Chapter 1230: Chapter 55: The First Millennium Stake (Extra for Alliance Leader Jiuge Hulu!)_4
“Don’t mind the appearance.”
Liu Feng explained:
“In order to meet the deadline, functionality is all that matters. Besides, it’s designed for independent operation as a positioning module, and many parts are temporary external attachments, so aesthetics aren’t a priority.”
“That’s not important.”
Lin Xian waved his hand:
“Quickly, put the space-time particles inside, let’s test whether we can detect a space-time rift.”
Liu Feng picked up a small refrigerator from the corner.
He input the password.
Opened the door.
Inside, the entangled state of space-time particles were still ceaselessly rotating at high speed, intertwining with one another.
Liu Feng grabbed a specialized clip, carefully extracting the particles from the refrigerator without touching them, and placed them into the chamber of the time shuttle machine’s positioning module.
Click, click.
After completing the transfer, Liu Feng fiddled with the clip, his face brimming with pride as he showed off to Lin Xian:
“This clip can transfer space-time particles without loss, and I’ve named it—”
“A baking clip?”
“Wrong!”
Liu Feng responded confidently:
“It’s the Space-Time Clip!”
Clap, clap, clap.
Lin Xian gave three perfunctory claps:
“I’m sorry, I forgot your naming habit always requires a ‘space-time’ prefix… Brilliant, brilliant! So, can we start?”
Liu Feng set down the space-time clip, closed the cover, powered on the device, and officially activated the equipment!
Instantly.
The display screen began to flash and quickly displayed stable yet abstract images.
Lin Xian couldn’t quite make sense of them:
“I remember, the engineering blueprints I copied for you explained this in detail.”
Liu Feng nodded:
“Relax, I’ve studied it all. Let me operate it and explain it to you.”
With that said.
He started twisting knobs on the time shuttle machine’s positioning module, muttering to himself:
“Incredible! It really can detect space-time rifts! Although there’s no precise time references… we do have plenty of indicators.”
“Lin Xian, look, in 2024, there are many space-time rifts, but they’re all quite small. Except for July 1st, which has multiple rifts… every other date only has one!”
Lin Xian nodded:
“This proves that each world-line leap indeed generates a space-time rift—one leap corresponds to one rift—very precise.”
“But our target isn’t here. Check the first half of 2024, March 28th, the day Chu Anqing transformed into blue stardust and vanished during the staking event.”
Liu Feng twisted the knob, shifting the abstract images forward, then pointed to a particularly chaotic area, resembling a tangled mess of yarn:
“Here it is! While we can’t pinpoint the exact date, look at this—so many space-time rifts… it can only be caused by the Millennium Stakes staking event!”
“My god, there are so many… I can’t even count them. The Millennium Stakes staking process may look gentle to our naked eyes, but on the space-time level… it’s brutally violent—completely irrational, hammering a stake down and riddling continuous space-time with countless holes!”
“Push further back.”
Lin Xian directed:
“Check early 2000.”
As the images shifted…
Sure enough, another massive tangle appeared—scarred and chaotic lines everywhere.
“Similar to the images from 2024.”
Liu Feng described:
“These space-time rifts are overwhelming. The ones created by Zhang Yuqian during her staking event must number at least several hundred. From this, we can see… space-time rifts aren’t just confined to the staking day—they extend two months prior and two months after!”
The image continued moving backward.
On the timeline for 1976, another shocking and chaotic jumble appeared, looking like an entire box of sewing needles scattered on the ground.
Finally!
It arrived at 1952.
Lin Xian and Liu Feng both widened their eyes in anticipation—
It was unmistakable…
In the latter half of 1952, the same crisscrossing, rampant, intertwined chaos appeared! Identical to the earlier Millennium Stakes dispersal events!
“Since these characteristics are identical, it indicates…”
Liu Feng said softly:
“[In the latter half of 1952, there was undoubtedly a 20-year-old girl, a Millennium Stake, who transformed into blue stardust and disappeared!]”
Lin Xian narrowed his eyes.
Indeed…
His initial doubts and speculations were correct.
Einstein!
Whether he lied or was innocently manipulated…
In any case.
[The future outcome Einstein saw was undeniably fabricated!]”
“Look further back.”
Lin Xian urged:
“Now comes the moment of unveiling the truth… the year when the first Millennium Stake was driven.”
By identifying the earliest ‘tangled mess,’ there would be no dispute… that year would be when the first Millennium Stake was placed—the year the first generation Millennium Stake appeared!
Liu Feng’s breathing quickened.
He rapidly twisted the knob, pulling the timeline backward.
1930… 1900… 1860… 1770… 1440…
His twisting grew faster and faster.
Eventually, the markers blurred, likely stretching into B.C.
However!
There was no subsequent ‘tangled mess,’ not even a single space-time rift. The space-time lines were eerily stable!
“Stop pulling.”
Lin Xian said softly:
“Since the Millennium Stakes operate on a highly stable cycle of one placement every 24 years, the absence of space-time rifts in 1928 is sufficient evidence.”
Liu Feng exhaled deeply and nodded:
“It seems the conclusion is crystal clear. The space-time rift characteristics caused by the Millennium Stakes are too pronounced and too numerous. If traces existed before, we wouldn’t have missed them.”
Lin Xian straightened up from the instrument panel and gazed toward the distant horizon through the laboratory window.
No wonder…
1952, such a unique and mysterious year.
No wonder…
Zhang Yuqian’s dreams included 1952.
No wonder…
Almost all inexplicable events were tied to 1952.
Because.
Everything.
Began in 1952!
“1952.”
Lin Xian murmured the year:
“Here lies the origin of everything—the start of everything—the source of all secrets and truths.”
“[In the latter half of 1952, our space-time… was marked by the driving of the first Millennium Stake!]”
