Chapter 328: The Road to the Other Shore (End of Volume 5)
It's five o'clock in the morning on April 1, the same time as three hundred years ago.
At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and the morning star in the distance was still shining, but there were already many people on the Temple of Heaven in Daqian.
Although Shen Yu said that there is no need for cumbersome ceremonies, whether it is the speaker, the president, or many people, they have come here.
Everyone looked at Shen Yu in silence, including Yang Wanqing.
Yang Wanqing didn't get angry with Shen Yu this week, she still happily enjoyed the days with Shen Yu every day.
"If I were you, I would do the same."
She said this, but her smile was full of sadness.
The man is as dead as iron, and this one who has no conscience, as if he had been a long time ago, chose one thing, hit it with iron, and never looked back.
Even if she showed up, she couldn't change his decision.
Although he said that he would come back if he could, it was like before, and who knows how many years from now?
At the same time, the tens of millions of people in Daqian are ready for this moment.
Or sit in front of the TV and watch the live broadcast.
Or a family sits together and waits for that moment to come.
Or walk out the window and look to the east.
Or...... I opened the app and finally made up my mind to take out a loan first.
This is the darkest hour before dawn falls, only the torches are hunting on the Temple of Heaven, everything is arranged according to the ancient law, and Shen Yu, who is wearing a dragon robe, seems to have traveled through time and space, returned to the present from three hundred years ago, and came to the incense case.
The heirloom jade seal is placed there, shining with a warm light.
It has been reported many times this week, and Shen Yu will use this object as a medium to activate the Great Miracle.
The time has come to half past five in the morning.
The next moment, a golden light fell from the sky.
……
Many years later, Wang Tianming recalled the scene at that moment and was still full of sighs.
Before, everyone had a question, what if Director Shen said that the great miracle had begun, but what if he lied to people?
It's like a battle royale where you think you're making a movie, but it's actually a live-action battle royale?
However, on the appointed day, at the time of the promise, he realized that everything was true.
He thought that he would stay in the apartment building, after all, there are beautiful female college students upstairs and downstairs here, and once something happens, he can contribute his strong chest, but when he confirmed that Director Shen really didn't lie, he still returned to his hometown and was with his parents.
Farewell, my two kilograms of medicine, that thing he didn't dare to bring back, alas......
On April 1st, everyone got up early, the whole family woke up at three o'clock, my mother cooked and made dumplings, my father cleaned the room with my sister, and finally everyone sat together in a reunion, waiting for that moment to come.
Yes, when the Holy Emperor Shen Yu said that the first price to pay for using the Great Miracle was him, the Great Qian, who was originally boiling and about to come with a storm, suddenly calmed down.
This week, in addition to being busy, Daqian has become more calm, and everyone is silently preparing, just like Wang Tianming, who also applied for a project from his mentor, and returned to school after the day of the miracle.
There are a lot less rumors on the Internet all of a sudden, and everyone is thinking about their fate, their future fate, and what they are going to do.
Or...... We really should cherish these four years and spend a period of passionate struggle!
Then, the golden light flashed, and he found himself in a pure white space, and in front of him, there was a person Shen Yu, who was inviting him, to sit on the sofa, and this scene was not the scene where the Matrix Morpheus spoke to the male protagonist?
"Hello, Your Excellency, this is my message, welcome to the virtual era."
Behind Shen Yu, there is a big jade seal, the jade seal is slowly turning, there are eight characters on it, ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity.
Wang Tianming sat down respectfully, waiting for this person's narration.
That person is like a character in the Matrix, telling everyone about the future.
What he didn't know was that this thing did not belong to the Great Miracle, but it belonged to a part of the Great Miracle that Shen Yu colluded with.
This time the Great Miracle belonged to the joint law enforcement led by the Jade Seal, the Heavenly Remnant Gate, the Holy Grail and the One Second Assistance, so after Shen Yu obtained everyone's consent, he added the Holy Grail ability to the Great Miracle.
Because it is in the simulated world, in the great miracle inside itself, the use of golden crystals is much cheaper than in the official world.
