The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 1945 Past Experiences

After recovering those memories of the past, Leo spent a long time studying his origin, that is, the period when humans were still apes living in trees and had not come down to the ground.

However, the memories of that period could provide him with too little information, because he had no wisdom at all at that time, and he did things according to instinct. Also because his brain was not developed, he could remember very few things, and among these pitiful memories, most of them were memories that he was very reluctant to recall and would rather forget, such as the process of apes courting, etc.

There is no doubt that from his current perspective, all the actions of himself in the ape period were inhuman behaviors that were unbearable to look at. Even if he had a good heart, it would be difficult for him to handle such memories. So after studying the memories of the origin period for a while, he directly sealed those memories and didn't want to touch them again.

However, everything he saw now made him recall that memory again.

Among those unbearable memories, some memory fragments were very clear, such as the fragments of him getting along with the mother ape when he was still an ape, the fragments of his offspring being born, the fragments of his offspring growing up, and the fragments of those close companions and relatives dying in front of him, etc. In addition, there are some memory fragments that are also very clear, and the scene he sees now is completely consistent with a clear fragment in his memory.

The reason why this memory of the scenery in front of him is so clear is firstly because this is the place where he buried his first offspring.

His first offspring was bitten to death by a saber-toothed tiger before he grew up. At that time, he was angry and killed the saber-toothed tiger, and he had two ideas that had never been seen in the ape community at that time, one was burial, and the other was sacrifice.

In his memory, he buried his first dead offspring at the edge of a small forest in the distance, and then tore off the saber-toothed tiger's head with his teeth and arms, and placed it in front of the grave of his first offspring, offering sacrifice to the unknown that had never existed in his consciousness and had no concept at all.

Secondly, the reason why Leo could remember this scenery was that he also became an immortal at this time, but there was no detailed process of how to become an immortal in his memory fragments. He only knew that from then on, he became different, but he couldn't figure out what was different. At least at that time, his ape brain couldn't figure out these things. Also, even if he died from then on, he would live in another place and with another human life. In this process, sometimes he would lose his memory, and sometimes he would save or restore his previous memory, which felt similar to the problem he was facing now.

"Is this an illusion created by the Supreme Court?" After Leo figured out where he was, he couldn't help but guess that all this might be the evil taste of a giant in the Supreme Court, that is, the illusion of the old earth period created through the fragments of his memory.

While doubting in his heart, Leo also opened his psychic vision, and in order to enhance the strength of his psychic power, he also injected the power of the stone throne, trying to see through the illusion in front of him through the ability of the true eye.

However, after the spiritual vision was activated, the scene in front of him did change, but it was not as virtual and transparent as the illusion that was seen through, but it was still presented in front of him in a physical state, but there were more things than before. These things were the world laws that spread throughout the earth. The number of these world laws was almost endless, intertwined and merged with each other, forming a giant law network that was more complex than the laws he had seen in any world of the world tree, covering the entire earth, and at the same time connecting with the law network of the galaxy, the star region, and the universe in the outside space.

It is not particularly difficult to create an illusion or field that is close to reality, but to create a perfect world or even the laws of the universe, even the giants of the Supreme Council of the Universe cannot do it, and the law that Leo saw in front of him is such a perfect sequence of laws.

"Is this really the earth of the past?" Leo couldn't help but have a doubt in his heart, and at the same time he boldly guessed whether he had traveled through time and returned to the past universe.

Although this conjecture is a bit too bold, it is not a completely unrealizable delusion. In fact, it is not uncommon for people to be imaged by some mysterious power in the subspace, travel through time, and return to the past. Even the Earth Federation has recorded more than a dozen similar incidents.

For example, there was a subspace spaceship that broke away from the subspace rift and entered the normal space, and docked in the dock of the space station. When the dock staff checked the spaceship, they found that there was no creature on the spaceship. The flight and docking of the spaceship were all executed by the control system of the spaceship main brain, and they also found that the number of this spaceship was an empty number.

Afterwards, they retrieved the flight records and internal monitoring of the spaceship and found that this spaceship was actually a concept spaceship that was still in the laboratory design stage and had not been manufactured. Moreover, judging from the time displayed on the recorder, this spaceship was manufactured and put into use decades later. As for the internal monitoring of the spaceship, they also saw some spaceship staff. After comparison, they found that most of these staff members were not recorded in the population data, and those who had identity data were all elderly people, who were still children now.

After the official relevant departments conducted research, they concluded that when the spaceship was sailing in the subspace, it was dragged into the time turbulence by the mysterious power of the subspace and returned to the previous time. However, the people on the ship had no ability to resist the power formed by the time reversal, and were completely worn out by time, leaving only the spaceship.

Although this explanation sounds reasonable, it is only recognized by ordinary people. For most scientists, this explanation is full of loopholes and cannot explain this phenomenon, but they all agree that the spaceship came from a certain period in the future.

There are many similar things about future objects appearing in the Earth Federation through the subspace. The Earth Federation even set up a special department to study this phenomenon and even tried to master the mysterious power of the subspace, which is obscure in time. However, until he reached the end of his memory in the normal universe, the exclusive department of the Earth Federation did not produce any results.

It is precisely because of so many precedents that Leo now speculates that he may have traveled through time, even if the time span is a bit longer.

In order to confirm his guess, Leo spread his psychic wings and flew towards the grave of the first descendant in his memory.

