The fire moon in the sky does not have any signs of dimming, it gradually moves to the other end of the horizon, the light gradually decreases, it sinks a little bit, it does not have clouds and sunshine like the original moon, it does not reflect the light of the stars, it will shine itself, so at any time this fire moon will be a full moon.

A bright red and burning full moon.

The city began to change its state, a black shadow spread from a distance, crawled over the buildings, through the city, it passed under Mark's feet, and Mark saw that it was not a black shadow, but the entire city floor had changed, from a mirror material that reflected light, to a black matte material that absorbed light energy. Mark couldn't see how it was transformed, he didn't even feel anything under his feet, just brushed it, and the surrounding environment changed, Mark asked Sun Tan about the specific principle, and the other party said a lot of professional terms, and Mark gave up after listening to the beginning.

After playing with Sun Tan for a while, talking to familiar old friends made Mark feel much better, he gradually adapted to this body, and he could walk on his own without auxiliary tools, and he also knew a lot about the new rules of this world, not to mention familiarity, but at least returning to the real world would not be regarded as a primitive person.

"To put it simply, I'm your hibernation guardian now, and I'll handle most of your decisions on my behalf, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on this matter."

Sun Tan and Mark sat on the garden platform of a high-rise building, an artificial waterfall fell beside them, splashing a large mist of water wet Mark's clothes, this building is an 800-story super building, it was once the financial building of the East Asia region, because of the red and black background is also called the vampire building, Mark does not know that there is no pun in it.

People don't feel hungry in the virtual space, but Sun Tan still introduced the diet module, got Mark a glass of wine, a roast duck, and a few side dishes, and the two sat on the highest building in the city, drinking while watching the fire moon fall.

The wine tastes no different from the real thing, but no matter how you drink it, you won't get drunk, and the wine will lose three points of taste.

Mark heroically threw a can off the high platform, watching it fall high into the air along the water of the waterfall, of course it will not fall all the way to the "ground", everything disappears after leaving Mark's field of vision, the whole world looks big, but the details only exist within his perceptual range, and the places he can't see are blurred, only some blank frames, which are similar to the old times of online games, which can save computing to the greatest extent, otherwise no matter how powerful the processor is, it is impossible to restore the complete real world.

"What thoughts?" Mark asked.

"Do you want to recover now? Or, are you willing to resuscitate? I respect your opinion. Sun Tan said: "As you can see, the current virtual reality technology is already very good, in fact, there are a few hibernators who are reluctant to wake up after listening to the things in reality, some people choose to continue to sleep, go to a more distant, better future, and some simply live here." ”

"In this virtual space?" Mark felt something incredible.

"Yes, there is everything here, as long as you want, you are a god in this space, this is the privilege of hibernators, and the virtual reality technology that connects the brain is still strictly controlled by ordinary people, preventing too many people from indulging in it and hindering the progress of the real world."

"It's tempting, but no matter how comfortable it is, it's a fake place after all...... Now that the war has subsided and my body is back to normal, there's no reason why I shouldn't go back. Mark didn't hesitate to make his choice.

"I knew you would say that."

"By the way, what is the good news you just said, you have reported sorrow and good news all the way, and you have poured me wine, you really want to see me cry?"

"It's quite a lot, but I think you probably need to hear this the most, we have made great progress in exploring the center of the earth, and now we have detected the civilization egg in the center of the earth, and now we are preparing to take it out, if you recover now, I guess you can catch up with it and see it come out, this is good news, right?" Sun Tan shook the wine glass in his hand and said.

"What!" Mark was really excited to jump, he fell off the edge of the high platform, and after a few minutes was pulled back to his side by Sun Tan's repositioning, Mark trembled all over, I don't know if he was excited, or if he was scared from just falling off the high platform.

"After so many years of hard work, we are finally about to see the results...... I'm ashamed to say that you asked me to lead the research team of the light-speed spacecraft, and I gathered the most outstanding talents at that time, but there was no theoretical breakthrough, and we could only strengthen the fields that are now known, such as the traditional engine, the fuel engine, which has a lot of juice in the orange, and in the end we were all surprised, and we succeeded in increasing the speed of the traditional spaceship by a full five times. Speaking of which, Mark found that there was an imperceptible haze on Sun Tan's face, as if he was feeling guilty about something, Mark easily guessed his thoughts, patted him on the shoulder and comforted: That's not your fault.

"The gun is innocent, the guilty person is the one who uses the gun, you don't want such a result to happen......" Mark actually noticed it just now, when talking about the Earth-Moon War, Sun Tan's mood was obviously much lower.

He must have put the blame on himself, the engine he led the development of finally buried so many people's lives, and it was not easy for anyone to have a good time, Mark guessed correctly at all, since the outbreak of the Earth-Moon War, this stone has been pressing on Sun Tan's heart, and it is difficult to resolve.

Sun Tan didn't say anything more, just lowered his head and left, he walked to the waterfall of the platform, slowly disappeared in the loud sound of water, and after waiting for less than a minute, suddenly there was a great change in Mark's eyes.

The towering vampire edifice collapsed rapidly, and so did the pitch-black earth below, everything around him was rapidly collapsing, disintegrating, and turning into the smallest particles, Mark felt a sensation like an electric shock spread throughout his body, from his head to his feet, he twitched violently, unable to react, and the whole person collapsed to the ground, sinking into the crack of the earth with the collapsed world.

"Whew! Whew......" Mark opened his eyes again under the strong stimulus, and the scene in front of him was almost the same as when he first woke up, with white walls, dazzling white lights, and Dale standing on the side......

What was different was that Mark saw a different Sun Tan, who was standing next to Dale, with gray hair and a wrinkled face.
