Chapter 1425: You're already dead

If you continue to explore forward along this cave, it will be the Reinhardt.
Lu Zhou certainly did not allow Professor Leonard to know that there was a spaceship from the old universe, so he decisively rejected his offer to continue exploring the ruins.
The ruins had been penetrated by him for a long time. There was nothing more to explore except the deepest one, which was said to use a zero-point spacecraft engine.
These two things didn't make any sense to themselves until the ship was repaired.
Saying goodbye to General Reinhardt in the communication channel, Lu Zhou asked the bionic person sent by Xiao Ai to drag the three bodies to the center of the passage, which is a more prominent position.
The main reason for this is to prevent Professor Leonard from returning here again.
If you want to come with his courage, you probably won't dare to risk hiring an unknown excavation team to excavate this ruin for yourself. And if a regular excavation team is hired, the three unexplained corpses and the entry record he left at the customs office will be enough to send him to court and sit in prison.
Ignoring the painful expression on Professor Leonard's face, Lu Zhou continued to give orders to the bionic person, allowing him to remove the explosives from the rig and install them on the load-bearing column at the end of the mine.
In this way, it can be regarded as a complete ruin of his whim, and the idea of ​​digging the ruins privately ...
The trembling in anger, Professor Leonard pointed to the landing boat, exhausted his whole body of courage, and rebuked angrily.
"... You are destroying the artifacts."
"I'm a cultural relic. If you want to know anything, you can ask me ... Okay, everything is done, let's go."
Patting Professor Leonard's shoulder, Lu Zhou finally glanced at the passage behind him, and then walked out of the mine without looking back.
Until the ship can be repaired, it is best to leave it here temporarily.
When he's done with the things on the earth, in the end, he might drive it to a far, far place ...
Moving forward along the curved magnetic track, the two people walking inside the mine hole chatted one by one.
From the words of Professor Leonard, Lu Zhou learned that he is a general professor working in the Department of Archaeology, Oxford University.
Coincidentally, his father was a student of Professor Fernal who had a relationship with himself.
Today, Professor Fernall's doctrine has become an international system. Although his doctrine about Mars cockroaches is not accepted by mainstream views, it barely has a place.
Hearing here, Lu Zhou's heart also sighed, the time passed so fast ...
"What does the outside world look like now?"
"... What's it like?" Leonard froze for a few seconds before scratching his head. "If you mean phase, what it looks like in the early 21st century ... probably more A little bit more developed? And a little bit different from you in terms of concept? "
"Just that?"
"What else could that be."
"I thought you could say more in detail."
Professor Leonard Khan said: "How can this be more detailed, I haven't seen it in your time ... I want to know what has changed, you can go and see for yourself, and then compare it."
"That's what it said," Lu Zhou asked a little more specifically, and it was his most concerned question. "In the email of the guy named Jim, I seem to see an organization called the North Sea Alliance ... I want to ask, what exactly is that? "
"Oh, you say that ... in simple terms, you can understand it as a new type of state concept."
After spending more than ten minutes, Professor Leonard told Lu Zhou briefly about the changes in the international situation in this century.
It turned out that the political heritage called the "Human League" that he had left behind after he "dead" once united for some time. Out of alert to extraterrestrial civilizations, the Earth Defense Forces have even developed a rapid response force for high-orbit operations.
However, the good times didn't last long.
This political alliance, which was forced to gather together because of external pressure, ultimately only existed in the history of human civilization for 25 years.
In these twenty-five years, the human union has experienced a bumpy life from unity to doubt, and then from doubt to disintegration.
There are many explanations given by the academic circles on the reasons for the dissolution of the People's Federation. Including Mars scientific research at the time could not find more evidence of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, and Professor Aubrey's thesis proposed a new explanation for the cause of the collapse of Hell's Gate.
There is no evidence that extraterrestrial civilizations did exist and orchestrated the earthquake. In contrast, more and more evidence can be inferred that the discovery of extraterrestrial civilizations and their suspected hostile acts are just a false alarm ...
The loss of a common enemy, the rotation of leadership, and the differences caused by the interests and conflicts of various countries have finally brought this organization to the end of its life.
In fact, such an ending is almost inevitable.
Even if it is a famous political strongman in history, there is no way to control the affairs after the second term, not to mention that the formation of the People ’s Federation was not due to the diplomatic skills of a political strongman from the beginning, it was just because the countries of the earth have dealt with unknown forces. Fear.
However, although the People's Federation was eventually disbanded, it still had some positive effects.
That is to explore a new type of political and diplomatic relationship for countries around the world that is different from traditional borders.
That is, regional union!
According to Professor Leonard, due to a financial crisis that swept the world in 2050, the traditional monetary system was on the verge of collapse in the face of expanding debt.
In order to save the rapidly changing economy, Pan-Asian Cooperation, which was originally an economic cooperation organization, first made bold innovations and introduced a digital currency that is different from traditional currencies.
