The air was as silent as death, and the people who had been looking at each other like monkeys were completely silent.

Wu Xinghuan was stunned in place as if his brain was down for a moment, Xiao Yong, who was holding his arms, frowned slightly, and Luo Yi fell into deep thought.

As for the koala, he scratched his head as before, and his dazed eyes looked more and more like a real koala.

Your graves......

After a long time, he broke the silence and said.

"In other words...... We're already dead?"

"Yes." Ye Shi replied with his eyes closed.

"And how did we die?" Still reluctant, the koala asked, "There has to be a reason, right?"

"How do I know how you died," Yashi looked at him inexplicably, and said as a matter of course, "Haven't I even entered the grave yet?"

"Shhh...... yes," the koala seemed convinced, scratching the back of her head and muttering to herself, "You're not in yet."

There was no way to complain about the recruitment criteria of the People's Union Aerospace Force, Ye Shi sighed deeply, and his eyes rolled to the ceiling.

His mind was a mess now, like a ball of yarn, and he couldn't figure out where it was.

If you want to blame this game, it's too realistic.,There's not even a menu interface.,Without the V and logout function, he really can't tell whether he's in the game or really crossed.。

He certainly hoped for the former.

After all, even if they had to cross, no one wanted to cross into a tomb by themselves.

Not to mention that he is very satisfied with his current life, and he doesn't want to go to an unfamiliar environment to do it again.

But if it was in the game, he couldn't understand why he couldn't go offline, and he was even more afraid of his real body.

Hours, even more than a dozen, have passed since he first fell unconscious.

Jiujiu hasn't broken into the door to wake him up yet, so it can only be said that there may have been some accident that caused him to not wake up in reality.

Thinking about these things, Ye Shi felt his head hurt again.

The only good news now was that just before waking up, he heard the voice calling his name again.

And that cute "sneeze".

There is no doubt that it was Jiang Xuezhou's voice.

It's really complicated, and the people he wants to save have become the only comfort in his heart.

At least she's still around here......

"I think he's probably crazy." Xiao Yong, who was standing at the door, put down his arms that he was holding, shook his head and walked away.

Luo Yi didn't leave, still looking at him with a pensive face, as if he was recalling something.

Lin Youyou, who was standing next to the treatment bed, gently put his hand on Ye Shi's forehead, with a trace of worry written on his face.

"Your heart rate is unstable and your metabolism level is low, so it's best to lie down and rest......

"I don't need to rest," Night Ten underestimated, not quite used to this kind of meticulous care, and ducked to the side, "...... I don't need you to worry, you should worry about yourself."

I don't know if these people are too nervous, and they can be so calm when they learn of their deaths.

Of course, it doesn't rule out that they just take him for fun, just as players occasionally take an NPC's outrageous encounter as a pleasure.

At first, he was worried that these people would not be able to accept the cruel fact that he was dead, but it seemed that he was thinking too much.

Looking at this awkward teenager, Lin Youyou just smiled softly and took his hand back.

"We'll take care of ourselves, and of course we'll take care of you, no matter what, you're the patient."

"I'm not sick."

Ye Shi replied weakly.

He didn't want to repeat it anymore.

Especially this guy seems to treat him like a child who hasn't grown up, which makes him feel awkward.

At this time, Dr. Wu, who was squatting on the edge of the treatment bed, suddenly raised his head coldly.

"I'm probably sick......

As if he had finally come back to his senses, he stood up from the side of the treatment table, with something in his mouth in his mouth.

Lin Youyou looked at this chattering guy and raised his eyebrows, and said with a strange expression.

"Why don't you lie here for a while?"

"No ......"

Throwing away this sentence and the confused Night Ten, Dr. Wu pushed away the crowd and hurried away.

Lin Youyou sighed, raised his index finger and pressed his eyebrows, and said to the people gathered at the door of the medical room.

"My patients need to rest, so if you don't come to see the doctor, you should disperse."

