Chapter 257 The Last Life
Chapter 257 The Last Life
Despite the slim chance, Xu still tried.
He sent out a small fleet.
By remote control.
Control the fleet and fly towards the high walls of the graveyard of civilization.
Try to cross over, try to escape, and perform the feat of breaking free from the cage.
The final result is——
"!!!", a violent explosion broke out in the starry sky. The flashing radiating cross was so conspicuous in the dark space and was broken up by the high wall.
Xu Xi stared at the starry sky quietly, his expression unchanged.
"As expected, I failed..."
"That invisible blockade completely blocks the way out for conventional navigation. Only higher-level space or dimensional technology can break through its barriers."
"Warp drive, dimension jump, or the legendary time teleportation."
"Without these relevant technologies, we can only wait for hopeless extinction."
Maybe he turned around.
Witnessing the high walls of the cage with his own eyes made him more determined to build a curvature engine and take Ellie away from this dead starry sky.
The world out there isn't necessarily safe.
But staying in the cage will inevitably lead to danger.
…
[You have reached the end of the starry sky]
[It's vast, magnificent, and just as spectacular as you expected]
[The twinkling stars are like thousands of dazzling eyes, witnessing the flow and rotation of nebulae, as well as the rise and fall of civilizations]
[You stand at the end of civilization, witnessing the invisible high wall, and your vigilance against the mastermind behind the scenes rises several levels]
[You know very well that the unimpeded access over the past few hundred years does not mean that the mastermind behind the scenes is incompetent, but that the other party never pays attention to the insects in the cage.]
[This is your chance, the only opportunity to take Elle away]
[Simulation of the 601st year, you are 620 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 598 years]
[Under your command, the entire fleet is pushed back, keeping a certain distance from the space wall to prevent any accidents.]
"Ellie, what do you think?"
“You mean…?”
"That wall separates the inside and outside. Don't you think it's amazing?"
"I feel inferior to the master."
Elle replied in a calm tone.
She always is.
…
[Simulation of the 621st year, you are 640 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 618 years]
[You have made a breakthrough in your research, and you have glimpsed the dawn of curvature navigation]
[To celebrate, you took a rare day off and cooked a meal yourself. Ailei looked at your glowing food and began to doubt the machine again.]
[Simulation of the 655th year, you are 674 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 652 years]
[You begin to wait for the attack of the neutron battle star]
[Simulation of the 657th year, you are 676 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 654 years]
[Two and a half years later, the Neutron Battle Star appeared again. This time, you grabbed Elly's hand in advance and observed more information with Elly's special perspective.]
The star-studded universe suddenly twisted.
The perspective is raised.
Rising from a tiny point to infinite vastness.
From that special perspective, Xu Xi saw a light more powerful than the sun, ravaging the universe at a speed faster than the speed of light, shattering everything in its path.
Speed, direction, logic of action, target sequence, trajectory route.
All all.
They were all remembered by Ailei's machine soul.
"It's really spectacular." Finally, Xu Xi faced the impact of the huge star calmly. He opened his eyes wide, trying to see the neutron battle star clearly.
But the speed of the neutron star is too fast.
Xu Xi didn't see anything before his body was torn apart.
…
You died and came back to life
This is your ninth death
[You feel sad. Of the ten lives you kept as a trump card, only the last one remains.]
[You are very satisfied with the effect of Ten Deaths. It is your resurrection that has led to your current achievements.]
[You have successfully mastered a large number of scientific theories. They are the rules of the universe and the essential order of all things. Even the advancement of the extraordinary system can learn a thing or two from them.]
[Simulation of the 660th year, you are 679 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 657 years]
[With the resonance of machine souls over the years and Elle's continuous shared observation, you finally grasped the light of hope and began to make prototypes of the curvature engine, antimatter engine, and element decay engine.]
[Time constraints make your tolerance for error extremely low]
[To this end, you must cherish every experimental opportunity to create a truly feasible miracle]
[Simulation of the 662nd year, you are 681 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 659 years]
【You start to pay attention to your physical health】
[Even though you know that a genetically modified body will not be easily injured or sick, you only have one life left and you are unwilling to take the risk]
[Before Elle escapes from the cage, you don't want to die no matter what]
Xu Xi began to rest.
For the past few hundred years, he has been busy.
In order to develop the curvature engine, for that extremely tiny, impossible miracle, he resonated with the machine soul to the point of coma, and even caused himself to be eroded.
And now.
He began to rest.
"Master, what are you doing..."
"Take a rest," the man said, and once again controlled his face to reveal a familiar and empty standard smile.
"All along, Ailei, you've been wanting me to rest, right? I've thought about it and I think I do need to rest."
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
[You try hard to keep smiling. The long-term erosion of your machine soul makes you feel more and more like a humanoid robot. But in order to prevent Elle from worrying, you try your best to show your emotions.]
[You comfort her, you just want to rest]
[Ailei said nothing. In the silence, she gently grasped your hand and placed it on top of her head.]
["Master...Aile will protect you..."]
[The trembling voice is full of determination. You remain silent for a long time, and can only soothe the restless spirit in your body by stroking your hair.]
[Simulation of the 682nd year, you are 701 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 679 years]
[The curvature engine experiment has been carried out many times. With the accumulation of resources and times, you gradually find the rules of success]
[Aile is still your right-hand man, and she cares about you even more]
"Master, please drink the soup."
"Master, please get dressed."
"Master, it's time for you to go to bed."
"Master, I will kill the dirty bugs for you."
Repeatedly and tried again and again, under the watchful eyes of Xu Xi, Ai Lei did more incredible things.
She brought the fourth type of genetic medicine to the Xu family.
After taking it, body functions and life span will increase again.
But such a change obviously could not prevent the arrival of fate.
"It's enough, Ellie."
"...Master, lunch is ready for you. Do you want Ellie to heat it up?"
"I said, that's enough."
"..."
"Ellie, there's no need to keep wasting time on things you can't do."
"..."
