Lewis heard Olier's rhetorical "no", and a wave of anger swelled up.

He tried his best to control himself, trying not to curse this stupid black thing, but there was some sarcasm in his tone:

"Am I asking you, or are you asking me again?"

"How long has it been, why hasn't there been any news yet!?"

Hearing this, Oliel hurriedly explained:

"The man from country H we sent over has arrived in the dragon country......"

"The reason for the lack of clues, according to his analysis, this person named Lu Yun is either protected or dead."

Hearing this, Lewis raised an eyebrow, meaning to ask why Oliel had such a judgment.

At this point, Olier explains:

"He spent a lot of money and got a piece of intelligence."

"Intelligence conclusively indicates that Lu Yun had a brain tumor before he disappeared."

Hearing this, Lewis frowned.

But Olier's voice didn't stop.

"And he said that he was about to leave the Dragon Kingdom to protect the woman named Liu Haiying......"

"There's a good chance there's some clue ...... this"

Hearing this, Lewis nodded instead.

In his judgment, such a choice was undoubtedly very wise.

If the accidental death mentioned in the prophecy can really be verified, then it proves that the prophet is true.

If the woman died, but not accidentally, it proves that the prophecy is false and that the dragon kingdom is behind it.

And if that woman hadn't died......

That proves that this prophecy is completely a smoke bomb of the Dragon Kingdom, and that the prophet is irrelevant.

With that in mind, Lewis didn't say anything more and refocused his gaze on the screen in front of him.

Look at the picture of Antarctica, waiting for what might happen next.

And his hands were already unconsciously clenched into fists.

He was not as calm as his face appeared, but very nervous.

"Since the 2008 financial crisis, the speed of development of the Dragon Kingdom has been like riding a rocket ......"

"The ...... of the nuclear center"

"And the lithography machine ...... earlier this month"

"How the hell did they do it?"

"Damn it."

In 2023, after the timeline has been refreshed several times, the strength of the Dragon Kingdom is beyond doubt.

Whether it is in terms of output value or technology, the Dragon Kingdom is soaring at a strange speed.

At this point, Lewis was confronted with that prophecy......

Originally, he didn't believe that the continental shelf would be displaced, but right now, a little fear surged in his heart.

He didn't want to see that.

He hoped that the 24 hours would be spent peacefully.

But he had that strange feeling......

The Antarctic continental shelf, which is now calm, will be overturned.

And this is a big event that is bound to shake the world......

It must be directed by Long Guo.

……

……

The other side.

After leaving Pan Lishan's office on August 20, 2023, Lu Yun stepped on a distorted timeline and returned to the neutrino laboratory in 2014.

Back to the four hours before he left the office.

This is because there was another self in this room for the first three hours.

Lu Yun avoided himself, and after leaving the office, he fast-forwarded another hour and ten minutes to achieve the result he wanted.

Soon, he found Pan Lishan, who was about to leave.

When Pan Lishan saw Lu Yun appear in front of him again, his expression was a little surprised:

"What's wrong?"

"You're not ......"

But Lu Yun interrupted him, stuffed the note in his hand into his hand, and said in a low voice:

"I'll help you get ahead of time!"

It all happened too fast, too suddenly.

Pan Lishan held the note with a surprised face, and he didn't react at the first time.

But only a moment later, his body shook suddenly.

The phrase "help you advance again" immediately reminded him of that morning nineteen years ago, and remembered the words he heard when the two of them met for the first time!

Even today, this sentence still seems to ring in my ears -

"Some of the key research in your life will be a little bit ahead."

Thinking of this, how could Pan Lishan not know what was going on!?

So he also lowered his voice and asked Lu Yun with great surprise: "Is it an 'experiment'?" ”

Lu Yun nodded, and then said very quickly:

"But remember, it must be executed on August 20, 2023!"

"Remember that!"

"Whatever happens, make sure it's August 20, 2023!"

Pan Lishan was stunned, and hurriedly asked:

"What if it's delayed?"

He didn't have time to see what was written on the note, and said in a hurried voice:

"How can I guarantee to finish by that time?"

Lu Yun shook his head:

"Don't worry about ......"

"If there's a problem, I'll know......"

After saying this, he emphasized again:

"In 2023! August! 20th! ”

"It must not be advanced, nor can it be delayed!"

"It must have been within those twenty-four hours!"

Hearing this date, Pan Lishan was somewhat confused.

Although he didn't know what the reason for the experiment was to be specific to the day, based on his trust in Lu Yun, he immediately nodded:

"Understood!"

And at the moment when he nodded......

