Chapter 1680 The Heart of the Galaxy

"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot... It's been so long since our last conversation."

Looking at "myself" standing in front of me, Lu Zhou opened his mouth, and continued with a rather helpless expression, "Actually, I wanted to say it last time, can you change your skin and meet me? It always feels weird to talk to myself. of……"

"Unfortunately, our aesthetic imagination is too lacking, and we don't have a form that can be directly observed by three-dimensional creatures, so we can only communicate with you face to face in this way...Of course, I can also learn from you. Looking for a most memorable image in my memory as a substitute—"

"No need," looking at the gradually distorted light and shadow, Lu Zhou said quickly, "Let's do it now, I suddenly feel pretty good again."

It's uncomfortable to be read from your mind.

And I always feel that this guy will turn into a strange look...

"Really? Your human mind is really hard to figure out."

Looking at the observer who was looking at him curiously, Lu Zhou coughed lightly and said.

"... Putting aside the irrelevant things, it must not be easy for you to come to see me just once."

"Of course," the observer standing in front of Lu Zhou continued with a slight nod, "It is not a risk-free thing to make your own voice from the void. We convey the understanding of truth to this world. What needs to be consumed is not only energy, but also the treasures we brought to the void from the old universe... and both of these are non-renewable resources for us in the void."

Lu Zhou: "...Thank you so much."

"You're welcome," the observer smiled lightly, and continued, "To a large extent, helping you is also helping ourselves."

Having said that, it paused for a moment, and stretched its hand into its arms.

When he took his hand out of his pocket, Lu Zhou noticed that there was a bright silver light in his hand.

The slowly rhythmic outline is like a burning fireball, but surprisingly, the fireball-like light is not dazzling, and it can even make people feel a soft breath. Even if you look directly at it with both eyes, you won't feel any discomfort.

Attracted by the silver light, Lu Zhou stared at it for a while, but didn't understand it.

Finally, unable to restrain his confusion, he whispered.

"This is……"

"It has a poetic name, which comes from a poet of the old universe," the observer smiled slightly, and said softly, "Translated in your language, it is the heart of the galaxy."

Heart of the Galaxy?

Hearing this name, Lu Zhou froze for a moment, his eyes were full of confusion and complicated expressions when he stared at the silver-white sphere.

"Heart of the Galaxy... what is it?"

Observer: "Just like the literal meaning, it is the heart of the Milky Way, born at the beginning of the universe. It has no fixed form, it is free between energy and matter, independent of time and space."

"Dissociated between energy and matter, independent of time and space?" With strong curiosity in his eyes, looking at the silver light in the observer's hand, Lu Zhou continued to ask, "I have never heard of And such a strange substance...how did you name it, or this state?"

Observer: "How we named it has no meaning to you. The key is how you name it and study it."

Having vaguely sensed something, Lu Zhou moved his gaze up two inches, looked at the face carved out of the same mold as himself, and said.

"...So you plan to let me study this thing?"

"That's right."

Gently nodding his head, the observer stretched out his right hand, and gently placed the silver light on Lu Zhou's hand.

"We've learned all about it over billions of years, yet our intuition about science tells us there's still something we don't know about it...or neglect to miss .”

"Therefore, we look for promising civilizations in the universe, and select suitable talents from among them to complete those subjects that require creativity and that we are not good at."

"I don't understand." Looking at the Galaxy Heart in his hand, Lu Zhou said in a puzzled tone, "But why me? There should be nothing special about me."

"Maybe it seems like this to you, but the way we think about the problem may be a little different from yours," the observer smiled lightly and continued, "Although the process may be a bit tortuous, at least so far, Everything is running on the track we expected... Although the future we can predict, it will end here."

Having said that, it paused for a moment, then continued.

"We have already given you all the help we can provide. As for how to go in the future, it all depends on your own choices."

"Farewell, my friend. Although I have only met you twice, as I said before, I like you quite a bit."

"Wait a minute! What is that future era?" Looking at the observer who seemed to be about to leave, Lu Zhou quickly asked, "It is written on the page of the system user manual that as long as all levels are full, the future era can be unlocked." Options……"

"Future era?"

The observer smiled slightly, and said a philosophical sentence in a humorous tone, "Didn't you already see it?"

Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou was stunned.

Although there is indeed nothing wrong with what he said, and he even thought so before, but he never thought that this so-called "reward for unlocking the future era" is really just...a decoration?

When he raised his entire level to LV10, he naturally stepped into the future.

Seeing the dumbfounding expression on his face, the observer, whose voice and outline gradually blurred, smiled slightly, and continued in a gentle tone.

"The future created with your own hands, don't you think there is no more precious treasure in this world? What's more, I even gave you the heart of the galaxy, so why are you dissatisfied?"

Lu Zhou: "...The reason why you gave it to me is just to use me to unlock its secret."

The observer did not hide anything, nodded, and said in a natural tone, "I don't deny this, but this is not out of selfish considerations. Remember, your research results may affect the fate of the entire universe , and as a creature in this universe, since you have the ability to do something, I still hope that you can shoulder your responsibilities."

Just as he was talking, the figure standing in front of Lu Zhou began to become erratic.

It was like a flickering candle, as if it might go out at any moment.

"Before you disappear, can I ask you a question?" Looking at the gradually dissipating light particles and the gradually fading silhouette, Lu Zhou stared at it intently, and asked quickly, "What is the natural disaster... ...now can you tell me?"

Intuition told Lu Zhou that after this face-to-face conversation, it would be a long, long time before he wanted to see this guy again.

Maybe it's even the last time they see each other.

The eyebrows were raised slightly, and a thoughtful expression appeared on the observer's face.

"A natural disaster? Although I think it would be better to tell you later..."

"You should tell me now," Lu Zhou said quickly, "Even you think it's too late, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until that day."

"That's right, please remember, for the sake of this universe, please keep everything about it tight-lipped."

"I promise."

Looking at Lu Zhou who made the promise seriously, the observer smiled slightly and walked in front of him.

The outline formed by thousands of light particles has gradually begun to blur, like broken soap bubbles, disappearing one after another in the wind that cannot be touched.

It moved close to Lu Zhou's ear, moved its lips slightly, and said in a voice that only two people could hear.

"The natural disaster is..."

The pupils dilated slightly, and then slowly shrank a little. Lu Zhou was silent for a while, looking at the bubble that had disappeared, and nodded slightly.

"I see."
