This Game Is Too Realistic

The air was as quiet as death, and the people who were whispering to each other like monkeys were completely silent.

Wu Xinghuan froze on the spot as if his brain had shut down for a moment. Xiao Yong, who was holding his arms, frowned slightly, while Luo Yi fell into deep thought.

As for the koala, he was scratching his head as before, but his blank eyes looked more and more like a real koala.

your grave...

After a long time, he broke the silence and said.

"That means...we are already dead?"

"Yes." Ye Shi replied with his eyes closed.

"Then how did we die?" Koala asked still unwilling to give up, "There must be a reason, right?"

"How do I know how you died?" Ye Shi looked at him inexplicably and said matter-of-factly, "I haven't even entered the grave yet."

"Hiss... that's right," Koala seemed to be convinced, scratching the back of his head and muttering to himself, "You haven't gone in yet."

No longer able to complain about the recruitment standards of the People's Alliance Air and Space Force, Ye Shi sighed deeply and rolled his eyes to the ceiling.

His mind is now in a mess, like a ball of yarn, and he can't find a clue.

The main reason is that this game is too realistic. It doesn't even have a menu interface. Without the VM and logout functions, he really can't tell whether he is in the game or has really traveled through time.

He certainly hoped it was the former.

After all, even if they have to travel through time, no one wants to end up in a tomb.

Not to mention that he is very satisfied with his current life and does not want to go to an unfamiliar environment again.

But if it was in the game, he couldn't understand why he couldn't log off, and he was even more worried about his body in reality.

Several hours, even more than ten hours had passed since he first passed out.

Jiujiu has not broken into the door to wake him up yet. It can only be said that there may have been some accident that caused him to be unable to wake up in reality.

Thinking about these things, Ye Shi felt his head hurt again.

The only good news now is that just before he woke up, he heard the voice calling his name again.

And that cute "sneeze".

There is no doubt that that is Jiang Xuezhou's voice.

It was really confusing. The person he wanted to save became the only comfort in his heart.

At least she's still around here...

"I think he is probably crazy." Xiao Yong, who was standing at the door, lowered his arms, shook his head and walked away.

Luo Yi did not leave, still looking at him thoughtfully, as if he was recalling something.

Lin Youyou, who was standing next to the treatment bed, gently placed her hand on Ye Shi's forehead, with a touch of worry written on her face.

"Your heart rate is unstable and your metabolic level is also very low. It's best to lie down and rest..."

"I don't need to rest," Ye Shi underestimated, not used to this kind of meticulous care, and hid aside, "...I don't need you to worry, you should worry about yourselves."

I don’t know if these people are a little too nervous, but they can be so calm when they learn about their own death.

Of course, it doesn't rule out that they just treat him as amusement, just like players occasionally regard an NPC's outrageous encounter as a source of entertainment.

At first, he was worried that these people would not be able to accept the cruel fact that he was dead, but it seemed that he was overthinking it.

Looking at the awkward young man, Lin Youyou just smiled softly and took his hand back.

"We will take care of ourselves, and of course we will take care of you, who is the patient after all."

"I'm not sick."

Ye Shi replied weakly.

He no longer wanted to repeat this sentence.

Especially since this guy seemed to treat him as an immature child, which made him feel awkward.

At this time, Dr. Wu, who was squatting beside the treatment bed, suddenly raised his head.

"I'm probably sick..."

It seemed that he finally came back to his senses. He muttered something in his mouth and stood up from the side of the treatment bed.

Lin Youyou looked at this talkative guy and raised his eyebrows, and said with a strange expression.

"How about you lie here for a while?"

"No..."

Putting aside these words and the confused Ye Shi, Dr. Wu pushed through the crowd and left in a hurry.

Lin Youyou sighed, raised her index finger and pressed her eyebrows, and said to the people surrounding the door of the medical room.

"My patients need to rest. If you are not here to see me, please leave."

