My Endless Life.

Chapter 609 Debris from Beyond the Galaxy
In the dark universe, twinkling starlight.

Li Qi sat by the window in his room, turned off all the lights, and looked out at the boundless starry sky.

The area of ​​the small world is limited, after all, it is just a simulated world constructed by Xinlian mainly using her own consciousness and borrowing a part of the soul power absorbed by Li Qi.

Normally, the area would not exceed that of a city, but now the Ark has flown very, very far, so far that the original planet has now become a tiny dot.

This distance is so great that it exceeds the area limit of the simulated small world.

therefore……

This might mean that the world is real.

Li Qi truly connected with Adam III's body in some way.

Was it past images projected into Li Qi's mind through some kind of connection? Or something else?
That was what Li Qi originally thought.

But considering that if the Ark really encountered the fog monster, Adam III's abilities alone would be insufficient to withstand it, he abandoned his first idea.

If this were truly something that happened in the past, Li Qi shouldn't be able to use his alchemy here.

The final fate of the Ark will certainly be complete destruction, leaving everyone stranded on the planet, unable to escape from the doomed world.

But if it weren't for the past images... the events in the Misty World had already passed several hundred years since Li Qi's reincarnation.

Even if time flows extremely slowly in the Misty World, several years or even decades must have passed in a few hundred years.

It's possible that, no matter how you look at it, only a few months have passed.

dong dong dong-

There was a knock on the door, and even without looking, Li Qi knew who was knocking.

After a moment of silence, Li Qi turned on the lights in the room, sat down in an armchair, and then said to the person outside the door:
"Come in, the door is unlocked."

crunch.

The door opened with a click, and as expected, Chris stood in front of Li Qi.

Li Qi silently looked at her, meeting her eyes.

Chris closed the door before looking up at Li Qi and asking:
"You...you're Li Qi, right? The real Li Qi..."

"I find it strange that you were able to detect it. Logically, you shouldn't be able to perceive the difference between me and Adam III."

Li Qi was unaware that Chris had discovered the Adam 3 incident after he left.

Although he didn't know, Chris's reaction after returning this time allowed Li Qi to instantly guess the truth of the matter.

That's why he was so puzzled as to why Chris could so quickly perceive the difference between him and Adam III.

Don't talk about mother and child being connected by blood or anything like that. After several reincarnations and several leaps in the level of his soul, the aura left on Li Qi's soul is already very different from before.

Even if he really returned to this world, Chris wouldn't be able to detect Li Qi's identity through the difference in their soul aura.

Li Qi looked at Chris with great curiosity.

Chris stared at the person before her, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, for a moment, then sat down next to Li Qi and said:
"Is it a feeling, or... something else, but when you speak, I feel like it's you."

"That sounds a bit unreasonable."

"The relationship between parents and children is inherently irrational..."

Chris turned her head and looked at Li Qi with gentle eyes.

However, Li Qi felt very uncomfortable with that look in his eyes.

If he were still in the state of having just left the Misty World, he might still be able to accept the affection from Chris. But after reincarnating for so long, he has been a child, a father, a grandfather, and the ancestor of an entire family.

Although after the interstellar era, Zelia's changes to Li Qi's consciousness made Li Qi's personality more in line with his apparent age in the interstellar era, his own experience remains.

He genuinely couldn't bring himself to call a stranger "Mom."

As for Zelia... since she is a member of the Xel'Nak family in this life, Li Qi didn't feel any aversion towards her.

But as for Chris...

While Li Qi hesitated, Chris seemed to have misunderstood something, and she whispered:

"I know you don't like us because we abandoned you for so long... but... please give us a chance, please... don't leave..."

“I’m sorry, but you seem to have misunderstood something.” Li Qi interrupted Chris, replying, “It’s not that I don’t accept you, but you don’t understand what I’ve been through. By the standards of my soul, I’m now hundreds of years older than you, and my memories of you have already faded somewhat. So how can I accept you?”

Rather than being bothered by Chris, Li Qi thought it better to tell her the truth directly.

So he chose to tell Chris everything.

But Chris didn't quite understand the meaning behind Li Qi's words, and she looked at Li Qi with confusion:
"…What?"

"Don't understand? That's normal. Anyway... if I could still be with you before I left, I can't now. You... should treat the doll I left behind as a child. At least it doesn't have any memories of me after I left."

Li Qi's voice was frighteningly calm, as if he weren't talking about his own affairs.

