Pang Xuelin came out of the United Nations General Assembly Hall, Kanter followed him closely, surrounded by guards and security personnel.

Pang Xuelin could feel that after being elected as the wall-facing person, everyone, including Kante, looked at him with a change in their eyes.

It was a look of hope and reverence.

Pang Xuelin could feel the heavy responsibility behind these eyes, which was enough to overwhelm people.

"Professor Pang, where do you want to go now?"

Kanter asked.

"Can I go anywhere?"

"Of course, you can do anything as long as the resources you mobilize are within the scope of what the Facers Act allows."

"Then go to the meditation room, I want to go there!"

As long as you have read the original work of "The Three-Body Problem", you should have a deep impression of the meditation room in the United Nations building.

Pang Xuelin's current mentality is more like visiting a famous scenic spot.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

Surrounded by everyone, Pang Xuelin walked through the visitor hall and came to the west side of the United Nations Building, where he saw Luo Ji coming out of the meditation room, and Dashi followed him closely.

Pang Xuelin smiled: "Dr. Luo Ji, we meet again." ”

Luo Ji looked much more relaxed than before, and said with a smile: "Professor Pang, I just explained to Ms. Say that I have decided to give up my identity as a wall-facer, give up all the powers I have been granted, and I will not assume any responsibilities related to wall-facers, and Ms. Say agreed......"

"Oh......"

Pang Xuelin looked at Luo Ji with a smile and did not answer.

Luo Ji faintly felt that something was wrong, and asked suspiciously: "Professor Pang, this is ...... Any questions? ”

"No, no problem! Dr. Luo Ji. ”

Pang Xuelin smiled, turned his gaze to Da Shi and said, "Da Shi, protect Dr. Luo Ji well!" ”

"Brother Pang, I ......"

Dashi shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Pang Xuelin smiled, stepped forward and patted Da Shi's shoulder, ignored them anymore, and went straight into the meditation room.

Luo Ji looked at Pang Xuelin's back curiously and said, "Great History, do you know Professor Pang?" ”

Da Shi said: "Acquaintance, we are old friends." ”

Luo Ji said: "How do I feel that Professor Pang looks at me a little strangely. ”

"Maybe it's just your delusion...... Dashi coughed dryly and said, "Dr. Luo Ji, what are you going to do next?" ”

Luo Ji said: "I ...... Let's go out and have a look first, I finally came to New York, of course, to play for a few days, you don't have to follow me, I'm not a wall-facing person anymore. ”

This was said to the guards around him.

Dashi nodded and said, "We obey your orders. ”

As he spoke, Dashi gestured a look, and the guards around him slowly dispersed.

Luo Ji breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked out of the United Nations building.

Dashi and they quickly followed.

……

Pang Xuelin walked into the meditation room.

It is a V-shaped room, wide at the entrance, narrow on the innermost side, with the surrounding walls painted beige, and a protruding panel at the narrow end, covered with frescoes by the Swedish artist Bo Besko.

The 9 x 6.5-foot mural is composed of blue, white, gray, and yellow geometry, with pale and pure colors overlapping each other into darker tones.

In the center of the room is a large block of high-purity pig iron ore dating back millions of years, a symbol of eternity and strength.

At this time, UN Secretary-General Say was standing in front of the iron ore, quietly looking at the mural in front of him.

"Ms. Say."

Say turned his head and smiled, "Professor Pang, you're here." ”

Pang Xuelin stepped forward, came to the side by side of Say, and said, "I just met Dr. Luo Ji at the door, and he told me that he gave up his identity as a wall-facer...... He didn't seem to realize the meaning behind this identity. ”

Say laughed, "He'll understand soon." ”

Pang Xuelin nodded and said, "Why did you choose him?" ”

Say said: "There is intelligence that he is the only human on Earth who has personally given the assassination order by the Trisolararan, and in addition, he and Ye Wenjie's daughter Yang Dong used to be high school classmates. ”

"I see!"

Pang Xuelin smiled, although he had already known the inside story, but at this time, watching this plot from a third-party perspective still gave him a sense of freshness.