It can be seen that the quality of residents in the Prosperous Era is generally relatively high.

Although the people who were eating melons were obviously not full yet, and they had just eaten at a wonderful place and were curious about the next development, most of them listened to the doctor's words and did not continue to crowd at the door of the infirmary, and quickly dispersed Nothing was left, except Luo Yi standing at the door.

Lin Youyou stared at him.

"What about you? What's wrong with you?"

Luo Yi pointed to his arm that had just undergone surgery, looked at the doctor on duty in front of him and said.

"I'm here to see a doctor. I want to chat with the patient... Don't worry, I won't disturb his rest."

Lin Youyou didn't speak, but looked at the patient lying on the treatment bed inquiringly.

However, the latter did not look at her. He just stared at the door and stubbornly repeated what he had just said.

"I'll say it again, I'm not sick."

"This is not something you and I have the final say on. We'll have to wait until the doctor says it."

Luo Yi shrugged, assuming that this sentence meant that he agreed to chat with him, and walked into the infirmary.

Pulling out a chair from the side, he walked to the side of the treatment bed and sat down, staring at the boy lying on the bed and said.

"You seem to know me...or let me put it another way, do you know me in the future?"

"Yes." Ye Shi nodded and stared at Luo Yi intently. Although his eyes were still full of vigilance, he did not take action directly like before.

In fact, if you think about it calmly, no matter what situation you are facing at the moment, there is no doubt about one thing.

This is definitely not the "Orion" cruiser that he hit in 215 of the Wasteland Era.

Even if he kills him, it will be useless. He might not be able to go back because he has touched some messy time and space paradox.

This possibility is not equal to 0.

It’s the same as the conjecture that I have “traveled through”.

The most important thing now is to calm down.

And collect as much information as possible that will help you understand the current situation.

At this moment, Luo Yi didn't know what the child in front of him, who was said to be from the future, was thinking. He just stared into his eyes and suddenly spoke.

"You're pretty good at it."

Ye Shi smiled faintly.

"Excellent."

Luo Yi said with a smile.

"No prizes at all. When I was your age, I was still thinking about which school to apply for. Not to mention the ability to kill people, I have never even touched or seen a gun."

He didn't object to chatting with this guy, Ye Shi said casually.

"And you signed up for military school?"

Luo Yi shook his head.

"No, I chose the environmental renovation project in the end. As for joining the army, that happened later."

Ye Shi: "...What is the environmental transformation project?"

"It's a piece of shit."

Luo Yi grinned and continued.

"At that time, our relationship with the colony was not so tense, and we were still thinking about how to transform Gaia into the earth, and also use the technology studied by the colony to transform several other planets in the solar system into earth-like planets... Facts have proved , this major is a sinkhole.”

Ye Shi nodded suddenly.

understood.

Simply put, they are creatures of the 22nd century.

Luo Yi looked at him and asked.

"And you?"

Ye Shi said frankly.

"Twenty-fourth century...approximately? According to our algorithm, it is 215 years of the Wasteland Era."

Luo Yi said with a smile.

“I didn’t expect the end of the world to last for so many years.”

Ye Shi thought for a while and said.

"More than two hundred years, but it's almost over."

Luo Yi asked curiously.

"Ended by that... alliance?"

Ye Shi said.

"That's right. In fact, it's not just the Alliance. There are many, many people who have also contributed a lot... But having said that, the Alliance is originally an alliance of all survivors. There seems to be no point in worrying about who ended the wasteland."

Luo nodded and suddenly said with emotion.

"Actually, when I first heard that you have been sinking in the wasteland for more than 200 years, my heart was heavy, because my family is still on earth, and they have no hope of waiting until the peaceful era in this life. But I think that these 200 years have passed. Now, I’m a little relieved that the future will be filled with young and promising young men like you... maybe the future won’t be as bad as I imagined.”

After a pause, he said sincerely.

"It's good, really...it's good."

His words came from the bottom of his heart and were not meant to be polite at all.

