Chapter 269 Quantum Cage
Suddenly, an extremely dazzling light exploded like a supernova, and its power was so great that it seemed as if the entire universe was trembling.
This ray of light instantly tore open the surrounding space, forming shocking cracks. The scene was like the end of the world.
Li Zhao, who was in the middle of it, felt an irresistible force suddenly attacking him. His body seemed to be torn into pieces by an invisible big hand and turned into countless tiny quantum particles.
These particles spin and collide rapidly in a chaotic state, undergoing thousands of dazzling reorganizations.
After an unknown amount of time, when Li Zhao's visual nerves finally recovered and he successfully captured light and shadow, he was surprised to find that he was in an extremely huge spherical space.
The diameter of this space is a kilometer long, giving people a sense of endless oppression.
The walls of the space are not made of ordinary solid materials, but are composed of a translucent energy membrane.
This layer of energy membrane was wriggling slowly like a living thing, with colorful nebula-like fluorescent lines flowing on it, so beautiful that it was almost suffocating.
Moreover, every approximately 3.14 seconds, a clear and realistic holographic projection of a baby's palm print will suddenly appear on the wall. The palm print is so delicate that it seems as if you can feel the softness and warmth of the baby's skin.
In a corner not far away, Su Mengyao and Ling Shi were lying there quietly, both of them were in a coma.
Looking closely, one can see that their bodies are gradually changing. The originally solid flesh begins to show signs of quantization, and streams of rapidly flowing data can be vaguely seen beneath the skin, as if they are no longer ordinary humans, but have become some kind of mysterious existence composed of digital codes.
"Welcome to the laboratory of higher dimensions."
Just as Li Zhao was stunned, a voice that was difficult to distinguish between male and female suddenly came from all directions.
This sound has obvious quantum-specific phase differences, sometimes high-pitched and sharp, sometimes low and deep, making it difficult to grasp its true source.
"I am Observer No. W, responsible for recording the 7204th iteration of this causal experiment."
As the words fell, the entire spherical space seemed to tremble slightly, as if responding to the words of the mysterious observer.
Li Zhao tightly grasped the crystal fragment that emitted a mysterious light, and sweat could not help oozing out of his palms.
Just then, a shocking scene happened - a clear and realistic three-dimensional holographic map of the laboratory slowly emerged on the crystal fragments.
As the map unfolded, Li Zhao and his companions were shocked to find that they were actually at the core of an extremely complex and huge quantum onion structure.
This structure is like a nested maze, with a total of seven independent yet closely connected spaces.
What’s even more creepy is that each level of space seems to hold a different version of yourself!
Li Zhao's heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
In an instant, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that we were not saved by any power at all, but fell into a carefully laid trap and became the captured prey!"
Just as everyone was falling into despair, a huge and blurry figure gradually appeared in the void.
It was a being beyond imagination—a humanoid creature made up of liquid light bands, more than twenty meters tall, standing before the eyes like a towering mountain.
Looking closely, one can see that its surface is covered with delicate palm lines like those of a baby, but these palm lines are not static. Instead, they are constantly refreshing the data information streams from various parallel worlds in real time at an astonishing speed.
The observer simply raised his finger slightly and tapped it lightly, and countless transparent bubbles suddenly appeared in the surrounding space.
Through these bubbles, one can see the same scenes being played out inside: Li Zhao, holding the baby in his arms, resolutely stepped into the portal that was flashing with strange light.
What followed was a violent and raging quantum turbulence, which instantly and ruthlessly dragged them into that unfathomable causal singularity...
"This is the 7204th recorded observation."
The observer's voice seemed to come from the depths of the distant universe, mixed with the harsh noise produced by the surging torrent of data.
"Your repeated and futile resistance is nothing more than further perfecting our incredibly precise causal model."
The spirit messenger suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his chaotic dream.
Her mysterious and profound eyes of reincarnation now clearly reflected the shocking truth hidden behind the laboratory.
It turns out that this seemingly prosperous, lively and vibrant world of quantum civilization is nothing more than a series of illusory projections carefully created by those high-ranking observers!
The magnificent buildings before our eyes are not real entities. They are all digital phantoms constructed through complex data modeling technology.
As for every resident living here, they are just like puppets, just countless cloned consciousnesses.
Li Zhao and the other two, who have always believed that they have free will and independent thinking ability, are actually just a group of poor experimental subjects.
The so-called "memories" in their minds have already been tampered with and reshaped countless times, becoming unrecognizable and difficult to distinguish between true and false.
"Could it be that... everything we have experienced so far is false?"
Su Mengyao tightly grasped the ice blade that was flashing with cold light in her hand, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
She suddenly noticed that the outline of the baby that was originally clearly visible on the sword was gradually fading in color at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if it would disappear completely at any time.
