Mingyuanxing, Anzheng City.
A small, cheap rental house.
Lin Tao stood in front of the window. It was late autumn and the rustling night wind blew on his face, making him feel cool.
"Mingyuan Star, Federation Calendar Year 1993."
Lin Tao stretched out his hand, feeling the coolness seeping into his bones with his fingertips, and his eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
Several hours passed...
Lin Tao finally confirmed one thing: he was still alive and well.
At this moment, the last scene in his memory was an explosion, a sudden and uncontrollable explosion.
While Lin Tao was feeling the cool night breeze, his mind was constantly reminiscing. Of course, what he was reminiscing about was not the explosion, but the information related to the year 1993 in the Federal Calendar.
If this is the year 1993 in the federal calendar, then Lin Tao is a person from the future.
That's right, before the explosion, Lin Tao was in the year 4357 of the Federal Calendar. If the time is more precise, it was October 6, 4357 of the Federal Calendar, at 4:25 pm.
Why could Lin Tao remember it so clearly? Because that was the time when Lin Tao was debugging the mecha. In addition, Lin Tao also has the special ability of photographic memory.
At the same time, this ability enabled him to completely remember all the information that appeared in computer documents and books in later generations.
Thinking of this, Lin Tao couldn't help but rub his temples gently.
In later times, humans were attacked by terrifying space creatures and eventually had to retreat back to the solar system, using it as their last bastion to fight the giant insects. In this situation, Lin Tao, a master of ancient martial arts mechas, had to fight these terrifying creatures every day.
The monotonous and repetitive things every day can easily make people collapse. As a combatant, you can still get a lot of care from the Interstellar Federation. Ordinary combatants rely on some entertainment to numb themselves every day.
Lin Tao is different from them. Due to his background, Lin Tao has less exposure to this kind of entertainment, so he usually reads a lot and studies to improve his skills.
His photographic memory allowed him to quickly finish reading all the relevant information. In this case, Lin Tao had no choice but to read the rest of the books. Slowly, almost all the remaining information of the entire Human Interstellar Federation, including all walks of life and even historical materials, were memorized in his mind.
Fortunately, he was able to write down a lot of information, and Lin Tao was thankful.
"Well, the year 1993 in the Federal Calendar?" Suddenly, Lin Tao narrowed his eyes slightly.
To be honest, although he has a photographic memory and has memorized most of the information, Lin Tao can only throw up his hands when it comes to the year 1993 in the Federal Calendar.
Years that can be recorded in historical documents generally involve events that have had a significant impact on future generations, such as the emergence of new technologies or the occurrence of special events.
However, there is no record in 1993 of the Federal Calendar.
"There is no record of this year, but there is a lot of information about the next two years."
Lin Tao sorted it out a bit, and records related to this information quickly appeared in his mind, filling up an entire page.
Since the emergence of the Human Interstellar Federation, it has conducted extensive exploration of the starry sky and discovered many planets suitable for human habitation. Those who are active in the front have been awarded the title of wealthy families due to their great contributions. Among these wealthy families, Su, Chen, Zhao, Lin, Liu, Wang, Dai and Shi are the largest, and those small and medium-sized wealthy families have gradually gathered into these eight families.
In the year 1995 of the Federation Calendar, an event occurred in the Human Interstellar Federation that was enough to rewrite future history: the eight great families announced their separation from the Human Interstellar Federation.
This is an event that could spark a war.
The war was like a spark, ready to break out! This war within the human race lasted for hundreds of years.
However, this is not the key to ultimately rewriting human history, because this war only allowed the rapid development of mechas and other war equipment developed by humans.
The key trigger was a terrifying star creature that suddenly appeared hundreds of years after the war. This was an enemy that looked like a bug and was incredibly aggressive.
This kind of star creature can not only survive in the starry sky, but also make short-distance leaps in the starry sky. In addition, these star creatures also have a shell that can be compared to top-grade metal.
Once this ferocious beast appears, wherever it goes, the stars will be destroyed and people will die, and human beings will feel like they have fallen into hell.
In the end, humans were forced to retreat back to their place of origin - the Earth's solar system.
In the time and space where Lin Tao was, the huge human interstellar federation was completely reduced to a small planetary federation.
And just when he arrived at this space and time, the last line of defense of the solar system was almost broken.
It is for this reason that countless people in later generations wanted to know why the eight major families at that time announced their withdrawal, because the eight major families at that time had already stood at the top of the Human Interstellar Federation and could even affect the future of the Human Interstellar Federation.
Moreover, if they had not escaped, leading to the subsequent war, those terrifying star creatures would not necessarily have appeared.
According to records, humans in later generations have discovered that this kind of star creature is very sensitive to combat. As long as human mechas send out combat signals, they can easily attract a large number of these enemies.
As a person from later generations, Lin Tao also wanted to find out the truth. It was for this reason that he read a lot of information about this time period in order to find out the truth. He even looked up some unofficial history from the computer.
Unfortunately, even though Lin Tao read a lot, he couldn't find the secret.
"In the year 1993 of the Federal calendar..."
This year has appeared in Lin Tao's mouth for the third time. Although he was saying this year, Lin Tao was thinking about something else in his mind.
Mingyuan Star! At this moment, Lin Tao is on Mingyuan Star.
It is recorded in detail in later materials that the first place where the star creatures appeared was Mingyuan Star. As soon as the worm-shaped star creatures appeared, they turned the planet into dust and completely disappeared from the starry sky.
…
…
Three days later.
Lin Tao stood in front of the window again. He stretched and looked up at the rising sun.
