The Terra Travel Diary of Neither Sacred, Rhea, nor Terra

Noticing the sudden hostility coming out of Christen, Miku, who could almost guess what was going on, controlled the mechanical tentacles on his body to stroke the fur of the big golden retriever.

Miku remembered that the golden retriever that was bred as a water hound was a typical spy among dogs. It was as loyal as possible to humans, and as cruel as possible to its own kind and other animals.

Could it be that my dog-walking behavior these days has caused this big golden retriever, Christen, to awaken the attributes of its ancestors?

If that's the case... well, that's even more interesting.

Miku said as he stroked Christen's fur:

"Also, your current state is not suitable for fusion. The damage to your body will also affect the stability of your soul. Once you are out of danger, I will arrange a meeting between you."

"Meeting?" Although the tactile code had not been completely finalized, Christen, who was still enjoying Miku's stroking of her hair, temporarily put Thor Industries behind her.

"Don't you think it's interesting to have a unique exchange between myself in different timelines?"

Whether it's fighting or tearing each other apart, it's all very interesting to Miku.

"...Indeed, it's very interesting." On the point of fun, Kristen and Miku once again kept in step with each other.

All the communication between Miku and Kristen took place in the private chat channel. In the eyes of other people in the operating room, the two of them were just standing there like wood.

Fortunately, it was common to stand still for several hours in the operating room. The silence of Miku and Christen did not arouse much curiosity. At least Mr. Blood did not show any intention of kicking Miku out.

The entire rescue operation lasted nearly two hours. During these two hours, the attending doctor also found a way to get to the operating table... to wipe Mr. Xue's sweat.

The pale-faced Huafalin threw the scissors on the plate beside him and said:

"It's ok, send him to the intensive care unit."

Kal'tsit, who had been cooperating with Warfarin, also stopped.

At least we are out of danger temporarily. As for whether we can completely get out of the danger period, it depends on the next few days.

But like Warfarin

As Lin said before, this patient has a very strong will to survive, otherwise even if she and Huafalin went to the underworld to chase the soul together, they might not be able to get it back.

Just as Warfarin and Kal'tsit were about to clean up the contaminated area in unison, Miku, who hadn't said a word for two hours... at least in their eyes, hadn't said a word, spoke up:

"No need, just stay here."

"Who are you?" Huafalin stopped and her scarlet eyes revealed a meaning of "Who the hell are you talking nonsense here?"

Kal'tsit on the side also frowned and looked at Miku. To put it bluntly, what Miku said was a disregard for human life.

Then the next second, Kal'tsit's frowning expression became even more confused than when she knew that the person on the operating table was General Kristen.

"I'm the doctor," Miku said in an electronic synthesized voice.

"Huh? You're the only one with a doctorate? What's the big deal about a doctorate? I have four doctorate certificates." Hua Farin laughed out loud. Showing off a doctorate degree in front of her was simply like showing off one's skills in front of an expert.

The attending physician, who had been wiping the sweat off Warfarin for two hours, also straightened his chest for a rare moment.

Isn't a PhD or something like that the entry qualification for Rhine Life Sciences Medical Department?

But after a few seconds, Hua Falin's expression changed slightly as if she had thought of something:

"Are you the Doctor? The Doctor?"

To be precise, Warfarin has five doctoral degrees, but one of them cannot be used at all.

Because of that person's presence, all scholars who study Originium cannot call themselves doctors.

"I don't need to prove it to you, Dr. Farfarin," Miku said.

"You...even if you are that doctor, you can't do this. And my name is Huafarin, not Fafarin." Huafarin's tone was much softer than before.

Huafalin did not doubt Miku's identity as a doctor. In her opinion, only that doctor would dare to transform his body to the point where he could not even cook a dish.

Warfarin's change in attitude also made the attending physician, who had just straightened his chest, shrink to the side like a deflated ball.

Is this the doctor? A boss on the same level as General Commander Kristen? I'm so scared. No wonder the General Commander has been following him around these past few days.

The attending physician still remembered that there was a piece of gossip about the General Manager in Rhine Life, that is, the great General Manager of Rhine Life had been thinking about the other party because he did not receive a response to his communication letters.

So this melon is real?

"It's okay here, Fafarin." As Miku said this, the mechanical tentacles behind him that had just been smoothing Christen's hair for a long time wrapped around the operating table.

After a series of transformations and reorganizations, it became a device whose principle no one could understand, but at least it could be recognized as a life support device similar to a hibernation capsule.

"Okay, in that case, you will be in charge. Call me if you need anything. I'm going to take a rest first."

Out of trust in the doctor's academic attainments, Huafalin did not continue to object, and did not even correct the other party's wrong name.

Kal'tsit, who had been looking at Miku with a strange look ever since Miku claimed to be a doctor, hesitated for a moment but did not question why Miku stole the identity of the doctor.

After taking a deep look at the life support device that had absolutely nothing to do with Terran technology, he left the operating room with Warfarin.

The two big guys left, and the attending doctor also left the operating room with his main operator and the nurse.

Soon, Miku and Kristen were the only two people left in the operating room...or rather, three people.

"What should we do next?" The transmitter robot version of Christen standing next to Miku also showed some interest in the life support device made by Miku.

However, because Miku had done similar things so many times, Christen didn't take it too seriously.

Anyway, she knew that if she really wanted it, Miku would probably give her the technology of the life support device.

