Text 106.Lyra No. 424 (end)
"The Lyra 424 ship has 10 minutes to stop boarding, so please hurry up and board the Scorpio Gliese civilization." The last boarding information began to be repeated on the radio, but the people who were actually going to get on the boat were almost already seated in their rooms.
"Well, according to this schedule, we will pass Jupiter in three days, and then I will disembark and go to Europa Colony, and we may not see each other for a long time...... Are you listening, Laluna? Enander looked at his unhappy sister on the other side, trying to make himself not so sympathetic, "Is your boyfriend really not coming?" β
"Boyfriend who has been missing for a year?" Christine asked with a grimace, "You still think that guy is my boyfriend?" β
"Didn't he say he was going to travel back to China...... It's normal to be popular as an Earth hero...... Maybe there are really a lot of Chinese girls who have taken a fancy to him...... Okay, okay, I won't talk about it! Seeing Christine's face getting worse and worse, Enand wisely stopped the topic, "But Laluna, why do you have to go more than 20 light-years away?" The human migration plan will last for more than 100 years, so you can spend more time with your family first......"
"Hyperspace virtual reality communication has been promoted, where is not the same accompaniment?" Christine said impatiently, "Haven't you fled to Jupiter yet?" β
"Be reasonable, my girlfriend is over there...... Well, I also don't like that fat pig William, if he really wants to become the new president of the United States of America, it will be an absolute nightmare......"
At this time, the radio in the room suddenly sounded, and the female captain projected in the center of the room smiled: "Miss Laluna Mata, someone has sent a gift, I hope you will go to the bridge to collect it in person." β
"Huh?" Christine was surprised, "Ernande, who else knows I'm on this ship?" β
"Isn't this asking yourself? β¦β¦ Could it be someone? "Could it be Catherine or Stephanie?" β
Christine stared at her brother suspiciously for several seconds before finally speaking, "I'll take a look." β
She had barely been out of the room for less than ten seconds when another person flashed in quickly. Ernande looked at this person and couldn't help but snort: "You did that broadcast?" β
"Earth heroes are still a bit of a privilege." Zhao Yu grinned, "After recognizing me, they were all happy to help." β
"That's not what I meant...... Do you think that disappearing for a year and appearing like this can be counted as a surprise for my sister to discourage? β
Zhao Yu scratched his head: "I'm ready to be beaten by her...... Don't worry, I have prepared a lot of gifts, and I have your share. β
Enander rolled his eyes at him, and finally sighed: "You two are both Earth heroes, I can't care about you...... But remember, if you dare to leave her in the Gliese civilization, I promise to make your hero history! β
Zhao Yu raised his hands high: "Absolutely not." β
"If you want me to give up this room as agreed, you tell me what you are going to do first!"
"Uh...... It's classified. β
In the end, Enander hummed and left, leaving Zhao Yu alone in the room. He exhaled, and with his hands and feet he quickly pulled out a chip and inserted it into the brain's socket in the room.
A projection appears in the middle of the room.
"It's a great pleasure to see you, Mr. Zhao Yu - the system confirms that we are on the Skyly-424 starship, and the final destination is the Gliese civilization in the constellation of Lyra, they are members of the Galactic Civilization Consortium and one of the first communication civilizations on Earth......"
"Okay, Gabriel, I know all of this, I activated you because Christine came in a moment and asked for your help to intercede."
"What you're doing, I think she can understand."
"You haven't actually seen her yet! Don't talk so much! β
"I have all the memories of T19, and although I regret that T20 was lost during the assessment, I think there is a good chance of convincing her, such as detailing your experiences over the year, highlighting whether you visited Hunter Malik's family......"
