Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 317: Filling in the gaps: The origin of the agent

When I heard this.

Li Xiu, who was far away in the Black Worm Star laboratory, suddenly used Xie Shen's combat power detector to speak to Zeus.

"If I'm not mistaken, the intelligent life in the Andromeda Galaxy should not have perished under the destruction of the Dreamweaver."

"At least one of them survived by some special means and fled all the way to the Milky Way."

"Also, after that person fled to the Milky Way, he should have had contact with you, Zeus."

"That's why you know so much about the Andromeda Galaxy."

"Of course."

At this point, Li Xiu suddenly changed the subject.

He said in a very calm tone, "I just thought of another possibility." "That is"

"As the boss of the agents, you, Zeus."

"You are most likely the intelligent life that escaped from the Andromeda Galaxy to our Milky Way."

"Comparing the two speculations, I personally prefer the latter one."

! !
In the secret room.

After hearing what Li Xiu said, Xie Shen, Zeus and the other two all showed a flash of shock on their faces.

"Ugh"

After a few seconds.

Zeus suddenly sighed and said with admiration: "As expected, you are the famous leader of the Human Alliance, Li Xiu."

"You haven't even seen me."

"Just based on the few words I just said, you guessed my true identity."

"Li Xiu, you are indeed smart!"

talking.

Zeus' tone was full of curiosity. "But I don't understand, Li Xiu. Didn't you just mention two possibilities at once?"

"Why do you think the latter possibility is more likely?"

"Why do you think I am the intelligent life from the Andromeda Galaxy?"

"What if I just had contact with that person, so I know so much information?"

"The reason is very simple." Li Xiu explained in a cold tone in the combat power detector: "The reason why I can be sure is that Zeus, you are the intelligent life."

"A ruthless person who can escape all the way from the Andromeda Galaxy to the Milky Way must be a very capable and quite extraordinary ruthless person."

"A person like this would definitely be a big shot in the Andromeda Galaxy."

"Now that I'm in the Milky Way, I can certainly thrive as well."

"However, such a person has not appeared in my sight."

Li Xiu explained: "All the people in the Milky Way who have had certain identities or achievements that I have come into contact with either have growth experiences that can be inquired about, or have parents and relatives."

"But only you, Zeus, the boss of the agents."

"Your identity has always been a mystery."

"I have no idea about your origins or your upbringing."

"But the fact that 'there is no way to know' is actually a kind of information."

Li Xiu concluded: "Based on the information that 'there is no way to know', I can completely infer that you, Zeus, are the intelligent life from the Andromeda Galaxy!"

"Because only intelligent life from the Andromeda Galaxy would not be able to find any growth experience, or parents or relatives!"

"Snap, snap!"
See Li Xiu's reasoning, his logic is so rigorous.

Zeus couldn't help but high-five and praised: "Excellent, really wonderful!"

"Your logical reasoning, and your ability to collect and integrate intelligence."

"Li Xiu, in terms of intelligence, I, Zeus, would like to call you the best in the entire galaxy!"

Inside the combat power detector.

Perhaps it was because his own emotions were too indifferent. Facing Zeus's flattery, Li Xiu's emotions did not fluctuate at all.

He then asked Zeus: "Then, if we continue to analyze according to the conclusion just now, it will not be difficult to deduce."

"The reason why you are trapped underground on the planet Zebulon is because you are being hunted by the creatures from the Andromeda Galaxy - the Dreamweavers."

"So, in order to prevent it from chasing you all the way to the Milky Way, you managed to create this ancient bronze mirror."

"I don't know how this ancient mirror was made."

“But I think this ancient mirror must have some kind of hidden aura, or it can isolate perception, or it may have a function similar to a seal.”

"It is thanks to this ancient mirror that you have been able to survive until now."

Li Xiu finally concluded: "So, you have been trapped underground for thousands of years, not for the purpose of protecting the future of all mankind."

"You are only doing this for yourself, to avoid being hunted down by the creature called Dreamweaver."

"Haha." Zeus smiled bitterly and admitted generously: "If it were in the past, you would have pointed out the truth so directly. Not only would I not admit it, but I would have tried every means to kill you to silence you."

"But these days are different."

"Now, the entire Zebulon planet has been drained of its original power by the zero-dimensional annihilation weapon."

"Plus, I am trapped underground on this planet and cannot leave at all."

"You could say my death is almost certain."

"So, nothing matters anymore."

"Isn't it?"

Zeus said with a hint of despair in his tone: "Even you are included."

"Although you can leave Zebulon at any time, you can temporarily escape the influence range of the zero-dimensional annihilation weapon."

"But you can't escape the galaxy after all."

"So you will eventually be killed by the zero-dimensional annihilation weapon."

"This is your fate."

As he spoke, Zeus began to act a little negative, and there was even a hint of gloating in his tone.

he continued.

"I just do not understand."

"Why are you struggling so hard?"

"You knew you were doomed, yet you still came all the way to the underground of Zebulon Planet to get information from me."

"Why are you struggling in vain?"

"You said we were struggling in vain, didn't you?" Li Xiu said to Zeus, "Facing outsiders like us, or even hostile forces, you told him everything you knew because you also wanted to find a glimmer of hope before you die."

"You want to count on us, hope that we can find a way to save you."

"I guess I guessed it right?"

"Heh," Zeus shook his head and said, "To be honest, when you first came, I did have this plan in mind."

"But after chatting for a few sentences, I found that you all know nothing about many things."

"So, I gave up my previous idea." "I know very well that you can't save me."

"You can't even save your own lives, how can you save others?"

