Chapter 367 Dimension Upgrade Plan. (Please subscribe! Please vote!)

Outside the abandoned school, more and more people are standing or sitting beside the roadbed that has been deserted for a long time and is overgrown with weeds.

This inaccessible area could maintain its original silence at first, but after waiting and waiting, no Chinese officials showed up, and the scene gradually became noisy.

"...The development of China in recent years is not optimistic! This Binhai City, which I visited many years ago, is truly an international first-tier metropolis. At that time, it had unimaginable prosperity, vitality and money. , its iconic buildings are widely circulated, and its name is associated with advancement, wealth, and openness... Now there are actually so many infected people and 'digital forests'..."

"Indeed! I heard that not long ago, a space-time tunnel appeared in Tongfu City in China..."

"I've heard about the space-time tunnel too! But this Binhai City is not experiencing problems with its development, but a 'digital' disaster has broken out. However, in less than five days, it has been fully controlled. China's current The strength is much stronger than it was more than ten years ago.”

"The 'digital rain' 40 years ago caused heavy losses to the most advanced countries in the world, and almost forced the world's technological level to the same level. Now 40 years have passed, and the whole world is studying 'digital' technology. New The world’s largest scientific and technological country, I don’t know if it is China or Xinghua Country?”

The "Ninth Step" compatible people from all over the world seemed to be chatting very casually. At this point, everyone looked at the three compatible people gathered together intentionally or unintentionally.

The three compatible people are mainly white people. In addition, there is a black person, and a brown person who has obvious Tianzhu blood in appearance, but whose clothes and behavior are exactly the same as those of white people.

Although they wore different clothes, they all had the flag of the Star Flower Country on their sleeves, obviously from the Star Flower Country.

Although after the "Digital Rain" broke out, countries on the earth either out of righteousness, or were forced to have no choice, or weighed the pros and cons... they all put aside their past grievances and united to deal with this disaster.

The previous bipolar confrontation situation was forcibly eliminated by artificial public opinion guidance, and was replaced by a call for joint struggle for the destiny of mankind.

But the competition and ideological differences of the past years cannot completely disappear in these 40 years.

Although these high-ranking compatibility people have no intention of destroying the overall situation, they still subconsciously compare the top powers.

At this moment, the leading white middle-aged man said calmly: "Of course it is our Star Flower Country. Star Flower Country's outer space immigration plan has been implemented for many years."

"The 'Ark' used for immigration has also been under construction."

"It's just that maybe we still lack some luck, so we haven't found a suitable planet for the time being."

Hearing this, a compatible person with a cloth shawl on his head and a white robe customized by the Blue Blood brand smiled and said: "China also has outer space navigation technology."

"Our country has also participated in China's technology."

"The Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps of China is specialized in this."

"In addition, China has the largest number of 'Ninth Step' compatible people in the world."

"One from the Ghost Team, one from the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps, one from the Deep Sea Patrol, the former No. 009, the 'Doctor Ash' of the 'Ash Order'..."

"The world has just been subject to signal interference, and the source of energy is also China... On the surface, there are already six of them."

"According to China's usual style of doing things, it must actually be more than that."

"But the number of 'Ninth Stairs' in your Star Flower Kingdom is not that large."

Hearing this, someone in the crowd nodded and said, "I also think that China's current technology should be stronger."

"The national researchers of the Star Flower Kingdom do have many top experts, but they are all of Chinese blood..."

These high-ranking compatibility people chatted very casually in their familiar mother tongue. They could understand each other without the need for translation.

The wind blows through the wilderness, slowly spreading the fragrance of the flowers and trees on the campus behind you.

While everyone was still chatting, they suddenly noticed from the corner of their eyes that the rusty school gate suddenly turned into pure numbers!

Those numbers were as small as ants, piled up to form the outline of the iron door, squirming slightly, and seemed to suddenly come to life.

The entrance to the vegetable market, which had been bustling with chatter just now, suddenly became quiet.

All high-ranking compatible people present were immediately alert and looked at the school gate.