"Well... this really won't work, at least not now." Miku said to Christen as if he could read her mind.

"? Is it because Terra's technology can't do it?" Christen also knew that Miku didn't seem to want to throw out technology that exceeded Terra's own technological level.

"Yes, and this is another technology tree that is completely different from Terra's. It also involves another kind of power that you haven't come into contact with yet. This kind of power is not suitable for you to come into contact with too early."

Miku explained.

"I understand." Since Miku said so, Christen didn't care about it anymore.

"So, dream on, Commander Kristen."

Along with Miku's voice, a crystal branch grew out from the bottom of a life support device that was the same as the hibernation capsule, and quickly grew into a crystal tree.

"Into a dream?"

Christen watched the crystal tree grow until it was half the size of the operating room, and then she just waited quietly by the side.

After waiting for a while, Christen, who didn't feel like she was falling asleep, looked at Miku beside her in confusion.

As a result, Christen discovered that Miku, who was originally standing beside her, had disappeared at some point.

Perhaps because Miku often disappeared and reappeared suddenly, after a brief moment of daze, Christen did not panic, but just approached the life support device and took a look at herself lying inside.

After looking at herself for a while, Christen hesitated and raised her hand towards "herself".

Without hearing Miku's reminder, Kristen gently placed her hand on the forehead of her other self and casually smoothed her blonde hair that was mostly shaved off.

"You... are really lucky." Christen paused for a long time before saying this.

Unfortunately, the "Sleeping Beauty" lying on the life support device could not give herself a response.

"So... I'm already dreaming, right?" Christen said to herself.

The wall of the operating room also collapsed as Christen muttered to herself. Behind the wall was the empty office of the Rhine Life Chief Executive except for an oversized desk that could be used as a bed.

Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Kristen lowered his head and looked at "himself" again, sighed and said:

"You are so unfortunate again."

The walls and windows of the office collapsed once again, revealing a launch site that had never existed in history.

An oversized multi-rotor aircraft was parked at the launch site, and countless people were busy surrounding the aircraft.

I could vaguely hear the sound of a countdown as it went from ten to zero.

"Christen", who was originally lying on the life support device, stood up and said:

"It's time to go."

The next moment, two Christens appeared inside the multi-rotor aircraft, and the violently shaking environment showed that the aircraft was already in a state of rapid take-off.

"Christen", who was seriously injured in the previous moment, quickly removed the bandages on his body and walked to the control panel of the aircraft and started working on it.

Christen knew exactly what this aircraft that had never actually appeared was. It was the last and most likely aircraft she had conceived before meeting Friston.

Relying on the lift provided by the multi-rotor, the fuselage is lifted to the height of the star pod, and then the secondary engine is started here to propel the multi-rotor transformed into a drilling turbine to try to break through the star pod.

If successful, it means that the starry sky will no longer be a constraint on mankind. If failed, it will only mean the sacrifice of Christen Wright.

Thinking of this, Kristen walked to "her" side, pressed a button before she pressed it, and said at the same time:

"You can't do it alone."

"Kristen" immediately gave up this controlled area without saying anything and walked to the other side.

With the cooperation of the two "Christens", the originally violently shaking body finally stabilized.

After doing everything they could, the two Christens looked up at the altimeter in the middle of the console at the same time.

5800

5900

6000

6050

6100

"We're here," Christen said, and before her other "self" could react, she pressed the switch for the second-stage engine.

Accompanied by a shaking that was several times more violent than just now.

The craft rushed into the star pod, reaching a height never reached by the Terrans before.

The value on the altimeter finally stopped at "6152.31".

"So..." "Kristen", who had been silent since waking up, finally spoke: "I succeeded?"

"……Um"

Although I would like to say that this height is just the beginning, the Star Pod cannot break through by relying on the strength of this aircraft and this little energy.

But in the end, Kristen just nodded and confirmed her guess with one word.

"What's outside?" "Kristen" raised her head and looked at the transparent deck that was reserved when the aircraft was built.

"Everything..." Kristen and "herself" looked at the ceiling together, looked at the starry sky behind the ceiling and continued:

"Nothing either."

"...When?" asked Christen, her eyes always fixed on the sky.

"November 1099, 11 in the Terra calendar" Christen knew what "she" wanted to ask.

"Much earlier than I expected." "Kristen" seemed a little surprised at her own answer.

"It's not too early." Kristen said.

During the conversation, the two "Christens" were all looking at the starry sky above their heads, and did not even glance at each other.

"Yes, it's too late." Christen did not deny her statement and then asked:

“What do other people think?”

"Do I care about this?" Kristen asked back.

"I certainly wouldn't care if you weren't here," said "Kristen".

After a brief silence, Kristen replied:

"…the selfish, the betrayer, the loner, the seeker."

In response to these comments, "Kristen" spoke in an indifferent tone.

"Very fitting, a fitting epitaph for a man who brought this upon himself."

"And..." Christen finally turned her attention back to "herself" and said:

"The Pioneer of Civilization"

"...Pioneer...Haha, maybe, it's quite suitable." "Kristen" chuckled.

Along with this light laughter, strands of brilliant star sand flew out of "Christen"'s body, forming a dream that had completely turned into a starry sky.

Sea of ​​stars.

As the sea of ​​stars grew brighter, the body of "Christen" grew dimmer.
