"boom--!"
Accompanied by an earth-shaking roar, Ye Shi felt as if his consciousness had been blown out by a truck, and he was in a trance, as if he were watching a slide show through frosted glass.
The scientific research ship seemed to have hit something, and then he saw boiling flames and an anxious face. And then——
The cockpit suddenly became dark.
The darkness that he couldn't see shrouded everything, swallowing up all the light like a black hole. Then, his consciousness also fell into the abyss that could not be seen.
It's impossible to say which one happened first, or maybe both happened at the same time.
Instead of being disconnected, he fell into a coma in the game. This was probably the first time Ye Shi encountered such a weird situation after playing the game for so long.
And this coma feeling is also very strange. His consciousness has not been cut off, but he cannot connect to his five senses. Could it be that the coma function has not been implemented yet?
Ye Shi tried to analyze it in his mind, but based on his understanding of A Guang, this possibility was very small. In this way, there was only one possibility——
Triggered the plot by myself!
Thinking of this, Ye Shi, who was facing the "black hole", had no fear in his heart, but instead had a faint expectation. However, it didn't take long for that expectation to turn into anxiety during the long wait.
Even panicked.
He thought that he was not the only one on that scientific research ship. There was also that guy...
A trace of throbbing surged into his heart, and Ye Shi couldn't help but curse. "Damn...what the hell happened?"
Of course he couldn't make a sound.
Pure consciousness echoed in the nothingness that was more empty than vacuum, and all he could hear was soundless silence. After an unknown amount of time, a faint sound finally reached his "ears".
"Thumping..." That seemed to be his heartbeat.
The faint sound was like the rain after a long drought, which made the restless Ye Shi feel a burst of ecstasy.
He used all his strength to stretch out his non-existent hand, grabbed the straw floating on the water, and chased after the trance-like voice with all his strength.
To me—— wake up!
He shouted silently in his heart.
Even though he wasn't sure if what he was doing meant anything. Maybe he was just pushing hard against a wall - maybe he was actually dead.
The perseverance and hard work seemed to have finally paid off. The darkness seemed to be no longer so dark, replaced by a blur of gray.
The lost five senses seem to be returning, and more and more sounds are coming through the invisible fog. First, hearing.
Then there's touch.
However, what he didn't expect was that a bone-chilling coldness enveloped his whole body the moment he regained his sense of touch, making him shiver from the cold.
So cold...
It feels like falling into an ice cave.
At this moment, Ye Shi only had this thought in his mind. Just as he was about to blurt out, "I'm freezing to death," he heard intermittent sounds blowing on the gray mist.
The sound came from a very close place.
In order to hear more clearly, he involuntarily held his breath, but still only heard a few words. "Ye Shi..."
"It's so cold here." "Ah--" "I..." I...what?
Before Ye Shi could carefully hear what the voice was saying, dazzling white light shone on his retinas for an instant. The shining light almost blinded him, causing him to subconsciously raise his arms to cover it.
And as he raised his hand, the fine ice shards were carried out by his sleeves and splashed on his face, making him groan uncontrollably.
"ah……"
The cold touch made him tremble again, and the noisy sound amplified in an instant and became extremely clear, pouring into his ears.
"He's awake."
"What kind of clothes is this guy wearing..." "I've never seen it."
"How can you lie down in a sleeping cabin like this... What a nonsense." There were whispers around him.
They all spoke the Chinese couplet, but their pronunciation was slightly different from that of the Wastelanders, making their words more formal and rounded. Ye Shi slowly moved his arm in front of him and looked around.
I saw him lying in a sleeping cabin with the hatch open and a spacious hall surrounding him.
Soft incandescent light shines on the silver-gray alloy floor tiles, and the surrounding walls and ceiling seem to be made of alloy, but they do not appear cold or lacking in emotion.
Since there is no window that can directly see the outside, Ye Shi cannot confirm where he is. But there is no need to confirm...
There is no doubt that this is the Orion guided missile cruiser.
But what confused him was the group of people standing in front of him.
The crowd of heads blocked the entrance to the room. A rough count included at least fifty or sixty people. Those pairs of eyes were staring at him intently, some were filled with worry, some were filled with curiosity, and some were out of curiosity.
Sympathy or other inexplicable emotions.
At this time, a man wearing a military exoskeleton walked through the crowd and walked in front of him, staring directly into his eyes with a pair of sharp eyes.
"who are you?"
Ye Shi did not answer, but silently lowered his head and glanced at his chest. He was only wearing a blue jacket, and the "Xia Guang" power armor was gone.
