By the time we left the antique street, it was already dark.

"Xiaoqian, remember to come visit me when you have time."

Mo Yuanzhi reluctantly came out to see me off, saying, "Look at me, a lonely old man, I've just arrived here and don't know anyone. I haven't found our organization yet, so I really need friends like you to take care of me."

He clearly wasn't satisfied with just playing chess and wished he could play a few more games with Mu Qian.

They did put on a pitiful act.

"We'll talk about it when we have time." Mu Qian smiled insincerely and waved goodbye.

"Don't just have free time, you can do it every day..."

Mo Yuanzhi looked longingly at her retreating figure and said, "I'm so old now. If I suddenly suffer from a cerebral hemorrhage or myocardial infarction, you can come and see me every day. That will definitely help prolong my life."

Mu Qian calmly left, completely ignoring Mo Yuanzhi's pitiful attempts to stop her.

This old man loves to use the "bitter flesh" ruse.

Watching Mu Qian leave without looking back, Mo Yuanzhi inwardly groaned.

That little girl is utterly inhuman and cold-blooded.

I want to cry!

Base Nine.

"Dr. Fu, the situation outside is not optimistic, and our people are starting to feel uneasy."

"How about we start arranging for some people to be transferred there first?"

"I'm afraid that if we don't start making arrangements now, it might be too late once the virus enters Base Nine."

In recent days, death tolls have been continuously reported around the world.

Furthermore, hordes of zombies are spreading and attacking healthy people as well.

The end of the world is already on the countdown.

Fu Liangping sat in a high-backed swivel chair, his arms resting on the armrests, his hands crossed in front of his chest.

My eyes were fixed on the large screen, displaying death tolls from around the world.

"Don't rush, wait a little longer."

He calmly said, "That world is, after all, a created, illusory world. We cannot yet guarantee whether it will function properly or whether it will suddenly disappear."

"We cannot give up here until all the data have reached their highest values."

"But..." The confidant hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Alright, what you need to do now is stabilize morale, not panic like them," Fu Liangping said sternly.

"Yes!" the confidant replied.

"You can leave now," Fu Liangping said.

Just as the confidant was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Doctor, we haven't been able to find Old Mo these past few days."

"What did you say?" Fu Liangping jumped up from his swivel chair.

A flicker of panic crossed his wrinkled face and deep eyes. "Find him. Turn the entire Base Nine upside down. We have to find him."

The trusted aide was in a dilemma, "Doctor, we've searched everywhere, but we can't find Old Mo. We suspect..."

"He might have just walked right through."

In the entire Base Nine, apart from Mu Qian, Mo Yuanzhi is the only person who can activate the instrument to perform human time travel without relying on others.

Yes.

Currently, only Mu Qian and Mo Yuanzhi can directly travel through the human body's time tunnel.

Others only extract brainwaves to transmigrate into the book.

Don't be fooled by Mo Yuanzhi's usual laziness and lack of ambition.

But he's on good terms with Mu Qian, the genius from Base Nine, so it's normal for him to secretly learn some skills.

Fu Liangping's face immediately darkened.

He originally thought that even if Mu Qian was not around, he still had Mo Yuanzhi as a backup plan.

I never expected this!

"Let's send a portion of the people over first; this matter can't be delayed any longer," Fu Liangping finally agreed.

I was originally thinking that even if the virus eventually infiltrated Base Nine...

As long as Mo Yuanzhi is there, traveling through the human body's time tunnel is only a matter of seconds.

Unlike brainwave extraction, which takes at least 24 hours to transmit, this method is different.

What Fu Liangping has always been concerned about is not that the human body cannot directly travel through time and space.

Rather, they fear that once they wear it, it will be very difficult to get it back.

After all, there has never been a precedent of someone traveling back in time.

Brainwaves are different; they've conducted experiments showing that they can be restored simply by operating the equipment.

“Yes, I’ll take care of it right away,” the confidant said.

Fu Liangping's brows furrowed deeply; he hadn't expected this at all...

This happened so unexpectedly.

If Xu Qingfeng hadn't deliberately spilled the bottle containing the virus back then, things probably wouldn't have turned out this badly.

He never imagined that the virus would be so powerful, bringing such a devastating blow to humanity.

This was not the outcome he had anticipated, nor was it an outcome he could control.

Now we're caught in a dilemma.

There is no cure for the virus.

Another world, after all, is just a fictional world, and it's uncertain whether it can last long.

But if what that person said is true, Mu Qian really is the initiator of another world.

This was his greatest hope.
