Chapter 803 Theory of Historical Fall
Shangguan Yan put breakfast on the table, took off her apron and sat down. At this time, Xia Shou noticed that she was still wearing the electronic watch on her wrist.

"Yesterday in the Origin Sea, there was an abnormal current. It should be a piece of history that sank. Just last night, I also received news that the base that had just been established in the Blood Cave had lost contact, and the people who were supposed to come out of the Blood Cave have not returned."

Xia Shou looked up at the other party and tentatively guessed, "What sank yesterday was the underworld?"

The underworld is a lost period of history. If we lost contact during this period, it might be that the underworld sank.

"It's possible. It's still under investigation." Shangguan Yan replied.

"Minister, there is one thing I don't understand. There is a seven-branched history tree in the Root Sea. According to the theory, we are the last branch of the seven-branched history tree. If we look at it from this image, the position of past history on the tree should be lower than ours. Why does the sinking of past history affect us who are at a higher position?"

“Haha, you’re a good questioner, but it’s wrong to look at the Seven-branched History Tree with a concrete image. The underworld is indeed a lost time in the past, but it’s also history that exists now.

The same is true for cyclical history. The past and present are only for the convenience of our understanding of the nature of the behavior of traveling to these times, and do not mean that they really existed in the past.

If cyclical history really happened in the past, then how come you, who traveled back in time to change cyclical history, didn't cause a huge change in the present world?

You should understand this, right? The difference between going back to the past in the true sense and having a certain part of the past perfectly reproduced and maintained as a specimen. "

After hearing this, Xia Shou immediately understood.

The past of cyclical history is not really the past. It just persists to the present in the form of the past and keeps pace with the present.

And truly going back to the past is [seeking one's own death]!
Only [Self-Destruction] can directly affect the future that has already happened by going back to the past.

From this perspective, the time and space specially created by the gods have not become the past. What has really become the past is actually the ordinary history, and they are the ones that can never be returned.

"But the fall of history is a very big event." Shangguan Yan said, "This kind of thing has happened in history, and the final result is that the present world has been betrayed by the past."

"Defection from the past?"

"Hmm." Shangguan Yan stuffed the fried egg into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and explained, "A period of history is falling, falling from the present to the past. The first to feel it are us modern people living in the present, and then the ancients in the past.

As I said just now, those special histories actually belong to the present, but everything they perceive is a perfect replica of what happened in the past. This is also the reason why the indigenous people in the cyclical history cannot know that they have become history.

The root sea we enter when we fall asleep is the newest root sea, and the root sea they enter is the past root sea, so the history of their fall will pass through their root sea layer by layer, all the way down.

Haha, it's very hard to understand, right? It is indeed very hard to understand. It is very difficult to use human logic to build a framework to explain everything behind this phenomenon. I just divided the root sea into the present root sea and the past root sea. This is actually wrong. There is only one root sea, covering everything, but because we can only feel a constant sea at a certain moment, so for us, the root sea at this moment is the present sea, and the past is the past sea.

This is getting off topic. These theories are not what we need to care about. What we need to solve are real problems. The trouble that the fall of history brings us is that people who repeat history can come into contact with future events.

If the underworld continues to fall and eventually stops at a certain period in the past, then the residents of that cyclical history will be able to directly enter this history that should have been in the future, and they will also see through the biggest truth and know that they have become history.

This kind of thing has happened before. Once people in the past know that they are in a cycle of history, life and death are no longer important. In the ever-changing cycle of life, the things that one pursues are illusory. Many people will unite and work towards a goal.

That goal is to invade the real present and become modern people. To this end, they will gather all their strength, follow the ladder of the history tree, and continue to climb up, passing through one history after another that is the future for them, and finally arrive in our present world.

And wherever they go, all historical figures will understand their true situation. People from BC arrived after AD and brought the truth to after AD. So people from BC and after AD united and moved forward into the future. Then it was the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries. They expanded their military forces along the way, and when they finally arrived in modern times, they had become a huge threat that should not be underestimated.

This is the defection from the past, the defection recorded in the past, in which many modern people were deprived of the right to exist in the present, and many ancient people became modern people. "

"Then this situation is not very serious? Shouldn't the Control Bureau take action immediately?"

"Don't worry, the situation is not that urgent. It will take them some time to react. For example, now I ask you, how can you be sure that we are not in a cycle of history?" Shangguan Yan looked at Xia Shou with a smile in his eyes.

Xia Shou opened his mouth and was stunned for a while, then his mind calmed down.

Indeed, how did he know that he was not in a cycle of history?
Although in his perception, he seemed to be the first person to feel the impact of the sinking ocean current, but to the ancients in the past, they were all the first batch.

The underworld is considered as past history in terms of time. It has fallen, and there is no way to prove whether they are residents of cyclical history.

On the contrary, if future history falls down, they will be the first to realize that they have become history and are in the past.

Seeing that Xia Shou had figured it out, Shangguan Yan continued, "Moreover, the impact of the historical fall is like global warming. It won't cause any problems in a short period of time. Even if the ancients have discovered the truth and are determined to attack us, it will take a long time to reach the modern era.

Researchers have used the power of the forest horse to deduce this. If we do not go through a period of time with an abnormal flow of time, the time required to reach the present from the past will take an average of one tenth of the time difference.

That is to say, if people from four hundred years ago wanted to reach us, it would generally take them forty years.”