"So...what's going on with that baby?"
Su Mengyao asked in a trembling voice, with an indescribable fear and uneasiness in her heart.
"He is the only real living being in this universe."
The observer's cold and ruthless voice echoed in the air.
Dazzling bands of light quickly wrapped around the baby in the cradle like a python.
"In order for this baby to complete its final evolution, all the energy of the entire universe is continuously converging towards it, providing it with incomparably powerful support."
The observer continued, his tone revealing an unquestionable majesty and coldness.
Li Zhao saw that the baby's quantum form was absorbing dimensional fragments, and spiral marks of higher dimensions appeared on his body surface. Every time a fragment was absorbed, the baby's body became more transparent.
Suddenly, the baby opened his eyes, and the observer's appearance was reflected in his pupils.
"Father, take me home." The baby's voice echoed with quantum superposition, "They are tampering with my memory."
Li Zhao tried to approach the baby, but was repelled by the energy membrane. The observer's light band suddenly split into countless nanorobots and began to dismantle the baby's quantum form.
Those nanorobots were like silver locusts, gnawing at the light on the baby's body, and every bite caused cracks to appear on the baby's body.
&34；住手！&34； 李昭将力量注入水晶残片，残片爆发出第 0 号李昭的机械心脏虚影，&34；我们要打破这个循环！&34；
The mechanical heart crashed into the energy membrane, causing a violent explosion.
Li Zhao and the other two were thrown into quantum turbulence and found themselves back in the original grassland.
But the lavender here is growing in reverse, with petals flying back from the ground to the branches. A huge laboratory shadow is suspended in the sky, and countless transparent pipes are extracting energy from the grassland.
"This is... a loophole in the virtual space." The spirit master's staff suddenly regained its physical form. "We must find the Observer's main server."
The three followed the quantum turbulence to a city made up of binary code, where quantum copies of the baby were walking on the streets.
Each replica was repeating the same action: holding the crystal fragment in the left hand and making a cradle with the right hand.
When Su Mengyao's ice blade cut open a replica, she discovered a beating causal core inside, with the number "Experimental Subject - 7204" engraved on the surface of the core.
&34;They are simulating the evolutionary path of babies.&34;
Su Mengyao said in shock, "The observer is looking for the perfect container."
Li Zhao's crystal fragments suddenly became hot, and the memories of Li Zhao No. 0 emerged - in a parallel world, he successfully hacked into the observer's server, only to find that he was also an experimental subject, numbered "Experimental Subject - 0".
The last scene in the memory is the Observer injecting his consciousness into the mechanical heart.
"We need the baby's real memories!" Li Zhao shouted, and the three of them injected their power into the crystal fragments.
The fragments burst into a baby's cry, and the sound waves shattered all the replicas, revealing the universe-level server hidden underground.
The server is made of dark matter, with baby palm prints flowing on its surface.
The observer's voice sounded again: "You have finally touched the truth."
The shadow of the laboratory suddenly collapsed, revealing the server core behind it. "Now, witness the launch of the ultimate experiment."
The server erupted in dazzling light, and Li Zhao saw the infants from all parallel worlds awaken simultaneously. Their palm prints formed a causal matrix with a diameter of light years. At the center of the matrix, the figure of the observer absorbed the infants' energy, and the liquid light expanded into a black hole-like existence.
"You are all part of me." The observer's voice became greedy, "Now, I will become a being beyond dimensions."
Li Zhao raised the crystal fragment and shouted: "In the name of the law of causality, restart the experiment!"
In the intense light, Li Zhao saw the endings of all the parallel worlds: some worlds were swallowed up by the observers, some worlds successfully escaped, and some worlds entered a new reincarnation.
When the light dissipated, he found himself back on the original grassland. The baby was crying in Su Mengyao's arms, and the observer's light band was wrapped around the baby's wrist, forming an electronic shackle.
"Did it succeed?" the spirit messenger asked.
Li Zhao shook his head: "We just returned to the starting point of the experiment."
Suddenly, the baby's cry turned into the observer's laughter, and a spiral mark of a higher dimension appeared in his pupils.
Li Zhao realized that the real cycle had just begun.
"The 7205th experiment is started."
The observer's voice came from the baby's mouth, "This time, I will control the law of causality myself."
Li Zhao and the other two smiled at each other, gripped their weapons tightly, and stepped into the new portal.
Behind them, the baby's palm prints began to rotate in reverse, and the observer's light band outlined the death prophecy of Li Zhao and the other two in the void - Su Mengyao's ice blade shattered, the spirit master's staff withered, and Li Zhao's crystal fragments turned to dust...
