This Game Is Too Realistic

...This is the Gemini. We have received an order from the command center and will assist you in executing the 'Final Battle' plan. Please open the deflector shield, guide our landing ship to land, and hand over work with our personnel. .

This is the Orion... We have received your request and are confirming it with the command...

... Gemini received... (noise)... please reply as soon as possible...

The Orion has received... We are unable to confirm the legality of the order and apply to submit it to the military commission for arbitration...

...The request is dismissed. This is a time of war. Our enemies are slaughtering our people. We do not have time to wait for the committee's arbitration. Please execute the order immediately!

...(noise)...

...Call Orion, what are you doing? Our ship has detected unstable gravitational field fluctuations. Please shut down the warp engine and deflector shield immediately! I repeat, shut down the warp engine and deflector shield immediately and undergo inspection. !”

...(noise)...

……Good night.

Zhao Tianhe didn't have many choices.

He was almost certain that the neutron torpedoes on the Gemini had been aimed at him and his men from the moment he disobeyed the order, and would definitely strike before he entered the hyperspace channel.

If he chooses to resign himself to his fate, it will be equivalent to committing suicide with the entire crew of the Orion, and handing over the tens of thousands of neutron torpedoes on the ship to the group of crazy people who are red-eyed.

For the sake of the Constitution he was loyal to and the survivors on the surface, he had no choice but to fire the neutron torpedo on the launcher at friendly forces while starting the warp engine.

This is his decision alone.

However, it did get the tacit approval of all the officers and soldiers of the unit.

They and Zhao Tianhe are the same type of people, they are both traditional soldiers who are not so conservative among the conservatives.

They would rather turn their guns on themselves than on their unarmed compatriots.

Under the cover of gravitational field disturbance, the torpedo successfully hit the Gemini.

The continuously accelerating torpedo can resist the rejection of the deflector shield and release a high-energy neutron beam after the warhead penetrates the hull armor.

The crew of Three Thousand will die in an instant, without even realizing they are dying, and the process will be painless.

At the same time, the Orion cruiser also jumped into the hyperspace channel at the same time.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, so except for a few crew members who participated in the rebellion, the vast majority of the crew on the ship had almost no knowledge.

This is actually for their own good.

After all, no matter what the reason is, it is a fact that the Orion sank friendly forces.

That's also three thousand lives, and it can't be easily dismissed with a word of extenuating circumstances.

Those who issue orders and those who execute them will eventually be judged by the law, and Zhao Tianhe has never thought of excusing his crimes.

He just hopes to put as much responsibility on himself as possible and let his subordinates bear as little as possible, so as to reduce or avoid punishment.

As for now, what he has to do is to bring the truth back to the solar system as soon as possible and stop the so-called final war conspiracy of the top brass of the Aerospace Forces.

That is not a war for the future of civilization at all, it is simply a replica of the Torch Project!

This is what happened to the Orion cruiser before it entered the hyperspace lane.

What happened after that was a strange situation witnessed by all the crew members on the ship.

They're stuck in a hyperspace channel...

Zhao Tianhe frankly told Luo Yi and Wu Xinghuan the whole incident.

Regardless of whether the two of them can accept it emotionally, they have no other choice now.

...I don't expect my confession to be forgiven or understood by you. My faults will naturally be judged by the law, and I have no intention of escaping. But now is not the time to do this. We must unite to get through this. difficulties.”

One of you is a known survivor, and the other is the most knowledgeable scholar on the ship. You are the ones most likely to break the situation.

When he said this, Zhao Tianhe looked at Dr. Wu and said seriously.

Especially you, I want to hear your advice...whether the method I mentioned is feasible.

Deceiving the observer who opened the box...there is no precedent for this kind of thing, and there can be no 'successful examples' left.

Wu Xinghuan touched his nose and felt the trembling of his index finger.

This will be a big gamble.

But it seems to be the only chance of winning.

They must take the initiative to give up all the things they are destined to give up, which may not only be life, but also other things including glory and faith...

