"Actually, I lied to you back then. Those people weren't from countless races; they all shared one identity, which is—you!"
"Or rather, different versions of you."
Xu fell into the deepest state of reminiscence, murmuring like a dream, "We originally came from Earth. Due to an accident, we crossed into another universe."
"The technology there was incredibly advanced, millions of times more so than Earth's!"
"We lived there uneasily because our consciousness couldn't keep up with the form of society, living every day in constant fear."
"Until one day, a faction of scientists suddenly went mad and detonated an interstellar-level weapon, the Emotion Oscillator."
"Do you know what that thing is equivalent to?"
"In a way you can understand, it's equivalent to the power of hundreds of billions of nuclear bombs indiscriminately bombarding Earth at the same time, enough to completely annihilate that civilization."
