Chapter 212: The Secret of the Czero Race

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

Unlike the Milky Way civilizations that had just arrived at the Silver Heart Black Hole through the hyperspace channel, Li Wenyuan’s research spaceship had been here for several months.

His engine was very efficient in hyperspace, and the long hyperspace from the edge of the galaxy to the vicinity of the Silver Heart Black Hole was just a short distraction for him.

However, this did not mean that he had explored the entire Silver Heart Black Hole and the super megastructure of the Outer Stargate—Silver Heart World surrounding the Black Hole in just a few months.

It was better to say that he hadn’t explored much at all. Even with a large number of research spaceships working overtime here, he hadn’t even explored 1% of the area.

Unlike exploring an empty galaxy, the Eternal World was designed to accommodate the entire Milky Way’s lifeforms. Every piece of land had a complete ecological function, as well as various buildings with different functions.

Even though the Eternal World was not perfect and only had 40% of its capacity, there was still a part of it that belonged to Crossing the Galaxy Gate.

However, in Li Wenyuan’s opinion, this incomplete world was more than enough to accommodate all the known civilizations in the Milky Way.

He couldn’t even be sure if there were any native lifeforms on this incomplete super megastructure because he felt that it wasn’t impossible for a group of native lifeforms to be placed on this super megastructure.

Fortunately, the carpet scan was not without results.

Although the Eternal World was huge, humans seemed to have mobilized the power of their entire civilization. It was likely that they were building the Eternal World while using it.

Such a situation almost caused human ruins to be everywhere.

There were many traces left behind by humans in the Eternal World. There were even traces of a large number of creatures’ temporary activities. Although these traces had faded over a long period of time, one could still see the style of humans.

From the looks of it, it was just as the introduction of this super megastructure had said. Humans had once thought of getting drunk on the Eternal World.

After all, exploring the Silver Heart was not an easy task, and humans also had the black technology Curtain, which could even cover the entire Milky Way.

If he used the Curtain to envelop the Silver Heart Black Hole and built a world on the Black Hole that could live to the end of time, then it seemed like a good choice to continue being intoxicated.

“But what do humans know?” Li Wenyuan recalled the records of the Eternal World.

“We have also thought of escaping and living an endless life of depravity, but such a choice has long been proven to be impossible…”

It sounded as if humans had somehow learned about the past and had no choice but to give up on this path that had been proven to be impossible.

Combined with the brief history of mankind that he learned from the Observation Terminal, the source of all the changes seemed to point to the Black Hole.

“In the end, do I still have to wait for the nomination? I hope I have a chance too. Otherwise, I can only chase after humans and ask…”

Li Wenyuan looked forward to learning the secret of the Black Hole one day in the future. He was very curious about the existence that was suspected to live in the Black Hole and emit a nomination.

He returned his gaze to the Eternal World. According to the ruins that Li Wenyuan had explored so far, humans had conducted research in many different fields here, covering almost all aspects.

For example, he had seen many familiar obelisk-shaped buildings along the way. He had seen the same thing in the Watcher’s Holy Land.

However, there were still some differences. The obelisk here did not have any memorial meaning. It was purely an experimental radiation extractor.

Its base was hundreds of thousands of kilometers below the Eternal World, and its purpose was to absorb the radiation of the Silver Heart Black Hole and convert it into energy to maintain the operation of the super megastructure.

However, this kind of building was not used much. According to the records, humans felt that this kind of use was too stupid and inefficient, so they put it in the cold palace.

However, during Li Wenyuan’s exploration of these buildings, the focus was not on the buildings themselves, but the logs that accompanied these buildings.

Those logs were recorded by the researchers here, and they were filled with a strong personal style.

He wasn’t interested in reading it at first, but he soon noticed the content mentioned in the diary and quickly paid attention to it.

