Chapter 355: A Glimmer of Life
It also takes time to execute the evolutionary trap scheme, and the development of a strict technology tree to guide the robot group bit by bit requires a buffer from the time brought by the long distance. And at this moment...... The Robot Syndicate is close enough to the solar system that it is too late to execute the evolutionary trap scheme.
By now, human civilization has lost all means of countering the robot syndicate, human civilization ...... There is nothing to be done about it.
So what else can be done...... There is only one way to escape.
Are you really going to leave the place where you gave birth to us? This is the place where we have lived for generations, everything we are familiar with, the kind blue sky and white clouds, the bustling city that has taken countless manpower to build, the magnificent and beautiful natural environment that has been painstakingly protected, the rushing and roaring river, the raging sea...... Are you really going to give up on all this?
After the Führer's slightly sad words, "We have utterly failed," the thought crossed the minds of everyone in the room. People are silent, and when they look at each other, they can only see deep sadness in each other's eyes.
"We have failed, but that doesn't mean we've lost all hope." The Führer was still whispering, "As long as we can pull ourselves together, as long as we never give up...... I believe that our human civilization will definitely be able to find a second place suitable for our development and reproduction in the starry sky of the universe, our human civilization...... It's going to be able to thrive again. ”
It was clear to the participants that these words were merely used by the Führer to boost morale, and that they had no practical significance. So no one reacted to this, and there was a cold scene in the conference room again.
After a few words, the Führer could no longer speak, so the Führer abandoned this plan and turned the subject to the main topic: "Then I announce that the official implementation of the escape plan has begun, and I ask you to immediately convene a joint meeting to discuss the detailed implementation steps of the escape plan...... Among them, the work of the social sector is the most important, and I ask you to do a good job in the psychological counseling of the people in the process of fleeing, and there must be no chaos. ”
After the overall strategy is determined, the next thing is some detailed things, which are very professional and very detailed, such as the personnel guidance arrangement in the relocation process, such as the adjustment of the living density of the space island, such as the transfer and storage of materials, the backup of scientific and technological equipment, etc., these are not things that Xiao Yun and others can participate in.
So Xiao Yun temporarily withdrew from this meeting. After withdrawing from the meeting, Xiao Yun returned to his home on the outskirts of the Earth's capital city, then locked the door and stayed alone at home for more than ten days.
During these ten days, except for eating and solving physiological needs, Xiao Yun did not leave his room for a moment. Xiao Yun just lay on the bed like that, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes, motionless. When his spirit really can't support it and he is extremely sleepy, Xiao Yun will fall asleep in a daze for a while, and after waking up, Xiao Yun will continue to lie like that.
No one bothered Xiao Yun. The work of the Scientific Affairs Committee, chaired by Xiao Yun, has been confirmed to have failed, and the future arrangements for human civilization have been determined to be flights, so Xiao Yun naturally became idle.
However, others can forget Xiao Yun, but Xiao Yun can't forget himself by himself. Xiao Yun has been living in pain, and that pain is like a sharp knife cutting Xiao Yun's heart all the time. Although no one has expressed their disappointment to Xiao Yun - whether it is the Führer, General Emmerk, even a random passerby he meets on the road, no one has blamed Xiao Yun, and everyone seems to understand that it is not Xiao Yun's reason that things have developed to this point, and Xiao Yun has really done his best in the process - but Xiao Yun himself cannot forgive himself.
Xiao Yun recalled the days he had experienced in the Raqqa system. Harmonious teammates, lively and lovely lovers, and ...... Those monsters that are as hideous as the devil.
"You ruined everything for me......" Xiao Yun muttered to himself, and his body began to tremble slightly, but Xiao Yun finally calmed down.
Xiao Yun was carefully combing through all the news and intelligence he had received since the outbreak of the robot crisis until now, trying his best to recall every subtle place. Xiao Yun fell into contemplation like this, and spent these ten days.
One early morning after more than ten days, Xiao Yun got up from the bed, then carefully washed his face, shaved his beard, took a shower, found a set of clean clothes to change into, and then pushed open the door and came outside.
