Chapter 1438: Chapter 7: The Last and the First
“Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!”
Lin Xian’s eyes were tightly shut, feeling millions of fine needles penetrating the meninges while twisting, the pain reaching into the bone.
In the midst of intense pain, countless familiar and unfamiliar images flashed through his mind…
It was the life he had undergone, the memories he had long lost.
“Ah…”
With the disappearance of the last trace of electric current, Lin Xian lowered his head, panting heavily.
He remembered.
Remembered everything.
The super catastrophe of 2504 was triggered accidentally; this catastrophe was originally supposed to explode in 2600, and Galileo’s original plan was to trigger it in 2600, but was prematurely activated due to Jask leading the Antarctic expedition.
This shows…
Du Yao guessed right.
Galileo must be hiding in the abandoned military facilities beneath the Antarctic ice sheet, he certainly spent many years transforming the place, placing space-time particle collision devices and hibernation pods.
It can be speculated that the space-time particle collider is not very large, because Antarctica is not easy to develop, indicating the space-time particle collider is different from large particle colliders… they are entirely different devices.
More cunningly, Galileo set up an automatic trigger program in advance, even if he could not wait until his awakening in 2600, as long as someone discovered his shelter early, the space-time particle collider would start ahead of time.
It is because of this reason that the super catastrophe of 2504 was prematurely triggered.
Yet, for some unknown reason.
Like the 2400 version of the super catastrophe, which was far less severe than the 2600 super catastrophe…
The super catastrophe of 2504 wasn’t as severe as the 2600 version either.
At least it didn’t lead to human extinction, there were survivors all over the world, even large intact equipment like airplanes remained.
And Lin Xian, it was because of this catastrophe that he was injured, and before losing consciousness, he escaped into the hibernation pod early, and unexpectedly awoke in 2616.
Looking at it now, the reason for his awakening is roughly speculated.
[Long Hair] and [Big Beard] prove that for the last few years, he hadn’t been in hibernation, only in a deep sleep state, which is why he didn’t awaken; but the life signs had recovered, and the hair and nails were growing normally.
All this was due to the leakage of the hibernation pod filling liquid.
He was choked awake by the hibernation pod filling liquid when he woke up.
By that time, the filling liquid had already turned to room temperature, and the liquid level was very low, no longer sufficient to cover the mouth and nose.
The leakage of this filling liquid should have been very slow, taking over 100 years to leak halfway, causing him to awaken by choking.
He figured out the causes and consequences on the timeline.
But with that came…
More situations that Lin Xian couldn’t comprehend.
The most incredible are three points:
1. Why did the explosion caused by space-time particle collision not only affect real objects but also harm his body?
2. Why after waking up in 2616, did he lose the ability to dream?
As for the third point, it’s not about himself, but…
He slowly raised his head, looking at the young girl in front of him who was only 11 years old, yet to have her 12th birthday—
CC.
The last Millennium Stake, the same facial characteristics unchanged through time, also from Brooklyn, also nicknamed CC.
“V…V?”
CC saw the change in Lin Xian’s gaze after he raised his head, feeling something inside her breaking.
She suddenly felt…
VV seemed like a different person.
Became.
So far from her.
“VV…”
CC felt a chill through her body, as if she already sensed something, but was unwilling to believe it was real, tightly gripping the Bearded Man’s clothes:
“VV, are you… are you okay? You…”
Just like this.
VV held her small and delicate hand, slowly stood up from the ground, and looked around.
First standing bewildered, the ragged slaves, these being the villagers from CC’s village;
Then the armed soldiers holding guns;
Finally, the trembling elderly man standing behind, his wrinkles nearly burying his facial features.
[Liu Feng].
Even if he was aged like an old tree bark, Lin Xian recognized this old partner at a glance.
Thousands of words were stuck, unable to be spoken.
The two just silently stared at each other, breaths growing heavier, yet nothing came out.
Liu Feng’s aged wrinkles, and Lin Xian’s long beard, silently spoke of a hundred years of temporal change.
“East Sea over there…”
Lin Xian first asked:
“Is everything okay?”
The aged Liu Feng slowly shook his head:
“Not good.”
Not good.
These few words made Lin Xian feel heavy-hearted, comprehending everything.
Whether it was Rhein University, or the newly formed Genius Club, they must have suffered heavy losses during the super catastrophe of 2504, right?
It’s even very likely that everyone died, leaving only Liu Feng.
Lin Xian could now clearly guess what the airplanes often appearing over Brooklyn were doing.
What else could they be doing?
Surely, Liu Feng was leading people, using the remaining resources and technology to search for him.
Back then, he, Jask, and VV discussed, not telling everyone about the Einstein Underground Shelter, this secret location known only to the three of them.
In fact, a secret known to three people is already quite a few.
But who would have thought.
Fate is so teasing.
The antarctic expedition team, located in the central region of the space-time particle collision, must have suffered heavy casualties… at least Jask definitely did not survive, otherwise he would know where Lin Xian was hiding.
VV is the same.
The global spread of the blue snow directly eliminated all VV.
Thus, of the only three people knowing the secret of the Einstein Underground Shelter, two died, one slept, the secret was thoroughly sealed on Earth, unknown to anyone.
