I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

The best way to face loneliness is to think.

When a person is trapped in eternal loneliness, the only way to help him maintain his humanity and not lose his sociality in loneliness is to not let his thinking stagnate.

Recalling the past, analyzing the present, and looking forward to the future are the only things that lonely people must do.

Chen Feng didn't understand this before.

Even when he was the most withdrawn teenager, he never really tasted the loneliness of being completely isolated.

There are always people around him, even strangers and enemies, they are still people and they will interact with him.

He may not really understand it now.

He did not summarize these principles, but his behavior conformed to this law quietly.

He just perseveres through constant self-reminding, self-motivation and self-encouragement.

For a long-established ambition, to live up to the ability to travel through time and space given by fate, not to want to see the doomsday again, and unable to give up the desire to see his kind break away from the doomsday and get a future, he persisted until now.

This is a very extreme situation that usually only exists in fantasy, like Robinson Crusoe in Robinson Crusoe.

But Robinson keeps his hope because he can always think of his family on the other side of the sea, and Chen Feng keeps his sanity because he will naturally return to the 21st century after death.

One spans space and the other spans time. They seem similar but are actually completely different.

Chen Feng's feeling was that even though he knew that day would come sooner or later, he still had a sense of illusion and unreality.

During the past six months, this kind of mood quietly emerged from the bottom of his heart, spreading bit by bit, permeating his heart like a silent spring rain that moistens everything.

Chen Feng has tried his best to resist and not let himself be idle. Even if he is busy all day long and tries to stay awake as much as possible, he will inevitably be affected to some extent.

Now, the appearance of the song "Happiness to the Nth Power" instantly solves Chen Feng's sense of unreality, connects him now with Zhong Lei who was on this planet thousands of years ago, and creates a new fulcrum for him.

Chen Feng sat on a chair, holding his chin in his hands and raising his head at a 45-degree angle.

His eyes were wide open and confused, and there seemed to be little spots of light dancing in his eyes.

After about ten minutes passed like this, he came back to his senses and his eyes slowly focused.

Countless clues in his mind had quietly gathered together like twine, condensing into a complete plan and turning into a rope that was enough for him to climb the cliff.

Then Chen Feng quickly stood up and went straight to the cab. He first turned on the gravitational wave scanner on Morrowind 1 and narrowed the scanning range to within 300 meters, which just covered the entire body of the giant whale.

The purpose of narrowing the scanning range is to improve accuracy.

Holding the mouse in his hand, Chen Feng dragged the image on the LED monitor and positioned it again on the giant whale carcass that was generated like a 3D model.

After discovering the square box inside, Chen Feng started digging excitedly without looking elsewhere.

If he hadn't returned to a meditative state and started to think carefully and comprehensively, he might have forgotten to continue to explore the secrets in the belly of the giant whale.

He kept scrolling the wheel, zooming in and out, just like an architectural design engineer looking at a CAD drawing.

After about ten minutes, he discovered something strange.

A lot of "garbage" accumulates in a folded area deep in the whale's intestines.

This garbage usually consists of the remains of sea animal bones digested by giant whales, mainly various large or small fish bones.

These bones will be slowly digested and become a source of calcium for the giant whales.

Chen Feng had noticed this pile of bones before, but didn't care much about it.

His focus at the time was on finding the antimatter biobattery components in the giant whale, but his attention was drawn to non-organic matter.

He had not narrowed the scanning range of the gravitational wave detector before. The monitoring accuracy was not enough to accurately display the shape of small and medium-sized fish bones. He could only distinguish two or three complete fish bones that were suspected to be sharks and large swordfish.

But now Chen Feng looked carefully and found some abnormal bones among the pile of fish bones.

Continue to zoom in and observe with the naked eye.

Chen Feng frowned, and he quickly figured out what it was.

A piece of human finger bone.

Searching one by one, he found more and more human skeletons.

Arm bones, ribs, leg bones... and a lot of skull fragments pressed underneath, the big ones were the size of a palm, and the small ones were only as big as a fingernail.

Ten minutes later, he used a robotic arm to carefully dig out all the bones.

An hour later, Chen Feng glued the skull fragments together like a treasure map.

It was an unexpected surprise. I thought it would be incomplete, but the final product turned out to be very complete.

Half an hour later, Chen Feng completed the facial simulation reconstruction using a program he wrote.

Looking at the photos on the display screen, Chen Feng sighed.

Somewhat unexpected, but also reasonable.

The owner of this face is none other than Sergey.

According to the automatically recognized bone age, Sergey was only in his twenties when he died.

So Sergey died after all, and died young?

If it were Chen Feng before, his mentality would probably explode, but now he quickly adjusted, just sighed and continued to act.

