Under Lin Sanjiu's guidance, Mather drove all the way to the downstairs of the apartment on the 38th floor and found a secluded place to stop and rest.
After all, it is a top-notch community, and there are far fewer people than outside. Even in this unrecognizable world, the garden still looks so quiet and unique at this time.
After hesitating for a moment, Lin Sanjiu closed the broken car window and turned on the air conditioner. Now that Zhu Mei was gone... there was no point in saving gas and electricity. The cool environment not only allowed her to recover faster, but also healed the wound on her neck.
It also has the advantage that it will not cause inflammation and infection under high temperatures... But although the reason is very clear, she still felt a little sad when the cold wind blew.
Lu Ze took a look at her expression, sighed and said, "Sister, don't be too sad. Your friend... finally didn't die at the hands of a fallen species..."
After experiencing a life-and-death crisis together, the relationship between the two parties had unknowingly grown closer - Lin Sanjiu felt Lu Ze's kindness, smiled, and after a while said: "Can you please stop calling me eldest sister?"
?I'm really not much older than you... By the way, I haven't had time to introduce myself just now, my name is Lin Sanjiu. Well, I just... just evolved."
"Why is your name so special?" Lu Ze had an expression on his face that said, "I will lose if we compare names," "Then I'll call you Little Bar... By the way, why are you wearing a towel around your neck?"
"Oh!" Lin Sanjiu was reminded, and she hurriedly took off the wet and hot towel, revealing the bloody wound underneath. When Lu Ze saw it, she immediately took a breath of air-conditioning, and Mather also raised her head.
Lin Sanjiu raised his eyebrows and looked at her doubtfully. Lin Sanjiu opened a bottle of purified water, and while cleaning the wound, he told the whole story of Ren Nan's incident - probably these two people had saved her once in a critical moment.
The reason is that Lin Sanjiu is very willing to trust them at this time.
After finishing speaking in a few words, when he looked again, Lu Ze's mouth was wide open with a look of disbelief. Mather had been frowning in silence, and suddenly pointed at the pure water bottle and looked at Lin Sanjiu, who was stunned.
She said, "Let me do it. I have studied medicine for two years after all." After saying that, she found a roll of bandages and some antibiotics from her pocket.
...Does the differentiated personality also have its own complete life experience? Lin Sanjiu glanced at Lu Ze in confusion, said nothing, but obediently raised his head and swallowed two antibiotics. With Mather's technology, no
After a while, the wound on her neck was properly treated.
After listening to the story, Lu Ze was still a little confused: "I have heard of this kind of cannibalism before... But Mather and I have never seen it before, so we always thought it was an urban legend, but we didn't expect it to be true.
This Ren Nan probably just evolved not long ago before you killed him so easily. Otherwise, given time, he would have become so powerful!"
"He shouldn't be from our world. I have never heard of such a person before." Mather said quietly. - After spending half a night together, Lin Sanjiu also figured out that Mather
Although he is unable to fight in actual combat, he is agile, has a calm personality, and has extensive experience(?). He seems to be more reliable than Lu Ze.
"Explain to me what kind of world this is...what's going on? How many worlds are there?" Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but ask Mather.
"Why did you ask Mather but not me..." Lu Ze's unfounded protest sounded beside him. Mather seemed not to have heard and asked Lin Sanjiu a question: "Have you ever heard of the parallel space theory?
?”
Lin Sanjiu said "Ah" and said: "Beyond our universe, there are countless parallel universes - every measurement behavior, or even everyone's different choices, may split, no, create
A new parallel space?”
She has also read a lot of science fiction novels, so she still knows this.
Mather looked calm and nodded and said: "That's right. I don't know how many people there are in your world. There are 4.3 billion people in our world. Every choice that every person makes in their life will have consequences.
Split a new space. If you choose to take the path on the left this morning, then in another space, you will choose the path on the right... And everyone in the new space will continue to create new ones.
Space. Counting this way, no one knows how many 'worlds' there are in total - this number is infinite."
"Originally, we all lived well in our own space and never met anyone from another space in our lives. But for some unknown reason, some parallel spaces began to mutate... just like here."
Taking advantage of Mather's pause, Lin Sanjiu quickly asked: "Is it like here that it has become a high-temperature environment?"
The person who answered her was Lu Ze, who had a rare serious look on his face: "Not necessarily. In our world, it was due to a leak of a virus experiment... More than half of the people died in the plague caused by the virus."
