When Dr. Ding Yi and more than twenty of the Earth's top human scientists stepped into the light gate, something extremely surprising happened to them:
They all discovered that just now, they had left the hall and conference room in the garden in an instant, and instead appeared in a huge square on a planet with blue sky and white clouds?
Moreover, with just one glance, Dr. Ding Yi and others were horrified to discover that they were definitely not on Earth, at least not their original Earth!
Because something is not right about the sky here. Not only is there a huge, weird and distorted scene in the sky, but the sun seems to be rising from the western sky, and its trajectory and position are somewhat suspicious?
Of course, those are not important!
What's important is that where you look at the surrounding buildings and the vehicles flying busy in the sky, all the circumstances have shown that they seem to have crossed the boundaries of time and space in an instant, stepping forward.
Like entering a future interstellar metropolis with extremely advanced technology?
No!
That is not as if, that is certainty, certainty and determination!
Because all of them, including Dr. Ding Yi, saw that in front of the square where they were, there was a towering huge building made of glass, and at the same time, there was also
Under the huge glass-like colorful dome, natural light and artificial lighting are cleverly integrated, which illuminates this huge palace square, making it feel like being in a colorful world in a dream.
And such a place, in the world known to Dr. Ding Yi and all of them, absolutely does not exist on their own earth!
It won't happen now, and it will definitely not happen in the next hundred years, because it simply can't be built!
Then, they also saw that the humanistic atmosphere here was extremely rich and complex. In addition to the majority of humans who looked exactly like them, there were also some humanoid or non-humanoid suspected scientists or scholars that they had never seen or heard of.
pedestrian.
Most of them were wearing uniforms with uniform designs and beautiful designs. Under the curious gazes of Ding Yi and others, they were chatting, pacing, or hurriedly walking and shuttling through this busy and orderly huge palace square.
Anyway!
The environmental design concept here, green ecology and high technology has almost achieved a perfect integration and balance. Vertical sky gardens and air purification facilities are dotted here. Intelligent navigation systems and robots guide and help pedestrians and certain automatic vehicles that transport materials.
The equipment makes traffic orderly, and allows maglev elevators and aerial rail cars to interweave into a network and connect various areas. It is so fast, efficient and extremely pleasing to the eye that they can't help but admire it sincerely as they look at it.
and envious.
Further away, Dr. Ding Yi and others even saw: In the aircraft parking area, various large and small interstellar spacecraft and control aircraft were quietly taking off or landing using anti-gravity and micro-power engines.
, many of their shapes are smooth and full of beauty. Each one seems to be the crystallization of technology and wisdom, demonstrating the level and strength of this world's technology, making them feel excited.
"Hello!"
And just when Dr. Ding Yi and others were looking at the people and things around them like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, especially focusing on staring at the intelligent robots, spaceships and other vehicles, and still couldn't see enough, finally,
A young, heroic and majestic female human whose clothes looked different from most of the people here and who looked very confident walked up to the crowd and introduced herself with a smile and asked:
"I'm Shepard, nice to meet you!"
"Excuse me!"
"Which one of you is Dr. Ding Yi?"
While the female human who called herself 'Shepard' was introducing and asking questions, Ding Yi and others also saw that next to the other person, there was another person in human form, wearing the same clothes, but with blue-purple skin.
, an alien with light tattoos on his face, eyebrows that look similar to humans, wavy scaly skin, but a weird hair style that looks a bit like octopus tentacles attached to his head?
Yes, everyone is very sure that such a person is not a human being, and is definitely an alien!
But fortunately, the alien who knew at first sight that he was not human did not speak directly to scare people. She (?) just stood behind Shepard and looked at them all with curiosity and a smile, which made Ding Yi
The doctor and others finally did not act too rude out of fear and curiosity.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
While being surprised, listening to the other party's language that was obviously that of the earth, and then hearing that the person asking about it was Dr. Ding Yi, all the scientists present who were a little at a loss coincidentally turned their attention to the same person.
He was constantly looking around at a man wearing glasses, looking a little slovenly, and looking a little 'younger' compared to the others.
