Chapter 21 Chapter 21(1/2)
Ji Yushi didn’t deliberately keep it in the way. Of course, there was no reward if he guessed correctly.
"Actually, when we were forced to jump to PU-31, the Sky System had already given us a very important reminder!" He said quickly, "The key point is still on the Utrodosnake! As I said before, the Utrodosnake is a circle. The traces we left on the circle are in no particular order. No matter which point we look at, they can be cause and effect, so we have never found a breakthrough point in the loop. But-"
Everyone's hearts were suddenly raised to their throats.
Ji Yushi proposed: "What if we start extending with a suitable point and cover the points generated on the ring?!"
I know that everyone doesn’t understand what he means, but it is really difficult to explain it clearly.
Everyone was waiting for the god to continue talking, but the god slowly said to the people beside him: "Tang Le, I'll borrow your communicator."
Ji Yushi and Song Qinglan's communicator were thrown away on the way to be hijacked by a black-faced man.
Because the original mission was only a familiar A-level mission, there were not many backup communicators, only one was prepared. Just now, after the subcutaneous communicators were paired, Song Qinglan was using it as the captain, so Ji Yushi didn't.
"Use mine." As if he had guessed what he was going to do, Song Qinglan had already handed over her, "You keep going."
The sun is scorching.
Everyone returned to the space car, and Song Qinglan asked Duan Wen to continue driving the space car to the Jinwu No. 2 in the mirror position.
On the road, when Ji Yu was on the projection function, I planned to use an intuitive way to explain it.
Everyone suddenly felt that this move was very friendly to these salted fish.
Ji Yushi drew a new ring.
It was obvious that he was a little excited, and his elated face was too dazzling at this moment, making people unable to move their eyes.
"We already know that because of the timeline, the time and space here are fixed. The only thing that changes is us. We are variables, that is, these points." During the rainy season, we chose different colors and typed many points on the white circle in the air. "Every time we are destroyed, we will produce an us, that is, a new point will be generated. For example, this green dot, treat it as the current us."
"We started from a small green dot, passed this red dot - the No. 1 team that was destroyed for the first time, and then passed this yellow dot - the No. 2 team that was about to be destroyed outside the bookstore."
As he said that during the rainy season, the green dot was extended along the ring, making it become an arc close to the ring, passing through the dots representing teams No. 1 and 2 respectively, and overlapping with it.
"You see, during this period, Squad 1 died, but Squad 2 has not yet, so we and Squad 2 exist at the same time. This is the overlap of time and space we just mentioned, right?"
Everyone nodded.
"This understands."
"Know."
It seemed like some strange class in another world, everyone was very focused.
Ji Yushi continued: "In a short time, Team 2 will be destroyed, but we are still moving forward."
The arc extended by the green dot continues to lengthen along the ring for a period before stopping.
Then, he added a blue dot where the green dot started.
"The blue dot represents Squad 5."
During the rainy season, the blue dots were also drawn along the ring into an arc, allowing the blue line to pass through the red dots representing Team 1, the yellow dots representing Team 2, and the green line representing their present moments until it exceeds the direction of the green line extension.
"Squad No. 5 exists because we were destroyed, so they have absorbed the memories and experiences left by these points in front of us. Now they are ahead of us and live longer than we do, so they can leave us clues to ensure we can see."
Song Qinglan understood what he meant: "You mean that the phenomenon of space-time overlap we just discussed may have overlapped a few times. At least there are team No. 2 in the current time period, and we, and team No. 5 at the same time?"
Ji Yushi nodded and pointed to the green line and said, "Because we are in the third cycle, the cognitive range is in such a short period of time as the green line, so we don't know how many times we have been killed or how many times we have started after we have been killed. That is not within our imagination."
Zhou Mingxuan couldn't help but say, "Why aren't there probably countless us in this period of time, distributed in different positions in the ring? That is to say, in 24 hours a day, there may be three teams at two o'clock, five teams at four o'clock, and eight teams at seven o'clock?"
Ji Yushi: "Yes."
Overlapping time and space will cause loops to overlap continuously during the same time period.
Thinking about it carefully is extremely scary.
Everyone was shocked.
Li Chun raised his hand: "I have a problem."
This time, Li Chun has worked very hard, and he asked everyone's most concerned questions: "Guest Ji, did you not tell Team Song before that Team 3 was created because Team 2 was destroyed, and Team 4 was created because Team 2 avoided Team 3's space car and accidentally opened a parallel timeline. The generation of Team 3 and Team 4 is related to Team 2, so Team 3 and Team 4 can contact each other, but cannot contact Team 2. Because that will change the trajectory of Team 2 and erase our existence."
Everyone nodded.
They couldn't help but stare at the short green line on the ring because it was all they had at the moment.
Li Chun continued to ask: "Then the emergence of Team No. 5 must be because we destroyed them. Why do they contact us? Are they not afraid that they will no longer exist if they change our trajectory?"
"You are right." Ji Yushi said, "After changing our trajectory, the causal relationship is disrupted. Not only will the team No. 5 disappear, but all the points in this circle will change and form a new causal effect."
