Imperfections

Chapter 146: People smarter than you have all failed

Views:

Many years ago, when the mother of the then principal of the Ulan Academy came forward and forcibly transferred Lord back to the Warto defender through relationships on the grounds that there would be trouble in the Silver Fortress, Lord felt that they were all disgusting, Incomprehensible.

He didn't understand why he couldn't turn around and leave like the Ten Silver Guards, and use his actions to get an explanation for their generals. He didn't understand why he couldn't insist on pursuing the truth, and he didn't understand why he ran away like a coward. Like their comrades, after General Lin left, they still held their ground and honor.

Lord sometimes thinks that they don't think of themselves as human beings. At the age of several decades, he can't even eat, drink, and laugh. a lifetime. However, he could not resist, because he knew that he had left the family, and he, an honorary graduate of Ulan Academy, was nothing. Even the fact that he was fortunate enough to be by General Lin's side was given to him by his family.

There are many people like him in Votto. They all look beautiful, have received the most elite education, are humble and polite, and have a good demeanor. Then he lowered his eyebrows and drank milk, and went to work in an orderly manner, feeling depressed.

The pain of this division haunted Lord for many years, until the Silver Fortress was attacked and Votto fell. Marshal Woolf personally directed the retreat. Lord was transferred to the safest place because he was a related household - to Marshal Woolf. As a guard, I gradually became familiar with this alliance commander. Occasionally, I heard a few words from the old marshal about the past and future of the alliance, and I would be able to set off a tenth-level tsunami in my heart.

More than half a year ago, the Glory of the Pirates surrendered, and the alliance reorganized the Votto garrison. Lorde had been mixed for so many years. Although he still did not achieve much, after all, he followed the center of the alliance to the fortress of Angel City, which is a layer of plating." Jin", his military rank also rose with the tide, he was promoted to colonel, and transferred to Duke, the border guard of the first galaxy, as the first "dowry" of the alliance between the alliance army and the central army.

When he took office, in accordance with human etiquette, Lord, accompanied by his mother, visited Woolf at the Marshal's Mansion and expressed his gratitude to the old marshal for his care and support for so many years.

Woolf was recuperating at home due to a severe cold at the time, and he received them warmly and asked Lord to help him out to breathe. Oji said to Lord: "There are no people in my era now, and I don't know how far I can go with the alliance. The road that our generation has gone through, there will still be people who can continue it in the future. go down?"

He said, after a while, he held Lord's hand tightly, and said to him: "I hope that the Alliance will wake up from the nightmare of the Garden of Eden. Balance, even if their galaxies have to be independent in the future, it doesn't matter, I hope that the retrogressive history can stop at our generation, you - as 'survivors', you can find a new way. If one day, I deviate from it myself This thought, it must not be my intention, child, I need you to do something."

Lord asked curiously, "What can I do for you?"

"Go to the eighth galaxy and find Lin Jingheng."

Lord listened for a while. It had been more than 20 years since he left the Silver Fortress, which was more than double the time he spent in the Silver Fortress. You must know that even in the war-torn years, the lives of officers are not always magnificent. Most of them are actually just drifting with the tide. , and some people, who follow the right troops, always play the role of "the enemy has already collapsed when they arrive at the scene", quietly boil some qualifications, and live a dull and boring "full life".

The front line, conspiracy, Lin Jingheng, the thrilling battle and death are all far away from Lord, so that he heard the legends of the "death and alive" of the officers whom he deeply admired in the past, but he only felt embarrassed and had no sense of substitution. He wanted to ignore it back then. The heart of following that person is gone now. The most important thing in his eyes is how to get along with the new colleagues who originally belonged to the Central Army.

After hearing Marshal Woolf's request that he could not go to the village or the store, Lord thought that something was wrong with his ears, and hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about? Who are you looking for?"

"You remember what I said." Marshal Woolf clenched his fingers tightly, as if to imprint this sentence in Lord's heart, "If there ever comes a day, no matter what you hear, you won't want anyone. Believe me, find a way to contact Lin Jingheng."

"Lian, contact General Lin? But how do I get in touch?" Lord asked in confusion, "What should I tell him when I get there?"

"You don't need to know, there will be opportunities naturally, I don't think that day will be far away." Marshal Woolf said, "When you meet him, you can tell him, 'Do you remember when you were at Ulan College? I'll give it to him. The one who's good'?"

"General," Lord said cautiously, facing the communication platform that did not respond for a long time, "Marshal Woolf chatted with us privately once, saying that in Wulan College, he gave you an 'excellent', you Remember?" Note

This sentence has gone through a long time and space, and when the noise spread to the Galaxy City of the eighth galaxy, it was like a thunder in a dry sky.

Hearing that, Lin Jingheng felt a "squeak" in his heart.

But this slight reaction, going back and forth through the wormhole once, has long been worn away.

Lorde looked at Lin Jingheng's distorted and expressionless face, and suddenly remembered that this was the person he admired so much when he was young and frivolous. Suddenly, he found that he had been so close to the cusp of this era, almost so close. got involved. However, for more than 20 years, he has been pushed out by the torrent of fate for tens of thousands of light years, and that painful young man has gradually turned into an ordinary young man.

