Chapter III: The Day of Judgment

"Pang, wake up, Pang, wake up!"

Pang Xuelin opened his eyes in a daze, looking at the bearded foreigner in front of him, an inexplicable memory poured into his mind, and Pang Xuelin subconsciously said: "Ge...... Grant? ”

"Thank you, Lord, Pong, that you are finally awake!"

Grant covered his chest with his right hand, then put his index and middle fingers together and pointed at the sky.

Pang Xuelin was a little strange, what kind of gesture is this, if you pray to God, shouldn't you draw a cross on your chest?

"Grant, we ...... Where are we? ”

Pang Xuelin shook his head, combed through the sudden extra memory in his mind, and said dizzily.

"We're on Judgment Day! Pang, you shouldn't be confused! You've slept for almost sixteen hours since last night, and we all thought something had happened to you. ”

Examine...... Judgment Day number?

Pang Xuelin shuddered suddenly, and the memories instilled by the system in his mind seemed to be activated instantly.

Plane: Three-Body World

Identity: Pang Xuelin, 28 years old, mathematician, cryptographer, core member of the Advent faction of the Earth Three-Body Organization, resident on Judgment Day.

Mission: Survive in this world for more than seven days and steal all information about the Three-Body Civilization from the Judgment Day computer system. (Note: At the time of entering this plane, the Judgment Day had already applied to the Panama Canal Authority and was expected to pass through the Panama Canal in four days.) )

Rewards:

1. The whole process of BSD conjecture proof.

2. A technology from this plane is randomly selected as a reward.

"it!"

Pang Xuelin subconsciously burst into a foul language in Chinese.

No wonder Grant's prayer gesture was so strange just now, the other party was a member of the Earth Three-Body Organization (ETO), and the Lord in his mouth was real, a three-body civilization from the α Centauri.

He didn't expect that for the first time he crossed, the system would arrange such a difficult task for himself.

Pang Xuelin has already read the trilogy of "The Three-Body Problem", and as half of Liu Fan, almost every detail of this novel Pang Xuelin is like a treasure.

Therefore, Pang Xuelin is very aware of the difficulty of this plot task released by the system.

In the novel "The Three-Body Problem", the steamship "Judgment Day" is also known as the Second Red Bank Base, which is the main base of the Adventist faction of the Earth Trisolaran Organization (ETO).

On board the "Judgment Day", there is a huge radio wave transmitting antenna, which can use the sun's ability to reflect and amplify the power of radio waves, and connect with the three-body civilization 4.5 light-years away.

It stores important information about the contact between the ETO Advent faction and the Three-Body Civilization, and it is also the main target of the United Earth Government's attack.

Pang Xuelin's crossing point was a few days before the United Nations Planetary Defense Council gathered global forces and prepared to launch a strike on the Judgment Day.

In four days, the 60,000-ton ship will cross the Panama Canal.

During Operation Guzheng initiated by the Planetary Defense Council (PDC), the giant ship was cut into more than 30 pieces by flying blade materials, and all the people on board died.

Once Pang Xuelin took over this task, he had to find a way to obtain the three-body civilization data stored in the central computer of the "Judgment Day" within four days, and then escape from this giant ship.

Not to mention the danger of letting him steal the materials of the Three-Body Civilization, the "Judgment Day" is currently sailing in the Atlantic Ocean in a legal capacity, and will cross the Panama Canal in four days, during which there is no chance to dock at all, how can he escape?

Pang Xuelin was a little confused.

"Pang, are you alright?"

The bearded Grant saw Pang Xuelin's unrelenting look, and said with some concern.

"Oh, I ...... I'm fine! ”

Pang Xuelin looked at Grant, and relevant information about him came to mind.

Grant, a Turkish-German professor of astrophysics at the Technical University of Munich, is one of the core members of the ETO Advent faction, just like himself.

ETO Adventists, mainly made up of adherents of species-communism led by Mike Evans.

Because of the mass extinction of species caused by modern civilization, as well as various reasons such as wars and ethnic vendettas, they have completely despaired of human nature and have an extreme hatred of human beings from the bottom of their hearts.

In the words of Mike Evans: "We don't know what extraterrestrial civilizations are like, but we know humans." ”

The goal of the Adventist is to help the Three-Body Civilization destroy human civilization, and then let the Three-Body People destroy themselves!

In Pang Xuelin's view, this is a group of neuropathies that seem normal, but are actually extremely extreme!

Much more evil than the salvation faction and the survivor faction in ETO.

Once this group of people discovers that they want to steal the communication information of the Three-Body Civilization and then escape from the "Judgment Day", what awaits him will be a certain death.

Grant said: "Pang, it's okay if you're okay, mainly when you arrived on duty today, you didn't come, and everyone didn't see you, so Evans asked me to come and have a look!" If it's okay, I'll go first, and remember to report to the bridge later. ”

"Good!"

Pang Xuelin nodded, and was relieved to see Grant disappear at the door of his cabin.

Pang Xuelin looked around, and the cabin he was in was a single room with a toilet, with an area of about ten square meters.