And the only result is to let the part that can survive survive.

In other words, it is the unobserved part, or the part whose life or death is uncertain.

After serving on this starship for so long, this was the first time he felt such heavy pressure.

Facing the pairs of eyes, he took a deep breath and continued calmly.

First we have to change the layout of the ship, including the coating on the outside of the ship, the markings... and sending away the people who open the boxes before leaving the hyperspace channel.

But these are actually trivial things. We and the Gemini are sister ships, so it's not difficult to disguise ourselves as each other...the real difficulty is the other two things.

Looking at the three people who were listening carefully, Wu Xinghuan raised two fingers and continued calmly.

First we must understand the heavenly beings. At present, we only know from the words of the 'box opener' that they are a collection of digital beings, and they have no good intentions towards the survivors on earth.

Zhao Tianhe frowned.

Isn't this enough?

Wu Xinghuan shook his head.

Of course it's not enough. First of all, the 'box opener' is only one of the 'observers.' The information he learns is neither equal to the information learned by all observers, nor is it equal to absolutely accurate information.

If you want the two pieces to be spliced ​​together perfectly, every edge and corner must match...otherwise we will encounter trouble at the causal level.

Wu Mengke asked thoughtfully.

What's the trouble at the causal level?

This is unknown. Anything is possible. After all, the people we meet cannot tell us, Wu Xinghuan shrugged and continued, Maybe we fell into a black hole, maybe we were hit by a meteorite... Of course, these are too It’s just childish, I’m more inclined to think that we will be locked in a hyperspace channel and completely lost in the gap of time, or we will become ghosts in the quantum state, some people can see us, and some people can’t.”

The three of them looked at each other.

This kind of thing is too weird, they really can't imagine what it is like.

In fact, let alone them, Wu Xinghuan himself could not imagine it.

Everything he said was theoretical speculation, and what he described theoretically happened to be theoretically invisible.

Zhao Tianhe was silent for a while and continued.

We can simulate a digital life and hide behind it. It's not difficult... and then what?

Wu Xinghuan nodded and continued.

Then the key is, we have to send the observer away, and send him away as soon as possible... Only by letting him return to his own timeline as soon as possible, and reducing his observations of us, can we have enough preparation time to deceive the observations. Or, changing our future in the box while barely changing the observer’s future.”

In this process, the more he knows about us, the less room we have to operate. Of course... in turn we must use him. The more we know through him, the higher our winning rate will be.

Wu Mengke asked seriously.

Then the question is, how can we send him away safely?

Wu Xinghuan said in an uncertain tone.

If our conjecture is correct, as long as we let him return to the research ship and lie back in the sleep cabin... then we close the door and leave the area, it should be fine. The next time he wakes up, he should be fine Back to my own timeline.”

After a pause, he looked at Captain Zhao.

The point of disagreement is here. What we brought into the hyperspace channel should be something else, such as the landing craft sent by Gemini? Didn't you say that they sent a landing craft to take over our starship? That landing craft He should have set off.

Zhao Tianhe nodded thoughtfully.

I see... close the overturned box and reopen it, and we will return to each other's timeline.

Wu Xinghuan snapped his fingers.

That's right.

After hearing what he said, Zhao Tianhe and Wu Mengke's expressions softened a bit, as if they were relieved, and their moods were not as heavy as before.

Especially the latter.

She pressed her index finger between her eyebrows and said with a wry smile.

Although it is a little difficult to understand, the situation does not seem to be as pessimistic as we imagined.

Zhao Tianhe also nodded.

Instead we get hints about the future from future observers...

But at this moment, Luo Yi, who had been silent, raised his hand.

Seeing three pairs of eyes looking at him, he hesitated for a moment and then spoke slowly.

I actually don't quite understand...but I probably understand a little bit. In other words, if we want to survive, we must become the 'celestial beings' that the child calls us?

The air in front of the bar became quiet.

