Lu Zhou originally thought that the plot would end here, but he didn't expect that the gameend icon did not float out of the field of vision as he expected, so that he didn't even know if he had completed the synchronization of the void memory and browsed all the clues in this memory.

With Dr. Ryan's departure and the Archon announcing the dissolution of the meeting, the clues about the oracle are interrupted here, and there seems to be no follow-up to the plot.

After leaving the conference hall, Lu Zhou followed General Sainz back to the station, and after returning the equipment, he applied to leave the team, and wandered aimlessly around the world on a railroad.

Although the class barrier is strong, the world is unexpectedly more prosperous and complex than he imagined.

In this circular world, there are industrial zones dedicated to the production of consumer goods, commercial zones that cater to the shopping and entertainment needs of citizens, as well as college zones, planting zones, high- and low-density residential areas, natural landscape reserves, and more.

And the people who live here don't have to work very hard to enjoy a relatively prosperous life. And because the income of the same class is relatively equal, and there is almost no communication between different classes, the gap between the rich and the poor does not seem to be obvious here, and everyone lives in their own utopia without any trouble.

As for the currency that prevails here, it is something that is translated as credits.

Because of the inheritance of the property of the upper class, this soldier named Reinhardt can be regarded as making a windfall, and because of his outstanding performance in the operation, he has been appreciated by his superiors, and most of his future "human" life is prosperous.

Not paying much attention to these minutiae, Lu Zhou went straight to the academy district and found the nearest library on the map.

However, to his disappointment, as he had guessed, many of the deeper information, such as specific techniques and knowledge, had been blurred out of this memory.

When you open the book, you can only see a vague fog, and the same is true for looking up relevant materials on the Internet, too esoteric knowledge is not recorded in this memory at all, and the more you dig deeper, the more you can feel the thinness of its content.

It's like a dream, you can only see abstract outlines, and you can't dig deep at all.

If he just follows the plot all the way, he may not feel that this is a dream at all, but once his behavior is no longer in accordance with the rules, he can touch the invisible wall everywhere.

At this moment, he is like Michael DiSanta who opened up the finale in GTA5, wandering aimlessly through the streets of Los Santos, sightseeing the customs and customs here, while looking for the "easter eggs" that I don't know exist.

But for now, at least, he didn't find any more clues.

Aside from a large bounty, Dr. Lane left him with a lot of suspense about the "Scourge" and that high civilization.

But what exactly is a natural disaster?

At this point, the story seems to be over......

……

Lu Zhou, who took off his helmet and sat up from the bed, took a deep breath of the cold air in the underground laboratory as if to cool down his overheated brain.

Controlling the drone, Xiao Ai staggered to his side, and a line of text bounced out of the small hanging TV.

[Master, do you need me to pour you a glass of water?] 0.0】

Lu Zhou: "Well, please. ”

The mechanical arm on the side of the wall began to move, and soon handed the cup containing cold water to Lu Zhou.

Taking the cup and drinking it, Lu Zhou pondered for a while, and then suddenly spoke.

"Xiao Ai."

Xiao Ai: [What's wrong?] 】

Lu Zhou: "In your database, is there any information about the Jialan civilization?" I mean...... Except for the one from the Void Memories. ”

Xiao Ai: [It doesn't seem to be a ...... What's the matter? ┌|*｀|┘】

That's right.

Lu Zhou thought for a moment and shook his head.

“…… It's nothing. ”

With that, Lu Zhou stood up and walked in the direction of the elevator.

……

The memories of the void are over for the time being.

However, the suspense left behind still lingers in Lu Zhou's mind.

What is that natural disaster that terrifies civilizations even higher than the Jialan civilization?

What kind of crisis can be called unprecedented?

What the hell is that strange drop flying to the center of the galaxy trying to do?

Back in the dean's office, Lu Zhou, who was sitting at the desk, took out the notebook he always carried with him to record his inspiration and recorded his findings.

The pen stopped, his index finger lightly tapped on the notebook, and after thinking for a moment, Lu Zhou chewed on what he had heard from that memory over and over again.

"Natural Disaster......

This is obviously a translated word, and in the Jialan civilization or the civilization that is higher than the Jialan civilization, there should be other corresponding phrases.

In academic research, the most taboo thing is to take the second-hand materials translated by others to conduct research, not to mention that the content he sees is already third-hand information.

However, it was almost impossible to study the original meaning of the oracle, and the memory sent to him by the system had translated all languages except mood particles into Chinese that he could understand.

What's more, with the current level of science and technology of human civilization, I am afraid that it will be difficult to translate the content of the oracle.

"The only thing that can be determined now is that the system is definitely not a ...... sent by the Jialan civilization."

With the morality of the Jialan civilization, even if human civilization is discovered, I am afraid it will not be taken seriously.

Not to mention the behavior of the national level, even if it is a corporate behavior, it is also necessary to consider the costs and benefits, let alone rise to the level of the entire civilization.

Aesthetic differences aside, compared to other planets in the universe, except for an atmospheric environment, the resources on Earth are really not very abundant, and it is much more difficult to develop than other planets with low gravity and no atmospheric environment.

It is hard to imagine that a civilization that can create a world ring will be obsessed with terrestrial planets. Whether it requires gas resources or fresh water, it can be collected from specialized glacial or gaseous planets, and it is far more efficient, and even eliminates the need for a series of processing procedures such as "purification".

Not to mention spending so much effort to help a group of "ants" improve technology and improve their lives.

This kind of behavior that only a foreigner would do is more like something that a "higher civilization" that emits a strange drop to warn other civilizations might do.

However, this goes back to the original question.

What is the purpose of that higher civilization?

Or -

Are they the so-called void?

After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have a clue, so Lu Zhou had to record this series of speculations for the time being.

Everything has a sequence, and apparently the work on the 750GeV signal is far more urgent than the exploration of the secrets of the Void and the Strange Drops.

Now the entire physics community is expecting him to come up with enough surprising clues that he has to give a little confidence to those who believe in him, even if he doesn't think about himself.

After hesitating for a while, Lu Zhou finally took out his mobile phone, made several calls, and contacted the person in charge of the "Ali Plan" - Professor Zhang Tianming, a researcher at the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The gravitational-wave observatory in Tibet, which began construction in 2017 and was first tested in 2020, is probably the highest original gravitational-wave observatory in the world.

Although there was no great hope, Lu Zhou still asked Professor Zhang for gravitational wave observation data.

Even if it's a pastime to pass the time at leisure.

It's better to do something than nothing.
