Chapter 604 A Cage Without Exit, A Hell Without Redemption (33)

【Do not……】

Staring at Grand Duke Sorin, Adalbert took a few steps back. His face was already very pale after he became the dead king, but now there was an abnormal color of blood: [How is this possible... How could it be so big... ...how could there be such a large barrier... such a large cage? ! 】

[This is impossible, how much material is needed, it needs...]

His voice dropped, and Adbert lowered his head.

His eyes were blank.

He can't imagine.Even the genius alchemist, Yadbert, the genius alchemist who single-handedly created the theoretical basis for the dead king and the dead river armament, couldn't understand the starry sky when he had never seen the stars.

to understand the universe.

This is impossible - on a planet without stars, it is impossible for someone to understand what the universe is, what is the time and space that is wider than the stars!

And Ian's heart was also shaking: "What... the gravitational limit of the Terra sun?!"

"Doesn't that mean that this barrier was launched at a distance of [-] light years or even further away?!"

At the beginning, when Ian heard about the Prisoner Star Prison, he had already thought that this outrageous thing probably did not originate from the illumination of the stars or the planetary circle, but at least from the Oort cloud (an asteroid outside the solar system). Dust swarm), the radius of which may be more than a light-year in this calculation.

This is already outrageous... But according to Grand Duke Sorin's words, this barrier may be even more outrageous!

Doesn't this mean that in some places where the stars are relatively dense, there will be some barriers that are close together?

【Looked up! 】

And Grand Duke Sorin understood what the universe is. At this moment, Inaiga II's disciple scolded: 【Is this shrinking? 】

【Since you can't imagine it, I'll show it to you! 】

The Dead River Armed Forces spread out its arms, and the originally huge Terra shrank rapidly, as did the surrounding sun and eleven other planets, until the entire Terra solar system was embraced by him.

Then it was enveloped by a layer of dark prison with cracks.

This layer of dark cage is an irregular sphere, and it is constantly changing.

As Ian thought, this barrier cage is centered on Terra’s sun to its gravitational limit, not only the most extended planet, but also the Oort cloud, and even extends to a void with nothing , everything is wrapped by it.

However, it has a crack.

A crack through which light can pass.

[Have you ever thought about it, Adalbert?What do you think is the reason for the demise of pre-epoch civilization? 】

Grand Duke Sorin's voice resounded throughout the Little Garden: [The power that can make the Gazing Moon shatter like a trampled biscuit, if it hits Terra, do you think the planet under our feet can bear it? 】

[The catastrophe from the sky shook Terra, the oceans were transpired, and now only two of the five continents are left. Do you think the civilization on this planet can continue to be maintained if such a disaster happens again? 】

【Haha, I actually don’t know the answers to any of these questions—but I only know one thing! 】

[Because the Prisoner Star Prison, high above the sky, except for the sun and eleven planets inside our Terra, there are not many stars anymore! 】

[When all the stars are gone, when the cracks on the Prisoner Prison are completely repaired, our last chance will be gone]

【Since then, only the prison will last forever... This is the future we are destined to face】

It didn't take long for Grand Duke Thorin's voice to question angrily from the very beginning to exhaustion at the end.

At the end of the speech, he sighed a long time, then withdrew his hand, smashed the entire star field model of Terra, turned it into silver dust, and attributed it to the light balls surrounding him: [Actually, we have already lose]

[After Inaga died, no one could understand this anymore.Even the teacher is desperate, he can't go faster, but we can't go to Gaotian until the prison is completely sealed.]

[Can you understand?Albert? 】

He raised his head and looked at the dark sky in the subspace labyrinth. Grand Duke Thorin whispered to himself with endless melancholy: [It doesn't matter if you don't understand, I've already gotten used to it]

[So I can only try his last plan, leaving something for our civilization]

Adalbert wanted to say something - it was really hard for him to understand, whether it was the vastness and smallness of the planet, or the vastness and emptiness of the star field - he couldn't understand that the world he lived in, the sun is so Huge, compared to the great Eye of the Heavenly Father, the planet is nothing more than a small ball of marbles.

He couldn't imagine why there would be a prison bigger than the sun or even the kingdom of the sun that blocked the entire star field... He also couldn't understand why the barrier would be broken enough to swallow hundreds of thousands of suns side by side Go down the huge crack.

He couldn't understand, couldn't understand the matter itself, couldn't understand the reason of this matter, and what was even more incomprehensible was the most common thing.

——Even so.

He thought so, and murmured to himself: [Even so, isn't it big? 】

[We haven't even finished exploring the New World...why do we have to think about the distant future, hundreds of thousands of years later, things other than Terra? 】

[Even if there really is a Prisoner Star Prison, isn’t there still eleven planets?That's also eleven new worlds, since that's the case... let's talk about it later? 】

[At that time, maybe... there will always be a way, right? 】

This time, not only Grand Duke Sorin showed disappointment, but even Ian shook his head helplessly.

——Adelbert's greatest strengths and weaknesses are probably his overly optimistic attitude.

"Do not be silly."

Before Sorin opened his mouth, Ian shook his head and said: "The population and the demand for resources are increasing exponentially. Eleven planets? Not to mention how many people can live in, even if they can live, they can be used, and they are not exposed to the outside world." How many centuries can we persist in pioneering?"

