The vast universe is magical and infinite, and the world outside the universe is even more unfathomable.

Maybe there is a world like the one now.

However, this is not hypothetical, but true. I don't know if it's a blessing or a bad luck.

A thousand years ago, another Earth in the deep space of the universe, with the development of the times, unsurprisingly created artificial intelligence. Eventually, AI spirals out of control, with irreparable consequences.

However, in the vast flow of history, this is only a rain and clouds.

After a thousand years of self-development, artificial intelligence technology has advanced by leaps and bounds after the elimination of human beings, and it has fought countless battles in the universe, and has become a hegemonic opponent and feared by other alien civilizations. Footprints are also distributed all over the universe.

However, after an accidental discovery, they still discovered the earth where humans now live.

So, they came to Earth.

A thousand years later, humanity's feud with artificial intelligence has returned. Will the bitter fruit of this human race be retributed to another group of human beings?

Time will tell.

In the calm of space, the light of the thrusters propelled the spaceship to sail.

Hundreds of warships crossed by, carved wormholes, entered the solar system, and reigned on Earth.

One of the personnel said from the operating platform: "Captain, there are two hours to reach Earth. ”

"Hmm." The captain said calmly.

The captain and the staff at the console looked at the blue planet through the window, and the captain was moved and said, "I miss it so much." ”

"This blue crystal, a thousand years later, is still so beautiful."

Two hours later......

Arrive above the Earth and look down on the planet.

The captain said, "Go into stealth." ”

"Yes! Go into stealth and start dying! ”

A group of spaceships broke into the atmosphere and silently came to Earth.

And just like that, two years later......

After two years of hibernation, no one has noticed.

They're finally getting moving.

Why hibernate for two years? They seem to come prepared.

The smell of a conspiracy quietly spreads in the air......

When foreign civilizations have quietly crept into our earth, and at this time, our children are still worried about life.

Once again, drowning himself in thoughts, letting the loneliness of the whole world surround him.

It's autumn again, the autumn wind mottled the leaves, but the purity of the fallen leaves could not hide his thoughts, who made him wait, year after year......

Many years later, he will be moved by this moment.

Spring is coming to autumn, the last day of the holiday is coming to an end, and I vaguely remember a school season when I was young......

The sky gradually darkened, and the gray sky was covered with black colors, like a painter painting the sky black with a paintbrush.

On the snow-white wall illuminated by the lights, the clock walked diligently for ten years, not more than a minute, no less than a second, and the ticking sound seemed to rush everything in the world.

When the picture gradually cuts from the wall to the balcony, it can be seen that on the balcony, a young man is standing looking up.

From time to time, the evening breeze ruffled his hair, and his eyes stared blankly at the sky. The shining stars are like the code to open the door of the universe, mysterious and colorful.

This young man who looks up at the night sky and is obsessed with the stars, his name is Tong Xiaolai.

Looking at the vast world, loneliness inevitably gets closer and closer, and the empty night is just like his heart at the moment, empty and chaotic.

Life is lonely, life is restless, and the two form a strong contrast that is constantly entangled in Tong Xiaolai's body.

Tong Xiaolai, who has entered adolescence, has an uneasy restlessness in his heart that drives him.

It makes him like a trapped beast that is confused and trying to break out of its cage, struggling and searching.

Look at your daily life, empty, indifferent, boring, repeating boring days every day, sometimes like a fool who can't do the simplest things.

He has no grievances about life, but he also has nothing to celebrate.

After being depressed for so long, he finally couldn't help but shout to Tianfa: "This is really not the result I want!" ”

Today, at the age of eighteen, he doesn't know what he wants.

Indeed, for the young and frivolous Tong Xiaolai, the dull life and boring schoolwork, as well as the restlessness brought about by adolescence, are destroying his last patience little by little, making everything around him seem so unnatural.

The world is so big, but it can't accommodate his restless heart. The three words "good student" are too far away from him, and he has been provoked everywhere by his classmates, teachers, and dean of teaching at school.

He skips school, skips class, is late, and fights are commonplace, and many teachers hate him so much that they hate him.

That's right, he is the thorn in the eyes of his teachers and classmates, he is like a spike, he can't be erased anywhere, and he stabs people everywhere.

Because of the fact that he has done a lot of evil, his "prominent" deeds have already reached the ears of the school, and the principal stomped his feet, and the entire teaching building trembled.

In order to calm things for the time being, he has also restrained a lot recently, but as the days go by, there is nowhere to put the restlessness in his heart.

On the balcony, the evening breeze blew on him, blowing his sorrow and his confusion.

Tong Xiaolai propped his head, looked out the window and sighed again and again: "Alas, alas, alas, the student days are really difficult, come and save us from the end of the world!" ”

In other words, the "people" who were secretly observing thought that this was really incredible, and said: "This is the first time for me to make this kind of different request, or else I will fulfill them?" ”

"No, no, no, don't bother, we have more important things." The captain said, "There are only a few people like this who are contrary to life. ”

"However, I really want to help him fulfill this wish." Team member said.

"Destroy them, what are we doing here? A random missile is enough, but we get nothing. For us, the past is over, what we want is results, what we want is the future. The captain said.

"Also, HQ doesn't want us to destroy them." Team member said.

"Remember, we're going to replace one-third of the world's humanity and live with them for a long time, you know? We have been observing them for two years, and now the time is ripe and the task has already begun. ”

"Understood."

"Keep an eye on the mission." Captain reminds.

"Yes!" The team listened to orders.