Lu Yun heard an emotionless voice ringing in his ears.

"Timeline Repair Mission Complete."

This voice sounded, making Lu Yun's heart feel as if a boulder had finally fallen, and he was much more steady.

"It's okay......"

"It's good that it's not the worst."

Lu Yun knew that if this note was handed over to Pan Lishan, he would not be able to complete the task......

Then he would have to go back and forth between August 20, 2023 and the past.

Use the "knowledge" you brought back in 2023 to fill in all the holes......

But once you enter this stage, you will push your task time to the limit.

At that point, it's easy to get out of control.

And this is also the point that Lu Yun was most worried about before taking action.

But the good thing is...... Now there is no need to worry about that.

At this time, Lu Yun looked at Pan Lishan.

It turned out that he was completely caught up in the note.

Lu Yun was used to such a picture......

So I didn't bother him anymore.

Because at this moment, Lu Yun himself also needs to think.

The experience of this mission is crucial.

At this moment, Lu Yun's mind flashed everything that he had experienced in the more than two hundred hours of this operation.

……

From the very beginning, when I made the card bug plan 2.0, everything was not so clear.

After all, you can't fully anticipate the changes that will result from refreshing the timeline.

But the direction is something that can be guessed after all.

And all this, at the beginning, still has to come from the experience summed up in the previous three missions.

1. If you complete the task by the timeline before the predicted date arrives, then the system will not forcibly interfere with the timeline.

This is the underlying logic of the completion of the bride price task and the optical technology task.

2. If you don't complete the causal connection when the prediction date comes, then the system will forcibly anchor the fact that the prediction has occurred.

It's like the mission to the First Emperor's elixir.

Based on the combination of these two points......

This is where the Card Bug Project 2.0 comes in.

To put it simply, before the system anchors it on August 20, 2023, don't think about what the system will forcibly anchor.

According to all the needs of the "continental shelf shock experiment", try to get as close as possible.

Therefore, Lu Yun kept refreshing the timeline until the timeline was brushed without brushing......

He's going to do everything he can.

If, after all this, the task is still not completed, then wait for the system to forcibly anchor the "fruit" and use the last 72 hours before the timeline breaks to send the key theories in this "fruit" back to the past.

It's all easy to say......

But now that I think about it, it seems that every step I have taken has become inevitable.

Pick again......

I should still use the same means to act.

"If I don't have full trust......"

"Not to mention this mission, the future missions will also give me a headache."

"All periods between 1995 and 2023 may become unstoppable......"

"What about a different approach?"

"How about not using a time loop?"

"No......"

Lu Yun self-denied this idea:

"If I had demonstrated my ability to traverse the timeline at that time, whatever method I used, it would have led to uncertainty about the outcome at this point and now."

There is no mistake

"If Pan Lishan had known at that time that I could travel through the timeline......"

"Can he act with such urgency?"

Lu Yun knew that there was no need to doubt the enthusiasm in Pan Lishan's heart......

But in timeline traversal, knowing and not knowing, after all, are still two different things.

There is a world of difference between an urgent mindset and a relaxed mindset.

And at this point, Lu Yun didn't want to take any risks.

But that's just the beginning.

Continue combing along the timeline......

Next, there is a high-frequency refresh of quantum physics research.

And this is also inseparable.

"Fortunately, the theory of quantum physics has been brushed to the ...... of brushing"

"Otherwise, you might not even be able to understand the note at this time."

"I don't understand what is written on that note, but if it is something that can be explained by a note, it must be the core formula of the whole experiment......"

"Incomprehensible ......"

"That means losing everything."

In addition to that, there is the injection of those two trillion dollars.

Without these solid assets, the completion of the nuclear center would not have been a five-year or six-year time span.

In the midst of the tsunami of the global financial crisis, even a complete strike is likely.

And without these foundations, even if the system forcibly anchors the "fruit" on August 20, 2023, even if it brings back this crucial formula......

It is also difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

Now that I think about it, I'm still a little scared.

"Fortunately, I got 360 billion knives in one go."

"Originally, I was wondering if it was a bit ruthless."

"But now it seems ......"

"That's just right!"

And at the end of the day......

Ultimately, the most critical focus......

It still fell on that note.

The note itself was as light as a feather......

But in fact, everything Lu Yun did on the timeline was for the sake of its existence at this last moment.

And the existence of this note, in turn, makes everything he does meaningful.

These two bite each other and are cause and effect of each other.

Just like the Taiji diagram, some of you have me, and I have your meaning.

And add it all up......

I finally heard that cold voice!

Only then did we finally reach the causal closed loop!

