Chapter 160 Changing History
【Did you know? We have changed history! 】
Jiang Qian, who was busy developing Line 3 in the west, also saw the news released by official media on the Internet in her spare time that the disaster was suspected to be man-made.
Jiang Qian had heard about this news from the system a long time ago, so she wasn't surprised. However, she still felt regretful and sorry when she thought about the hundreds of millions of lives lost in this disaster.
"I wonder if we can get some useful clues after this news is released?"
Jiang Qian said, remembering the history of interstellar migration that the system had told her before, and sighed, "Even if I received it, it would be useless, right? Otherwise, interstellar people would not have migrated!"
She was about to change the news when she noticed the small icon in her mind suddenly flicker violently. It flickered on and off, with some pauses.
Jiang Qian suddenly had a bad feeling, because this had never happened in the system before.
"Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling? What's wrong with you?"
She felt very uneasy and could no longer read the news on her phone. Her attention was all focused on the icons in her mind.
She watched the icon flicker for a while, then slowly return to its normal state.
I'm fine.
The familiar child's voice rang in my mind, and it seemed to carry a lightness that had never been there before.
【Sorry for making you worry! 】
Knowing that everything was fine, Jiang Qian felt relieved. The system was the guarantee of their current life, and there couldn't be any problems!
But remembering the abnormality just now, she still asked, "What happened just now?"
[After hearing the news you just mentioned, I immediately checked the StarCraft database to find something!]
There was an excitement in the children's voices that was hard to ignore.
【Did you know? We have changed history! 】
Jiang Qian was stunned at first, but after she understood, joy seemed to sprout in her heart, but she quickly suppressed it.
"What do you mean? What history have we changed?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the system couldn't hold it back any longer and started talking.
I should have told you before that the interstellar people only discovered the human-caused disaster on their home planet after they migrated and when Life VII spread again on the new planet. All the information in my database previously stated this, so after hearing what you said just now, it suddenly occurred to me that if the information hadn't been leaked between us, the news released by the official media wouldn't be what you know now.
However, my database isn't comprehensive, so I just urgently requested access to all interstellar historical records covering this period. I discovered that the interstellar records of this period clearly show no human-caused disasters. This means we may have truly changed history! People today know things that our interstellar ancestors didn't.
When the system first spoke, Jiang Qian didn't know what it was talking about. After she finished speaking, Jiang Qian was stunned for a long time before she reacted.
"So what you're saying is that the current trajectory of development is different from that of interstellar history?"
The small icon in her mind flashed more violently, and Jiang Qian felt as if she could vaguely see a concrete smiling face on the small blue icon.
That’s what I mean.
The system's original mission, traveling through time and space to this world, was to eliminate Life No. 7 and change the course of history. However, no one, including the system itself, anticipated the turbulence it would encounter in the space-time tunnel. By the time it arrived here, Life No. 7 had already been leaked, leaving it too late to prevent the disaster.
Although the system later bound itself to the host and tried its best to save the difficult situation, in fact, in its mind, it felt that this was just a meaningless effort to mend the situation after the horse had bolted.
It upgraded the train step by step with Jiang Qian, but in its estimation of the current situation, even with the help of the interstellar, there was still a probability of more than 96% that this world would have to follow the path of leaving its homeland as the interstellar people did before.
Without Jiang Qian's knowledge, it had even written a mission failure report to be submitted to Interstellar. After its mission failed, it would propose that Interstellar find an opportunity to send a new artificial intelligence to an earlier time and space to eliminate Life No. 7.
But in this mood, today, it suddenly discovered that the original trajectory had been changed.
Originally there was only one road in this world, but now, a fork in the road suddenly appeared around this road, and they had already stepped onto this new road without realizing it.
The system didn't know what was on the other side of this fork in the road, but it was clear that its previous predictions were no longer accurate, and the future was no longer a fixed answer...
[Perhaps, this world can truly take a different path from Interstellar.]
The childish voice sighing like an adult sounded a bit awkward, but Jiang Qian couldn't care less. Her mind was completely consumed by the system's claim that the world had been altered by them, and her chest was churning with energy.
"Come on, tell me more about Interstellar. Let's see if there are any other changes!"
Perhaps, without them realizing it, other changes have already taken place!
These small details of historical change represent hope and are proof that their efforts can overcome this disaster.
Jiang Qian had never dared to tell anyone about the events surrounding Interstellar and Life No. 7, fearing that her own flapping of wings might cause uncontrollable consequences. Even she herself rarely thought about these matters, as they were not a pleasant experience.