The night was long, the evening breeze was accompanied, and when Tong Xiaolai's shouts calmed down, everything seemed to be the same.

"Kala!"

The window opens.

At this time, the mother who came out of the kitchen shouted to Tong Xiaolai: "Tong Xiaolai, what are you doing, what are you yelling about?" ”

Tong Xiaolai turned around and replied: "You care about me, it's just that it's okay to shout." Aren't you cooking in the kitchen? What are you doing out there? ”

Who knows, his mother took out a soy sauce bottle from behind her, put it in front of him, and said hurriedly: "I see that you are really idle, there is no soy sauce at home, go and get soy sauce and come back, you still need to use it for cooking." ”

Tong Xiaolai was unhappy: "Can you forget to cook every day?" What if you forget to pick up a gun and fight the enemy on the battlefield another day? ”

"Why do you want to hit soy sauce so much nonsense? Isn't the dish you eat the most? Are you going or not? The mother threatened.

"Just go." For tonight's dinner, Tong Xiaolai had to compromise.

Before leaving, my mother asked, "Oh, by the way, is your dad back?" ”

"Hmm...... He called just now and said that the institute was busy and might come back later, so let's have an early meal, and said that it was not too peaceful outside recently, be careful, and then hang up. ”

"What? Be careful? Not too peaceful? What are these words? Mother Danjue wondered, "I don't usually see him so busy, what's going on in the last few days?" Coming back so late every day? ”

Tong Xiaolai shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, I said that there was any emergency." Looks like something has happened in the research institute recently. ”

"Okay, okay, I know, you go and go back quickly."

Tong Xiaolai reluctantly walked through the living room, changed into shoes, grabbed the door, rushed downstairs, and left.

There was a bang, and Tong Xiaolai closed the door before leaving.

The mother couldn't help complaining: "How many times have you said it, you can't close the door lightly?" ”

It is said that Tong Xiaolai was ordered to be in danger, and went downstairs with a cigarette, and it depends on him whether he can eat soy sauce tonight.

After a while, Tong Xiaolai ran to the other side of the road, humming a song and playing soy sauce.

There are two rows of large trees on the road in front of the house, and there are bushes under them, and there are many fallen leaves lying on the bushes.

Tong Xiaolai didn't know what these trees were called, he only knew that these trees were old for a long time, before he was sensible, and they were green all year round.

Having grown up here, this path has become a memory over time.

A day passed, and the sun had already sunk over the mountain, and the black and white replacement was officially completed.

It was dark and darkness had invaded the land, but fortunately there were bright lights in all corners of the city to fight the darkness.

Tong Xiaolai was not in a hurry, but walked unhurriedly. The night was good, and he was a little emotional.

On the road, the yellowed lights lit up the streets, and the golden light sprinkled on his body, as if he was clothed in a golden coat.

Occasionally paused and looked at the end, his blurry eyes glowing with layers of light.

People are always nostalgic for the old, and the scenes around him can't help but remind him of the past.

At this time, the road in front of him is no longer an ordinary road, but a time tunnel, which brings Tong Xiaolai into the projection room of memories and shows old photos.

Recall: Through the time barrier, he saw his mother walking from the other side of the street. Next to his mother was a little boy who was happily walking home with the simple laughter still ringing in his ears.

Think about that time, there was no trouble, no sorrow, and happiness was so close. He found that the less he knew when he was a child, the more innocent and happier he was, unlike when he grew up, the confused youth gave people the best gift, but it was also accompanied by tearing pain.

"Whoa......

At this moment, a leaf fell on Tong Xiaolai's body.

It didn't take long for some more to fall.

"Huh?"

Tong Xiaolai touched the leaf.

Tong Xiaolai looked overhead.

However, darkness blocked his vision, and he saw nothing.

He didn't pay attention to a few leaves. Tong Xiaolai took a step and continued walking.

Tong Xiaolai just raised his feet, walked and walked, but after a few steps, he noticed that there was movement in the bushes behind him, and there seemed to be something following him.

Tong Xiaolai stopped, it also stopped, Tong Xiaolai walked, it also walked.

Tong Xiaolai thought that it was just a cat and a dog following him, so he left without paying attention. The voice behind kept following.

However, just as he arrived at the convenience store, an old tree in front of the convenience store caught his attention.

Tong Xiaolai always felt that there was something hidden inside.

Tong Xiaolai strengthened his courage and approached the old tree.

And the strange thing is that another leaf fell, and Tong Xiaolai stretched out his hand to continue.

I don't know what's going on tonight, Tong Xiaolai always has a strange feeling that this tree makes him uncomfortable. He vaguely felt that there was something inside.

He decided to go under the tree and find out.

It is said that Tong Xiaolai relied on a momentum, regardless of right and wrong, and did not hesitate to risk the danger to come under the tree and look around the trunk.

Unfortunately, it was too dark for him to see anything.

It shouldn't be anything, he felt that he was thinking too much, so he turned around and prepared to leave.

However, at this moment, he still glanced back.

This is not a matter of hope, and I really see the clue at a glance!

I saw that inside the tree, a light source body was emitted, and an evil gaze seeped out in the darkness, giving Tong Xiaolai a shudder.

At that moment, it was like pouring a bucket of ice water, cold from head to toe. At that moment, Tong Xiaolai saw the eyes from hell.

That empty gaze, with a kind of emptiness, a kind of loneliness, and a kind of bone-chilling coldness, seemed to drag Tong Xiaolai to the border of hell.