In the extremely compact living space of the "Judgment Day", only the upper echelons of the Advent had such an environment, and the others lived in either double or quadruple rooms.

He can be regarded as one of the few top scientists of the Advent Sect, mainly responsible for encrypted communication with the Three-Body Civilization, so he enjoys better treatment than others.

However, this difference in treatment and status is not obvious on the "Judgment Day".

For most of them, the Judgment Day is their Noah's Ark, a spiritual pillar for their hearts to reach the other side.

As long as you can enter the "Judgment Day", the hardships and tiredness of life are nothing.

……

What's next?

Pang Xuelin pinched his chin and thought to himself.

First of all, don't worry about identity exposure for the time being, "Judgment Day", all the elites of the ETO advent faction are gathered, and all those who can enter the "Judgment Day" have experienced the repeated review of Zhizi (intelligent microscopic particles, detectors launched to the earth in the early stage of the three-body civilization, used to interfere with human particle collision experiments, lock the earth's basic scientific research, and also used to obtain intelligence, in front of Zhizi, human beings have no secrets) Repeated review, there is no need to worry about being mixed in by spies.

What's more, he is responsible for the encrypted communication between the Adventist faction and the Three-Body Civilization, and is one of the few high-level Adventists who have the permission to view the information of the Three-Body Civilization.

Therefore, Yin Wens should have 100% trust in himself.

The biggest problem now is not from inside the Judgment Day, but from the upcoming Panama Canal trip.

According to the plot of the novel, the Planetary Defense Council has decided to take action against the Judgment Day.

However, their main goal is not to capture the members of the Adventist faction, but to obtain the information on the Three-Body Civilization stored in the "Judgment Day" computer center.

In order to prevent the advent faction from destroying the data in the computer during the operation, the human side carefully planned the "Guzheng operation".

That is, two pillars were erected on both sides of the Gaillard waterway of the Panama Canal, and many flying blades of material were pulled parallel between the pillars every half a meter, and this nanomaterial was extremely strong, but it was only one-tenth of the thickness of a human hair, and it was not visible to the naked eye at all.

As the "Judgment Day" passes, it can be cut silently.

Due to the limited number of flying blade materials, they can only be arranged at intervals of 0.5 meters, so in order to prevent people from lying on the bed and avoiding the cut during the cut, the human side even sets the action time specifically during the day, and most people are standing or sitting on the boat.

It's almost an existential deathgame.

Pang Xuelin frowned, if the "Judgment Day" was allowed to enter the Panama Canal, it would be almost impossible to survive the Guzheng operation.

There are still four days left before the "Judgment Day" crosses the Panama Canal.

You have to act as soon as possible.

After pondering for a moment, Pang Xuelin walked out of his cabin and, according to the memory in his mind, went to the bridge.

As soon as he walked into the bridge, Pang Xuelin saw a tall man in his fifties, with blond hair and blue eyes, standing on the bridge, observing the direction of the "Judgment Day".

This is the first time Pang Xuelin has met Yin Wensi!

Mike Evans, founder and believer of species communism, founder of the Three-Body Organization on Earth.

He could plant trees in China's northwest for three years in order to save some kind of endangered bird.

He can live on a fishing boat for half a year in order to investigate some endangered marine fish.

After receiving a $4.5 billion inheritance from his oil tycoon, he invested most of it in saving the planet's endangered species, only to find that it was a drop in the bucket.

As a result, he completely despaired of humanity.

When he learned about the existence of the three-body civilization from Ye Wenjie, his goal changed from saving endangered species to completely eradicating human civilization.

He poured all his money into establishing a second Red Bank base on the "Judgment Day".

He promoted the development of the three-body movement of the earth, and alienated a powerful rebel force within the human race.

If Ye Wenjie is the spiritual leader of the Earth Three-Body Organization, then Evans is the actual controller of the Earth Three-Body Organization and the spiritual leader of the Advent faction.

"Pang, you're here, I heard you're not doing well, are you okay now?"

Pang Xuelin shook his head and said, "It's okay, it's just a little tired, so I slept a little longer." ”

Evans smiled and said, "Pang, you are one of the few true geniuses within our Advent Sect, you should take care of your health before the Lord comes, after all, our battle has just begun!" ”

Evans has gentle eyes and speaks slowly, so that no one can see that this person has the great ideal of destroying human civilization.

Pang Xuelin pondered for a moment and said, "Evans, can you come out for a while?" I have something I want to talk to you about. ”

Evans was slightly stunned: "What's the matter?" ”

Pang Xuelin looked at the sailors at the helm on the bridge, as well as the captain, first mate and others, but did not speak.

Evans understood what he meant, and said, "Okay, then let's talk on deck!" ”

Walking out of the bridge, a violent sea breeze blew in, blowing the collars of the two of them to a grin.

The afternoon sun shone on my body, and I didn't feel much of a scorching sensation.

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Evans smiled at Pang Xuelin, a young mathematician who had personally introduced him to ETO eight years ago.

After several years of investigation, the young man's strong hatred for human civilization and high loyalty to the organization made him one of the core scientists on the "Judgment Day" and Evans's most trusted subordinate.
