New equipment
He was the center of attention of everyone along the way.
Fortunately, the people walking ahead didn't stop to chat with Mo Yang.
"What about space?"
Mo Yang felt that now was not a good time to talk about this, so he remained silent.
"Don't worry about Xiao Zhang, it's okay, we're all on the same side."
Mo Yang was silent for a moment. "I'm not very knowledgeable about space. I'm just an ordinary physicist."
"You are anything but ordinary. You created a time machine and are the first person in human history to travel through time."
Mo Yang felt that this person had exaggerated the matter.
He turned around and glanced behind him, then turned his head back to look at the ground and said, "Initially, we didn't plan to fly back."
"you mean?"
"In other words, our experimental data was biased, which is why I ended up here."
Mo Yang paused for a moment, then continued, "To this day, I still can't remember what caused the error. It's like half of my memory has been taken away."
“Traveling through time always comes at a price,” the person in front of them said, glancing at a corner of the wall. After an iris scan, the space in front of them, which had merged with the wall, opened up to reveal a door large enough for one person to pass through.
"This is your research and development lab. See if you need anything else, and let me know, and I'll get it for you."
After saying that, the door was closed tightly, and everything returned to normal.
Looking at the familiar equipment in front of him, Mo Yang didn't know how they got it, but it was enough to show how much effort they put into this project.
Mo Yang stood up and touched the equipment with his hands, "These..."
"These are all the latest versions developed domestically. What do you think?"
Just from his tone, you could tell how arrogant this person was.
"They already had these devices at this point?" Mo Yang clearly couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"Therefore, we should not underestimate the power of the Chinese people. Of course, these are still state secrets. It is not yet time to make them public."
Mo Yang nodded knowingly.
"Furthermore, the country has already made certain progress in the research and development of Dyson spheres. If you require a large energy supply, we can provide you with sufficient energy."
How did you extract dark matter?
After asking the question, Mo Yang clearly felt the person in front of him darken his eyes. "Collecting dark matter is too complicated."
Mo Yang hesitated. The development of their future world depended entirely on acquiring dark matter.
But these people from the past era have already broken through to level two civilization and started creating Dyson spheres?
How is that possible?
"What is your purpose in using me to build a time machine? Is it for time travel?"
"Yes and no. To be precise, we need to find a way to exceed the speed of light in order to realize humanity's long-held dream of space colonization."
"Why be obsessed with space colonization? Science has proven that there is no place outside of space where humans can currently survive, not even considering other types of life."
"Creating a second home is already a achievable reality, and we have already achieved successful results in space, proving that humans can thrive in space, whether from an energy or resource perspective."
"This is just the beginning. Human bodies will become more vulnerable to space radiation, leading to radiation sickness and various degenerative diseases. Moreover, offspring bred in space will also have significant physical defects."
"Then why did you build a time machine?"
"us……"
He couldn't remember.
"If exceeding the speed of light is an inevitable path, then what we need to do is to make this inevitable path even faster. There's something I think it's necessary for you to know. Humanity learned about the extraterrestrial invasion of Earth as early as 100 years ago. Over the years, although we don't know what level the extraterrestrial forces have reached or when they will arrive on Earth, these are facts that humanity must face. What we can do is to use the power of all humanity as quickly as possible to create technological weapons that can save humanity, resist the invasion of extraterrestrial civilizations, and at the same time bring humanity's hope out of Earth and create a second home for humanity."
"That's impossible! In the future, humanity will have already reached a cooperation agreement with extraterrestrial civilizations. Aliens will be able to freely enter and leave Earth, while humanity will have obtained technological power that surpasses the development of human civilization."
"So faster-than-light travel was also brought about by aliens, rather than being discovered by you, is that right?"
"That's right, there are barriers to human civilization. If we cannot overcome the limitations that humanity has imposed on itself, we will never be able to break the curse of the speed of light."
"If Einstein heard this, he would be so angry that he would come out and argue with you."
Mo Yang had never imagined that this person could joke. His tense emotions eased a bit, and he said, "The mystery is now solved. But only a few people can understand it."
"So you firmly believe that using alien power is the right thing to do?"
Mo Yang did not understand the meaning of this sentence.
"I can tell you that if this is truly the future, then it proves that humanity has already lost without a fight. This is the worst-case scenario we are currently considering. Humanity will be taken over by an alien civilization and lose its voice forever."
"That's impossible!"
Mo Yang couldn't believe that his so-called peaceful era had been overturned with just a single sentence.
This was outside his comprehension.
"This has always been a secret we've kept hidden. Now that you know, you can imagine how humanity will react upon learning this news. The world will descend into chaos. Human will will crumble. And that's why we've kept this secret."
After a moment of silence, he said with even greater determination, "Therefore, we must obtain your power."