"Anyway, it's all up to you," Zhao Yu said viciously, "If it doesn't work out, don't expect us to get you that useful body when we pass Jupiter!" And I'll be sure to put you on standby for the rest of the journey, giving you a taste of boredom that has nothing to do for decades! β
"So what state should I set you in?" An angry girl's voice suddenly came from the doorway, "Ex-boyfriend? β
Zhao Yu immediately turned around and said with a sneer: "Christine, I can really explain...... But you'd better beat me up first! β
"Oh, of course." With a wave of her hand, a panel appeared in the room, and she pulled out a discharge gun out of thin air.
Zhao Yu's voice changed at that time: "What are you doing with this thing?!" β
"One of the few amulets that can bring a spaceship, of course, after all, no one has been to Gliese yet." Christine said as she adjusted the power of the discharge gun, and the muzzle of the gun emitted dazzling electric sparks, "I'll give you a minute, say it." β
Zhao Yu swallowed his saliva in a cold sweat.
****************
A week ago, Xi'an, China.
The building projected huge advertisements, the streets were bustling with people, most of them riding flying bikes suspended in the air, and immersing themselves in their world via wireless networks as they went, while the autopilot system allowed them to avoid all possible obstacles and unexpected situations.
And on one of the few quaint streets of this sprawling city, two people are sitting in a restaurant window seat.
"Ah, there's only mutton kebab in this city that is still a familiar taste." Sima Shan bit down the meat skewer in his hand fiercely, and asked Zhao Yu opposite, "How do you feel?" Compared with the 21st century? β
ββ¦β¦ To be honest, I don't remember the taste of skewers in the 21st century, and I hadn't been to Xi'an at that time. Zhao Yu replied, "It's you...... When did you come to Earth? Can you still know the taste of the 21st century? β
"Not as long as you think, my so-called familiar taste comes from another universe."
Zhao Yu stopped eating this time and tried to look at the white-haired young man opposite, but he couldn't see anything abnormal: "I also heard that you are from another universe...... But as far as I know, even in the same universe, the evolution between different planets is worlds apart, can different universes give birth to races as similar to ours? β
"That's what my companions and I are working on."
"Your companion?"
"Doesn't you think you mentioned it before?" Sima Shan took a sip of his drink, "At first, it was a group of fools who attacked our world, which provoked our counterattack across the void...... It's a bit of a long story, you can go to the archives of the Galactic Civilization Commonwealth later, and in short, that's when we realized that the outside world was much more interesting than we imagined, and we started our journey into the void, and then a guy found something more interesting. β
"Uh...... Let me confirm, is what you're going to say next classified? β
"No, it is a shared information in the Galactic Civilization Consortium, and there should be many people on the earth who know it, and your current identity is qualified to access this field," Sima Shan raised a hand, and a three-dimensional projection appeared out of thin air in the air, which was countless small balls floating in the air, this scene was like magic in the early 21st century, but now the people passing by around are all familiar with it, "We originally thought that the void was a fixed and describable concept, and countless universes were generated or destroyed in the void, The Galactic Civilization Consortium needs the naked singularity as a bridge to other universes, and we can walk directly in the void, and that's it. β
The projection changed suddenly, and each ball split into countless balls, filling the entire space in an instant.
"However, the 'truth' seems to be more than that. The Void is not an intuitive three-dimensional, it has overlap, fragmentation, change, and the universe affects each other without any intersection, but my companion believes that the rules and laws of the Void can be found between the universes with a high degree of similarity, and the reason why I stayed in this universe is mainly because I want to collect data for him...... Well, most of the work was done by the artificial intelligence he left me, you see, in the guise of a Moira computer. β
After saying a bunch of words that people didn't understand, Sima Shan smiled at Zhao Yu: "However, my work is almost finished, I believe this is the last time we will meet in this world." β
Zhao Yu was stunned: "You want to leave the earth...... No, you're leaving this universe? β
"Yes, the cooperation with the Commonwealth of Civilizations is also coming to an end, and I am going to a new universe to join my companions...... Hopefully they didn't run too far. Sima Shan replied, "The next time we meet, it should be another universe." β
Zhao Yu smiled bitterly when he heard this: "You think too highly of me, right?" Finding the right naked singularity and making a civilization migration is often measured in thousands of years, and I don't expect to live to that point. β
"There may be little hope for other earthlings, but you might." Sima Shan replied solemnly, "You are an earthling, but you have integrated the technology of the Buttermins people, and more importantly, in the past year, you have been studying the rules of space with me - don't underestimate the experience of the Void Traveler, after you really enter space, you will be the one who adapts the fastest." β
ββ¦β¦ However, there are still many difficulties. β
"On that note, I appreciate what you guys said two hundred years ago." The projection in front of Sima Shan turned into a middle-aged man, who was giving a speech, "It's not difficult to remember this, remember what your planet has given in the past hundred years, remember what you have fought for, remember the glory and courage you once hadβbecause you have never given up." β
Zhao Yu couldn't help but look at the projection, the middle-aged man he knew, but he died long before he was born.