The door made of numbers slowly opened under their gaze, and six figures of different heights, short, fat, and thin walked out of it!
They appeared very suddenly. Through the gap in the outline of the iron gate, you could clearly see the situation in the school, but you could not see the figures of those who had not yet walked out.

In this case, it seems that they did not come out of the school, but directly switched to the dimension of the school gate and came out.

Among these six figures, the first three are familiar to the slightly older high-ranking compatible people outside the school gate. They are No. 001 of the Ghost Team, the leader of the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Group, and the general team of the Deep Sea Patrol.

Number 001 and three other people are China's public "Ninth Ladder" compatibility, and have participated in many international conferences and international rescues.

The older and high-ranking compatibility people from various countries present are considered old acquaintances. Even if those young and high-ranking compatibility people don't know No. 001 and others, they have seen relevant information and photos before setting off, so they will not admit their mistake.

At this moment, many people in the crowd nodded slightly and smiled at the three people.

But soon, the smile that had not fully unfolded suddenly stiffened, and everyone saw the fourth figure walking out of the school gate.

It seemed to be a young Chinese man. The reason why he looked like that was because his whole body was made up of countless tiny numbers.

This scene was extremely terrifying. If it weren’t for the fact that behind this figure, there were two strange old people, one wearing a Tang suit and the other wearing an ordinary round-neck T-shirt. Judging from their appearance and temperament, they were also official members of the Chinese country. If they were present, High-ranking compatibility players in various countries are already ready to take action.

Bang!
The moment the six people walked out of the school gate, the digital door instantly returned to its rusty appearance and slammed shut.

It's like it's never been opened.

As soon as he walked out of his "digital forest", Zhou Zhen immediately began to look around.

In the open space in front of the school, the original cement floor has been cracked by weeds, and grass blades are growing in the gaps, spreading to the road not far away.

At this moment, more than forty high-ranking compatible people from all over the world gathered here in twos and threes, trampling the originally lush grass to the ground.

Each of these high-ranking compatibility people has a strong aura of energy. There are men and women, old and young. Now, their eyes are fixed on Zhou Zhen, with different expressions, mainly surprised and shocked. .

Zhou Zhen met their gazes and immediately understood in his heart that these "Ninth Ladder" compatibility members were sent by various countries to discuss the next task of negotiating with the civilization numbered 142857.

Just now, he and No. 001 waited for the five people, waiting for the four [Pioneers] for too long.

In order to join up with the "Ninth Ladder" compatible people from various countries as soon as possible, he borrowed the passage from the "Digital Forest" of the school and transferred directly with the five people No. 001.

Of course, considering that the four [Pioneers] might block him in his "Digital Forest", he would not take the risk if he was alone; but now, he has five No. 001 by his side. Following the "Ninth Step", security has improved a lot. It's time to check whether the "digital forest" of the school is safe now...

Thinking of this, the numbers on Zhou Zhen's body dispersed like an ebbing tide, revealing human flesh and blood.

At this time, a young man of Latin descent emerged from the crowd. He stared at Zhou Zhen and asked, "An official from China?"

No. 001 looked at the compatible people from various countries present in front of him, looked at the young high-ranking compatible person in front of him, nodded, and introduced himself: "I am No. 001 from the Chinese Ghost Group. I invite you all to come here this time..."

Before he finished speaking, the young man with Latin blood had already stretched out his arm, pointed directly at Zhou Zhen, and asked in an extremely shocked tone: "Your country, China, has mastered the technology of 'Digital Rain'?!"

This young man of Latin descent spoke a local dialect with a very thick accent, but all the people present were from the "Ninth Step" and had undergone language [memory transplantation], so there was no hearing impairment.

The words of the young Latin man were like an alarm trigger. High-ranking compatible people from other countries immediately reacted. An older white woman quickly asked: "Mr. 001, this school should have been a digital forest before. 'Bar?"

"How is it possible to turn the 'Digital Forest' into a teleportation point?"

"This kind of technology is very important for the world where the 'digital virus' is becoming more and more serious!"

"Can you tell me something?"

"We don't have equivalent unique technology for the time being, but we can exchange resources!"

