After Zhou Cheng cleaned up the things on the table, he looked at the time and went to the sofa in the living room downstairs to sit upright, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

After a moment, a light flashed outside the window, and then the sound of the aircraft landing was heard. Zhou Cheng smiled slightly, as if the moment he had been waiting for had arrived.

Pushing the door open were several warriors wearing full-coverage battle armor. The visors covered their faces, and it was unclear whether they were humans or humanoids. Although they had no weapons in their hands, their actions as they entered the door showed that

An irresistible momentum.

A soldier was about to step forward when the person next to him reached out to stop him, and then said using a voice synthesizer:

"Mr. Zhou Cheng, please don't be nervous. We are the commander's guard, here to invite you to participate in an important ceremony. We will not touch your sentry pen, nor will we restrict your power to use it. Please follow us

Let’s go!”

An invitation letter and a law enforcement permit were projected on Zhou Cheng's bracelet, but he did not read it. He just stood up and said lightly:

——

"Invitation? Can I not go?"

The soldier looked a little embarrassed, but before he could speak, Zhou Cheng walked out the door. Before boarding the aircraft, he looked up at the night sky again. At this time, the starry sky was no longer as bright and bright as before.

But for the first time, he saw the Crab Nebula with only a faint halo left in the Milky Way in the Eternal City.

The spaceship carried Zhou Cheng towards the direction of the Bridge of Time and Space. From a distance, he saw a brightly lit area in the air at the end of the Bridge of Time and Space, like a dazzling diamond hanging in the air under the light.

.

When he was almost 6, Zhou Cheng discovered that the light was originally on the rooftop of the Humanoid Headquarters Building, which was also the tallest building in the Eternal City except for the Sentinel Tower.

The rooftop is very spacious, and the floor is layered with gorgeous carpets. In the slowly flowing colored light, the patterns and colors of the carpet seem to change with the light, giving people an unpredictable sense of mystery.

Champagne, drinks and food were placed on the long tables on both sides in front. The wine bottles, cups and tableware were of a style that Zhou Cheng had never seen before, but at this moment, these strange tableware appeared in such a scene without any sense of violation.

.

On the other side of the rooftop, there was a huge curved curtain erected against the edge of the building. There was a circle of semi-curved seats in front of it. It looked like a solemn ceremony was about to be held here.

A group of people in costumes were holding wine glasses and chatting happily in the center of the rooftop. Zhou Cheng recognized the human commander and the humanoid commander Li Ke from a distance. But what surprised Zhou Cheng was that he saw them for the first time.

Humanoids also put on gorgeous clothes.

Both the styles and the accessories on these clothes have never been seen in the Eternal City. Paired with the huge human eyes, they give people a sense of elegance and solemnity. Such overall temperament and clothing

The slightly enchanting human commander and the officials formed a kind of contrast between something and nothing.

Zhou Cheng walked towards the center of the rooftop. The soldiers who sent him did not follow him anymore, but lined up at the edge of the rooftop to stand at attention. The commander-in-chief who was chatting and laughing with Li Ke saw Zhou Cheng and said enthusiastically:

Novels, welcome to download

"Oh! Professor Zhou, I'm so happy to see you. I should have informed you earlier, but I was busy with work a few days ago and almost forgot about it. Fortunately, Li Ke reminded me. Otherwise, I would have had to

I bear the guilt of letting you miss such an important historical moment."

After saying that, the commander-in-chief laughed, and Li Ke also nodded and smiled at Zhou Cheng, but Zhou Cheng just glanced at her, then looked at the commander-in-chief and asked:

"Important historical moment? What historical moment!"

The commander-in-chief looked at the time and said while leading Zhou Cheng towards the row of seats:

"You will see it soon, this is definitely the beginning of a new era!"

Everyone also came to the seats in front of the curtain. The commander-in-chief and Li Ke sat in the middle, and Zhou Cheng sat next to the commander-in-chief. Others also sat down in turn, and the remaining people stood in a semicircle on both sides of the seat.

of arc.

The rooftop began to rotate slowly, and when the seats were facing the northwest, the rotation stopped. The lights on the rooftop and the Eternal City began to gradually go out, and finally the whole world was left with only the Milky Way across the sky, the stars all over the sky, and the hook.

The moon is still giving off a faint luster.

A slight sigh came from the figures, and everyone was praising this rare tranquility and serenity. Only Zhou Cheng anxiously held the Sentinel pen in his hand in the shadows.

At this time, a handful of golden bright spots rose on the skyline directly in front. Those small bright spots kept rising from the distant horizon, and soon they were like thin chains closely connected.

Ban La was lifted into the air. "What are these?" Zhou Cheng asked anxiously to the commander beside him.

"These are all rainmen." The commander replied, gazing high-spiritedly at the chain of light that had stretched across half the sky.

Zhou Cheng frowned suddenly. Seeing the commander's eyes widening like two small lanterns, he tried his best to suppress his excited voice and said:

"Rain Man! What are they going to do!"

The direction of the rooftop also began to rotate slowly along with the direction of the flight of those bright spots. The commander still looked very proud, his eyes never leaving the strings of light chains that had converged in the deep sky.

"They are leaving the earth and embarking on a journey of exploration into deep space." The commander replied leisurely.

"What? Why did they leave the earth? Aren't they afraid of being intimidated by their unauthorized actions?" Zhou Cheng's voice rose unconsciously, so that the people around him looked back at him.

The commander finally withdrew his gaze from the sky and looked at Zhou Cheng blankly:

"Don't be so nervous. I don't know why they left the earth. Maybe it's because of their passion for space exploration. This is not what I care about. But before they were ready to leave, they had already made a formal announcement to Commander Li Ke and me.

After careful negotiation, we agreed to their request.

I have also informed the moon's space force that as long as Rain Man does not approach the 150,000-kilometer warning zone near the moon, they will not activate the deterrent device. And the reason why we are gathered here today is to witness this special moment.

"

"There are no habitable planets within at least 800 light years near the solar system. Rainman has not even waited for the atomic industrial revolution and is leaving the solar system. I am worried that there is something wrong behind this!" Zhou Cheng's voice was very low and his tone was very dull.

, like coming from underground.

A trace of displeasure flashed across the commander's face, and there was a calm tone in his words.

"Professor Zhou, I can understand your concerns. Although my starting point is different from yours, it does not mean that I ignore the possible dangers. From the moment they enter the near-Earth space, we will send

The space battleships kept a close watch until they flew out of the Kuiper Belt.

After that, the space telescope will continue to closely track and observe them until they leave the Oort cloud. After they fly out of the solar system, we will continue to track them in the infrared and x-wave bands for more than ten years.

If any suspicious situation occurs during the process, we will immediately take all necessary measures, including deterrent devices. Do you think there will be problems in the entire process of Rain Man leaving the solar system?

And, for you and the theories of survival and civilization of your time, isn’t Rain Man leaving the solar system exactly what we want?”

Zhou Cheng remained silent and stopped talking. He felt like he was having a discussion with a drunkard who was getting drunk and left the table, but what made him drunk was not the wine in the bottle, but the dreamlike and prosperous world in front of him.