"Why, someone asked, did we go to the moon...... The reason why we chose to go to the moon is not because it was easy, but because it was difficult, because it would be the biggest challenge to our organizational ability and technology, because it was a challenge that we were happy to accept, because it was a challenge that we did not want to postpone, because it was a challenge that we were determined to achieve, and the same was true for other challenges! β
Although the content of the speech was limited to historical factors and did not fully correspond to the status quo, this speech, along with other exciting speeches encouraging earthlings to march into space, has been broadcast countless times in major media in the three years since the end of the assessment.
"Humanity was born on Earth, but it should never perish here."
"The life of the crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger has brought us glory, and we will never forget them, nor will we forget the last time we saw them this morning, when they were preparing to hit the road, waving goodbye, breaking free from the rough grip of the earth, and touching God's face."
"We will continue to explore space. We will have more space flights, more astronauts, more volunteers, more civilians, more teachers into space. Nothing will end here. Our hope and our journey will not stop. β
"Do not walk gently into that good night, for the twilight is coming, and the old age will still burn and roar; Angry, angry at the fading of the light......"
"You are looking at the dense twinkling stars on a clear night, and you have an unattainable disappointment. Are we really so pathetic? No, never, we must conquer the universe. β
"Maybe in the past hundred years, we have been stupid and reckless, unenterprising, wavering, and at the mercy of alien civilizations, but from now on, we will keep moving forward, we will go to every corner of the galaxy, we will explore the passage of the universe, we will no longer be confused, we will no longer hesitate, we will step into the sea of stars with the pride of being an earth civilization, and never look back!"
When Zhao Yu came back to his senses from the projection, Sima Shan had disappeared without a trace.
"Reunite in the new universe......" Zhao Yu was silent for a moment, took out the pendant hanging on his chest, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar face, and suddenly laughed, "For a person who thought that life would end on the earth in the 21st century, this contrast is really not ordinary, right?" β
********************
Christine raised an eyebrow.
"I see." "Let's turn down the intensity of the shock by two gears," she said. β
"Wait a minute, hey, hey! β¦β¦ I didn't turn down the intensity at all by you! β
"Long-winded, anyway, you are very resistant to fighting, what does it matter if you take two hits to make me angry!"
**********************
A huge silver-gray spaceship was parked on the take-off site, with a few words emblazoned on its hull: "Borg Ansol".
"Are you really going to send this ship?" In the command room of the tower, Yoko Nakamura pinched her brows, "To be honest, I don't have any confidence in this guy's character, obviously I needed human body modification to save my life, but after most of my body was replaced with machinery, I actually went even crazier than before." β
"It was because of this character that he was selected to become the first captain of a deep space warship." Wang Feng said as he connected to a channel, "How do you feel, Captain Borg?" β
"As with the tests of the past few months, it feels very good, the system is working fine, just like when I was a 'human' β I still want to smoke, but I can hold back." A blonde man's avatar appeared on the screen, "There are still a few minutes left in the countdown, what else do you have to ask?" β
"No, all the requirements have been entered into your main memory." Wang Feng replied, "Captain Borg, your current identity ......"
