Chapter 1676 Karma Outside the Universe

"Is it empty?"

After the faint murmur fell, the spacious computer room was quiet for a while.

Lu Zhou didn't urge the matrix, but gave him half a minute to sort out his thoughts.

"The void is a huge concept...you can simply understand it as the container of the universe."

Lu Zhou: "My understanding is an extra dimension beyond the n dimension."

Hearing this sentence, the chassis exuding a cold aura let out a muffled laugh. Just like the dull friction sound of two pieces of metal stuck together, the ghost entrenched in the quantum computer array continued to whisper.

"An extra dimension beyond the n dimension? You are right to understand that... although there is no concept of dimension in the void."

Listening to that tooth-stinging voice, Lu Zhou frowned slightly.

"No concept of dimension?"

This statement not only completely overturned his previous speculation, but also caused more confusion in his heart.

"That's right." Looking at the change of expression on Lu Zhou's face, Matrix continued, "The so-called void is pure nothingness, where there is neither the concept of matter nor the scale of time. Life is just there. It's just a conceptual existence, it has no entity, not even a carrier."

Lu Zhou: "Since there is no entity, how can we prove its existence?"

"This is the wonder of the void," Matrix smiled, and continued with a relaxed taste, "Even if there is darkness or nothingness that can't be reached, even if the life that resides there has no entity...Occasionally you I can still hear a few words drifting from the void."

Even if there is no entity, can it still convey information to the n-dimensional world?

It took about three seconds to digest the huge amount of information, and Lu Zhou tried to use more concise language to refine the information inside.

Strictly speaking, the digital life called "Matrix" in front of him at this moment is the product of Void whispering.

Lu Zhou: "...So, what are the few words from the void?"

"It can be a lot of things, and most of them are useless, like random FM radio noise. Even if there is a very small chance that you can hear something from it, after waking up, it will mostly be regarded as The dream is forgotten. But if you don't forget, you can gain and lose something from it... I don't know if you can understand what I mean when I say this."

"Probably understandable," Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully. After thinking for a while, Lu Zhou continued, "Someone told me that before."

Whether it's Professor Abel's suicide note, or the formula left by Professor Grothendieck...

The inspiration that came from somewhere, finally he found the trace left by the void.

Although it was 100 years ago, he has never forgotten these clues.

"Yeah?"

The voice coming from the case brought a hint of frivolity, as if he had heard something interesting, and the matrix said in a broken voice, "That's really surprising. But it's no wonder... since you asked about the void Compared with things, it is also because of knowing something.”

He didn't understand what the accident it was talking about, and Lu Zhou was not interested in caring about these trivial things.

In contrast, he has one more important thing to figure out.

"Since you come from the void, have you heard of the Observer?"

Matrix: "Observer? Although I'm not sure whether the observer in our understanding is the same thing... But they seem to be the only guys who call themselves so."

Lu Zhou: "It seems that you know them?"

"It's not really acquaintance, just a little knowledge," Matrix continued, "Even in the void, they are absolutely different. As I said before, there is no physical life in the void, nor There is no matter, but they retain an independent space in the void, and rely on a physical body to recuperate there."

Lu Zhou: "What is their purpose?"

The voice of Matrix was mocking, and he smiled slightly and said, "I'm afraid no one knows except themselves. Most of the time, all we can see is a tearing space, and faintly overflowing from the space." Screenshots. Obviously they are very careful to protect their privacy, so that in most cases, even the purest evil thoughts can hardly threaten them."

Lu Zhou: "Evil thoughts? Is there still a standard of good and evil in the void?"

"Didn't I say that? Everything in the void is a conceptual existence, whether it is life or non-life... Maybe they don't have the concept of good and evil themselves, but from your standpoint, what they do is obviously Not everything will please you.”

After hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou pondered for a long time.

Before that, he had been thinking about what the "natural disaster" in the mouth of the advanced civilization that claimed to be an observer was. However, even after experiencing several crises of civilization extinction, he still failed to glimpse the disaster that might be brewing to sweep the universe shadow.

