I synthesized the whole world

"If you want to break through, you will not only face academic problems, but also invisible shackles."

Huoshui opened his eyes wide and looked into the void, "Maybe my father's technology is enough, but it is because he cannot break that invisible limit."

"One of the main purposes of my forming the Lunch is to verify whether this limit exists."

"In the past, we have been constantly obtaining information from high-level human beings or interstellar explorers."

"Any clues, any insignificant information, we will dig deep and list it as a reference."

Cheng Qi said: "What did you collect."

"This is an invisible net, without a specific form, without specific evidence."

Huoshui 's eyes became more and more empty and confused. "People think that technology is developing rapidly, but in fact, human energy, space jump, detection and other technologies have been stagnant for 100 years. If we trace the reasons, there is no conspiracy or accident, but scientists cannot make new breakthroughs."

"Their situation is the same as my father's."

"The difference is that many of them gave up and studied some fancy but not substantial things, while my father persisted until the last moment of his life."

Cheng Qi looked up, "This is very general. Is there any more clear information?"

"The rest is some crazy talk."

Lunch is like an intelligence station, gathering all kinds of strange information.

Huoshui said slowly, "There is a quantum physicist who became mentally abnormal in his later years. He said that the reason why advanced civilizations blocked humans was because they saw the future of humans. In the future, humans will pose a huge threat and even defeat some advanced civilizations."

"So, advanced civilizations have laid [Causal Weapons] in today's human society."

"When human technology has a key breakthrough, [Causal Weapons] will take effect, produce powerful power, and directly wipe out humans."

"This is like a [Time Bomb]. If humans do not make a breakthrough and just live in humiliation, then everything will be fine, humans will not get the development they deserve, and my father will never be corrected. Everything I do is meaningless."

"But once humans make a breakthrough, the moment of opening a new future will also be the moment of losing everything."

Cheng Qi frowned.

This is something that cannot be verified at all.

Huoshui said slowly, "I collect as much information about advanced civilizations as possible, hoping to uncover some truths."

Cheng Qi looked at the Pioneer Gravitational Weapon Set beside him, "You stole them for this purpose?"

Huoshui nodded.

Cheng Qi was very confused.

Putting aside the information blockade, why did the Pioneer gravity weapon system appear on Earth out of thin air?

The Pioneer civilization has been promoted to a god-level civilization and even disappeared in the physical world. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance that they left some equipment behind, what is the probability that it will fall on Earth and in human civilization?

The universe is vast, and humans have not even left the Milky Way, so this probability is almost zero.

Cheng Qi asked: "What do you know about these two pieces of equipment?"

"I don't know their functions, and I'm not sure whether they are the creations of advanced civilizations."

Huoshui said: "I only know that they came from the donations of several humans. These humans are not big shots, but the bottom of society. They picked up these two items by accident and didn't understand their value at all. They sent these two pieces of equipment to the Universe Mysterious Material Exhibition Hall just because of the 'donation thank you fee' of 40,000 credit points."

"Is that so?"

Cheng Qi felt a little ridiculous. This was like the 'handing in' in the old days, handing in priceless antiques in exchange for a small amount of compensation and a certificate of honor.

"I often have some strange dreams."

"In the dream, the technological blockade of advanced civilizations is real, and the [Time Bomb] is also real."

"And that [Time Bomb] existed in human civilization a long time ago."

Huoshui's eyes were empty, but his pupils trembled slightly, "I dreamed of the explosion of the [Time Bomb] and the complete destruction of mankind."

Cheng Qi tilted his head, "Is it a dream you had during your two hundred years of coma?"

"No, I have been having such dreams."

Huoshui frowned unconsciously, "I also dreamed that the destruction of mankind is inevitable, but there will be a variable in the middle. He is a human being, he can change everything, but he needs a key clue, and that clue is a number."

Cheng Qi only felt a sense of unreality in his heart.

In fact, the information about "technological blockade" was mentioned in the notes of STC.

But about the person mentioned by HuoshuiClass destruction is another result, built on two illusions, a rumor without evidence, and a dream without reason.

But Cheng Qi still asked the question in his heart, "Who is that person, and what is the clue number."

Huoshui lowered his head and frowned, "I can't remember it. Every time I wake up from a dream, this information will become very vague, leaving only a rough outline."

Cheng Qi thought for a moment and confirmed that Huoshui was still in a highly suggestible state.

In this state, after receiving the corresponding instructions, humans will complete many things that they cannot do when awake.

Cheng Qi exhaled and slowly said, "Everything I said is the truth. Now you have a very strong memory. You can easily recall all the details of your life, including every dream you have ever had. Think carefully and think hard about who you dreamed of and what the so-called clue number is."

Huoshui's eyelashes trembled, and his pupils kept swinging left and right.

It was also at this time that the [Human Brain Wave Adjustment Instrument] projected a picture again, in which there was a shadow that seemed to be hidden behind the fog.

As Huoshui tried to recall, the figure gradually became clear.

Cheng Qi's eyes opened.

The figure was himself.

"It's you..."

Huoshui suddenly looked up, "The variable is you... and the clue number is... 24!"

At this moment, a huge, shining '24' appeared behind Cheng Qi in the [Human Brain Wave Adjustment Instrument].

24...

24?

24!

Cheng Qi was surprised.

When he had a 'dialogue' with Professor Huo Linzhong.

Professor Huo once told an experience that an unexpected explosion occurred in a certain muon technology experiment, and he himself fell into a coma, but the strange thing was that he seemed to have traveled through time and came to the singularity of the universe.

In the singularity, he saw a mysterious number, which was also 24!

But Professor Huo didn't know what '24' meant, but he felt an inexplicable shock in his heart.

What is even more incredible is that Professor Huo also saw Cheng Qi, and that is why he entered Cheng Qi's face in advance in the access control recognition system of the Muon Research Center.

When Cheng Qi entered the Muon Research Center, he escaped the siege of the killer rat because the access control system was opened in time.

"You are the only variable to avoid the destruction of mankind!"

"The number 24 is your guide. Please think carefully about every '24' in your life!"

"The [Time Bomb] will explode sooner or later, and only you can change it all!"

Huoshui, who was hypnotized, could no longer distinguish between reality and dreams. He became extremely frightened and panicked, and even leaned over and directly held Cheng Qi's hands, with tears in his beautiful eyes.

Cheng Qi frowned.

How should he deal with such a mysterious thing?

At this moment, Cheng Qi's portable communicator beeped.

He looked down and saw a series of messages. The senders were Valente, Mo, his elder brother Li Bolong, and even Hua Kunlun.

At this moment, a nameless wind suddenly blew.

Huoshui's veil loosened and was about to slide off his face.

Cheng Qi looked up, full of anticipation for Huoshui's true face.

But at this moment, Cheng Qi's pupils suddenly shrank. He saw that the whole room was filled with floating white light spots. He didn't know when and where they came from. They floated quietly and flickered like miniature stars.

Ying——!

A sharp sound, like a severe tinnitus, suddenly rang out.

The white light spots in the whole room suddenly became bright and swallowed everything.
