Chapter 109 Time-Space Inspection Division, Ancient Civilization?
"Can't we arbitrarily change or interfere with the world?"
Liu Bai was slightly taken aback.
He wasn't surprised that the singularity could travel to the past; Zhao Li had told him about it when he came.
The singularity connects the past and the present, and has two points: an entrance and an exit.
The entrance is in the starry sky, while the exit is near the monument where a certain civilization descended.
Of course, one point worth mentioning is that the entry point is not affected by time.
The entrance may appear in the future of the starry sky, or it may appear in the past of the starry sky.
Just like...
The world is two-dimensional, on a piece of paper.
As time goes by, the paper will gradually stretch, adding new images.
among them.
The spirit tablet is like a three-dimensional object that falls from the sky and crashes into the two-dimensional paper that is the Milky Way, creating a hole in it.
This hole is the exit of the singularity.
The entrance is like a wormhole under the paper, existing between two and three dimensions and covering the entire sheet.
When a hole appears in the paper, air or light can penetrate it, attracting the attention of insects.
When insects sense the appearance of a new burrow, they will dig tunnels upwards from their underground burrows in an attempt to find the entrance.
Finally, the insects dug a tunnel and successfully reached the point in time on the paper.
This is the entrance to the singularity.
The starry sky is like an insect nest; it doesn't exist in the past, present, or future, but you can go anywhere.
But now, a problem has arisen.
The paper has run out, and the world has no future, because the Milky Way will be destroyed in a month.
The starry sky, a place beyond the control of the past, future, and present, was also incorporated into two dimensions ten years ago under the dominance of certain civilizations.
The starry sky, therefore, possesses time.
Of course, he had only heard of these things; two-dimensional and three-dimensional were just metaphors.
Two-dimensional, just like the three-dimensional world they are in now, they are those insects.
Three-dimensional is four-dimensional, because it is unimaginable, so we can only use the substitution method to describe it.
But let's get back to the main topic.
How can you kill spirits if you don't interfere in the world?
Seeing Liu Bai staring blankly at that passage, Le Yu chuckled and sighed, "Back then, I heard that those who entered the starry sky could live forever."
"Oh? You know all this?" Liu Bai narrowed his eyes. "Weren't you the first person from your civilization to arrive here?"
Le Yu chuckled, completely ignoring Liu Bai's gaze, and explained, "It's true that I'm the first one, but my civilization—well, because it's quite wealthy, has a certain status within the Galactic Alliance."
"Your civilization has a high status, so why would you use a Star City with zero-level abilities?" Liu Bai continued to press.
Zhao Li had told him that abilities were divided into five levels, from zero to five.
All the creatures in this room came here because their abilities had not reached the first level and they were still considered ordinary creatures.
At the same time, the wider the scope of a civilization's influence, the more outrageous the savior's abilities will be. It is said that some interstellar civilizations have awakened to the second or third tier.
Therefore, if this octopus can hold a position in the Galactic Federation, it must be an interstellar civilization at least. How could it possibly come here?
"Because my abilities are utterly useless," Le Yu said matter-of-factly. "For some reason, my abilities are low-level, and I have no offensive power. Going to a high-level star city would be suicide!"
"Moreover, most of the high-level beings are enormous, some even larger than stars."
"My weak body doesn't even have the right to come close," Leyu said, pretending to be very sad, even squeezing out two black tears.
"Then can you enter the zero-level singularity? After all, you are from a high-level civilization," Liu Bai said, frowning.
Each singularity entrance can only be entered by the corresponding ability user; for example, a first-tier ability user can enter a first-tier civilization.
"Hehe, that's certainly possible."
Leyu pointed to himself with his tentacles, "Don't let my birth in a high-level civilization fool you, I'm just a defenseless octopus."
"I haven't even reached the first level, so naturally I can enter the singularity."
"I see."
Liu Bai stopped asking questions and silently looked back at the screen in front of him. He didn't know whether what the octopus said was true or false.
There's no point in asking further questions.
Back to the main point, Liu Bai was still puzzled. After a moment of silence, he turned to Le Yu beside him and asked, "Brother Yu, this says that after entering the singularity, we cannot change the world or interfere with it. So how do we kill the spirit?"