This currency is issued by the Pan-Asian Central Bank and its value is the sum of the credits of all members of the Pan-Asian Cooperation. Other countries have followed suit. Through debt consolidation, issuance of sub-era currencies, and a series of supporting economic policies, the global production relationship has finally entered a new stage.
And economic union is just the beginning.
Soon this cooperation was extended to cultural, military, and even political levels because of the experience and mutual trust that countries have accumulated during the People's Federation.
In the end, the traditional concept of boundary was downplayed and replaced by a new type of boundary based on the original concept of sovereignty.
"At present, the mainstream view in academia is that the decentralized concept of sovereignty proposed by Professor Angus Deaton in" Sociology of the Future "provides a theoretical basis for cross-regional political alliances. Professor Lu ... That is, the cross-regional power grid that you promoted, has laid down the material conditions for the establishment of the first cross-regional political alliance-that is, pan-Asian cooperation. "
"However, although this statement is the mainstream view, the voice of controversy still exists. Even if the territory of pan-Asian cooperation basically coincides with the territory of the early inter-regional grid, it is still necessary to determine whether there is an inevitable relationship between the two. More evidence. "
"The most in-depth research in this field happens to be the Angus School ... I am an archeologist. I only know about modern history. If you are interested, you should consult a professional."
I didn't expect that I had just mentioned it with Director Li casually. In the future many years later, it would have such a great effect, and Lu Zhou's heart could not help but sigh.
There is also Angus Deaton and his "Sociology of the Future". If Lu Zhou remembered correctly, he seemed to have had a fight with him because of something ...
Seeing that the landing boat seemed to be moving away, Professor Leonard frowned, questioning suspiciously.
"... Are you still listening?"
"Yes." After returning to God, Lu Zhou glanced at Professor Leonard next to him and said with a smile, "I just remembered an old friend ... a little bit missed. Speaking of which Angus ran away I came to China to find my theory, but I was scolded before I ran back to write this "Sociology of the Future". I didn't expect that 100 years later, his works were still selling so hot ... I don't know his Can future generations receive payment? "
Leonard: "..."
Lu Zhou coughed and continued: "That is to say, the current Chinese nation is called Pan-Asian Cooperation, and its territory is roughly equivalent to the entire East Asia and Southeast Asia? Then the North Sea Alliance, which is the alliance between Britain and the countries on the northern coast of the Baltic Sea?"
Leonard sighed: "Although you are wrong with the basic definition, it is not wrong to understand it that way."
"What about Mars? Listen to your tone ... it seems a little special here."
"The situation on Mars is very complicated. There are colonies managed by the Pan-Asian Cooperation, like Tiangong City, colonies managed by the Governor's Appointment System like New London, or New York, which is simply left to businesses as North America. Different systems have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the reason for all of this is that the distance from here to the earth is too far. "
"Even recently, it took two minutes for a beam of light to reach here from the earth. There is no real-time communication between the earth and the earth, and some historical issues have led to the system and justice here. , There are no small differences from the motherland on the earth. If the earth is a civilized world, then this is the barbaric and full of opportunities ... If I say so, you should understand. "
Lu Zhou nodded, although he felt that he knew only the tip of the iceberg, but compared to the foggy water when he woke up, it was a little better.
At this moment, Lu Zhou suddenly felt like he was kicking something, so he turned his eyes to his feet.
I saw a broken rifle lying there.
This stuff seemed quite familiar. After staring closely for a while, Lu Zhou quickly recognized it.
However, it was true that someone was one step faster than him and pronounced the name of the thing.
"QBZ-20 paratrooper rifle, the standard equipment of the world's first orbital airborne brigade!"
"Why is this kind of thing here? Didn't Hilder Mining find such an important cultural relic?"
With excitement flashing in his eyes, Professor Leonard was about to reach out to pick up the broken rifle, but was picked up by Lu Zhou first and held it in his hand.
"Hellfire Rifle ..."
Looking at this rifle, Lu Zhou's eyes couldn't help but miss it once.
"This is an important cultural relic," swallowed, and Professor Leonard whispered, "It's no use keeping it, you might as well keep it for professionals like me. I have my academic reputation guarantee, I will send him to the museum. "
"No, I am a cultural relic. I have the final say on how to handle the cultural relics. Besides, this is the relic of an old man of mine. Anyway, I will bring it back to his hometown."
I don't know if he survived the disaster ...
A hundred years have passed.
In his time, it should be a happy and stable life ...
Although he knew he didn't need to feel sorry for him, Lu Zhou's eyes could not help but a touch of sorrow.
However, Professor Leonard, who was standing next to him, could not appreciate his sorrow, but just wished to scold his mother in his heart.
Fack!
咋 If you encounter anything, I will be with you!
"... Okay, whatever you want," shrugged his shoulders, Professor Leonard sighed, "I just hope you don't sell it ... this kind of thing should be of great value, it's on the black market, don't Count on someone to take good care of it. The collectors I've met are mostly upstarts and laymen in this regard. "
Sell ​​it?
Lu Zhou smiled lightly without any explanation.
Money is just something outside of him. With the knowledge in his head, he never worried that he would be short of money.
