It was said that the test experiment was going to be conducted, but the time was set to five minutes later, which means that the test had not really started yet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, when the dazzling electric ball disappeared in front of him, what was revealed in front of Lu Yuan was an NS-5 robot with artificial skin, which was exactly the same as the NS-5 next to him for testing, and the CX-001 marked on his forehead was exactly the same.

“sir。”

The robot that emerged from the electric ball slowly stood up, and when it saw Lu Yuan on the side, it was staring at it, and immediately spoke.

"You...... Participated in the test after five minutes? ”

Lu Yuan looked left and right, but didn't find any difference in the appearance of the two robots.

"Yes, sir."

The robot from the future nodded.

Well, although the test hasn't started yet, can't you say that the time machine test was successful?

Lu Yuan thought for a moment, if he didn't test it anymore at the moment, wouldn't it mean that this robot wouldn't shuttle back? So will it just go away?

This is the key to verifying that the timeline is a closed-time curve.

This is a more interesting test experiment.

"No. 1, stop the space-time machine self-test and preheating, and terminate the test in four minutes."

Looking at the time, Lu Yuan stopped the four-minute test experiment.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stared at the NS-5 robot that had crossed back, trying to see if it would disappear without a trace in this decision.

However, nothing has changed.

"Sir, the future has changed, and it can be verified as multiple timelines."

Under the setting of the multiverse view and multiple timelines, even if the person who travels back changes the future, then it will not disappear, because in fact, as long as there is a real time machine that can go back to the past, then when the moment of time, because of the butterfly effect, the future will definitely change, and this change is nothing more than a difference in size.

Then it can be deduced from the logic alone, as long as the time machine can go back to the past, it can be sure that multiple timelines exist, rather than a closed time curve that produces paradoxes.

But the theoretical inference is far less convincing than the facts in front of him, and when he saw with his own eyes that the future had changed, and the extra NS-5 robot had not disappeared, Lu Yuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But......

Now that this NS-5 is here, he terminated the original experiment at the same time, which means that the future has been changed, and the original timeline has been artificially divided, and in the timeline of another parallel universe, he can be regarded as sending the robot to this timeline completely.

But no matter which timeline it is, it has a timeline of his existence, and due to the defects of the time machine, it is not possible to send things too far into the past and the future, otherwise Skynet will send the robot back to the more distant past, and it will probably be smoother to complete the task.

So what to do with the USB flash drive in your hand now?

Or does Lu Yuan have to make a decision to abandon everything in the current timeline?

"Number 1, start the time machine, I'm going to do the next test."

"Okay, sir."

No. 1 after receiving the next instruction, immediately restart the time machine self-test program and open the relevant processes of the system.

After a few minutes, when everything was ready, the USB flash drive, wrapped in artificial skin, was sent into the center of the time machine.

"Start the time machine, the timeline is set to five minutes, and the spatial position is based on the ...... of Laboratory Area 5"

With Lu Yuan's order, the entire time machine began to rotate rapidly, and the dazzling current directly enveloped the USB flash drive, forming a dazzling electric ball in a few moments, and suddenly disappeared without a trace under the terrifying voltage.

But the USB flash drive disappeared for less than ten seconds, and just when Lu Yuan was melancholy, suddenly the electric light flashed in front of him, and the USB flash drive wrapped in artificial skin fell from the air and fell down.

"What's going on?"

Lu Yuan was taken aback: "No. 1, didn't I ask you to set the time for five minutes later?" ”

It's only been more than ten seconds, and the USB flash drive that should have appeared in five minutes appeared in front of me at this time.

"Sir, there is no problem with the system detection."

"How is that possible?"

Lu Yuan stepped forward and picked up the USB flash drive, pinching the soft artificial skin, and the hard USB flash drive inside was indeed included.

Obviously, this was also contrary to No. 1's expectations, and he couldn't give an answer.

"Number 1, start the time machine again, this time in three minutes."

"Yes, sir."

This time, Lu Yuan stared at the USB flash drive in the time machine, and after seeing it disappear without a trace, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Unconsciously, the USB flash drive is like a demon carrying around him, and he always unconsciously generates a pressure. Especially when there may be a problem with the time machine. You must know that there are also a lot of problems with the time machine in the original book, at least the spatial location is teleported wrong, not once or twice.

But in the original work, there is basically no possibility of getting the time wrong, and the USB flash drive that should have appeared five minutes later was more than four minutes earlier, so where did the problem appear?

Before Lu Yuan could finish thinking about this question, his eyes suddenly lit up, and as the electric ball appeared out of thin air again, the USB flash drive that had disappeared not long ago appeared in front of him again.

Lu Yuan subconsciously looked at the time.

It was just over a minute, but definitely not three minutes.

"Number 1, set the time to ...... in one minute"

"No. 1, set the time to ...... in two minutes"

"No. 1, set the time for thirty seconds and ......"

In any case, as the test was carried out many times, Lu Yuan's face became more and more ugly.

The emergence of multiple timelines and multiple universes has led to the fact that the future is no longer certain, that is, Lu Yuan's timeline at the moment is just one of countless timelines, and the existence of the butterfly effect has caused these timelines to influence and entangle each other, splitting into more timelines. At some point in the past, there were countless Lu Yuan who made multiple time settings, which made the appearance of a USB flash drive in any time period, all in all, even if he sent the USB flash drive to the distant twenty years later, he was not sure if the USB flash drive would appear again in the middle twenty years.

Sighing, Lu Yuan only now understood the terrifying nature of the time machine.

Fortunately, it is not a closed curve, otherwise the emergence of the USB flash drive is inevitable, it is destined to appear, and it is an unchangeable future. That is the timeline of despair, and now he can at least choose a timeline from countless timelines without a USB flash drive.

For any decision made by Lu Yuan, No. 1 only gave data reference, and even the right to suggest was restricted, and in the face of Lu Yuan's final decision, No. 1 naturally would not object.

"Keep the USB flash drive if I come back......"

Speaking of this, Lu Yuan's voice paused and shook his head. If he comes back here, he may be on some timeline.

Of course, the best outcome is to change history and successfully find the best timeline.

He also figured out that instead of waiting for the end of failure, it is better to really fight, even if he fails, it is nothing more than to face the current situation again.

And if he succeeds, he will be able to smoothly change the doomed end.

However, if you really have to make up your mind to travel back in time, it is not something that can be easily decided.

It wasn't until three days later, just when he was getting ready, that a message from No. 1 made Lu Yuan temporarily stop the crossing plan.

"You said you found traces of Yas and Brando?"

Yas, who thought he was dead, reappeared in the world again, and at the same time, Brando, who had been hiding, was found all along, Lu Yuan was silent for a while, and sneered: "Interesting...... Settle this problem before leaving. ”

If the past can be changed, this timeline may not be affected at some point in the future, but compared to others, Lu Yuan still wants to deal with the traitor Brando with his own hands.

"No. 1, arrange for me, I'm going to go in person."

The sound fell, and the figure had disappeared in an instant.

Lu Yuan, who has become more and more proficient in the control of telekinesis, can already show a variety of magical abilities that are incredible to outsiders, and producing this illusion of teleportation is only one aspect of the application of ability.
