"They thought they failed, so in order to cover up the fact of failure, they made up Lies.
The content of Lies is about the whereabouts of these three thousand nuclear bombs.
But I'm curious about how they covered up the nuclear explosion.
Logically speaking, the noise caused by the simultaneous detonation of three thousand nuclear warheads would never be hidden from the eyes of other countries."
Hearing this, Antie's breathing froze.
Because there is no information about this matter in his memory.
Indeed, just as Doctor said.
Three thousand nuclear bombs detonated simultaneously.
It is absolutely impossible to hide this movement from other countries.
"Yeah... how did they do it?"
No one can answer this question.
Because even Doctor can't answer this question.
Doctor took a deep breath and then continued the topic.
"But when they made this crazy decision, they were thinking in the wrong direction.
They think of time as countless parallel lines.
If the time they are in is in the middle of a certain timeline, then this detonation can attract the attention of the same people on the surrounding timelines.
The moment those three thousand nuclear bombs exploded, it was like a light was lit in the dark night.
A bright and dazzling light.
When humans in the parallel timeline see this lamp, they will be attracted to it.
And that light will become a beacon that guides the way."
As he said that, Doctor's eyes became strange.
"Actually, what they are betting on is not whether there are Future humans on their own timeline.
What they are betting on is that there are humans in other timelines like Future.
And Future is very powerful!
Strong enough to be able to drag myself out of the quagmire on this timeline.
Call them crazy, but in fact they chose to bet on the side with the highest winning rate.
That's why I say they are very rigorous."
Apart from Doctor, no one else here could understand this sentence.
Doctor seemed to be aware of the existence of this problem, so he continued to explain, "Betting like this is equivalent to gambling on a dice table.
The probability of betting on a leopard is very low, but the profit after winning is enough to make people crazy.
The probability of winning the bet is 50-50, the income is considerable, and the win is stable.
So after careful calculation, they chose this most stable gameplay.
It is precisely for this reason that without understanding time, they regard space as a plane and time as the lines that make up the plane.
No matter which line they are on, the moment the nuclear bomb is detonated, it is equivalent to a light shining on the plane of time and space.
This light will briefly illuminate all surrounding timelines."
After hearing this, Antie finally digested half of the information he heard before.
So he frowned and asked, "So their understanding of time is wrong?"
Doctor nodded slightly, then shook his head.
"Essentially, they were wrong, but in practical terms, they were right.
This is also where they are rigorous."
As he spoke, he took a deep breath, and an emotion called admiration flashed in his eyes.
"Without understanding time, they chose the safest way to increase the winning rate of their bets.
Because they also guessed that their understanding of time might be wrong.
In fact, the timeline can be understood as an eternally growing sapling.
The saplings Seed take root and sprout in suitable soil.
Grow out of the soil.
The grown trunk is the main timeline.
The branches on the trunk are the forking points of time.
The emergence of these bifurcation points mainly depends on major events in the world.
Different choices create different parallel time and space.
The branches that branch off from the main trunk are the auxiliary timelines.
As the sapling continues to grow, the branches representing the auxiliary timeline will become thicker due to growth.
The branches continue to branch out and sprout buds, and the buds grow leaves.
And when the leaves wither and fall to the ground, it means that this timeline has come to an end."
I have to say that the metaphor of Doctor is always very vivid.
For such a metaphor, don't talk about Antie.
Even Lu Xiao here can easily understand it.
Then, Antie said with a relaxed look, "So the me just now is the leaf that withered and fell to the ground?"
Hearing this, Doctor shook his head slightly. "No, they are the branches connected to the main trunk."
Antie and Pupil shrink instantly.
Pupil, which was originally the size of a mung bean, is now only as big as a grain of rice.
Seeing that Antie remained silent, Doctor continued, "Under the premise that this sapling grows forever, the time of the auxiliary timeline should not come to an end.
The main trunk grows upward, and they spread out branches and leaves in all directions.
And those leaves that grow are the world derived from making wrong choices when faced with major choices.
It is precisely because of this that time in that world will come to an end.
Fallen leaves fall to the ground.
After decay, it is transformed into nutrients for the main trunk to continue to grow, allowing the main trunk to continue to grow upward, and also allowing the branches to continue to bloom and spread leaves.
But then, a gardener appeared.
Because the wild growth of branches takes away the nutrients from the trunk, the growth of the trunk becomes slow.
Or, the branch buds are too dense, so the growth direction of the main trunk is curved.
So the diligent gardener picked up the scissors and pruned the branches and buds of this ever-growing sapling.
Those branches and buds that grow incorrectly and affect the beauty of the trunk are the first targets for pruning by this gardener.
He piled the pruned branches and leaves on the ground, letting them decay and become nutrients for the main trunk to continue to grow.
But at this time, new problems appeared again.
According to the theorem of conservation of energy, this approach cannot form a perfect cycle.
The trunk will eventually stop growing due to lack of nutrients.
Even if a few trees live forever, they will wither due to lack of nutrients."
Having said this, Doctor raised his eyebrows and his tone gradually became high-spirited.
"So at this time, if the gardener wants to save fertilizer, he can only destroy the dead tree and plant a new one Seed.
The dead tree will become the nourishment of the new Seed.
To put it another way, this phenomenon is... time restarts!"
After he finished speaking, Yang Zhan touched the side of Ding Dan and asked softly in a strange tone, "What about that? Do you understand what he said?"
Ding Dan frowned and shook his head slightly. "I don't understand."
Hearing this, Yang Zhan muttered to himself as if he was relieved.
"Okay, okay, I thought I was the only one who didn't understand..."
