【Ding! You have obtained Interstellar Battleship Fleet *1, B-class Researcher *10, D-class Personnel *100.】

【Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the skill "Entropy Reversal"; when you activate this skill, you can reduce the system's overall entropy value.】

【It is generally believed that life feeds on negative entropy, discharges positive entropy, and eventually moves towards extinction. But, undoubtedly, this law, which is regarded as truth by almost everyone, does not apply to you; entropy increase or decrease, for you, is nothing more than a matter of a thought.】

【If considered from the perspective of "space-time", you can achieve an effect similar to time reversal, but this is not true time reversal.】

【Congratulations, you are about to become a Level 2 Reality Bender.】

【Note: A certain crew member in the "Astral Express" is the leader of "Entropy Reversal", but you must have already known this; this is just a hint.】

【Now, you can prepare to deploy the next containment object.】

【Of course, you can also popularize other aspects of the Foundation to the world, including but not limited to Foundation anecdotes, the deeds of the Four Doctors of the Apocalypse, etc. I believe they will be very interested.】

The system prompt sounded, and giant ships appeared in the berths of the Foundation base.

And personnel of all levels automatically appeared at their respective posts and began to work.

"Entropy Reversal?"

After Bai Xuan understood the content of the system, he was slightly stunned, then slowly sat up from the bed and leaned against the headboard.

And this made March 7th, who had fallen into a deep sleep, "hum" twice and turn over.

Bai Xuan helped her pull up the quilt to prevent her from catching a cold, and then continued to examine his abilities.

The new ability obtained this time, in short, is the ability to control the change of "entropy" at will...

This cannot be described by the word "heaven-defying".

11

Entropy value, according to people's saying, is a very common thermodynamic term, and also a frequent visitor in science fiction literature.

It often appears together with an ultimate cosmological question:

Will the universe have an end? If so, in what way will the universe move towards its end?

If I have to introduce a few more sentences, in thermodynamics, the principle of entropy increase points out that the entropy of an isolated system will not decrease, but will increase with the passage of time until it reaches a maximum value—"heat death".

Interestingly, people often feel despair about the future of the entire universe when they first come into contact with these concepts, and then despair about their own lives, eventually moving towards complete nihilism.

I wonder if the Aeon of "Nihility" "IX" was also promoted to the Aeon of the "Nihility" path because of this?

Now, Bai Xuan held his hands behind his head, acting as a pillow, his gaze crossing hundreds of millions of light-years, staring at a star that was about to die.

And at a distance of several light-minutes away from this star, a priest of a primitive civilization was looking at the increasingly unstable "Ah" (the civilization's name for the sun) in the sky with full worry.

The reason for calling Him "Ah" is because this is the simplest note they can make.

They believe that "Ah" is the beginning of all syllables, the namer of all things, the father of the world, the mother of all things, the master of fire, and the god of punishment.

But at this moment, "Ah" didn't know why, but became increasingly angry.

"Ah" became bigger and bigger, became brighter, ruthlessly showing His authority.

Making the sky crimson, the air hot, rivers dry up, plants wither, fires frequent, livestock die of thirst...

Does He want to destroy the creations in this world?

Does He want to destroy His children?

But what exactly did they do wrong?

"Great prophet, we have already offered sacrifices, but why is 'Ah' still angry?"

The tribal chief bowed down beside the priest and asked.

The priest, although the most knowledgeable and wisest individual in the entire tribe.

But he was ignorant and ignorant at this time.

He was interpreting the changes in celestial phenomena, the shapes of flowing clouds, the pain in his own bones today, the shapes of the sacrifices on the altar... in order to obtain divine revelation.

"'Ah' is getting better, 'Ah' lets us wait... 'Ah' lets us continue to offer sacrifices."

In this kind of time, the only way this priest knew was to offer sacrifices to "Ah" and dance for Him himself.

The priest shook his four limbs, held two flags high, and danced a strange dance for "Ah", just like he had done before.

And just like his father, his grandfather, his great-grandfather... had always done.

The six eyes on his face looked at "Ah" devoutly, in order to let his clumsy performance dispel His anger.

Just at this moment, the sky suddenly darkened, and in a trance, the priest seemed to see countless rays of light flowing backwards.

In this miraculous scene, "Ah's" body size was also rapidly shrinking.

From the terrifying appearance that almost occupied the entire sky and covered everything, it shrank to a distant point of light, seemingly not even as big as his fist.

The heat around suddenly dissipated, the big fire in the forest disappeared, and the whole world was instantly a bit cold.

But no matter what the future holds, at least they were not burned to death alive.

"'Ah'! 'Ah'! 'Ah'!"

The priest's three mouths shouted at the same time, making a hoarse sound.

His scales changed color because of excitement, flowing with colorful luster.

His clansmen also joined this carnival together, praising "Ah".

And on the distant "Astral Express".

The culprit, Bai Xuan, glanced slightly at those primitive races, his mouth twitched, and he immediately withdrew his gaze.

Not to mention looking strange, dancing was even more eye-stinging.

The dance moves were not good!

He had just used "Entropy Reversal" on that star, gathering the light and heat in interstellar space, combined with the ability to manipulate the flow of time.

Making that star evolve in reverse for billions of years in an instant, returning from the end of life to the youth stage.

Bai Xuan experienced a feeling he had never had before in an instant, because before him, no one had ever experienced it.

He seemed to really stand on the long river of time, overlooking the phenomena of the universe.

If under the classic view of time, a person is placed in a syringe, one end is birth, and one end is death.

This life is pushed towards death by the piston.

Then, Bai Xuan became the existence that could pull the piston at will, and could even pull out the piston and let the person in the syringe out.

He smiled, pinched his monocle, and mocked himself:

"Well, I really became... the pointer that fiddles with time."

While laughing, his gaze fell on March 7th, who was still sleeping soundly beside him.

The other's cheeks had a touch of crimson, laughing from time to time, silly, cute, and innocent.

Looking at the other's sleeping face, an idea also slowly took shape in Bai Xuan's heart.

Next...

Let the Foundation's image become a bit more three-dimensional, and have a contrast.
