The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

The internal strife of this civilization shattered everything, destroying its very foundation, forcing the entire civilization to start from scratch.

Starting over is no easy task. The atomized civilization, reduced to a tool, has provided great convenience to this macro-civilization, but at the same time, it has also created great obstacles to the reshaping of civilization.

In the postwar era, whoever had more atomic machinery at their disposal possessed greater military power and social influence.

Thus, on the ruins left by internal strife, this civilization rebuilt another kind of civilized society.

According to Lin Feng's own understanding, it should be called a 'fantasy civilization'.

In the years that followed, whether by accident or out of the rulers' selfish desires, knowledge was sealed and degraded, because the enslaved atomized civilization had been forgotten, and even the fact that the world was made of atoms had been forgotten. These atomic machines under their control were renamed 'mysterious energy'.

Through meditative cultivation, one can absorb the "mysterious energy" of heaven and earth into one's own body, thereby becoming a powerful figure capable of shaking the universe and moving mountains and filling seas.

No matter when, force will always be the most direct and authoritative power. As the number of so-called strong people in this civilized society increases, the overall style of the civilization begins to lean towards fantasy. Everyone is trying to absorb and control more atomic machines to make themselves stronger, while books on mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology become unorthodox methods.

So much so that the entire history of the civilization was changed. These people believed that the past of the civilization was the same as the present, with everyone absorbing Xuan Qi to cultivate and everyone becoming stronger through Xuan Qi. They even established a clear hierarchy based on the strength of their control over atomic machinery.

Lin Feng is completely unconcerned about the value of this civilization; all he wants to do is take a look at this fantastical and bizarre civilization that has appeared in the Three-Body universe.

In the Three-Body universe, the survival of civilization is paramount, so the emergence of such a drastically different civilization has truly piqued Lin Feng's curiosity.

“Now that we’ve confirmed there’s no danger, let’s go take a look at this civilization,” Lin Feng said to Edith.

Lin Feng and Edith, through immersive direct manipulation of the sophon at the destination, indirectly arrived at their destination.

Old Pan and his team received Lin Feng. Through their subsequent reports, Lin Feng learned that this fantasy civilization also possessed the ability to colonize interstellar space.

However, unlike ordinary interstellar colonies, they do not build spaceships. Instead, they use atomic machinery to open a temporary wormhole that can accommodate one person at a time.

This technology was not created by this fantastical civilization, but is a legacy of the previous civilization. However, each time it is used, the disturbance of spacetime will disrupt the quantum entanglement state of the atomic machinery, so each use requires a huge amount of atomic machinery.

According to Lao Pan and his team's investigations over the years, this fantasy civilization has a total of eight colony planets, distributed in different corners of the current galaxy, varying in size.

These are not colonies established by this fantasy civilization, but rather legacies left by the previous civilization. In the eyes of this fantasy civilization, these eight colony planets are the most fertile places to live in the universe, so how could they possibly establish any new colonies?

Although the sophon orbited the planet at the speed of light and observed the entire planet, Lin Feng could see everything that everyone in this civilization was doing on this planet.

For example, things like murder and robbery, and the idea that one's fate is in one's own hands, are commonplace on this planet.

What impressed Lin Feng the most was the scene where a certain family's good-for-nothing, after failing to achieve anything no matter how hard he tried, was publicly humiliated and dumped by his fiancée, who shouted the words, "Don't underestimate a young man's potential."

It has to be said that the universe is truly vast, and that humanity's wildest ideas have one day been reenacted in reality.

Chapter 380 Dimensional Reduction Engine

After observing for almost a year, some unusual changes caught Lin Feng's attention.

It was a continent with an area equivalent to five times the size of Australia. A giant rose from the ground, its entire body resembling clouds and mist. According to Lin Feng's brief analysis, this giant was composed of atomic machinery.

"Hahahaha, I, the Evil Spirit Lord, have now achieved the supreme position. There is no one in this world who can catch my eye! Evil Lord, Destroyer Lord, you usurped my position back then, and today I will slaughter all your disciples and sever your lineage in this realm!"

That sound, like rolling thunder, relentlessly shook the continent, unleashing a shockwave comparable to a sandstorm that swept across the entire land.

In this fantastical civilization, countless powerful figures looked on in fear and terror towards the direction of the sound.

Some people soared through the heavens, forming a vast army to challenge the giants. But the giants, facing them, simply swung their arms, unleashing a massive shockwave and endless gales that tore all their enemies to shreds. Their blood and flesh, mixed with rain, fell from the sky, even changing the color of the earth.