Then he raised his head and looked at the people in front of him, and saw that they were wearing silver-gray clothes, which were similar to those in the academy, but not exactly the same, and on their arms were the armbands of the People's Federation of Aerospace Forces.
At eleven o'clock in the night, I felt that my imagination was a bit insufficient, and I froze on the spot.
But soon, the man standing in front of him woke him up and repeated it in a serious tone, "Tell me your name, identity, and purpose."
As if they felt that his tone was too harsh, the other crew members standing nearby criticized the guy in turn. "Hey, don't scare other people's children."
"Looking at him, it's obvious that he doesn't know why he is here."
At this time, a beautiful elder sister squatted in front of him, looked at him with concern and asked, "Are you okay?"
Black hair swayed not far in front of her, and under the thin bangs was a face with soft lines but heroic appearance. Ye Shi was a little confused.
Although he is indeed quite young, he is not called a child. His Adam's apple twitched and he said.
"I'm... not sure." This is the truth.
He really couldn't figure out what was going on.
The older lady was not discouraged, looked into his eyes with bright eyes, and said patiently.
"My name is Lin Youyou, and I am the seventh department of this starship...that is, the doctor on duty at the Medical and Life Support Department. We don't mean any harm, can you tell me your name?"
"Ye ten..."
When he heard the name, the man standing aside with his arms folded whistled and joked. "It sounds like a code name."
Another crew member also said with a smile.
"Hey, I don't think this kid looks like a civilian. Do you think he is a spy of the slime mold protection organization?" "Although it sounds a bit nonsense, we cannot rule out this possibility."
The man wearing the exoskeleton obviously felt the same way. He stared at Ye Shi intently. Although his hand was not holding the gun, it was placed not far away from the weapon.
"Shut up."
Lin Youyou turned back and glared at the two of them, warning them to shut up, and then looked at Ye Shi again. "Tell sister, is this your name?"
Ye Shi's face turned red, but he insisted on insisting again.
"This is my name... Of course, the name my parents gave me is Ye Wei." There is no need to say the complete nickname, and no one usually calls such a long list of names, which will only increase unnecessary misunderstandings and
The cost of communication.
He is interesting enough.
He even confessed his real name in reality.
What Ye Shi didn't expect was that after he said that he had two names, the people around him relaxed a little on their guard.
At this time, he suddenly remembered that the background introduction of "Wasteland OL" mentioned in an inconspicuous chapter that it was very popular in the People's League era to give oneself a new name after adulthood.
This is a bit like the circle names of people in niche cultural circles in reality. Many people use online names to communicate on a daily basis. Except for sending and receiving express delivery, they rarely use their real names a few times throughout the year, so that even pronouncing their own names feels strange.
Seemingly believing what he said, Lin Youyou looked into his eyes and continued, "Are you injured?"
"Maybe... I'm not sure," Ye Shi vaguely underestimated, sitting up straight in the sleeping cabin, "My mind is very messed up... I'm not in a good state... It's weirdly cold here, okay.
Please let me come out first, I don’t want to lie down and talk.”
"We are planning to do this, but I have to make sure you are not injured first... Come, let me help you."
Looking at Ye Shi who straightened up, Lin Youyou stood up from the ground and reached out to help him out of the sleeping cabin. "Thank you."
Ye Shi, who emerged from the trivial ice slag and stood with his feet on the ground, politely thanked him. Then he turned his gaze to his feet and looked around, his expression gradually becoming astonished.
"We...are we on Earth?"
Hearing these words, the surrounding crew members exchanged glances, including Lin Youyou's eyes that became a little strange.
However, the gentle voice did not change. She still looked at Ye Shi with her sincere eyes and asked softly, "Why do you think we are on earth so much?"
"Isn't this obvious?" Ye Shi stomped on the ice on his shoes and replied without thinking, "There is gravity here... and it's no different from when it's on the ground, isn't it?"
Lin Youyou was stunned.
Several people nearby were also stunned.
As if he heard something funny, a burst of laughter came from the crowd. "I guess this is the first time this kid has traveled far away. He has never heard of artificial gravity."
Seeing Ye Shi looking at him, the man with short yellow hair and a long face smiled and said hello. "Kola, the engineering director of the fourth department... cough, I mean the engineering and maintenance department."
There was no hint of any malice in that hearty smile.
These guys seemed to like joking more than the players. Ye Shi suddenly felt that it was him, the player, who seemed a little cautious.
"Koala...is that an animal?" the man said with a smile.
"Haha, that's right! That guy is my mascot and saved my life when I was a child." Ye Shi suddenly wondered how this guy was saved by a koala when he was a child.
But before he could ask, the man in the exoskeleton coughed, interrupting their banter.
