Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 11 Liar
"I've been so busy with training these past few days that I almost forgot about the end of the world."

Perhaps it was because of the relaxed atmosphere created by Zhou Yu, or perhaps it was because he had become part of a huge machine and could not see the whole picture, in any case, Jiang Yang did not think about the apocalypse too many times in the past two days.

But what's meant to happen will happen. What's meant to be faced will be faced.

"You said there would be a cycle after the end of the world, that the world would go back to ten days ago, and that the dead would come back. Is that true?"

Zhou Yu was depressed and nervous, but there was a glimmer of hope in her eyes. She was like a terminally ill patient who knew her condition and was asking the doctor if the good news that could be considered her last hope was true.

In stark contrast to his optimism and relaxation in the previous days, Zhou Yucai now seemed more like an ordinary person facing the end of the world.

Jiang Yang sighed softly to himself and said seriously, "It's true."

In the next life, all the dead will return, the destroyed will be restored, and the world will remain the same.

At that moment, a powerful determination welled up in his heart: "One day, I will find out the truth about this apocalypse so that our country and civilization can continue."

The thought lingered for a moment, then Jiang Yang was suddenly startled and said with displeasure, "Hey, Zhou Yu, you've gone too far. At a time like this, stop with the psychological manipulation, okay?"

He suspected that Zhou Yu was still pretending at this moment, in order to arouse his protective instincts and strengthen his resolve.

Zhou Yu paused for a moment, then spat out, "Jiang Yang, that's enough!"

Jiang Yang looked her up and down with suspicion: "You psychology students are too scary. You never know when you'll fool me. I have to be careful around you."

"Jiang Yang, are you looking for death?! You're making me so angry!"

Zhou Yu turned around, leaving Jiang Yang with only her back to him.

……

As the sun gradually sets in the west, the shadows of the trees on the ground grow longer, and the mountain breeze brings a touch of coolness.

"Hey, let's go, let's go back!"

"Leaving? Okay."

Zhou Yu got up from the recliner, his expression had returned to normal.

Back at the base, Jiang Yang was led to a room that covered more than 100 square meters and could be called a hall.

The room was filled with countless devices that Jiang Yang couldn't understand. In the very center was a device that resembled a recliner, with a rather large screen hanging on it.

Professor Lu Zhaoming smiled at Jiang Yang and said, "Come on, give it a try first."

Jiang Yang lay down on the recliner, and a group of people in white coats busied themselves connecting various devices to him.

Several needles were even inserted into Jiang Yang's blood vessels, and dark red blood flowed out through the tubes, passed through a machine, and was then returned to Jiang Yang's body through another entrance.

"This is a comprehensive life monitoring device that will monitor any changes in your body in real time."

Professor Lu Zhaoming gave a brief introduction: "This screen is connected to the supercomputer in the base, Arctic 4."

Arctic 4 connects to thousands of probes, satellites, environmental monitoring devices, and other equipment both inside and outside the base, as well as this comprehensive life monitoring system. It automatically analyzes data for anomalies and generates charts; any anomalies are automatically displayed on this screen, like this.

Professor Lu Zhaoming pressed a button, and a dense array of information immediately appeared on the screen.

Deep Space 7 satellite observation data: Normal
Data from the Tianhuo Deep Space Infrared Telescope: Normal
Data from the Damingshan Radio Telescope: Normal

Background radiation level monitoring data within the base: Normal
Gemini Solar Probe Observation Data: Normal

Near-Earth Asteroid Search System Observation Data: Normal
Hongshan Sky Survey Telescope System Observation Data: Normal
......"

Jiang Yang knew that under the operation of this huge machine composed of at least hundreds of thousands of people, a vast net had been built, and the No. 7 Doomsday Base was the absolute core of this net.

He himself was at the very core of this network. From this moment on, any anomaly, whether inside or outside the Earth, would cause fluctuations in this vast network and precisely transmit these anomalies to his eyes.

"Of course, the current observation data is all normal, you don't need to memorize it."

Lu Zhaoming gave Jiang Yang a detailed introduction to the various facilities in the room and informed him of the key points. It was evening by then.

There are less than 4 hours left until the end of the world.

"Let's rest for a while."

As Jiang Yang left this place, which could be called the heart of the base, he clearly sensed that as the time drew near, the atmosphere in the base had become so tense that it was almost visible to the naked eye.

Every gaze directed at Jiang Yang was filled with complex thoughts.

Including Zhou Yu.

“I really hope you’re a fraudster, a fraudster who used methods we haven’t figured out yet to fulfill those prophecies and then fooled all of us.”

Zhou Yu sighed: "If only you were really a liar."

Jiang Yang suppressed his thoughts and laughed, "I'm quite proud that I was able to fool a psychologist like you. It's just a pity... tsk tsk."

Jiang Yang shook his head, looking very regretful.

Zhou Yu asked nervously, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Jiang Yang looked at Zhou Yu with a provocative expression: "You didn't lie all the way through, huh?"

Zhou Yu was taken aback, then a charming smile appeared on her face: "How do you know you can't fool me if you don't try?"

"Well, shall we go? Let me check the time. Hmm, there are still more than three hours left. That's enough time to fool me a few more times."

"Alright, alright, get some rest. We're counting on you to live another life. Sigh, I wonder if I'll still be me in the next life if I die in this one?"

Contemplating this somewhat profound question, Zhou Yu muttered to himself, shook his head, and closed the door to Jiang Yang's room.

Jiang Yang suppressed his smile and lay quietly on the bed.

It was late at night, but he didn't feel sleepy at all.

At 11 p.m., there was a knock on the door.

After meeting up with Zhou Yu, Jiang Yang once again arrived at that spacious room, which was as large as a hall.

He saw Sun Changhe again, as well as Gu Changshan, Lu Zhaoming, Tang Jianwei, and many other people.

In addition to these high-ranking officials, Jiang Yang also saw dozens of staff members stationed in front of various pieces of equipment, their eyes fixed on them, not daring to relax for a moment.

"Comrade Jiang Yang, I'm entrusting this matter to you."

Sun Changhe's hair was becoming increasingly thin, and although he was in good spirits, he was clearly exhausted.

Jiang Yang nodded silently.

Gu Changshan said, "The equipment has been fully debugged and the network setup is complete. We can begin."

"it is good."

Jiang Yang agreed and lay down on the "recliner," letting dozens of life monitoring devices be connected to his body and several needles pierce his veins.