[ Star Era 3122, weather… Supernova Explosion in Galaxy XH386 ]

[ When I was transferred here from my post, I found out that we had already started such a big project. ]

[ You can apply for the latest experimental equipment and materials here. It’s just that the transportation time is a little long, but what could be more interesting than conducting an intense experiment? ]

[ I understand the logic behind this, but why is the Black Hole in the Silver Heart so big? ]

[ Star Era 3123, abnormal disturbance of the B25 nebula ]

[ The experimental data is normal. It’s a little boring. Does anyone really think that this obelisk-like converter is very efficient? ]

[ Speaking of which, according to the gossip of my friends, the higher-ups deliberately made the Black Hole so big in order to further strengthen the supermassive Black Hole quantum slingshot… ]

[ Research on the Czero race once discovered that the source of psionic power seemed to point to every Black Hole, especially the Silver Heart Black Hole. ]

[ Using the power of the void realm recklessly will cause the Silver Heart Black Hole to expand. That psionic energy doesn’t seem to be created of things. Its essence still comes from the physical universe. ]

[ In order to make the Black Hole the size it needs, I heard that there are already several groups of people entering and exiting the void realm to extract psionic power… How pitiful. ]

[ Star Era 3124, UGB Galaxy Collision ]

[ It’s been another year of work. I’m already numb. ]

[ Looking at this super Black Hole every day, I always think of the Czero race from time to time. ]

[ To a certain extent, they are the true pioneer civilization in this galaxy. In a galaxy where there are almost no intelligent creatures, they can be considered one of the few powerful strength factions. ]

[ However, when we met, they were already close to extinction. The reason was very simple—they died in the internal war. ]

[ Someone from the Czero race wants to use the void realm endlessly, even if it means expanding the Silver Heart Black Hole to destroy the Milky Way. ]

[ We learned how to expand the Black Hole from this group of people. It turns out that they are indeed very talented. They are probably the race that is most proficient in using psionic power other than us. ]

[ They can even greatly enhance their compatriots by burning themselves, a method that only exists in novels. Just the thought that the purple dust is actually their ashes makes my scalp tingle. ]

[ Although 1 think it’s not impossible for us to do something similar, there’s no need for such a thing. We’ve never thought of destroying the Milky Way. ]

[ However, the Czero race’s method of self-destructing to stop the Silver Heart Black Hole from expanding was quite sincere. They did stop the Silver Heart from expanding due to frequent psionic activity. ]

There were a few small logs of him talking to himself, and there were many mentions of the Czero race that had long been annihilated in the long river of history, leaving only ashes.

Back in the Watcher’s Holy Land, Li Wenyuan had seen the last moment of the Czero race’s destruction through the psionic crystals left behind by humans.

At that time, the records mentioned that the Czero race had stopped a crisis that could destroy the AAilky Way. Now, it seemed that it was the crisis of the Silver Heart Black Hole expansion.

The current ATilky Way civilizations would never have thought that there would be such an existential crisis in the Milky Way since ancient times.

Even if the source of the crisis was the Czero race themselves, they chose to resolve the crisis within themselves, just like the Desanur civilization that created Gray Wind, even if they would perish together.

The secret of the Czero race also reminded Li Wenyuan of the broken administration matrix.

This was because there seemed to be very few traces of the administration matrix in the Milky Way. However, from the tragic state of the custody agreement, the administration matrix should have experienced an extremely intense war.

However, no civilization in the Milky Way had discovered similar ruins. This seemed to mean that the administration matrix had chosen to digest the crisis internally. From its influence, it had indeed succeeded. Basically, no one knew.

However, this also caused the administration matrix to pay a painful price, and it was only one step away from complete destruction.

“It really looks like it’s carved from the same mold. Perhaps only this kind of spirit can be called a pioneer civilization…”

Li Wenyuan thought about it and then continued to focus on the Silver Heart Megastructure. The spaceship of the AAilky Way Civilization that followed him finally arrived.

He did not forbid other civilizations from exploring the Silver Heart, because the moment he entered the Silver Heart through hyperspace, the exploration of the Silver Heart was inevitable. Everyone knew that the Silver Heart could be entered.

As for how the Milky Way civilizations would view this super megastructure and super Black Hole, he did not care.

Perhaps the Milky Way civilizations would not be able to fully explore this super megastructure until he left the Milky Way..
