Chapter 345: The Remains of the Firechasers
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The history of the ‘Firechasers’ had come to an end, but the history of the ‘Lightchasers’ had just begun.
As the ‘end’ of that cosmic battle royale, the death of the ‘Firechasers’ completely stopped the ‘Cradle’ galaxy from shrinking.
When the Homeship, ‘Dawn Star,’ turned into a dazzling light, the darkness threatening the entire ‘Cradle’ stopped shrinking.
Perhaps because the contraction was mainly aimed at the ‘Firechasers,’ even after the last batch of ‘Lightchasers’ completed their ‘cocooning,’ the ‘Shrinking Universe Observation Ships’ at the border did not detect any signs of darkness approaching.
They didn’t know if it was because their equipment wasn’t sensitive enough to detect the tiny traces of ‘shrinking.’
In short, even after everyone was reborn, the ‘Shrinking Universe Observation Ships’ at the border were not recalled.
They might become monuments to the sad history of the galaxy, standing at the galaxy’s edge like an eternal torch, reminding future generations of the suffering they had experienced.
A few weeks later, the ‘Lightchaser’ civilization finally recovered from the ‘Crisis Termination.’
The beast that chased them all the time had disappeared, and they no longer had to live under heavy pressure like before.
However, those who were used to that kind of life were still slightly confused until the government introduced the ‘Planet Recovery Plan.’
To prevent the darkness from approaching, all the stars in the ‘Cradle’ galaxy were transformed into Black Holes, which caused the entire galaxy to become a non-luminous celestial body.
Without the light and heat of the star, the first to suffer was Planet Gaia.
Although Planet Gaia had a strong ability to adapt to the environment, it could not withstand the low temperature of minus two hundred degrees.
Even if Planet Gaia used the greenhouse effect to keep warm, it would not have been able to resist the natural forces of the universe. It might have been possible for a short period, but what if it lasted for thousands of years?
To make it possible to sustain life before complete ‘heat death,’ probably only a truly ‘living’ Planet Gaia could make it work.
Of course, the current situation arose because Planet Gaia’s ability to adjust could no longer keep up with the changes in the universe’s environment.
As long as external forces intervened, artificially providing energy for Planet Gaia and designing an ecosystem, Planet Gaia could maintain normal operations even without a star.
In the past, due to the influence of the ‘shrinking universe,’ very few civilizations would spend much effort colonizing completely frozen planets. That was because planets would ultimately be abandoned, and it was difficult to develop in a permanently frozen environment.
Over time, almost all civilizations simply used things like ‘Homeships,’ and planets became places to collect resources.
But now, after the crisis of the ‘shrinking world’ was completely resolved, a settlement that was in good condition was still much better than a Homeship. Whether it was the population carrying capacity or the industrial processing environment, it would be much better than a moving spaceship.
Therefore, the ‘Lightchaser’ civilization began a massive ‘Planet Recovery Plan’ in the name of ‘recovering their home,’ vowing to turn those frozen planets into their home again.
And that plan began with the frozen planet in the ‘Embers’ galaxy.
The heat from the Black Hole’s accretion disk melted some of the glaciers, and some of the higher altitude areas were exposed. They were natural landing points.
On that day, the leader of the ‘Lightchaser’ civilization was the first to set foot on the unfrozen land.
He was one of the middle batch in the ‘cocooning’ plan. The decades of waiting did not make him old. Instead, he had become much younger because of his new life. He even felt he could be a leader for another few hundred years.
Being healthy and as the leader of a civilization, he decided to participate in the ‘Planet Recovery Plan’ personally to inspire people.
It had been long since he stepped on a planet’s soil. As far as the eye could see, it was mostly dark brown soil and a small amount of unmelted ice and snow. Although it was dead silent, the leader knew that that place would become the starting point of new life in the future.
His assistant followed him with a document from the parliament in his hand. After rushing to the leader’s side, the assistant said in a low voice, “…The parliament feels that after the crisis was resolved, they can change the name of the civilization for good luck.”
“Look, these are the names they mentioned…”
The leader took the document and looked at it, and his expression quickly changed.
“What kind of names are these? What is the ‘Lightchaser Science Society’? ‘Lightchaser Universe Revival Agency’?”
He threw the document back to his assistant, but he already had an idea in mind.
“We are the last survivors here. Not only do we have to shoulder ourselves, but we also have to shoulder the four hundred civilizations that have passed away, including the ‘Firechasers’ who brought everything here.”
“The name ‘Lightchaser’ is quite good, but we can indeed make a small amendment. We don’t have to change it too much. Let’s call ourselves ‘Light Pursuers.'”
“We will always pursue the light until the end of our lives.”
The ‘Firechasers’ and the ‘Light Pursuers.’ Those two civilizations with similar names seemed to have passed and taken over the torch of their civilizations and continued to advance in that ‘cosmic race.’
Although the ‘Firechasers’ had perished, their history would be preserved by the ‘Light Pursuers,’ and they would advance with that reborn civilization until death.
The story of the ‘Cradle’ was over, but the story of the universe continued.
A spaceship carrying the primitive genes stripped from the ‘Light Pursuers’ bodies approached the ‘Embers Black Hole.’ As the accretion disk that was still emitting energy was too dangerous, the spaceship should throw the primitive genes into the Black Hole to be destroyed after approaching a certain distance. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝓸𝒎
However, when the box containing the secret item that safe kept the primitive genes flew towards the Black Hole and was completely torn apart by the Black Hole’s gravity under surveillance, the spaceship still showed no signs of leaving, as if it was controlled by something.
Needless to say, that was definitely Li Wenyuan’s doing.
Originally, after dealing with the pending matter, the ‘shrinking world,’ he should have shifted his attention and stopped focusing on the distant ‘Cradle’ galaxy.
However, after the ‘Firechasers’ voluntarily threw themselves into the Black Hole and were torn apart by gravity, he detected a very special signal through the ‘Surveillance Terminal,’ which was constantly emitted from the accretion disk.
There was a lot of noise in the universe, not to mention that it was five million lightyears away. If he hadn’t locked onto the entire ‘Cradle’ galaxy, he wouldn’t have noticed the string of signals at all.
That string of signals was special because he found that the signal contained some kind of strange pattern as if it was hiding some information.
After carefully matching and attempting to decipher it, he realized if he used the encryption method for ‘Firechasers,’ he could decipher the information!
At that moment, Li Wenyuan subconsciously wondered if that was the ‘last song’ tailored for the ‘Firechasers’ by themselves.
However, after gradually deciphering the information, Li Wenyuan locked his gaze on the Black Hole, the seemingly inconspicuous celestial body penetrated the entire universe..