Faced with this question, the three of them fell silent.

Become a celestial being…

In other words, we are going to destroy the world 200 years from now.

But not long ago, they sank the Gemini in order to prevent the destruction of the world.

If they were going to do the same thing as the Gemini, why bother to sink the latter and wait 200 years to do it again?

Zhao Tianhe couldn't answer this question, so he could only put it aside for the time being, and spoke after a moment of silence.

Things two hundred years later are too far away. I still prefer to think that we are in different parallel worlds from them, and our destinies may not be completely connected.

After a pause, he made a decision.

Let's verify Dr. Wu's conclusion first and ask about the situation of the Celestial Being Organization.

Then, send that kid home.

…

I don't know if it's because people in the Prosperous Era live in a pampered environment, but Ye Shi always feels that these guys are a little too crazy.

A guy who drove a civilian spaceship into a military base and almost injured an active soldier while wearing a combat prosthetic body didn't have to squat in a small dark room. He could still swagger around on the spaceship.

In fact, it's not right to run around. There are places he can't go.

Such as other decks and the scene of the collision.

In contrast, except for these places where he could not go, he could walk around at will in various areas of the lower deck with almost no one following him.

In addition to the protection of personal freedom, his other basic rights are also protected to the maximum extent, almost the same as the crew members living on this starship.

Before figuring out his true identity and background, they first recognized his identity as a human being and treated him as one.

The management department on this starship also took into account the uniqueness of his situation and arranged a separate one-room dormitory for him, and even gave him a bill-based meal card.

In the case of the person who issued him the meal card, if he really came back from the future, this debt would probably be eaten up by inflation in the distant future, which means he would not have to pay it back.

If he didn't come from the future, they would give him a bill after disembarking, and he could pay it back slowly after finding a job back on Earth.

Although academic qualifications are an issue, there should be many research institutes interested in him.

Every time he thought of the staff member who always thought about himself, Ye Shi, who was holding the meal card, couldn't help but feel emotional.

This is not called a conservative.

It’s simply better than Ideal City!

He even couldn't help but wonder how radical the rebels in the colony had to be in order to turn these good old people in his eyes into conservatives.

On the other hand, the attitude of the crew on this ship towards him was also quite interesting.

Some people thought he was talking nonsense, and some people believed what he said, but whether they believed it or not, they all showed great enthusiasm for him, and they all wanted him to say more about the future.

Bar on the lower deck.

There was a circle of people around Ye Shi who was sitting in front of the bar. Both the number of people and the noisy environment here were incomparable to the elegant bar on the middle deck.

Listening to the time traveler who claimed to be from the future talking about what will happen in the future, the crew members surrounding him all opened their eyes wide, with disbelief written on their faces.

Yunjian Province has actually become the most prosperous region?! Just that old industrial area?! This... is really unbelievable!

While drinking the wine invited by others, Ye Shi said casually.

After all, the Zhiyuan landed there, and they were cheating on it from the beginning, so I can get on board.

A woman with large breasts crossed her arms and shook her head.

The Weirant people... It seems that the War and Construction Committee is not a good thing. They even moved out slavery.

Ye Shi replied.

You have to look at the problem in the context of the times...Forget it, I don't know them and I'm too lazy to clean up their ground.

There was also a young man who was stunned for a long time, then suddenly came to his senses and shouted.

Wait, I was just about to ask...you mean there are people living in Borneo again?! So where did the animals go?

Ye Shi shrugged his shoulders.

Who knows, people can't live anymore and still care about them. But thanks to your colleague, a guy named Rowell, he is a real environmental protector. Thanks to him, it is still a zoo, and it is no different from before.

Very good.

The young man was obviously relieved, but Ye Shi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

What the hell is so good about this!

In a sense, he has become a celebrity in this town of three thousand people.

Ye Shi actually enjoyed their pursuit, and he knew all their problems. He chatted from the east to the west of the Central Continent, and even talked about the Antarctic, the North Pole, and the New World, which he had never been to.

