This is the last sound Amber heard at the bottom of the vortex.

Now, this vortex made of countless lights and shadows twisted around her has completely solidified. The chaotic darkness enveloped everything she could see outside the vortex. She had already reached the bottom of this historical memory. At the bottom of this vortex, there was a vague but insurmountable obstacle. She tried to move deeper into the vortex, trying to see clearly what was there on the back of the fuzzy obstacle.

It should be a time point that is older than the bottom of the vortex, and it should be what happened before the last conversation between those huge ancient beings. She tried her best to stick to the fog-like but insurmountable barrier, and felt that she seemed to have vaguely seen some interlaced, gray-white light and shadow. However, when she blinked again, she found that there was only darkness in front of her.

At this moment, a huge attraction suddenly came from behind.

"Oh mom..." Amber had only time to let out a scream, and felt that her whole body was forcibly pulled away from the vortex by the huge attraction. At the same time, she also felt the vortex itself repelling her. Everything she saw in her eyes gradually became blurred in rapid movement, and gradually returned to darkness in blur. This process may have lasted for several hours, or it may have only been a moment.

Amber found that her perception of the passage of time had been severely torn, as if she had lived a long time than the civilized narrative, so she could no longer accurately judge the differences in these "short time". However, before she could carefully experience this strange feeling, this feeling quickly peeled off from her soul. She regained her normal perception of time, and felt again... the sunshine of the real world shone on her.

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw herself standing in a room covered with a blue velvet carpet. Gao Wen was sitting at the desk, holding a pen in his hand, preparing to finish the last line on the paper.

She felt that she had been up and down in a certain vision for a whole day, but only a moment in the real world passed, and this moment was even shorter than that ordinary people could not detect. Amber blinked her eyes, and the experience of ups and downs in the vision had a certain sense of tearing between the reality that seemed to have never been interrupted in front of her, which made her feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

At this moment, Gao Wen, who was supposed to be unaware of the moment just now, suddenly raised his head. He stopped the movement in his hand and his eyes fell on Amber with a steady look.

Before Amber spoke, he broke the silence first: "What happened just now?"

Noting that Amber's face had a weird expression, as if she was confused and didn't know how to speak, Gao Wen then added: "I just felt your breath... there was a very, very short fluctuation, as if it suddenly disappeared. It lasted less than one percent of a second, but I was sure that I didn't feel wrong. Now looking at your expression... Is something happening?"

In recent times, Amber has always been entangled by abnormal phenomena. Gao Wen has always cared about this. Therefore, even if he only noticed a little abnormality, he would immediately notice and confirm the other party's condition. Now it seems... the abnormal phenomenon has indeed appeared again.

"I just now... I just looked at the patterns you drew, and suddenly it seemed to be 'sent' to somewhere," Amber finally came to his senses. Although the strange sense of tearing in his heart was still there, the conversation with Gao Wen quickly pulled her mind back to the "real world", which made her state improve rapidly and her language became smoother. "I feel like I have fallen into a vortex of light and shadow. The vortex is full of ancient historical moments, and I keep falling in it..."

Amber began to describe his unusual experience carefully. Gao Wen became serious. He listened intently, and at the same time he turned over the pattern that was about to be finished with the last stroke and turned it upside down on the table.

His expression gradually became solemn, his brows frowned little by little. When he heard Amber mention the huge starship falling on the sea, he wanted to interrupt the other party's narrative for a while, but in the end he remained quiet and let Amber tell everything he saw in the vortex in one breath.

"Then I was pulled back... It was not very accurate to say that I was pulling back. I felt two forces, one force pulling me back to the real world, and the other force came from the vortex, which was pushing me out," Amber said after he was dry, and picked up the water cup on Gao Wen's desk and poured it down halfway. "Actually, I originally planned to stay on that 'bottom' to observe carefully. I had a vague feeling that I should be able to see the thing opposite the barrier, but I was interrupted as soon as I saw it..."

"Being interrupted is not necessarily a bad thing. If your mind really sinks into the deepest place, it may be dangerous," Gao Wen spoke extremely solemnly. His eyes were staring at Amber's eyes, and after a moment of thinking, he continued in a deep voice, "So... you saw the scene of the Departure's arrival on this planet, and even saw a certain moment before the Departure's arrival."

Amber nodded immediately: "It should be true, and those huge creatures talking around me... I suspect they were the ancient gods at that time!"

Gao Wen nodded slowly, his expression was tense, but his heart was already filled with storm.

If everything Amber saw was something that had happened, if the information she heard in the conversations she had revealed was as he guessed, if his judgment was not wrong... Then now, a completely subversive truth hit him!

Over the past years, his understanding and conjecture of the Settler and the ancient gods will be greatly impacted in the face of this truth. His understanding in this regard will inevitably be greatly revised. History... is not what he imagined!

Before the Settler descended on this planet, the ancient gods of Loren, who were on the verge of madness, had a brief conversation. They did not know how to break through the rule barrier that cannot be communicated between gods, and made a decision in that conversation that could affect the fate of the entire world. They... sent out a "signal" to the outside and "declare their existence" to a group of existences.

Who did they send the signal to? Who did they expose their coordinates to? The answer is probably very obvious... At the bottom of the historical vortex, Amber has witnessed the fate chosen by the ancient gods himself.

Gao Wen has always thought that the setter passed by this planet by chance and happened to meet the gods of this planet, and the gods who had entered the final stage of madness. All the ancient gods could not save them, so he had to destroy the entire ancient god system and take away other tribes on this planet except the dragon. He has always thought that all this was a coincidence, but now it seems... there are not so many coincidences in this world.

The Settler was summoned by the ancient gods themselves! This is a... collective suicide.

