Chapter 909

"What a miserable Alice."

"I once thought that in the end, Christina and Alice would save the world together... but I didn't expect Christina to go reunite with her family one step ahead of Alice, leaving only the agent lady alone."

"Well, Alice was born in the most glorious era of human civilization, witnessed the decline of human civilization in the Great Fading, and also experienced the decline of human civilization in the Great Rain Era, finally becoming the last human in the apocalypse; the symbolic meaning on her is already full."

"After talking with 'The Wanderer,' Christina probably foresaw the ending and accepted it calmly. ~"

"Direct knives hurt people limitedly, echoes hurt people infinitely; Christina's final message is like stacking DoT."

…….

Alice quickly put away the terminal, forced herself to stand up, let her gaze linger on the exoskeleton wreckage and gray-white ashes under the gate for the last time, and then—left.

She still had life to lose; it wasn't time to give up yet.

And the moment she made the decision, the meaning in the words left by "The Wanderer" finally became clear.

【... It can be a fire of destruction, bringing the whole world into an abyss of no return; it can also be a fire of nirvana, burning the whole world but bringing hope to the new world...】

【... The choices you make are not for this world, but for a more distant future...】

And Christina told her:

【... The information put into the furnace will be preserved forever in the singularity and become the initial blueprint carried by the newly born universe...】

【... All your joy and unwillingness, all your love and pain, will turn into the purest information flow, becoming the key to opening a new world...】

Alice frowned slightly, then her expression gradually relaxed, with a trace of sadness still lingering between her brows.

This mission is really hard, Christina, "The Wanderer," and the Overseers... Alice complained in her heart.

Everyone pinned their hopes on her, letting her become the trigger to fire the spark of creation.

Alice didn't know what kind of mood she was in as she walked into the depths of the building, entered the server room, found the floor plan of the entire building, and then came to the last door.

Is it sadness? Is it calm? Is it happy? Or what...

She didn't know.

Maybe all of them.

Or maybe none of them.

And as the identity verification passed, when the silver-white gate opened, an incredibly huge super machine rushed into her eyes like a falling star—

"Black Hole Furnace."

She came before the "Black Hole Furnace."

And she could only see a small part of this facility.

This giant machine was composed of multiple composite structures stacked together.

The structural components almost filled every corner of the internal space, and they meshed and operated in an orderly manner, emitting a roar that shook the entire space.

Thousands of pipes extended from it, and countless lines climbed along the grooves preset on the machine body, with a mixture of machine oil flowing in the pipes.

Between the mechanical structures, magic arrays with flowing light were filled here, moving with the structure, rotating and changing along the established orbit, as if breathing slowly and flickering.

A part of this machine was not connected to any structure, but simply floated in mid-air.

A cavity structure was displayed directly above the main body of the machine.

Specifically, it was a spherical cavity woven from thread-like structures, with the ends of countless pipes and lines converging here.

Inside the cavity, a small black hole was slowly rotating, as if it were an eye watching the world.

The space around it was distorted, and the light was bent and elongated at the edges, forming a strange halo.

And within it, a semi-exposed singularity, beyond the event horizon of the black hole, was able to be observed by Alice with the naked eye, and countless glowing particles rotated irregularly around it.

This picture was incredibly strange, far beyond Alice's understanding and cognition of relativity.

Above this huge machine was another more exaggerated and larger transparent protective cover, which isolated the "Black Hole Furnace" and the console at the bottom from the outside world.

Alice looked at that machine for a long time.

"This is the 'Black Hole Furnace.' Is it?"

No one answered her.

"This story is going to end here. This is the ending, is it?"

No one answered her.

"Are there any other bridges, any other reversals? If there are, take them out quickly, okay?"

No one answered her.

"What else do I need to do?"

"Take a photo, adjust the parameters, pull the lever. Then the world will end, and then be reborn, is that it?"

No one answered her, but she knew in her heart that it was.

She was just wandering.

"Is this a story that belongs only to me? Are everyone else just passersby?"

No one answered her, but she knew it wasn't.

Alice slowly walked to the protective cover, raised the camera on her chest, aimed at the console, and pressed the shutter.

A photo began to wash out instantly.

"I... with everyone, this trip at the end, is not just for the Foundation, or the world. Right?"

No one answered her.

No one could answer her.

Alice reached her hand into the photo, passed through the barrier of the protective cover, and quickly operated the buttons and joysticks of various colors. ===== CHAPTER 911 =====

Alice reached her hand into the photograph, passed through the barrier of the protective shield, and swiftly operated the various colored buttons and control levers.
