"Okay, let's take ten years. If you can complete the reproduction of the ZS bacteria within ten years, then I guarantee you that even if I risk my life, I will create a three-dimensional space for you."
After Ou Mengfeng hesitated for a moment, he decided to take the plunge.
Lai Wenming grinned, his serious expression showing the vitality that seemed to belong to a young man, "Dean Ou, you are being humble. After all, in the previous timeline, you were able to create particle-related particles without having the technical conditions at all.
Where is the bomber?"
Ou Mengfeng waved his hands angrily, "Okay, okay, I don't need you to put a high hat on me."
When Lai Wenming turned around to leave, Ou Mengfeng reminded him fiercely behind his back, "It doesn't matter if you understand the history yourself. This is your own ability. But I have to remind you not to relay what you discovered to anyone."
Others who don’t know. The sage once said..."
"Okay, okay, I know. Everyone has their own different destiny that is changing. So predicting life in advance may not be a happy thing. Right? Even though I am only sixteen years old, it makes sense.
I know a lot."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
Ou Mengfeng waved his hands angrily.
After Lai Wenming left the office, Ou Mengfeng said to himself, "I don't know what height this kid can reach this time."
Although he didn't want to admit it, as a dean, he secretly envied Lai Wenming's achievements.
He knows very well.
Even if he is not old now and is on the same starting line as Lai Wenming, he will never be able to catch up with Lai Wenming's height.
Creating a three-dimensional space is his limit.
But Ou Mengfeng knew that if Lai Wenming succeeded, ZS bacteria would be just the beginning.
"So the sage was right. People without any perseverance really can't bear this blow."
Ou Mengfeng muttered to himself, closed the book and walked out of the room.
He needs to get some air.
It's sunny outside.
The sun is high.
The garden-style Xingfeng Research Institute is surrounded by green trees, with birds flying through the sky and animals running through the forest.
There are sharp peaks scattered among the woods, which are white houses.
When the level of science and technology has reached a new peak in the twenty-sixth century, humans have decorated the earth as if it were ancient times thousands of years ago.
Time and space seem to be a subtle reincarnation.
…
"Commander Glennie, there are still seventy-two hours left, and we will arrive at Methuselah."
A small fleet is sailing slowly through the universe at half the speed of light.
In the command cabin of the New Heart Fire, Sumit, dressed in a sharp military uniform, said to Glennie, who was dozing in the command chair.
Glennie opened his sleepy eyes, "Is that so? Okay, execute plan A."
The so-called Plan A is the most common and conventional development plan formulated by the Imperial Science Department before departure.
The Bonnie fleet will first establish a residential space station colony around the Methuselah planet and launch a rapid racial reproduction plan with the goal of reaching a population of 10 billion within twenty years.
The fleet carries as many as 20 billion frozen embryos.
The tasks of the more than one million crew members accompanying the fleet include conducting on-site scientific research activities and building bases.
In the interstellar age, when humans were unable to master cryonics technology and human life spans could never exceed the five-hundred-year threshold, the importance of frozen embryos in the process of human colonization and expansion has been elevated to unprecedented heights.
Human beings, whose lifespan is short and must face birth, old age, illness and death, can only place their hopes on the next generation if they want to occupy more space in the universe.
Of course, some people desire immortality. In the 24th century, some resource allocators even invested huge sums of money and a lot of manpower and material resources in an attempt to find immortality technology outside of the "Millennium Plan" left by Chen Feng.
Although Chen Feng has long said that eternal life is a foolish dream for human beings, but since it is a dream, some people will always dream it.
These people have tried many different methods, including anti-aging, mind freezing, cryonics, mechanized transformation, cloning and replacement... and so on, but there is still one big problem that cannot be solved.
Human thinking cannot be solidified.
Even if someone does successfully transfer the memory of an elderly person into his cloned brain, the mind will disintegrate within two days, and the cloned human brain will become a bunch of meaningless organisms.
There are also people like Chen Feng who try to convert their thinking to quantization and enter the quantum network. But what is cruel is that the memories of these people are assimilated by data in the quantum network and become the "nutrient" of the stars.
These people's sense of autonomy evaporated.
Their lives have become an insignificant piece of the vast experience of the stars.
Humanity's coveting of eternal life lasted until the end of the twenty-fifth century, when it finally came to an end.
Only then did people fully realize the reality.
"No one" can live forever.
This is the basic law given to human beings by the universe.
Now Glennie seems to be facing the end of his life.
Glennie, who will soon turn 180, looks much older than his peers. His hair has fallen out sparsely, his eyes are cloudy, and his cheeks are red from years of drinking.
He didn't look like a fleet commander at all, but more like a despised old man who was degenerate.
Sumit had made many reports in private, requesting a change of commander, but her applications were all in vain and no one responded.
No one rejected it, and no one gave her a signature.
Sumit was helpless.
This chief of staff must be really frustrated.
She could only secretly rejoice. Thank God, this voyage was only ten years long, otherwise her life would have been ruined here.
Sumit: "Mr. Glennie, our voyage is about to reach its end. Is this all you have to say? Execute Plan A? Over?"
Glennie nodded, "Yeah. What else do you want to say? Want to give an impassioned speech?"
Sumit covered his forehead, "I can't believe it. You are actually the hero who turned the tide on the voyage to Planet K."
Glennie laughed loudly, "Little girl, the universe is so big, of course it is full of wonders, and there are many things you can't believe."
"I've seen your resume. It's clear that you were..."
"A person with a passion for life?"
"Yes."
"People change. Okay, I remember it was written in Plan A that after establishing a colony, you will be transferred to the colonial administrator, right?"
"Yes."
"Very good. Then please use your privileges to prepare a combat-grade small spaceship for me."
"What do you want to do?"
"Go where I should go."
Sumit: "..."
On this side of the earth, Lai Wenming is waving goodbye to many of his close friends and parents.
In these ten years, he not only completed the reconstruction of ZS bacteria, but also completed the theoretical deduction of pseudo-quantum viruses.
Now, he will continue his "dangerous" research in the first complete three-dimensional space in human history that Dean Ou Mengfeng personally built for him.
The three-dimensional space is built inside a palm-sized metal sphere.
The specially made metal ball is somewhat similar to the core of the Mizu.
During Ou Mengfeng's research process, the stable unified cohesion in the core of the Mi clan provided him with a lot of ideas and references.
The metal sphere will be buried in an unnamed asteroid in the Kuiper asteroid belt.
Lai Wenming, now 27, rejected all assistants.
Compared to ten years ago, his figure is slimmer.
In an era where nutrition science is highly developed, it is a miracle that Lai Wenming became as thin as he was.
From now on, Lai Wenming will be alone and isolated from the world until he completes all his unfinished business.
Watching Lai Wenming board the spaceship, Lai Shengyi stepped forward, shook hands with his son, and patted him on the shoulder, but said nothing.
Lai Wenming's mother looked at him longingly, "After a person goes in, he must remember to strictly follow the artificial intelligence's reminders to eat and ensure nutrition. If your body collapses first, nothing can be done."
Lai Wenming nodded, "I understand."
Turn around.
The spaceship takes off.
In two completely different places separated by a dome spanning 190 light-years, two people with different destinies moved in the same direction unknowingly.