"Don't always nag like an old lady, you've said it many times, I represent a new concept of earthlings - you are so unconfident in the quantum auxiliary brain storage function you designed?"
The United Earth Government is being prepared to be formed, and within one hundred and fifty years, all the living earthlings will leave the solar system to escape gamma bursts, but one or two outer space colonies are certainly not enough to accommodate as many as 10 billion inhabitants, and the resources to be consumed on the way are also amazing, so whether they want to or not, encouraging and promoting a large number of Earth residents to go to the depths of the universe has become an established matter for the Earth government to strive for in the next hundred years.
Before that, the biological warship transformed from volunteers became the most special advance force, although the whole body is not much similar to the earthlings, only the brain and less than 5% of the physical tissue remains, but people have gradually recognized that as long as they have not forgotten the blue home star, and the life with the feelings of the earth in their memories can be called earthlings.
Maybe one day in the future, this civilization will completely abandon the genes from the earth, and the characteristics of civilization, language and writing, and thinking patterns are very different from those of their ancestors, and maybe one day in the future, they will go to another universe and never have the opportunity to look back at their home planet.
But the memories from Earth will live on until the day they lose their momentum.
"There's a lot of conceptual change we have to get used to, Captain Borg, you're the first to go." Yoko Nakamura said, "After three years of transformation and training, you will be the first Earth deep space warship to go 40,000 light-years away to support the main battlefield of the Civilization Commonwealth, and everyone including us will be watching your performance." β
"Oh, if I'm not mistakenβit's probably been more than a thousand years since I arrived on the main battlefield, are you sure you'll be able to keep an eye on my performance then?"
Wang Feng was serious: "Maybe, after I retire, I also have plans to travel to outer space, as long as the destination is farther away, hibernation for hundreds of years will pass." β
"Oh, I've heard you say this, you seem to have an ancestor of the same name who is a fanatical cosmic fan, when the Buttermins first arrived on Earth, the old couple was over eighty years old and immediately responded to the interstellar travel plan and went to the constellation Pojiang?"
"Well, I heard that they reshaped their bodies over there, and now they are very healthy...... Maybe I'll meet them again fifty years from now. β
"You think too much, within the scope of the galaxy, the number of earthlings is simply negligible, but I still wish you all the way - oh wait, I received a communication, Lyra 424 has lifted off, Zhao Yu is on the ship, I think I can leave in time to say hello now!" "Say hello to General Chandler for me, and tell him that it would be interesting to abandon his human body to be a battleship if he is bored!" β
ββ¦β¦ I will. Wang Feng said with a wry smile.
The spacecraft made a dashing roll when it flew to an altitude of more than 100 meters, and then quickly disappeared into the clouds, but everyone saw that while rolling, several guards on the ship's shell also flipped over, and the original "Borg Ansol" became an extremely ugly word: "DAETH".
There was silence in the command room.
"This time...... Maybe it's really going to be disgraced and thrown into the whole universe. Yoko Nakamura said quietly.
--End of the book---
===========================
This is the end of the plot of this book.,Similar to the previous "Demon Three Kingdoms",This time it's still the desire to write a "story I like" to support me to finish writing this novel.,As an online article,Maybe the number of words is really small.,But I think it's enough as a world I want to describe and a complete story.γ (Words in my heart: What do you do by writing so many words, and you don't have the money to take it...... οΌ
However, at the beginning, I only planned to write a story of about 300,000 words, but where did I get 100,000 words more?
To be honest, there are still a lot of dissatisfactions and a lot of things that cannot be expressed, which can be summed up in four words: "limited ability".
I have an idea for the next book, but I won't start it anytime soon, because I already have a lot of money to pay...... I hope that next time, I can write a story that everyone will enjoy.
Well, thank you to my friends who have always supported me, and to the readers who have endured the speed at which I am updating (which is very important!). We'll have a chance to see you again in the future.
(Wow ha, I'm also the one who finished two novels now!) οΌ
