Chapter 1103 -18 The Late Comet (Extra for the Alliance Leader Trapped by Heart’s Gate!)_2
This small blue electric sphere, bound within a basketball-sized transparent device, was very calm, stable, and idle.
Despite emitting a dazzling blue light.
But there were no active electric charges on it, rather, it was like willow twigs in the wind, numerous blue filaments swaying extremely slowly on the surface of the sphere, seemingly moving yet not.
Lin Xian was very familiar with the Space-Time Particles, and he recognized them at a glance.
It was a…
Space-Time Particle without energy.
And it was just an ordinary Space-Time Particle, not an entangled state.
So.
This was precisely the matter he had been worried about, but hadn’t explained to Gao Wen back then—
[If one does not use the special Entangled State of Time-Space Particles, even if traveling back to the past, due to the constraints of the Space-time Law, one can’t interfere with any history.]
Gao Wen and Chen Heping were both unaware of this point.
The reason was that they were merely theorists, lacking sufficient experimental data to grasp the Space-time Law.
But now, it was useless to say anything.
This was not only an ordinary Space-Time Particle but also a Space-Time Particle without energy.
Even if it were taken back…
It could not activate the Time Shuttle Machine.
“Ah.”
Lin Xian sighed inexplicably.
I don’t know how to face the expectant Gao Wen after returning.
Gao Wen must believe that as long as the Space-Time Particles are obtained, humanity would be saved, and the future could be changed.
But this energy-less Space-Time Particle directly shattered the ideals that Gao Wen and Chen Heping had dedicated half their lives to.
“In any case, let’s bring it back first.”
Lin Xian smashed the exhibit glass, took out the transparent device containing the Space-Time Particle, and returned according to the original plan together with Big Face Cat, Xu Yiyi, and CC.
…
City of Sin.
Even late at night, the entire city was bustling with excitement, everyone celebrating the success of the operation.
Only in the lowest level dungeon, inside Gao Wen’s laboratory, Lin Xian, CC, and Gao Wen had no expression on their faces.
Gao Wen let out a breath through his nose.
Raising his head from the experimental table with a look of loss:
“This Space-Time Particle… has no energy.”
“Yes.”
Lin Xian nodded:
“I’m sorry, Gao Wen, I don’t know what to say to comfort you, but to tell you the truth, even if this Space-Time Particle was filled with energy, it would still be just an ordinary Space-Time Particle, and even if a transmigrator were sent back, it wouldn’t be able to change any history under the constraints of the Space-time Law.”
Afterward, Lin Xian briefly explained the relevant Space-time Law to Gao Wen.
Gao Wen listened attentively.
Absorbed in thought.
Intelligent as he was, he quickly understood:
“So that’s how it is.”
He sighed deeply:
“The Space-time Law is indeed too profound, something Chen Heping and I hadn’t thought of. It turns out… Space-Time Particles are far more complex than the two of us thought.”
“If only we could have gotten the Space-Time Particles earlier, just a bit earlier… maybe then we could understand a lot of things, find other ways to save the world, to save the future.”
“Eh? Wait a moment.”
Gao Wen suddenly realized something, pushed his glasses up, and looked at Lin Xian:
“If what you say about the Space-time Law is correct, then there emerges a contradiction here… logically speaking, history is fixed, but the future is uncertain.”
“So, starting from this moment as we speak, the things that happened before are like water spilled, irretrievable and unalterable; yet the words we have yet to utter after this sentence still have the chance to be changed, or we could just keep silent and not say them.”
“This means that the future is uncertain, an unarrived path. Under this premise—”
“[Time travel can only go to a fixed past; it can never go towards an unoccurred future with no reachable pathways!]”
“So, Lin Xian, how then did you manage to travel to the future?”
Gao Wen’s logic was clear, yet his question was perplexing:
“You mentioned, you said you and Lady Du Yao lived in the same era, which is also the mid-21st century. And now it’s 2624, for you, it’s the future 600 years later… how did you cross over here?”
…
Indeed.
Emperor Gao Wen is truly Emperor Gao Wen.
Upon hearing about the Space-time Law, he immediately started to deduce and brought up the biggest BUG with Lin Xian.
“That’s right.”
Lin Xian smiled wryly:
“Actually, in my era, I and the scientists around me realized this problem, that time travel can only go to the past, not to the future.”
“But the problem with me is just so strange, and not just me…”
He turned his head to look at CC:
“CC is the same, she was born in 2604, but since the moment of her birth, she has had memories of certain worlds in 2624.”
“If we really get down to it, isn’t this another form of traveling to the future? Just like what happened to me, equally unscientific.”
Lin Xian really couldn’t find anything he and CC had in common.
It can’t be…
[That CC and I are both Millennium Stakes, right?]
That’s too absurd.
I safely turned 20 years old just a few years ago and haven’t shown any signs of fading away; how could I possibly be a Millennium Stake?
Shaking off this impractical thought, Lin Xian walked over and comforted Gao Wen:
“Gao Wen, actually, there’s no need for you to be so pessimistic.” freёnovelkiss.com
“Although this Time Shuttle Machine of yours can’t be used, that is the reason for my time-space journey… Your efforts, as well as those of Big Face Cat’s father Chen Heping, have not been in vain! Definitely not in vain!”
“I will copy all the theories and engineering blueprints of your Time Shuttle Machine back to the year 2024 where I am from, and then, in that era, we will create the Time Shuttle Machine.”