Li Chun asked: "But Consultant Ji, if we don't destroy the team, there will be no team No. 5, and there will be no clues they left to us, and we will not see them. Isn't this another paradox?!"
The blind student finally discovered Huadian. Ji Yushi was relieved that this was a counterattack of the poor student!
To answer this question, Ji Yushi asked Song Qinglan: "Captain Song, do you remember that we saw two of my medicine boxes in the bookstore?"
Song Qinglan nodded.
Ji Yushi: "One has been eaten and the other has not been eaten, which means it is not the product of the same timeline. The medicine box that has been taken with two medicines may be another cycle. I was left there after you were knocked on me by you, but we arrived at the bookstore earlier in that timeline, and it is very likely that it was Team 5."
Wall-bang?!
Tang Le and Li Chun, who had seen this incident with their own eyes once, kept silent.
Others: "???"
Song Qinglan: “…”
The topic cannot be misinterpreted, Song Qinglan pulled it back: "Then?"
"Two timelines exist at the same time." Ji Yushi said: "Just like we meet Team 2, as long as Team 2 has not yet been destroyed, we can see all their traces, and they can naturally see us."
"I understand. On the other hand, as long as we have not reached the point where our team was destroyed, and the people from Team 5 are not dead, we can receive their information!"
"The paradox that Chun'er said has not happened yet!"
"I get it, this is simply a bug!"
Everyone said wonderingly: "But if our trajectory has changed, they will eventually disappear. Why did Team 5 do this?"
"Because they want our team to continue." Song Qinglan understood, and he spoke, "It is very likely that it is because the energy sources of the two bases need to be closed, and there is a danger on the way. Team No. 5 is seriously insufficient staff. For them, we now have four teams with parallel timelines, and can form two teams of ab, which is the most suitable point on the ring to be 'extended'."
"That's right." The smile on Ji Yushi's face flashed, "As Team Song said before, even if we stretched into the seemingly endless cycle, we don't look back and keep moving forward. Starting from Team No. 5, we will continue to explore clues for us now. Even if it disappears, the newly generated No. 6 and No. 7 will also explore clues for us. Then, we will continue to disappear in the future, and at this moment, we, that is, this green line, will extend infinitely on the ring, covering all points that have appeared or have not appeared - until the task is completed!"
This passage is gentle and passionate, echoing in everyone's hearts for a long time and it is difficult to calm down.
It is hard to imagine how many self-she will be rushing forward in the future!
They never look back, even if they die or suffer, they try hard to leave valuable clues in order to allow their past selves to break through the cycle and thus break through the deadlock!
When Song Qinglan faced Ji Yu, she had an unconcealed appreciation in her eyes: "Guest Ji, this is what you said to be breaking the deadlock."
"It's just one of them." Ji Yushi's black eyes were bright, "There's another point. If we can arrive at Jinwu No. 2 in time, we might get the answer immediately."
*
Outside the Jinwu No. 2 base.
This place looks almost exactly the same as the Jinwu No. 1 base. Except for the unimaginable tall giant round bowl building, there is a wasteland around it.
The difference is that a group of zombies in white work clothes have been electrocuted after the five-meter-high high-voltage barbed wire.
Hearing the sound of the car driving, a wave of new zombies gathered from the open space, stepping on the charred corpses of similar types and heading forward and forward on the barbed wire mesh.
The security equipment at the entrance of the base was also running, but the gate was broken, and zombies rushed out of the entrance, and were crushed into blood mud by the whistling space car on the spot.
The space car drove all the way into the round bowl.
The lights in the huge building were dazzling, and two blood marks were scattered on the white floor. Broken arms and limbs were scattered.
A space car parked more than ten meters ahead, with the back door wide open. From a distance, even the scene inside the car was exactly the same as their space car.
Duan Wen: "Captain Song, is it the car of Team 5?!"
Song Qinglan: "Yes."
Ji Yushi said that he had arrived at Jinwu No. 2 in time was expected, and the people from Team No. 5 were still alive!
"Huh—"
In the room where there was almost no sight, the glass door flashed in the distance, and a group of zombies rushed towards him.
When I rushed to the front of the space car, I saw pale faces and off-white pupils on the glass, the mouths with rotten gums and blood-stained white work clothes, it is not difficult to imagine how tragic and terrifying the scene was during the disaster here.
Song Qinglan: "Everyone is ready to get off the car."
Everyone was acting, Ji Yushi stood up, looked for the mineral water in the car, and swallowed another painkiller.
It has only been a few hours since he was injured. He has not eaten or had a good rest on the road. The medicine he took before may not be of use.
In this case, no one asked the injured to stay in the car, and Ji Yushi obviously did not intend to do that.
Check the Diamond Bird during the rainy season and replenish the energy magazine: "We should go directly to the control room!"
Song Qinglan replenished her equipment and put her combat uniforms in her pockets.
"Listen to Consultant Ji, just open a road and go to the control room." He said in a deep voice, "Be careful of clues on the road, and don't shoot any suspicious living person for the time being. Don't accidentally break yourself up!"
Everyone: "Yes!"
Open the space car and a well-equipped team came out one after another.
To be continued...
