Chapter 381: Vacation
The heaviness and darkness of the universe is the best veil that can block everything that people want to see and don't want to see. www.biquge.info The war broke out, and the war ended. The victors continue their journey on the run, while the vanquished remain here forever, reduced to the cold stones of the universe.
In the initial stages, there was a lot of debris from the war, and it was everywhere in the area. But both of them have initial velocity, and the direction of their motion is not the same. As a result, after just a few months, the amount of things here has decreased by at least 90 percent, and it continues to decrease rapidly. In just two years' time, the place will return to nothingness and loneliness, and no one will be able to find traces of the war.
It's like nothing happened.
Naturally, people on earth don't know what happened here. First, the fugitive government and the autonomous government have been disconnected, secondly, it is too far away from the earth for the autonomous government to detect the signals that have been sent here by any means of detection, and thirdly, even if the autonomous government's detection methods are sensitive enough to carry the light and signals about this war, they have not yet crossed a long distance to reach here.
Life on Earth is still as busy and stressful as it was in the past. The doping program has now been implemented for more than two years, and as Xiao Yun expected, after the implementation of the doping program, the efficiency of the team of scientists has increased by at least two times, and the work is constantly advancing rapidly, and if it continues to develop according to this progress, everything will be ready in three months at most.
But along with the rapid progress of the work, the rapid aging of the scientists' bodies. The doping program seriously damaged the physical base of scientists and overdrew their vitality.
Their eye sockets were deeply sunken, their eyeballs were always bloodshot, and their bodies were rapidly emaciated, and even now they can be described as skin and bones. But in contrast to the rapid weakness of the body is their spirit. The weaker a person's body is, the more excited their spirit becomes. People are scrawny, but their voices are still full of energy, and their actions are becoming more and more neat, even walking like a trot.
The same goes for Xiao Yun. During this time, no matter what he did, Xiao Yun always felt full of energy, and his increasingly thin body seemed to contain infinite power, so that Xiao Yun didn't know what tiredness was.
But everyone knows that this is not normal. In fact, the consequences of the doping programme are already being felt. I don't know how many times, often the person who was still working one moment ago, the next moment he fell to the ground, and never woke up. There were even several times when this kind of thing happened to Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun once watched an elderly scientist who was highly respected by everyone fall in front of him. One moment, he was still communicating with him about how to simulate the most basic composition of particles in the theory of high-energy physics, and the next moment he was limp in his chair and closed his eyes forever.
The sound of the water cup in his hand falling to the ground was like a sledgehammer, slamming into Xiao Yun's head. Xiao Yun was distracted for a few seconds, but Xiao Yun reacted after a while. Xiao Yun did not go to investigate his situation, nor did he give him first aid, but very calmly picked up the communication equipment, connected to the person in charge of the physics group, briefly reported the situation here, and asked him to send a member of the physics group to communicate with him about the previous problems.
Members of the medical team came in later to remove the scientist's body, and none of the dozen or so people working in the lab even glanced at it.
People do not grieve the death of their companions, because it is known that this situation will eventually befall everyone, without exception. The only difference is that it's just a little earlier and a little later.
Death is not important, work is the most important.
Occasionally, there will be happy images in the base, but they are rare. The entire research group led by Xiao Yun is divided into many subdivided groups, each with its own area of responsibility. After the group has completed all the tasks in their field, they can go on a "vacation" - because they are no longer needed for the rest of the work.
Whenever someone can take a vacation from their heavy work, the entire research base congratulates them and holds a small farewell party. After the farewell party, the leavers will leave the base by special helicopter, and there will be special logistics personnel to send them to where they want to go, and be responsible for providing the whole process of medical security and life support services.
Some people will choose to go back to the place where they grew up, quietly review and think about their life in the continuous cycle of sunrise and sunset, some people will choose to come to the place where they have never had time but have always wanted to go, linger in the magnificent natural landscapes such as famous mountains and rivers, lakes and oceans, and some people choose to use alcoholic beverages to numb themselves, vent in the bright lights and wine, and experience this kind of life that they have never experienced and touched before.
But no matter which way people choose to take a vacation, it won't last long. The long-term stimulant programme has taken a toll on their bodies, exacerbated by the sudden slackness of their minds after a vacation and an unhealthy lifestyle. So, after a short experience of life, scientists have stepped into death.
But death cannot be feared. Every scientist who completes the task chooses to take a vacation, and the way of taking a vacation is getting crazier and more bizarre. They seem to have chosen to splurge at the end of their lives, without thinking about the consequences, to truly experience life. Even if this kind of life will hasten one's own death.
General Emak chose to remain silent about the situation. General Emak knew that they had given everything for civilization, and now they ...... It's time to really live for yourself.
With the passage of time, more and more people are on vacation in the scientific research base, and there are fewer and fewer people left. In the end, even Xiao Yun and Dink were left, and only a few members of the program team led by the two were still sticking to the scientific research base.
The skeleton of the entire deception plan has been built, and all that remains is to put it together and implement it at the program level. It's the most complex and time-consuming job, but no one but the members of the program team can do it, not even helping.
Fortunately, the scientists of the rest of the group completed their tasks ahead of schedule, and Xiao Yun had enough time to carry out this work - the whole deception plan was linked one after another, and if the former task was not completed, the latter work could not be carried out.
Time slipped away in the constant hectic work. Occasionally, obituaries were sent to Xiao Yun's workbench, and those obituaries were usually simple and straightforward, describing messages such as "on such and such a day in such a month, in such and such a place, at such and such an age". But the cause of death was the same, "death from sequelae or complications of the doping programme".
One familiar person after another died, some died at home, some died on the journey, some died drunk and some died quietly in their sleep......
Even, by now, there are only two people left in the program group, Xiao Yun and Dink.
All the scientists involved in the deception program, except for Xiao Yun and Dink, all died, without exception. They finally couldn't wait for the results of the execution, and they wouldn't know if the final execution of the plan was a success or a failure.
Xiao Yun and Dink have not stopped their progress, there were originally more than 2,000 people following Xiao Yun and Dink, but this road was too difficult, the followers died one after another, and in the end, only the original two people were still struggling to move forward on this road.
Eventually, Dink also died - although Dink was as young as Xiao Yun, his health had always been bad, and he was far less strong than Xiao Yun. So Xiao Yun was the only one left on the way forward.
Dink died in front of Xiao Yun. Dink was calm when he died. As if he suddenly knew that he was going to die, Dink calmly explained something to Xiao Yun, and then sat down in the chair and closed his eyes, as if he was just sleeping.
Xiao Yun desperately held back his tears and tried his best to calm down the fluctuations in his heart. Xiao Yun knew that everyone was dead, and he was the only person alive on the earth who could carry out the deception plan. If you have a nervous breakdown...... The death of all of them will be a joke.
A few minutes later, Xiao Yun calmly notified the medical team to retrieve Dink's body, and then continued to immerse himself in the editing and calculation of the program.
The entire base fell silent, no longer busy and noisy. So the monkeys were finally free to play throughout the base, and no one was going to drive them away.
I don't know how long it has been, I don't know if it's a month or a year, when Xiao Yun raised his head in a trance, he saw General Emak standing in front of him for some time.
"The Sky Survey Observatory has just sent me a message, and they have confirmed that they have found traces of the robot group." General Emak whispered, "They are only two months away from us, and the number is about ...... 100 million units. (To be continued.) )
