The only thing that is unstoppable in the universe is time, which is like a sharp blade, silently cutting through everything hard and soft, constantly moving forward, nothing can make its path appear to be the slightest bumpy, but it changes everything.

After operating the Keiko Yamasugi incident, Li Yang turned his head and started his last project before the second hibernation with Wang Miao, improving the design of pilotable space armor on the basis of the external mechanical auxiliary equipment in the human physique enhancement plan proposed before the last hibernation.

The space armor is equipped with a jet device to support a single pilot to fly in space, with a minimum flight speed of Mach 5-10, and the weapon is mainly a particle beam weapon, and no longer uses conventional gunpowder weapons.

This plan was also recognized by the PDC, and under the recommendation of Li Yang, it was again led by Wang Miao, and the space elevator project led by Wang Miao has been perfected and only needs to be built according to demand.

As for the genetic improvement of human physical fitness, this plan was basically impossible to achieve for the time being, and in the end, human biologists declared the project a failure, so humans can only choose to improve human survival through mechanical assistance methods.

Subsequently, Li Yang told Wang Miao to make a pistol and ammunition for him, as for the reason for needing, Li Yang did not tell him, but asked him to hand it over to his descendants to pick it up when Li Yang woke up in the future. (That's right, Li Yang wants to kill the Virgin Mary in the future, in order not to expose himself in the future, and to be more hidden, Li Yang chose to let Wang Miao make him a gun in private.) ）

When everything was ready, Li Yang once again embarked on the road of hibernation.

……

In the same year of the Mercury nuclear test, Chang Weisi retired. In his last appearance in the media, he frankly admitted that he had no confidence in victory in the war, but this did not affect the high opinion of history on the work of the first commander of the Space Forces. This heavy workload, which had been in a state of anxiety for many years, took a toll on his health, and he died at the age of sixty-eight, with the general still very conscious as he lay dying, and repeated the name of Zhang Beihai.

Wu Yue spent the rest of his life in a state of misery and confusion, and he participated in the human memorial project for more than ten years, but he did not find spiritual comfort in it, and died alone at the age of seventy-seven. Like Chang Weisi, he also recited the name of Zhang Beihai in his final moments, a strong warrior who is hibernating across time, and pinning their common hopes for the future.

Say, who served two consecutive terms as Secretary-General of the United Nations, launched the Human Remembrance Project after leaving office, with the aim of comprehensively collecting materials and commemorative objects of human civilization, and finally sending them into space in unmanned spacecraft.

The most influential part of the project was an activity called "Human Diary", for which many websites were set up to allow as many people as possible to record their daily lives in words and images as part of the materials of civilization.

At one point, the Human Diary website had as many as two billion users, making it the largest body of information ever on the Internet. Later, the Council on Planetary Defense, believing that the Human Memorial Project might be fueling defeatist sentiments, adopted a resolution to halt its further development, even equating it with fugitivism.

But Say continued his personal efforts for the cause until his death at the age of eighty-four.

When Garnin and Kanter retired, they both made the same choice: to go into seclusion in the Nordic Garden of Eden, where Luo Ji the Facer had lived for five years, and they were never seen again, and the exact date of their death was not even known, but one thing is certain, they both lived a long life, and it is said that both men lived past a hundred years without illness.

Dr. Albert Ringer and General Fitzroy both lived to be in their 80s, and saw the successful networking of the Hubble-3 space telescope with a lens diameter of 100 meters and Li Yang's detection system, and saw the three-body planet through it.

But they never saw the trimaran and the probes that were already flying ahead, and they did not wait for them to pass through the third "snowfield".

The lives of ordinary people continue and end in the same way. Among the three old neighbors of the North Star, Miao Fuquan was the first to pass away, at the age of seventy-five, he really asked his son to bury himself in an abandoned mine shaft more than 200 meters deep, and his son blew up the wall of the shaft according to his will, and at the same time erected a tombstone on the ground for mourning.

According to his father's will, the descendants of the generation before the Battle of Doom must remove the tombstones, and if humanity wins, the tombstones must be restored in their original places. In fact, less than half a century after his death, the area above the abandoned mine was desertified, and in the long yellow sand, the tombstone had long been gone, the location of the abandoned mine was lost, and no one of the descendants of the Miao family bothered to find it.

Zhang Yuanchao died of illness at the age of eighty like an ordinary person, and was cremated like an ordinary person, and his ashes were placed in an ordinary square on a long shelf in the cemetery.

Yang Jinwen lived to be ninety-two years old, and the alloy container containing the ashes flew to the vast universe outside the solar system at the speed of the third universe, which cost him all his savings.

Ding Yi has survived, and after the breakthrough in controlled nuclear fusion technology, he turned to theoretical physics research, looking for a way to get rid of the interference of intelligent particles in high-energy particle experiments, but nothing has been achieved.

After the age of seventy, like other physicists, he was completely hopeless about the possibility of a breakthrough in physics. He went into hibernation and planned to wake up in the time of the Doomsday War, with the only hope being able to see for himself what the super technology of the Three-Body World looked like in his lifetime.

A century after the emergence of the Three-Body Crisis, people who had lived in the Golden Age passed away. The so-called golden age, refers to the beginning of the eighties of the last century to the end of the three-body crisis, this era has been constantly recalled in the future, the old people who have experienced this good years like ruminants continue to spit out that memory, chew sweetly, and always add a sentence at the end: "Alas, why don't you know how to cherish it at that time?" ”

And the young people who listened to them were full of jealousy, and at the same time doubted: did the fabulous peace, prosperity and happiness, the carefree of paradise, really exist?

With the departure of the old people, the Gold Coast, which has gradually disappeared, has completely disappeared into the smoke and waves of history. Now, the ship of human civilization has sailed lonely into the vast ocean, looking around, there are only boundless treacherous waves, and no one knows whether the other side really exists.