"I……"
"I'm Ding Yi, nice to meet you!"
"Ms. Shepard..."
Dr. Ding Yi first looked behind him and found that the light door had disappeared. Then he walked out of the crowd, looked at Shepard and shook hands with him politely before asking:
"Excuse me……"
"here it is?"
"Where?"
To be honest, he still finds it a little hard to accept the outrageous thing that everyone was on another planet in the blink of an eye.
That was far beyond his imagination, and he had been thinking, if the people on earth could have this kind of space gate technology, how could they be bullied by the Trisolarans?
Presumably, the Earth has already sent heavy troops to kill the Trisolarans' planet and launch Wushuang, right?
"This is the earth, where else could it be?"
"Of course, it's another cosmic plane, or another earth in a parallel plane?"
"Didn't the head of state tell you?"
"She didn't come with you?"
While talking nonchalantly, Shepard immediately searched among Ding Yi and others, and soon, she discovered with some regret and loss: a certain kid who sneaked away without saying a word.
Guy, it seems like you are not in the crowd right now?
You know, these years, she has missed a certain bad little guy very much, and thought that she would definitely be able to see him this time. Therefore, after hearing about this incident, she hurriedly left the castle
The space station rushed back, and then lowered his status to act as a 'guide' for this cross-dimensional contact, just to see the little guy again.
But she didn't expect that the other party didn't seem to come with her. How could she be disappointed?
"The Führer?"
After hearing this, Ding Yi looked at his companions around him and found that all the scientists were just like him, with puzzled and confused faces, and then he looked at each other in confusion.
"Who is the Führer?"
"We don't know..."
Ding Yi said that they appeared here after entering the light gate and had not come into contact with the other party's head of state. He was very sure of this.
"ha!"
"The Führer is Anne!"
"Anne Hastur!"
"She is the head of our Star Alliance and the Citadel. Our galaxy has been incorporated into the star sector."
Now it was Shepard's turn to be confused, so she quickly asked:
"Didn't she ask you to come to us for help?"
You know, she hurried back after confirming that the Earth had received the order from Head Anne. However, these people in front of her said they didn't know. She couldn't help but feel a little confused, and looked at everyone present again with that weird expression.
Earth scientists from another dimension.
"!!"
"What?"
"She's the Führer?!"
"No way?"
"She is just a Wallfacer on our planet..."
Hearing this, Ding Yi and the scientists present were all shocked, and then they all started making noises excitedly and uneasily in addition to being frightened. Apparently, they did not expect that Anne had such an extraordinary status.
"Ahem——"
"Please don't get excited, please?"
Seeing this, Dr. Ding Yi had no choice but to come forward to appease everyone and signaled everyone not to do such embarrassing things in front of friends from other dimensions and aliens.
"Wallfacer?"
"What's that?"
Shepard obviously didn't know what the 'Wallfacer' was, but since now was not the time to ask those people, and since Annie had indeed not come, although she didn't know the specific reason, she was already feeling a little unhappy and lost, so she didn't plan to
I continued to chat with these earthlings from another universe in front of me.
"It seems like you really don't know, right?"
After saying that, after thinking about it, Shepard waved his hand and sighed:
"never mind!"
"So be it!"
"Come with me..."
Shepard's attitude is obviously different with and without Annie.
"I already know your purpose of coming. I will introduce you to the dean of this Academy of Sciences. If you need anything or want to learn, just go to him directly!"
"During this period, the accommodation, food, study and consumption of all of you on Earth will be borne by our Star Alliance!"
"Don't worry, please."
Therefore, after seeing that Annie still refused to come to this world and meet people, she had no choice but to sigh, then said something boring and motioned to Dr. Ding Yi and others to follow her.
"certainly!"
"You can also ask the Asari assistant next to me. Her name is Liara. She is currently serving as your full-time coordinator on Earth during this period. She is also a technical expert and engineer."
"Right!"
"You'd better not provoke her easily. In addition to her strong scientific and technical abilities, she is also very strong in supernatural powers and combat skills!"
"Even I am afraid of her!"
