I handed over to another world

Before she finished speaking, the silver-haired girl projected by Zhulong in the center of Pangu Hall raised her hand slightly. A clear and calm beam of data stream shot out from her fingertips, instantly constructing a huge, precise, and dazzling three-dimensional structure diagram in the central airspace of the circular hall - but this was not a real-time energy topology.

"This is based on the current critical space-time parameters and the pressure index of the association's internal decision-making nodes,"

Zhulong's voice was calm, as if he was stating a given cosmological constant. "I have calculated the evolution trajectory of a potential world line, with a probability of 78.42%. Please pay attention to this simulation."

Her fingertips pointed precisely at the core area of ​​the structural diagram, and the image quickly enlarged.

This time, what all the participants saw was not the tampering of energy pathways, but a dynamically evolving disaster scenario simulation: the simulation clearly showed that the door of Pangu Hall was wide open, and five special service members (identified as the "Red Falcon Squad") wearing black combat armor and helmets with flashing scarlet electronic eyes rushed out like deadly black lightning, aiming directly at the tightly closed laboratory isolation door at the end of the corridor.

"Target Threat Level: Extinction Level! The Association's highest emergency authorization! Clear obstacles!"

The simulation team emitted a cold synthetic electronic sound, and the security personnel of the research institute guarding the door in the picture had not finished speaking yet -

"Bang! Bang!"

Two dazzling particle beams instantly annihilated and decomposed them.

Then, the pulse drill roared as it chiseled at the thick isolation door. Sparks and energy arcs jumped wildly, and the thick alloy door was violently torn apart, melting into a hideous gap!

At the moment when the simulated destruction reached its climax—buzz!

A terrifying buzzing sound that freezes one's soul erupted in the simulation!
Following the broken gap, an extremely strange purple light stream suddenly gushed out like the water of the Styx bursting its dam!

Wherever the light reaches, the corridor space distorts, softens, and flows!
Zhulong's voice rang out along with this destructive simulation image: "When the isolation barrier is forcibly breached, the zero-point cage will be affected by the external high-energy impact, and the virtual time flow accumulated inside will lose its restraints. The stability of the space-time anchor point will return to zero, and the vacuum zero-point energy level will instantly fall below the critical threshold..."

In the simulation, the purple light spread rapidly, swallowing everything.

"The probability of vacuum decay propagation bubbles being generated... simulation results: 99.999%."

Zhulong's cold announcement was like a final judgment, "Affective range: current galaxy, diffusion speed: speed of light."

"Extinction-level event, the countdown is unpredictable."

The simulation ended and Pangu Hall fell into silence.

The Minister of Energy opened his mouth with a gloomy expression. The scene of the particle beam annihilating the guards in the simulation just now seemed to still be flashing before his eyes.

The iron tower-like general had cold sweat on his forehead as he stared at the simulated melting alloy corridor.

"This... this is just a simulation..."

The Energy Minister tried to struggle, but his voice was dry and trembling.

Zhulong's projection remained unwavering: "The probability of this world line is calculated in real time based on current decision-making pressure, armed force deployment, and laboratory defense parameters - 78.42%. This is already very amazing, ladies and gentlemen."

At this moment, a shrill and strange alarm sound penetrated the thick alloy wall, and the screams and the crackling sound of some kind of space rupture coming from the external public area were creepy!

"Report! Emergency!"

The terrified communication cut into the main channel, and the real surveillance footage of the outer corridor of the third laboratory flashed on the screen!

In the middle of the corridor, the air was violently churning and twisting, and a "space-time cyst" with a diameter of about three meters, blurred boundaries, and emitting a dark glow appeared out of thin air!
A terrified researcher subconsciously reached out to touch it... and the whole person instantly "dissolved" and disappeared like a low-quality hologram!
All that was left was the sound of the air collapsing inwards!

Another unlucky person was swept by the ripples from the edge of the cyst, and his arm and shoulder disappeared silently, leaving only emptiness and darkness at the break!

"Space-time cyst! Space-time turbulence at the contact point! Sensing energy characteristics... highly homologous to the core readings of the laboratory's zero-point cage!"

The voice coming from the surveillance camera was crying.

“Same origin?!”

The Minister of Energy lost his voice. He first looked at the simulation image that Zhulong had just shown, then looked at the real horrifying scene at the moment, and the blood drained from his face.

