[Comprehensive English and American] Ripples in time and space

Thankfully, Kylie's trust doesn't appear to be wrong, at least for the next two years.Xin Zang led the mining ship and took great risks to collect ten lithium crystals in the Heber galaxy; and the mining ship led by Nero, who was originally operating in that area, was also persuaded by Spock and voluntarily covered them.Finally, a few months before Kelly was about to return, the Vulcan Academy of Sciences successfully developed a sufficient amount of red matter.

"I heard you signed up today." One afternoon, with a slam on the door, Kelly rushed into Spock's house. Kirk, who was pouring coffee next to him, was startled by the sudden noise and shook his hand. With a wave of Kelly's hand, she put the spilled coffee back into the cup without giving him a glance, "Spock, why did you sign up? This is a suicidal mission at all!"

"According to current estimates," Spock said calmly, "the probability that the mission executor will successfully escape from the black hole and survive is—"

"—2.83%, it's still a suicide mission." Kelly said disapprovingly, "If the sun in the Heber galaxy has exploded and destroyed the Romulans, I can understand if you feel guilty about it. But you have already completed the task very well, Mr. Spock, why do you want to die yourself? You are the best ambassador between Vulcan and Romulan, you can do more and better things if you survive matter!"

"Oh, when we were young, we performed a lot of tasks with a success rate lower than 2.83%." Kirk smiled and took the words, "Besides, we are both very old, and it is the last time to take a risk." , It is also quite exciting. This is also a good start and a good end, and young people don’t have to take risks.”

"I knew it—Spock went, and you must go too." Kelly sighed, "Please, two ambassadors, you really don't need it. If you survive, you can do more and more meaningful things." matter."

"So, who is going to carry out the task of creating black holes and destroying the stars in the Heber galaxy?" Spock asked slowly, "Except for me, only Captain Nero has applied for it on his own. I think we should compare with him." good."

"I can go," Kelly said calmly, "I'm not going to die anyway."

Kirk sat up straight: "What do you mean?"

"It means that I underestimated the noble sentiments of the two of you, so now I have to tell you the truth about your identities." Kelly shrugged, "However, it's better to say this in front of Bucky—by the way , and Captain Picard and Xin Zang. Would you like to come over? Or should I ask Bucky to come over?"

Kirk and Spock looked at each other, stood up together, and followed her to the door.Spock asks, "So, you're not from the 20th century? Didn't you learn these things through the Timeline? Or did your magical abilities come about through the Timeline?"

"Strictly speaking, none of the three items." Kelly shrugged, "However, I didn't mean to lie to you—if I told you that these things were predicted by me, would you believe me?"

She took Kirk and Spock into the house, and communicated with Captain Picard and Xinzang.Then there is the usual thing that happens in every world-a slightly concealed explanation of her true identity.Fortunately, the psychological quality of those present is generally quite high. Hearing her commentary, they are not as surprised as the people of the era of Captain America and Bucky.

No one interrupted until she said that she would return every ten years and that death in the worlds she traveled through was not considered real death.It wasn't until Kelly had finished speaking that Spock slowly asked, "Are you sure this is the real thing, not..."

"Isn't it the hallucination I experienced in Shihui?" Kelly shook her head, "No, I'm sure. Several of us here have experienced Shihui, haven't we? The abilities in hallucinations can't be brought to reality. I can do magic."

Xin Zang asked: "But—why are you able to travel between different worlds? You said that higher beings endow you with this ability. What is their goal?"

"I can't say the goal." Kelly shook her head apologetically, "But is it important to have a goal? When you sailed in space and came into contact with different civilizations and life, didn't you also encounter many people who couldn't reach the goal? A neurosis deduced by common sense and human logic?"

She spent a lot of time answering their questions one by one. Finally, Spock nodded: "Okay, I will negotiate with the Vulcan Senate."

During her last week in this world, Kelly and Bucky were aboard a tiny spaceship designed to transport red matter, the Jellyfish.