When the conversation reached this point, Zeus ordered Xie Shen and the others to leave, saying, "Go back and stop bothering me."

"Before I die, I want to be alone and quiet."

"I don't want to chat with you anymore and waste my time with you anymore."

Although Zeus was not willing to continue chatting with Xie Shen and others.

But Xie Shen and his team were unwilling to give up such a good opportunity to gather intelligence.

Seeing that Zeus had given up on himself and didn't want to continue talking, Li Xiu suddenly asked from the combat power detector: "Can you tell me, how long can you hold on?"

"Ok??"

Zeus was stunned when he heard this.

He hesitated for a few seconds before speaking, "With this laboratory built with special materials and the body I'm currently controlling, I should be able to hold on for another 2-3 days."

"2-3 days?" Li Xiu said calmly, "If you can really hold on for that long without dying, then I think I should be able to save you."

"As for the reason, it is not convenient for me to explain it now."

"Because we don't have much time left."

"In short, if you want to survive, you must cooperate with me."

"You must answer all the questions I ask truthfully."

"What do you think?"

In the secret room.

Zeus said nothing.

There was a thoughtful look in his eyes, as if he was seriously considering the credibility of what Li Xiu had just said.

After more than half a minute, he said, "Alright. Just because you're Li Xiu, I believe you."

"Whatever you want to ask, just ask."

"First question." Li Xiu spoke very quickly and concisely to Zeus: "Where did the zero-dimensional annihilation weapon come from?"

Zeus replied: "If nothing unexpected happens, this weapon was most likely launched into the Milky Way by intelligent life from the Andromeda Galaxy, that is, my kind, with the help of the power of the Dreamweaver."

"Your kind?" Li Xiu asked in confusion, "Didn't all your people die at the hands of the Dream Weaver? Why are there still survivors?"

"Isn't this the same as the indescribable creatures in the Milky Way?" Zeus explained, "The indescribable creatures will never exterminate humans. They will only find ways to enslave humans or keep them in captivity."

"Similarly, the Dreamweaver will not exterminate all the intelligent life in the Andromeda Galaxy."

"It will use the nightmares it has woven to trap my people for eternity, enslave them and keep them in captivity, thereby constantly collecting more fear and using it to weave more real and more terrifying dreams."

"This nightmare will never end, and it will continue like this."

"I see." Li Xiu said thoughtfully, "Just like the humans in our galaxy who have been contaminated by indescribable creatures."

"Those intelligent beings that launched zero-dimensional annihilation weapons into our galaxy are now just a bunch of walking corpses.

"

"Everything he does is in compliance with the orders of the Dreamweaver."

"Yes." Zeus smiled helplessly and said, "So although those people are still alive, I am the only one."

"I am the only one who can truly be considered the only intelligent life still alive in the Andromeda Galaxy."

"I see." Li Xiu quickly asked, "Second question."

"Didn't you just say that the Dreamweavers, like the Unspeakable Creatures, were born from the black hole at the center of the galaxy?"

"Since they were all born in the same way, and their life forms seem to have been carefully carved and set by someone in advance."

"Then I think there must be a mastermind behind them."

Li Xiu asked Zeus.

"So, do you know who are the people behind these things?"

"And how on earth are we going to find them?"

"Not really?" Hearing Li Xiu's question, Zeus was a little surprised and asked, "With the current technological level of your human alliance, you can't even see this?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

Zeus replied: "It is impossible for intelligent life on the same latitude as us to compile the existence of dream weavers and indescribable creatures."

"After all, the existence and activities of these creatures are far beyond our understanding."

"The mastermind behind compiling these creatures can only be a higher-dimensional life form."

“Although my people and I don’t know whether higher-dimensional life forms exist.”

"But with the level of technology and our cognition at our peak."

"The only explanation we can imagine is a higher-dimensional life form."

"As for how to find higher-dimensional life forms."

Zeus thought for a moment before continuing.

"According to scientists in our Andromeda Galaxy, which includes me, of course, because I am a scientist myself."

"According to our speculation, there are giant black holes at the center of each barred spiral galaxy, that is, the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, and the black hole at the center of the Andromeda Galaxy."

"These black holes should most likely lead to the hiding places of higher-dimensional life forms."

"As for what higher-dimensional life forms look like, and what their hiding places look like."

"I don't know any of this."

"You can only know after you send someone there in person."

Li Xiu is a person who does things flawlessly.

As soon as he heard it, he found a loophole in Zeus' words and asked, "Since the intelligent life in your Andromeda Galaxy has determined that the hiding place of high-dimensional life forms can be found in the black hole, why don't you send people into the black hole to explore?"

"Who said we didn't send anyone?" Zeus said helplessly, "But the problem is that because my people and I are too weak physically and mentally, almost none of the people we sent into the black hole to explore came back alive."

"But you humans are different."

Zeus emphasized: "Compared with the intelligent life in our Andromeda Galaxy, your human technology is relatively backward, and you don't even know how to deal with zero-dimensional annihilation weapons."

"But you humans also have advantages."

"You humans are able to practice cultivation. You have a special group of monks."

"According to my deduction, among the cultivators who have reached the Return to Void Stage or above and have mastered the power of origin, they should be able to enter the central black hole and survive."

"They have the credentials to explore the central black hole."

Zeus concluded: "So you humans don't have to follow the path that the life forms in our Andromeda Galaxy have taken."

"You can try to explore the central black hole to find those higher-dimensional life forms and try to launch a counterattack against them."

"Even if this counterattack is like a moth flying into a flame."

"But at least you tried, didn't you?"

"At least you don't have to be like us in the Andromeda Galaxy, who never saw the true face of the enemy until they died."