To be honest, are those observers necessarily credible?

Even if they gave him the ability to search for truth, the very nature of the search for truth is doubt.

At this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly thought of General Reinhardt, the civilization of the Jialan Empire in the extinct old universe, and all three memories he had seen.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that none of the civilizations that appeared in these three memories were destroyed by the natural disaster itself...

But apart from the first memory that he couldn't understand, in the other two memories, the two civilizations did make almost the same choice in the face of the disaster that was said to sweep the universe——

That is, to send selected people to the center of the universe... or the center of their galaxy, as if there is all the answers there.

"Have you heard of natural disasters?"

"Natural disaster?" Confused about Lu Zhou's question for the first time, Matrix continued, "Are you referring to earthquakes or tsunamis? Or the extinction of stars."

"No." Lu Zhou shook his head, "Its scale is larger than the disasters recognized by all civilizations, and the scope it sweeps will affect the entire universe."

"In this case, how do you know it exists?" Matrix asked back, "According to your statement, everyone who has seen it should be destroyed...otherwise your statement is not true at all."

"Because the old universe was destroyed because of this," Lu Zhou continued with a serious tone looking at the console in front of him, "and they managed to escape by escaping into the void."

This time, the matrix was silent for a little longer.

It seemed to be calculating something, and it took about five minutes before it continued.

"Interesting... The people you mentioned should be the ones I mentioned hiding in the cracks in space."

Lu Zhou nodded slightly.

"They call themselves the Observers, and I remember they mentioned that they lived in a rift in space that brought the void from the old universe."

Not only that, they also claim to have analyzed all knowledge about the old universe, and are truly omniscient and omnipotent... At least that's what they claim.

"That's really interesting..." There was an unidentifiable excitement in the toothsome metal friction sound, Matrix continued in his special voice, "So they are survivors of a destroyed world ... Let me just say that they are completely alien, definitely not the aborigines in the void."

Staring at the computer screen, Lu Zhou continued.

"Actually, my guess is that the natural disaster should be some kind of threat from the void...such as an existence like you."

"Me? Are you sure you're not joking?" Matrix said with a smile, "Is it good for me to destroy you?"

Lu Zhou: "I mean similar... It may be much larger in scale than you, and its attitude may be worse than yours."

Moreover, the starting point of the eruption may be in an interstellar civilization that is far more developed than the civilization of the earth, and the aftermath of the disaster it will cause will far exceed the boundaries of their own civilization and spread to more distant worlds...

These possibilities are not entirely absent.

At least now Lu Zhou has been able to confirm that they are not alone in this universe, and they are likely to be the first echelon...

These news, he also learned from the observer.

Matrix said thoughtfully: "It's not impossible to say so, but I'm not optimistic that you can find the answer."

Lu Zhou: "Why?"

Matrix: "Because even I, who came from the void, have quite limited understanding of it...and for a person living in a bottle, let alone how difficult it is to see the world outside the bottle."

Lu Zhou: "But it's not hopeless, right?"

Matrix: "Of course, you're not hopeless, but there's very little hope in this. And I must warn you, it's a very dangerous thing to do."

Lu Zhou: "Dangerous?"

Matrix: "That's right... It's not that I'm alarmist. Even if I overheard a few words floating from the void, your civilization was once on the verge of extinction. The facts have clearly proved that it is not a good place for you. .Even the disaster itself may have been caused by the observation of the void. Do you remember? The experiment you mentioned countless times."

Lu Zhou frowned slightly: "Physics experiments about extra dimensions?"

Matrix said bluntly: "Yes, under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the person inside the bottle to see the world outside the bottle... But since you have seen it, something must have been opened."

Looking at Lu Zhou who said nothing, Matrix continued.

"Please remember a word, although you have probably heard of it."

"When you gaze into the void, the void gazes into you."