While asking everyone to follow her towards the huge building in front of her, Shepard thought for a while and began to introduce the Asari companion beside her to Dr. Ding Yi and others.
"oh--"
"But, Ms. Shepard, if we are not mistaken, this Ms. Liara seems to be an alien?"
"It seems like there are a lot of aliens here?"
While hurriedly gesturing for everyone to follow him, he stared at Liara again and again. Finally, after walking more than ten steps, Ding Yi couldn't help it anymore and asked anxiously and uneasily for the first time.
"yes!"
"Liara is from the Asari tribe, she is very powerful!"
"Much stronger than other aliens..."
With that said, Shepard thought for a while and then patiently introduced Ding Yi and others to the general profile of the Asari clan.
But in fact, that's nothing. Everyone in their universe knows that Asari originated from the planet Thessia, and are also considered to be one of the most powerful and respected intelligent life races in the galaxy.
They are the first race after the Protheans to master interstellar navigation technology, and they are also the first race to discover and live in the Citadel. Their technology is extremely advanced and powerful.
At the same time, Asari are still a single-sex race, very feminine in appearance and possessing female instincts.
Their unique physiological functions are reflected in their thousand-year lifespan and the ability to reproduce with any creature of any gender. This also gives them a conservative and cheerful attitude towards other races... Of course, their long life also makes them
Asari people have profound attainments in all aspects. They can learn technology, art, supernatural powers and even combat skills at the same time. It is not too difficult for them and it is easy for them to achieve super high achievements.
Anyway!
The Asari support compromise and cooperation rather than conflict. They play a vital and important role in the Citadel Council of the current universe and are like another core of galactic society besides humans.
And this time, the reason why the Star Alliance and the Citadel sent Liara, an Asari tribe, to serve as the leader of Ding Yi and other earthly scientists from another dimension must have some considerations.
of.
"besides……"
"In addition to the Asari, there are all Citadel races here on Earth, including Turians, Salarians, Asari, Krogan, Zetas, Wortaum, and Nemor.
, Vulcans and geth, etc."
"how?"
"Dr. Ding Yi, do you have any questions?"
While introducing, Shepard keenly sensed the anomaly of Dr. Ding Yi and others, so he stopped talking and asked with a smile.
"Nothing much..."
"It's just that I didn't expect that all the races in your universe can live in peace..."
“It’s so rare!”
"Don't want us..."
Ding Yi shook her head bitterly, not knowing what to say.
After all, is it possible for him to say: In their plane, the Earthlings are being threatened by the Trisolarans. The other side has sent sophons to lock up their technology, and also sent a fleet to prepare to destroy them humans, and then they have no choice but to
If you don't come here, are you going to learn the mass effect and go back and destroy the opponent in turn?
"??"
“What’s so weird about living in peace?”
Shepard was a little confused, so he couldn't help but ask:
"Everyone is fighting, but we have no choice but to choose peace, right?"
"Remember back then..."
"We in the Earth Star Alliance have fought against the Turians before!"
"I also know your situation, it will get better, don't worry..."
As he said that, Shepard shook his head in confusion.
She knew, it seemed, that the other Earth was being bullied by an alien called the Trisolarans, and the Trisolaran fleet was already on its way to Earth, and would arrive on Earth in a few hundred years.
So, the other party asked Anne for help, and Anne abandoned them to her own world?
Although she wanted to say that as long as Anne opened a portal for them, their Citadel fleet would be sure to defeat the Trisolaran civilization, but since the head of state did not open the door, she had to give up and planned to teach these poor people on earth.
'Mass Effect' or other technologies, so that they can go back and develop and fight a meaningless war with the so-called Trisolaran civilization for hundreds of years.
Yes, it is a meaningless war!
In Shepard's view, as long as these people don't leak the mass effect after they return, there will definitely not be any big problems in killing the so-called Trisolarans.
Anyway, judging from the fact that it would take hundreds of years to fly just a few light years away, she was not very optimistic about the Trisolaran civilization anyway.
