Did the world end today?

Chapter 262 God of War

Chapter 262 God of War
There were only 15 minutes left, but the progress was already faster than Lin Xu had anticipated.

Using the password provided by Jiang Xingye, Lin Xu quickly gained access to the isolation door and entered the actual control room of the deep space observation station.

Power has been restored, and the control system is starting up.

Jiang Xingye's voice had completely disappeared over the radio, leaving only faint breathing sounds.

Her last words were...
"Close the isolation door and operate with peace of mind."

Her meaning was obvious.

There's no need to leave the door open for her.

Lin Xu felt a sharp pain in his heart, but he couldn't stop it.

While operating the main control panel, he asked Qi Yuan, who was standing next to him:

"So who are these people? Why are they enemies? How do they distinguish between friend and foe?"

"They don't distinguish between friend and foe."

While bandaging the bullet wound in his arm, Qi Yuan gritted his teeth and answered:

“Anyone who gets close is treated as an enemy.”

Lin Xu paused for a moment.

"why?"

"They want to protect this observatory?"

"of course not."

Qi Yuan let out a heavy sigh.

"In fact, they wanted to destroy this observation station."

"It's just that they haven't made a move yet."

"destroy??"

Lin Xu was completely dumbfounded.

"Are you kidding me? Don't they know this could be humanity's last hope?"

"who cares?"

A mocking smile appeared on Qi Yuan's face.

"Try to put yourself in the shoes of an ordinary person."

"The world was doing just fine, technology was developing rapidly, and everyone's life was getting better day by day."

"But then one day, a group of crazy scientists suddenly launched a large-scale experiment despite opposition from the public."

"The result of this experiment was that the entire human world was almost destroyed."

"The night before, you were enjoying hot pot and singing with your wife and kids on a warm bed, and then you woke up to find your children gone and your wife turned into a pile of bones. Wouldn't you be crazy?"

"This is what this disaster is like, and in fact, the situation is even more terrifying."

"Even more terrifying?"

Lin Xu frowned and asked:

"How scary is it?"

Qi Yuan's eyes suddenly dimmed, as if he were lost in some kind of memory.

"After that time storm, the logic of the entire world was in chaos."

"Even those tasks that were not directly affected by the storm have been completely thrown into chaos by the fact that humans rely on the scale of 'time' to carry out their missions."

"Movement and stillness, existence and non-existence, being and not being. All boundaries are blurred."

"You might just want to touch your lover's face, but when you come to your senses, you find that you've already smashed her head."

Could he be talking about himself?

Lin Xu's eyes flickered, and Qi Yuan seemed to sense his question, so he immediately explained:
"It wasn't me, I just saw it."

"clear."

Lin Xu looked at the screen; all preparations were complete.

He pressed the start button to activate the detection system, and then began inputting and adjusting the coordinate parameters.

"So where is Su Yuchen? Where did she go?"

"Disappeared."

Qi Yuan replied:
"She was lucky; she didn't experience any pain, nor did she cause me much pain."

"She still loves me so much."

indeed.

In such a storm, disappearing in a way like Su Yuchen is probably the greatest expression of love for the living.

What kind of pure love god of war is this!
At this point, even if Qi Yuan didn't continue, Lin Xu already understood the origin of those so-called "enemies".

Really, after going through all of this, what distinction is left between friend and foe?
An ordinary person's anger is enough to shatter everything, but if someone claims to be a scientist and wants to find a way to restore the world in the old way...
That's practically tantamount to courting death.

After a slight pause, Lin Xu suddenly seemed to have thought of something and said:
"Your wife might not be dead yet."

"Su Yuchen may not be dead yet."

“Not dead?”

Qi Yuan suddenly stood up.

Where is she??

"I do not know."

Lin Xu shook his head.

"She may be in another world, or she may be in this world, at some point in the future."

"It's just that you can't find her yet."

"But it's okay, you'll meet again after the restart."

"Moreover, in my world, you and she are already living together."

Upon hearing Lin Xu's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Qi Yuan's face.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked:
So, are we happy?

"To be honest, I don't know."

Lin Xu's fingers danced rapidly across the keyboard; there were still 11 minutes left.

"Because to me, you only moved in together last night."

"I didn't even have time to ask you how you were getting along."

"But I think it should be pretty good."

