Chapter 410: Apocalyptic Origin

Previously, he had obtained fragments of the Scribe’s past from the Wound, roughly describing the history of the Scribe’s transformation from a civilization that spread the seeds of civilization everywhere to the Exterminator Civilization.
This fragment only briefly described the origins of the Scribe. It directly started from their space era, making Li Wenyuan mistakenly think that the origins of the Scribe were ordinary, just like ordinary space civilizations.
However, how could this civilization that could monitor countless galaxies and achieve a portion of the Power of Creation be ordinary?
This pieced-together Doomsday Prophecy Monument recorded the Scribe’s unusual origin.
Li Wenyuan felt that if this origin had a name, it would probably be named Doomsday Calamity.
The scribes were born after the Extractor, but they were inextricably linked to the Extractor. The bacteria corpses landed on some primitive planets and became one of the root causes of life.
It was hard to imagine what kind of changes the genetic material in the bacteria corpses had undergone to form another life origin, and it was the origin of a kind of super-speed evolution.
The star in the center became unstable because of the Extractor. Logically speaking, the lifespan of such a star was not enough to support the complete evolution of life. It would destroy everything with a supernova explosion before that.
However, there might be some reality code in the Extractor’s genes that they didn’t care about. It made the creatures on the planet evolve quickly and formed a civilization before the supernova explosion.
According to the Doomsday Prophecy Monument, there were four civilizations that had entered the pre-space era almost at the same time as the Scribe, and they were all in the same galaxy.
Such a dense evolution of civilization clearly couldn’t be formed naturally. This was most likely the effect of a certain part of the Extractor’s reality code that could determine the origin.
These civilizations had noticed unstable stars before entering the space era. In their only alien survey of other uninhabited planets in the galaxy, they discovered that they were the lucky ones. For various reasons, they avoided the mass extinction event caused by the violent turbulence of the stars.
However, they were both lucky and unfortunate because their scientists discovered that the central star seemed to have reached its limit. Soon, a real supernova explosion would occur and destroy their civilization.
These civilizations began to think of ways to escape. At that time, there was no hyperspace channel here. A spaceship might take hundreds or thousands of years to reach the nearest star system. They could not be sure if there were suitable habitable planets in those star systems.
But even so, they had to continue, because such a natural disaster was something they could not resist at all.
Then, the civilizations at that time, including the Scribe, had no choice but to make cruel choices. Before the supernova explosion, the number of tinder spaceships they could produce was really limited. They could only choose some people to become pioneers of the New World.
Most of the remaining people would be buried in the apocalypse.
When he saw this, Li Wenyuan felt a strong sense of deja vu again.
This apocalyptic origin of a scribe was somewhat similar to the origin of the Pyro Alliance in the Milky Way.
It was all because of external reasons that they had no choice but to give up their mother planet and most of the people in the civilization, allowing the tinder of a small number of civilizations to rebuild their civilization with difficulty.
In fact, the Pyro Alliance’s origin was even more peaceful. This was because the external cause they encountered was the Silent, who had become autistic for some reason. The Silent wouldn’t destroy their planet. They would only knock them back to the natives’ era and lockdown technology.
Although this was a huge blow to an interstellar civilization, it was not life-threatening.
In fact, later on, the Pyro Alliance also visited their mother planet. Although it was already a group of people who could be said to be completely different from them, they still had a blood connection with them.
However, what the Scribe encountered was an apocalyptic origin that was even more despairing. Apart from speeding evolution, the Extractor’s genes left them with supernovas that were about to erupt.
Perhaps for them, it would be better not to evolve so quickly. As primitive lifeforms who knew nothing, dying might be much better than the despair of facing the apocalypse.
In the end, only a limited number of spaceships escaped the Storm Origin Galaxy one after another. There were Scribe spaceships and civilizations that were born at the same time as them.
Their initial civilization also dissipated with the supernova explosion, leaving only the Doomsday Prophecy Monument carved by a group of madmen in the chaotic world.
These crazies had recorded everything about them in detail with nagging prophecies. It was hard to say if they were awake or crazy at that time.
There was no lack of vicious words in the prophecy that cursed the civilized government for not choosing them to board and leave the spaceship. However, there was also hope that the people of the New World could continue their will to survive.
The contradictory mentality was vividly displayed on this alloy tablet. Li Wenyuan felt that if this tablet was completely glued together, it would be an archeological relic with deep sentimental value.
“…So that’s how it is. Then, the relevant scenes I saw in the void was the Scribe civilization that found a new place to develop after this matter…”
“Is that also the reason for their initial actions of sowing civilization everywhere? Is it because they didn’t wish for another civilization to suffer such a calamity? This is so similar to the Pyro Alliance…”
“Then…what caused the scribe civilization’s temperament to change drastically? From one extreme to another…Perhaps this can only be explained after meeting the scribe in person…”
Li Wenyuan had a faint feeling that this might be related to the space-time anomaly that enveloped this Exile Galaxy.
In the records related to the Extractor, he didn’t find anything related to this strange space-time anomaly.
Previously, he thought that this was a kind of origin because the flow of time in this abnormal space-time area was different from the outside world. It could significantly accelerate the development of internal civilizations, allowing them to have faster progress and a better foundation than other civilizations after coming to the universe outside the galaxy.
However, from the looks of it, that didn’t seem to be the case. In the era of the Extractor, the passage of time here was normal.
He felt that something might have happened later that caused the abnormality here and made the Scribe go crazy.
For some reason, Li Wenyuan suddenly thought of the foreign will that humans had mentioned. This thought flashed through his mind, but it was enough for him to record it in an important position in the virtual world.
“…Perhaps the end is about to begin….”