But now that the news has been made public and history has changed, she is no longer afraid.
And after listening to what the system just said, she now just wanted to talk to the system about the differences in the development of the two worlds, and also wanted to see if she could find any information from the interstellar space that would be helpful to the current situation.
Just as Jiang Qian was being led by the system to search through the vast sea of interstellar historical materials, they also received news from the train affairs team.
“About the vaccine?”
While checking the information sent, Jiang Qian asked, "Xiao Ling, does Interstellar have a vaccine for Life No. 7?"
Jiang Qian has been with the system for such a long time, but she has never heard the system talk about vaccines. She herself has never thought about it either. Now she is a little confused when she suddenly looks at the information.
Although she knew that the system was an artificial intelligence, she thought she had figured out the system's temperament.
If there is a vaccine, she has been bound to the system for so long, she believes that the system will not hide it from her, but the system has never mentioned it. In addition, the system has previously mentioned the secondary disaster caused by Life No. 7 in the interstellar space. Jiang Qian guessed that the interstellar vaccine should not have been successfully developed at that time.
And the facts turned out to be just as she expected.
Because Life 7 mutated so much, and the situation was even worse back then, vaccine research progressed very slowly. This was the reason the Torch Project was implemented. Later, nearly the entire world focused on developing aerospace, so by the time the interstellar ancestors left this planet, only seven vaccines had been developed. Even during the development process, Life 7 continued to mutate, making these seven vaccines completely ineffective. That's why I've never mentioned them.
"Seven?" Although Jiang Qian didn't know what stage the vaccine research had reached, just hearing the system say that seven were not enough, she instantly felt the difficulty of vaccine research.
Even if the interstellar crisis of Life No. 7 were to re-emerge, the solution wouldn't be vaccines, but rather the strict laws and enforcement of interstellar law. All traces of Life No. 7, even its home planet billions of light-years away, would be cleared and sealed.
"So there's nothing else to do with vaccines?"
The interstellar people could clean up and seal off their home planet, but those living on this planet couldn't do the same. Compared to the interstellar people's approach, Jiang Qian still felt that developing a vaccine was more reliable.
[Yes, but it was impossible to achieve at that time.]
The system said, "If we can find the most original data of Life No. 7 or the parent organism before it mutated, we might be able to develop a few universal vaccines. However, by that time, the interstellar people will have left their home planet, and the data found in the underground interstellar research institute will not be very comprehensive."
According to the confessions of wealthy individuals and researchers who privately participated in the interstellar migration, much of the data was lost long ago during the interstellar migration process, and the data they obtained was incomplete from the beginning...
"Then where did they get their information?" Jiang Qian asked, suddenly remembering something. "Oh, right, you said the interstellar people sent you to solve Life No. 7. Do you know where the research institute in this space-time is? Can we find complete information about Life No. 7 there?"
I don't know where the institute is located. Throughout the years of disaster, anyone who knew about it has long since died. According to the testimonies of those involved in the interstellar incident, some of the information was accidentally obtained, while others were gathered bit by bit from various sources.
I had originally planned to investigate here, but Life 7 had already been leaked by then, so I could only use my remaining energy on warnings. Later, the world network was disconnected, and I ran out of energy...
"But we are still here and we haven't left this planet yet, so isn't it still not too late? We can collect energy and find more clues."
Jiang Qian wasn't pessimistic. "Besides, we've already changed history, haven't we? Perhaps we can change even more next time?"
Because of her positive emotions, even the system that always relies on data could not help but be infected.
You are right. Everything depends on human effort.
The previously developed vaccine was destroyed long ago due to concerns that it could be secretly reverse engineered and leak information about Life 7. However, information about the vaccine is archived in StarCraft. While it's highly confidential and may take some time to discuss, I believe the application should be approved.
Jiang Qian was very happy that the system was willing to help. "Then you apply first, and then we can look in the database to see if there is any information that can be helpful now!"
【good! 】
…
After the system applied to the Star System, it and Jiang Qian plunged into the database and remained silent for several days, which made the members of the train affairs team who had been waiting for a reply very anxious.
【Author’s words】
Regarding vaccine research and other things, the author has no relevant knowledge and is just making it up. Just take a look at it, everything serves the plot.
I haven't read any comments lately because I want to focus on finishing this one. If you have any suggestions or bugs, please leave a comment and I'll take a closer look.
