Chapter 339: Chapter 268: How to End Analog Horror_2

...

After listening to Fei Ye’s words, Orell was silent for a moment before letting out a somewhat disappointed sigh, "After hearing so much from you, is this the far-fetched conclusion you’ve reached? Parallel universes? That is just a hypothesis and not at all credible. And even if it’s Blue Star’s parallel universe, what then?"

Orell’s expression became stern as he said in a sharp tone, "What I want to ask is, how do you know when Analog Horror comes? Yet you’ve talked about so many other things... well, if you don’t want to say, I can’t force you..."

"...Is that so?" Fei Ye also sighed with a hint of disappointment, "Well, then I’ll tell you."

After saying this, Fei Ye slid her fingers across the screen of her phone, displaying one after another photo of the starry sky.

She explained, "These are photos of the starry skies taken on Blue Star, each one captured on the eve of Analog Horror’s arrival. Have you noticed anything peculiar about them?"

...

After careful observation, Sheraya finally discovered the secret, "Does the position of the stars change whenever Analog Horror is about to come?"

"To be precise, the positions of these stars change after each instance ends," Fei Ye explained. "Once these stars move to a certain position, Analog Horror will come again. But don’t forget, the universe is vast, and a light year is merely a basic unit. For them to move so much in such a short time, their speed has already far exceeded that of light.

Moreover, to allow us, separated by who knows how many light years, to observe them indicates that these movements were prearranged... Each star is controlled so precisely, maybe this was something planned out billions or even more years ago."

"Billions of years ago?" Sheraya furrowed her brows, "Analog Horror... Is it an existence that ancient?"

"And speeds exceeding that of light? If this is the work of Analog Horror... then what exactly are we facing?" Orell said, before falling into silence.

Fei Ye continued, "I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but every instance of Analog Horror almost always has a time limit. Either you must pass a certain number of days to meet the conditions for clearing, or the time is directly indicated in the conditions. The reason for this, perhaps, is to coincide with the movements of those stars? After all, these stars began moving billions of years ago, if not longer; it’s just that we are only observing them now due to the finite speed of light."

..."Hm?" Just then, Xiao Yi, who had finished eating, came over to glance at the photos of the starry sky and said, "Hiss... these stars, gathered together, kind of look like they’re forming shapes like characters, don’t they?"

"What...!?"

Upon hearing this, both Sheraya and Orell were startled and quickly looked at the photos!

Indeed! The stars that had changed positions gathered in one area and, when connected, indeed resembled some kind of characters!

"Xiao Yi, you’ve noticed it too," Fei Ye nodded, "Indeed, it was by noticing this that I was able to confirm the timing of Analog Horror’s arrival. However, what exactly are those characters? It’s still unclear... We need to clear more instances of Analog Horror, allow the stars to move more, and then we might understand what those characters are.

Perhaps... they could be some message that Analog Horror wants to convey to us, or they might even relate to the ultimate secret of Analog Horror."

..."Eh?" Xiao Yi was stunned; he had just made a casual remark, but why did everyone take it so seriously?

Actually, even Xiao Yi himself didn’t believe what he had casually suggested; to him, constellations and such were quite amusing.

Especially Aries, which was even more absurd.

Not to mention connecting stars to form characters; after all, there were so many stars, one could connect them any which way.

However, the others believed it completely.

Taking a deep breath, Orell then looked at Fei Ye, bowed his head, and apologized:

"I’m sorry, Miss Fei Ye, I thought you wouldn’t divulge such vital information. After all, in my view, you are a person from the Dragon Country in the Lighthouse, one who has betrayed their own Country, like those who have only self-interest in their eyes, with no patriotic spirit, certainly would not reveal it so easily... My attitude was too harsh just now, and for that, I am truly sorry."

"Ah... no worries, no worries." Fei Ye immediately showed an expression of finding the matter bothersome, "I don’t mind such things."

"Anyhow, the pattern of Analog Horror’s arrival should now be known to the whole world; this is undoubtedly a huge help to everyone. Thank you."

Orell said no more and left.

"So... let’s get back to the topic we were on earlier," Fei Ye said to Xiao Yi and Sheraya, "Since it’s been brought up, I might as well tell you everything. It’s a pity that guy isn’t interested, but it doesn’t matter; the whole world is watching us now, so I might as well tell everyone."

"The topic from earlier? Do you mean parallel universes?" Sheraya frowned immediately.

"Parallel universes?" Xiao Yi was taken aback, "Were you talking about parallel universes just now? Why would that come up?"

"Because... it might be related to ending Analog Horror," Fei Ye’s expression became serious. "Our Blue Star’s technology can’t observe the true form of Analog Horror, and the instance of Analog Horror is the only information we can collect about it. So, we have to gather every clue, no matter how insignificant, and make bold deductions... I don’t want to live under the shadow of Analog Horror forever, so, I think it’s necessary."

"A way to end... Analog Horror?" Xiao Yi immediately showed an expression of interest. "That’s quite intriguing. What exactly is the situation?"

Sheraya didn’t really take it seriously, feeling it was a bit far-fetched, but seeing Xiao Yi so interested, he didn’t say anything.

Besides, if it really was related to ending Analog Horror, there was no harm in listening.

"Sigh... Finally, I can talk about it. I wanted to mention this earlier, but those from the Old Lighthouse are too untrustworthy. They would even conceal information intentionally, so that’s why I didn’t speak out. It was killing me..."

After complaining for a moment, Fei Ye continued, "In fact, it’s not only because of the stars in the sky; there are many other reasons that led me to this thought."

"What other reasons?" Xiao Yi asked.

"Let me think..." Fei Ye reminisced for a while. "For example, have you noticed? Those people we met in the instance, when talking to them about our Blue Star’s situation, mentioning our Country, Dragon Country, Aolan, Lighthouse, and other Countries, they all seemed unaware of them."

"Indeed," Sheraya thought about it and then nodded his head.

"Ah, now that you mention it, that does ring a bell," Xiao Yi also remembered the matter, "And, I’ve never asked those people I met which Country they were from."

Coincidentally, a figure passed by the entrance to the restaurant. Xiao Yi quickly called out to him.

"Hey! Mr. Ke!"

"Hmm?" Mr. Ke turned his head towards them, "I am a bit busy right now, let’s talk later."

"I just have one question." Xiao Yi asked, "Mr. Ke, which Country are you from?"

"Which Country am I from? Hmm... that’s a bit difficult to answer."

Mr. Ke then put on a thoughtful expression, pondered for a while, seemed to come up with something, chuckled and said to them:

"I did sign a confidentiality agreement, so it’s not good to reveal too much, but you see, my features, they look Asian, right? That should suffice, right? I’ll be going now..."

With that, Mr. Ke hurried away.

"Asian?" Xiao Yi looked puzzled, "Which continent is Asia?"

"I don’t know," Sheraya also shook his head, "At least, it’s not one of the seven continents of Blue Star we know."
