230: Chapter 230 Escaping the Solar System (2)

Just as Gao Yuan was feeling lost, the monitor showed that Pluto was rotating toward them!

Gao Yuan was stunned!

Pluto!

This was a dwarf planet that was once ranked among the nine major planets of the Solar System. Unlike Neptune and Uranus, it was a rocky planet and possessed an atmosphere.

If civilization still existed in the Solar System, it would likely be on Pluto!

Thus, Gao Yuan immediately dispatched the fleet to Pluto! Before even reaching the planet, aircraft emerged.

Gao Yuan had originally intended to fight, but he saw those warships turn and flee; they were very slow and had no offensive capabilities at all!

Everything after that was simple; the mechas descended and quickly occupied Pluto.

The leader of Pluto was brought before him.

When Gao Yuan saw him, he found an alien only one meter tall, with a body shape similar to a human's and skin that was nearly black!

At first glance, Gao Yuan thought it was a child from Africa.

Just as Gao Yuan took over Pluto, a dramatic change occurred throughout the Solar System.

From space, Gao Yuan witnessed time flowing backward.

In that instant, the entire Solar System began to rapidly restore its original state.

It was as if it had been reset with a single click.

Seeing this scene, Gao Yuan was dumbfounded.

The Moon returned, the surface of Mars was restored, and even Saturn was back to normal.

Gao Yuan felt a bit lost, wondering what he should do.

At that moment, his Space-Time Gate actually manifested on its own. Previously, it only appeared when Gao Yuan summoned it, but now it had emerged automatically.

Gao Yuan was very confused...

What did this mean?

Furthermore, the Space-Time Gate was expanding infinitely.

Gao Yuan hesitated for a moment.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration hit him—was it telling him to travel through it?

He asked Mo Yun, "Can you see what's ahead?"

"Yes, there's a gate..."

Gao Yuan was shocked.

If Mo Yun could see it, did that mean everyone could see it? Did it mean everyone could travel through the Space-Time Gate?

Gao Yuan ordered the first batch of mechas to pass through the Space-Time Gate first.

Soon after, he also traveled through and saw that the mecha squad was already in the Future World.

However, the Future World was also silent, with no traces of civilization.

Gao Yuan immediately ordered the entire fleet to pass through the Space-Time Gate.

Although he didn't know what purpose it served, the appearance of the Space-Time Gate at this time had to be useful for something.

Once the entire fleet had passed through the Space-Time Gate, Gao Yuan saw the gate vanish...

And no matter how he tried to summon it, it never appeared again.

Gao Yuan fell silent; the Space-Time Gate that had accompanied him for several years had disappeared just like that.

Was it because it had completed its mission?

Mo Yun looked at the surroundings; this place was almost identical to the Real World...

"Marshal, where is this?"

"It's a parallel world!"

"Huh? Where are the people here?"

"There's no one left!"

Gao Yuan's face was full of loneliness...

The Advanced Civilization had struck this place; Gao Qiu and the others were gone.

Gao Yuan didn't believe Gao Qiu and the others could have escaped the Advanced Civilization's pursuit.

Now, Gao Yuan's heart was filled with sorrow; that old fox Gao Qiu was actually gone.

There were no traces of humanity left here at all.

Just then, Fire King and Mo Ti came to Gao Yuan's side...

Mo Ti was heavily pregnant.

Gao Yuan felt awkward looking at her; after all, that was his handiwork.

"Marshal Gao, it's up to you now..."

"Huh? What am I supposed to do?"

Gao Yuan asked.

Fire King shook his head. "I don't know either. We'll do whatever you say."

While Gao Yuan was still in a daze, a wormhole suddenly appeared ahead.

Gao Yuan was all too familiar with wormholes; it was through a wormhole that he had entered the Polaris Civilization back then.

He had glimpsed a sliver of information there.

Now that a wormhole had reappeared, could it be that the Advanced Civilization had chased them here?

Gao Yuan immediately ordered the fleet to prepare for battle.

Although the chances of winning were slim, Gao Yuan would not just sit and wait for death.

Just as he was thinking this, four aircraft emerged from the wormhole.

Gao Yuan was taken aback...

He saw a person step out of one of the aircraft, someone he was familiar with...

"Gao Gan?"

"Gao Yuan, hurry! Get in!"

"Go where?"

"The wormhole!"

"What about them?"

"Everyone come in together!"

Gao Yuan didn't believe Gao Gan would harm him, so he followed into the wormhole without hesitation...

Just as the Human Fleet entered the wormhole, the Solar System suddenly began to collapse. The Sun expanded drastically, swallowing all celestial bodies within the system, then collapsed into countless points of light and vanished without a trace.

After entering the wormhole, Gao Yuan looked at the bizarre and kaleidoscopic scenes around him as countless civilizations flashed before his eyes.

Gao Yuan saw the early human ancestors taming wild beasts, saw how the people of Jupiter abandoned their physical bodies... and saw the people of Saturn building cities in methane seas...

He looked at the others; they all had blank expressions, as if they had fallen into a state of stasis.

After an unknown amount of time, everything before Gao Yuan's eyes went black...

His body felt light.

He saw that the surrounding scenery had changed.

At this moment, Gao Gan's aircraft flew to the warship where Gao Yuan was... After opening an interface, Gao Gan stepped out.

There were three others with him.

Gao Yuan had never seen them before.

The four of them entered Gao Yuan's warship.

"Gao Gan, what's going on? Where are we?"

"Look ahead. A triple star system—does it look familiar? Proxima Centauri is only three light-years from here!"

Proxima Centauri?

Wasn't that the closest star to the Sun?

Gao Yuan looked puzzled...

"Gao Gan, we've escaped the Solar System? How did we get out?"

Looking at Gao Gan, Gao Yuan felt he seemed a bit different than before; the current Gao Gan felt somewhat like a stranger.

"We have indeed escaped the Solar System now, but the Polaris People are looking for you! You'd better leave quickly!"

"Go where?"

"Go to Proxima Centauri first; humanity needs a new base! In humanity's current state, if the Polaris People catch up, there's only death!"

"Can we escape?"

"I don't know, but there's a chance. Right now they're still searching for you in the Solar System. There are millions of three-dimensional worlds; by the time they're certain you've escaped, a long time will have passed... Perhaps by then, you'll have developed into something very powerful!"

Gao Yuan's mind was still in a fog.

"Was this a plan laid out by Gao Qiu?"

Gao Yuan asked, though he knew the answer as soon as he finished the question. Besides Gao Qiu, who else could have laid such a plan?

"Yes, Father exhausted his heart and soul just to set the stage for leaving the Solar System! From the moment you were born, Father knew you were different... You are a hybrid of human and Polaris person; you are a true Four-dimensional being!"

"So we've entered Four-dimensional Space now?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"No... this universe is different from what you imagine. Actually, this is the first multi-dimensional space complex, while the entire universe itself is actually two-dimensional... Single-star systems are three-dimensional, and multi-star systems are four-dimensional!"

Gao Yuan still didn't understand...
