Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 42 What a Big Firework

After all, Digger failed to catch the UFOs.

Even though he felt that his physical fitness was already extremely strong under the strengthening of the "system", he was still left behind by those UFOs until he couldn't see them at all.

Digger had no choice but to return home, racking his brains to think of a way to save the world.

He first wrote a short story related to "Star Devourer", and posted it on the forum, which aroused great repercussions, and soon became a well-known work with the help of the media.

The public said that another rising star of science fiction was about to rise, and there were not a few people discussing this novel.

But this is different from what Digger wants. He wants the people to have even a little sense of crisis.

So he continued to show his face in the media as a talented writer, publicly and secretly propagandizing that "a cosmic creature that can devour stars is approaching".

At first, few people believed in him, and everyone regarded it as the whimsy of a science fiction writer.

It wasn't until an insider broke the news about a strange "astronomical photo" that the whole world exploded.

"What is the huge luminous body that is approaching here? The expert explained—"

Before the host on the advertising screen could finish speaking, a hard object directly smashed the screen.

There have been a large number of panic buying incidents in a short period of time in large shopping malls. Everyone has started hoarding supplies crazily, and what's more, they have begun to build various recycling facilities for the basement.

Someone tried to promote that astronomical photo is man-made, trying to calm people down.

But then, more and more "astronomical photos" from various angles circulated on the Internet made them dumbfounded.

It turned out that an astronomical telescope worker who was desperate for the future of the planet broke the news about these photos. He himself had committed suicide when he was discovered.

But the effect he brought is undoubtedly terrifying.

More people began to try to argue that the end of the world is coming, and they found that the temperature of the entire planet is rising weakly, as if a high-heat luminous body is approaching.

Many astronomers with professional equipment have also observed the space, and finally confirmed that a "star" that has never been discovered before is approaching this galaxy at an alarming speed.

In the end, the governments of various countries had to admit that it was true, and even gave out more detailed data, as well as various manuals on how to survive after the doomsday.

The world seemed to be in despair at this moment.

Digger also sat at home blankly, unable to imagine how to save the entire civilization.

The government launched the "Continuation Plan", which aims to build a huge refuge to accommodate some people to survive the end and rebuild civilization.

Everyone is scrambling to get into the sanctuary, but only the most powerful and the best scholars get in.

Digger also unexpectedly received an invitation, and the government seemed to think that a young genius like him would be very useful for the continuation of civilization.

But he changed hands and sent the invitation letter to the next door—the family of childhood sweethearts who had been taking care of him as an orphan, and then locked himself at home, isolating himself from the outside world.

He thought that as a "chosen one", as the first person to know the news of the end of the world, he failed to make any useful measures, so he might as well just welcome the end of the world directly.

Time passed day by day, and the mysterious "giant luminous body" also came here.

Due to its arrival, the daily super time here has been extended to three quarters, but under the early warning and cooling preparations, the world is still struggling to survive.

Everyone thought that this "giant luminous body" was something like a star, and that coming to this galaxy was just a transit, and after it left, it might resume daily life here.

But Digger knew that this was just the beginning.

The stars will be devoured, and after that, it will fall into eternal winter, and the high temperature protection is only to survive the first level.

He felt that it was time for him to go out. He wanted to witness the light of the star devourer with his own eyes and witness the coming of the end.

So he went out, squinting his eyes against the bright sky.

The outdoor temperature is very high, and there is another huge light group that is more dazzling than the stars in the sky, and it is slowly passing by.

Digger didn't know how far the Star Devourer was from here, but he could already feel the heavy feeling rushing towards his face.

Just thinking about the heaviness brought about by its size made his body tremble.

But he still resisted the dazzling light and opened his eyes to look at the sky.

The sky still seemed so bright, but soon, he noticed countless phantoms, which seemed to come across countless time and space, covering the starry sky.

"That's..." The expression on Digger's face gradually changed from doubt to shock.

He could see glowing propellers and turret-like things on the virtualized shadows.

The light generated during the transition is still circulating on their ships, the blue shields are looming, and Digger can smell the strong metal and war atmosphere even across the space.

In addition, he also realized the gap between his own civilization and the opponent's, probably as humble as an ant versus as a god.

"Is there really aliens in this world?" He guessed it might be an alien fleet.And at this moment, the images and styles of aliens in various science fiction works kept flashing in his mind.

"Will they treat us as experimental subjects and capture us as living materials?"

"Could it be that in this universe, all civilizations are isolated from each other. They will not only destroy the Star Eaters, but also us to prevent their exposure?"

"Will our individuals be a kind of delicious food in the eyes of these aliens? We are actually a farm here. These aliens don't want to see their property destroyed, so they send a fleet to deal with the star devourers? "

A lot of speculation flashed by, but it all boiled down to one question: "Can they really kill Star Eater?"

Digger's heart rose to his throat. No matter what these aliens want to do to them, it will at least be a matter of the future. The most important crisis now is the star devourer.