Completed this task that is enough to make the dragon kingdom take off!

……

Thinking of this, Lu Yun's mood was still a little complicated.

And the complicated feelings at this time are not only from the success of the mission.

There's more to it.

This line of work spanned 28 years.

Look at history from this moment under your feet......

It's hard to put into words.

sighing, some sighing, and admiration for the power of time.

Seeing that this land is becoming richer and stronger...... Of course, there was another joy surging in Lu Yun's heart.

He thought that everything he had paid for was worth it.

However, this kind of dedication, compared with the one in front of him, seems a little insignificant.

Lu Yun's eyes refocused and looked at Pan Lishan.

He was looking at the note cautiously, the look in his eyes, as if he wanted to get into that formula.

I have indeed given a lot of ......

However, Professor Pan's dedication ......

Be far more than you think.

For Lu Yun, it was two hundred hours of almost sleepless busyness.

And for Pan Lishan......

He is the two hundred hours of Lu Yun......

It was expanded to twenty-eight years.

From studying abroad without sleeping or eating, to working hard.

Design and planning of the nuclear center......

Publication of new research in quantum physics......

He even single-handedly dragged up the education level of quantum physics in the entire Dragon Kingdom!

The calluses on the side of his right middle finger were frighteningly thick.

How many words has he really written over the years?

How many calculations were made?

Even if you look at it, you can feel that tiredness.

But Lu Yun knew it before.

If you let Pan Lishan choose again.

He didn't hesitate either.

He will still choose to return to China.

He will still choose to sleep at night.

Today......

Lu Yun was still particularly impressed by Pan Lishan's answer that day.

When I asked him if he could do it in the face of such difficulties, he said:

"I have to do it."

It's not a can, it's not a possibility, it's a must.

Even if he asks a thousand or ten thousand more times, he will definitely give the same answer.

It's not about the timeline.

It has something to do with him being Pan Lishan.

At this moment, 2014, the neutrino experimental base has just been completed.

In the midst of the noise of running and instrument testing......

Lu Yun and Pan Lishan seemed to be isolated from the world.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Pan Lishan broke away from that formula, and he suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Lu Yun.

His lips moved, trying to say something, but he didn't say it.

But Lu Yun knew what he was going to say, so he smiled bluntly:

"I don't produce knowledge, I'm just a porter of knowledge."

"You're welcome."

"That's what belongs to you."

The year, 2014.

That popular advertising slogan appeared in 2008, and it will spread to 2023 and beyond.

Therefore, of course, Pan Lishan could understand what Lu Yun said at this time.

Although the mood is exciting at this time, it can even be called a long-lost excitement...... But he laughed anyway.

"Old Lu, old Lu......"

"You......"

At this point, he suddenly stopped.

Because the figure in front of me has disappeared.

Pan Lishan looked a little dazed......

He looked around, then gave up looking.

At this moment, he pondered the words that seemed to be a joke again, and looked at the familiar handwriting on the note......

His eyes flickered, as if he understood something.

……

……

At this time, Lu Yun had already found a corner where no one was around.

He didn't want to say goodbye.

It's not that I won't see you again.

Thinking of this, Lu Yun was suddenly stunned again, and his thoughts jumped out of his mind......

Li Bai seems to be very difficult to see again.

However, he thought about it again, if he completed all the tasks, he still had a chance to return to the Tianbao Year before.

The next time I go to Datang, I must really have a good drink with Li Bai, last time I was too utilitarian and didn't drink well at all.

Or, pull everyone down for a modern treat?

Suddenly, that image came to mind......

The corners of Lu Yun's mouth hooked up a smile.

At this time, the task had just been completed, and he was also a little relaxed.

But after all, there was a new mission immediately after that, and he didn't have time to indulge in such fantasies anymore.

At this time, it is in the unmanned shelter of the neutrino laboratory......

The time gate opened in front of Lu Yun's eyes.

He stepped into the blue.

At this point, the timeline has returned to a plateau.

At the same time that parallel memories began to pour into his brain, the smile on Lu Yun's face suddenly froze......

Because the cold voice of the system sounded in his ears again.

But that voice was not a mission item that Lu Yun was familiar with......

Nor is it an update for the remaining time......

It's a brand new announcement like you've never heard before!

"The last task of the first phase is on."

"The host is ...... after completing the task: [On September 1, 2023, the dragon country genome research has completed a breakthrough, and the expected life expectancy of the dragon country has been extended by 20%"

"The second phase of the system will be opened."

Lu Yun was a little confused.

Stage 2!?

What do you mean!?
