Did the world end today?

Chapter 109 Escaping Time
Having resolved Jiang Xingye's problem, Lin Xu felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders.

At this point, all the factors that would have hindered his progress in terms of "soft conditions" have been completely eliminated, and all he needs to do now is to forge ahead.

First, we must catch the killer bees.

Whether in reality or 20 years from now in the world of fitness trackers!
After returning to his residence, Lin Xu did not rush to enter the bracelet.

It was still early, so I took a one-hour nap. When I opened my eyes again, the number on my wristband had returned to "3".

Now I can rest assured.

Lin Xu quickly organized the clues at hand and then formulated a plan for the next hour.

Immediately afterwards, he lay back on the bed and activated the bracelet without hesitation.

Consciousness was gradually drained away.

Then, it slowly fell.
"Shut up."

This time, Lin Xu was smarter.

Before his consciousness had fully settled, he spoke.

Sure enough, the skull's words were abruptly cut off before it could be finished.

Subsequently, Lin Xu followed the same procedure with ease.

This time, while maintaining speaking speed and clarity, he successfully established contact with the authorities in just 4 minutes and 30 seconds and began to launch a full mobilization.

While establishing contact, he had already skillfully, even leisurely, led the Skull-Headed mercenary squad through the entire Sky Dome Technology launch base and arrived at the launch pad.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xu quickly explained the situation to Bai Mo and gave instructions for further action.

"Listen carefully, everything I'm about to say is very important."

"We now have three things to do."

"First, I need to enter geosynchronous orbit. I need to enter that high-dimensional channel again to try to verify what I learned from Zhou Yue, the killer bee, about using the high-dimensional channel to avoid the apocalypse and waiting for the 'reincarnation' after the apocalypse."

"You need to give me a green light, don't shoot me with missiles!"

"Secondly, I need you to go to Beishan Reservoir immediately and capture Zhou Yue, the leader of the Planetary Reincarnation Organization."

"Note that we must coordinate with the military and use bunker buster bombs to incapacitate the enemy before launching further operations, to avoid the target committing suicide and dragging us all down with them."

"Third, I need you to accurately query the data of all high-dimensional experiencers after May 12, 2025, and find out when the high-dimensional channels appeared on Earth."

"The third point is my main objective for this trip, and I must accomplish it!"

"Oh, and by the way, send me the technical documents for the ultra-long-range manned spacecraft. I'll take a look when I have some free time!"

"clear."

Bai Mo's voice came from the bracelet, and at the same time, the security personnel at the space launch base had also received the message and stopped their attack on Lin Xu and the others.

"Come on, get on the boat!"

Lin Xu pulled the skull standing to the side.

At this moment, he had not yet recovered from the enormous shock that Lin Xu had brought him.

Even someone as seasoned as him couldn't immediately understand what Lin Xu was saying.

Entering geosynchronous orbit?

Was the military mobilized to use bunker buster bombs simply to arrest people?
Searching for higher-dimensional pathways?

He had only ever heard this series of keywords, which sounded almost like "crazy talk," from his wife.

The skull-faced man followed Lin Xu, still bewildered, and then, still confused, went into the cabin to change into his payload suit. Just a second before the spaceship was about to take off, he suddenly asked:
"Do I really have to go?"

Lin Xu was stunned for a moment.

"If you didn't want to go, why didn't you say so earlier?"

The skull was taken aback.

Damn it, do I even have a chance to speak?

Didn't you pull me all the way onto the boat?
From the moment the first shot was fired until now, the total time has not exceeded 8 minutes, and you are still constantly communicating with that important figure on the other end of the bracelet, whose identity you don't even know.

What the hell can I do?
Can I interrupt? Do I dare to interrupt?
Looking at the skull's expression, Lin Xu suddenly laughed.

"It's too late, you should go too."

After saying that, he decisively pressed the launch button.

The spaceship, with its one-button operation, couldn't be simpler. A powerful thrust came from behind, and the skull gritted its teeth.

"Forget it!"

"Just go!"

"I want to experience the same pain my wife went through!"