Their civilization was not destroyed, and became younger and more united under the experience of the doomsday.

This is actually the meaning.

If before embarking on the journey home, he still had some doubts about the outcome of the three-year war and was worried that what he saw would be a devastated ruins, then at this moment he no longer had any worries or worries about the future.

Although the process is full of twists and turns, in the end the future is bright for all of them.

Ye Shi smiled.

"Really? I think it's pretty good too... It was actually pretty good."

Luo Yi raised his eyebrows and asked half-jokingly.

"You met us in the end?"

"To be precise, I met you," Ye Shi looked into his eyes and said bluntly, "You killed a team from the academy by yourself, albeit with the help of your teammates."

Luo Yi smiled sheepishly.

"I didn't expect that I still have this ability... So what happened next? You chased me, who lived for more than 200 years, all the way to space?"

"This sounds outrageous enough..."

Lin Youyou pressed her eyebrows with an unbelievable expression on her face.

She was still more inclined to believe her common sense. This guy's brain was frozen because he did not follow strict cryo-sleep procedures and entered the hibernation chamber.

Time travel?

This kind of thing is too outrageous and over the top.

However, Ye Shi, who was lying on the treatment bed, nodded and said simply.

"That's right... Actually, this matter was not our business, but you drove the academy's research ship directly through the space junk into synchronous orbit, and then returned to the destroyed missile cruiser. We received Intelligence, there are 100,000 neutron torpedoes stored on this cruiser, or not much different if not this number... You know? We have just fought the last war and are preparing to celebrate the new era of our civilization, and the result is Something like this happened.”

Luo Yi looked at him blankly, his expression gradually becoming serious.

"Have I ever said what I want to do?"

Ye Shi curled his lips.

"Do you still need to say it? You joined an organization called Celestial Beings, which is a group of lunatics and KB elements hiding on the Lagrange Point space station. Like the Enlightenment Society, they only want to bring down the people on the surface of the earth all day long. Everything blows up and reopens.”

"As for you, you didn't talk nonsense to us at all, and we can guess with our toes what you are going to do. It is nothing more than continuing to carry out the ground bombing mission that was not completed more than 200 years ago, and attacking the slime mold mother nests on the ground. And the wastelanders will do a thorough cleansing, and then rebuild the home in your imagination."

Luo Yi's expression completely changed.

"Ground bombing? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Lin Youyou glanced at him with a strange expression, and then looked at Ye Shi.

"I can testify that the fleet's work schedule is open to the public, and it is impossible to hide this kind of thing from us."

"Maybe you just don't know?" Ye Shi snorted, "Even our managers won't tell us everything."

Luo Yi put his hand on his chest, looked at him seriously and said.

"I can swear to you with my personality that even if the situation you mentioned is true, we are performing a mission without our knowledge, and have even committed an unforgivable crime without our knowledge... I will never continue to be a criminal’s accomplice after knowing it.”

Ye Shi chuckled.

"Who knows what you will think 200 years from now."

Luo Yi was silent for a while and whispered.

"...What you said makes sense. People will change, but I don't believe that I will become like that."

"I'm just telling you what I saw, believe it or not," Ye Shi said casually while looking at the ceiling, "Of course, I actually believe what you said. After chatting with you for so long, I feel that you don't There may be some misunderstanding among people who can do that kind of thing."

"Thank you for believing in me," Luo nodded, "but to be honest, I understand your anger. From the same standpoint, if I traveled to the past and saw the criminals who started wars in the future right in front of me, I might also He would hesitate to strangle him first...even if he did nothing at the time."

Ye Shi glanced at him with interest.

"By the way, aren't you scared?"

Luo Yi asked.

"afraid of what."

Ye Shi looked at him and reminded.

"What I just said is very clear, you are already dead. The clearer the line between you and the 'Luo Yi' I mentioned, the lower the probability that you are still alive. Either that guy is your clone or a bionic person .”