"No……"
Smiling bitterly, although he did not want to admit the incompetence of the earth in his world and the earthling scientists like himself, Ding Yi thought about it and still had to tell the truth:
"The Trisolarans won't talk to us. They think we are bugs, and they just want to destroy us and seize our earth to serve as their colony."
"We talked about it, it's no use!"
"If there was peace, even if we were enslaved, we would not develop to this level!"
Sometimes, Ding Yi even thinks that if the Trisolarans had allowed the Earthlings to surrender and become a subordinate race of the other party, they would probably not be here today, and the Wall-Facing Plan and even the PDC would never appear.
But unfortunately, there are no what-ifs in this world... only facts, and the cruel fact is: the Trisolarans don't want to talk to them, the Trisolarans just want to destroy humans on earth, all humans!
"So pathetic?"
Shepard turned his head and glanced at Ding Yi and the other scientists in surprise, then thought about it, and finally didn't ask any more questions. He just smiled and waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry!"
"Isn't there still hundreds of years left?"
"The technology of the Trisolaran civilization shouldn't be very strong. It can't even travel at the speed of light. It definitely doesn't have a mass relay or a star gate. After you go back, develop it quickly. They won't be
Your opponent’s.”
"Director Anne has adjusted the flow of time between the two worlds. When you finish your studies and go back, only a few hours have passed in that world. There will be no problem."
"However, I suggest that you should focus on promoting peace."
"Based on the experience of our world, hostility is not eternal. After many contacts and understandings, and then both sides have sufficient equal strength, it is not impossible to live in peace?"
With that said, Shepard directly gave Dr. Na Dingyi a suggestion.
Of course, she was just making suggestions and had no intention of forcing the other party to make a decision.
After all, she didn’t know much. She just felt that since the Trisolaran civilization had come into contact with dimensional technology and created magical things like sophons, she felt that the other party still had merits and should not develop to the point where only one of the two parties could
The level of bullshit that survives.
"I have no idea……"
"I'm just a scientist. That kind of thing is something that only our officials from various countries on Earth and the PDC headquarters need to worry about."
Sighing and shaking his head, Ding Yi said that some things were not subject to his will and he could only work hard to do his part.
"Is that so?"
"Then it's up to you!"
"Anyway, the technology here in our Earth Star Alliance is open to all of you. As for how much your brains can remember, it depends on you."
"If you still have time then, maybe you can go to the Citadel and have a look?"
"Since it is Head of State Anne's wish, the various races in the Citadel will definitely not reject your request to study."
After saying that, with slumped shoulders, Shepard led everyone into a huge suspended elevator. Then as the elevator slowly lifted into the air and moved, she closed her mouth with some lack of interest.
Come to think of it!
The reason why she hurried back to Earth was simply because she thought she could see the little guy Annie. But now, since she couldn't see him, her interest and attention to these people would naturally decrease or even be greatly reduced.
In fact, she has begun to think that after she hands these people over to the dean of the Academy of Sciences, she will immediately turn around and leave the earth to go back to her castle to live happily?
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
But Dr. Ding Yi and a group of scientists from another earth who were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden did not know what Shepard was thinking. They just stared at everything far and near with wide eyes and exclaimed softly from time to time.
Discussing.
"Right!"
"Ms. Shepard, we found that the trajectory and orientation of the sun in this world are somewhat wrong..."
"Your earth seems to be spinning in the opposite direction?"
"And there's something strange about the sky?"
Before the floating elevator arrived, Dr. Ding Yi thought of the unusual sky he had noticed when he first arrived and what he was seeing now, and he asked with some confusion.
"It's definitely spinning in the opposite direction!"
"As for the abnormality, it should be due to mirroring..."
"For specific details, you should ask this Asari lady!"
With that said, Shepard directly threw the question to Liara next to him. After all, the other party was a technical expert, an engineer, and the assistant and person in charge of these people. Shepard obviously didn't know much about technical matters.
Well, if you say it wrong, it will be embarrassing.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Hearing this, everyone, including Dr. Ding Yi, looked at the Asari assistant next to Shepard who looked a bit human-like and even a bit sexy, but his overall appearance and skin color were still relatively weird.
, and wait patiently for the other party’s answer.
