Two days later.
Hill and his two companions finally accepted reality.
"In other words, the Parallel Spacetime Mutual Aid Society does exist. We were very fortunate to contact them, and they began rescuing us, even publicizing our story in this universe. So—"
We're big stars in this timeline now?!
"Tsk tsk tsk!"
Mike, who injured his pelvis, can only lie in bed and has to use a lot of hand gestures when he speaks.
Robert peeled an apple for him while nodding in approval.
Hill and Padalka sat in wheelchairs beside the bed.
" President Zhang should come to see you today. He's a very busy man; he's constantly traveling between two different time periods these days."
When it comes to time travel...
Mike looked regretful as he ate his apple and turned to Robert by the bedside. "Dear Robert, could you please ask the Chairman to let me experience the feeling of time travel again later?"
Robert thought for a moment and said, "Actually, when you travel through time, you don't feel anything. It's just a whoosh, and then you're there. It's faster than taking an elevator..."
Mike feigned pitifulness and said, "Then I'm just a country bumpkin who's never even ridden an elevator!"
Robert covered his face, somewhat at a loss for what to do with this clown.
"No rush. Once your injuries heal, there will be plenty of opportunities. You can hitch a ride many times."
Zhang Tianyuan walked in from outside.
Mike exclaimed "Wow!" and looked behind Zhang Tianyuan: "This is quite a scene!"
A large group of people followed behind Zhang Tianyuan.
They were all diplomatic personnel sent from China and other countries in the "2012" timeline to offer their condolences.
Hill, sitting in her wheelchair, smiled. "This reminds me of when we were preparing to board the space station; many people came to visit us then."
Mike gave a helpless smile.
"Looks like we're going to take a lot of photos today."
Padalka simply looked indifferent.
Despite having broken both legs, he pushed his wheelchair to Zhang Tianyuan's side and said gratefully, "Thank you, my brother. Whenever you have time after we get back, I can take you bear hunting in Siberia."
"This is not a good idea." Zhang Tianyuan thought of the current situation in Siberia.
Bears are protected animals there.
Russians really do eat bears when they're hungry!
Zhang Tianyuan sat down
While chatting with the three astronauts, the other visitors stood by or waited outside.
As they chatted, Mike brought up the topic of experiencing time travel again.
"That will have to wait until your pelvic injury heals, Mike."
Zhang Tianyuan could only shake his head and refuse.
Time travel while carrying a hospital bed...
The scene was too beautiful for him to imagine.
"In addition, our Mutual Aid Society very busy lately."
"As you probably know, the world is about to end, and many, many people need to evacuate. This work will begin in the next month or two."
Hearing this, Mike could only express his regret and understanding.
Elder Zhou and his group could wait until 2011 to relocate, but other countries in the 2012 timeline couldn't wait.
Six Spacetime Tunnel were allocated to 5.7 billion people, and efforts were also made to transport as much material as possible.
The timetable abroad is much tighter than in China.
Therefore, based on the results of Thomas's discussions, it would be best to relocate all countries with a population of less than ten million this year.
Using modified cargo ships, a maximum of 100,000 passengers can be carried at a time, enough to transport several small countries in one trip.
A ship can typically make a round trip in ten days, with the most time spent on disinfection and passenger pick-up and drop-off.
When the time comes, all we need to do is assemble a fleet of ships, and we can easily transport everyone away.
After talking with Hill and the others for an hour, Zhang Tianyuan got up to leave and attend an online meeting of Mutual Aid Society from various countries.
This conference is discussing the construction of settlements for various countries in No. 2 Spacetime.
Before the influx of people, each settlement must be completely eradicated of the Darkseekers and have its water, electricity, and roads restored...
Zhang Tianyuan left the world search function running and then focused on the meeting, occasionally offering his opinion.
Finally, the meeting reached a conclusion to adopt a subcontracting responsibility system, with each country responsible for clearing a section of settlement, and even within their own borders, a section was allocated.
However, Elder Zhou and the others didn't care about this.
After the meeting, Zhang Tianyuan opened the system panel, intending to turn off the search function.
He was stunned after just one glance.
because...
The search has been automatically paused!
[World channel search has ended; current channel count: 3]
It went from 2 to 3!
Zhang Tianyuan's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately clicked to view the details.
New World-
The Wandering Earth
hiss!
Zhang Tian
Yuan suddenly felt a little numb.
This is a time and space facing an unprecedented catastrophe.
With a sun on the verge of destruction, humanity is forced to build Planetary Engine to propel the planet and attempt to escape the Solar System with Earth in search of a new home.
He was inclined to go in and take a look first.
However, just as he was about to open the Spacetime Tunnel, Zhang Tianyuan suddenly remembered something—although the movie didn't show it, the film's timeline had actually progressed nearly a hundred years before the main story began...
The story begins with the discovery of a possible solar helium flash in 1977, followed by the conjunction of Earth and Jupiter in 2075.
In other words, he could appear randomly at any point in time, either before or after this century.
Therefore, choosing a tunnel for positioning in this spacetime is a difficult problem.
If he were in the Accelerated Era, he would select a city as his location, only to find that the opposite city was already frozen solid, possibly without even oxygen, and the temperature was tens or even hundreds of degrees below zero.
Zhang Tianyuan wasn't sure if his current clothes would last until he could return from another Spacetime Tunnel.
As for locating it in the underground city...
What if it's an era where an underground city hasn't even started construction yet, or is still under construction?
If he went in like that, wouldn't he possibly end up buried in the ground, or even inside a nuclear reactor?
I'm sorry to have bothered you so suddenly.
Non-fixed-point Spacetime Tunnel usually appear in relatively safe places, but that doesn't mean that opening a tunnel inside a volcano would guarantee safety.
Because there is no safe place inside a volcano.
If he insists on courting disaster, the system won't be able to save him.
"Exploring the matter of Wandering Spacetime requires further planning; there's something more important right now..."
Zhang Tianyuan looked at his attribute panel.
There is no longer a newbie protection period.
In other words, his island is now unprotected.
He'd better go back and check...
After leaving a message for Mutual Aid Society First Division, Zhang Tianyuan returned to his control room.
He glanced at the time: 2 PM.
Open the door to the main control room.
Zhang Tianyuan immediately sensed something was wrong.
Because the outside was completely shrouded in a thick fog.
With each step, a squeaking sound echoed beneath my feet.
Looking down, they were shocked to see a skeleton with obvious signs of corrosion!
Zhang Tianyuan was taken aback.
Immediately turn around and close the door!