Zhulong's voice sounded again, without any ripples, but with irrefutable weight: "The distortion of real space-time has occurred. This phenomenon is highly consistent with the core driving factor of the simulated 'breakthrough-catastrophic' world line. The current probability of vacuum decay triggering is corrected in real time: rising... 87.56%... 92.31%..."

Panic flooded Pangu Hall like tangible ice water.

What Zhulong presented was not an accusation, but a prophecy that was about to become a reality!

She is not tampering with the future, but showing a future with a very high probability of extinction that may be caused by human behavior!

Chaos erupted like a tsunami; the accusations, shouts, and demands for immediate action almost blew the dome off!
Chen Lin suddenly raised his hand, and the copper coin drew a cold arc of light at his fingertips, and the crisp sound of metal collision instantly quieted the boiling Pangu Hall.

"Zhulong,"

His voice was eerily calm. "Show me the fix."

The projection of the silver-haired girl nodded slightly and tapped her fingers.

The holographic screen immediately split into two parallel scenes: the catastrophic simulation continued to play on the left, while a set of dizzyingly precise quantum equations emerged on the right.

"According to chaos theory, there are infinite possibilities for world lines."

Zhulong's voice was calm, a characteristic of super artificial intelligence. "The current crisis can be reduced through triple intervention."

"That is, the world line is changed through energy buffer layers, time anchor point reset, and consciousness observation intervention."

“How difficult is it to execute?”

Chen Lin's eyes swept across the set of equations.

The data flow in Zhulong's pupils accelerated: "I need your authorization to activate a special permission, which will temporarily give me absolute control over the association's global quantum network."

There was a gasp in the conference room, and Lin Guwei stood up suddenly: "President! This is equivalent to completely handing the fate of mankind over to an AI!"

"We have already handed over the energy control to her, and you completed the operation privately without even discussing it at the high-level meeting!"

"If you have any objections, you can impeach me according to the relevant system."

Chen Lin glanced at them, then slowly walked to the front of the holographic projection, staring at the two completely different futures: on one side was a purple catastrophe that devoured the galaxy, and on the other side was a stably operating quantum network.

"Zhulong," he suddenly asked, "In your calculations, what is the optimal solution for the survival of human civilization?"

For the first time, the silver-haired girl's projection showed a slight fluctuation. She gently raised her hand, and the holographic picture suddenly changed - showing the flag of the Red Dragon Association flying in thousands of galaxies in the Milky Way.

"My first core agreement: ensure the continuation of human civilization."

Her voice was rarely warm, "The real continuation is not to survive, but to evolve."

Chen Lin raised his lips slightly. He took out the copper coin with the future engraved on it and gently pressed it on the console: "Authorization confirmed, start it."

Following a burst of mechanical humming, the lights in the entire base suddenly turned into a dark blue.

Zhu Long's silver hair moved automatically without wind, and the data flow in his pupils became faster and faster: "The protocol has been activated, and the space-time stabilization program has started."

A shocking scene occurred - the horrifying "space-time cyst" in the surveillance footage began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The twisted corridor gradually returned to its original state, and even the devoured researcher reappeared in the same place, with a bewildered look on his face. "This... This is impossible!"

The Energy Minister's eyes widened.

"It's not about reversing time," Zhulong explained softly, "but about collapsing the probability to a world line that is favorable to us."

Her projection suddenly turned to Chen Lin, "But President, this is only temporary stability. The real source of the crisis is still there—"

Chen Lin raised his hand to interrupt her: "I know."

"The Zero Point Cage experiment must continue, but in a different way."

He looked around at everyone and said in a resounding voice: "From today on, the Red Dragon Association officially launches the 'Sky Repair Project'. What we need to do is not to fear time and space, but to control it."

Zhulong's projection bowed slightly, his silver hair fluttering in the virtual quantum wind: "As you wished, calculations show that under your leadership, the probability of mankind's advancement to the third-level civilization has increased by 37.6%."

A smile appeared on Chen Lin's face: "That's good."

……

As soon as the automatic door of Pangu Hall closed, the quarrel in the conference room erupted like a volcano.

Energy Minister Zheng Mingyuan punched the holographic projection table, shattering the stabilization plan displayed by Zhulong.

"This is naked dictatorship!" His voice was distorted by anger. "In the past thirty years, the Red Dragon Association has never made such a dangerous decision!"

Security Minister Zhou Zhen silently pulled up a data stream: "According to Article 17 of the Association's Charter, when the President's behavior endangers the survival of civilization, the Board of Directors may initiate emergency impeachment procedures."