He then used the robotic arm to quickly collect beach chairs, umbrellas, barbecue grills and other items on the shore, and immediately set off back to his base where he piled materials in the coastal city.

He slept first and got up early the next morning to start assembling the equipment.

In the evening, he built a half-life detector with a detection accuracy of thirty days, using the disassembled scanning probe on the quark instrument as the core.

The test results showed that the CD player was not very old, less than thirty years ago.

The age when Sergei's skeleton stopped showing signs of life was basically the same as the CD player, which was also less than thirty years old.

New questions arise.

It means that about thirty years ago, Sergei, who was less than twenty years old, was buried in the belly of a fish. Because of his unusually tough bones, he and the CD player were hidden in the belly of a giant whale for thirty years.

On the surface this seems reasonable, but in fact there are logical loopholes.

First of all, the time point when Sergei Ponomarenko was born in 2543 should not change.

In this timeline, the year 2543 must have been an era of chaos and war, but it was also a good time for Sergei to take advantage of the situation.

But 2543 is 477 years away from 3020, and 437 years away from 2990.

How could Sergey be under twenty years old in 2990?

So maybe I didn’t travel to 3020, but to about 2593?

But Chen Feng also measured the half-life of some other things and could clearly determine that he was in 3020.

The contradiction cannot be resolved.

Chen Feng continued to forcefully deduce.

There are two more possibilities.

First, Sergey, who was less than twenty years old, mastered the cryonics technology and woke up more than thirty years ago, and was then swallowed by a giant whale.

Second, Sergey obtained technology that could rejuvenate his youth, and he lived until his death thirty years ago.

But both of these may not be realistic.

Assuming that the possibility is established, then if Sergey is really dead and thirty years have passed, with the information transmission ability of ZS bacteria and the mutual contact between ZS bacteria carrier animals, the part about Sergey in the hostility directive It should have gradually dissipated, but it didn't.

Whenever Chen Feng wants to answer a question, he always gets more questions.

If it was him before, he must have given up thinking, but this time he decided to continue to think deeply.

Gradually, a third possibility emerged from the depths of his mind.

Sergei cloned himself and established a secret base. For five hundred years, he has been cloning himself using an automatically set default program.

The owner of the corpse was not Sergei, but his clone.

After every Sergei clone dies, a new Sergei appears every once in a while.

So, the animals have been hunting him.

When this judgment appeared, Chen Feng hesitated for less than ten seconds before deciding that this seemed only possible, but it was an inevitable conclusion.

So, a new emphasis emerges.

Where is Sergei's secret base?

How many things are still kept in his secret base?

The quantum storm in Chen Feng's mind broke out again, and a massive amount of information poured out like a fountain.

Although the giant whale he killed was a mutant, it should have been a blue whale before the mutation.

In the 21st century, what is the distribution of blue whales on the earth and what are the activity patterns of large blue whales?

Sergey's personal character and tendencies revealed in his own life story.

If automated cloning is to be realized and such precise control can be maintained after more than four hundred years, then this technology must not only be attributed to Sergey, but to another older genius in the twenty-sixth century. Lai Wenming was probably also involved.

So taking into account the personality characteristics of these two people, the world environment at that time, and the life patterns of the blue whale, Chen Feng gradually came to a conclusion.

The location where the giant whale ate Sergey's clone did not occur on the Asian continent, but on another Australian continent!

Australia has always had the characteristics of a vast land and sparsely populated areas, and is far separated from other continents. It is an enclave.

Sergey is a mad scientist who often comes up with crazy ideas, and Lai Wenming is no better.

In the timeline where S bacteria first appeared, Australia was where Lai Wenming completed his self-sublimation and entered the stage of history.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there are some fateful ties between Lai Wenming and the Australian mainland.

So if the two men join forces to establish a base, they are likely to choose the enclave of Australia.

After making up his mind, Chen Feng took off decisively, crossed the Pacific Ocean, and headed straight for Australia.

Time flies, and he stayed in Australia for another month.

He spent the month hunting animals and gathering more information.

At the same time, he also continued to explore the scattered but still existing ruins of various cities and towns in Australia, as well as the remains of roads such as large railway tracks connecting settlements.

On the afternoon of June 1, 2020, Chen Feng input the reconstructed road network map, city distribution points, and the comprehensive distribution of mutant animals into the server, and then put them on the large monitor in front of him.

He sat upright on the spot, his eyes focused, and while scanning the picture with his naked eyes, he frantically stimulated his intuition in his mind to deduce.

Exactly four hours later, he slowly stood up, picked up a pen, and drew a small circle on the hand-drawn map of the Australian continent.

go ahead!

Head straight to Hammersley Ridge!