Lord said what Woolf asked him to say, and he was greatly relieved. On the one hand, it became a mission, and on the other hand, he was suddenly grateful for the "near".

Very dangerous, almost became a person on the sacrificial hero roster.

There's nothing wrong with being a mediocre colonel by comparison.

Relying on Lin Jingheng's status as the former captain of the personal guard, Lord took up his time to chat a few "nonsense", but if he talked too much, he would be suspicious. Lorde wasn't sure if what he was conveying was right or not. After all, at his level, it would be difficult to contact Marshal Woolf after he took office, and he couldn't help Lin Jingheng understand whether he would believe him or not. After all, it is bleak to say that his colleagues who dreamed together in the Silver Fortress have now almost all died in the declaration of freedom.

But surrounded by ears, Lord had no choice but to wipe the sweat from his palms on his trousers. On behalf of his current commander, Duke, he conveyed his greetings to the Eighth Galaxy. Full of small emotions, translated into spoken language, it probably means:

Duke, I greet the stone statue of the old boss in the eighth galaxy, the legendary son of the old boss and the adopted son of the white-eyed wolf, and the brothers who fought with General Lu in the eighth galaxy. Woolf has dementia. The soldiers were increased near the Heart of the Rose, and he also forcibly explained that he was not targeting the eighth galaxy, and Lao Tzu, as the "added" soldiers, thought he and his pug were stupid. But don't worry, the Eighth Galaxy has General Lu's face, I promise not to use force before you start, welcome to set up a communication platform on the border, everyone will keep in touch in the future, we can share the splendid past of General Lu together, listen to that old man The immortal Lin, who harmed the alliance, wanted world peace.

"Lin, do you think this person is credible?" After a brief communication disconnection, Lu Bixing asked, "What does it mean to give you an 'excellent'?"

Lin Jingheng shook his head thoughtfully: "He belongs to Woolf."

"Is the commander-in-chief afraid that after more than 20 years, people will change?" said Anakin, captain of the four guards. "I feel that his words were blunt and nervous. If he pretended, his acting skills would be too brilliant."

Lin Jingheng shook his head again.

"Commander, what you are worried about is not that people will change, but that Colonel Lord himself will not know who he is being used by." Li Furan observed his expression, "With Woolf's desire to control, it is reasonable to put a few nails to monitor the Silver Fortress. Yes. He understands you, and won't worry too much about you and be too sharp to make you taboo. This kind of person who has a clean family background, is not deep in the world, or even a little idealistic, is the 'prescribed medicine'."

Lu Bixing's eyes suddenly dimmed when he heard the words "inexperienced and even a little idealistic".

However, this time, Lin Jingheng didn't notice, just waved his hand: "Let's take a step by step, at least we still have the natural wormhole area."

The experimental mission of the expedition team should be said to be a near miss, and the return flight was successful. Not only did it become a natural wormhole test, but with the help of the First Galaxy Border Guard Army, a two-way communication platform was built, which can be directly contacted. Galaxy City Command Center.

Duke, as the leader of the Central Army, despite Woolf's repression and not wanting to rebel, is also a thorn who jumped up and down. He blatantly engaged in "private diplomacy" with the Eighth Galaxy under the ambiguity of the Central Alliance's attitude, and was generous. It shared the public network of the first galaxy, although the signal was very unstable, but at least it allowed the eighth galaxy to see the daily headlines of the Votto Daily.

Immediately afterwards, an exclusive interview about Marshal Woolf was published in the Votto Daily. Two pages were devoted to the discussion of "Order 306". In the video, Woolf was eloquent and articulate. In any case, it was temporary. Hold down the uproar of public opinion.

Whether it is the Eighth Galaxy or the Alliance, they have entered a brief period of calm, and it seems that even the Freedom Legion has kept a low profile.

In the calm atmosphere, the water vapor is thick, the dark clouds set sail, and a smell of changing sky is rolling in.

Dr. Harden collects various data on Lu Bixing every other month.

In this regard, Dr. Harden is very cautious. Even as the founder of the Nuwa Project, Lu Bixing's situation is too special for him.

It has been several years since Lu Bixing took out the chip last time. The special biochip has been beautifully fused with the human body. His metabolism, mitochondrial fusion and division have changed the way the entire human body operates. No one can tell. What will happen when it is taken out - or even if it is fine now, will there be any sequelae decades from now.

Dr. Harden retracted the characteristic grip and glanced at the numbers on it: "You have precise control over your physical strength."

"It was neither light nor heavy at the beginning," Lu Bi helped him pack up the equipment, "just get used to it."

"You sacrificed the interactivity of the chip for safety. This is very clever and will not be affected by jammers. Mr. Lu, how much pressure can you withstand at most? Have you tested it?"