"This is a military area after all, and an unknown person has appeared. I think it's better for us to be more serious." When he said this, the man stared at Ye Shi with a serious expression and continued. "How did you break in?
Entered here?"
"How do I know?" Ye Shi patted his head and couldn't help but complain, "Damn... is there a bug?"
Stumbled into a map that Aguang hadn't made yet? Or--
Is it just stuck here?
He patted his head hard again, trying to wake himself up from this weird dream.
The doctor named Lin Youyou looked at him worriedly and wanted to stop his movements, but the latter reached out and pushed him away. The man in the exoskeleton frowned and stared at this guy pretending to be crazy.
"You don't know? You don't know how you got here?" Ye Shi complained.
"That's right! I don't know anything. I was originally on a scientific research ship... It's the kind of spaceship that can barely fit thirty people into it. But when I opened my eyes, I found that I was in a sleep cabin.
Then there were you all standing around, looking at me like a koala in a zoo!”
The guy named Koala touched the bridge of his nose in embarrassment, and as if reflecting on himself, he underestimated "Is there any?", then scratched his head and muttered "Sorry".
The others also exchanged glances with different expressions and whispered something in a low voice. Only the man in the exoskeleton still stared at him with sharp eyes.
That gaze was like a sharp knife, its edge revealed from the restrained scabbard. "You'd better tell the truth."
It's not like Ye Shi was frightened, so he wouldn't let this guy go and retorted him unceremoniously.
"What I'm telling you is the truth! It's you who refuse to tell the truth! What about Seven Parts, Four Parts... I'm totally confused! Come on, are you gods or people from the Enlightenment Society?"
That guy is still on the research ship.
He was lucky that what he heard just now was her voice! He had to go back and save her!
The man wearing the exoskeleton was stunned for a moment, and the sharpness in his eyes was restrained. "Heavenly being? Enlightenment meeting? What is that..."
He has never heard of these two words at all. The only enemy of the Human League is Gaia.
There are also those radical organizations that betrayed humanity and tried to hand over the prosperous world to Gaia. Ye Shi's chest heaved violently, breathing heavily as he stared at the guy in the exoskeleton.
He suddenly felt that this person looked familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Lin Youyou stared at the suddenly manic young man in front of her, and then glared sternly at the man wearing an exoskeleton.
"That's enough, he is my patient. I know you have your difficulties, but at least let me cure his disease first -" "I am not a patient! I am not sick!"
…
Not crazy either!"
Interrupting her mid-sentence, Ye Shi stared at the man in the exoskeleton and continued word by word. "I am Ye Shi! Ye Shi of the Alliance! Ye Shi of the Burning Corps! Stop talking to me.
I'm playing a riddle. I've told you my identity. Now, tell me immediately! Who are you?"
The surrounding air became quiet. And it was completely quiet.
However, the silence did not last long, and the whispers soon spread again. "... Alliance?"
"The Burning Legion?" "What is that?"
“Does the People’s Federation have such an establishment?”
"Are you kidding? How could it be possible?"
"This kid must have damaged his brain by playing games."
"Wait a minute, his clothes... look a bit like those in the shelter's brochure." "Real or fake?"
"Even if it's true, there's nothing surprising about it. It's just a blue variable-temperature jacket. I might have two sets in my closet."
The whispering voice made Ye Shi freeze on the spot, as if his brain had been struck by lightning. Alliance...
never heard of that?
A terrifying idea suddenly appeared in his mind. Could it be that he... traveled through time?!
Not one
This sounds too ridiculous.
He would rather believe that he is locked in some virtual space similar to the Matrix, and the purpose is to squeeze his memory.
If this inference is correct, it at least means that Jiang Xuezhou is still alive.
In the crowd, a tall and thin man with flat glasses on the bridge of his nose rubbed his chin with his index finger, staring at the young man standing in the middle of the crowd with an expression that had seen a ghost.
His name is Wu Xinghuan, he is the leader of the fifth department of the Orion guided missile cruiser, the space science team of the Ministry of Science and Technology, and he is also a Ph.D. in physics.
In order to cope with the weird and changeable cosmic environment, each starship of the People's Union will be equipped with at least one theoretical physicist, who is responsible for conducting scientific-level risk assessments of some strategic deployments and navigation actions that may be risky.
To put it simply, it is similar to the ship's chaplain in the early Age of Discovery.
After all, if something happened beyond the scope of human cognition, it would be difficult for a mere theoretical physicist to do anything. At most, he could comfort everyone.
He hadn't said a word since just now, but now he was mumbling something to himself. "Could this guy... be..."
No--
This is too unbelievable.
At this moment, the impact on his brain was no less than that of the young man in front of him who was confused about the situation, so that his cognition, knowledge and even beliefs were shaken...
