Chapter 18: A Fragmented Past
Ye Ling scratched his head and looked at Vladimir in front of him drawing a circle on the blackboard, "This is our earth." Then he drew a small circle next to it, "This is called the dark side." Ye Ling raised his hand, and Vladimir pointed at Ye Ling with a chalk, "Okay, classmate Ye Ling, what's your problem?"
"First of all, why am I here?Second, what are you going to tell me?Third, what is the dark side?" Ye Ling rubbed her forehead helplessly, it had been a few days since she came back from Fantasy City, if she hadn't been able to jump barefoot on the third floor and run five seconds in 100 meters, she would have wondered if her previous experience was a ridiculous dream.
Yes, the appearance of his own playground test ability was also seen by the counselor, and then this guy was caught by Xie Liu and shocked with a high-voltage current for half an hour until his memory disappeared. This also reflects from the side, how correct Ye Ling's choice was that he did not choose to erase his memory at that time.
"Okay, classmate Ye Ling, you asked these questions well. Vladimir pushed the tip of his nose on his sunglasses, "The questions have to be answered one by one, the first question, you are now in an invisible space that I have developed, and now it is also connected to your dormitory, and this will be the place where we discuss problems and train in the future, of course, don't be too violent, you can't afford to destroy this invisible space." As for why you are here, because we want to educate you ideologically. ”
"Huh?" Ye Ling crooked his mouth, looking like an old lady is not uncommon, "As for the second question, we have to explain some set questions to you clearly here, in case the reader can't understand it." ”
"What?" Ye Ling was dumbfounded, Vladimir knew that he was speechless, and hurriedly coughed a few times, "Ahem, don't care, it's a show, let's get down to business." You can say that you don't know anything about our current world at all, so I will talk to you about our world in detail later, and you readers, please read it carefully. Okay, the third question, what's that?"
"What is the dark side?" Xie Liupan sat behind Ye Ling, like a primary school student, raised his hand innocently and asked, and then reacted, "Wait, why am I here?"
"You are sitting here full of pictures, please sit down, Comrade Ye Ling, please speak. Vladimir said unhurriedly, Ye Ling's face darkened, "Can you speak well." ”
"Okay, the dark side, right. Vladimir held up his fingers, ignoring Ye Ling's dark face, and walked towards his right hand, a small test bench gradually came into view, "You imagine a balance first, yes, it's one." He pointed to the small tin scales on the table. "The balance is very precise, smooth, well, at the moment. With that, he took a large cotton ball and placed it on the left, and the whole balance went down to the left. "Let's assume that if this cotton ball is the earth and has so much mass, then obviously, the balance has come down, and if I want to balance it, what do I do?"
"On the other side, it's the same quality. Ye Ling said, and Vladimir gave a thumbs up, "You're so smart, I'll give you a thumbs up, yes, put something, but, not necessarily a cotton ball." With that, he took out a small iron bead from a small box and placed it on his right. The scales slowly returned to the point of equilibrium.
"If the cotton ball is the earth, then this iron ball is the dark side. "Yes, the dark side is a planet composed of some indescribable matter, this planet seems to be equal to the mass of the earth, but its diameter is not even one-tenth of the earth, all the matter of the dark side has a mass that we cannot imagine, and of course it has properties that we cannot imagine." ”
"We have too little research on the dark side, that world, the gravity on the surface is hundreds of times that of the earth, we don't even have the ability to break away from its surface, the laws of space and time are invalid there, we can't study what space the planet is in, just overcoming gravity has stretched us to the limit. Vladimir pointed at Xie Liu, "Take out your baby." ”
Xie Liuyan's eyebrows trembled when he heard this, and then he took out a pitch-black bullet from his arms.
"This bullet, the shell is made of dark metal, and the thickness is only seven nanometers, but it can withstand the impact of a nuclear bomb, so the inside of this bullet is not filled with ordinary *, but nuclear fuel! It ignites again after being shot, and the power of the second acceleration should be able to sink an aircraft carrier. Vladimir said, and Ye Ling looked at the inconspicuous bullet in front of him in surprise.
"This metal is too hard for us to deal with with in any physical way, so this bullet is crystallized one by one by us from the atomic level, including the pattern on the top, which is also calculated when arranging the atoms, you can imagine, such a bullet would take a whole year for a research institute to make a batch, and a single batch will not exceed a hundred. Its cost is 20 million points. Vladimir returned the bullet to Xie Liu, "This is also their killer weapon." ”
"Do you understand what the dark side means to us?" said Vladimir, "we didn't go to the universe because we didn't figure out what the dark side was like, and I think even the current technology in the city will take a long time to study." ”
"Understood, okay, but, that, you always mentioned, Fantasy City, is it the undersea city I saw before?" Ye Ling continued to ask, Vladimir nodded, "Almost, that is the main body of the city, but Fantasy City still has branches in the world, although there is no such a huge city, but it is also very important to maintain these branches, and the branches also maintain the normal operation of the city." ”
"Fantasy City was founded in the 11th century, its purpose is to build an ideal township that can develop freely, so the city has put all its resources into science for thousands of years, of course, in this regard, we are also different from the outside world, such as the mechanical formula you are familiar with, in our case is another way of expression, the principle is the same. Vladimir walked back from the experimental table, "Our scientific path has been much earlier than that of humans outside, and the level of science and technology of human beings is equivalent to that of us five hundred years ago." ”
"About 300 years ago, we moved out of the mountains of Central Asia, and it took 17 years to build the city on the bottom of Bermuda, when our technology was not mature and there were a lot of problems, but in the end we succeeded, and the whole city was relocated. This is what you saw before: Fantasy City. Vladimir pointed to the moving photographs on the wall.