Didn't have time?
A hint of doubt flashed in Qi Yuan's eyes.

What do you mean by "didn't have time for it"?

Shouldn't your world be a fairly stable one?
What could possibly be holding you back?
That makes sense. It's probably because it's a stable world that the ordinary happiness she and Su Yuchen share doesn't deserve much attention.

Qi Yuan's wound was still bleeding, but he seemed to be in no pain at all.

It's true that love can make even water taste sweet.

Lin Xu couldn't help but sigh.

This is no longer as simple as love conquering all; the feelings between these two have transcended the boundaries of the world. He pulled his slightly wandering thoughts back to the screen.

At this moment, the gravitational wave detection system has been fully activated, with the measurement focus on the "time fragment" hanging in the sky.

In fact, Lin Xu had no idea how significant such an operation was.

Can the unreachable cardinality, the so-called k-value, be obtained through measurement?

do not know.

In at least any previous mathematical deduction by humankind, no one has been able to obtain a similar inaccessible cardinality through measurement.

It's like when you're solving a geometry problem, instead of using mathematical deduction to get the final answer, you try to measure the angles and lengths on the diagram using a ruler and a protractor.

Is this method effective?
There may or may not be.

Lin Xu could confirm only one thing: that is, within this "time fragment" composed of particles, there is indeed a certain essential law of "the boundary constraints of a chaotic system after the failure of the choice axiom".

Perhaps by measuring gravitational fluctuations, we can roughly determine the range of this K value, and then further refined analysis can more easily deduce the standard answer.

This was the only thing he could do.

With nine minutes remaining, a muffled explosion could be heard outside the isolation door.

Each explosion causes random fluctuations in the observed data.

If you continue like this, you will only collect completely useless information.

Lin Xu looked at Qi Yuan.

"I have started the measurement, which is expected to take 8 minutes."

"Qi Yuan, I need you to do something."

"what's up?"

Qi Yuan turned around, and Lin Xu looked directly into his eyes and said:
"Open the door and kill the person outside."

"Hold this control room for the next 8 minutes."

"I can't help you, you can only rely on yourself."

"clear."

Qi Yuan nodded solemnly.

He forced himself to stand up, and Lin Xu handed him all his magazines, while keeping the rifle with only a few bullets left by himself.

That's not for self-defense, that's for suicide.

After recording the data, Lin Xu must kill himself to end this disaster.

"Don't let the bullets get in."

Lin Xu instructed:
"And let's not let them cause any more explosions that cause strong shocks."

"clear."

Qi Yuan carefully put away the magazine and walked towards the isolation door with slightly unsteady steps.

The closer he got to the isolation door, the more determined his steps became.

Just a second before opening the door, he suddenly turned back to Lin Xu and said:

"When you go back, remember to tell me this in the other world."

"I failed to protect Yu Chen in this world, so he must protect Yu Chen!"

"I know."

Lin Xu answered without looking up:

"I will protect her too."

"what?"

Qi Yuan felt that something was off about that statement.

But at this moment, he had no time to think about it anymore.

The isolation door has been opened.

next second.

Gunfire erupts!

Lin Xu did not go to see Qi Yuan.

He knew that there weren't many enemies left outside the door.

Maybe 5, maybe 10, maybe 15.

However, it makes no difference to Qi Yuan.

He can block it, and even if he can't, he can definitely stall for time until after 8 minutes.

The gunshots did not distract Lin Xu; he was focused on staring intently at the screen, watching the data that was constantly being updated.

This method of memorization is not actually the most efficient, because during the measurement process, the gravitational wave system generates a large amount of redundant data, which will eventually have to be discarded.

But Lin Xu had no choice; he couldn't wait until the final output to record that result separately, as that would be completely meaningless.

What he needs is a global overview, a process of change!

Time passed second by second, and Lin Xu's concentration continued to rise.

His brain entered an unprecedented state of high-speed operation, to the point that everything around him was excluded.

Bullets still flew uncontrollably into the control room, grazing Lin Xu's hair and disappearing into the wall.

But he remained unmoved.

The last two minutes.

The gunfire outside was becoming increasingly sparse.

The measurement is now in its final stages.

last minute.

When the final result came out, Lin Xu memorized the gravitational fluctuation data.

10 seconds.