Amber saw Gao Wen's face change drastically. Of course, she could guess what the other party was thinking. In fact, after she figured out the clues, she felt the same storm in her heart. She couldn't help but speak: "You said... if what I heard is true, does it mean that the gods of Loren took the initiative to send out some kind of 'call' outward movement more than 1.8 million years ago? They were calling the Fleet of the Departures?"

"That may be that their last choice was inevitable at that time. The disaster of gods was not controlled by the gods themselves. In the last awake time, all they could do was to save the last survivors of that season of civilization by committing suicide. After all, gods on the verge of madness cannot be saved, but mortals still have to save..." Gao Wen's voice was low, and he slowly said the conclusion he had come up with, but it was speculation that this was probably the truth of that year. "As the most powerful existence on a planet, they were even difficult to commit suicide, so the only choice was the setter."

"But how did they know the Departureman?" Amber widened his eyes, "How did they know that the Departureman would definitely receive a signal to come? Loren must have not had contact with the Departureman fleet at that time..."

"I don't know, maybe the Descendant ship was nearby at that time, and the Loren civilization at that time had developed to a height where deep space observations could be conducted, and perhaps the Descendant ship would broadcast some kind of broadcast on its own course. The ancient gods of Loren received this information," Gao Wen shook his head, "There are so many without evidence that there are so many guesses. The gods live in the deep sea, and in the deep sea, the information of the entire universe is reflected in some form. Although the gods themselves are trapped in thought, they can also know some things that mortals cannot know through the mapping in the deep sea. The Descendant ship... The fleet that can kill the gods is probably enough to spread to dozens of planets. But now they are far away from this universe domain, and we have no way to verify this."

Speaking of this, he paused and continued: "These are not important. What is important is the part that already has evidence... It is the ancient gods of Loren who summoned the fleet of the Settlement themselves. This fact is too impactful. If this is true... Then many of my speculations about ancient history may have to be adjusted, especially the attitude of the Settlement towards the ancient gods of Loren..."

He frowned, constantly overturning and reshaping everything in his impression.

The killing of the ancient gods of Loren is real, but their attitude is not out of hatred to kill them all... When the ancient gods summoned the founder, they should have been the last stage of their awakening. When the founder arrived, the gods were obviously completely crazy... The gods were not completely unable to communicate with each other. There was some way to break through this obstacle. The ancient gods of Loren used this method to complete their conspiracy for their own destiny...

The most critical point in this series of intelligence is that the Settler did not have real hostility to the gods of Loren at that time! The seemingly cold and ruthless "hunting battle" recorded by the brief war report is essentially a transaction!

Gao Wen glanced at the paper that was turned upside down on the table. He thought of the "Star Map Custodian" recorded in Cangqiong Station, and thought of a speculation he had made over the past few days...

If the relationship between the Settler and the Gods of Loren is really what he understood, then this speculation will finally be valid.

Amber, who was standing beside him, was also deeply thinking, and after thinking, he suddenly muttered: "Such an important historical truth... The dragons in Tallond knew nothing, and even Ms. Enya didn't know it? They seemed to have always thought that the setter had suddenly arrived..."

"It is normal for Ms. Enya to be unaware of the truth of the arrival of the Departure, because long before the Departure came, Tallond entered a state of closed external and closed faith. In order to prevent their gods from falling out of control, the dragons guided and "encapsulated" their gods through conscious thoughts. This is a kind of all-round shield," Gao Wen analyzed while thinking, "And there is another point, Tallond's dragon civilization..."

He raised his head and looked into Amber's eyes.

"Don't forget the words you heard at the bottom of the vortex. Although the Dragon Kingdom is the oldest civilization on our planet now, in the era when the Settlers arrived, they were still a 'young polar civilization'. At that time, Tallond might have been just a closed and backward icefield tribe in front of the ancestors of Loren..."

Amber nodded slowly: "This is... I have inertial thinking. I think that such a powerful Tallond civilization should have been very powerful in ancient times, but I forgot that the dragon also developed little by little from the primitive society."

As she said, she also frowned, with a serious and a little nervous look on her face: "The key point now is, what's going on with the 'records' I've seen? Who left them? Why did they stay? And more importantly... Why did I see these things?"

Her eyes fell on the piece of paper that Gao Wen placed on the table: "...everything was after I saw these patterns..."

Gao Wen took the paper away a little further: "If you know this thing is weird, then you still read it."

As he said that, he shook his head again. Many clues had been connected in his mind. The conclusion was actually very obvious, but Amber, the "person in the game", obviously hadn't turned around for a while.

"These patterns come from the 'anknife generator' in the Sky Station, closely connected with the mysterious 'Star Map Custodian'," he said slowly, connecting many clues in his mind to each other. "The star Map Custodian bears a certain mission of observation and waiting. It is his duty to record the important historical nodes on this planet. This 'Star Map Custodian' seems to be not the setter, but an existence that is 'recruited' or 'transformed' by the setter;

“The initial fragment of history you see at ‘The Bottom of the Vortex’ happened before the arrival of the Settler, which shows that the individual who left this historical record had lived in that era;

“Your perspective was standing between a group of huge figures suspected to be the ancient gods, and the person to which you belonged had spoken, so this individual... should be one of the ancient gods of Loren;

"One of the ancient gods who have disappeared from ancient times, there is only one existence that is the most special. He survived the ancient hunt and has been hidden from the sight of all living beings. He holds the power of shadow, and the hall where the "anchor generator" is stored in the sky station is also filled with the power of shadow..."

Gao Wen stopped and looked quietly into Amber's eyes: "Thus, you have a perfect connection with all this."

At this time, Amber slowly connected all the clues, and thousands of words turned into an exclamation: "...Mom."