The warm sunshine falling on his body made him feel comfortable.
Since there was a lot of information related to the Federal Calendar 1995, Lin Tao spent a lot of time sorting it out. While sorting out the information, Lin Tao also discovered that this body seemed to have suffered a lot of injuries.
Lin Tao's situation was one of rebirth through borrowing another's body, because the explosion had completely shattered him into pieces, and he no longer existed.
So Lin Tao was surprised and excited to be able to appear in this time and space. The closer he got to the year 1995 in the federal calendar, the more he could secretly find out the secret of the separation of the eight giants.
For three days, Lin Tao sorted out the information in his mind while secretly recuperating from his injuries.
It has to be said that this body is extremely weak, but this is not the key point. This body also has a hidden disease, which is the key reason why Lin Tao feels physical pain.
"Forget it, as long as we come back from training and prepare a potion, we can solve it."
Lin Tao shook his neck, feeling the warmth of the rising sun. He returned to the rental house, did some warm-up exercises first, and then performed a set of military boxing according to his memory.
Military boxing is a compulsory daily course for mecha masters of the ancient martial arts department in later generations.
After practicing military boxing, Lin Tao felt better and began to do special training on the five fingers of both hands.
Under Lin Tao's control, the five fingers were seen changing strangely in peculiar postures, and each time they were stretched out, they appeared at unexpected angles.
This set of special finger training methods originated from a martial art in later generations called Cun Jin, which was taught to Lin Tao by his instructor himself.
Thinking of the instructor, Lin Tao frowned. According to the instructor, he was the descendant of the eight great families. After coming to this time and space, he didn't know if he could meet his old friends.
The weather on Mingyuan Star changes suddenly and without any warning.
The sun was rising just a moment ago, but after Lin Tao finished practicing military boxing and training his five fingers, dark clouds appeared and covered the sun in an instant.
The sky was dark.
Swish!
A thick flash of lightning, like an endless giant sword, seemed to split the dark sky in half and illuminated the surrounding environment.
There are tall buildings everywhere, and the rental house looks a bit out of place against the backdrop of nearby tall buildings.
After a few dull rumbles of thunder.
Heavy rain fell from the sky with a loud splash, making a pattering sound as it landed on the ground.
"Another thunderstorm?" Lin Tao shook his head.
It seemed that before the mecha exploded, it also encountered a sudden thunderstorm, which damaged the mecha's engine and caused the explosion of the energy system.
后世的机甲,结构已经不同于现阶段的机甲了,就连能源系统也已经采用了生物级能源,这种能源虽然稳定,可一旦发生爆炸,甚至不下于一颗核弹。
“真是无妄之灾。”林涛又是一阵猛地挠头。
嗡……嗡……
就在这时,林涛感受手腕传来一阵震动,低头一看,原来是套在手腕上的一只腕表。
这是通讯腕表。
联邦历两千年左右的科技颇为发达,一个小小的腕表不但自带超远距离的通讯功能,还能当成微型电脑来对机甲进行控制,在接下来的两千年里,人类仍然用着同样性能的腕表,甚至还用来代替身份证的存在。
因为战争的出现,以及恐怖星空生物的来袭,使得人类科技的发展方向一直朝着战争方面,无力于生活科技,所以腕表的性能并无较大长进。
不过,腕表作为身份证使用的一点,却是一直没有改变,出去之后,只要亮出腕表,在经由扫码之后,就能确定林涛此时的身份。
而且,后世由于亚空间技术的横空出现,林涛所在的时代,腕表还开发出了储备机甲本体的功能。
只是,现在林涛手腕的这个通讯腕表,成色较旧,明显属于二手货。
后世林涛曾经收藏过好几款通讯腕表,他一眼就看出,这个二手货,属于早期的阉割型腕表,别说微型电脑有,就是通讯能力也较弱,根本无法在星球以外的范围使用。
无需多想,这个通讯肯定来自明远星内。
伸手点开了通讯键。
“林涛吗?”
腕表中传来了一把温和女声,声音颇为悦耳,以林涛的经验可以感觉出来,声音的主人绝不超出25。
搜索了一下脑海记忆,林涛始终无法搜索出这把声音的主人,不由沉声反问:“你是什么人?”
这个年代,由于通讯的普及,使得很多人都开始钻空子,利用通讯来进行行骗,而通讯方一般都会用悦耳女声来进行麻痹,一旦把持不住,或是心生贪念,钱财被骗还是小事,甚至还有人被骗得全身器官都被卖了出去。
只是,林涛不说话还好,这话一出口,对方明显呆了一会。
“林涛。”腕表对面的声音瞬间冷却下来,如同冰箱里头的冰块一般,让林涛生生打了个颤。
“你已经旷了三天的课,早上十点再见不到人,作为你的导师,我将会向学校申请,把你在本校的一切成绩全部作废。”
腕表对面传来怒声咆哮,不等林涛开口,更是单方面强行掐断了通讯。
“这……”
林涛呆了好一阵子,随后猛地一拍脑门,直到这个时候,他也终于想起这把声音的主人了。
来到这片时空,林涛一直在理清脑海资料的同时,也在为身体养伤,至于这副身体原主人的信息,却是一直被刻意封印了起来。
此刻,听到通讯对面的怒火,林涛终于解除了身体原主人被封印的记忆。
林涛,17岁,无父无母,自小在安正市孤儿院长大,13岁时自学了机甲维修技术,并靠着这个本事赚取了不少钱,最后感觉技术瓶颈,又在风信子机甲学院申请了机甲维修的晋修。
这把声音的主人,正正是林涛所晋修课程的导师。
