Chapter 346: The Organic Encyclopedia

The remains of the ‘Firechasers’ were torn apart by the Black Hole’s gravity. Then they rubbed against each other at high speeds in the accretion disk, releasing a large amount of energy.

That was a common phenomenon in the universe. Not only the Black Hole but even some massive celestial bodies could form similar accretion disks.

Most of the energy released by the Black Hole’s accretion disk was in the form of X-rays. Because that was too common and the area around the accretion disk was extremely dangerous, very few people would focus on a normal ‘Black Hole Devour.’

But this time, the ‘Black Hole Devour’ phenomenon was not normal.

In addition to the X-rays, Li Wenyuan also detected a low-energy ray burst along with the X-ray burst through the transport spaceship. Although it was basically covered by the X-ray burst, it was still possible to discover the uniqueness of that ray under conscious detection.

The most obvious was it didn’t simply shoot out with energy. Instead, when it encountered certain molecules, it would trigger a weak electrical signal.

It was only at that distance that Li Wenyuan could accurately detect the signal with the help of the spaceship he controlled and his ‘Surveillance Terminal.’

After more than five years of continuous testing, he finally ‘heard’ the complete string of signals.

During that process, the ‘Light Pursuers’ thought their spaceship carrying the primitive genes had crashed while approaching the Black Hole. However, since it was an unmanned spaceship and had fulfilled its main purpose, which was to destroy the primitive genes, they ignored the spaceship.

That gave Li Wenyuan enough time to examine it. He was not sure at first, but after examination and a period of signal deciphering and reassembly, he confirmed that it was an extremely large string of ‘data.’

[The Past Era Organic Encyclopedia]

[Introduction: The ‘Firechaser’ itself is a huge gene bank. A conservative estimate of the number of genes it carries from different lifeforms is at least two trillion. Most are lifeforms from the previous era, but there are also a few creatures from the current era.]

[Although the ‘Firechasers’ believed that it was a set of data that brought destruction and decided to bring it to their grave along with their disappearance, these data were, in fact, no longer recognized as ‘foreign objects’ by the universe after the Black Hole’s ‘purification.’ With the support of this set of data, we can now theoretically resurrect any lifeforms from the previous era and let them reappear in this universe.]

[But that’s all there is to it. What is resurrected is life, not ‘civilization.’ In terms of practical use, it may just be that the genetic characteristics of some lifeforms are more special and can be used as a reference for genetic evolution.]

Yes, the signal that Li Wenyuan had been monitoring for more than five years was actually the genetic data of more than two trillion different lifeforms in the body of the ‘Firechasers.’

Although they had already perished, under the effect of the Black Hole’s gravity, all the information stored in their genes was revealed and collected by Li Wenyuan.

No matter how one looked at it, it was impossible for that situation to be formed ‘naturally.’ If the Black Hole had such an ability, then the civilizations in that universe would have long regarded the Black Hole as a ‘versatile interpreter.’

Almost instantly, Li Wenyuan began to think about the cause of that phenomenon and soon realized the greatest possibility.

And that was the greatest nature of the ‘Firechasers.’ They were a civilization of the previous era and not the ‘present.’

The reason why they would suffer from ‘dimensional erosion’ and be locked onto by the universe to be eliminated by ‘shrinking’ was because they were not a civilization from there.

They chose to throw everything into the Black Hole to destroy themselves completely, but the information they stored was disintegrated by the Black Hole and transformed into the content of that universe.

“…In other words, things from the previous era could be transformed by the Black Hole into things that could be recognized by the current universe?”

As Li Wenyuan thought about it, the Black Hole seemed to have some connection with the special situation of the ‘Cradle’ galaxy.

According to the ‘Light Pursuers,’ the galaxy was shrinking at a rather fast speed, and it was only because they had blown the star into a Black Hole that the speed was slowed down.

Not only that, but the Black Hole had even managed to unravel the secrets of the ‘Firechasers.’ No matter which one it was, it was something Li Wenyuan had never considered.

However, he still lacked enough experimental data to support the idea of a Black Hole’s ‘decoding function.’ After all, he did not have anything from the previous era that he could squander.

Through countless observation equipment, his gaze focused on the ‘Greenhouse Dragon Nest’ galaxy where the Ether Dragon was located.

The Ether Dragon, which was wearing a giant bow-shaped ‘Dimensional Adaptor’ on her head, was still lying on her ‘egg’ that was also wearing a Dimensional Adaptor. As if sensing Li Wenyuan’s gaze, she raised her huge head and looked around for a while, even wagging her tail.

Li Wenyuan also shifted his gaze at that moment. Of course, he couldn’t throw the Ether Dragon into the Black Hole just to test if the Black Hole could ‘transform’ her into an existence that could be recognized by that universe, regardless of her life and death.

“But her scales may be used for experiment…Also, the only things I have that are related to the ‘previous era’ are the Ether Dragon and the ‘Archive’ building, right?”

There was no way he would throw the ‘Archive’ building into the Black Hole. He had yet to finish analyzing those buildings that were suspected to have been left behind by the civilization of the previous era. No one knew if they would become useless ‘disposable items’ after being thrown into the Black Hole. If that were the case, it would be a bit of a loss.

Moreover, from the situation of the ‘Firechasers,’ deciphering the information emitted by the Black Hole required a corresponding method. It wasn’t something that could be easily deciphered.

At the very least, Li Wenyuan would not throw the ‘Archive’ into the Black Hole unless he had no other choice. However, he could give the Ether Dragon’s scales a try. The Ether Dragon had many of those.

“Also, why does a ‘Firechaser’ carry so many species’ genes? Was it to rebuild the original civilization after the end of the era? What kind of Universe Noah’s Ark is this…”

The ‘Past Era Organic Encyclopedia’ that was analyzed through the ‘Firechasers’ reminded Li Wenyuan. From the information he knew about the ‘Firechasers,’ that civilization seemed to have done that in the previous era.

“Or is this some sort of ‘division of labor’ where the ‘Firechasers’ are responsible for collecting and passing on the tinder of the genes? However, the civilizations of the previous era did not seem to expect that the ‘Firechasers’ chose to live until now…”

“If so, shouldn’t we do the same thing in this era? Gather as many genes as possible to prepare for the future?”

With that thought in mind, he created a new ‘pending matter’ for himself to prepare to create an ‘Organic Encyclopedia’ for that era.

After that, he put his current energy back into the ‘Spiral Galaxy Alpha.’ He still had many things to do in that galaxy that was divided by the ‘Heavenly Chasm..’
