Chapter 1196 Eternal Longing
Remember [new] in one second! Peaceful, slow, and straightforward, Xinghuan’s voice seems to have no emotional ups and downs.
But listening to his words, listening to the nebulae, spiral arms, hundreds of billions of stars, black holes with diameters of hundreds of thousands of light years and millions of times the mass of the sun,
Referring to the shocking experience of seeing the size of the Earth and Jupiter with my own eyes, I imagined such grandeur and looked at the photos in front of me.
Fangran only had one thought similar to the one before.
This is like a small ball of light in the mold lake map,
Is there really a galaxy larger than the ones just mentioned, with more than 400 billion stars?
"It is the largest galaxy within 10 million light-years, together with more than 50 galaxies including the Milky Way and the Triangulum Galaxy,"
"Constitutes the 'Local Group of Galaxies'."
It seems that direct and real observation can only stop here. Looking at the pictures outside that are the same as the Andromeda Galaxy,
Sagittarius, Sculptor, the Large and Small Magellanic...the galaxies are the size of light spots and are extremely sparsely arranged into a virtual space group model.
Only then did Fangran truly understand what the name Kerim had said that night at midnight.
Even facing such a scene, Xinghuan still raised his hand with a hollow voice and continued to zoom out.
"But galaxy groups are just the smallest collection of galaxies. The Virgo Cluster has more than 2,000 galaxies."
"With it as the center, there are hundreds of galaxy groups and clusters around it..."
Watching the huge group of local galaxies shrink into scattered light points in the last second, and a large particle light cluster dozens of times larger appeared several times away,
Then hundreds of particles of light points and light clusters appeared everywhere with names and pictures.
Fangran subconsciously said the name he had heard in his memory.
"The Virgo Supercluster...."
Turning his eyes, Xinghuan added in a calm voice:
"But compared with similar superclusters, it is just a representative example of a lack of high-density cores and poor galaxies."
poor....
The understanding of the distance at this level has begun to fade. Fang Ran described it silently, and then watched the star ring shrink it again,
"It and the Hydra-Centaurus Supercluster and the Peacock-Indus Supercluster,
As well as hundreds of ordinary clusters and groups of galaxies,"
"They are all just part of the Laniakea Supercluster that spans 500 million light-years."
Five hundred million light years...
Listening to this scale and seeing the planet extend from just now, Fangran found that he had completely lost the concept, but it seemed like there was no end.
The next second he heard the sound of the star ring,
"And on top of that."
At this moment, he looked at the star-shaped figure by the window with his eyes wide open. Fangran was amazed at the name he had heard that night, and at such grandeur.
It’s not even the most powerful existence?
"The mass of the Pisces-Cetus supercluster complex is ten times that of it. Among the superior galactic Great Walls, the Hercules-Corona Borealis Great Wall has a diameter of 10 billion light years,"
"It is the largest structure in the observable universe."
Looking past Laniakea in front of us, past the supercluster complex composed of the Perseus-Pegasus chain, the Pegasus-Pisces chain, the Pisces-Cetus supercluster and the Great Wall of Sculptor,
Crossing the Great Wall of galaxies tens of billions of light-years away who knows how far away,
When these words fell, it was as if the journey of light had finally reached its end.
A magnificent picture that is so huge that it can only be expressed in a very virtual way appears in front of you!
-Observable Universe-
And then the next second, it all disappears,
The extremely real blue planet was restored outside the wall window.
Xinghuan's words were not outstanding, and could even be said to be pale. What he said was only the most basic common sense.
But this is the universe,
Just describing the scale can make you feel great.
After witnessing such greatness, I returned to the starting point and looked up at the planet in front of me again.
Still shocked,
Only this time, looking up at it like a cradle in the vast universe, looking at the golden spots on its surface,
Regardless of race or belief, regardless of power or country, in the endless and vast light-year universe,
For the first time, I looked at everything in front of me as a 'planetary civilization'...
For the first time, Fangran felt something he couldn't explain.
At this moment, it was like time repeating itself. Xinghuan stood in front of the window and turned her head to look at his inquiry.
His eyes were calm and his voice remained emotionless.
"Do you think this is shocking?"
The same question, but this time he didn’t give the same answer, as if he was trying to drag his thoughts from a far away place back to the present of the black market, Troy, and the financial field.
Fangran's eyes were as wary as he should be for an unfamiliar A-level leader:
"Why are you telling me this?"
The lord of the black market, the fourth in Wanderer's Song, and one of the manipulators of the ultimate power. He didn't understand why such a person would say this to him when they met.
