Absolute protagonist

"No need." Just then, a faint male voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears, "I still prefer to study things at home alone, so there is no need to trouble you to make an extra trip."

Everyone in the conference room was startled and stood up one after another. Before they had time to think about the content of the words, they looked in the direction of the voice.

For a moment, all eyes were focused on Du Anan.

Du Anan herself was also at a loss. Before she could react, a member of the Disaster Response Department next to her had reached out and pulled out a mobile phone from her pocket.

The clear and calm male voice came out from the speaker of the mobile phone slowly, and the person on the other end seemed to be watching their every move all the time, and also saw their vigilance and precautions at this time.

"Please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions."

It was Duan Anguo who reacted first. He suppressed his doubts and asked in a deep voice: "...Dr. Bai?"

The man on the other end was silent for a moment, and chuckled: "I guess so. If it's not the same name, there is no mistake. I am the Dr. Bai mentioned by Miss Du, and the person you are looking for."

"You..."

At this moment, even Duan Anguo, who has been in a high position for a long time, and many elites of the Disaster Response Department were caught off guard by this sudden change, and for a while they were a little confused.

As a newly established department, the Disaster Response Department has great power.

As the headquarters of the Disaster Response Department, this is one of the most heavily guarded and confidential places in Country C. Someone actually broke through the defense line silently. I don't know how long they have been listening. If the other party hadn't revealed his identity, they would still be unaware!

The meaning behind this cannot be thought about, otherwise it would be terrifying!

However, since the other party took the initiative to communicate with them, it seems that as he said, there is no malice.

As the head of the entire Disaster Response Department, Duan Anguo cannot easily express his opinion on anything, so naturally other members of the department asked questions for him:

"Since you said you have no malice, why did you secretly monitor the Disaster Response Department? You should know that this is a serious crime that will be treated as a spy!"

There was no panic in the other party's voice, and he was still as calm as before: "Sorry, I was a little impulsive about this matter. However, anyone who finds out that there are actually a few strangers who don't know you searching for your traces on the Internet will be curious."

Hearing this, Du Anan opened her mouth in surprise.

When she had just sorted out her memories and found that she had traveled to more than two thousand years ago, and the first disaster of the natural disaster era, the cold wave disaster, was still in the countdown, the first thought that came to her mind was to hold on to her thighs. She couldn't find the mysterious prophet, but she could try to find Dr. Bai.

At that time, the Internet was still connected. Du An'an almost exhausted her memory, listing the keywords about Dr. Bai in her memory, such as "born in the imperial capital", "artifact Xianyou Mansion", "rich family", and searching for Bai Shu on the Internet, but she did not find a "Dr. Bai" that matched her cognition.

"Dr. Bai, you, you... So you discovered me since then?"

A chuckle came from the speaker of the mobile phone, and he only wrote lightly: "Well, I wrote a small program for information security when I was free before-so I noticed you at the first time."

... Chu Si did not lie about this. His original body was a genius, and he had a lot of free time on weekdays. He also wrote a program when he was bored. Once someone searches for his related information on the Internet, the stronger the search direction, the easier it is to be captured by the small program.

"Well, out of curiosity, I also installed a little gadget in your mobile phone."

After being surprised, Du An'an's heart inevitably rose a lot of admiration. She did not doubt that Chu Si was lying at all. Because in her opinion, as a famous genius scientist in history, no matter what he did beyond common sense, it was not surprising.

There are many things that talented people take for granted, but mediocre people find them strange.

Du Anan was more concerned about something else, so he whispered, "So, you heard what we said before, Dr. Bai?"

"I didn't expect that after installing a little gadget, I would follow you to the Disaster Response Department and hear so many interesting things:). Time travelers, reborn people, such a fresh research topic..."

Duan Anguo caught the key point of this at the first time, and he couldn't wait to speak:

"Wait a minute. This... Dr. Bai, as everyone knows, the cold wave disaster is now covering the world. A large area of ​​circuits and networks have been interrupted due to the low temperature, and there is no mobile phone signal. The headquarters of the Disaster Response Department only has internal power supply and a closed LAN signal."

This middle-aged man who sits in the headquarters, coordinates in the middle, and directs all parties to rescue and protect the people, has a lot of white hair in a short period of time, but at this time he is energetic, his tone is getting more and more excited, and his eyes are bright.

"Logically speaking, even the most powerful hacker on the entire Blue Planet cannot have the ability to invade the internal network..."

As far as he knows, the only person who can ignore the so-called network and even the power of electronic devices and display the official website without any obstacles even on an abandoned computer is the prophet.

"... Could it be that you have contact with the prophet and received his help?"

In Du Anan's description, Dr. Bai will be a great contributor to mankind in the future. It is not impossible for a prophet who can predict the future to choose to help him in advance.

"No, the prophet's method has gone beyond the scope of today's scientific understanding. It is more like a special system that humans have never been exposed to today." Chu Si boasted without any guilt, "I guess the virtual website is just a layer "Skin, if He is willing, it shouldn't be a problem to display the scenes from "Record of Calamity" on rocks that can be seen everywhere."