It can be seen that the quality of the residents of the prosperous era is generally relatively high.

Although the people who eat melons are obviously not full yet, and they are curious about the next development when they have just eaten the wonderful place, most of them still listened to the doctor's words and did not continue to crowd at the door of the infirmary, and soon dispersed, leaving only Luo Yi standing at the door.

Lin Youyou's eyes stared at him.

"What about you? What's wrong with you?"

Luo Yi pointed to his arm that had just undergone surgery, looked at the doctor on duty in front of him and said.

"I'm here to see a doctor, so I'm going to talk to the patient by the way...... Don't worry, I won't disturb his rest."

Lin Youyou didn't speak, just looked at the patient lying on the treatment bed inquiringly.

However, the latter did not look at her, just stared intently at the door, and stubbornly repeated what he had just said.

"I repeat, I'm not sick."

"It's not up to you and me to have the final say, wait until the doctor says."

Luo Yi shrugged his shoulders, acquiescing in this sentence to agree to talk to himself, and walked into the infirmary.

Pulling a chair from the side, he walked over to the side of the treatment table and sat down, staring at the teenager lying on the bed.

"You seem to know me...... Or do I put it another way, do you know me in the future?"

"Hmm." At ten o'clock in the night, he lowered his head and stared at Luo Yi intently, although his eyes were still full of vigilance, but he didn't do it directly like before.

In fact, if you think about it calmly, no matter what kind of situation you are facing at the moment, there is no doubt about one thing.

This is no way the cruiser Orion that I bumped into in the Wasteland Age 215.

Even if you kill him, it's useless, and you won't be able to go back because of some messy space-time paradox that you touched.

This probability is not equal to 0.

It's the same as the conjecture that I "crossed over".

The most important thing now is to be calm.

and gather as much information as possible that will help you understand the current situation.

At this moment, Luo Yi didn't know what the child in front of him, who was said to be from the future, was thinking, just looked into his eyes, and suddenly spoke.

"You're pretty good."

Yashi smiled faintly.

"Passing the prize."

Luo Yi said with a smile.

"I didn't win any awards, and when I was your age, I was still wondering which school to apply for. Not to mention the ability to kill, I haven't even touched a gun, and I haven't seen it."

I don't exclude chatting with this guy, Ye Shi said casually.

"And then you signed up for military school?"

Luo Yi shook his head.

"No, I ended up choosing the environmental improvement project, and as for joining the army, it was later."

Night 10: "...... What is an environmental renovation project?"

"It's a piece of."

Luo Yi grinned and continued.

"At that time, our relationship with the colony was not so stiff, and we were still thinking about how to transform Gaia into Earth, and by the way, use the technology researched by the colony to transform several other planets in the solar system into terrestrial planets...... As it turned out, the profession was a sinkhole."

Ye Shi nodded abruptly.

Got it.

To put it simply, it's the creatures of the 22nd century.

Luo Yi looked at him and asked.

"What about you?"

Night Ten said frankly.

"Twenty-four Century...... Probably? Using our algorithm, it's the year 215 of the Wasteland Era."

Luo Yi said with a smile.

"I didn't expect the end of the world to last for so many years."

Ye Shi thought about it and said.

"It's been more than two hundred years, but it's almost over."

Luo Yi asked curiously.

"By that...... The end of the Alliance?"

Night Ten said.

"Well, it's not just the Alliance, but there are many, many people who have also made a lot of efforts...... But then again, the Alliance is meant to be an alliance of all the survivors, and it doesn't seem to make sense to dwell on who ended up in the wasteland."

Luo nodded, and suddenly said with emotion.

"Actually, when I first heard that you had sunk in the wasteland for more than 200 years, my heart was heavy, because my family is still on Earth, and they have no hope of waiting for peace in their lives. But I am a little relieved to think that more than 200 years have passed, and the future will be a young and promising young man like you...... Maybe the future won't be as bad as it seems."