Both she and Bucky need to go through urgent training, but ten years of life is enough for them to basically master the operation of the technology here, which is not a problem. The "Jellyfish" is loaded with enough red matter to destroy the sun of the Heber galaxy twice, and Kelly and Bucky need to take out part of it to create a black hole to swallow the star that is about to explode.Then, there is a 97.17% chance that the small spaceship they are on will also be sucked into the black hole and disappear in it ever since.

There is still a 2.83% chance that they can survive, but no one else knows that Kelly and Bucky have privately agreed to give up this tiny chance of survival.For one thing, if they really traveled to a parallel world, the red matter would be obtained by forces in that world whose timeline was hundreds of years behind, and it might be used for evil.Second, in case they did not travel to other worlds, but were just sucked into the black hole - the time in the black hole will stagnate or even flow backwards, Kelly doesn't know how this situation will be judged by the time travel space, if this is judged as If the ten-year limit is not reached, they may stay in the black hole forever and cannot escape.Therefore, she and Bucky agreed that once it was determined that the stars in the Heber galaxy were destroyed, they would immediately blow up the spaceship.This situation will also detonate the remaining red matter, thus creating a larger black hole than originally expected, but this situation has been discussed in the contingency plan of the Vulcan Academy of Sciences, and the results are found to be within the controllable range , except that the jellyfish and some stars with no life at all are implicated by the black hole, there will be no other losses.

To this day, the Romulan Council still refuses to look directly at the great harm that the Heberian sun may cause, and rejects any attempt by the Star Federation to intervene.In order not to cause a diplomatic accident, the mining ship Nalanda voluntarily carried the Jellyfish to the vicinity of the Heb galaxy—even if Captain Nero followed closely, he would face the risk of being judged by the Romulan Tribunal, and might even be judged treason.

Although after the destruction of Romulan, he became a crazy and tyrannical Avenger, but at the moment, Captain Nero is still a very reasonable person.He parked the Nalanda on the edge of the Heb galaxy, a place where it would not be affected.As the Jellyfish slowly moved away from the mining ship, the ship's communication screen lit up and divided into four parts: Kirk and Spock, Xin Zang, Captain Picard and his bridge team, and the long-distance commander Watts. Scholars of Kent Academy of Sciences.Kelly smiled and waved to them: "Don't worry."

"I hope to see you return safely." Captain Picard said seriously.

"I don't think there is much hope, but don't worry, Bucky and I will go home soon." Kelly laughed.Both Spock and Kirk raised their hands in a Vulcan salute to her: "Live long and prosper."

Kelly and Bucky salute back.Xin Zang pursed his lips and did not speak, but Bucky spoke first: "Come on, we all love you."

"Thank you." Xin Zang's voice trembled slightly.

But, after all, time is running out.One by one the three screens went off, until the screen on which the Vulcan scientist was sitting took over the entire frame.Although Kelly and Bucky have received training, it is only temporary. For the sake of insurance, in the end, the scholars of the Vulcan Academy of Sciences will guide them to extract the red matter step by step, put it in a special container, and then set the procedure The container projected towards the fiery red star that had occupied the sight of the entire spaceship screen in front of it.

Kelly pressed the projection button herself, and looked back at Bucky: Bucky pressed the self-destruct button of the spaceship at the same moment, and started a ten-second countdown.He turned off the countdown sound, only the bright red numbers appeared in the corner of the screen: 9, 8, 7, 6...

When the number displayed reached 4, the center of the star seemed to be distorted suddenly, and then the space there was torn apart, curled up, pulling the rest of the outer stars, and the jellyfish not far from the star rolled inward together. past.Kelly breathed a sigh of relief, and took her finger off the button that terminated the self-explosion.She and Bucky smiled at each other, fingers intertwined.

In the middle of the jellyfish being sucked into the black hole, the self-explosion countdown on the screen jumped to 0.

The author has something to say: Once upon a time on Weibo, I saw fans complaining: The journey of the enterprise account is to discover new civilizations, new races, and new neuroses.

Very reasonable.

I think the captains who have experienced all kinds of psychosis should no longer be surprised by the real identities of Kelly and Bucky.
