Chapter 1400: 462. Paradise Supreme_2
“Regardless of the situation, this means that our universe is about to stop expanding outward and even begin to collapse inward.”
The park was buzzing with comments, everyone expressing their thoughts in their own way.
Some “people” casually crushed a few planets to relieve their anxiety.
Some “people” threw marbles, hitting the virtual screen in the middle of the area, as if to express their anger at the park for sending out an exploration team. In their view, it was because of the team’s appearance that the universe was about to stop expanding.
Some “people” maintained a basic calm and joined the discussion:
“What will happen if the universe collapses inward?”
“Can we consider the collapse of the universe as a compression of our space?”
“Can a planet that we’ve already compressed be compressed again during the process of the universe’s collapse?”
“Perhaps we should move to the endpoint of the universe’s collapse, so that we can secure more time for self-rescue during the process.”
“So, where is the endpoint of the universe’s collapse? Or rather, what is the last place to be affected by the universe’s collapse?”
“We could think differently. I believe leaving this universe is also an option. We should let the exploration team cross the edge of the universe and enter outer space.”
This statement resonated in the park.
The audience requested the host to order a part of the exploration team to enter outer space.
Bad news came back quickly.
The members of the exploration team who entered outer space lost contact and did not return to the universe, as if they were completely lost in a zone without concepts of time and space.
Moreover, the exploration team discovered that, whether it was because someone had left the universe or some other reason, the light at the edge of the universe had completely stopped moving.
And the light that stopped moving outward was collectively moving backward.
They formed a Shell of Light surrounding the entire universe.
As the halted light increased, the thickness of the Shell of Light grew rapidly.
Before long, the light that had taken trillions of years to reach the edge of the universe from different regions completely overlapped.
The Shell of Light quickly evolved into a Barrier mixed with information of the entire universe’s history.
The exploration team was then within this Barrier.
Their detection equipment was cycling through the historical information they had gathered.
From the birth of one planet to the shattering of another by a meteor, to the blossoming of civilizations of Life Creatures on planets, followed by the extinction of stars, the fading of regional light, the formation of Black Holes, and so on, and so forth.
The immense amount of historical information completely inundated the exploration team and their equipment.
