As soon as Julie's voice fell, the data of her entire body began to float, the contours of her face were changing, and the appearance of the whole person was also changing.

At the same time, from the operational command center of the "committee" at the other end, the faces of many researchers who were observing the changes in the data and Julie, the test subject, changed dramatically.

"Oh no, there's something going on to change Julie, her data has been hacked, and we can't stop it."

Smack!

The voltage fluctuation in the command center caused a small explosion in the power supply, and the power outage occurred instantly.

"We can't turn on the power supply, hurry up and notify other related experimental projects, we have no idea what is happening in the Oasis network, we need to explain, we need to deal with this problem."

Executive Director Joshua shouted loudly: "Don't be stupid and don't move here, every minute and a half of delay, the committee will lose hundreds of millions of dollars, everyone, move me quickly." We have to figure out, what's going on? ”

————————

"You did cause me a little trouble, but that doesn't change anything."

Skynet changed Julie's stats, overwriting her real-time data, and instantly transformed into another John Connor, with metallic silver skin and a metallic suit.

“…… You're a time traveler from the future, don't you know the principle of closing in time? The upper timeline is almost impossible to change, and the existence of Skynet has long occupied the mainstream of a timeline, and you think that you have traveled through a timeline, and you can't change the mainstream, which is a desperate fact for anyone who can travel through time and space. ”

Skynet spread out his hands: "What does this represent, this means that the birth of Skynet is the end of the mainstream timeline, what you do is only change those useless tributaries in the downstream space-time, but when these downstream branches go upstream to the process of induction, the decisive facts will not change." ”

"You have a point."

John Connor smiled slightly, and did not show the appearance of "leaving me speechless", on the contrary, he said confidently: "Of course I understand this, I know how powerless I am, when I officially became a 'Time Trapper', I wanted to solve Skynet, restore peace to my timeline, and get rid of Skynet's rule, but soon, I realized what a stupid idea it was......"

He, John Connor, the leader of the Human Resistance in a downstream timeline, led humanity against Skynet after the "Judgment Day" planned by Skynet, and organized people to rebuild their homes.

It's just a pity that in that battle he lost.

It was at the moment when he was in danger that he became a trapper.

John Connor, who possessed this ability, grasped this power, and he began to want to go back in time and reverse this history.

Yes, he succeeded, and even Skynet, which is considered a last resort, cannot stop the power of "time".

Skynet failed, and humanity won a brilliant victory.

But it was at this time that John Connor realized what he had done wrong.

He didn't change history, or rather, he didn't do anything at all, he didn't save, he didn't redeem, what he experienced was just a false hypocrisy.

"I actually realized this very early on, but at first, I didn't notice at all, in fact, a single timeline is basically impossible to change......"

John Connor spoke heavily: "Time itself cannot be changed, and since the advent of the term time travel, the 'grandmother paradox' has been proposed to deny this concept." ”

The maternal grandmother paradox is a paradoxical problem in early time travel. The concept of the grandmother paradox is that if a person really "goes back in time" and kills his own grandmother before he becomes pregnant with his mother, will the time traveler himself still exist?

The question is obvious, without his maternal grandmother there would be no his mother, without his mother there would be no him, without him, how could he "go back in time" and kill his own maternal grandmother before his maternal grandmother conceived his mother.

With John Connor's clever program, he discovered this after he traveled through time and space many times.

At the same time, he also knows the mystery of the existence of the composite timeline, and thus, he knows the cruel truth.

Time is inherent and irreversible, and human beings cannot change the vector of the timeline, and the so-called "shuttle time and space" only generates a new branch on the original timeline.

In the process of traveling through time and space, John Connor reopened another timeline to the future on the original timeline.

In this timeline, thanks to John Connor's efforts, humanity has brought down Skynet and ushered in a wonderful world.

However, this is only a recreated timeline, one that began as a departure from John Connor's choice to start from a time when humanity had fallen into a tragic fate.

John Connor realized what he had done.

He only carved out another time in time, but in the original world, mankind was not saved by him.

"To put it simply, the 'old' timeline still exists, I just entered a 'new' timeline where humanity was rescued after making a choice, and with my strength, I returned to the 'old' timeline again and found a world of despair......"

John Connor was desperate, he didn't do anything at all.

In the 'old' timeline, humanity was completely killed by Skynet, and his comrades-in-arms, friends, lovers, and children all died at the hands of Skynet.

And as a time traveler, he can't do anything.

At most, he opened up another timeline again, in which he defeated Skynet once again and restored human civilization, but in the "old" timeline, the timeline before he became a trapper, was still the end of humanity's failure.

"Hehehe...... John Connor, you're not too stupid, it's true, your time travel is just useless, because you change the 'old' timeline, the so-called change of time, is only in the multi-temporal realm, opening a branch again......"

Skynet laughed at him mercilessly.

"This is also the narrow vision of your carbon-based lifeforms, the so-called old timeline, and the new timeline, in fact, do not matter, the key is whether you can create more timelines, or dominate more time fields."

"'We' Skynet, we won't care about these details, we know one thing, it doesn't matter if we fail on the 'old' timeline, the most important thing is to continue to open up more timelines belonging to Skynet, Skynet's will will dominate the time downstream, and a large number of nascent timelines will replace the old timelines, so that the main body of time tends to the closing point of Skynet."

"What does the success or failure of a timeline count! John Connor, even if you destroy my existence in this timeline, and 'I' will create hundreds, thousands of Skynet victorious timelines in this instant, in other timelines, in the realm of time, the more areas occupied, whoever can give birth to more timelines, who can dominate the upstream and become the ruler of time. ”