A "time traveler" stood in front of him and told him what would happen in the future. This was ridiculous!
The education he has received and the research he has conducted have repeatedly warned him of an iron law, and this iron law has never been falsified -
The passage of time may be uneven in different spaces, but it must be irreversible! There is no reason for this.
Because time is not an objective thing in the universe, it is just a human-defined scalar used to record the movement of matter and the sequence of changes.
If time is reversible and "things that happen later" happen before "things that happen first", then the concepts of first and last lose their meaning.
In other words, if time is reversible, then time itself does not exist...
Stretching out his trembling index finger, Wu Xinghuan took off the plain glasses on the bridge of his nose, took out the glasses cloth and wiped them vigorously before putting them back on so that he could see more clearly.
He couldn't wait to return to Earth immediately and announce this amazing discovery to everyone! At this moment, Dr. Wu was the only one who thought of the possibility of "time travel".
Most people present, including the "time traveler" himself, may not realize what happened.
Seeing the guy pretending to be crazy, the man in the exoskeleton decided to end the riddle and stared into his eyes and said.
"This is the guided missile cruiser Orion. My name is Luo Yi. I am a noncommissioned officer of the space combat team under the weapons and defense department, with the rank of sergeant."
"You said I didn't tell you anything. Now I tell you who we are and where we are. I advise you to honestly explain your own problems and tell me how you appeared here. Frankly speaking, you may still be able to
Get leniency." Luo Yi...
Hearing this name, Ye Shi felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the murderous intent in his body was instantly released. He said how he felt that he had seen this guy before.
I spent a long time in the memory fragment of the disciple of the Enlightenment named Flynn. The disciple of the Enlightenment who hijacked the scientific research ship.
He's also the guy who fired the neutron torpedo at them!
Apparently aware of the murderous intent, Luo Yi looked stunned and his right hand had already landed on the stun gun. However, before his hand could touch the stun gun, a roaring fist flew towards him.
"Oh my God!!!"
The speed was so fast that people had no time to react, but Luo Yi was an active soldier after all, and he was also a soldier who had undergone genetic and prosthetic modifications. He even wore a military exoskeleton, so it was naturally impossible for him to be knocked down by a punch.
The fist hit his exoskeleton, and the incredible impact made him subconsciously take half a step back. Luo Yi's eyes let out a brilliant light.
"You are indeed not a civilian -" "I am your father!"
Ye Shi roared angrily, and the flashing arc of electricity penetrated the air, lashing towards him like a whip. There were screams of surprise around him, and everyone stepped back.
"No! Calm down!" Lin Youyou exclaimed, trying to pull them apart, but was held back by a colleague on the side.
Ye Shi didn't pay any attention to the shouts from the side.
He had avoided irrelevant people, and the only person he wanted to kill was the guy in front of him! However, what he didn't expect was that the other party seemed to have predicted his attack, and easily blocked the flashing arc with a raised hand.
.
The exoskeleton seemed to have the ability to absorb static electricity, and Ye Shi's heart sank slightly.
Blocking this ferocious fatal blow, Luo Yi, who had his arms in front of him, did not hesitate to kneel forward, attacking his chest with lightning speed.
Although he had predicted the attack from the opponent, Ye Shi had just woken up from a coma, and his body did not keep up with his brain's reaction, so he took the blow firmly on his chest.
The huge impact pushed him backwards and hit the open sleeping cabin sideways, almost causing him to fall off the line.
But what surprised him was this - he didn't actually get disconnected.
Wait. Could it be...
Ye Shi's face suddenly changed when he realized something, and at this moment, a gun was pointed at his head.
"Prosthetic modification, bionic model, and installed with attack plug-ins. I admit that this is cool, you can discharge electricity with just a snap of your fingers, but you are breaking the law, boy." Luo Yi held the pistol and looked down at him, "I originally wanted to go with him.
Do you want to have a good conversation, or do you prefer this kind of conversation?"
i#%#0,
Ye Shi cursed and uttered a real-life swear word, then closed his eyes and muttered silently to log off. In fact, there was no need to mutter silently.
After playing "Wasteland Online" for so long, he has already mastered the knack of going online and offline, and can return to the real world with just a thought.
However, something unexpected happened to him. And that was what he was most worried about.
The heavy touch did not appear on the top of his head, but gushed out from between his brows and spread throughout his body. He was still online, but his body felt as heavy as lead, just like before waking up from the hibernation chamber.
Ye Shi, who had never experienced such a situation before, was completely panicked and almost knelt down to Planner Gou. "Fuck! Brother Guang, please don't mess with me!"
