Although he is a human who came to the Crisis Era through hibernation technology many years ago, he is full of vitality.

Xizi, a member of the fleet following him, observed this "antique" from the past with curiosity.

Although he is an old man, his every move is full of power and he is more energetic than a young man like him.

"Mr. Ding, I feel like you're in very good shape today."

The inspector "Xizi" who was in charge of the auxiliary work said with a smile:

"Yesterday I saw you looking worried. It seems that you are also aware of the huge gap between our human fleet and the Trisolaran fleet."

"We have already told you not to worry. The fleet is now able to reach 15% of the speed of light, so there is no need to worry about a Trisolaran invasion."

"Yes...right." Ding Yi smiled unconsciously.

It was indeed as the girl said, there was no trace of the sadness from the previous few days, and her expression still had a hint of the rebelliousness of her youth.

At the moment, he was on the external communication channel, so he didn't say much.

As a member of the chat group, he of course knew what the three-body probe called "water drop" by human society was.

Made of strong interaction materials, the technical difficulty is not much easier than using a set of connecting rods to fix the sun and the eight planets into a set of stationary trusses.

If he continues to follow this order, he will die, and then only a few of the 2,000 human fleets will escape.

Until the logic from the AD era deterred each other, the entire human race was under the shadow of destruction.

Sadly, everything is different now.

A hint of emotion flashed across Ding Yi's eyes as he felt the vigorous power contained within this seemingly old body.

This is the power to change your destiny.

Change your own destiny and change the destiny of mankind.

At this time, Mantis has successfully captured the water droplet.

Its perfect appearance, like a work of art, and its absolutely smooth surface intoxicated everyone watching the live broadcast, and made them feel the mutual communication between the Trisolaran and human artistic fields.

Including Ding Yi, all four members of the expedition team wore light flight suits.

After receiving clear instructions from the fleet, they swam through the docking hatch in weightlessness and entered the Mantis that captured the water droplet.

When Xizi saw the water drop for the first time, she commented with emotion: "It is simply a tear of the Virgin Mary."

This sentence directly aroused widespread consensus among the human society during the live broadcast, and people felt that the Trisolarans also possessed "love" just like humans.

Ding Yi remained silent and made no comment. Compared with what he was going to do next, it would cause an uproar among humans or the Trisolaran fleet.

Thinking of this, he looked to the right, and there was nothing there...?

In Ding Yi's sight, there was a particle with a diameter of less than one nanometer.

From the beginning, it circled around the four people in a regular pattern, making Ding Yi feel like he was being treated like a monkey in a zoo.

That is the highest command crystal of the Three-Body World, "Sophon".

At this moment, all the Trisolarans that Zhizi was observing were startled by this sudden eye contact.

Since there were no secrets among the Trisolarans, they all felt the surprise of their companions.

"Did he discover us?"

"This is definitely just a coincidence, Observer 226. After today's mission, you need to receive psychological counseling. You have been too deeply influenced by the myths and fantasies of human society."

The Trisolaran leader at the side said: "For a moment you actually had the illusion that you could distinguish elementary particles with your naked eyes."

"Yes, Führer." The observer lowered his head, feeling the absurdity of his previous fantasy.

"Next, let us take a good look at the ugliness of human society." The leader said: "Let humans drown in their own arrogant fantasies."

"Remember, after the weapons are activated, no fleet can be left alive, and the signals from the solar system must be completely blocked. The destruction of the galaxy next door has proven the Dark Forest Theory is correct."

"Yes, Leader." The Trisolarans around responded.

The view returned to Ding Yi. The lieutenant colonel motioned Ding Yi to come forward and urged him, "Dr. Ding, we don't have much time."

Because of the internal power struggle, the first person to come into contact with Waterdrop must be Ding Yi, an amateur.

Ding Yi nodded seriously, and then slowly approached the water drop in the weightless environment of outer space.

Looking at the creation in front of him, Ding Yi stroked the water drop with his gloved right hand, lamenting the generation gap between the two civilizations in technology and mentality.

The lieutenant colonel standing by was extremely surprised: "I can't feel any friction at all. The surface of the water droplet is too smooth."

"Because it is made of strong interaction material, it is more than a hundred times stronger than the hardest substance in the solar system." Ding Yi said with emotion, no longer hiding it.

At this moment, he didn't need a so-called high-tech microscope to magnify 10 million times to study.

Just by using the naked eye, one can see the horror of the entire water droplet at its microscopic level.

"What! Strong interaction material!"

The colonel was surprised, and the countless human scientists who were watching the live broadcast were shocked by the technological gap and thought of the square stele in 2001.

Ding Yi stopped answering and continued to talk to himself: "I have come to a conclusion from my short life that the capabilities of science and technology have their limits."

“The more you believe in technology, the more likely you will be conquered by more powerful technology, so I’m trying to change my career path.”

The three members of the expedition team and the entire human civilization were all stunned. What on earth was this old man, who had been doing scientific research all his life, talking about?

"Mr. Ding, stop talking nonsense." Xizi, who was standing by, handed over the geological hammer in her hand, but was gently pushed away by Ding Yi.

"We don't need this kind of external object anymore." Ding Yi said slowly.

As he talked, the muscles on his body bulged and seemed to be inflating and growing stronger.

"Crack! Crack! Squeak~ Squeak~"

The expedition team, the Three-Body Civilization, and human civilization were all in collective shock.

The flight suit that was bound to Ding Yi was stretched and torn by his bulging muscles.

As the upper body flight suit was damaged, in the blink of an eye, Ding Yi changed from a skinny old man into a muscular man with a white beard and muscular body.

"What the hell is this!!!" Everyone was completely stunned, and their previous worldviews had undergone a subversive change.

An old man became younger in front of all of them, and his muscles bulged bigger than most girls' chests.

The devil muscle man version of Ding Yi said: "Now all I can rely on is my well-tempered body."