"Well, let me think about how to explain this to you—" Le Yu shook his gray-blue head, lost in thought.
After a few breaths, he looked at Liu Bai and explained, "After entering the singularity, the Time and Space Administration will monitor all the saviors in real time."
"The key point is that the Time and Space Administration has a department called the Timeline Inspection Division, which has a tool to detect whether the timeline has been disturbed."
"So as long as they don't show up, what you do while carrying out the mission indicates that you haven't interfered with the timeline."
"For example, the creatures or spirits you kill in that world, if no one stops you, then they were all supposed to die during that time period."
"And if the inspectors show up, it means that what you're trying to do will have an impact on the future of the world."
Liu Bai nodded thoughtfully and continued, "Are the people in the Patrol Division also capable of using civilized abilities?"
"No." Le Yu shook her head decisively and said, "They are different from us ability users. Most of them are creatures whose time has been altered by ability users, or beings that exist between spirit and living beings."
After saying that, he looked around with his dark eyes, leaned close to Liu Bai and whispered, "Brother Liu Bai, if you ever run into people from the Time Patrol Division, remember to give way if you can."
"They've always hated us ability users to the core! After all, most of us became inspectors because of interference from ability users."
"Moreover, because they are responsible for maintaining spatial and temporal stability, they are the highest-ranking law enforcement agency. Even within the same level, the Patrol Division is half a rank higher than any other department!"
"Okay, I understand," Liu Bai replied earnestly.
He has the ability to roll back, so he's not too afraid of this department. If the time is changed, he can simply roll back and be done with it.
After talking with Leyu, Liu Bai closed the [Savior's Taboo] page.
The other options are almost entirely unimportant.
The description of the savior training states that they will enter a relatively weak singularity and experience a mission.
During the training, a second-tier being will lead the team, responsible for ensuring the safety of the savior and ensuring the successful completion of the first mission.
As for the training time, it is scheduled for 6:00 AM tomorrow. Before that, the teams will be organized.
The rest of the content consisted of things like obeying orders and following commands, which Liu Bai glanced at briefly and then swiped past.
In the hall, as time passed, many creatures had finished reading the information and were whispering among themselves, preparing to form teams later.
Puff floated quietly to Liu Bai's right, watching the content on the screen. She really didn't know anything about it.
The Leyu, with its dark, shiny eyes, continued to observe every creature around it.
Several tens of minutes later, the robot observed that all the creatures were no longer looking at the light screen and announced loudly, "Next, team-up permissions will be enabled for your personal light screens. You can form teams at will."
"If no one is in a team after five minutes, they will be automatically assigned."
As soon as the robot's voice finished, Le Yu shook his head and said, "Brother Liu, please approve my request to team up with you."
.
[Smart and Civilized Fish is requesting to become your teammate. Has your request been approved?]
Intelligent civilization?
Liu Bai silently noted down this information, planning to research this civilization later.
As for whether it will pass —
Liu Bai thought for a moment and then clicked to approve the application.
[Puff Pastry requests to become your teammate. Accept/Disappear?]
"Brother Liu, I applied too," Puff said sweetly.
Liu Bai readily clicked "accept".
At this point, the three-person team was formed.
When Leyu saw Liu Bai pass by, a look of joy appeared on its gray-blue face, and its tentacles began to flutter.
Liu Bai then swiped open the team formation page and looked at the team leader information on the light screen.
But as soon as he looked at it, his brows furrowed.
There are three pictures on the screen.
Two of the images depict two young human beings, whose descriptions read "ancient civilization."
this----
Liu Bai paused for a moment, then turned the picture to Le Yu and asked, "Brother Yu, have you ever heard of ancient civilizations?"
"Ancient civilization?"
Upon hearing this, Le Yu's previously cheerful expression suddenly froze, and his gaze went straight to Liu Bai's light screen.
Gradually, his expression became complex, and he said solemnly, "I've heard of it."
"But—" Le Yu murmured to herself, her voice filled with doubt, "How did they get here? And aren't there always two leaders in a Level 0 civilization?"
