Scavengers of the Folding Universe
Science Fiction折叠宇宙的拾荒者
Songhua River Fish Stew
The story takes place in Sector Zero in the Twilight Era, which is filled with abandoned battleships and twisted gravity fields. The protagonist Zhou Yuan walks through the ruins as usual, looking for usable data fragments. Near an ancient entrance called the "Rust Gate", he discovered an abnormal space-time fluctuation - it was not ordinary garbage, but a fragment of code that was forcibly deleted by the system and emitted a strange red light. Zhou Yuan knew that this went against the underlying logic of the universe, but he also knew that this might be the only opportunity to break the [closed loop of increased entropy]. He carefully took out the [Key] he carried with him - an ancient device that can reversely modify local codes. As the key was activated, the surrounding chaotic space folds began to tremble, and the originally dead void was instantly torn apart, revealing the data abyss behind it that did not belong to this dimension. Just when Zhou Yuan was about to explore further, a group of white geometric drones from the [Entropy Increase Correction Bureau] appeared like ghosts. They had no emotions, only absolute execution programs. Zhou Yuan did not choose to escape, but used the key in his hand to forcibly distort the gravity field and lead the drone group into high-dimensional turbulence. Although this battle is small, it marks that he is no longer a passive scavenger, but has become the "variable" that makes the system uneasy.
