Chapter 1464: Afterword 1: Truth Club

“Even though we keep jumping lines, in reality, we never face the same Piling Civilization on each world line; interestingly, every Piling Civilization on these world lines is doing the same thing—fighting another advanced civilization, driving in Millennium Stakes, locking history, and preventing sneak attacks.”

“[The Piling Civilizations don’t care about other world lines; they just need to ensure the history of their own world line is locked; just like us, we won’t care about other failed world lines, we need to strive to open a world line with a tomorrow, with a future.]”

“So, from the root, our philosophy is in complete conflict with that of the Piling Civilizations.”

Gao Yang was thoughtful.

He nodded twice:

“I understood this issue, it’s similar to saving a game, right?”

“When I was a kid playing games, I always liked to save after defeating a boss or passing a level; this is also a form of locking history, isn’t it?”

“However, what I don’t understand is, when the Piling Civilization drives in the Millennium Stakes, why do it on Earth?”

“Because Earth is remote enough, backward enough.”

Lin Xian explained,

“Think about it, the opponent of the Piling Civilization is also an equally matched, well-balanced advanced civilization; so, if the Piling Civilization thought of using Millennium Stakes to lock history, wouldn’t the other side think of that too?”

“Therefore, the opposing civilization is also driving in Millennium Stakes, and then the Piling Civilization tries to dismantle the opponent’s Millennium Stakes, and the opponent civilization tries to dismantle the Piling Civilization’s Millennium Stakes.”

“So, obviously, under these circumstances, whoever hides their Millennium Stakes better, and makes them harder to find has a higher success rate of locking history.”

“No doubt, Earth is absolutely the best place to drive stakes; the location of the Solar System in the Milky Way Galaxy is so remote, so barren, in the very corner… it belongs to a corner in the universe that wouldn’t be noticed at all.”

“If it weren’t for Einstein calculating 42, triggering some detection mechanism of the Piling Civilization, they might not have discovered the human civilization hidden in the corner for hundreds or thousands of years.”

“As proven, the choice of the Piling Civilization was correct; according to their original plan, the Millennium Stakes indeed ran steadily on Earth for over 600 years, until it finally lost stability, and had to be driven manually, all without being discovered by the enemy.”

Gao Yang started to feel sleepy.

“Such a hassle.”

He muttered,

“The methods of warfare of these advanced civilizations are too abstract. Fighting face-to-face, protecting history, pulling timelines, and both driving and dismantling stakes at the same time.”

“But this is probably the history of civilization development; early humans fought with stones and bones; later, in the feudal society, it was about tactical formations, then modern warfare no longer required charges… In our era, warfare has become dominated by drones and long-range missiles, requiring radars, electronic countermeasures, signal jamming, satellite assistance; actually, that’s also quite a hassle.”

“Oh~~~~~”

Gao Yang suddenly made a goose-like sound, snapped his fingers:

“I figured it out! I figured out why it’s so troublesome to drive a Millennium Stake and it can only last 600 years… because they drive stakes too [frequently], too [often]! They depleted the lifespan of the Millennium Stakes prematurely.”

“Just like some people’s gaming habits, being cautious and careful enough, so much that they save every step they take, afraid of unexpected setbacks.”

“Exactly.”

Lin Xian gave Gao Yang a thumbs up:

“The normal lifespan of a Millennium Stake shouldn’t be this short; if you drive a stake every 100 years, the lifespan would be at least several times longer.”

“Of course, CC and Chu Anqing becoming unstable as a Millennium Stake should also have other factors, but I think driving stakes too frequently is indeed the main reason, as locking history consumes a lot of energy.”

“In fact, Liu Feng and Gao Wen have guessed many things correctly. From 1952, when the first stake was driven to lock history, continued until 2624, the last Millennium Stake CC became unstable to the point where it could no longer be driven automatically.”

“So, that World-Ending White Light was manually driven here by the Piling Civilization to drive the stake, while incidentally destroying human civilization, completing the final lock on history and cleaning up the scene.”

“After destroying Earth and human civilization, the next step, the Piling Civilization will certainly continue to look for suitable places to drive stakes, continue to drive the next Millennium Stake, continue to lock the history for the next few hundred years.”

“We humans are neither the first Millennium Stake nor the last one for the Piling Civilization. After all, the Piling Civilization is at war, and for the sake of safety, the intervals between drivings are very short, and the saves are very frequent, so the consumption of Millennium Stakes is also very high.”

“Damn!”

Gao Yang gritted his teeth and cursed:

“They’re such fucking bastards!”

“By the way… how do you know all these things? Did you figure it out with that guitar string, silk thread of 42?”

Lin Xian shook his head:

“Only a small part is, actually most of the information and truth were told to me by others.”

?

“Others?”

Gao Yang tilted his head:

“You’ve become a ’god’, brother, is there anyone on Earth more awesome than you?”

“Probably not on Earth.”

Lin Xian smiled slightly:

“But just because there’s none on Earth, doesn’t mean there’s none in the universe…”