For the first time, three small crystals (except for one second, the Heavenly Remnant Gate, the Holy Grail and the Jade Seal, one for each person), left a speech for all the characters who entered the Great Wonder.
The content of the speech is very simple, welcome to the virtual world, I hope you like it, and once again said that if you encounter a situation that you really can't stand it, suicide can be immediately detached, open your eyes, and return to reality.
The second time it comes true, three small crystals, in the virtual world, give everyone a countdown time to come true in front of their eyes, from now on, in the corner of everyone's vision, there will be a small countdown, the background of the design plan is the jade seal, to remind everyone, this is the virtual era, of course, there is also a use, that is, let everyone associate the jade seal with the virtual era.
These two behaviors can only be done with three small crystals in the virtual world, in Shen Yu's own miracle, if in reality, it will take a much, much higher price.
Of course, this kind of hint makes everyone understand that this is a virtual era, and later back to reality, and also know that everything is different, and not to be confused with the real and the false.
The third time it came true, it took five small crystals, one for each of the Heavenly Remnant Gate Holy Grails, and three jade seals.
"Guys, I'm disgusted with daddy people, keep reminding everyone that the time is almost up, ruining everyone's game experience, but what...... I still want to give you an exam question. ”
"An asteroid is coming towards the Blue Star, don't worry, this is virtual, the position trajectory is as follows, it will hit the Blue Star in three years, ending everyone's virtual world ahead of schedule, of course, if the Blue Star people work together to develop science and technology, this asteroid can still be destroyed, and everyone has another year."
Shen Yu had a mischievous expression on his face, after all...... You can't let these people live happily for four years, right? You have to give the leaders of the big cadres or the world a reason to whip everyone, right?
When Australia was just beginning to be developed, someone went ambitiously, and he brought a shipload of slaves, and all kinds of servants, butlers, and so on, and then those people got off the ship and ran away without a trace, leaving the ambitious lord trembling with anger.
The bigwigs hope that Shen Yu can point out a direction, and Shen Yu also hopes that everyone can complete this exam question well.
The project of destroying asteroids can ensure the development of Daqian's scientific and technological direction in the direction of aerospace, military, artificial intelligence, etc., instead of taking the route of Resident Evil and artificial maids!
Lao Tzu's miracle is not for you to play to death! Hurry up and get me high!
Fourth...... Hope you all have a great time, thank you. ”
Mr. Shen's photo disappeared without a trace at this moment, and Wang Tianming and his family returned to reality, looking at everything around them, extremely real, whether it is pastries, tea, temperature and taste are exactly the same, open the mobile phone to look at the bank card, look at their private secret space, everything is the same.
But at this moment, everyone knows that everything is different.
The translucent time countdown under the corner of the eye reminds us that this is the virtual era!
Four years, congratulations on having fun.
At this time, during the TV broadcast, Shen Yu, who should have been standing in the bright light, suddenly disappeared.
"Respect the Holy Emperor Shen Yu!"
At this moment, Wang Tianming raised his wine glass, and at this moment, countless people raised their wine glasses.
A new era has arrived.
……
Four years later.
At 5:15 a.m. on the morning of April 1, Sun Chenzhong looked at the remaining fifteen minutes of the countdown, looked at John who was sitting not far away, and sighed.
It stands to reason that he should tear this guy apart, but in the past four years, the two of them have become real New Year's friends.
The past four years have been really exciting, but no matter how happy the days are, they will come to an end, but he can proudly say that he has absolutely no regrets in the past four years.
"I hope this can continue......"
He sighed, looked at the towering buildings outside the window, looked at the flying machines in the sky, and watched the fireworks blooming in the sky, but his heart was extremely melancholy.
Although there are still bars that say that it is actually Director Shen who projects things on everyone's retina, in fact, everyone is still in the real world, and there is no backtracking in the near future......
Although it is said that most people are still reluctant to die, they are afraid that all this is actually a lie.
But what's the point?
A year ago, Yang Wanqing's heroic sacrifice was made.
The exam question given by Director Shen, an asteroid that will hit the blue star, has made countless people worry from the beginning.