"Two centuries have passed, so it's normal to die." Luo Yi shrugged and continued, "Besides, you just saw the wreckage of the Orion, which doesn't mean anything. Maybe that happened many years later? We haven’t been serving on this ship all the time, let alone we still haven’t figured out what’s going on here.”

Ye Shi looked at him in surprise.

"You are quite optimistic."

Lin Youyou put her hand on his shoulder and said in a joking tone.

"After all, we're not dead yet, so we can't scare ourselves just because of a young man's words."

"My opinion is the same as Dr. Lin's."

Luo nodded, looked at the young man lying on the medical bed and continued.

"My last question, why did you lie down in the hibernation chamber? Or...what happened to you before you fell into coma?"

Regardless of whether Dr. Wu's speculation was correct or not, his intuition told him that it was related to whether they could get out of the current predicament.

There was a moment of confusion in Ye Shi's eyes.

"I...to be honest, I don't know very well."

Luo Yi was stunned, looked at Lin Youyou, then looked at him and asked.

"Not sure what you mean?"

"I'm just not sure. I must have fainted at that time."

Ye Shi patted his head and said with a depressed expression.

"I don't remember the part about how I lay down in the hibernation cabin. We were hit by a neutron torpedo and the energy of the shield was just exhausted. I don't even know if I managed to hold on. Then we hit the wreckage of the Orion a little lower on the belly."

"By the way, there was another person in the cockpit at that time. She was a girl about the same age as me. Her name was Jiang Xuezhou... Did you see her in that scientific research ship?"

Although he knew that this possibility was slim, Ye Shi still cast hopeful glances at the two of them.

However, the reaction of the two people made his mood sink to the bottom in an instant.

"If we are talking about the same spaceship, then you are the only one in the spacecraft," Luo Yi looked at him seriously and said in a deep voice, "There is only one sleeping cabin inside, and the person lying in it is you."

"But it's really strange. If you were unconscious at the time, how did you end up in the hibernation cabin?"

Lin Youyou pinched her chin with the knuckles of her index finger and thumb, thinking carefully.

"Either your brain suffered memory fragments during the impact, and you can't remember how you climbed in. Or, as you said, there is actually another person in the spacecraft, but we can't see it."

The infirmary fell silent.

Ye Shi suddenly felt that the air around him was chilly, as if it was haunted.

There seems to be no metaphysical setting in this game?

But he really couldn't explain what happened in front of him with common sense, let alone why he couldn't get off the line.

"Anyway, now we have two important clues. You hit the neutron torpedo first, and then our ship... our future ship."

After writing down these two clues, Luo Yi stood up from the chair.

Looking at Luo Yi who was getting up to leave, Lin Youyou raised his eyebrows.

"You don't want to see a doctor anymore?"

"I've finished reading it."

He has two things to do now.

One is to go to the explosion site and take another look, and the other is to take a look inside the torpedo room.

In addition, these two clues must be given to the guy named Wu.

Although that guy has never been reliable, he is the only professional physicist on this ship.

If even that guy couldn't do it, he couldn't think of anyone else who could.

You can't count on yourself as a top soldier with a background in "Environmental Renovation Engineering", right?

Lying on the treatment bed, Ye Shi closed his eyes tightly and his face turned slightly pale.

The voice came again.

And it’s still the same four sentences——

"Ye Shi..."

"It's so cold here..."

"Ah sneeze!"

"I……"

…

Sheriff's Office on the lower deck.

Several senior officers from the Ministry stood in front of the surveillance camera, staring intently at the situation in the infirmary.

Among them are the captain Zhao Tianhe, the second-in-command Wu Mengke, the navigator and so on.

Respecting the doctor's opinion, they did not irritate the patient, but adopted a more tactful approach - arranging Luo Yi from three subordinate space combat teams to ask them what they urgently wanted to know.

The two chatted for a long time, from the future to the present.

And what they said was unintentional, but made the listener break out in a cold sweat.

