The Last Commander of the Red Alert - Chapter 584: True and False Earth!
“Is the information confirmed?”
Su Chen looked at Yun Ru with a strange expression. If Yun Ru hadn’t personally told him about this, he wouldn’t have believed it himself.
He had clearly come from Earth, so how could there be another Earth elsewhere?
Could it be that the name Earth was common in the universe?
Unfortunately, Yun Ru’s next words shattered Su Chen’s thoughts.
“Commander, I didn’t believe what they said at first either. However, after separate interrogations and the fact that their language is identical to ours, we had no choice but to admit that this planet is indeed Earth. Moreover, much of the related information matches Earth almost perfectly.”
Yun Ru handed a stack of documents to Su Chen, who began examining them one by one. The documents contained information that Yun Ru and the others had gathered on this planet, including historical data.
It could be said that if you put these two planets side by side, anyone would think they were almost identical.
The only difference was that this Earth was much larger in size compared to the original Earth.
The star system where this planet was located was also named the Solar System, and all the surrounding planets were just like those on Earth. If Su Chen didn’t know better, he might have thought he had returned to Earth.
Even with just a brief glance, Su Chen could confirm that this was indeed Earth. After all, this history was something those people couldn’t fake, and the remnants of information found in the ruins of the city testified to its authenticity.
However, Earth had not been as fortunate as Earth Number. When the Zerg arrived, no one on Earth had become Transcendent. They could only rely on the power of technology to resist, and the result was that humanity was almost wiped out. The few survivors were barely clinging to life, not knowing when the Zerg would discover and kill them.
To be honest, when a group of soldiers in military uniforms descended from the sky, these people thought they were seeing things.
They had never imagined that after the world had been destroyed by nuclear weapons, there would still be an organized army in the world. This filled them with hope.
However, what puzzled them was that after they were brought to a massive base and subjected to separate interrogations, they were asked some very basic questions, the kind that everyone should know the answers to.
“Yun Ru, give me an analysis of the current situation,” Su Chen said, feeling a headache coming on. If he encountered an enemy, he could simply confront them head-on, but in this situation, he didn’t know what to do.
If this was Earth, then what was the Earth he originally came from?
Could there really be two Earths in the universe, and both identical in every way?
The possibility of him evolving into this state on his own was close to zero. He couldn’t believe it unless someone was guiding it from behind.
The question was, who would be so bored as to create a second Earth in another star system, and to have everything on this Earth develop exactly the same as on the original Earth? This was not something an ordinary person could accomplish.
He would need to have an intimate knowledge of Earth and be able to guide the development of this Earth at any time, so that the two Earths appeared identical on the surface, with no discernible differences.
So, who could cross the vast expanse of space and know what was happening on Earth at any given time?
Even with Su Chen’s current abilities, he couldn’t contact his own people beyond the Space Channel, indicating that the distance between the two planets was immeasurable.
Suddenly, a thought crossed Su Chen’s mind.
Dream Shadow Clan!
If anyone could be responsible, it would likely be the Dream Shadow Clan.
The Dream Shadow Clan, without physical bodies, theoretically had the ability to manifest anywhere in the universe, as long as there was life summoning it. In such a scenario, the Dream Shadow Clan was a possibility.
But why would the Dream Shadow Clan engage in such actions, and what could they possibly gain from it?
The intelligence was too limited, and Su Chen couldn’t draw any conclusions, so he had to give up.
He looked at Yun Ru, awaiting her analysis.
Yun Ru furrowed her brow in thought for a moment and said, “Let’s consider this: if our Earth is real and this Earth is fake, created by someone, then why didn’t the creator come out to stop the Zerg? Why would they stand by and watch the second Earth they put so much effort into creating be easily destroyed?”
Su Chen nodded. If it were him, he wouldn’t abandon such an effort. Just thinking about it, he knew how incredibly challenging it was to create a second Earth. It could be said to be nearly unimaginable.
He had once asked Les about the extent of a Constellation-level expert’s power.
Les had said that he could easily obliterate a Small Galaxy, and given enough time, he could even destroy a large galaxy.
However, for a Constellation-level expert to create a life-bearing planet was a very difficult task that required vast knowledge and a certain amount of luck.
To create a second Earth, at the very least, it would require a Constellation-level expert, right?
“Another hypothesis is that our Earth is fake, and this Earth is real. However, this hypothesis doesn’t hold up well. I carefully examined the history of this world, and the point of convergence with Earth’s history was fifty years ago. At that time, Earth’s history was still continuing, but the history of this planet seemed to vanish into thin air, only to reappear three years ago when the Zerg arrived, marking the Apocalypse.”
“Vanish into thin air? What does that mean?”
“It means that the people here have no memories of the past fifty years. They believe they were born in the past two or three decades, but I’ve examined their bodies, and their true ages should be fifty years older. What’s even stranger is that they not only lack fifty years of memories but also don’t feel the physical effects of fifty years passing. Their physical functions match their perceived ages.”
Fifty years of time had disappeared, and yet they themselves were unaware of it, which was indeed very strange.
“There are still two other hypotheses: both Earths are fake, or both Earths are real. I believe we can rule out the latter; there can’t be two real Earths. Unless it’s a parallel space. As for the former…”
Su Chen suddenly interrupted Yun Ru, “What if, and I mean if, this Earth is from a parallel space?”
Su Chen hadn’t forgotten that he was a human from a parallel world, brought here by the System.
But the idea of traversing an entire solar system was something Su Chen found hard to fathom.
Yun Ru didn’t immediately refute his idea but replied seriously, “The existence of a parallel space cannot currently be proven, and likewise, we cannot prove that this planet comes from a parallel space. I still believe it’s artificially created. Commander, don’t forget the Space Channel behind us that connects the two planets.” (To be continued…)