"As for how I did it, I just said it." His ending voice was relaxed and joyful, with a bit of the unique fun of young people. It no longer sounded as inscrutable as before, "I've already said it." I installed a gadget in Du Anan’s phone~"

"As for the signal issue, when did I say that I capture and transmit signals based on radio electromagnetic waves?"

"!!!"

Duan Anguo couldn't sit still, and even if he tried his best to restrain himself, he could not hide his shock. Others were not much better and almost kicked over their stools.

Today's wireless networks are electromagnetic wave signals. This mysterious Dr. Bai actually claimed that he was not using electromagnetic waves. Is this really a joke?

Several experts' voices even trembled with excitement: "You mean, you used an unprecedented signal transmission method?"

"Yes. I don't know if you have noticed that since the strange cosmic ray passed through the Blue Star a month ago, this star field has been polluted. Everything we have, whether it is tangible materials or intangible Energy, including the originally indestructible laws of physics, has actually begun to slowly distort...it's just not obvious yet."

"After my research and testing, now Blue Star has been eroded by that weird energy from the inside to the outside, from the ore to the water source to the air. Even the human body has been slightly infected. I call it source energy. .

"——This time is my little attempt at how to use source energy."

"Basically speaking, I used the ubiquitous source energy particles in the air to vibrate at certain specific frequencies, targeting Duan's mobile phone, and turned my words into special signals and input them into it. It turns out that the effect is pretty good. .

At this moment, the eyes of the experts looked at the mobile phone, as if they were looking at a priceless treasure, revealing unparalleled passion.

But the next moment, Chu Si's voice poured cold water on them again: "But this is just a superficial attempt, and my method is relatively simple and crude. After this call is over, the materials of this phone may not be able to carry the energy. The over-frequency vibration of the particles will completely damage it."

Although Duan Anguo didn't understand much, he looked at the experts who heard the sound of nature and did not interrupt him. Instead, he asked: "... is the source energy really so useful?"

Chu Si replied: "I have just started researching it."

"In the development of human society, we have developed many energy sources, such as wind energy, water energy, and electric energy... However, after being radiated by cosmic rays, these energy sources have gradually been polluted, and even the laws of physics have tended to be distorted. When they are completely destroyed, On the day when radiation erodes, most of the technological system built on this foundation will be destroyed... This is a crisis, but also a new opportunity."

The calm male voice echoed in the conference room, making everyone excited. However, the person who said such arrogant words as if nothing happened had a confident and calm tone from beginning to end, making people involuntarily believe his every word.

"Because we have a new special energy source, and it comes from the stars in the universe. There is no shortage of it for everyone, and it is constantly available - that is source energy."

"...If such a special energy can be well studied and utilized, it might even be able to bring humanity's technology tree to a new era."

The conference room after that almost became the home court of experts. Various terms that everyone did not understand came out of their mouths in a steady stream, and almost every question they had was answered by Chu Si fluently. This also makes these people more and more convinced.

Just before the tiny mobile phone buzzed under load and was about to collapse completely, Duan Anguo made a decision: "Dr. Bai, here, I will hire you as the chief scientist in the name of the Disaster Response Department."

"There is no fixed place to work, and no fixed tasks. The only thing you need to do is to guide the scientific research path of the entire country C from a macro perspective. We are going to quickly move in the direction of studying source energy - completely eliminate it after natural disasters Before us.

——Even many years later, Duan Anguo, whose life has undergone earth-shaking changes, still cannot forget this day every time he recalls the events of that year.

This was the most special day in his life and the most special day in the old human era.

Until he said those words and came back to his senses, Duan Anguo was a little unbelievable - they had never met each other before, and with just a few conversations over the air, he actually chose to entrust all his trust to a strange young man?

This was an extremely impulsive decision, but for some reason he didn't regret it. It wasn't because he completely believed in the future that Du Anan said, but because he chose to believe in the person on the other side of the phone.

...At this critical moment, the next natural disaster will come at any time. We cannot place all our hopes on the mysterious prophet. Since ancient times, Chinese people have only believed that man can conquer heaven, and they will never regard immortals and gods as their eternal reliance.

For the future of mankind, it’s time to take a gamble!

Duan Anguo's words were powerful. Chu Si, who had always seemed calm and composed, was also surprised for a moment, and then smiled and replied: "Okay, I agree."

His voice was no longer scattered, and it was rare to show sharpness.

Before the next natural disaster comes, it is Chu Si's plan to connect with the Disaster Response Department in a natural way, so as to help all mankind get on the right track as soon as possible and avoid meaningless deaths and injuries.

He deliberately created time travelers and reborn people, partly because he used these people to build momentum and alleviate the doubts of the Disaster Response Department about his being too young and unqualified, so that he could quickly climb to a high position and influence the decision-making of the entire C country and even all mankind.

However, the only thing he didn't expect was that the head of the Disaster Response Department had such great courage and entrusted him with the country from the beginning.

So, Chu Si would naturally not let him down.

After accepting the title of chief, the first thing Chu Si had to do was to study the artifact "Xianyou Mansion", figure out its principles, and create more space equipment.