Hey!
Has pure love reached this level?
Lin Xu gripped the control lever and then said to Bai Mo:
"Expected to enter geosynchronous orbit in 1900 seconds!"

"Ready to transmit data at any time!"

"I have transmitted the specific coordinates of the high-dimensional channel to you. Navigate for me!"

"Received. Begin navigation after leaving low Earth orbit!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Mo quickly replied:

“我们已经对2025年5月12日后的所有高维通道数据，有据可查的、距离最近的一次是在2025年5月14日，位置在肃北北山地下实验室！”

"This project involves the Fourth Nuclear Power Research Institute, so the records are very clear. I'll send you the specific information right away!"

"The 14th?!"

Lin Xu's spirits lifted.

This is perfect!

Is he really that lucky?

No, this isn't luck; it's inevitable.

Because the emergence of high-dimensional channels has no randomness in terms of time.

He quickly reviewed the specific information Bai Mo had sent about this high-dimensional channel and then memorized it thoroughly.

He wasn't sure if the location would change due to randomness, but he had to try.

At this moment, the spaceship was still ascending rapidly. Lin Xu looked out the porthole, exhaled softly, and then said:

"I am about to enter near-Earth orbit and prepare to continue my ascent."

"Connect to navigation?"

"Navigation is now integrated; you can stop using it now."

Lin Xu breathed a slight sigh of relief upon receiving Bai Mo's reply.

He unbuckled his seatbelt, and his body floated up in the cabin.

The skull was also mimicking his movements, but he was clearly not very skilled.

Lin Xu casually pressed his decompression button, and after taking off the load cell suit, the skull looked completely bewildered.

He wanted to ask something, but Lin Xu had already gotten busy again.

"Zhou Yue has been caught and is being interrogated."

What questions do you need to ask? Are there any key questions?

Bai Mo's voice came from inside the cabin, and Lin Xu answered decisively:

"Have!"

"Focus on asking three key questions!"

"First, how to escape the apocalypse by traversing time through higher-dimensional channels."

"Secondly, how did he see the pollen, and how did he move along the pollen's trajectory?"

"Third, what exactly does 'pollen' manifest in? Is it a picture, a video, or a clear sound?"

"Time is limited, so I'll only ask these three questions this time!"

"clear."

Bai Mo gave a brief answer.

Meanwhile, under automatic navigation, the Sky Journey spaceship was steadily moving towards the coordinates Lin Xu had previously obtained.

With 46 minutes remaining on the countdown, the spaceship is only 34 minutes away from its designated coordinates.

Totally enough.

Lin Xu relaxed slightly, and during this waiting time, he didn't idle around. While reading the text summary of the interrogation being transmitted from Bai Mo to the spaceship, he frantically crammed more detailed and complete information from the technical documents into his mind. Time passed second by second, and the skull floating to the side seemed somewhat at a loss, wanting to talk to Lin Xu, but not knowing what to say.

So he could only remain silent, staring intently at the Earth below through the porthole.

"My wife, my wife, will she survive?"

"He won't survive."

Lin Xu answered casually:

"No one will survive this time. If you don't survive, I won't survive, and neither will your wife."

"But it's okay, I'll find a way to help you find a world where you can be together."

"Come on, give me a hand now."

"See that brake lever over there?"

"As soon as you see Mercury through the cockpit's front window, immediately pull the brake lever all the way down to activate reverse thrust and slow down, understand?"

"understand!"

The skull quickly answered, and at that moment, Bai Mo's interrogation revealed new key information.

"The answers to three questions are in!"

Bai Mo's voice rang out in the cabin.

"First, Zhou Yue doesn't know how to travel through time; he's still in the experimental process!"

"Second and third, Zhou Yue can't see the pollen, he can only sense it. According to his description, the pollen is an almost fixed anchor point in a higher-dimensional channel. It has no specific image, but manifests as a kind of image. He can't see the pollen itself, but he can see the process of the pollen interacting with the lower 'lower-dimensional world'."

"It's hard for me to describe his current state in detail because it's too chaotic. The above information is the result of refinement and speculation."

"clear."

Lin Xu nodded subconsciously.

You can't see the pollen, but you can feel and see the process of pollen interacting with the lower-dimensional world?