After a pause, he said heartily.

"It's good, really...... It's good."

His words are from the bottom of his heart, without the slightest politeness.

Their civilization has not been destroyed, and has grown younger and more united by the apocalypse.

That's what it means.

If before embarking on the journey home, he still had a trace of doubts about the victory or defeat of the three-year war, worried that he would be greeted by a devastated ruins, then at this moment he has no worries or worries about the future.

While the process is full of twists and turns, in the end the future is bright for all of them.

Yashi smiled.

"Huh? I think it's pretty good...... It would have been pretty good."

Luo Yi raised his eyebrows and asked half-jokingly.

"Ended up meeting us?"

"I met you, to be exact," Yashi said bluntly, looking him in the eye, "You single-handedly destroyed a squad of the Academy, albeit with the help of your teammates."

Luo Yi smiled embarrassedly.

"I didn't think I still had the skills...... And what about later? You chased me who lived for more than 200 years all the way to space?"

"That sounds outrageous......

Lin Youyou pressed his eyebrows, with an expression of disbelief.

She was still more inclined to believe her common sense, this guy was frozen out of his brain because he didn't follow the strict cryo-dormancy procedure to enter the hibernation pod.

Time travel?

This kind of thing is too outrageous.

However, Ye Shi, who was lying on the treatment bed, nodded his head and said dryly.

"That's right...... Actually, this matter was not our business, but you drove the academy's research ship directly through the space junk to the synchronous orbit, and then returned to the missile cruiser that had been destroyed. We received information that the cruiser had 100,000 neutron torpedoes stored on it, or even if it didn't have that number, it wasn't much worse...... Do you know? We had just finished our final war and were about to celebrate a new era for our civilization, and this happened."

Luo looked at him stunned, and his expression gradually became serious.

"Did I tell me what I was going to do?"

Yashi pursed his lips.

"Do you need to say it? You've joined an organization called the Celestials, a group of neurotic plus KB molecules hiding on the Lagrange Point station, who, like the Enlightenment, spend all their days trying to blow everything up on the surface and reopen it."

"As for you, you're not talking nonsense with us at all, and we can all guess with our toes what you're going to do, just keep doing 200

The unfinished bombing mission for many years ago will cleanse the slime brood and the wastelanders on the ground, and then rebuild your imaginary home."

Luo Yi's face completely changed.

"Ground bombing? How come I haven't heard of it."

Lin Youyou glanced at him with a strange expression, and then looked at Ye Shi.

"I can testify that the fleet's work schedule is public, and this kind of thing can't be hidden from us."

"Maybe it's just that you don't know?" Yashi snorted through his nose, "Even our managers won't tell us everything."

Luo Yi put his hand on his chest, looked at him seriously and said.

"I can swear to you with my personality that even if you take 10,000 steps back, we are on a mission without our knowledge, and we have even committed an unforgivable crime without knowing it...... I will never continue to be an accomplice to criminals without knowing it."

Night Ten snorted.

"Who knows what you'll think 200 years from now."

Luo Yi was silent for a while and said in a low voice.

「…… You have a point, people change, but I don't believe I'll become like that."

"I'm just telling you what I saw, believe it or not," Yashi said casually, looking at the ceiling, "Of course, I actually believe what you say. I've been talking to you for so long, and I don't think you're the kind of person who can do that kind of thing, so maybe there's some misunderstanding in that."

"Thank you for believing in me," Law nodded, "but honestly, I understand your anger. In the same way, if I had traveled back in time and saw the criminal who would start the war in the future right in front of me, I might have hesitated to strangle him first...... Even if he didn't do anything at the time."

Yashi glanced at him with interest.

"Aren't you scared?"

Luo Yi asked.

"Afraid of what."

Night Ten looked at him and reminded.