Soon he flew outside the grove and easily found the location of the first descendant's grave. The location was very eye-catching outside the not-so-large grove. It was a small hill with a ginkgo tree growing on it. This feature was also unique.

However, although he found the hill and ginkgo tree where the grave was, he did not see the grave he had dug for his first descendant.

Just as Leo was floating in the air thinking about the problem, a noise suddenly came from the forest not far away. Some birds were startled by the noise and flew out of the woods. Then he saw an ape holding a bloody ape corpse with one arm and carrying a huge saber-toothed tiger head on his shoulder. He then stopped outside the forest, stood up high, looked around, saw the hill and ginkgo tree not far away, and walked quickly towards that side.

The ape did not look up, and naturally did not see Leo floating in the air. After seeing the ape, Leo immediately understood that it was his past self.

Although he knew that the ape man below was himself, Leo had no intention of falling down to contact him. He just floated in the air and watched quietly, waiting for the mysterious existence that gave him the talent of immortality to appear.

The ape man came to the ginkgo tree, put the body and head in his hand aside, and then dug a pit on the ground with his bare hands.

The weather around was very cold and the land was very hard. It was difficult for ordinary people to dig out the frozen soil with tools, but the ape man dug it with his hands. Even if his fingers were broken and bleeding, it did not hinder his movements. Soon a deep pit that could accommodate the little ape man was dug out.

After that, the ape man put the body into the deep pit and buried the soil in the pit. This scene also evoked the relevant memories in Leo's heart, making him feel a strong sadness that he had never felt before.

After burying the body of the little ape man, the ape man put the head of the saber-toothed tiger on the top of the grave, and then sat next to the grave until the sky was completely dark, then he slowly got up, returned to the forest, and climbed up the tree.

Seeing this scene, Leo was stunned, because he had been waiting for the mysterious power that inspired his immortal talent to appear, but until the ape man returned to the forest, no extraordinary power appeared around, let alone transforming the ape man.

"Could it be that the power has already appeared, but I didn't notice it?" A thought suddenly emerged in Leo's mind, but he quickly denied it, because he not only used his psychic ability to monitor all the extraordinary powers around him, including various laws, but also used the mental network to completely surround the surroundings. Any disturbance could not escape his perception. More importantly, his mental network also wrapped the ape man in it to monitor the changes in his body, and until the ape man entered the forest, the ape man's body did not change at all.

"Has it been transformed before?" Another guess emerged in Leo's mind, but it was also denied, because in his memory, he clearly remembered that his origin was after burying his first offspring and placing the saber-toothed tiger head on the top of the grave for sacrifice, he felt that his body had changed and became different from before.

After denying various speculations one after another, Leo suddenly had a bold idea and said, "Could it be that I am the mysterious force that caused the origin to change? But if so, then I didn't do anything just now, which means that my origin is still an ordinary ape-man, and I will not appear at all?"

Thinking of this, Leo found himself trapped in a logical paradox. According to his experience, as long as this kind of causal paradox at the time level appears, it means that this paradox does not exist, and it also means that the idea that caused this paradox is wrong.

Just when Leo was lost in thought, the scene in front of him suddenly changed again, but this time the change was no longer the grassland, forest and snow-capped mountains, but a swamp.

With almost no analysis, Leo could be sure that this swamp was on the earth, and the information related to this swamp was awakened in his mind.

In his memory, this swamp was where he was after his first reincarnation. The ape-man who was the origin was bitten to death in an attack by a wild beast. At the moment of death, he was reborn in a southern swamp far away from the place of death. His reborn body was no longer an ape-man, but a primitive man with a certain wisdom. Obviously, his rebirth not only spanned space, but also spanned time. This is the same as his death in the normal universe, but his rebirth in the Viren world of the world tree.

In Leo's memory, this rebirth was very strange. Leo even studied this memory for a period of time in the library of the tower, but there was no result.

The reason why Leo felt strange was that in his memory, he did not feel any discomfort in his first rebirth. You must know that before his rebirth, he was still an ape-man without much wisdom and instinct prevailed. After his rebirth, he has become a primitive man who will appear tens or even millions of years later.

In his memory, he quickly accepted his identity and memory after rebirth, without any discomfort, and even changed all the habits left by the ape life at the origin. Without any trace of ape, anyone would regard them as different individuals and would not think that they had any connection.

Leo thought while flying towards the place where the primitive tribe was in his memory.

The primitive tribe that was reborn for the first time in his memory was originally a tribe in the north, but because of climate reasons, it began to migrate south and finally chose to settle down on the edge of this swamp.

The reason why he chose to settle in the swamp, a barren place that seemed to have no resources and not enough prey, was entirely because his identity after rebirth was the chief of this tribe, and he thought that the swamp was a suitable place to settle.

As for the reason why he had this completely different idea from other people in the primitive tribe at that time, it was because he knew that there was a lot of carbon mud in the swamp that could be burned for heating, and the black mud in the swamp was also very fertile, and various crops could be easily grown. The moss in the swamp was also a very good material for building tents, and the animals living in the swamp were no less than other places. As long as a little trap was set, enough prey could be caught.

But this is also the strangest thing for Leo, because neither the previous ape-men nor the primitive men after them possessed this survival knowledge. It was as if a large amount of advanced knowledge was stuffed into his brain at the moment of rebirth, which made him wonder whether there was some mysterious power involved.