In other words, he could somehow see the results of Jiang Xingye's activities in the world as "pollen"?
This is a very reasonable explanation.

And obviously, the reason he was able to say the name "Jiang Xingye" was by deducing it from these processes.

Reasonable!

"One last question!"

"Ask him if he has seen Qin Feng, if he has seen anyone named Qin Feng!"

Lin Xu originally wanted to ask, "Have you seen Lin Xu before?" But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that if Lin Xu didn't know his true identity, revealing it rashly might cause trouble.

Then it's your choice, Qin Feng!

"Show him Qin Feng's photo, a photo from 20 years ago!"

Lin Xu continued.

"clear."

Bai Mo quickly relayed Lin Xu's order, which was promptly carried out.

A moment later, the results came.

No, Zhou Yue here has never met Qin Feng.

Lin Xu didn't know how credible this answer was, but given Zhou Yue's state of being completely controlled by hallucinogenic drugs, it was unlikely that he could lie.

Humans cannot fight against their physiological instincts, even if you have been to higher dimensions!

Otherwise, why would Bai Mo need to go through the trouble of training himself to relearn how to breathe?

This is clear evidence.

At this point, Lin Xu became more relaxed.

He knew that the "Zhou Yue problem" in his unique timeline had been completely resolved.

He was no longer a threat, but an opportunity.

If used properly, it can create even greater value!
Lin Xu looked up, intending to continue reading his document.

Just then, the skull in front suddenly shouted:

"I saw Mercury!!"

next second.

All sounds are silent.

Lin Xu once again entered the so-called "high-dimensional channel," but this time his experience was completely different from the last.

The colors were still chaotic, the sounds were still noisy and meaningless, and the images were still incomprehensible. But this time, Lin Xu vaguely noticed that there seemed to be a path in the chaotic void.
Veins or veins?
He wanted to fly towards that vein; he wanted to see if it really was the "pollen" Zhou Yue had mentioned.

However, he was unable to move.

He didn't know how to move himself within the higher-dimensional passage!
How did Zhou Yue manage to do that?
Perhaps this is one of the biggest secrets of planetary reincarnation.

Because they attract believers by "actively choosing within higher-dimensional channels"!

Lin Xu gave up struggling.

He closed his eyes, which did not actually exist, and quietly waited for the high-dimensional spaceship to immediately enter the high-dimensional portal.
-

But in that instant, a thought flashed through his mind.

across space.

Spanning time.

Zhou Yue has already been able to transcend space, but his ultimate goal is to transcend time.

So how does he believe that there is a achievable "sequential relationship" between these two?

How could he possibly believe that if he could transcend space, he could also transcend time?
Time and space are actually two completely different vectors; they have no overlap whatsoever.

and many more.

Lin Xu suddenly opened his eyes.

Does it not exist?

presence.

It exists under certain circumstances.

Event horizon of a black hole.

Within the event horizon of a black hole with infinite gravity, the passage of time would become incredibly slow.

However, if one can escape the event horizon, time will instantly begin to accelerate.

Lin Xu is currently unsure whether his location is actually close to the gravitational center of a black hole.

But what is certain is that the further away you are from that "center," the faster time passes.

Is it possible to take advantage of this characteristic?

Is it possible that Zhou Yue wanted to use this characteristic and his ability to "jump through high-dimensional space" to "cross time"?
Lin Xu's eyes suddenly lit up.

He finally understood what the Planetary Reincarnation Organization was trying to do.

Although he still didn't know exactly what to do.

But at least we can try different methods!

At this moment, the spaceship had left the high-dimensional channel, and Lin Xu returned to the spaceship's cockpit.

Without hesitation, he pushed the control stick down, accelerating the spaceship to its maximum speed.

The exhaust plume and powerful acceleration nearly pushed Lin Xu and Skull Head to the bottom of the cabin.

Lin Xu struggled to climb back into the driver's seat, and at the same time, the skull had also climbed back.

He gazed at the rapidly passing starry river and asked, his words muffled:

Where are we going?

Should we escape the solar system?

"No."

Lin Xu shook his head.

We must escape time!
