Chapter 455: Traveling Through the ‘Future’
Moqiong and his party went down the elevator and came to an extremely open assembly workshop.
Here, a huge vehicle as high as 35 meters was parked on a landing gear.
It looked like a mecha, but it didn't have any sense of science fiction. It looked like a humanoid crane and an excavator.
"Is this for me?" Moqiong saw at a glance that this was a powerful "crossbow".
Canaan nodded and said, "You sit in it and control the mechanical arm to easily move 400 tons of weight. If it is lifted at full power, its maximum load-bearing capacity is 600 tons."
But then Canaan shook his head and said, "It's not that it can't be bigger, but the incident happened in a hurry. We temporarily requisitioned a heavy assembly machine from the Mars Project and transformed it into this."
Moqiong asked, "What do you need me to exile?"
Canaan said seriously, "Maybe you have always thought that exiling all the containment to another world is a once-and-for-all containment method."
"But in fact, we have to consider more, such as the God of Gaia, that thing may break through containment at any time. It is easy to exile it, but it is a creature with high intelligence and superpowers, and it can appear anywhere in the Earth's oceans. One place, this is an absolute characteristic. We have reason to believe that even if it is exiled, it can come back instantly. In other words, exiling it is equivalent to unsealing it. "
"There is also δ-58, the king of Antarctica, a huge iceberg creature, which will bring a quick freezing environment wherever it goes, and it is almost immortal. Unless we melt the entire Antarctica, we can only use a large number of missiles every day to continuously suppress it and confine it to the vicinity of the South Pole. But... we can't exile it either, because it is also bound to the South Pole in some way. Its movement is equivalent to magnetic pole deflection. If it is exiled, the earth is equivalent to losing one pole of the magnetic field, which is not a good thing..."
"There is also Ω-169, the chess game of destruction. It is a chess game. Every certain period of time , a human will be randomly selected to play against the chessboard, with the human playing black. If the black chess piece wins in the end, the chessboard will be reset. If the white chess piece wins, the universe will be reset. In other words, the survival of all beings depends on a "man-machine battle". Of course, this consequence was said by the chess player, but we ruled out the possibility that the chess player lied, because he was just an ordinary person. Through mind reading, we determined that he was suddenly implanted with the memory of losing the world when he was teleported to the chessboard. "
"So far, forty-five years have passed, and the game has not yet been completed. Because we can't win at all... We combine the wisdom of humans and computers, but we are always at a disadvantage, so we resorted to cheating and replaced a key chess piece. That was the most regrettable step we took, because The chessboard also cheated, and the cheating was even more ruthless. It directly turned the unused black pieces into white pieces. The chess game must use its chess pieces. It is a very strange substance that we cannot copy or modify, so... it is a losing game. The black player can only play white pieces. What else can we do? "
"The only way is to delay. Now it has been delayed for forty-five years. The chess player is already eighty-five years old. Once he dies, the black player will lose. Although we use various methods to prolong his life, there is no immortal in the world."
"We don't know if exiling this chessboard will reset other universes instead. We don't dare to gamble at all."
Canaan said several examples of useless exiles in a row, and Mo Qiong became more and more upset as he listened.
Some exiles can come back, and exiling them is equivalent to releasing them.
Some containment objects are bound to somewhere on the earth or to certain ethnic groups. Exiling them is even worse.
And most of them are containment objects that dare not gamble at all. There can't be any accidents.
The doomsday chessboard is one, and the Zerg Queen is also one.
Like the Zerg Queen, even if she is exiled, she should be able to come back. She is a time bomb. If she suddenly gets upset one day, humans will be dead. The Blue and White Society dare not touch her at all.
And almost all Omega containment objects are in an extremely delicate state. If there is a slight mistake, it will be the kind of destruction. If the tolerance rate is less than 100%, it is better to maintain the status quo.
The act of exiling Omega-level containment objects is almost the same as scientists speculating that nuclear bombs can destroy aliens, so they drop nuclear bombs on aliens who have not invaded for the time being but have the ability to destroy the earth. This is a decision that no rational government would make.
Moqiong's exile method can only be used as a retreat. When the existing balance is broken, it will be a last resort.
Eliminate those who dare not move, exclude those that are useless if moved, exclude those that are worse if moved...
Even like Taotie, it is impossible to get close.
In the end, there are only a few dozen containment objects that are necessary and can be exiled, most of which are in the beta to gamma stage.
Canaan said: "Exiling a contained object is not just throwing it away. For example, I really don't dare to let the multiplying wax figure multiply indefinitely in another world. It's better not to let it go if it can be left alone."
"My idea is to continue the containment maintenance, but just move the location to another world, so that even if the containment fails, it will not be on Earth."