At this time, Say said, "Professor Pang, to be honest, I envy you a little. ”

"Why do you say that?" Pang Xuelin was slightly stunned, "I think very few people are willing to take on this most important responsibility in human history, although the position of the person facing the wall is indeed very powerful." ”

Say laughed, "At the very least, you can fight for our civilization until the last moment, and for those of us, we may be doomed to spend our lives in nothing." ”

Pang Xuelin said: "This is not a blessing. ”

Say smiled and said, "In the name of the United Nations, I am going to auction off all the stars around the solar system within a hundred light years, and the proceeds will be used to help those basic scientific research." ”

Pang Xuelin's face showed a look of surprise: "Star Project?!" ”

Say was slightly stunned, his eyes lit up, and he said, "This name is good, I was still thinking about the name of this plan just now, the Star Project, this is it!" ”

Pang Xuelin couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't expect that he was speechless for a while, and he also gave a name to the star project.

The Stars Project is a plan in the third part of the Three-Body Problem "Death Eternal", initiated by Say.

Its role in promoting basic science is almost minimal, but this plan closely links the fate of the male and female protagonists of the third part, and even has a very great impact on the fate of the entire human race later.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, and then a United Nations staff member broke into the meditation room in some panic and said, "Ms. Say, Luo Ji has been assassinated!" ”

"Assassination?!"

A look of surprise appeared on Say's face, and then she turned her head to Pang Xuelin and said, "Professor Pang, I'll miss you first." ”

"There you go......"

Pang Xuelin nodded at Say, then turned to Kanter, who was standing beside him, and said, "Mr. Kanter, let everyone else go out too, I want to stay alone in the meditation room for a while." ”

"Okay, Professor Pang!"

Soon, the meditation room fell silent.

Pang Xuelin closed his eyes, put one hand on the iron ore, felt the coolness coming from the iron ore, and his heart gradually calmed down.

So far, everything has gone well, he has become the wall-facer, Luo Ji has also been pulled in, and has become a thorn in the side of the Trisolarans and ETO.

But in terms of how to find a way to shield Zhizi, Pang Xuelin still has no clue.

Pang Xuelin set a time for himself to be fifty years, if he didn't find a way to shield Zhizi within fifty years, then he would directly flip the table and have a showdown with the Trisolara.

Another thing that Pang Xuelin needs to consider is the great trough of human civilization.

According to the description, the great trough began three decades later, when the political atmosphere became more tense than ever due to the acceleration of the wartime transformation of the world economy, the decline in living standards, and the acceleration of the wartime transformation of the world economy.

In addition, in order to develop the space military industry, human beings no longer consider environmental protection issues at all, and even environmental protection behaviors are equated with ETO people.

Later, the space military industry led to the rapid development of highly polluting heavy industry, the greenhouse effect, abnormal climate, and desertification.

This was followed by a major reduction in global food production and a great famine.

Human civilization has fallen into an unprecedented state of regression, and in just 50 years, the world's population has decreased from 8.3 billion to 2 billion.

It was only then that mankind woke up from the sense of crisis brought about by the three-body civilization.

A loud slogan began to resound around the world.

Give civilization to the years, not to civilization to the years.

All governments have suspended their space strategic plans to focus on improving people's livelihoods.

With breakthroughs in genetic engineering and nuclear fusion technology, it is possible to concentrate on large-scale production of food.

Mankind ended the days of relying on the sky for food, and in just over twenty years, life returned to the level of the golden age.

Due to the emancipation of the mind, human technology began to develop rapidly, and those technical obstacles in the space strategic plan before the great trough were broken through one after another, and by the year 205 of the crisis era, mankind had built a powerful space fleet, which could reach 10 percent of the speed of light at the earliest, and human self-confidence had also risen to an unprecedented height.

But in the next apocalyptic battle to meet the three-body probe "Water Drop", humanity was once again beaten back to the prototype.

It is impossible to make a breakthrough in basic science, and no matter how sharp the broadsword and spear are, it is far from being the opponent of machine guns and cannons.

Just when human beings were in despair, Luo Ji, who came to the future through hibernation, stood up and used the law of the dark forest to launch a Jedi counterattack, preventing the invasion of the three-body civilization on the earth, making the human race and the three-body civilization enter a state of confrontation, and as a result, the earth entered the era of deterrence from the era of crisis.

This is the main plot of the second "Dark Forest" of the Three-Body Problem.

This great trough, which lasted for half a century, has had a very significant impact on the future politics, economy, and culture of human civilization.

Later, including the feminization of aesthetics, Cheng Xin's election as a sword bearer, replacing Luo Ji, and even later because of the fear of the dark forest strike, the development of light-speed spaceships was banned, etc., in fact, they were all inseparable from the impact of the big trough.