Other players have been there, but they didn't cause any big waves.

Those experiences have been written into travel note-style guides and updated on the official website forum.

If he successfully survives this crisis, he will probably write about his experience on the forum.

He once sat in the bar of the Starship in the United Nations era 200 years ago, chatting with a group of ancient people.

But what to say?

His mentality was probably like chatting with a dead person to relieve his boredom. He gave some advice while getting some information. Other than that, there was nothing else, and he didn't pay much attention to the situation of these people.

After all, from his point of view, aren't these people who lived more than 200 years ago just dead people?

Even if there is no accident, he will die of old age!

The so-called alliance... is an alliance where survivors unite. In fact, there is nothing mysterious at first. We are not as great as you think. We are not doing anything with the idea of ​​saving the world, we just don't want to be eaten by predators.

The girl with big breasts blinked curiously.

Eat it?

The young man with an abnormal mind also said in an uncertain tone.

Is it the kind of eating that I understand? Or... annexation of territory in a broad sense?

Ye Shi chuckled.

Annexed? Do you mean swallowed into the stomach?

After hearing his words, there was a sound of exclamation all around, and many people had surprised expressions on their faces.

Some guys with poor mental endurance even turned pale, making people wonder how such cowards got into the army.

The predators also eat people...

These guys...haven't they ever thought that they are also human beings?

Listening to the idiot question, Ye Shi replied casually.

If you expect the predators to understand this, you might as well expect the slime mold to treat you as a human... Well, but then again, we really encountered that kind of slime mold. In the end, the mimicry has completely changed into our shape, and it is even more human-like. Like a human being.”

The surrounding crew members looked at each other, and a tall man shook his head and said.

I still can't believe that our children... people in the future will be so savage.

Ye Shi took a sip of the cocktail and said with a sigh.

People... this concept is too broad. People are different from each other, and the definition of people also changes with the times. So I say that the alliance is not really great, it is just relatively normal. You may be more suitable for Ideal City Life in Ideal City, but there are also many people from Ideal City who joined us because they couldn’t stand Ideal City.”

The big-breasted sister whistled and joked.

So you win.

Ye Shi shook his head.

I dare not take it seriously, but we did survive the current crisis. It is the result of the compromise between several forces.

Humanity and Gaia can no longer fight.

The same goes for the survivors and the Valantians.

The same goes for the interior of Survivor.

These three contradictions exist in a progressive order and together form the main line of the Wasteland Era.

And when they are all solved, the Wasteland Era will naturally end.

Ye Shi always has a feeling that he is actually redundant. The history he has personally promoted may be far less than that of Elder Brother Fang, and the combined role they play is actually more similar to a catalyst than the fuel itself.

But after thinking about it, this is actually normal.

Everyone plays a different role in the tide of the times. Some people will always bear a little more responsibility, and some people will bear a little less, but there is no such thing as saying that someone is dispensable.

Fang Chang alone couldn't sing this scene, including the manager who was regarded as a god by countless wastelanders.

Together with the survivors in the wasteland, they completed this epic poem that can be sung by future generations.

Honor belongs to every survivor.

Just when everyone wanted to ask something, Luo Yi walked in through the crowd.

Sorry guys, I have to borrow your star for a while.

A tall man looked at him and whistled.

Haven't you fought enough?

Luo Yi shrugged and said.

Our misunderstanding has been resolved a long time ago, but there are some things that we need to talk to him about, which are very important to him.

The man put his hand on Ye Shi's shoulder, patted it, and said with a grin.

If this guy is in trouble, just tell me.

Ye Shi didn't know the name of this fan, but he still said thank you to him, then jumped off the bar stool, followed Luo Yi out of the crowd, and went to the room at the other end of the corridor. .

After closing the door, he looked at Ye Shi and said.

I've got good news, we've found a way to help you get home.

I always feel that this copy is not that simple.

However, in order to advance the plot, Ye Shi, who folded his arms and leaned against the table, still followed his words.