Finally out of the long mine, the two of them, a bionic person, went straight to the Mars rover and unlocked the car lock.
Looking at the door of the car, he skillfully climbed into the land boat of the Mars rover, followed by Professor Leonard who got on the car, with a strange expression on his face.
"You don't seem surprised at all."
Lu Zhou gave him a strange look.
"What surprised?"
"... most of the old popsicles who woke up from sleep would be fussed for a while, and spend the most exciting 21 days in their lives, until they adjust to a new life, they will be frustrated with some real problems . "
Such as work.
Lu Zhou: "Are there any other dormants?"
"A lot ... In addition to the terminally ill patients, there are some who are dormant voluntarily. Most of them come from the middle of the 21st century. At that time, it seemed to be very turbulent for a while, and some people chose to dormant.
"is it."
"You haven't answered my question yet."
"There is nothing to answer. When I drove Mars, your father was still a cell. For me, most of the things you have seen I have seen in the laboratory, even if I have never seen it, I can imagine— — "
Looking at the empty operation interface on the Mars rover, Lu Zhou's head appeared a black line, and suddenly there was a feeling of being unable to start.
"Okay, not everything has been seen ... how does this thing open? Navigation? And the mailbox dial?"
Looking at Lu Zhou with a speechless expression, Professor Leonard gave a cough.
"... The button next to the steering wheel is a switch for the holographic control interface. If you have AR glasses, you can also enter the real-world navigation mode. Seriously, if you don't turn it on, let me do it."
"... you will talk before you leave."
Glancing at Professor Leonard silently, Lu Zhou gave up the driving seat.
Leonard, who took the steering wheel, skillfully started the car, but at this moment, he glanced at Lu Zhou's face with an unnatural expression through the car's endoscope.
It's like restraining some kind of pain.
"... aftereffects of freezing?"
The cold sensations continued to flow from behind, and a wave of pain deep into the bone marrow spread along the blood vessels.
Lu Zhou took a deep breath and waited until the pain had subsided a little before he said.
"what is that?"
"... a common condition on 'old popsicles', because the early freezing and dormant techniques were rough. I remember correctly, you seem to be directly injecting the dormant bacteria into the body?"
Lu Zhou: "... otherwise?"
Leonard glanced at Lu Zhou, "Probably in the middle of the 21st century, after we discovered the side effects from the first awake frozen man, we stopped doing this. I don't know much about the specific situation, but I heard it was directed to The dormant cabin is continuously infused with improved dormant bacteria extract. "
Lu Zhou frowned. "... Can this work?"
"Of course it can, and it's safer, the price is a little bit more expensive, but not too much," Professor Leonard sighed. "I suggest you go to a hospital on the planet for treatment, there is nothing right on Mars The dormancy mechanism of the Eight Classics ... Although this is not a very troublesome illness, if you drag it on, you may have to hurt twice a day like this. "
"Let's go back to the earth now ..." As soon as I heard that my aunt had to come twice a day, Lu Zhou suddenly didn't want to wait any longer, looked at the navigation map on the holographic interface and immediately asked, "How should I go back?"
"Although Tiangong is closer to here, I suggest we go a little further and board the ship from New London."
Lu Zhou asked with a frown.
"why?"
"Because you are a black household now," a helpless expression on his face continued, Professor Leonard continued. "Everyone thought you were dead. I wouldn't have seen you out of that coffin. Hesitated to think so. The words from New London ... are more 'friendly' to black households and stowaways. Basically, if you plug a little credit, it is not a big problem to hack through customs. "
Lu Zhou: "Many people should recognize my face. I can provide DNA tests when necessary."
"Please, this is the 22nd century, it's not your age," Professor Leonard holding the steering wheel sighed. "If you wish, you can even turn your features into a Pharaoh or Qin Shihuang, claiming that Egypt Or Terracotta Warriors are yours. DNA testing is a good method, but here is Mars, and even shouts have to be sent back to Earth's Mars every two minutes. Do you expect to be notarized here? Then let others accept Are you alive? Will you return the house that has been developed as a public tourist attraction? I advise you to save it. "
Lu Zhou opened his mouth, and for a while did not know what to say.
Someone had always been joking with him before, and the house was cleaned up a little bit, and then it will be historical relics. If you do n’t need to throw something, do n’t throw it for the time being, maybe you can sell an antique in the future.
This is just great.
What a special cultural relic ...
Where does Lao Tzu live on earth? !!
But at this moment, the bionic person sitting in the back seat suddenly forwarded a card intently and said intermittently in the communication channel.
"... new ~ EbookFREE.me ~ identity."
"... Master, please."
"... for now, go home."
Looking at the bionic man sitting in the back seat and the card in his hand, the expression on Lu Zhou's face gradually became strange.
He had thought it would not speak ...
Reaching for the card, Lu Zhou rolled it to the front and glanced.
It doesn't matter at all. When he saw the column of the name, he was caught off guard and was almost choked by his own saliva.
What the ghost is Lu Ming Ai? !!