He could easily create space equipment that was much better than the "Xianyou Mansion", but "Bai Shu" couldn't! Therefore, after the people from the Disaster Response Department delivered the "Xianyou Mansion" to his door, he entered his private laboratory and studied it carefully behind closed doors.

Just two months later, Chu Si, who was highly praised by the future traveler Du An'an and developed more fans in the Disaster Response Department every day, and almost praised him as the pinnacle of human wisdom, did not live up to Du An'an's praise and actually imitated the space equipment.

Moreover, he also passed on the principles and manufacturing methods, allowing the Disaster Response Department to mass-produce them.

It was like a dream to be able to master a completely unfamiliar technology in two months. I didn't even dare to write such a proud plot, for fear that some logic party would criticize it. But it happened in reality.

Everyone in the Disaster Response Department was convinced by Dr. Bai, and they completely believed what Du An'an said.

——This Dr. Bai’s brain is incomparable to that of ordinary people. He is a genius. Perhaps God made him born in this era to help mankind out of difficulties.

In the words of those immortal heroes, this is called "coming into being at the right time"!

After making the space equipment, under Chu Si's reminder, while some of the materials were not frozen, before the cold wave became even bigger, Country C quickly mobilized manpower to transfer all the materials to the space equipment. Including some low-temperature resistant plant seeds, existing reserve food, and some strategic materials... and so on.

Originally, they also wanted to share with other countries, but now the global Internet is disconnected, the wind and snow block the road, and the world seems to be divided into isolated islands, and they can't do anything.

During this period, the cold wave disaster became more and more severe, and the entire surface of the blue planet was covered with thick ice and snow. Looking around, there was only a vast expanse of snow.

Because of Zhu Rong's fire worship picture, as long as humans consume a certain amount of energy to visualize, their bodies can remain warm for a long time, but other creatures and dead things cannot survive in such a low temperature environment.

As time went by, large numbers of animals and plants were directly frozen to death, and the surviving animals and plants also mutated under the transformation of source energy and adapted to the extreme cold environment.

However, most of the various light and heavy industrial materials under the current human technological system, from buildings to daily necessities to energy transmission pipelines, could not withstand this extreme cold and were damaged in large quantities. The modern industrial system basically collapsed completely.

Although many new materials affected by source energy radiation were born, in such a short time, scientists had no time to analyze their characteristics clearly, let alone use them?

In a short period of time, human civilization seemed to have regressed a thousand years and returned to the primitive age. Moreover, they lived in the form of settlements scattered on the snowfield. Their daily food, clothing, housing and transportation lost the convenient high-tech of the past, and only the most primitive means were feasible.

Building houses with ice and snow, trying to catch mutant animals and plants for food, and walking on two legs... That's fine. In this extremely cold environment, food cannot grow. Once the previous reserve food is eaten up, where should humans go? Such worries weigh on everyone's mind.

This is by no means groundless worry. As a major grain-producing country, C has a strong sense of crisis, so its grain reserves are sufficient now. However, in some small and already poor countries, the rich control a large amount of resources, and the civilians are already poor, and now people are beginning to starve to death.

At this time, the "Record of Disasters", which had been silent for more than two months, appeared again.

This time, it was no longer just an electronic device. As long as you pick up a piece of ice on the roadside or find an ice surface at random, as long as there is human eyes watching, the content will appear on the ice on time-

A new page of the "Record of Disasters" has appeared.

For the "Record of Disasters" and the prophet behind it, humans have complicated feelings.

On the one hand, they are very grateful for the prophet's reminder, which allowed them to prevent disasters in advance, and Zhurong's fire worship diagram saved countless lives; on the other hand, they are very reluctant to face the updated "Record of Disasters".

Just like the legendary book of life and death of the King of Hell, even if they know that it cannot be changed by human power, humans still cannot face their own names written on it calmly.

Under the complicated gazes of countless people, a new page of content appeared.

It was still a simple drawing like a child's graffiti. On the snow-white background, the top was extremely empty, with only a simple sun painted on it; the bottom was extremely crowded, with densely packed stick figures filling the lower half of the page, lying on the ground in large characters, with confused expressions.

There were a few traces on the background in the distance, and everyone had to identify them for a long time before they recognized that they should be waves - rolling towards these stick figures.

Indistinctly, many people seemed to have an extremely cruel picture in front of them.

A fiery red sun hung high in the sky, emitting endless light and heat, and countless people fell on the ground, dying from exposure. The rolling icebergs and snowfields melted under the scorching sun, and the surging waves swept the earth, turning into an endless ocean and torrent, with corpses floating for thousands of miles.

The tragic picture only flashed in their minds for a moment, but it made everyone shudder.

Sure enough, the "Record of Disasters" in front of him suddenly turned a page, and the next page was full of extremely simple wavy lines. With this level of painting skills, if he didn't remember to add subtitles, I'm afraid no one would be able to recognize what the painting was.

The two pictures that appeared this time had subtitles "2 Ten Days of Exposure", with a countdown of five days; "3 Flood Disaster", with a countdown of thirty days.