"Also, we must ensure the recycling ability, that is, we can regret and take it back after exiling it."
"So your first task is to exile her."
As he said, Canaan pointed to a tall woman who walked down from the other end of the passage.
Seeing this woman, Gou Ye's mouth twitched.
Mo Qiong raised his eyebrows and recognized that this was Sister You.
"Hello Mo Qiong, I'm Gongsun You." The woman smiled.
Mo Qiong hurriedly shook hands with her and said, "Hello Sister You."
Gou Ye said depressedly at the side: "Dean Canaan... you won't let me merge with her, will you?"
Canaan said: "That's all. This is the recycling method with the least side effects."
Gou Ye felt embarrassed and sighed: "Any two people can fuse, why do you have to find us two?"
Canaan said seriously: "You know, if you are not a soul mate, fusion will have serious mind-distorting side effects. One of you will be assimilated into the mind of the other and lose all personality. Xiaogou, please be serious."
Gou Ye immediately said loudly: "Yes!"
Sister You said deliberately from the side: "I have no problem."
Mo Qiong touched his Adam's apple and said, "Fusion? Could it be..."
Canaan smiled and said: "Yes, those are a pair of earrings. If two creatures wear them separately, they will be forced to merge into a new individual. They may not inherit the advantages of both parties, and may be deformed, but they must have absolute characteristics. Of course. , the compatibility of soul mates will be very good, the fusion of Xiao Gou and Xiao You is a very perfect individual, so this experiment requires them. "
Mo Qiong did not expect such a thing to exist, and immediately said: "The earrings are held by two people respectively. Even if one of them is in another world, once they are both worn, they will be in the same place because of the fusion?"
"Using this method to bring back members who have traveled through time? But how to ensure that it must be the return from another world, not the past on this side of the earth?"
Canaan asked an assistant to fetch a box and opened the box. Inside were two earrings, one red and one blue.
Without him having to say anything, Master Gou said: "This is very simple, because the fused individual must be in the position of the wearer of the red earrings."
Canaan nodded and said: "I have even chosen the place to travel. The productivity is one era ahead of ours. According to the testimony of the travelers, it was the Earth in 2098 AD."
"What! The future?" Mo Qiong asked in shock.
Canaan shook his head and said: "It's not the future in the narrow sense. There is no Blue and White Society in that world, and there are no containment objects. It is the earth of another world, which has evolved seventy-six years longer than ours. It can be regarded as a possibility for our future. , or it can be said to be one of the consequences of a world without contained objects.”
Mo Qiong said: "You choose a future world from the beginning. Do you plan to obtain their technology?"
Canaan said: "Yes, through some of the equipment on the time traveler, we can determine that the civilian technology of that world is already slightly higher than ours, let alone cutting-edge technology. We must know that our technology leads the world, and the technologies of other countries around the world Cutting-edge technology is actually decades ahead of civilian technology circulating in society.”
Mo Qiong was shocked: "You want to obtain their military technology? Isn't it too dangerous? How about starting with a relatively backward target first?"
Canaan smiled and said: "You said before that you once traveled to a witchcraft world. You almost crushed it by yourself, and gained some extraordinary knowledge. You can also inject similar spiritual energy into the earth from there. But our world has an iron limit after all, and that knowledge is far less important than technological knowledge.”
"If we just want a place to house the containment objects, we can settle in a primitive world and use the resources and land there to build containment bases."
"But what about the problem of going to work? Even if we still have some ways to recycle members across time and space, we can't station too many members in a different world."
"Training local people is one way, but it takes time. In this future world, there are very efficient intelligent systems. Although they are not yet so-called intelligent life, they are not fundamentally different from our AI technology, but the technology is more mature than ours. Much higher. As long as we get the energy technology, AI management technology, and nano production lines of that world, we can open unmanned bases in each deserted world and cooperate with some local people. We can maintain the security of the containment almost only by observation. If an accident occurs, send a commissioner to deal with it, or simply abandon the base without causing casualties on your own side."
Mo Qiong took a deep breath. In this way, he would not allow the contained objects to wreak havoc in other worlds, suppressing them, but also keep the contained objects under control, and not occupy a large number of his own manpower.
He said: "These technologies will also be of great help to our society. Our containment bases on the earth also need these technologies... I know what you mean. I am just worried that in the face of an earth civilization that is much more technologically advanced than ours, Members are in danger, and technology is not easy to obtain. "
Canaan said: "Step by step... We are all earthlings. It is not difficult to integrate. If there is an accident, you can support us across time and space... Besides, we have containment. That is a gap that technology can hardly make up for. ”