"I made it clear that you are dead. The clearer the line you draw with me about 'Luo Yi', the lower the probability that you are still alive. Either that guy is your clone or it's an android."

"It's been two centuries, so it's normal to die." Luo Yi shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Besides, you just saw the wreckage of the Orion, which doesn't mean much. Maybe that was many years later? We haven't been on this ship all the time, and we haven't figured out what's going on on your side yet."

Yashi looked at him in surprise.

"You're optimistic."

Lin Youyou put his hand on his shoulder and said in a joking tone.

"After all, we're not dead, and we can't scare ourselves because of a young man's words."

"I think the same as Dr. Lin."

Luo nodded, looked at the teenager lying on the medical bed and continued.

"My last question, why did you lie in the hibernation pod? Or rather...... What happened to you before you fell unconscious?"

Whether Dr. Wu's speculation was correct or not, his intuition told him that it was all about whether they could get out of the current predicament.

There was a moment of confusion in Ye Shi's eyes.

"I...... To be honest, I don't know."

Luo Yi was stunned, glanced at Lin Youyou, and then looked at him again and asked.

"Not sure what you mean?"

"I just don't know, I should have passed out."

Ye Shi patted his head and said with a sullen expression.

"I don't have any memory of how I lay in the hibernation pod, we were hit by a neutron torpedo, the shield was so drained that I didn't even know if I was holding on, and then we crashed into the belly of the Orion wreckage."

"By the way, there was another person in the cockpit at the time, and she was a girl about my age, her name

The word is Jiang Xuezhou...... Did you see her in that research ship?"

Although he knew that this possibility was very slim, Ye Shi still cast a hopeful gaze at the two.

However, the reaction of the two made his mood sink to the bottom in an instant.

"If we're talking about the same spaceship, you're the only one in the spaceship," Luo Yi looked at him seriously and said in a deep voice, "There's only one sleeping pod in it, and the person lying in it is you."

"But it's a little weird, if you were unconscious, how did you get into the sleep pod?"

Lin Youyou pinched his chin with the knuckles of his index finger and thumb, and said seriously in thought.

"Either your brain has a memory fragment from the impact, and you don't remember how you crawled into it. Or, as you said, there's actually another person in the ship, but we can't see it."

There was silence in the infirmary.

Ye Shi suddenly felt the air around him feel cold, as if it was haunted.

There doesn't seem to be a metaphysical setting in this game?

But he really can't explain what is happening in front of him with common sense, let alone why he can't get off the line.

"Anyway, now we have two important clues. You first hit a neutron torpedo, and then you hit our ship...... Our ship of the future."

Noting down these two clues, Luo Yi stood up from his chair.

Looking at Luo Yi, who was about to leave, Lin Youyou raised his eyebrows.

"You're not seeing a doctor?"

"I've read it all."

He has two things to do right now.

One is to go to the scene of the explosion and take another look, and the other is to go to the torpedo compartment to take a look.

In addition, you have to take these two clues to the guy surnamed Wu.

Although the guy was never reliable, he was the only professional physicist on the ship.

If he couldn't even figure that guy out, he couldn't figure out who else could do it.

You can't count on yourself as a "big soldier in environmental improvement engineering", right?

Ye Shi, who was lying on the treatment bed, closed his eyes tightly, and his face turned slightly pale.

The voice came again.

And it's still those four sentences-

"Ten Nights ......"

"It's so cold here......

"Ahh

"I ......"

……

Sheriff's office on the lower deck.

Several senior officers of the first department stood in front of the monitor, staring intently at the situation in the infirmary.

Among them are the captain Zhao Tianhe, the second-in-command Wu Mengke, and the navigator and so on.

Respecting the doctor's opinion, they did not stimulate the patient, but changed to a more tactful way - Luo Yi, who arranged for the space combat team under the three departments, to ask them what they desperately wanted to know.

The two talked for a long time, from the future to the present.

And the things they said were unintentional to the speaker, but the listener was oozing a cold sweat from his back.