As for his vigilance, he didn't pay attention to it and didn't change it.
Xinghuan just told the whole story frankly:
"A long time ago, You Ye agreed to trade data soul-related technologies with me so that I could gaze at the stars longer. Out of gratitude, I will help people related to her,"
He looked at the young man in front of him and truthfully told the answer he just saw.
"I can see how confused you are, but I don't know how to teach others. I can only show you my wish."
"I hope you can figure it out for yourself."
Straightforward to the extreme, so straightforward that you won’t even suspect that his answer is lying.
The moment she heard him say this, her eyes widened slightly in confusion.
Recalling last night, recalling the end of the energy field, recalling the answer to the question about ‘Helen’, ‘George’ and the immortals,
Fangran didn't expect that he would see through her thoughts right away.
I didn't expect him to do so for such a straightforward reason.
It was not until this moment that Fang Ran discovered that the Xinghuan figure standing in front of the window had a faint glimmer that was not a real body like the image just now...
And it's like sighing, like narrating, and like talking to oneself calmly,
At this moment, Xinghuan looked out the window at the blue planet intertwined with golden light spots, looking at maybe the mountains, the ocean, or somewhere in his hometown.
"The history of mankind is full of wars, divisions, endless internal strife,"
"Only when you look up at the same starry sky, will you have the same longing that has existed forever."
"Longing for the stars, wanting to explore the stars."
Leaving the surface and piloting the ultimate power alone into space decades ago in the last century,
I don’t know what I’ve experienced, I don’t know how far I’m looking, and I don’t know what I’m thinking about.
He lowered his eyes and spoke calmly, as if talking in his sleep.
"But everything we are proud of, the joys and sorrows of all of us, the birth and death of all living things over billions of years, are all only on such a small planet,"
"Too small to be counted."
"But even so,"
Then when he said this, he turned his head to look at Fangran, and for the first time there was some color in his eyes and voice.
"I want to go too...."
...
...
New York Black Market, Black Market Auction House.
Opening my eyes, my consciousness returned to the surface from the 24,000-kilometer orbit. I returned to the box and looked at everything in front of me. It felt like I had just had a dream.
"Why does it look like it's been a long journey?"
After hearing the keen smile of the Queen drinking tea leisurely, I came back to my senses. I didn't say anything more, just took a deep breath,
Fangran put down the mysterious object and stood up and looked outside:
"Let's go, it's time to complete our purpose tonight."
New York black market, periphery.
From the auction house on the third floor of the black market, we arrived at the area outside this sci-fi urban area.
This is the edge area of scene fragments that have not yet been developed and utilized. A large number of unmanned buildings and streets are shrouded in the darkness of the scene without lighting.
The source of that 'beacon' is in this area.
"Have you negotiated with the consignor of that lot?"
Veronica chuckled and looked at the young man who brought her here. When she heard her question, she remembered the answer of the star ring that happened in space not long ago,
Fangran looked ahead at the ceremony hall behind the dark square and answered:
"He has promised that all black market participants tonight will not interfere."
In the top black market auction, the price of buying the last item was exchanged for Star Ring's observation of the association's incident tonight.
At this moment, I was slightly lost in thought about the last conversation I had with Xinghuan.
‘Is this thing important to you? ’
'This is probably...the last bit of nostalgia I have for the earth. ’
Thinking about the last words spoken by his shimmering figure holding the rust cylinder.
'Thank you, Fangran...'
Leaving your homeland, leaving your friends and loved ones, even if you abandon everything in human society on the surface, you still have to take a half-step into space alone.
Witnessing Xinghuan's determination to wish for something, it triggered something deep in my heart.
But put all these aside temporarily and focus on the present moment.
"Then are we going to sneak in secretly now?"
Listening to Veronica's chuckle question, Fangran softly denied,
"No,"
Not a C-level elite, not a B-level ace, no need for any roundabout ways, tonight, in this incident in the financial field,
Now he is an A-level leader!
Looking at the ceremony hall in front, looking at the place behind which I don’t know, where countless conspiracies and plans are flowing and intertwined tonight,
No matter what is waiting ahead, at this moment Fangran just raised the boiling darkness in his eyes,
"We don't need such a gentle approach."
Then, when the silver dragon teeth swept across, they disappeared and disappeared, and the 'infinity' accompanied the moment of liberation with black eyes,
The aura of an A-level superior appeared in the New York black market unchained!
[Shadow Card] When the brilliance lights up,
The dark tsunami-like shadow of magic energy surged up and flooded the entire ceremony hall!
