Section 319 Future
Although Wang Qinian had a strange temperament, he still had the same expectations as ordinary people. If it weren't for this damn war, the old fat man might have retired, stayed at home to raise flowers and plant grass, practice Tai Chi on weekdays, and walk his dogs. Of course, there must be a young and beautiful wife at home, Yeying.
Su Hao fell into silence.
Every line on his face seemed to be fixed and could not be pulled by the nerves to soften and change. Su Hao didn't know how to speak. It was not that Wang Qinian's question had no answer, but that he really didn't want to tell the future world, and completely wipe out the hopes of those who had hoped.
It's really cruel to do that.
However, some things have to be said. Although no one wants to hear the answer full of sadness and pain with his own ears.
"The evolution speed of mutated creatures is much faster than expected. In the fourteenth year after the Black Era, their mutations have unimaginable leaps. Crystals appear in all monsters, and a considerable number of them are yellow crystals with stronger energy reactions. Their skin is more resilient, their physiques are larger, their claws and teeth are sharper, their attacks are stronger, and their speed is more agile. Our troops have suffered heavy casualties. The soldiers killed more than 5.8 million that year, and all war zones are in a state of collapse. Although the frontline troops have given priority to the configuration of energy potions, the casualties rate remains high. As a last resort, the military can only order to abandon all small abandoned cities that have been captured, and the entire army relies on base cities set up in various places to concentrate its efforts to defend."
"Those monsters are affected by the power of the tide and continue to rush out from abandoned cities. Each "moon tide" will cause tens of thousands of casualties. Compared with soldiers, the death rate of refugees living in the wild is higher. In order to change this situation, the military decided to release the supply of first-level enhancement agents. Civilians can obtain exchanges by turning over crystals, silver bones, designated types of mutant biological skins, glands and other substances. Especially in the "Temporary Arms Act" launched later, it also clearly stated that civilians can obtain more powerful standard weapons."
"We have been ongoing war. Every "moon tide" of mutant creatures will be defeated, and the military headquarters will be weaker and weaker. In the past "moon tide", several evolved people will appear more or less. However, the military headquarters has never put them into battle. In order to supplement the troops with heavy casualties, a large number of civilians were summoned, and the number of refugees wandering in the wild was greatly reduced. People all know what the so-called "fighting" is. It is just a way to block new recruits in front, and use veterans with practical experience to support the mutant creatures, supplemented by mobile armored troops and light tanks to siege mutant creatures. In this way, the more new recruits die, the more combat effectiveness of the troops has decreased. By the year I left, the proportion of veterans in each combat division on the eastern front was less than 5%, and the average shortage rate reached 52%. In the past, the number of reorganized divisions with more than 20,000 soldiers was mostly only about seven or eight thousand."
"Refugees have become a very valuable resource. In order to get them, various bases and cities have attracted refugees with various welfare measures, such as ration of food on time, providing a stable living environment, etc. These methods have no effect on refugees. In order to escape the war, many refugees entered mountainous areas and rarely visited areas to rebuild residences. In order to supplement the increasingly scarce soldiers, the military department ordered refugees in various areas to be captured and severely punished civilians who refused to obey the recruitment. This will of course arouse resistance, and more and more people are killed.
"At that time, the situation was similar all over the world. Especially in India, the situation of the war had deteriorated to a point where it was difficult to maintain. In order to ensure combat effectiveness, the military invested a lot of money to develop the combat robot and biological replicator projects. After actual verification, the former was proven to have a certain combat effect, but it could not play a decisive role. Although the latter could inject potions to obtain strengthening power, reaching the same or even stronger effect as human soldiers, the life cycle of replicators was very short, especially after special cultivation, which injected a large number of nutrient-induced elevation agents from the embryo period, the maximum life span was only fifteen months."
"Many people are pessimistic and disappointed with the future. From within the army to outside the base city, there are different voices asking for the abolition of the Military Council Committee and the more effective supreme authority. After killing many people, the objections still cannot be eliminated. As a last resort, the military headquarters announced a reorganization. In three years, they changed several names. "Supreme Military Group", "Temporary Cooperation Parliament", "Wartime Command" and so on... But in exchange, those who hold power are still those who hold power, even the minority members who temporarily added were all trusted people who were placed in. The generals' ranks are getting higher and higher, and from the generals in the early stages of the virus outbreak, they have continuously added first-level generals and generals, and later marshals. The officers in the army have also added captains and colonels, as well as generals at the non-commissioned level, as well as generals at the non-commissioned level, as well as generals at the non-commissioned level, as well as generals at the non-commissioned level, special technical non-commissioned officers, special assistant staff officers... Haha, these practices are all self-deception, and we have never won even once again."