What has been removed from this great trough is the backbone of the progress of human civilization in later generations.

"The big trough must not happen!"

Pang Xuelin opened his eyes and stared at the square composed of complex geometric figures in front of him, and said secretly in his heart.

Then he turned and walked out of the meditation room.

"Professor Pang!"

N'Golo Kante was the first to greet him.

"Is Dr. Luo Ji okay?" Pang Xuelin asked.

"It's okay, Dr. Luo Ji is wearing body armor, but he was slightly injured."

"What are the other wall-facers doing?"

"Taylor and Mr. Rediaz are forming their own staff, and Mr. Hines is preparing to convene a global conference of brain science experts."

Pang Xuelin nodded and said, "Mr. Kanter, you go and inform them, just say that tomorrow night, I will invite them to a private dinner at the Hilton Hotel where I am staying." ”

Kanter was slightly stunned and said, "Is Dr. Luo Ji also invited?" ”

"Of course, I think there needs to be communication between a few of us who face the wall, and by tomorrow, Luo Ji should understand the mission he has undertaken."

"Okay, I'll go down and arrange it right away."

……

One is immersed in

Three-Body Game World.

Qin Shi Huang walked out of the pyramid with a long sword and came to a high slope.

Under the setting sun, several figures appeared on the dim skyline in the distance.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, several figures appeared in front of Qin Shi Huang's eyes one after another, and they were the same people who appeared in the last meeting, King Wen of Zhou, Newton, von Neumann, Aristotle, Mozi, Confucius, and Einstein......

Qin Shi Huang's gaze swept over everyone's faces and said, "The wall-facing plan has begun, and all five wall-facing people have been confirmed, I believe you have all received the news." ”

Everyone nodded.

Qin Shi Huang said: "The threat of the wall-facing plan, I believe everyone understands that the Lord needs our help, and according to the resolution of the last meeting, we need to start the wall-breaking plan immediately!" ”

Qin Shi Huang paused, and then said: "For each wall-facing person, we will designate a wall-breaker. Like the Wall-Facers, the Wall-Breakers will have the right to call upon all the resources within the organization, but your greatest resource is the Tomoko, who completely expose the Wall-Facers' every move to you, and the only thing that becomes a secret is their minds. The task of the wall breakers is to decipher their true strategic intentions as soon as possible by analyzing the open and secret actions of each wall-facing person with the assistance of Tomoko. Next, the leadership will appoint the wall breaker. ”

Qin Shi Huang stretched out his long sword and put it on von Neumann's shoulder in the manner of canonizing knights: "You, Wall Breaker No. 1, Frederick Taylor's Wall Breaker. ”

Von Neumann knelt down on one leg and put his left hand on his right shoulder and saluted: "Yes, accept the mission!" ”

Qin Shi Huang put his long sword on Mozi's shoulder: "You, the second wall-breaker, the wall-breaker of Manuel Reddiaz." ”

Mozi didn't kneel, stood more straight, and nodded haughtily: "I will be the first to break the wall." ”

The long sword rested on Aristotle's shoulder again: "You, wall-breaker number three, wall-breaker of Bill Sheens." ”

Aristotle did not kneel down, shook his robe, and said thoughtfully: "Yes, his wall-breaker can only be me." ”

"Okay, you all go down and prepare, you are all the elite of the elite, and for the rest of your life, you may have to entangle with these wall-facing people until the final battle!"

"What about Luo Ji and that traitor?"

Someone asked.

Within the ETO, no one wants to call Pang Xuelin by his name, only a traitor.

"Luo Ji......" Qin Shi Huang fell silent, "Luo Ji's wall-breaker is himself, and he needs to find out where his threat to the Lord lies. ”

"Didn't the Lord tell us where his threat came from?"

Someone else asked.

Qin Shi Huang shook his head and said: "No, only Evans knows, maybe Ye Wenjie also knows, after their death, the Lord also began to try to hide the secret." ”

The scene fell silent again.

Someone laughed and said, "That's a good thing!" When the day comes when the Lord learns to hide his mind like humans, I don't think there is any point in our continued existence. ”

"That's right!"

The crowd couldn't help but laugh.

For them, their own life and death are not important, whether they can exterminate human beings is the most important thing!

"And what about the traitor?"

"The traitor?" Qin Shi Huang grinned, showed a cruel smile and said, "His wall-breaker is me, I will let him know what kind of fate he will face if he betrays the Lord!" ”