Before No. 001 could answer, another high-ranking compatibility person with foreign blood asked: "Has China mastered the technology to modify the underlying digital logic of the 'Digital Forest'?"

"As long as China is willing to share this technology, we, the Silver Fern Nation, are willing to join China!" Before he finished speaking, an elderly compatible person with brown skin and white teeth strode forward, took No. 001's hand, and held it firmly He shook it and said very earnestly: "001, we haven't seen each other for a long time! You are still as strong as before, as strong as an 18-year-old boy!"

"For the sake of old friends, tell me, China has specifically set its destination at this school this time. Is this 'Digital Forest' the laboratory used for exhibitions at this conference?"

"This is so shocking!"

“I can’t wait to visit it!”

"Tell me, what do you need?"

"As long as we have it, I can directly agree on behalf of my country!"

Before he could continue, a compatible person who was obviously Asian also squeezed forward and said categorically in slightly accented Chinese: "Senior No. 001, China is indeed an ancient civilization with five thousand years of splendid culture! It is well-deserved as the world’s largest technological country!”

"My maternal grandmother is an authentic Chinese. Although she has been living abroad for many years, we have always used Chinese to communicate within our family. Before my grandmother passed away, she always told me that I am Chinese, and this will never change... "

"I can also sing the national anthem..."

"Actually, I came here just to apply for Chinese citizenship..."

"Please allow the wanderers who have been away from home for a long time to recognize their ancestors and return to their clan..."

In an instant, compatible people on the "Ninth Step" on the scene swarmed up, seeking friendship; those who applied for resources; those who asked for fallen leaves to return to their roots and sang the national anthem directly on the spot; those who had nothing to do with it strongly applied to become vassals... Seven There is a lot of talk and noisy, and all the questions revolve around "digital rain" and "digital forest".

Looking at this scene at the peak of the morning market, the five people in No. 001 looked calm, and they did not admit it in a very tacit understanding, but they did not deny it either.

It wasn't until everyone had asked the questions and calmed down a little that the leader of the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps took a step forward and said with a smile: "I am the leader of the Starry Sky Law Enforcement Corps of China. All of you older friends know me. I, my young friend, have become acquainted now.”

"Please be quiet and listen to what I have to say."

"I invite you all to come to China this time. I believe you all know the reason before setting off."

"According to our latest information, there are four [Pioneers] who have awakened on Earth from planet civilization No. 142857..."

He simply ignored the questions asked by various countries and went straight to the topic this time.

At the same time, No. 001 also sent an internal message to Zhou Zhen: "If you feel tired now, take a rest quickly."

"Everyone here is compatible with the 'Ninth Step' now. It's relatively safer than just now."

Hearing this, Zhou Zhen looked calm. He had indeed been chased by the four [Pioneers] for a while, but after absorbing the digital energy of "Doctor Ash", his energy intensity had increased to the "Ninth Step". I don't feel tired at all now.

However, the last part of the digital information given by the predecessor No. 009, the [Pioneer], has not been translated yet. Now that it is safe, I will translate it as soon as possible...

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen immediately replied in the internal channel: "Then I will find a place to rest."

No. 001 quickly replied: "There will be no results in the matter here soon."

"Rest next to you and don't leave our sight."

Zhou Zhen nodded slightly. Even if No. 001 didn't say anything, he wouldn't be able to leave everyone's sight now.

So, he walked a few steps to the side, lay down directly on a patch of weeds that had not been stepped on much, closed his eyes, and began to sleep.

※※※

The familiar classroom, incandescent lights illuminate the room.

Amid the loud lectures, Zhou Zhen raised his head and saw a math teacher wearing a yellowish white shirt and gray suit trousers standing in front of the blackboard, holding half a piece of chalk in his hand and lecturing loudly.

The other students around him were concentrating on the complex graphics and formulas on the blackboard, taking notes one after another.

Zhou Zhen looked around and found nothing unusual. He immediately took out his notebook and began to write down the untranslated digital information.

Time passed slowly, and the first class ended quickly. After the break, the second class began. A math teacher wearing a Chinese-style skirt walked in with brisk steps.

