Chapter 523: My Memory

Heat Death, Big Crunch, Big Rip, Big Bounce—these are all the ultimate fates of the Universe, and the fate of every universe is different.

The fate of the Universe is not uniform.

After implementing a knowledge blockade, a genius will certainly emerge, and this genius will discover the knowledge that has been blocked.

And Karl is that genius, as well as the genius carefully chosen by Space.

A genius with an endless desire for knowledge; only such a genius can meet Space's requirements.

When Karl became Space's student, he began an endless exploration, under Space's guidance, or perhaps without Space's guidance.

Karl discovered Quantum Mechanics and began to study it earnestly.

Since everything started from scratch, building the system was extremely difficult; the difficulty of creating an entirely new system can be imagined.

Karl does not know how many years he spent toiling, but he finally built the system to a point of near completion.

As a result, through Quantum Mechanics, he obtained a terrifying conclusion: the Universe will be destroyed.

But because he built the system alone, and Space must have had a hand in it, Karl's answer was misled.

He mistook the so-called destruction for the Ultimate Fear.

Subsequently, in order to prevent the arrival of the Ultimate Fear and to save the entire Universe, he made contact with the Void, was seduced by the Void, and became a puppet of the Void.

Ultimately allowing the Void Arrival.

The benefit Space can gain from doing this is that when two universes collide and one of them is destroyed, that destroyed universe will burst forth with tremendous energy.

And this tremendous energy is enough to support him in breaking through the barriers of the Universe and arriving at the true Great Universe.

Of course, if he were to sit and wait for the Universe to be destroyed before heading to the Great Universe, he likely wouldn't survive, as he would be destroyed right along with the Universe.

As for Space's other contingency plan.

Ye Cang can also guess roughly what it is.

It is nothing more than Ge Xiaolun, Di Leina, and Liu Chuang.

The same operation, just with different actions taken after the Void Arrival.

There is nothing to say.

And the last point is that remark Space made about finally saying something different.

Listening to what he meant, the same scene has already played out countless times, which means everything is in a loop, and neither he nor anyone else knows it; only Space knows that all of this is in a loop.

If that is truly the case...

Then that is truly somewhat terrifying.

However, the probability of such a thing is pitifully small; Space must have been referring to something else.

Understanding Space's intentions, Ye Cang rejected him directly.

"I refuse."

As soon as these words were spoken, Space's tone immediately rose by several degrees.

"Refuse?!"

"Ye Cang, you stubborn fellow, you are just like a rock in a latrine—stinking and hard; no matter how many times it happens, you always refuse me!"

Ye Cang:...

No... the way he said that is just too easy to misinterpret.

It makes it sound like he is some kind of jilted woman in a boudoir.

Terrifying!

Seeing Ye Cang not speaking, Space said coldly: "Ye Cang!"

"I am telling you that refusing me is not a good choice; coming with me to the Great Universe is your only way to survive!"

"This time is the worst-case scenario; if you still refuse me, it is very likely that you will perish, and there will be no more chances!"

Ye Cang still did not speak, still staring at Space with an expressionless face.

His mind was racing at high speed.

At this moment, the two words "time loop" kept appearing in his mind.

Space's words were as good as telling him outright.

Time is looping, and all of this, he has already experienced countless times.

Every time the result is different, and this time the result is the worst one: the Void is about to devour the entire Universe.

Then what about the previous results?

Ye Cang began to feel curious.

But the curiosity was snuffed out by him as soon as it emerged.

What is the use of being curious about these things now?

Seeing Ye Cang still sitting there quietly, Space let out a long sigh.

"Ye Cang, you should consider it carefully."

"You are the only person in this Universe qualified to walk side-by-side with me."

"Even Karl does not have this qualification."

"You have one day to consider; at this time tomorrow, I will take the initiative to destroy your Galaxy Defense Line, and I will let the Void invade this final pure land."

"I absolutely will not allow anyone to block my path to the Great Universe!"

"If you are still obsessed and unrepentant by then, then go die along with your galaxy!"

After speaking, Space flicked his robe.

The surrounding darkness immediately receded, and in the blink of an eye, Ye Cang had returned to his office.

Ye Cang turned his head and glanced out the window.

Right now, he is not curious about why Space has set his sights on him, or why he insists on him going to the Great Universe.

Because there is really nothing to be curious about regarding this thing.

Everyone's reasons are bizarre; to say the most outrageous thing, perhaps Space just has a preference for this, which is why he insists on taking him along.

Of course, this is an outrageous statement, just a metaphor.

Right now, there is only one question that Ye Cang is truly curious about.

If time has looped countless times.

Then what about his past memories?

Have they all been forgotten?

No, that cannot be.

If he can reach this point today, then the past version of himself could not have been that bad; a mere matter of memory preservation would not be too difficult for him.

Since that is the case, then his past memories...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Ye Cang.

He seemed to know where his past memories had gone.

"System, come out."

Yes, Ye Cang suspected that his past memories were related to the system in his mind.

The suspicious points about the system were too great, especially those things he had said before.

He remembered them vividly.

For instance, when he complained about the name Burning Heaven Divine Weapon, the system had quietly retorted that he was the one who named it.

Or, for example, the dissuasion from the system when he took the second dose of the potion.

Furthermore, there was...

However, what surprised Ye Cang was this.

The system, which would usually appear immediately upon being called, did not appear this time, as if it did not exist at all.

"System, come out!"

"Come out!"

"Come out!"

After calling three times in a row, the system still showed no movement, as if it truly did not exist.

Ye Cang did not call for the system again, but instead tapped the table lightly, producing a rhythmic sound.

Dong... dong... dong... dong...

The system's silence already explained the problem quite well.

His past memories were, in all likelihood, related to the system.

What a self-incriminating system.

However, now is not the time to argue with the system about these things.

Since she will not appear, then she has her reasons for not appearing, and he has no need to concern himself with that.

What needs to be dealt with now is tomorrow.

Space's so-called Void invasion, destroying the last galaxy in the Universe.

The Galaxy.
