Chapter 191 The Truth (Part 7)

It's unclear whether they've already completed the so-called "ritual" and are confident of victory, or whether they intend to determine Jin's origins based on her words.

In short, while Jin was speaking eloquently.

Samantha and Mellen Dott, both on the platform, remained silent.

Myron Dort's fingers were tapping lightly on the outside of his thigh, as if he were starting some program.

Then, Qiao Kewen, sitting in the audience, stroked his chin and asked Jin, "So, Ms. Jin, from what you're saying, the destruction of New Aurora seems to have other reasons?"

“That’s not necessarily true,” Jin shook her head, denying Qiao Kewen’s guess: “The process of New Aurora’s demise was actually quite clear. It wasn’t the kind of sudden death that happened inexplicably. Talking about conspiracy theories is a bit of an exaggeration.”

"What I really wanted to express was something else—the new Aurora hasn't grown to the level it should have grown to, or the level it was expected to reach, and that's the key point."

Qiao Kewen blinked quickly.

It hasn't grown to the level it should have grown to?
Jin's logic is not hard to understand.

Imagine a football player who shines brightly among his peers in his teens, with many people predicting he will become a top star. However, as he grows up, his performance gradually declines, he moves from club to club, and eventually no one cares about him, leading to a hasty retirement before he even turns thirty.

There are many reasons why a genius might fall from grace, and some of them may indeed be conspiracy theories, such as having their ankle broken by a jealous teammate during a training match.

But most of the time, it's simply a matter of natural events—such as choosing the wrong agent, having a bad relationship with the coach, or failing to seize opportunities.
These flawed plans are regrettable, but they are not quite at the level of conspiracy theories or other hidden motives.

So what Jin really wanted to say was...
Think of this.

Qiao Kewen finally realized: "Ms. Jin, you mean that the new Aurora is actually a 'genius'?"

“That’s right,” Jin said, glancing at the collapsed ceiling. “To be precise, it possesses top-tier talent—if I’m not mistaken, Xu Jinyan’s remnant army should be carrying something.”

Qiao Kewen asked instinctively, "What is that?"

Jin paused for a moment: "This is the source of the Bhikkhu Kingdom breaking the alliance and igniting the Iron Curtain War."

Qiao Kewen's breath hitched.

At the same time, Jin glanced at the high platform in the distance, not knowing whether she was looking at Boko III or Myron Dort: "Unfortunately, the technology of that source was too advanced, so advanced that New Aurora did not have time to apply it in reality before the regime was destroyed."

"But there should also be a few capable people in New Aurora who hid the source in some way before their destruction, so much so that the pursuers of the Kingdom of Bhikkhu did not realize that they had actually eliminated such a 'genius' who was carrying a heavy object, until someone appeared."

Jokowi glanced at her, then took a deep breath: "Stephen Doyle, the first monarch of Bosca?"

“Yes,” Jin nodded again, “it’s him.”

“But how is that possible?” Despite receiving a positive answer from Jin, Joe Cowen’s face was still full of doubt: “Stephen Doyle and New Aurora are separated by hundreds of thousands of years. What connection could there be between them? It can’t really be like the legend of Bosca, where he awakened some kind of spiritual awareness, can it?”

Qiao Kewen was referring to the story passed down from Boska, which Jin had briefly mentioned to Gu Wei once before.

Basically, Stephen Doyle is a born knower who, like Buddha, awakened his spiritual awareness at the moment of his birth, and then used this knowledge to find a cloth production workshop left behind in New Aurora.

The clothing provided by the workshop helped Stephen Doyle and his people survive the harsh winter, which enabled them to successfully develop the later Bosca civilization, and Stephen Doyle was elected as the leader of the civilization.

The story sounds plausible, but it's completely untenable. Even a native of the Lost Paths like Jokowen just took it as a story. "Spiritual perception is obviously fake. Every civilization likes to add a touch of mysticism to the stories of its ancestors," Jin shook her head upon hearing this, then quickly changed the subject: "But the story isn't necessarily entirely distorted—although Stephen Doyle and New Aurora span a considerable period of time, it's insignificant compared to the vast amount of information available."

Qiao Kewen was stunned again.

information?

He then glanced at his android body, a flash of inspiration striking him, and he vaguely guessed some of the truth: "You mean that New Aurora turned the source of the war into information fragments, which drifted in the Labyrinth for hundreds of thousands of years, and finally, to some extent, were reassembled in Stephen Doyle's body?"

This time.

A hint of emotion finally appeared on Jin's face: "That's right."

life.

This concept is quite profound and complex, but in essence, it is the process of interactive recombination of information in the form of matter.

The atoms in a life form's left and right hands may have come from different stars tens of thousands of years ago.

When you look up at the starry sky, the galaxies your eyes are looking at may have been related to the particles that make up your eyes countless years ago.

The handshake between two strangers meeting for the first time on a planet may also be the first encounter of certain substances across billions of years.

And Stephen Doyle.
It is a special life form born from interactive recombination.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago.

As the near-destruction of New Aurora approached, it "melted" the heavy object that had triggered the war between two seventh-tier civilizations into the Maze, transforming it into countless particles carrying fragments of information that drifted within the Maze.

At the same time, due to certain special technological limitations, these particles can only wander within the labyrinth zone.

True.

In ordinary galaxies in the universe, these particles might not be able to recombine into anything even after hundreds of thousands or billions of years, let alone tens of thousands of years.

But don't forget.

This is the Aurora Maze, and in its core region, four neutron stars vibrate constantly.

These gravitational ripples are like rapidly vibrating strings, repeatedly oscillating and merging particles invisible to the naked eye at frequencies many times greater than normal.

It's like countless tiny magnets tumbling at high speed in a certain space; if the resulting structure is incorrect, it immediately disintegrates and recombines.

Under repeated tremors.

Hundreds of thousands of years after the destruction of New Aurora, a being named Stephen Doyle was 'assembled'.

Physiologically, Doyle was no different from most Labyrinthine beings, but in another realm invisible to the naked eye, he was different.
An integrated carrier of certain information.

The follow-up appointment is scheduled for June 6.4th. I hope I won't need surgery.