By the time of the third period, there was the math teacher wearing a military green T-shirt, training pants, and a Chinese character face...

The teachers who taught the first three classes corresponded to the first drop of "Digital Rain", the second drop of "Digital Rain" and the third drop of "Digital Rain" respectively. In the fourth class, as expected, the teacher who taught the class was "Ashes". The "digital rain" of "Doctor".

Jingle bell…jingle bell…

Accompanied by the familiar ringtone, all classes in the classroom are the same as before.

After five consecutive classes, Zhou Zhen's notebook was filled with the remaining digital information.

As the last number fell on the notebook, Zhou Zhen raised his head and looked at the podium. This was the sixth period. The teacher who was teaching on the podium was the second drop of "number rain".

He did not hesitate, and immediately raised his arms like the previous translators and said loudly: "Teacher, there is a question that I don't know how to do!"

The second drop of "digital rain" immediately stopped the lecture and looked at Zhou Zhen: "Which question?"

As she spoke, she walked off the podium and walked towards Zhou Zhen's seat.

Seeing the second drop of "digital rain" coming, Zhou Zhen immediately handed over his notebook.

He doesn't need the second drop of "digital rain" to really help him explain the topic. As long as the other party comes into contact with his notebook, the digital information on it will be directly translated into text that he can understand.

Just like before, the second drop of "digital rain" took Zhou Zhen's notebook, glanced at it, and returned it: "This is not a question, just a piece of information."

Zhou Zhen took the notebook back and saw that the complex digital information on the notebook had been automatically translated into familiar earth characters. He immediately replied: "Thank you, teacher!"

As he said that, he couldn't wait to start checking the translated information.

"In the year 5936 of the Fourth Civilization Calendar, an unknown dumb bomb drifted into the Milky Way."

"In the year 5974 of the Fourth Civilization Calendar, Planet Civilization No. 142857 successfully salvaged the dumb bomb in Centauri."

"In the year 5978 of the Fourth Civilization Era, the dismantling of the dumb bomb failed. Unknown radiation leaked from the inside of the dumb bomb. Half of the researchers were infected..."

"In the year 5982 of the Fourth Civilization Calendar, research has found that dumb bombs are mathematical weapons. Based on radiation data calculations, there is a high probability that they are defective products abandoned by the high-dimensional world..."

"In the 5987th year of the Fourth Civilization Calendar, the [Dimension Upgrade Plan] was launched, and the first batch of [Pioneers] began to be deployed..."

Seeing this, Zhou Zhen took a deep breath. This part of the information is about the origin of the "digital virus"!

The civilization of planet number 142857 is not the creator of "digital viruses", but the discoverer of "digital viruses"!
In addition, based on this part of the information, it can be judged that the most original "digital virus" was not perfect and not very infective. When the disassembly failed and resulted in leakage, it only infected half of the researchers and had no impact at all on No. 142857. Follow-up research on planetary civilization.

The "digital virus" on the earth now should be the product of planet civilization No. 142857, which has been updated and iterated many times!
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhen was about to continue watching when he suddenly felt that the surroundings seemed too quiet.

He immediately turned his head and saw that the classroom was quiet. All the students were still sitting in their respective seats. The second drop of "digital rain" that had just translated the digital information for him showed no intention of returning to the blackboard to continue the lecture. Still standing quietly by his desk, looking straight at him with dark eyes.

Zhou Zhen suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked at this "Digital Rain" who looked exactly like Tao Nange and asked tentatively: "Teacher, what's wrong?"

The second drop of "digital rain" suddenly showed a familiar smile. In the bright and clean classroom, the light instantly dimmed. The figures of the students around them began to disappear quickly one by one, as if they had been erased by special effects.

In just an instant, the classroom seemed empty, leaving only Zhou Zhen and the second drop of "digital rain" sitting and standing.

The second drop of "Digital Rain" leaned down, and her fragrant hair fell like water. She approached Zhou Zhen, put a slender white arm on Zhou Zhen's shoulder, and brought her lips to his ear, like It was like two people who had a good relationship were whispering, and they said with a smile: "My name is not 'teacher', my code name is 4240576."
