Chapter 411 Pocket Universe
Leisen now felt he couldn't guess what this alien visitor was thinking. He had initially thought the other party was as cautious as himself, but now it seemed that the other party was more like a madman.
He gave Tang Zijun a strange look. "Why are you asking this? Don't tell me you're planning to directly target Pocket Universe."
"I do have that plan," Tang Zijun answered truthfully without denying anything.
Upon hearing this, Leisen leaned back tactically, looking as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
He's certain now.
The guy in front of me is definitely a madman.
After a while, he slowly broke the silence. "You need to understand, the Pocket Universe is a place that wastelanders would rather die than enter. Creatures like us, once we step into that realm, can only be manipulated by those androids."
"Didn't you say that no one can escape from that pocket universe? Then how do you know what's going on inside that realm?" Tang Zijun asked casually.
"This is something you can figure out almost without thinking," Leisen glanced at Tang Zijun. "Those guys have reached an unbelievable level of computing power; they can even manipulate space and time at will..."
'
"Based on this, the technology and resources contained in a pocket universe completely under their control should be self-evident."
Tang Zijun stroked her chin. "...A divine realm built with technology?"
What he couldn't be sure of was the extent to which those intelligent beings had researched the authority of the gods, but judging from the current situation, they clearly held a controllable world in their hands.
If Leisen's guess is correct, then this so-called pocket universe should be the world created by those mechanical gods imitating the divine realm.
In this pocket universe, all the changes in gravity, magnetism, strong and weak interactions, and even the changes in higher and lower dimensions should be under the control of those artificial gods.
Are they trying to create a magical world by mastering the fundamental rules of the universe? Or are they trying to discover new energy sources in this environment?
Tang Zijun wasn't entirely sure about this, but he knew that many of his current doubts could be resolved in that pocket universe.
Thinking of this, Tang Zijun slowly raised her head. "...So, do you know about the entrance to that pocket universe?"
"You already know how dangerous the Pocket Universe is, why would you still go in and die?" Leisen's words were full of incomprehension.
"Just consider it an excuse for wanting to die knowing why," Tang Zijun said with a smirk. "Regardless, since we are the last two people on our planet, our research value should be significant. I think that based on that, those mechanical gods won't let us go."
"You seem to know your stuff quite well." Leisen felt like he was starting to understand.
The kid in front of him was probably already in despair. Rather than living in fear and fleeing in the wasteland, only to be captured by those omnics, or dying mysteriously in some corner of the world, he probably preferred to actively contact the mechanical gods and find a chance to survive.
In fact, this kind of thing is quite common in the wasteland. There are many humans who betray life and actively surrender to mechanical life forms to seek protection.
After reaching this conclusion, Lei Sen's admiration for Tang Zijun disappeared, replaced by a sense of rejection and distance.
"I can tell you the entrance to the Pocket Universe, but you have to let me go first. Don't worry, I won't attack you, because there's no need for beings like you who are willing to die."
Upon hearing this, Tang Zijun didn't think much of it and instead gestured for Xiao Xiao to untie the ropes binding the other person.
After talking with this wastelander for so long, he could tell that although the other party did show a hint of killing intent when he first woke up, it had slowly disappeared now.
Since the other party is not prepared to take action, there is no need to tie him up any further.
Most importantly, Tang Zijun wasn't afraid of this guy suddenly attacking. Through observation, he could determine that the other party was just a powerful ordinary person. Perhaps the other party was carrying some kind of highly lethal weapon, but Tang Zijun was confident that he could kill the other party before he could make a move.
Noticing the gesture Tang Zijun gave her, Xiao Xiao obediently stepped forward to untie Lei Sen.
The scene he had imagined—the other party suddenly taking him hostage—did not happen. Instead, Leisen calmly moved his slightly numb wrist.
"...I was thinking of finding a campsite to rest for a while, but since you've taken over this place, there's no need for me to stay here. I'm not used to moving around with other creatures."
With that, Leisen got up and walked to his bag. He didn't even look at the laser gun, but instead put the supplies that had been found into his backpack one by one.
Tang Zijun turned her head slightly. "You still haven't told me where the entrance to the Pocket Universe is..."
Snapped.
