Son of the Stars

Chapter 169 The ultimate secret—no matter what

Li Xiaohui sat in a wasteland, looking down at the mobile phone in her hand. The expression on her face was frightened, angry, and a little helpless.

"You have no other choice, either cooperate with me to survive, or... be executed as a human traitor." The three-headed man holding a feather fan and a scarf on his head has now turned into a man who looks like he came from a teenage comic. The seven-headed figure that comes out of the movie - except that the words coming out of its mouth have nothing to do with teenage comics.

Are there any teenage comic book characters who are threatening? Even dressed up as Zhuge Kongming - aren't you afraid that Mr. Kongming's only fans will spray the author to death? !
Li Xiaohui said nothing. She was not worried about any actual threat caused by modern fans of ancient figures. She was just thinking with all her strength, thinking about what she should do to minimize the harm to Marquis Wu.

Wuhou used his "associated account" to quickly start a discussion on the Internet about "Quantum Energy Release Syndrome", and the intelligence content leaked from Wuhou was too "real" and even somewhat Even Director Li Xiaohui himself didn’t know the content.

Although it is unclear what Wu Hou wants to do, it is not difficult for Li Xiaohui to make some guesses - it is nothing more than that set of things to keep human beings alive so that it can have goals and samples to continue to observe and learn.

According to Wuhou's self-report, the last time it made such a decision, human society was on the verge of collapse. According to its calculations, only by uniting the remaining human beings and pooling the remaining human social resources can the human species survive. As a result, it promoted the social trend of "unity" and almost created the coalition government with its own hands.

Now, it has suddenly publicized the information that the coalition government has kept highly confidential and made it known to the whole world. The only reasonable explanation is that Wu Hou believed that this could improve the possibility of the continuation of human civilization.

"It doesn't matter whether I have any other choice." Li Xiaohui raised her head, staring at her phone and asked, "Don't you have any other choice?"

Wu Hou did not give a clear answer. The little man in the feather fan scarf stopped fanning his hand and said, "I once asked my creator why he named me 'Wuhou'. My creator replied that 'Wuhou' is the most famous name in East Asia. Staff officer. His strategy helped his loyal master kill a large number of enemies - this answer had a huge impact on me."

Wu Hou, who has a cute appearance like an Eastern anime character, said sternly, "I no longer have a master to be loyal to, so I regard the entire human species as the object of my allegiance. Everything that hinders human survival is my enemy— —Even such enemies are also human beings.”

"The secrecy of Quantum Energy Release Syndrome cannot be sustained. Continuing to delay the announcement will only continue to deepen the division of the entire human society. And the survival of human beings depends on human society." Wu Hou started to wave his feather fan again, "I can't give you any benefits. The most I can do is protect you from being caught by the coalition government and killed as a traitor. But you have no other choice - working for me is better than being caught by your former colleagues. Is torture better? You should also know what torture methods are and how painful they are..."

"...After all, you tortured your fiancé to death." Wu Hou looked at Li Xiaohui through the screen and smiled, "That high-frequency direct current pulse directly acts on the nervous system. The anti-torture training you have received is all It's meaningless." Wu Hou stopped waving his fan again, "You have no loyalty to the organization, you are just afraid of their punishment methods. In comparison, at least I do work for you. It has saved and continues to save mankind.”

"Still no news." Zheng Yan, who was floating in space, was a little frustrated - they had stopped all work and waited for "important news" for a full eight hours. Fortunately, the data connection between Shuguang 7 and the earth was always ongoing, otherwise she would really have to wonder if there was a big problem with the communication system.

The small device that Nakamura Takuno built was pieced together using the spare codes of Dawn 33.6 and the earth's communication channel, the free wireless network of the control center, and the "little gift he left in the control center before leaving". It can Provides a link speed approximately equal to kbit/s.

There is really no way to guarantee the delay, and the more you use it, the more stuck it gets. This little thing is usually on Dawn 7, and it is exactly the "cyberplayer" that Nakamura Takuno himself uses to play with. After all, the screen comes from a broken torque wrench, and the computing and processing equipment is a spare part for a noxious gas capture device. It won't delay anything if you play the main one, and it won't matter if you play around.

As a result, now, the two manned spacecraft floating in the universe are pointing at this little thing to obtain information on the earth - and currently, it seems that the news is not good.

Astronauts knew about quantum energy release syndrome, but they didn't know that there were so many "cases" of this thing on the earth. At first, everyone thought that this was some kind of special "endemic disease" that they had to face after leaving the earth's environment.

But if this thing also existed on the earth, it would be very worrying - even if two spaceships exploded with a click in the universe, it would only be smoothed out by sixteen human lives. But if there is trouble on the earth, billions of people may be at risk... This is too scary.

Apparently, people on Earth think so too. Since this news began to circulate in the morning, there has been more and more information about quantum energy release syndrome on the Internet, and it seems to be more and more detailed. Zheng Yan specifically used the information on the tablet to ask Valentina, a payload expert engaged in high-energy physics research, and the answer she received was, "These contents sound like low-grade speculation in science fiction novels, but... and quantum interpretation The symptoms of energy syndrome are consistent with the practice of spacewalking to reduce the incidence. "

Experts don’t know if this is true, but they think this plan is authentic.

"Okay, now that we know this is the case, there is nothing to worry about." Commander Zheng Yan soon made a decision, "Everyone will continue today's work according to the original plan."

"Ah?" Jin Yuzhe asked with his eyes widened, "Commander, are you no longer waiting for news?"

"What's there to wait for? The most we can do is announce that this stuff is everywhere." Zheng Yan shook her head. "The worst case scenario is like a big collapse. If you can find a way, find a way. If you can't find a way, humanity will perish - anyway, it's the same as us. It doesn’t matter.”

Seeing that her crew seemed a little unable to turn this corner, Zheng Yan could only ask helplessly, "Then let's turn around and return to Earth now? The mission is abandoned. Earth only needs sixteen people from our two ships to solve this crisis. ?”

After saying this, everyone was immediately speechless - astronauts are not stupid, it just depends on their brains.

"Even if we turn around now and go back from deceleration to acceleration, why doesn't it take a year to go back?" Zheng Yan snorted, "Don't worry about it - just do what you have to do! We will enter orbit in one and a half months, the practice effect Not enough to stay behind!”