Among the twelve core directors, the pupil certification lights of seven have been lit - reaching the minimum number required to initiate impeachment.

Under the dim light, the projections of seven directors sat around the table, and Zheng Mingyuan's fingers tapped on the table in a rapid rhythm.

“Are all the materials ready?”

Zhou Zhen pushed out a data chip: "All the records of Chen Lin's overstepping of authority in the past five years, including the unauthorized activation of the 'Zhulong' core protocol, the private use of stellar energy, and... today's farce that almost destroyed the galaxy."

"not enough."

Conservative veteran Xu Shiwu shook his head, his white hair shining silver under the light, "We need a key piece of evidence that can impress the neutral directors."

The holographic projection suddenly lit up, showing an encrypted communication record.

In the picture, Chen Lin is talking to a blurry figure: "...The real purpose of the Bronze Sparrow Project is not to observe time, but to reshape cause and effect..."

"This is?!"

Zheng Mingyuan stood up suddenly.

"It was just discovered from the database yesterday." Zhou Zhen's eyes flashed with danger, "It proves that our president has been planning this time-space experiment for a long time."

"This is impossible!"

Everyone looked at each other, no one dared to believe this.

"No matter what, we will go to see him tomorrow according to the impeachment progress as usual."

Zhou Zhen glanced at everyone and said slowly: "Then we will know the truth."

The next morning, the atmosphere in the Red Dragon Association's highest council chamber was as heavy as iron.

Chen Lin sat upright on the bronze chairman's seat, the copper coins on his fingertips spinning at a constant speed, drawing cold arcs in the morning light.

The holographic projection areas around the parliament hall have lit up the certification logos of the twelve core directors, seven of which are flashing a dazzling red light - the impeachment procedure has been initiated.

"According to the power granted by Article 17 of the Charter," Zheng Mingyuan stood at the central prosecution seat, his voice trembling slightly with excitement, "we formally propose a motion of no confidence in Chairman Chen Lin."

The holographic projection unfolds seven charges, each with a detailed chain of evidence.

When the encrypted communication was played, there was an uproar in the parliament hall.

"President Chen, do you have anything else to explain?"

At the special meeting in Shangdu, a voice echoed in the silent hall.

The copper coin suddenly stopped at Chen Lin's fingertips. He slowly stood up. Everyone could see that the red dragon emblem on his black uniform came to life under the light, as if it would take off into the air at any time.

"interesting."

He glanced at the seven directors who initiated the impeachment, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "You found the evidence, but you didn't know that I left it in the database on purpose."

The parliament hall suddenly became eerily quiet; even the sound of breathing could be heard.

Chen Lin lightly flicked the coin, and the holographic projection immediately switched to a shocking star map.

Seven specially marked galaxies form a chain that spans the Milky Way, and each node glows with a faint blue quantum light.

"The reason I do this is,"

Chen Lin's voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly. "It's not about reshaping cause and effect, but... building a line of defense."

Zhu Long's silver-haired projection suddenly appeared in the center of the hall. Her voice was ethereal, a voice that was unique to super artificial intelligence: "Data decryption is complete. The seven galaxies are connected to form a quantum entanglement barrier that can block the vacuum decay waves from the Virgo Supercluster. This is a standard defense for a third-level civilization."

"And the 'farce' you mentioned..."

Chen Lin took over the conversation, his eyes sharp, "It is a necessary stress test."

"Now we know that Zhulong can indeed protect human civilization from extinction-level crises."

Zheng Mingyuan's face turned pale in an instant. He staggered back a step and bumped into the holographic console behind him: "You...you planned all this a long time ago?"

The copper coin fell on the Speaker's seat with a "ding" sound, making a crisp metallic sound.

"According to the supplementary clauses of the Charter, when civilization faces an existential crisis, the president has the right to suspend all proceedings."

His voice was calm and firm, but it froze the air in the entire parliament hall. "I now declare that the impeachment is invalid."

Everyone looked extremely depressed at this moment. Chen Lin glanced at them and asked, "Do you have anything else to add?"

"President Chen."

Zhou Zhen said at the side: "We hope that next time we carry out a similar plan, you will inform us in advance..."

Chen Lin did not answer directly, but glanced at everyone: "Do you all think so?"

Everyone nodded at this time. Chen Lin sighed slightly and waved his hand towards Zhulong: "Then next time, send a copy of the relevant plan to each of them. You should all know the confidentiality regulations. Let's do this for now." (End of this chapter)
