Wen Rensheng soon spent a month in the city of years.
His status grew higher and higher, and he was appointed as the head of a new department called the "Space Agricultural Research Center."
The new moss he created has been tested by several researchers and is very suitable for surviving in the space environment - where water is limited, oxygen is limited, carbon dioxide is limited, and space is limited.
Now that he is walking on the road, he is greeted with envious looks, and there is an endless stream of people introducing partners to the puppet man.
Wen Rensheng has entered many high-level circles in this city and is trying to get close to the core.
On this day, he took Lu Tong to a banquet, and the participants were all top people in the scientific research circle.
"I heard that people outside are working on smart computers." A white-haired old man said while holding a wine glass.
"What they can't do, from the current theory, can only be weak A, and it is absolutely impossible for a computer to have human consciousness." Another computer scientist said.
"You are right, they are taking shortcuts and using intelligent mysterious creatures combined with existing computer systems to realize intelligent computers."
"They will only be self-defeating, so we can just watch them commit suicide. In this place isolated from time, we can wait quietly until they have completely eliminated the wrong path, and then we can go pick up the apples again." Someone said lightly.
smiled.
Wen Rensheng heard the keyword "time isolation", what does it mean?
The City of Time is actually very weird, with too many things that go against common sense.
For example, since it has been discovered by Xiaohuan's priest, it means that it is not an absolutely confidential place.
Why has it never been famous?
You must know that this is the paradise that geniuses dream of, with unlimited lifespan and unlimited time, which can be used to do unlimited things.
If it were announced, Wen Rensheng even suspected that many aliens would defect and join in.
But there are no aliens recruited here, they are all ordinary people.
Including his puppets, they are actually ordinary people, not aliens.
Wen Rensheng listened to these people's conversation calmly.
Soon someone was chatting with him.
"Where is Director Wen from?" a pretty lady asked, holding up a wine glass.
"I'm from Dongzhou, Mrs. Hans, where are you from?" Wen Rensheng said with a smile.
He recognized the other person. This woman was the wife of genetic scientist Hans, and both husband and wife were engaged in gene editing research.
"I really envy you. I was born locally and have never been outside. My Mrs. Hans's father and my grandfather are both locals." Mrs. Hans said enthusiastically.
Wen Rensheng nodded.
Over the past month, he had learned from other people's conversations that this city had a very long history, but it did not exist in any official archives. It was like a paradise.
Maybe this is what "temporal isolation" means?
During the conversation, suddenly an alarm bell rang in the hall, followed by a majestic man's voice.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chief Steven. A group of robbers has sneaked into our scientific research area. Please stay where you are, don't move around, and wait for our identification and arrest."
Just after hearing his words, people suddenly became panicked. Their original elegance and reserve were gone. They screamed again and again and were at a loss.
"Damn it, are these patrol officers freeloaders? We paid 110 RMB for their work, but there are still robbers?"
"Damn it, everyone hurry up and follow me to the basement to hide!"
"Everyone, please stop running around and enter in an orderly manner!"
"We are all civilized people and we must pay attention to order!"
Wen Rensheng understood why these people were panicking. Although they had a long lifespan, they would still die if they were hit by a bullet or cut into a major artery with a knife.
Soon, under the arrangements of a banquet host and the maintenance of several banquet security guards, everyone finally restored order, took several elevators, and poured into the basement below the banquet hall.
Wen Rensheng was naturally unhurried and followed at the end. He keenly noticed that after everyone entered the basement, the white host who stayed behind had an inexplicable smile in his eyes.
He had so much experience in solving crimes that he knew at a glance that this guy must be with the robbers, and the robbers must have sneaked into the hall.
Connected to the unique currency of this city, one can imagine the true purpose of these robbers...
But he didn't say anything. Instead, the others entered the basement through the elevator.
…
…
The banquet basement is located 200 meters underground and is nuclear, virus and biochemical resistant. It is theoretically an absolutely safe place.
Just the appearance of a group of robbers can scare the shit out of these top people. This is the inevitable consequence of immortality but no power.
Once they make a wrong decision, the losses will be too serious, so they don't want to take any risks.
Everything pursues absolute safety.
Wen Rensheng followed the others into the basement and was arranged to sit on a sofa to rest.
He looked up and saw that there were hundreds of people attending the banquet. At this time, everyone was standing or sitting, and there was more than enough space.
The basement is large enough and well-prepared, with all food and drink supplies provided.
"What happened? I remember don't robbers only exist in slums?"
"Who brought it in?"
"There are still problems with the security strategy."
"I have said before that if we want to abolish ghettos, we must not be too oppressive. Otherwise, no matter how small the chance of unrest is, over a long period of time, it will become an inevitable thing, but those guys just don't listen to me, td,
Now is great!" complained a sociology expert.
"Without slums, how can there be happiness? How many people will be involuntarily involved? Everyone will just lie down and eat relief. Who is willing to work hard to do research and make inventions?" someone objected.
Wen Rensheng sat on the sofa. After a while, Mrs. Hans, who had just been talking to him, squeezed over and sat down next to him.
"Mr. Wen, you don't seem nervous?" Mrs. Hans said with a trembling tone.
"Excessive tension will only hinder survival. We are all scientific researchers, and we must be calm to solve problems." Wen Rensheng said casually.
Anyway, he himself is not here, standing on the dry shore, of course he will not be nervous.
Not long after, Lu Tong also ran over and sat down next to Wen Rensheng.
"I heard that Mr. Wen has a special ability. He can turn people into statues with just one look?" Mrs. Hans asked next.
"It's not turning into a statue. It's just hypnosis. It can make people forget how to act and become dumbfounded."
"No wonder you are not nervous. If the robbers come, you can just hypnotize them." Mrs. Hans breathed a sigh of relief.
Then she disliked the fact that the light in the basement was too bright, so she took out a pair of sunglasses from her pocket and put them on, which added a bit of charm.
At this moment, Wen Rensheng noticed that the white host just now twitched his ears slightly and looked a little nervous.
It seems that he heard Mrs. Hans's conversation.
He was about to speak when suddenly, the white host pulled out a gun, and at the same time, four or five people in the crowd also pulled out guns.
Another gun was pointed at Wen Rensheng's head, and the owner of the gun was surprisingly Mrs. Hans, who had just spoken to Wen Rensheng.
"Mrs. Hans, what are you doing?" Wen Rensheng said pretending to be stupid.
"It's nothing, as long as you obey our arrangements, everything will be over." Mrs. Hans said coldly.
"Okay, what do you want to do?"
"You will know soon!"
During the conversation between the two, the white host suddenly fired a shot at the ceiling, and then said viciously, "Now is the time for robbery. Everyone is only allowed to keep a hundred years of life, and the rest will be traded to me!"
"You are all smart people. It is easy to understand that as long as you are alive, you can earn unlimited lifespan!"
"I will leave you with a hundred years, enough for you to accumulate again."
But here, other scientific researchers screamed one by one.
"Mallett, why do you want to be a robber? Don't you obviously have a good job?" someone shouted to the white host.
"Mrs. Hans, you are also a robber? This is impossible! Your research paper has passed the review and will be taken a step further soon."
"They must be clones! I have been replaced. Otherwise, they would never do such a thing!" A biologist immediately guessed.
"That's it." Everyone suddenly realized.
There are no technical problems with cloning technology, only ethical ones, and this problem does not exist in this city.
