459: Parallel Spacetime Interchange

After listening to Fuji's explanation, Romisius sighed and shrugged.

Alright.

But if you really like it, I can help you create a simulated AI so you can interact with it.

It's very simple; it can access various devices at any time anyway.

Fuji shook his head decisively.

No need.

I know the type you're talking about; it's similar to Jacob.

Let's not talk about this anymore. Tell me how to use this Time Shuttle.

Romisius nodded and began to explain how to operate the Time Shuttle to Fuji.

During the process, Jacob also appeared in the form of a middle-aged man in a suit.

He watched Fuji and Romisius communicating about the operation of the Time Shuttle.

Jacob did not interrupt but watched attentively from the side.

However, he could only understand a portion of what the two were saying.

To him, what Romisius said sounded like: Do this first, then do that, and then it will work like that.

And Fuji's reaction was: So it only takes this much? That's not difficult.

After hearing more, Jacob couldn't help but ask:

Are you sure you don't need to install something like robotic spider arms for him?

Can he really operate it with just a pair of hands?

Before Romisius could answer, Fuji waved his hand first.

It's a bit strenuous, but I can fly it.

Seeing this, Jacob nodded and didn't say anything more.

I'll go in and familiarize myself with the internal structure first.

With that, Fuji opened the hatch and entered the Time Shuttle.

Romisius walked toward Jacob with a look of delight.

Seeing the other's expression, the latter knew there was another surprise.

Sure enough, Romisius placed his hand on Jacob's shoulder and pointed to a device not far away.

The device was shaped similarly to a satellite phone, but the design was much more sci-fi.

What is this? Jacob asked curiously.

Romisius pushed up his glasses.

An extension of the Time Shuttle...

This is something I developed during the process, based on...

Seeing that Romisius was about to enter lecture mode, Jacob quickly raised his hand.

Alright, stop talking. I don't understand, and it's a waste of time. Just tell me the result directly.

Interrupted, Romisius had an unsatisfied expression.

Having a wealth of knowledge and concepts but almost no one to discuss them with was truly a great pity.

This, I haven't named it yet.

In plain terms, it's a Parallel Universe Communicator.

After Romisius finished speaking, he pushed up his glasses, stood with his hands behind his back, and lifted his chin slightly.

Jacob was left stunned, his gaze shifting back and forth between Romisius and the device.

What?

Romisius sighed and raised his voice a little.

A Parallel Universe Communicator!

I know that! I mean, this thing... how did you research it? Jacob asked in disbelief.

Other technologies were easy to explain; they were just based on the universe as a stage.

But this... it had already broken the shackles of the universe...

That's why it's just a communicator, not a shuttle.

Romisius let out a regretful sigh.

Clearly, he was still somewhat unsatisfied with this result.

The usage is also very simple; I was inspired by the special effects of the military radio.

However, unlike the military radio, you cannot force a connection by entering a name.

That would be too unscientific.

This communicator can only contact other versions of yourself in parallel universes.

But even so, this is the greatest breakthrough in history, perhaps in millions of years!

Its importance far exceeds that of the Time Shuttle!

Think about it, when one of us can communicate and contact ourselves in other parallel universes! What kind of reaction would that trigger?!

First of all, we are not sure how many parallel universes there are, nor are we sure how many of us there are!

And I am clearly the leader among all the 'me's in all parallel universes!

Once we communicate, I can convey all the theories I know to them, and conversely, they can convey what they know to me!

Such communication will prompt us to all reach the same technological level in a short time, and then, once one of us has a breakthrough, the others will follow suit!

Romisius said a lot in one breath, and Jacob could even see a hint of madness in his expression.

It was different from his own stubbornness.

That was a pure, extreme pursuit of technology and science.

Jacob held the communicator, his expression somewhat complex.

Romisius...

Is this... going to be dangerous?

What? Romisius was stunned, looking at Jacob with confusion.

Jacob thought for a moment.

Like you said, we don't know how many parallel universes there are.

So how can we be sure of their character and personality?

What if one of 'us' in a parallel universe is very warlike and stronger than us?

Romisius shook his head decisively.

That possibility does not exist.

If that were the case, they would have developed the communicator before I did.

Looking at the determined Romisius, Jacob sighed.

That's because you put your research focus on this.

Our attack methods are enough for us now.

What if they put the same energy into incomprehensible attack methods?

It's like for a fly, a flyswatter is the ultimate weapon, but that's just for convenience, do you understand?

We might just be that fly.

Jacob's words made Romisius fall into a moment of contemplation.

Seeing this, Jacob continued:

After all, they are parallel universes; experiences and personalities might be completely different.

But we have to try, right? What if?

We don't have to teach them directly; we can just communicate and contact them first!

What if the experiences in other parallel universes are similar to ours, just with different outcomes?

Romisius even grabbed the device from Jacob's hand and protected it like a treasure.

Looking at the other's appearance, Jacob's eyes were full of helplessness.

You actually think I would destroy it?

The feeling you give me is that it's not impossible, Romisius said firmly.

Alright, let's take a step back.

We'll try it, but I will be the one using it.

After all, you just said that this can only be used to contact oneself in parallel worlds.

I don't trust you to communicate with other 'Romisius's.

Romisius looked at Jacob with vigilance.

Meiling, please help me analyze his intentions.

Received.

A moment later, Meiling's voice sounded.

Everything Mr. Jacob said is true; he will not destroy the Parallel Universe Communicator.

Hearing Meiling's voice, Romisius finally felt relieved and handed the communicator to Jacob.

But Jacob's expression was dazed at this moment.