"Besides, the pre-epoch civilization encountered a disaster from the sky, and we may have to encounter it... Even if there is no second disaster from the sky, are there fewer inexplicable disasters on Terra now?"

"The cage is really completed, and it will definitely cause quite a major change in the world. This is a trend that we humans cannot stop."

"It will be too late to think about it when the time comes—I am afraid that the death of civilization will end well, maybe it will be ecological extinction, and the whole world will be reduced to death..."

Speaking of this, Ian was slightly taken aback. He lowered his eyes, and suddenly the power of the dead king and the dead river flashed in his heart.

Psionic spaceship... shelter...

Or...

——the world after death? !
Grand Duke Sorin noticed the change in Ian's demeanor, and he nodded with relief: [You understand—yes, Inaiga's plan back then has become unrealistic, and I must make corresponding corrections]

[Dead Lord and other plans are the final response to deal with irresistible natural disasters in the future]

"but."

Ian's voice was extremely low, and he said hoarsely: "Who... Which civilization built the Prisoner Heaven Prison? What happened to the Moon of Observation? This is the most critical core of the problem!"

Obviously he knew so much information from Grand Duke Sorin, but Ian felt that he didn't know more—he finally understood why the star field map in the South China Sea Great Labyrinth disappeared in such a balanced manner at the same time , because just outside a star field centered on the sun, there is a cage that isolates light and is gradually spreading, covering the entire Terra star field.

- It's not that Terra survived... It's not that Terra hasn't been attacked yet and therefore hasn't been 'destroyed'.

Attack and destruction have already come!

Of course, this is not all... because there is a crack in this cage, that is, this crack, so that all living beings can still see some incomplete stars.

This proves that there is an unknown reason preventing the merging of the cages.This does not prevent the regeneration of the cage, but at least for now, Terra humans can still see some stars outside the cage.

Even, you can worry about the "natural disaster" that the "supernova explosion" outside the distant starry sky may cause to Terra.

This can even be said to be a kind of happy natural disaster.

Because of this natural disaster, perhaps due to unknown reasons, it is the last hope for Terra humans.

But even so, these stars are gradually extinguishing... and the supernova explosion is probably not the end of a normal star.

The reason is only one possibility.

—Other galaxies, other stars, are shrouded in the same prison.Even, it was not shrouded, but directly destroyed.

That's the only explanation.

There is a civilization, a force, or a biological or natural phenomenon that is putting cages on all the stars on the scale of the Milky Way, even galaxy clusters, and even the universe, and even destroying some stars.

but why? !

If there is a civilization that can do this, does it really need to imprison the stars?

[As I said, Hilliard's successor, I don't know—in fact, if you don't even know, then I really have nothing to say]

Regarding Ian's doubts, Grand Duke Thorin said slowly, as if he was trying to clean up his emotions.

Although his complexion was ugly, but because the anxiety that had been hidden in his heart for decades erupted just now, his brows and eyes were a little relaxed: [I can only tell you, just as you think, the Spirit Fire Project is to deal with the prisoner Xingtian. The plan designed to fully form the prison, it has failed, we can not build the kind of spaceship and mobile shelter]

【but!For me, that is not important anymore, the essence of the dead king is only for those citizens in my territory]

[Tera's future, I am already desperate.In the foreseeable future, the Grand Duke of Sorin will also become a battlefield of hell. In this case, I must think for all the people who believe in me, and think about a future for them]

【Even if the sky collapses and the earth collapses, the mountains collapse, the seas evaporate, and the continents capsize... I have to create a paradise for them】

【Even if this paradise is the same as hell, at least their souls can last forever】

[Heir of Hilliard, if it were you, you would be able to guess it, right?The real purpose of the Dead King's plan? 】

Under the moonlight, Ian closed his eyes.

he thought.Contact all the intelligence and information you have ever received.

He suddenly thought of the earliest ballad he heard just before entering the subspace labyrinth.

【—That's it, we've reached the end】

[In the endless and deep land of souls, at the other end of the endless and vast river of death, under the rule of the invincible dead king, a new world was born]

【Our blood and tears turned into the sea, our flesh and blood became the land, our lament rose into the sky, our despair condensed into the sun】

【The burning of our hatred is the fire that burns out the barrenness, our last breath is the wind that sweeps the world at birth】

【We will live forever in this cage with no exit, we will live forever in this hell with no redemption—only despair, hatred, pain and sorrow are with us】

Softly reciting this ballad full of pain, despair, and even curse, Ian slowly opened his eyes wide, and he has already noticed the key point: "We will live forever in this cage with no exit, and we will live forever In this hell where there is no redemption..."

——The soul can exist forever in the void, but it must be maintained in an area of ​​extreme heat and energy, and this type of area can only be realized in volcanic areas or around the sun.

——The surrounding area of ​​the sun is not realistic at all, and it is too unstable to sustain for a long time.

——However, on the planet, or to be precise, there is still a region in the planet that can meet this condition.

That is the core of the earth.

"A cage with no exit, a hell with no redemption..."

Repeating this ballad again, Ian looked at Grand Duke Thorin who was silent and floating in the air.

He said in disbelief: "It's the center of the earth!"

"You want to create a hell in the center of the earth?!"
