Technological supremacy starts with acquiring alien spaceships

Chen Yu felt incredulous; the scene he had just witnessed was definitely different from what he remembered.

He was certain he hadn't given an OK sign with his hand behind him.

Then who was that person in the scene he saw earlier?

Why would he give him an OK sign?

Chen Yu frantically called out to the AI, wanting to record everything.

But after shouting for a long time, the AI remained unresponsive.

Chen Yu remembered that the AI had said it would go into hibernation when they first entered the wormhole's opening.

This meant that everything he was seeing now was only visible to him.

The scene before him disappeared, and the distorted light continued to rush towards Chen Yu.

Then, as if passing through his body, it vanished into the vast darkness behind him.

"I remember that the last time I entered a wormhole, I had a dream and saw another version of myself, with an invisible barrier separating us.

Could this be another dream of mine?"

Chen Yu carefully sensed the surrounding environment, feeling as if he were standing in a dark space surrounded by abyss.

No, this definitely wasn't a dream.

I remember the feeling of being watched from behind was so strong before entering the wormhole space.

Suddenly, the surroundings began to gradually brighten, like an endless white light enveloping his entire being.

Chen Yu couldn't open his eyes completely.

He didn't know how long it lasted, but the intense light dissipated.

Everything returned to calm, and Chen Yu opened his eyes again.

Unsurprisingly, he woke up to the cries of surprise from his wives.

"A'Yu is awake!"

"Ah, my husband is awake!"

Chen Yu slowly opened his eyes and saw the familiar faces around him again.

It felt so good.

"Why am I lying down again?"

"We don't know either.

After we entered the wormhole, we seemed to be automatically separated.

When we woke up, we saw you lying there motionless,"

Solala explained to Chen Yu.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"A few hours, maybe."

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.

He clearly felt that entering the wormhole and seeing those scenes had taken less than ten minutes.

However, Chen Yu didn't think too much about it, as he had encountered this situation before.

But this time, Chen Yu was certain that the scenes he saw in the wormhole were so real.

‘Where are we now? Is this the universe you're from?’

[Based on a Level 7 peak civilization's technology, I have measured the microwave background radiation of this universe.

This does indeed belong to the same universe as our planet, but I have also measured various pulsar positions within tens of billions of light-years around us, and none of them match the star systems in my database.

Therefore, the ship has returned to my former universe, but we still don't know where in this universe we are.]

‘So the exit of this wormhole is completely different from the location you previously entered!’

[That should be the case, but we can't rule out the possibility that we came out from another opening of the wormhole, so we were teleported to any corner of the universe.]

‘Now that we've arrived in your universe, we should be able to find your planet.

By the way, AI, after entering the wormhole opening, I saw some incredible scenes again.’

Chen Yu told the AI everything he had seen in the wormhole space.

After a long while, the AI's voice sounded.

[Captain, I have retrieved the video footage from the command room before we entered the wormhole.

You did look back at that time, but everything in the command room was normal, and no spatial fluctuations were detected.]

[If it was you from the future spying on your past self, and you happened to sense it at that time, it would indeed be an incredible event.

According to our Level 7 civilization's research on the laws of time and space, this situation is highly likely to be time travel during the wormhole traversal, or it could be a result of space-time distortion.]

[In the river of time, you glimpsed the intermediate secrets of the universe!

Perhaps after your life form reaches a higher level, you will unlock all these mysteries.]

‘Did the people of your former planet encounter this kind of situation?’

[I don't know; it's not in my database.

Perhaps you have a talent for understanding the laws of time and space.

As for what you said about seeing yourself giving an OK sign, it could be due to the confusion of time and space, causing another parallel universe version of you to communicate with you.]

‘There's such a thing?

Are there really parallel universes?

Is there really an identical version of myself in a parallel universe?’

[Captain, even our Level 7 peak civilization hasn't fully understood this.

However, there was once a researcher on our planet whose brain development was equivalent to a peak Stage 9 scientist who believed that there are countless parallel universes like ours.

Perhaps a change in our thoughts or the uncertainty of events could create countless parallel universes.

Once one can comprehend the laws of time and space, one can traverse through these countless possibilities, which are countless parallel universes.]

[Why are those higher civilizations able to observe us from a higher dimension?

Perhaps it is because they can see countless possibilities of us.

That's why we call them god-level civilizations.

They can return to the past, go to the future, and travel freely in the river of time.

Every point in these worlds is equivalent to a parallel space-time!]

Chen Yu listened to the AI's explanation.

Although many of them seemed like absurd claims without any scientific basis.

But the end of science is metaphysics, perhaps that is just the limit of human imagination, and the truth is unimaginable.

‘Alright, let's not talk about this for now.

I believe we will definitely find the answer!’

[Alright, Captain!]

Afterward, Chen Yu conducted a collective investigation of the thousands of Mesolas humanoids on the Millennium Falcon.

To see what they saw after entering the wormhole.

Chen Yu had expected the results of the investigation.

Sure enough, they only saw some distorted light and galaxies passing through their bodies.

Not even one person had Chen Yu's experience, let alone seeing any strange scenes.

‘Do I really have a talent for understanding time and space?

It seems that increasing my life form level will allow me to see more answers the next time I encounter this situation!’

Next, Chen Yu had the AI search for electromagnetic waves, abnormal signals, or universal deep-space broadcasts emitted by life-bearing planets in the nearby starfield.

However, the Millennium Falcon stopped to search every 10 million light-years, continuously traversing a distance of 100 million light-years.

And they didn't find a single artificial electromagnetic wave.

Thus, a month passed...