This is a creature that can devour stars!
He looked nervously at the lost fleet in space, with fear and hope.I am apprehensive about the arrival of aliens, but I also hope that they can really successfully eliminate the star eaters.

The contradictory mentality made him always have expectations, even the high temperature outside could not make him shrink back.

The many civilizations observing here in the space are all cheered up at this time, and each of them is like a child who is eagerly looking forward to a gorgeous performance, and casts his eyes on this place.

The NO.13 enclave of Cribri has made a lot of money with the gimmick of "'Guardians' vs. 'Cosmic Horror Creatures'", but the person in charge here - Brianning, is also highly nervous , ready to send the already prepared propaganda to all parts of the galaxy at any time.

The Fire Alliance, which arrived belatedly, parked the spaceship at the edge of the galaxy, not daring to move forward.

It's not because they are afraid of the "Guardian" fleet. In fact, they have long heard that the "Guardian" is a type of lost empire that is easy to talk about. As long as they don't directly offend them, they won't be attacked.

They are afraid of star devourers, this kind of cosmic creature that can devour stars is also a terrible deterrent to them.

However, the moving star eater seemed to sense the threat, and his always glowing body dimmed at this moment, as if he was going to use energy to attack.

Losing the cover of the strong light, the real body of the star devourer began to be revealed. Although its core was still a dazzling ball of light, its body outline had gradually taken shape—it looked somewhat similar to a bacteriophage.

Before everyone watching the battle had a closer look, the core of the star eater suddenly lit up.

Its inner shell was filled with light like substance, and quickly compressed, gathering into a sea of ​​energy, ejected under high temperature and high pressure, and turned into a dazzling beam of light in the interstellar space, heading straight for the "Guardian" fleet.

Just like a star exploding and ejecting matter, this light beam also contained extremely terrifying energy, so that Digger, who was observing with the naked eye, couldn't open his eyes at all.

At this moment, his brain was completely blank, he just felt that this planet would be destroyed under this light beam, and the "Misty Alien Fleet" that just appeared might not be spared, and would be scattered like smoke in the light. go.

But for other civilizations in the interstellar world, this scene is just an appetizer. No one thinks that the fleet of the lost empire will fail. They just want to see the big scene of the explosion of the star eater.

Sure enough, the beam was blocked by the Titan flagship's shield.

As the largest spaceship in this fleet, the Titan Flagship was regarded as the primary attack target by the Star Eaters.

It's a pity that its innocuous light beam hit the shield without even splashing the slightest bit of water. Until the end, the blue shield didn't change a bit of color, and it still looked faint.

After that, the Titan flagship also aimed its main gun at the Star Eater, and energy fluctuations far stronger than it were gathering in it, quite a feeling of your side singing and our side coming on stage.

Star Devourer also noticed something, and the core part released energy again, as if wanting to fire another shot before the Titan's main cannon was fired.

But no matter how many shots it plans to make, the result is doomed.

The Titan's main cannon and the Star Devourer attacked almost simultaneously, and the light beams from both sides collided together by coincidence.

But the small water pipe of the Star Devourer was swallowed by the giant cannon in the blink of an eye, and the body was hit by the destructive beam without any accident.

I saw that the core of the star devourer, which had been stable all the time, became unstable instantly under the infusion of the light beam, flashing and flashing, and rapidly expanded to a limit.

Soon, the star devourer, who was unable to maintain the stability of his own core, was broken by the overflowing energy, and together with the core, a big explosion occurred.

A bright light that was much stronger than any previous light illuminated the entire interstellar at this moment, and countless energy radiation, electromagnetic waves, and a little body matter of the star devourer were thrown to all parts of the universe.

Just like a supernova explosion, it attracted the cheers of all civilizations.

"Okay! It exploded!"

"What a big firework!"

"This rubbish thing is finally dead! Poor our original scientist, he just passed by the galaxy where the star devourer is, and was bombarded by this damn guy with the boat and people!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... our tenth-level scientist, the 'Guardian' has avenged you..."

……

Many people are happy to see the explosion of the Star Eater, even the Tinder Alliance.They are used to staying in the interstellar, subconsciously feel that the aftermath of this kind of explosion can be blocked by a civilization.

But Digger didn't think so, and when he discovered the explosion of the Star Devourer, he still had a calm expression on his face.

First, the doomsday brought despair, then the arrival of the alien fleet brought hope, then fell into despair because of the beam of the star eater, and then ignited hope because the alien fleet easily eliminated the star eater.

After witnessing a brief space war, he now only feels that this life is worthwhile, so he closes his eyes and prepares for the real doomsday.

At this time, his "system" that had been silent for a long time rang again.

[The main task has been updated: become the chief scientist here]

At this moment, Li Wenyuan, who was looking at the "big firework" with satisfaction, remembered that there was an indigenous civilization behind him, so he asked the Titan flagship to deploy a shield in front of the planet.