The Orion did not have plans to carry out orbital bombing, but the ship's command did receive a request for support from the Lagrange Point space station.

Intelligence shows that most areas of the earth's surface are already covered by mutant slime mold mother nests. If more thorough purification operations are not carried out, the slime mold's activity range will spread to the vicinity of the Antarctic and Arctic Circles within ten years at the latest.

Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to rebuild civilization. Even human civilization cannot wait for the opportunity to rebuild and is wiped out by the children of Gaia before that.

Now that the space elevator has been destroyed, the Zhiyuan colony ship has given up its plan to colonize outer galaxies regardless of the overall situation, and human civilization is approaching the edge of destruction.

The meaning of the Lagrange Point Space Station is obvious. Anyway, the shelter plan has been launched, and the nuclear bombs that need to be used have long been used. Most of the survivors on the surface will not survive. It is better to be happy and simply step on the accelerator. .

From the perspective of civilization, this is to preserve the fire for the survival of civilization as much as possible.

But the paradox is that this behavior itself has shaken the foundations of civilization.

It is precisely because of this that the opinions within the People's Federation and the top brass of the Air and Space Force are not unified on whether to achieve this step, and there are even serious differences.

In fact, this kind of difference did not just appear today, it even existed a long time ago.

Including but not limited to the core differences of the entire war.

Some believe that the enemies of this war are the rebels, while others believe that Gaia is the real enemy.

Disagreement is inevitable.

As long as two people stand together, they will definitely separate themselves, let alone a group of people.

Although the final war was started by the radical faction, it was only the most radical faction.

With the separation of the colonies, internal contradictions turned into external contradictions. The conservatives who had an absolute advantage at the top of the People's Federation would naturally have new positions divided according to the existing agenda. For example, those with positions on the right side of the spectrum would become the new conservatives. , those on the left became the new radicals.

From the latter's standpoint, the war is over, the rebels have been eliminated, and what should be considered now is the aftermath and the establishment of a new order.

This order can include mutant slime mold. After all, it is really unrealistic to completely eliminate this kind of thing.

However, from the standpoint of the former, the most urgent thing is to expel all slime molds from the surface at all costs. No matter how many people are sacrificed for this, it is worth it.

Zhao Tianhe is actually not interested in political matters.

He has a very clear positioning of himself. He is a professional soldier, and his allegiance should be to the law...even if the mainstream of the entire Aerospace Forces tends to side with the former.

However, even if he didn't want to choose a side, when the torrent of history swept over him, he and his men were still forced to get involved and had to make a choice.

After all, when he received the order from the Lagrange Point Command Center, there were only two starships with interstellar navigation capabilities left in the entire Aerospace Force and even the People's Federation.

One Orion and one Gemini.

He was the only one with the most remaining ammunition. In comparison, the Gemini's neutron torpedoes should have been used up in the previous orbital bombardment of the planet Gaia.

In other words, they are the only ones capable of executing the doomsday plan.

There is no one else...

And there is nothing to say about his choice.

He would rather aim the gun at himself or his friendly forces than at the civilians he has protected with his life.

If he really did this, the three years of fighting would be called a wasted battle.

Wu Mengke, who was standing in front of the monitoring terminal screen, looked sadly at the captain Zhao Tianhe who was standing aside.

"This kid knows that information about the Lagrange Point space station. I don't think it's a coincidence. He may actually be from the future."

Zhao Tianhe stared at the screen solemnly and nodded slowly.

"Um."

Wu Mengke looked away with a complicated expression, and unconsciously clenched the armrests of the chair with his hands.

"Then let's..."

Knowing what she wanted to say, Zhao Tianhe shook his head and just stared straight at the screen.

"Hard to say."

"No matter what we say, there is no doubt that you and I are still alive, and our opponents have absolutely no chance of coming back."

"I'm actually more inclined to think that he doesn't come from our future."

"But the future on 'another timeline'."