"You were right to propose the destruction of the time machine data at that time. You were right: if you knew that there was such a super-technical machine that could leave the present and return to the past, it would soon trigger a full-scale war between countries and forces. Only by completely destroying it and cutting off everyone's hope can you enter the battle without any retreat."
Speaking of this, a hot light was released in Su Hao's eyes. He kept staring at Wang Qinian, staring at the time machine drawings placed at the old fat man's hand, and asked extremely urgently: "Please tell me where did this drawing come from?"
Wang Qinian leaned back on the chair, his expression looking a little dissatisfied. He was trying to digest what Su Hao had just said and find ingredients for utilization.
After a few minutes, the old fat man suddenly laughed "hahahaha".
"How did the drawings come from? I knew you would ask this. Well, this thing is my latest invention. You know, time traveling through time will inevitably have an impact on the existing time and space. In the future world, for some reason, I may have been invented and created several decades later than now. However, I have always been very interested in time traveling through time. So... just last month, I drew this drawing casually... don't believe it? There is also my autograph on it. Look, look at it, is it my name?"
The old fat man picked up the drawings and pointed at the messy signature in the lower right corner in an exaggerated manner.
Su Hao's eyes showed a strange smile. His eyes were all focused on Wang Qinian's face, without any deviation: "Are you kidding?"
The fat dean put away his smile and said seriously: "Do I need to make such a joke? Let me tell you, this is the hard work I have accumulated over many years of experience and spent a lot of time to make. This is the greatest invention in human history, and it is me... Oh, don't hit me, it hurts so much, help me----"
The old fat man was bragging without blushing his face and was beaten by Ye Ying, and he slammed his fingers on his head with a few violent chests. He immediately pushed back with a cruel method of showing a few bright red meat buns.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. With his IQ that is not much smarter than a pig, how could he invent the time machine?"
Ye Ying took back his fierce and cold gaze from Wang Qinian who was screaming in his head, rubbed his fingers slowly, and said to Su Hao in a cold and hard tone: "The drawings were obtained from the Atlantis people. The previous batch of aid technology they gave includes this drawing."
Atlantis?
Assistance technology?
The two words that emerged from Ye Ying's mouth quickly turned into two huge question marks in Su Hao's mind.
He couldn't help but turn his gaze to Wang Qinian.
The old fat man was beaten very badly. Ye Ying's thunderous thunder hit him hard without any defense. Although it was not fatal, it would not cause actual damage. Wang Qinian still felt it hurt and kept covering his head and curled up in the chair.
"Okay, I admit that I didn't invent that thing, it was the work of those monster aliens."
Wang Qinian obviously did not dare to disobey Ye Ying. However, the distorted painful expression on his face was obviously also a deliberate appearance. The two of them seemed to be happy with this little game where you beat me and had already formed a tacit understanding. When the occasional jokes diluted the excessively heavy atmosphere of conversation, the old fat man slowly rubbed the red envelopes that emerged from his forehead, raised his eyes, looked at Su Hao, and said, "They gave me the drawings, that's it."
Su Hao's face was full of incredible expression: "This, how is this possible? That's the design drawing of the time shuttle machine. Various technologies and energy use are already very mature, how can they..."
"Don't ask so many whys."
Wang Qinian raised his hand and stopped Su Hao's unfinished words: "I know no more inside information about this matter than you. In fact, my thoughts are similar to yours. I also doubted why the Atlantis people came up with this drawing's real purpose? Because, according to the relevant agreements signed during the first contact, they have the obligation to provide us with technical assistance and to supplement the lack of combat power in a way that strengthens technology. But the problem is: the time shuttle obviously cannot achieve this effect."
Su Hao stared at Wang Qinian for nearly half a minute before slowly asking: "Technical assistance? What's going on
"Viral outbreaks are not normal natural phenomena, and that kind of virus does not belong to any category of earth products. Although we resisted and could only allow the Atlantis to release the virus at will, we made it clear when we first contacted that if the other party must do this, we must give us enough technological compensation. At least, humans will not be extinct because of the spreading virus."
Wang Qinian's expression slowly became sad: "That is our last and only struggle. All heads of state agreed that if the Atlantis refuse the agreement, we will release smallpox, Ebola, plague and mutant influenza viruses in advance worldwide. At the same time, all nuclear countries launch all nuclear warheads in stock to freely attack any city on earth. In particular, the six major research member states also proposed to launch super-large-equivalent missiles, blow up the moon, make a large number of debris enter the atmosphere, fall into the ground, cause the earth's magnetic poles to exchange, and achieve the goal of large-scale population deaths in a short period of time and ultimately extinction of all mankind."