Before she could finish speaking, Tang Zijun saw Lei Sen throw a silver device at her. After confirming that it wasn't explosives or anything like that, Tang Zijun reached out and caught it, making a crisp sound.
At that moment, Leisen's voice also came over.
"This thing is a bio-language translator. It can automatically translate language by sensing the other person's brainwaves, while simultaneously converting its own language into the other person's language. It also has some text translation capabilities..."
Translator?
Tang Zijun raised an eyebrow. He now understood why his communication with the other party had been so smooth. It turned out that he hadn't brought his personal translator with him, and the translator was on the other side.
If the other person's Chinese was transmitted via brainwaves through a translator, then Leisen's distinct dialect would make sense.
Ignoring Tang Zijun's contemplation, Leisen continued, "That map is one I've used for years during my wasteland operations. It's fully marked, including the location of the Pocket Universe entrance you're looking for."
"Didn't you say that technological products can't be used in the wasteland? Isn't this kind of translator a kind of technology?" Tang Zijun asked curiously.
"Long-distance communication devices and smart technologies cannot be used in the wasteland. Devices that rely on brainwaves for translation are not included." After giving a casual explanation, Leisen immediately slung the laser gun over his shoulder and turned to walk out of the cave.
He walked quickly, as if he didn't want to stay there for even a moment longer.
"I'm leaving now." Tang Zijun gave Lei Sen's retreating figure a long look. For some reason, he suddenly sensed a significant change in the other man's attitude towards him. "You don't want the map anymore?"
"You can have it." Leisen said without turning his head.
Before long, Leisen's figure disappeared into the darkness, and the heavy footsteps gradually faded away.
Nuomi couldn't help but poke Tang Zijun's trouser leg.
"Are we just going to let him leave like that? Won't he tell the robots our location?"
"I'm afraid what you're worried about is also what he's worried about."
"What do you mean?"
Tang Zijun smiled. "That guy probably misunderstood that I was going to join the mechanical god, which is why he left in such a hurry."
"Huh?" Nuomi tilted her head. "Why would he think that?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's because very few people in this world would actively want to access the Pocket Universe like I have. Didn't you hear what he just said? This is no different from suicide." Tang Zijun shrugged.
"Since you knew it was suicide, why did you still go?" Nuomi asked疑惑地问道.
"Because I have a reason to go," Tang Zijun said with a smile, patting Nuomi's head. "This distorted world has begun to expand outwards, and I need to figure out whether those mechanical gods will pose a threat to our world."
At this moment, Xiao Xiao also came to her senses. She had just received too much information that shattered her worldview, and it was only now that she realized what was happening.
Looking up at Tang Zijun, Xiao Xiao's face tensed slightly. "Brother Tang, what Lei Sen said earlier about the missing part of this universe..."
"Ah, it's you guys." Tang Zijun nodded slightly, then added, "It seems that this Yu Shen doesn't have the power of the Outer Path Demons and the Shadow Clan, nor does he possess natural powers like magical girls and rainbow crystal flowers."
"Does the absence of magic have such a significant impact on a universe?" Xiao Xiao asked curiously.
Tang Zijun shook her head and slowly stood up. "Xiao Xiao, you need to know that this world lacks more than just magic. Without the authority of gods, this universe has been a deformed existence from the moment it was born."
"Then why is our universe different? Why doesn't our world have gods now?"
"That's hard to say..." Tang Zijun muttered to himself, then smiled at Xiao Xiao and continued.
"Our world did indeed experience Ragnarok, but we still have you."
"The power of magical girls represents miracles, courage, and hope. Even though the era of mythology has ended, don't you still use your extraordinary powers to fight on the front lines against evil?"
"So, our responsibility is really that great..." Xiao Xiao said in disbelief.
However, Nuomi jumped onto the rock in complete agreement. "That's right, exactly like that."
Xiao Xiao ignored Nuomi's flattery; she simply clenched her fists. "I understand. I'll try my best too, Brother Tang. Let's explore the Pocket Universe together!"
"No." Tang Zijun shook her head slightly.
"Eh?"
Xiao Xiao was stunned by Tang Zijun's decisive refusal.
Then Tang Zijun continued, "The Pocket Universe is, after all, the domain of those mechanical gods. You've seen the power they wield before; it's definitely not something you can handle right now. So this time, I'll go alone."