Lin Sanjiu suddenly thought that he might have lost relatives and friends in his own world...
There was silence in the carriage for a few seconds, but Mather broke the silence and continued: "No one can say how many parallel dimensions have mutated at the same time, but what is certain is that this number will never be small. At the beginning, we started from
I survived the virus and evolved. I thought I would just work hard to survive. But——"
Mather paused, as if considering a suitable statement.
"In the 14th month, Luze and I had adapted to the new world full of plagues and fallen species. But at this time, he began to have the same dream over and over again..."
Lu Ze said at the right time: "At that time, I dreamed of a place every night, and this place was always at war...all kinds of wars, real fighting with swords and guns, fighter jets, biological attacks...everyone there...
Everyone was furious. Each side said that the other side was a fallen species. No one knew the truth, but they kept throwing themselves into new wars. Those who refused to go to the battlefield immediately became the public enemy of all mankind.
He will be hunted to death by people all over the world."
Lin Sanjiu had a bad premonition in her heart - sure enough, as soon as Lu Ze stopped speaking, Mather nodded and said: "The 14th month has passed, and on the first day of the 15th month, I
When Lu Ze and I woke up, we found ourselves lying on a battlefield. Can you imagine? We just opened our eyes and didn’t understand where we were, but we were dropped fifty meters away from us.
A bomb..."
"After living hard for 13 months in that war-filled world, I started to dream again..." Lu Ze smiled bitterly and looked at Lin Sanjiu meaningfully.
In the cool air-conditioned air in the car, a drop of sweat ran down Lin Sanjiu's forehead. "This time, you dreamed of a high-temperature world...right?"
Lu Ze sighed, nodded and said, "Yes. Today is the first day of the 15th month. For us, it is also the first day of the first month in this new world." Lin Sanjiu was nervous.
When he opened his mouth and was about to speak, Lu Ze seemed to have guessed what she was going to say: "I'm not the only one who has this kind of dream. In the two worlds, almost all the evolved humans I met will have this kind of dream in the 14th month.
Dreaming. And... everyone dreams about different places."
His heart beat a few times, and Lin Sanjiu couldn't believe it: "So, in 14 months I will also..."
"Go to another 'new world'." Mather said in a positive tone. "Probably because I have a differentiated personality, I am the only one who has never had a dream - I just followed Lu Ze."'
"There's another thing you should know." Lu Ze added, "On the first day of the 14th month, you will have a 'dice dream'. In this dream, there is a huge dice whose appearance is unclear.
The dice will be thrown high into the air and then fall down - on the side facing up after falling, the name of the next world you will go to will be written. The first name I dreamed of was 'Blood dyes the land'
Black', the second name is 'Extreme Temperature Hell'."
Extremely hot hell? Dice? Throwing dice to decide where to go? - One after another unimaginable news filled Lin Sanjiu's brain. She digested it for a while before she suddenly woke up: "Wait a minute... you
I just said that every evolved human being dreams about a different place. In other words, this dice makes random choices in an endless parallel space - "
This means that once she leaves, she may never be able to return to the place where she was born and raised for the rest of her life.
No, it's more than that - this also means that when 14 months are up, Lu Ze and Mather will be sent to who knows which parallel space, and there is a possibility that they will never meet again.
It feels a bit strange to just meet two people you can trust, and then be told to separate right away.
The car glass had already been covered with a layer of fine water droplets - obviously, while talking for a while, the temperature outside had risen again. Lin Sanjiu turned down the air conditioner, and suddenly realized in the silence
Come to a possibility. "Wait a minute, in the parallel space theory, there are countless 'I's. So that means I might meet another me in another world?"
Unexpectedly, Mather shook her head firmly.
"Just like Darwin's theory of evolution, the parallel space theory is just the best explanation of this 'dice world' that we know so far. It is not the truth. But what you just said is exactly this parallel space theory.
A flaw; because in another new world, there is no other you at all."
Lin Sanjiu was in a daze - the amount of information tonight was too great. She couldn't help but lean back in her chair. Her mind was filled with everything about the new world, and she was speechless for a moment.
Suddenly, there was a soft swishing sound in the car. She looked up and saw that the nails on Mather's index finger had turned into long steel armor, and he was looking at her, his eyes shining with expectation: "...
