions of years to illuminate the night sky of the Earth from somewhere in the universe.

The length of a day and night is too short compared to the lifetime of a star and the time it takes for light to propagate.

It is precisely because of this that the ancients thousands of years ago did not change much from the starry sky seen by modern people.

It's common sense and part of the norm.

But why......

[Do you see those stars?]

Their existence gives you the illusion that the universe still exists. 】

But you know, Alice. 】

[That's the light of dead stars thousands of years ago.] 】

[You can still see them only because of the distance, because of the time that has been delayed - that's not a real, real-time image. 】

You can't see the whole universe. It's okay, I'll tell you :]

[The entire observable universe has burned out, leaving only the Earth alone.] 】

[Now, this faint blue point of light, where you and I stand, is the last breath of the universe. 】

......

There is no doubt that the Foundation has once again shocked all audiences.

Previously, the audience's perception of the Foundation was mostly anchored by concepts such as the ancient and powerful fleet multiverse traveling through time and space.

It is not that no one has doubted that the Foundation has the power to destroy the universe without the help of divinity.

- The power that can restart the universe after the end of the world can also be used to completely destroy the universe.

However, most people subconsciously ignore this issue, believing that the Foundation is not enough.

Until this time.

"???" (read violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Le. "

"Huh, the universe is gone?"

"Can a man-made paradox really exist stably and burn the entire universe?"

"I used to think that the Foundation's style was very much in line with the fate of preservation and intellect, but now it seems that destruction is not far behind. "

"Foundation: Since human civilization doesn't exist, let's stop playing. "

"There is no doubt that even if the Foundation knows that there are alien civilizations in this universe, it will restart the whole universe because of the end of the earth, various restart plans are ineffective. "

Even Himeko, who had been stationed on the train, didn't hold back, and the coffee in her hand was not stable for a while, spilling on the floor, making Pam who was mopping the floor jump.

Smiling awkwardly, Himeko bent down to clean up, then leaned back on the couch.

This time, she plans to wait for the file to end before drinking the rest of the coffee.

At this moment, it was just her and a Pam in the train.

After Walter Yang and the others entered the fairy boat, they couldn't be contacted at all, and it seemed that the little girl of the star core hunter was the ghost.

Dan Heng also quietly touched the fairy boat, and before leaving, he said that he wanted to end some things and bear some responsibility for the sins of his previous life.

Of course, there was no news after that.

Before.

Even if she was alone on the train, she could still know where Walter and the young people had gone from the group chat, and look at the various photos taken by Little March.

Later, there was an extra Bai Xuan in the car who always couldn't wake up.

Now, Xiao Baixuan has also woken up.

Silently reviewing her pioneering career, Himeko's mind moved slightly, and she manipulated the terminal to wake up the picture.

- She and Pam had already received the gift from Esta, but Danheng had left early and had not received it.

She became more and more curious about the Black Hole Forge to see what the Foundation had come up with.

......

At this time, Alice completely understood why the goal of this mission was to restart the universe.

This is not some kind of arrogance on the part of the Foundation, but a precise summary based on an accurate understanding of the facts and the current situation.

"The naked singularity must be encapsulated back into the event horizon after application, otherwise there will be a paradox......"

And this paradox will ignore the limitations of the structure of time and space and act on the entire universe.

How ...... is this

[Yes, you understand. 】

[The naked singularity, which is out of the horizon of events, but not fully exposed, is in a paradox of existence in the sense of a law, and it needs to maintain its own existence. 】

[To do this, it draws time radiation from the entire universe and surrounds it.] 】

[This is why time radiation becomes thinner, and because of this, the farther away from the black hole furnace, the more time will fall into the future at an exponential rate. 】[]

[Think about it, if you have been in the Outlands for decades, what would happen to a place tens of thousands of kilometers away, light years, or even tens of thousands of light years from Earth?]

[The whole universe is dead, dear Alice. 】

[Your trip was not to save the world in the first place. 】

Alice: "...... I've guessed that. "

It's like when you reinstall a computer system, everything that was before is erased.

All the Foundation can do is try to retain more information, so that the restarted universe can develop according to the trajectory that they have had again.

But this time, there will be no more heavy rain, and there will be no more big fading.

There will be no black hole furnace that incinerates the universe.

It's certainly not the salvation in a superhero movie.

It's about destruction and rebirth.

[There are still some destined things.] While they are destined to happen, the meaning they represent 930 is not necessarily the same all the time. Like fire. 】

[Alice, Christina, there will be fire next, and this teleportation has become the last straw that crushes the world. 】

It is for this reason that you will see the flames rising from the earth, which you have been looking forward to, the return of red. 】

[The flame will come, and then the world will be burned. 】

You will be the only two remaining human beings in the world, and even life. 】

[It's a foregone conclusion.] 】

However, your choices can determine what kind of fire this flame is. 】

It can be the fire of destruction, which leads the whole world into the abyss of no return, or it can be the fire of nirvana, which burns up the whole world but brings hope to the new world. 】

"What does that mean?"

Alice was puzzled.

How did it become a riddler again at a critical moment......

But Christina, on the other hand, looked calm, and seemed unacprising, and when her cheeks ached a little from the sleet, she silently put on her helmet.

It seems that the message sent by the drifter is a code word that only Christina can understand.

Alice didn't dwell on.

Time is coming to an end, and since the Drifter has no intention of saying it at this time, it also means that such a future is predestined.

Even if she asked, the drifter wouldn't answer.

Then don't think about it.

[It's all up to you. 】

I can't make you understand in words right now, but when you reach the Black Hole Furnace, you will understand what I mean. 】

I have seen thousands of you and witnessed the end of all of you. 】

[But after all, those are rehearsals, prophecies, fictional parallel possibilities that have not yet happened in this life.] 】

For you, only the path under your feet is real. 】

Whatever you choose, it is your freedom, but remember that your world is shattered and there is no hope of salvation. 】

The choices you have made are not for the sake of this world, but for the sake of a greater future. 】

[My circuit is melting.] I don't have time. Honey, Alice, and Christina. 】

[I really want to join you, as the last human and the last AIC in this universe, to witness the end of this world. 】

[But it has come to this, and we can't start all over again.] 】

[Goodbye.] 】

[Dear, Alice, and Christina.] 】

[It's an honor to meet you at the end.] 】。