"That aura... come out!"

After eliminating the enemy, the evil spirit sensed a familiar aura and looked in the direction of it.

Then, on this continent, another giant rose from the ground, his body resembling clouds and mist, just like the Evil Spirit Lord.

"Hehehe, this land is not yet yours to rule over."

"Xiao?! You...you actually crossed the Great Perfection realm and obtained a Venerable position?! This is impossible, this is impossible!"

The giant who called himself the Evil Spirit Lord suddenly turned ferocious, and his roar boomed like thunder in the sky, deafening everyone who heard it.

Recalling the hardships he had endured and the great price he had paid, even betraying his closest loved ones, to achieve his current success, how could the Evil Spirit Lord accept that his mortal enemy had so easily obtained the same position as him?

"Nothing is impossible; it's all about timing and fate."

Xiao laughed heartily, his voice booming like thunder, just like the Evil Spirit Lord had just done, his power sweeping across the eight wastelands, causing all things in heaven and earth to change color.

"Fate?" The Evil Spirit Lord sneered, releasing a terrifying aura that swept away the clouds in the sky, splitting it in two. The sky was clear for miles, the earth trembled, and countless cracked valleys appeared on the continent beneath the feet of the two giants.

"I have torn heaven and earth apart, so what can your so-called destiny do to me? How utterly laughable!"

"If Heaven and Earth oppose me, I will oppose Heaven! If the people oppose me, I will destroy the world! I will slaughter all living beings under Heaven until there is no one left to rebel!"

After saying this, the two enormous creatures engaged in a fierce battle, with surging shockwaves spreading out from them and destroying everything in their path.

Today, one of the two supreme beings will surely perish!

……

Lin Feng certainly wouldn't miss this grand spectacle, so he invited everyone to watch the show from the sidelines. However, they couldn't communicate due to the language barrier. Just like on Earth, where there are Chinese and English, this civilization is divided into various races, tribes, and families, and its language system is several times larger than that on Earth.

Some languages ​​have already been translated, some are still being translated, and some haven't been translated at all.

"What are they saying? Can any of you translate?" Lin Feng asked.

Captain Wang, the leader of the Photon Squad, said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Taylor, this civilization's text is quite large. We can only translate it in fragments right now. They seem to be talking about the sky, the earth, and killing."

"Huh? The sky and the earth, shouldn't we be talking about the universe next? How did it get related to murder?" Lin Feng was a little confused.

"I don't know, they probably just went off-topic," Old Pan said dismissively.

Just then, Edith interrupted Lin Feng and the others' conversation.

"Feng, they seem to be tired of fighting and don't want to continue."

Two towering giants stood facing each other on the earth, and faint, colored gas continuously flowed towards them from all things in heaven and earth.

Meanwhile, the people of this civilization began to shrivele and gradually become mummies, wailing in despair.

Not only the people in this civilization, but also the animals are writhing in despair, then gradually collapsing from exhaustion and convulsing, turning into mummies. Plants are also withering at a visible rate.

"What did these two do?" Lin Feng asked.

“They are seizing all the atomic machinery on this planet,” Edith said, revealing what the two giants were doing.

Atomic machinery is a microscopic machine, but it is also made of atoms and possesses the physical properties of atoms.

Through material interaction, some of the atomic machinery on this planet has been integrated into all life forms on the planet. What the two giants are doing is constantly and forcibly extracting the atomic machinery from everyone's body.

"They're slaughtering their own civilization? Why?" Old Pan asked curiously.

"It should be related to what they were just talking about," Captain Wang replied speculatively.

Old Pan replied irritably, "Nonsense, who doesn't know they slaughtered their own people because of that conversation? What I want to ask is, why did they destroy their own civilization?"

……

The two giants fought fiercely and were evenly matched. When the Evil Spirit Lord saw that the battle was about to become a protracted war, he began to plunder the profound energy of all living beings without restraint. While absorbing the depleted profound energy, he sneered and mocked his mortal enemy.

"Hehehe, junior, you are far inferior to the Destroyer of yesteryear. You cannot defeat me! Once I have absorbed all the profound energy of all living beings in this world, your death will be imminent!"

"Idiot! You think I'm bound by convention? What you can do, I can do too!"

Under the astonished gaze of the Evil Spirit Lord, Xiao also began to wantonly plunder the profound energy between heaven and earth for his own use.