The weather was still as good as usual, and it was early in the morning, when a warm sun hung in the sky, enveloping the earth with a layer of vitality. Xiao Yun took a deep breath, letting the fresh and pure air flow fill his body, and then took a step forward and came to the government building again.
Along the way, Xiao Yun saw that this core city of human civilization had long since lost its neatness and cleanliness, the road was full of people in a hurry, soldiers in military uniforms everywhere, no one sorted out the garbage on both sides of the street, and the air was full of tension and dullness.
The city is still the same city, and its hardware facilities have basically not changed, but anyone can perceive that the city has decayed. A city, no matter how well it is built, without the existence of people, is just an empty city after all, and will eventually become a pile of ruins.
There was a tall soldier with a few entourages hurrying by, the soldier turned his head by chance, and saw Xiao Yun standing in front of the government building in a daze, so the soldier walked towards Xiao Yun and said to Xiao Yun: "Why are you here?" ”
Xiao Yun turned his head and saw that General Emek had come to him, so Xiao Yun smiled reluctantly and said in a low voice: "It's nothing, I'm just coming to see." ”
As if sensing the abnormality of Xiao Yun's mood, General Emmerk did not rush away, but stood on Xiao Yun's side and continued to say to Xiao Yun: "Several major government departments have determined a preliminary relocation plan, within a month, all the population on the earth will be relocated to the space island, and the subsequent relocation of materials will last for about two months, and all the wealth that our human civilization has left on the earth that can be taken away will be taken away by us." ”
"Two months...... Is it in time? Xiao Yun asked.
"It's only two months, and there's no way to do it." "The Robot Syndicate is still some time away from reaching the solar system, but they are already gathering in a place that is far away and very similar to the escape route we are planning. In order to secure our escape route, we must get through it before the robot groups assemble en masse. ”
"And what about the rest?" Xiao Yun asked.
"Just stay on Earth." General Emak sighed, "Anyway...... It's all our brains, how can we bear to destroy them? ”
The wealth left by human civilization on the earth does not only include physical things such as food, minerals, and resources. The earth's ecosphere and environment are also the wealth of mankind. Naturally, there is no way to take these things away, and at this moment, it seems that General Emmerk has no intention of completely destroying those things and leaving them for the robot group.
"That's what the government meant, not what I me." Emak seemed to sense Xiao Yun's doubts, so he explained to Xiao Yun, "The so-called strong wall Qingye has no meaning at this moment, anyway, we have been defeated, even if we leave these things to the robot group, it will not make our situation worse, and if we don't leave them, it will not make our situation better." And if we destroy them, we will have to bear huge psychological pressure, this is our home after all......"
"Therefore, the government decided not to destroy the ecological environment of the earth, but to regard it as a sustenance that we are human civilization...... Letting it fall into the hands of the enemy rather than ourselves, I think, would be a little more acceptable from an emotional point of view. ”
Xiao Yun nodded silently and did not speak.
"When are you leaving Earth?" General Emak asked, "Has the notice of your arrangement been issued?" ”
"I'm not leaving." Xiao Yun said softly, "I will not leave the earth, even if I die, I will stay on the earth." ”
"What?" General Emmerk's brows immediately furrowed deeply, "Haven't you been very active in promoting the passage of the escape plan?" Why didn't you leave at the last minute? - What is the use of you staying on Earth? Is it for nothing? You are a very good scientific researcher, you are very important to our human civilization, and it would be foolish to lose your life just because of some emotion in your heart. ”
Xiao Yun raised his head and looked at the sky - it was daytime, of course there were no stars in the sky, but Xiao Yun's gaze seemed to have crossed the barrier of the sky and saw the deep and dark universe behind the sky. Xiao Yun's eyes were full of indescribable meaning.
Xiao Yun didn't speak, and General Emek waited for Xiao Yun's answer. After a long time, Xiao Yuncai said: "I want to stay on the earth and fight for the last ray of life for human civilization." (To be continued.) )