"Last time, I only introduced you to the core area, in fact, the city is divided into five layers, and the first layer is the artificial planet ecosystem on the periphery. There are all the ecosystems on the planet that sustain the climate change throughout the city. At the same time, it is also a holiday destination.
The second floor is the green belt and industrial belt, where all the industrial factories of the city are concentrated, and it also serves as a park and other production centers.
The third level is the residential area, which is obviously used for no more than a general residential area and a student area, in the city, where all children over the age of twelve have to live away from their parents, and the student area is bordered by a school park in the internal business district.
The fourth floor is the business district, this floor is divided into four parts, the north business district, the south business district, the west school garden city bordering the outside student area and the eastern isolation zone This place is the area that links the dark side. There are also two layers of tempered glass protection, and few people have access to it.
The last layer you saw last time, so don't say more.
In addition, the upper echelons of the metropolis were divided into two parts, the military and the council.
The council generally has 12 chairmen and more than 100 council members, although the military comes out alone, but major decisions have to go through the council, so we have a lot of power in the council chair, and I am one of the 12 council chairmen. ”
"Looks like you're in a very high position. Ye Ling looked at the young man in front of him with a strange gaze, Vladimir shook his head, and continued, "The military is divided into three parts, the first and the first to be established is the [City Guard], which are all well-trained guards, generally responsible for the security of the city, and can join the battle when necessary.
After the [Evolution War], the city established a professional army [United Force], which is the strongest force in the city, and has a large number of the city's most advanced weapons. The space battleships you saw before belong to the combined warbox.
In the end, it was the [Hunting Team] where Xie Liu's group of guys belonged. Originally, it was an institution set up for the special forces of the Special Alliance, but then it developed into the current [Hunter Club], a bit like a trade union, the people of the hunting team are collectively referred to as [Hunters], they accept employment and complete tasks, in addition, there are seventeen [direct hunting teams] directly under the Council, these seventeen teams are the teams for the special forces of the Special Alliance, and now you are my direct hunting team [Doom Team], do you have any questions?"
"What is [Special Alliance]?" Ye Ling raised his hand again, and Vladimir laughed, "Did you finally ask the most important part?" Very good, please take out your notebooks, the following are the key points, to be examined. Ye Ling had already given up his plan to bring Vladimir, who was going farther and farther on the road of self-hilarity, back to normal thinking, and said helplessly: "Say it." ”
"The birth of the special alliance started with the [Human Evolution Project], when we completed the migration to the bottom of the sea, another problem was placed in front of us: compared to the speed of our scientific and technological progress, we humans have hardly evolved ourselves, and the speed of natural evolution is too slow, so we want to accelerate human evolution through the power of science. ”
"At that time, there were a lot of research directions, and in the end, we decided on [Extreme Development] and [Superpower Project] as the direction of evolution, on the one hand, to improve our physical fitness, and on the other hand, to develop superpowers, so that we can do anything. It can be said that both developments were successful. However, another group of people do not think so, they are the scientists who study [mechanical modification] and [genetic modification], after making a plan in the city, they are dissatisfied with this plan and start a rebellion, we call this event [evolutionary war]. The end result was that the entire city was split in two, and the rebels went out with a large number of branches in the north to form what is now the Special Alliance, and their way of evolution was to mechanically modify humans, or genetically modify humans. Now the two forces are in a state of hostility. ”
"At present, the city has a total of one main city, 26 branches, and a total population of 64 million, of which 60 percent is located in the main city. Vladimir smiled slightly, the average annual output value is more than dozens of times that of the world, and this is not counting the added value of high-tech products. ”
"So, in this way, we are just an inconspicuous ant in this behemoth?" Ye Ling asked in surprise, Vladimir nodded, "Don't worry about those, the city is too big, I don't know many things myself, you just do your own thing, now what you have to do is very simple, go back to your school and go to class honestly." ”
Ye Ling sighed, knowing that it was no longer interesting for him to ask, and he also knew his goal, "Then I will go back, looking forward to cooperating with you in the future." ”
After speaking, Ye Ling turned around and walked into the door that flashed with light behind him.
"Alas, wait, that door is not repaired, there is a ...... over there," Vladimir shouted. Hearing Ye Ling's scream, his expression stiffened slightly.
"Da Kengye ......" said half a year late, and then they heard Ye Ling roar, "The old lady is not finished with you!"