"Was it a lie when you said at the beginning that I was dispensable to you?"
"You are a weapon that humanity gave to itself to save all of humanity. But if this weapon falls into the hands of non-humans, who knows what irreversible consequences it will cause. Out of our desire to protect you, we are very likely to imprison you in a dark and secluded place."
As soon as he said those words, Mo Yang felt a cold sweat break out all over his body.
"The fate of all mankind is in your hands."
The man smiled and patted Mo Yang's shoulder forcefully.
Mo Yang was still feeling the weight pressing down on his shoulders when he subconsciously reached out and took the huge file bag that the person handed him.
This document bag, in terms of both size and style, would be considered a museum piece in their collection.
Mo Yang opened it and found a work ID, a bank card, a personal file, a cell phone, and a computer inside. All of these things looked very old. Mo Yang looked through them roughly, and a card suddenly fell out of his hand while he was holding the work ID.
I picked it up and looked at it, and found it was...an ID card?
The old card had a photo of him taken at some unknown time printed on it. The name on one side was the Song Yize he had lied about, and the birthday below was the day he traveled through time.
Excellent, how can this not be considered a rebirth?
"Your identity has been entered into the national archives system, and your facial recognition has been modified to be unique. As for your real name, Mo Yang, no one will know it."
Mo Yang was completely stunned.
He thought he had fooled everyone, but he forgot—could it be—that there was another him in this era?
"I hope you can adapt to life here soon. Oh, by the way, your salary will be deposited into your bank account every month. I can't guarantee you a life of luxury, but it will be enough for your basic needs."
Having said that, the man stretched out a hand.
"It's a pleasure to work with you."
Mo Yang slowly reached out and grasped her hand.
"Can I come and go as I please?"
“There are many people outside eyeing you covetously. The decision is yours. Once you step out this door, we can't guarantee your safety.” The man turned around, said these words, and walked out of Mo Yang's sight.
Mo Yang stood in the laboratory for a long time.
As I went out with the file folder, I saw Xiao Zhang standing outside the door.
"Professor Song, I'll take you to your dormitory."
Mo Yang nodded and was pushed away by the person.
Along the way, Xiao Zhang explained to Mo Yang the layout of each area, the location of the person in charge's office, how to obtain the necessary equipment and parts, and the estimated arrival time for maintenance personnel. Passing through the work area, they arrived at the living area, where he explained the location and opening hours of the cafeteria and public restrooms, as well as the pick-up and drop-off points for takeout and packages—a series of convenient living areas. Finally, he even typed the detailed mail and drop-off addresses into Mo Yang's phone.
The whole process resembled a new employee's onboarding introduction.
This anonymous employee is about to embark on an unknown journey.
After taking Mo Yang to his dormitory.
In Huang Zhongqian's office.
What do you think of him as a person?
The young officer was expressionless; he was "very suspicious."
"As an advantage, it is being careful and cautious."
"Sir, regarding his claim of amnesia..."
"It's hard to say that this isn't just an excuse to probe us."
Huang Zhongqian took a sip of tea and said, "If it's true, then it's necessary to find a neurosurgeon to come and examine him. However, there's no need to rush; let's observe his behavior for a while first."
"Yes, sir."
Upon entering the dormitory and seeing the overall environment, Mo Yang felt somewhat uncomfortable.
He lowered his head and sighed, "Starting a new account is really quite difficult."
Just as I stood up, the dormitory door was opened.
"Hello, I'm Fan Siwen, a new intern who was assigned to this dormitory room."
Mo Yang slowly turned around and saw that familiar figure.
The two looked at each other in surprise.
Fan Siwen?
Upon hearing this name, Mo Yang's nerves twitched.
He instinctively grabbed the coat from the side and handed it to the person, saying, "Your clothes, I haven't had time to wash them."
"without……"
Just as I was about to take it, I suddenly heard the alarm blaring.
Behind the siren, there was a long announcement over a loudspeaker.
"Everyone, assemble immediately in the conference room on the 5th floor! Everyone, assemble immediately in the conference room on the 5th floor! Everyone, assemble immediately in the conference room on the 5th floor!"
What's going on?
Mo Yang was somewhat at a loss, but he still got into his wheelchair and glided outside.
Fan Siwen was also stunned and stood there. What surprised him even more was how the person in front of him suddenly got into a wheelchair.
He slipped and ran after them.
Mo Yang followed the flow of people.
The wheelchair, which had been moving slowly, suddenly started turning on its own. Mo Yang turned around and saw the person behind him.
He followed the flow of people to the conference room door, during which many people made way for him.
Looking at the crowded people, Mo Yang was about to slip in when suddenly a pair of hands pulled him into another room from behind.
Fan Siwen followed him into the room.