It is true that the Orion did not carry out the plan for the bombardment of Earth orbit, but the ship's command did receive a request for support from the Lagrange Point space station.

Intelligence has shown that most of the surface has been covered by mutant slime nests, and that if more thorough decontamination operations are not carried out, slime molds could spread to the Antarctic and Arctic circles within a decade at the latest.

Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to rebuild civilization, and even human civilization will not wait for a chance to rebuild, and will be wiped out by the children of Gaia before that.

Now that the space elevator has been destroyed, and the Zhiyuan colony ship has given up its plan to colonize alien systems regardless of the overall situation, human civilization is on the verge of destruction.

The meaning of the Lagrange point space station is obvious, anyway, the shelter plan has been launched, the nuclear bomb that should be used has long been used, and eighty percent of the survivors on the surface will not survive, so it is better to be happy and simply step on the accelerator to the end.

From the height of civilization, this is

Preserve the spark for the survival of civilization as much as possible.

The paradox, however, is that the very act of doing so has shaken the very foundations of civilization.

It is precisely for this reason that the opinions of the Federation of People's Federations and the top leaders of the Aerospace Forces are not unanimous, and there are even serious differences.

This disagreement is not new, it has existed for a long time.

This includes the core differences of the war as a whole.

Some people believe that the enemies of this war are the rebels, while others believe that Gaia is the real enemy.

Disagreements are inevitable.

As long as two people stand together, they will definitely be separated, let alone a group of people.

The final war, although provoked by the radicals, was only the most radical.

With the separation of the colonies, internal contradictions have become external contradictions, and the conservatives who have an absolute advantage at the top of the People's Federation will naturally have new positions according to the existing agenda, for example, those whose positions are on the right will become new conservatives, and those who are on the left will become new radicals.

From the position of the latter, the war is over, the rebels have been eliminated, and now it is time to think about the aftermath, as well as the creation of a new order.

This order can contain mutant slime molds, after all, it is really unrealistic to completely eliminate this kind of thing.

However, from the position of the former, it is urgent to expel the slime molds on the surface at all costs, and it is worth sacrificing so many people.

Zhao Tianhe is actually not interested in political affairs.

He is very clear about his position, he is a professional soldier, and his allegiance should be to the law...... Even if the mainstream of the entire Aerospace Forces is biased towards the side of the former.

However, even if he didn't want to choose a side, when the torrent of history swept over, he and his subordinates were forced to get involved and had to make a choice.

After all, when he received an order from the Lagrange Point Command Center, there were only two starships with interstellar navigation capabilities left in the entire Aerospace Force and even the Human Federation.

One Orion, one Gemini.

He was the only one with the most spare ammunition, compared to how little of the Twins' neutron torpedoes should have been consumed in the previous orbital bombardment of Gaia.

In other words, they are the only ones who have the ability to carry out the doomsday plan.

There is no one else......

And there is nothing to say about his choice.

He would rather aim his gun at himself, or at his allies, than at the civilians he had guarded with his life.

If he really did this, it would have been a three-year battle before it was fought in vain.

Wu Mengke, who was standing in front of the screen of the monitoring terminal, looked at the captain Zhao Tianhe who was standing on the side with a sad expression.

"This kid knows the information about the Lagrange Point station, and I don't think it's a coincidence, he may indeed be from the future."

Zhao Tianhe stared at the screen with a solemn expression and nodded slowly.

"Hmm."

Wu Mengke looked away with a complicated expression, and unconsciously clenched the armrests of the chair with both hands.

"Then we ......."

Knowing what she wanted to say, Zhao Tianhe shook his head and just stared directly at the screen intently.

"It's hard to say."

"No matter what you say, there's no doubt that you and I are still alive, and our opponents have no chance of a comeback."

"I'm actually more inclined to think that he doesn't come from our future."

"It's the future on 'another timeline.'"
