Chapter 247

Broken, replace.

It is precisely because of this that all therapies targeting the body are ineffective for Dr. Bright.

Perhaps it can make him feel better for a short time, but that's as far as it goes.

Seeing the changes in the expressions of March 7th, "Stelle", and Dan Heng, Dr. Bright rolled up his sleeves, revealing his slender wrists.

"Clatter~"

The sound of chains colliding rang out, and a gorgeous ornament hung down from the cuff, suspended in mid-air.

"Containment-963", Immortality.

He stared at the glowing gem and sneered.

"This is an eternal cage; even the supreme divinity 'The Missing' could not break it and let me be free."

"When my body was destroyed by Bai Sha and swallowed by 'The Missing', I really thought I could be free."

The corners of his mouth were slightly playful.

As if saying:

Not good enough, weakling.

"It was like a ruthless darkness, an abyss that seemed endless, swallowing you until you couldn't breathe."

"I often feel like I'm a sunken ship, struggling in the surging waves, but I can't find a way to escape."

Dr. Bright stood up, his steps slightly unsteady, but he immediately stabilized his stance, walking on flat ground, and walked to the porthole.

The shuttle was flying in the direction of the setting sun.

The sky, which was blue not long ago, was now tinged with a hint of red.

And below the shuttle was the city of the old days.

He saw that the ruins of the city were covered with scars, and the green plants crawling around them merged with the wilderness, followed by a lush forest.

The traces of humanity were thus erased.

His past experiences, all his memories, were completely recorded, and would emerge from his mind at any time, torturing him.

This is one of the reasons why he desperately threw himself into research or indulged in alcohol.

"A long, long time ago, when the Foundation was limited to one planet, I thought this was just a disease of a civilization, a society."

"For this reason, I later began to roam the universe, changing bodies, and delving into other civilizations."

"And in the end, I found that such diseases are everywhere, whether it is 'Yeppera', 'Electronic Holy Prison Anubis', 'Ring World Golconda', or 'Isolated World Pegana'."

"There are hollow people everywhere, their hearts so empty that they could fill the entire universe, but there is no place for themselves."

"Even I, who have the same illness as them, cannot establish a connection with them, as if I am in a lonely prison, with no door leading to the outside world."

Dr. Bright continued to look down.

The ruins just now had disappeared, replaced by mountains that were once blocked by ice and snow.

The shuttle traveled through them, slowly adjusting its angle, brushing past the treetops.

Startling the squirrels hiding in the treetops and scaring away the lurking snow leopards.

"Every day is a battle, a battle destined to fail—even simple things: getting up, washing, dressing, eating, have become huge challenges."

"When I switched back from the slime to the human body, I just lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, feeling that I couldn't move."

"Then I started trying to self-destruct again—there are too many tricks to play in space, but the craziest thing is to throw yourself into a black hole."

"That time, I was scolded hard by the Administrator, because I disappeared for a whole hundred years, Gears, Clef, and the annoying Kondraki prepared a celebration and farewell ceremony."

"So, I lay in the empty coffin they prepared in advance, and when the ceremony was halfway through, I jumped out of it, and then was pressed back in by Clef and Kondraki together."

"Even Professor Kain—that dog, drove that damn mecha to exorcise demons, ordering the demon occupying Dr. Bright's body to leave quickly."

"..."

At the same time, "Herta" Space Station.

Just when Herta thought the "Space Whale" had nothing special.

Reality gave her a big lesson:

What you think is just what you think.

"Miss... Station Master Asta, Ms. Herta."

Arlan looked hurried, running all the way to the two of them.

"What's the matter, Arlan, it's rare to see you so flustered."

"Not long ago, the space station received a regular electromagnetic wave from space."

This is not strange.

The density of galactic civilization is not low, and electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light.

It is not rare to receive broadcast signals from other civilizations thousands of years ago.

Before Herta's thoughts fell, she heard Arlan say sternly:

"After repeated confirmation, the final conclusion is... this mysterious message is very likely sent by 'Containment-2146'."

As he spoke, Arlan handed a tablet to Herta, asking the two superiors to take a look.

"?"

Herta's expression tightened, and the relaxed state just now disappeared completely.

Jarilo-VI and the "Herta" Space Station are not close, and can only be said to be at the ends of the earth.

This distance, no matter how you say it, is calculated in light-years.

Unless someone thinks that light can travel a light-year in one second.

Herta can only admire him; he must be a genius rarely seen in a thousand years.

Looking at the translated article, Herta muttered:

"How did it do it... could the signal sent by 'Containment-2146' be faster than light?"

Chapter 173: Miss Silver Wolf who doesn't want to be tested

Herta looked up at the huge light screen in the universe:

The whale's corpse was still moving in the orbit of Jarilo-VI, with no abnormalities.

Nor did it suddenly grin at the screen.

"This shouldn't be a broadcast it initiated actively... it's more like some kind of pattern or rule."

She muttered a sentence and began to think.

Just then, she received a communication from the Blue Star.

The home planet's monitoring array also received that strange radio wave, which seems to indicate that the transmission of "Containment-2146" has no specific target.

It is just repeating the act of "transmitting".

Like an abandoned robot, doing specific things at fixed times.

It's just that this thing is a bit strange.

"Could it be... it is broadcasting to the entire universe this time, promoting its strange 'Outer Whale Declaration'?"

She instantly dismissed the idea of continuing the investigation; the peculiarity of the containment object destined one thing—

Unless she could send a team to Jarilo-VI for research, its specific principles could not be explored at all.

But the space station had just been attacked by the "Antimatter Legion", and staff losses were severe.

Even many daily maintenance tasks of the space station had to be completed by working overtime, let alone transferring personnel to the distant Jarilo-VI.

"Sigh... why don't I ask them for a favor? Coincidentally, the trap set for Silver Wolf is already prepared, it's just missing 'Stelle' as the trigger."

Herta's eyebrows frowned slightly, and thoughts were mixed in her mind.

She was like an old man sitting on a fishing platform, casting a fishing line, looking for a suitable target from the ocean of thinking, and hooking it up.

"I don't know how many people's work status will be interrupted by the broadcast of 'Containment-2146'."

Herta narrowed her eyes, revealing a malicious smile.

Because, that was how her thoughts were interrupted, and she was forced to deal with related matters.

Just as she guessed.

Such a situation did not only happen at the "Herta" Space Station, but covered almost all civilizations in the entire universe.

Even Silver Wolf, who was playing games, did not escape.

A sudden broadcast sound woke Silver Wolf from her immersion state.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise; the perfect conception of where the game was going and what operation to do next was left with only a few thin silhouettes.

Even if she adjusted the code and forcibly muted the annoying sound, she couldn't perfectly return to the state just now.