Tell me about it.

Luo Yi repeated the method that Dr. Wu came up with, and the young man sitting at the table showed a subtle expression as expected after listening.

Guessing what he was thinking, Luo Yi coughed slightly and said.

I know you're trying to say it sounds stupid.

Ye Shi shrugged his shoulders and said.

You have already said it for me...but I still plan to give it a try with you. Anyway, it has nothing to lose to me.

Unexpectedly, he was so cooperative. Luo Yi glanced at this guy in surprise, paused and continued.

I'm glad you can cooperate. Besides... we want to cooperate with you.

Ye Shi raised his eyebrows.

What cooperation?

Luo Yi revealed everything he had previously discussed with the captain and executive officer.

Scientists from our fifth department believe that there must be a reason why you came to our timeline. That Celestial Being organization may be an important clue. Therefore, I want you to share all the information you know about the Celestial Being organization. Maybe tell us.”

After a pause, he continued.

This is very important. Maybe we can help you and face that... heavenly being together.

Ye Shi stared at him suspiciously, always feeling that this guy didn't tell him everything, and there might be secrets he didn't know about behind it.

But that doesn't matter right now.

The important thing is that he doesn't think these people have any way to reverse their destined fate.

You are dead, I should make that clear enough, unless you can change what has happened.

Luo Yi didn't defend himself, just stared into his eyes and said.

Have you ever heard of the Gemini?

Ye Shi frowned.

……what is that?

Luo Yi said patiently.

That's another cruiser. Its design drawings are the same as ours. We even completed it on the same production line.

Wait... my mind is a little confused, Ye Shi raised his hand to stop him and looked at him in surprise, You mean... there is also an Orion?!

Luo Yi said seriously.

To be precise, you thought you were landing on the Orion, but it was actually the Gemini.

Ye Shi interrupted him without hesitation.

This is impossible. I saw with my own eyes the name of the Orion written on the hull of their ship.

Luo Yi continued.

A few lines of paint printed on the hull mean nothing. They can pretend to be us and do the dirty work we don't want to do.

Ye Shi asked with a frown.

Dirty work that you're not willing to do?

Luo Yi didn't hide anything, nodded and said.

We rejected the Lagrange Point's order on the 'Final War', and I think... the heavenly being you are talking about should be related to the 'Final War' plan.

Ye Shi looked at him blankly.

What is the final battle...

He had never heard of the word.

But it's actually normal. Even if he comes from the future, it's impossible for him to know everything that happened in the past.

Looking at Ye Shi, who knew nothing about it, Luo Yi felt relieved.

Maybe the drunkard's plan would actually succeed.

There is room for manipulation of history beyond the horizon, and the space left for them seems to be quite large.

The command at Lagrange Point did have a plan to conduct a thorough cleansing of the surface. In their view, this would help the shelter to quickly complete post-war reconstruction...but we rejected them and launched the centerpiece to the Gemini. Torpedo.

So others don't believe that you come from the future, but we do... and according to you, this war did not end and continued until two hundred years later.

Walking up to the stunned Ye Shi, Luo Yi put his hand on his shoulder and continued in a serious tone.

This is our war and we will not leave you alone, we will move forward on our timeline while you return to yours.

We will meet in 200 years.

For this I need you to tell me, without reservation, everything you know about the Celestial Beings.

Looking at those firm eyes, Ye Shi finally swallowed the words on his lips and nodded slowly.

No matter how fanciful this plan sounds, no matter how slim the odds are—

Because of their determination, he also planned to take a gamble with them.

And what if it succeeds?

Not to mention Jiang Xuezhou being saved, the alliance will also get an extremely powerful helper!

I promise you.

This part is actually written about the morphological field mentioned a long time ago. Regarding how the players came to this world and the recycling of previous foreshadowings, the total sum of the inheritance and transfer should be less than 100,000 words, and there are still two or three chapters by visual inspection (see length).