In order to solve this problem, the brain cells of countless scientists were exhausted, but they were never able to give a correct answer, until Yang Wanqing, the first female president of Daqian, said that she did not need to think about the return trip, and she got the answer.
Although Shen Yu previously said that he would not participate in the presidential election, and suggested that the current president, after the start of the virtual world, Mr. President declared a state of emergency and continued to be president for four years.
However, when everyone actually entered the virtual world, although the president declared a state of emergency, he said that everything should be elected.
He really wanted to do it, but he knew he couldn't.
Mr. Shen gave him the greatest face, and now, he has to be humble, not to mention that the bigwigs in all aspects want him to express the greatest respect for Mr. Shen or Ms. Yang Wanqing, and Yang Wanqing's identity has been leaked out, everyone knows that three hundred years ago, when Shen Yu was plotting to usurp the throne, he had bad intentions towards Empress Yang (Shen Yu shouted at you fart!). Oh no, there's an old monster who's survived to the present.
Of course, this is just a joke, but the people want to give Director Shen a compensation.
He has done great miracles for everyone at the cost of his own life, so what can we do for him?
Although Mr. President was reluctant, but he still chose the right path rationally, the parliament passed a resolution to allow Yang Wanqing to replace Shen Yu to participate in the next election, and soon after Yang Wanqing became president with 86% of the votes, at the same time, because the country entered a state of emergency, and the royal family did not exist, the parliamentary bigwigs stood by and fueled the troubles, so her power was unprecedentedly strong.
She is fierce, cunning, tax-collecting fierce and impersonal, she has only been in power for a year, and countless people regret it incomparably, this is not a gentle and amiable big sister at all, this is a female tyrannosaurus!
Although there were not many people she shot, countless people were imprisoned in the hard labor field by her, and countless people were cleaned up by her in various names.
It was really a dark era, Yang Wanqing's support rate fell all the way, it can be said that if this was not a virtual era, the people below would have rebelled a long time ago!
Have you ever seen a superpower on the blue star, with five circuit breakers in the stock market in two months? Have you ever seen a nuclear-powered money printing press go crazy? Have you ever seen a president who said this is life?
This time, the female president of Daqian really opened everyone's eyes!
The currency of Daqian has been inflated by 53 times in a year!
Just like Germany after World War I, continuous inflation finally sucked up the last drop of blood of the entire country, Yang Wanqing did the same drastic and unreasonable as human rights!
Someone has to stand up and carry this black cauldron, right?
Back then, everyone who persuaded the president to abdicate said to the president like this, saying that no one can carry this black pot except Yang Wanqing!
But...... She also leads by example.
The asteroid flying towards the blue star rushed over, and the twelve spaceships built by gathering the world's manpower and material resources met it, but because of the harsh environment and other factors, only five of them were able to successfully land in the end, and there were still countless problems in the process of drilling holes, and even because of the harsh electromagnetic environment and the rotation of the asteroid, the detonation of the nuclear bomb had to be operated manually.
There is no so-called goodbye in the movie, and there is no heroic message sent back to Blue Star, and there is no fight for me to detonate to leave a way for others to survive, or to destroy an asteroid at the last second.
"We're not going back."
This is the words put forward by Yang Wanqing before she went to the sky, and it is also the standard set when building the spaceship.
The resources and time on Earth limit the number of ships that can be built, and at the same time, if you don't need to think about the return of the spaceship, you can more than double the range (such as food and water can be reduced, not to mention the escape pods and so on), and you can take more machines.
Yang Wanqing coldly chose this most extreme construction plan, but it was the one with the highest success rate in terms of probability.
They boarded the spaceship, they piloted the spaceship, and they rushed into space with them, the most powerful group of grandmasters and innate masters in the world, a group of people who were usually hated and feared by ordinary people, to save the world.
They didn't expect to come back!
Then, the blasting succeeded!
On that day, countless people saw the brilliant fireworks in space and witnessed the overwhelming meteor shower.
Our civilization has been saved, albeit in the virtual world.