"You...you dare to be so rebellious!" The Evil Spirit Lord trembled with rage. He never expected that his mortal enemy could be so despicable.

"I have no choice but to do this in order to get rid of you, this scourge of the world. All living beings will surely be able to understand me, but you are different. You will be condemned by all living beings and eternally trapped in the cycle of reincarnation!" Xiao said.

"Utterly hypocritical! Die!"

boom!

The heavens and earth trembled, and the surging air currents swept the magma from the fissures into the sky, pouring down like a torrential rain, engulfing the entire continent in this fiery downpour.

……

"In your report, you said you've gained control of this civilization's atomic machinery. Is it possible that this civilization could take back control?" Lin Feng suddenly asked.

Team Leader Wang replied, "No, that won't happen. We seized control of the atomic machinery of this civilization by using more microscopic sophons to collide with the atomic nuclei of these machines, achieving control through external physical hardware embedding. Unless this civilization has the ability to manipulate the atomic machinery to break free from the sophons embedded in the atomic nuclei as control hardware, it is impossible to regain control in any way, as it is physically impossible."

Programs cannot compare to hardware, because any program relies on hardware to run. If someone tampers with the hardware, the only solution is to address the hardware issue.

At present, this fantasy civilization clearly does not possess such technological capabilities, unless other entities get involved.

"That's good. Send these two guys who are interfering with my tour to heaven in a rather discreet way." Lin Feng assigned the task to the Photon Squad.

"Ah... how exactly do you mean to hide it?"

Old Pan was a little confused. Two enormous giants had been killed just like that. It was impossible for that not to attract attention, especially since they had caused such a huge amount of destruction.

Lin Feng asked in surprise, "You don't even understand this? It's just about sending them to their deaths in ways that don't attract attention, like choking on their own saliva, having their brains turned to mush by a sneeze, or simply causing brain death. Which kind of accidental death wouldn't work?"

Old Pan suddenly realized, "So that's what it means to be inconspicuous. Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Understood, we'll get on it right away."

Before long, the two giants on the continental plate suddenly fell silent.

With a deafening roar, the two giants dissipated and collapsed.

The Evil Spirit Lord and Xiao, who have both attained the rank of Lord, represent the highest level of power on this planet.

However, these two people who viewed all living beings as ants and who looked down upon heaven and earth were suddenly choked to death by their own saliva.

Lin Feng wanted to save this civilization not because it could continue to provide any significant value to the unified entity, but because he didn't want his live-action fantasy drama to end like this. He hadn't had enough; how could it just vanish like that? Even if there were seven other similar planets, who could guarantee that there wouldn't be any unexpected events in the universe?

Keep in mind, this is the Three-Body universe. Lin Feng wouldn't be surprised if light particles escaped at any moment.

"Maple, do you really like this civilization?" Edith asked, quite strangely.

Lin Feng replied, "I wouldn't say I like it, but rather that it's very rare, like suddenly seeing a drop of liquid water that still maintains its molecular state on a neutron star."

"By the way, Edith, did you arrange for someone to steal this civilization's technology?" Lin Feng asked, changing the subject.

Edith replied, "It's already being arranged. Among them, the high-energy wormhole generation technology that this civilization uses to achieve this through atomic machinery has helped us open up a new functional category of atomic computers. However, the drawbacks are also obvious. This method loses a huge number of atoms, and each use will inevitably destroy a large number of entangled connections of atomic computers."

When quantum entanglement was mentioned, Lin Feng had a lot to say. He asked, "Quantum entanglement is good, but it's too easy to break the connection. Is there a way to replace quantum entanglement?"

Edith replied, "That would require faster-than-light travel, but so far, faster-than-light travel is nothing more than wormholes, which bypass the speed of light limit and achieve faster-than-light travel through spacetime shortcuts. Strictly speaking, wormholes are not faster-than-light travel; this technology simply provides matter with a shortcut to its destination more quickly."

"So far, the only truly observed superluminal speeds are those caused by the expansion of spacetime and quantum entanglement."

Lin Feng said, "If everyone can access a stable micro-wormhole anytime, anywhere, the reliance on quantum entanglement will inevitably decrease significantly."

Edith replied, "It's feasible. Some of the wormhole attacks by the Radiant Civilization used this method. However, ensuring the long-term and stable existence of a large number of micro wormholes is no less difficult than directly investing a massive amount of energy to create multiple long-term and stable super-large wormholes..."

Just as Edith was about to explain this model to Lin Feng in detail, she suddenly stopped and then opened a communication channel for Lin Feng.