"No, because it's a secret experiment, I didn't dare to try it in an extreme situation. If I accidentally die, it will become a big problem." Lu Bixing said frankly, "But if I was just pierced by a laser gun, I could control my body in at least three times. No bleeding within a minute. If there is a medical cabin standing by, this time is enough. In addition, I did not sleep for 23 days at most once. Although I was very tired at the time, I was only tired within the tolerance range, and my essence did not collapse. I can still concentrate and have no obvious sequelae afterward.”

"The energy that is different from ordinary people, is this also the reason why you destroyed the experimental data and did not take out the chip?"

Lu Bixing spread his hands: "I don't have enough strength, so I have to gather energy. There was too much pressure during that time, and I couldn't do anything about it."

"It's better not to do this, President Lu, I have no reference, I can only compare with you. Because of your regular life recently, the indicators of this physical examination are obviously better than the historical data. If this is close to the normal level, it means that You have been in an unhealthy state for a long time before, and no one knows how it will go on." Dr. Harden said, "I will send this medical examination report to his personal terminal later on as per General Lin's request, you have no opinion. Bar?"

"Uh" Lu Bixing froze for a moment, and his voice became a little weaker, "Just tell him about the improvement and improvement, not to mention that it was abnormal before?"

Dr. Harden paused: "Someone told me that half of the people in the eighth galaxy are empty-brained, and these people dream of healing themselves, no matter how big the risk is, they can bear the big risk, President Lu, these days have passed To communicate with you, I think your nine years of research results can be said to have an experimental basis, why not continue? Know that once successful, your eighth galaxy will become a superhuman galaxy, any untrained citizen among the citizens Ordinary people, energy and combat power can be comparable to the regular army of the alliance, and then with your strength, you can sweep the alliance."

"Isn't empty brain disease human?" Lu Bixing smiled at him, "The Garden of Eden is gone, why do you still discriminate against empty brain disease? There is not only one kind of job in the world, and it is not impossible for empty brain disease to fully open, only It's just a slow learning process. Who told you this fallacy?"

Dr. Harden: ""

When Lu Bixing saw his indescribable expression, he immediately understood that this was a lonely old man who had been deceived and threatened by General Lin and left a deep psychological shadow. He couldn't help laughing for a while. Half sympathetically, half apologetically poured a cup of tea for Old Harden, and said, "Do you know how I felt when I first looked at Zhan Lu's database carefully?"

Harden: "Huh?"

"It's very shocking," Lu Bixing said, "I found a lot of technologies in Zhanlu that I thought did not exist. There are a small part of the content that I have thought about and smug about it, and more are beyond the scope of my knowledge. There are also some that I can’t even understand to this day. I thought at the time that there are so many smarter people in this world than me. It’s unimaginable, but these are all projects that died prematurely. Long injunctions and cease and desist notices."

"When I was in 'The White Tower', I participated in more than 60 projects, and more than 90% failed the risk audit, and the rest were painless things," Dr. Harden sighed and lowered his voice. Said, "Those magic beans will grow to the sky overnight, and the cloud-eating giants will pour down (Note 2). Every small attempt can be irreversible."

"It wasn't until I sat in this position that I knew that the Alliance had been hundreds of years before I was born, and even in the old star calendar years before the birth of the Alliance, people in power realized this problem," Lu Bixing said. After the Age of Navigation, human civilization has been going backwards, not because humans have degenerated, but because we have to wear shackles.”

"Even so careful, the Alliance has stepped on the thunder, and even the safest entertainment service industry is in crisis," Harden said. "Who would have thought that 'Eden' would become such a monster?"

"Yes, this is the second time I have been shocked. The first time was when I wanted to short the mecha for brain disease. I thought I had come up with a solution, but it turned out that my theory had already been verified and denied." Lu Bixing said , "You will find that all of your self-proclaimed great ideas have been thought of before, and all the theories that you think have created an era have been falsified before. The world is so messed up today because of those who are smarter than you. All failed."

Dr. Harden, who had been in exile for hundreds of years because Nuwa planned to go into exile, could no longer understand it, and he got goosebumps when he talked about it.

"This is scary, Doctor, when I was a child, I had a thousand ideas about the future development of the world. When I was young, I built a school and talked to the students every day. But when I had the power to realize it, I found that I dared not even one. Say it," Lu Bixing said in a low voice, "for so many years, my guidance to the Eighth Galaxy Engineering Department is all based on 'forced by the situation' - if we can't make this thing, if we can't realize this technology, we will die, then we will It will be done after repeated and rigorous demonstrations. In comparison, biochips that can change the social structure and even the characteristics of species are too dangerous.”

Lu Bixing paused, and while Dr. Harden came out, he calmly followed the topic and said, "In fact, even Miss Lin from the Freedom Legion knows about the danger of chips. She has been in cosmic rays for at least half an hour and hurt like that, didn't she think about using a chip on him?"

Dr. Harden didn't realize that he was being rhetorical, and nodded unsuspectingly: "Indeed, we all think that his brain has been irreversibly damaged, and there is almost no possibility of recovery. Someone proposed to try it with a biochip. , Jing Shu insisted and refused."