"As long as everyone dies, the Atlantis will get nothing. Let alone release the virus and select evolved people from the survivors. Under this tragic and tragic resistance, they can only agree to our conditions."
"I have talked to you before that technical assistance includes enhancement agents and some advanced technological concepts, such as high-strength materials and small energy furnaces, etc. But I don't know why they took out this drawing? Moreover, the drawings were handed directly to me in a very secret way, and no one knew about it."
Su Hao fell into silence again. He frowned and thought hard, and it took a long time to open his mouth.
"Will the Atlantis' purpose... want us to build a time shuttle according to the drawings, go to the future, find and get more help?"
Wang Qinian scoffed at Su Hao's statement: "Do you think I haven't thought so? After getting the drawings, I spent a lot of time studying. Every time this time shuttle is launched, it must consume a lot of energy. Moreover, it has a big and fatal flaw - that is, it can only send the members and objects carried to the designated spacetime, and the machine itself cannot arrive with it. To put it bluntly, its function is like the spacecraft's separate rocket thruster. It is only responsible for sending the spacecraft into orbit or generating enough thrust. Once the fuel is exhausted, it can only fall into the atmosphere and become a waste for recycling."
"Of course, passengers can also carry computers, or use other methods to store copies of the drawings in advance, and after arriving at the predetermined time and space, they can create a new time shuttle and return to the original time and space. This idea is not realistic and impossible. Because the time shuttle can only lock "minutes" as the basic unit and cannot be accurate to seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and smaller time units. In theory, the basic unit of minutes is enough, but the actual change is obviously not the case. Any time entry point will have a huge impact on the original time and space. Therefore, time travelers who go to the future time and space cannot return at all. After all, this drawing is just a one-way ticket. Without a return journey, there is naturally no use of future technology. Therefore, this drawing has always troubled me, irresponsible, guess the real use of the Atlantis people.
Su Hao's face became calm.
Wang Qinian would not lie on such issues.
Moreover, his identity and purpose have been clearly identified, so Wang Qinian naturally did not need to continue to test.
The old fat man looked at Su Hao and his tone was calm: "You have also hidden some secrets from me."
Su Hao asked with a faint smile: "Are you referring to my strengthening ability?"
The old fat man nodded and added: "There are those people around you. For example, your wife Li Xinyan; the violent meat girl Tang Zi under your name in the name of the mercenary group; Yang Lulu, a little baby in the new Chengdu Public School... Well, there are some other things, but I can't remember the specific name at once. Haha, even if you travel through time and space, and have more information advantages than others, you can't make everyone obey you, and then form a huge team in a short time. They are all fifth-level reinforcers, and their abilities are similar to yours. Don't use nonsense like "the fifth-level potion in the future world is already full of the streets." If things were really like that, we would have won this biological war long ago."
"Of course not."
In front of Wang Qinian, Su Hao had no intention of hiding it: "I found some interesting things in the military computer archives of the future world. I believe you have enough authority to interpret it. If the situation was not for the chaos at that time and the management affairs of many functional departments of the military department overlapped, I would probably have never seen those."
The old fat man moved his body forward and asked meaningfully: "Are you referring to the Kunming Research Base?"
Su Hao smiled calmly: "Do you still remember the H disk I handed you over before? Regarding Yuan Bin and the missing prototype potion, don't you want to say anything to me?"
As soon as he said that, Ye Ying and Wang Qinian looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
"I guessed it's true. You are the one who actually got the prototype potion."
The old fat man's eyes were filled with emotion: "It's really important to get information in advance. Yuan Bin racked his brains to get that potion, but he didn't expect it to help you in the end."
Su Hao told the puzzle that had troubled him for a long time: "What exactly is the prototype potion? Where did you get it?"
"That thing is mysterious. It is not a product of human beings, but it carries traces of human beings."
Wang Qinian sighed: "Anyway, you already know the whole story of the whole thing. Adding a few more clips will not be considered as revealing the secret. Maybe what I said is just some inspiration to you, and you may know more and more detailed than me."
After confirming that the spiral text was left by the Atlantis, the Group of Three began to search for similar information around the world.
This is a huge and cumbersome project. The Group of Three Kingdoms has put out huge funds to search every country and every city. The scope of investigation is quite wide, covering the entire history of human beings. All classics have been carefully reviewed, and even the original pictures recorded by ancient humans on caves and cliffs were not missed. Because it may include the unique expression of unknown things by ancient humans.