Chris opened and closed her mouth repeatedly, her expression slightly broken, and she subconsciously shook her head, seemingly unable to accept such a thing.

Li Qi also felt that he might have been a bit heartless. After all, what he said was like saying to Chris, "Your child is dead, give up."

No mother could possibly accept that.

Perhaps I should use my acting skills to make the other person happy at this moment?
Li Qi thought to himself, but he wasn't in the mood to play house with Chris at that moment.

He was currently unsure of the situation, his absorption of soul power was haphazard, and he couldn't directly leave this small world for the next. Although it wasn't impossible to leave directly, Li Qi desperately wanted to figure out what was going on.

Whether this little world truly exists or not, Li Qi won't be able to sleep even after he returns home until he figures out these questions.

It was precisely because he was in a bad mood that Li Qi was so ruthless towards Chris.

Chris was devastated by Li Qi's words and sat there staring blankly at the ceiling.

Li Qi didn't bother her.

It's normal for most people to need time to process what it's like to suddenly have their son become a stranger.

However, Chris was not given much time to be sad.

Ronnie's voice suddenly rang out in Richie's room:

"Master? Uh, and Senior Chris, could you come over here for a moment... There seems to be something ahead."

Although Ronnie's voice was suppressed with great effort, Richie could still vaguely hear a hint of shock hidden within it.

Because Li Qi's room was located on the side of the middle section of the Ark, he couldn't see what was in front of the Ark from that position. If he wanted to see what was in front of the Ark, he could only go to the main control room where Ronnie was.

Without hesitation, Li Qi got up and left.

Chris remained silent, her eyes filled with sorrow as she watched Li Qi's retreating figure, but in the end, she followed Li Qi out of the room.

"No matter what, you are still my child..."

In the final moments, Chris spoke softly behind Richard's back.

Li Qi, upon hearing this, did not react at all.

……

The rest area is not too far from the main control room.

One minute later, everyone gathered in the control room.

Without Ronnie saying anything, Li Qi glanced ahead and knew why Ronnie was shocked.

Before everyone's eyes lay countless shattered spaceship fragments.

These remains look somewhat similar to the Ark, with each one almost identical in appearance.

They were shattered into countless pieces, the fragments of which densely covered the starry sky before us.

Moreover, these wrecks appear to stretch endlessly; no matter which direction you look from, all you can see is an endless wall of wreckage.

This is a vast and boundless 'graveyard' made up of the remains of spaceships.

"I...we just drove here and saw these."

Ronnie explained to Richie after he arrived.

Li Qi frowned as he stared at the spaceship wreckage, then looked at Number Five: "Can we avoid this wreckage and continue forward?"

"can."

Number Five is concise and to the point.

Li Qi said directly, "Then let's avoid these wreckages and keep moving forward."

Number Five didn't say anything, but turned to look at Ronnie.

Her contractor is Ronnie, so she must listen to Ronnie's opinions when it comes to matters concerning the Ark as a whole.

However, Ronnie, who trusted Li Qi completely, didn't hesitate at all and directly said to Number Five:
"Just do as Master says."

Number Five then connected to the spaceship's gravity system to clear away the wreckage before him, carving a path through the endless debris towards an unknown direction.

The wreckage was cleared aside, and the Ark moved through the passageway. The people inside the spaceship observed the outside environment, each with a solemn expression.

Looking at the wreckage outside, Carol asked Ronnie:
"How is this going?"

"Um... Senior Carol, even if you ask me, I don't know either."

Ronnie stared at Carol speechlessly.

Carol bit her lip and looked outside: "But...aren't these wreckages similar to the Ark?"

When Carol finished speaking, everyone fell silent, including Richard.

Li Qi's gaze shifted to Number Five.

Number Five also looked at Li Qi, and their eyes met in the air. The two, both belonging to the relics, were having a conversation that no one else could hear.

"Do you know what's going on?" Li Qi asked.

Number Five shook his head slightly: 'I don't know. Logically speaking... the Ark is a unique spaceship on this planet, so there shouldn't be any similar ones...'

It's a bit unreasonable to expect Number Five to know what happened here.

The creator who created the relics never even left his own planet, along with these relics themselves. So how could Number Five possibly know what lies beyond this star system?
So... did the creator of the relics use these original fragments to replicate Relic No. 5, the Ark, or... are all the fragments here... the Ark?
If it's the former, then it's easier to talk about.

But if it's the latter...

That would make things very, very scary...