That female tyrant, she saved the world.
And on this day, it also answered the question, what is the use of the transcendent for civilization?
The answer is that together with ordinary people, we can save the world!
"By the way, what do you want to do when you go back?"
Another three minutes passed, and Sun Chenzhong looked at John and asked.
John...... This once criminal and notorious terrorist turned around and cooperated with Daqian and became the most notorious slave trader and mine owner in the Black Continent.
"My reputation has stinked, but I still want to go home, but ...... I don't regret it, I just hope that you will fulfill your promises instead of ......"
John sighed, not wanting to remember the bloody past.
"Yes, so am I, I dare to divorce my wife...... Alas, do you say I'm crazy in my head? In the past four years, I have been licking more and more dogs, but I have done the opposite, alas......"
Sun Chenzhong sighed and sighed again.
The hour hand ticked to the last second, and the hunting team outside the door was ready.
Yes, if at the last second, there is no return to the past, then, John, the king of the Black Continent, must be eliminated.
"Respect the Holy Emperor Shen Yu!"
"May humanity be eternal, and may the world be peaceful."
Both men raised their glasses at the same time.
It was at this moment that yellow light fell from the sky again, shattering everything around it.
The day of the Great Miracle is over.
……
At 5:301 a.m. on April 1, 307, countless people fell into a panic at this moment.
Although I have been mentally prepared, I ...... How can you not get excited when you find that your big belly is gone, your missing arms and legs are back, or even after years of hard work in the ground and dying, you suddenly return to your cozy cabin?
Not to mention, many people who were already dead suddenly recovered.
A moment ago, someone pulled the trigger, and a second ago, the knife was inserted into her body in an incomparably painful way, and a moment ago, she thought she was really dead.
Yang Wanqing's last memory is the scene when she pressed the button to detonate the nuclear bomb in a cave three hundred meters underground, at that moment, she didn't think about whether the asteroid could be destroyed, but about that hateful villain!
I knew that you wanted me to be president, and I knew that your heart was dark!
The moment she pressed the button, a tear fell from the corner of her eye.
Then he opened his eyes, but what he saw was Shen Yu with a smile on his face.
Her true qi can feel that there is a real person in front of her now, and she can even smell his breath, as well as the reluctant affection in his eyes.
Countless joys welled up in her heart, and she stretched out her hand to him, wanting to hug him, but ...... Her arms flew into the air and rushed over his body.
"Goodbye, love."
That was the last paragraph he left, his figure, turned into a golden foam, disappeared into the air, leaving behind ...... Only Yang Wanqing's tears.
In the past three years, she has been cursed and hated by countless people, but she never bows her head.
In the deep uninhabited space, on the deserted meteorite, under the cave three hundred meters underground, she shed the first tears of those three years, and then ...... Finally, when time goes back, it finally falls.
The farthest distance in the world is me and you.
Although at the last moment, Shen Yu also opened his hand.
Shen Yu actually deceived Yang Wanqing.
Although he will be ejected, although he has not participated in these four years, he will be a second after the great miracle happens.
Because at this time, there is a bug in the whole thing, because if he is ejected, then who will use the miracle and maintain it? Without Shen Yu as the master, how could the jade seal evolve into the Yellow Dragon Cup?
However, if Shen Yu is not allowed to use the Great Miracle, then may I ask, does the virtual world count as time? After all, the normal world is just a moment, the god of time, you come out to reason, is it your fault or my fault?
Shen Yu mocked the time fiercely, and also used this bug to let the Yellow Dragon Cup be completed.
It's like four years in the virtual world for ordinary people.
However, he could only stay for a second.
However, this could not be explained to her, because ...... It's too cumbersome to explain, or rather, can't be explained.
My dear, I stayed for one more second for you......
Goodbye, Wanqing, we'll meet one day.
Volume 5, The Ticket to the Other Shore Ends.
Read Volume 6, One Second War, aka, Captain America vs. The Avengers or Captain America vs. Hulk, Black Widow, Scarlet Witch......
I hope you can help promote this book, after all, the results are really bad.
Thank you.
