Chapter 87: The time travel is over, but the mutation is not over yet

As expected, regarding the inexplicable "Main God System", the Hades goddess Handi did not research anything useful, and could not even directly detect its existence. Apart from those things that Wang Qiu already knew, there was only You can feel the mutation of the "door" itself.

But such brief information has no practical significance. Since the two worlds were connected, a group of experts from relevant departments...maybe "Brick Masters" have studied this time and space gate standing in Victoria Bay countless times. But other than scanning out N three-dimensional models and making a superficial replica of the space-time gate, which was placed in the Window of the World theme park in Shenzhen, there was no further progress.

Therefore, after both sides truthfully stated their findings, the only conclusion drawn was that both sides seemed to be helpless against the "Lord God".

As a result, both Goddess Handi, Wang Qiu, Wang Meiling and others couldn't help but feel a little disappointed... So, in accordance with the redemption agreement reached with Goddess Handi, Wang Qiu ordered the release of Long who had been cut into a human stick. The female apostle Giselle then watched her lost limbs regain their original appearance in just two hours. Then, under the scolding of Goddess Handy, she spread her wings and flew away.

"...Thank you very much for sparing my apostle of the sub-god. The magic book and magic stone as a ransom will be sent within a month."

Looking at the dragon girl Giselle disappearing into the sky, Goddess Handy, who was possessed by the blue-haired magician Lelei, smiled and said, "...As for her severed limbs, you can do whatever you want. Okay. , I say goodbye, see you next time!”

The next moment, Goddess Handy, whose mission was completed, quietly broke away from the blue-haired magician Lelei and disappeared. As for the blue-haired girl magician Lelei, her physical strength was exhausted by this simple and crude divine act. She immediately collapsed to the ground softly and fainted...

Wang Qiu sighed, and according to the original plan, he escorted the two young dragons and the severed limbs, and took Loli Mercurial who was curious about the earth, and then traveled through the rabbit-eared girl. Under the watchful eyes of Dai Ya and Cai Rong, he returned to Hong Kong opposite the "door"...

As expected, the hands, feet and wings that were chopped off from the body of Giselle, the apostle of the Asian God, did not reveal anything special that could prove the difference between the Asian God and mortals. As for the two young dragons, they didn't cause any trouble - they had been given a large amount of sleeping pills before departure, and they had not yet woken up after being transported to the research institute. As for whether there will be any trouble next... this is not what Wang Qiu needs to worry about.

With the South China Sea crisis basically resolved and military controls gradually relaxed, Hong Kong's market has become more prosperous and lively. Although it is still not as good as before the South China Sea crisis broke out, and it cannot be compared with the heyday when Hong Kong was still the "Pearl of the Orient", it is better than the lifeless and stagnant appearance of Hong Kong during the military control period - at least the plummeting of real estate prices has stopped. There are also very few people who commit suicide by jumping into the sea every day.

Moreover, the long-term tense atmosphere of the armed confrontation between the Chinese and American fleets in the South China Sea a few days ago, with frequent gunfire and gunfire, as well as rumors that the Third World War is about to break out, have also brought a lot of trouble to developed countries around the world. It is difficult to say whether it is a good or bad side effect, that is, it greatly stimulates consumption - just like the fear of nuclear war and destruction caused the prevalence of hippie culture in the United States during the Cold War. The rumors of World War II and the psychological stimulation of military conflicts some time ago have also made many Hong Kong citizens give up on themselves and have the idea of ​​​​having a drink today and getting drunk tomorrow.

Therefore, they no longer continue to live frugally, but use their savings to enjoy entertainment, lest they wait until everyone dies without spending the money, which also accelerates the recovery of Hong Kong's economy to a certain extent: although, this is actually Overdrafting the future of this city...

Sitting on a wooden bench in the waterfront park, looking at the brightly lit night view of Victoria Bay at dusk, Wang Qiu felt sad for a while.

"...I heard that the domestic economic situation has been very bad recently, and there have been many big problems with employment and prices. Is that right?" He chatted with Political Commissar Guo sitting next to him while drinking beer. "...When I was working hard in another world, I seemed to have missed a lot of things!"

"...Yes! It was a turbulent and thrilling half a year. Compared with it, the missile incident between the United States, the Soviet Union and Cuba was nothing more than a child's play. Internationally, things were changing, and there were many alliances. Domestically, there were rumors and rumors. There were many surprises in one day. National evacuation drills were carried out one after another, from the south to the north. It’s the decline of all industries, well, coupled with the loss of morality and the chaos of demons, almost everything that breaks the lower limit has been exposed, and there are all kinds of unbelievable and bizarre theories... Until now, there are all kinds of parades, protests, and rallies. , or one after another..."

Political Commissar Guo reached out and started the lighter with a "pop", lit the cigarette in his mouth, took a deep breath, and then blew out a smoke ring, "...I now understand how the hippies came to be during the Cold War. ——I was simply frightened by nuclear war and nuclear winter!”

"...However, all these crises and trends have finally passed now, haven't they?" Wang Qiu said comfortingly.

"...Yeah, it has calmed down again for the time being, otherwise we wouldn't be able to sit here quietly and watch the night view."

Political Commissar Guo sighed, "...China has not fallen, and the US imperialism will not be finished. There will definitely not be another war within three to five years. As for what the world will be like in the future in three to five years, it is really Only God knows. It may be to escape the shackles of gravity and rush towards the sea of ​​stars, or it may be a world war that destroys civilization... Anyway, Wang Xiaoer is just celebrating the New Year, making do with it for another year... ”

At this point, he shook his head and did not continue to expand on this aspect, but changed the topic, "...By the way, the United Nations' first batch of alien expert research team is expected to arrive in Hong Kong next week to meet with our team. Researchers from other worlds are cooperating. Please pay attention to the security work in this area. Then, please pay attention. There is one thing I need to explain to you - in view of the unexpected sudden situation caused by the appearance of Handi, the goddess of the underworld, although a cooperation agreement has been reached, the central government's attitude is to suspend the operation of the main god system and extend the time and space. Door opening time to prevent unexpected events. ”

"...In other words, the central government actually can't trust Handy at all, and would rather delay the shutdown of the main god system? Well, but that's actually right to think so."

Wang Qiu nodded, "...However, we are actually unable to accurately grasp the extent of changes to the original plot and the progress of accumulating points. At most, it can only stop some big actions in the other world, but Butterfly The effect cannot be controlled at all...Is this possible? ”

"...That's about it, and the superiors won't force anyone to make things difficult. In short, there is no need to rush to shut down the main god system, and there is no need to rush to fish out the remaining two female time travellers. There is a broken main god system that can act as a containment , it’s better than leaving all the options to that goddess Handy..."

Political Commissar Guo blew out a smoke ring and smiled bitterly, "...Sometimes that goddess seems to be very stable and rational, but sometimes she acts very frivolous and very detached. Although we have reached an agreement with us now, but in case If she has a convulsion out of nowhere, it will be a disaster for us here..."

However, neither of the two people in the chat could immediately notice that at this time, a shining fire was crossing at the end of the distant night sky...

Whether it was a trick of fate or a prank of the main god system, in short, a huge alien spacecraft suddenly appeared in the earth's orbit without any warning, and without any deceleration, it plunged directly into the earth's atmosphere—— Although the alien spacecraft's high technology was able to withstand the huge heat generated by the friction between the outer armor and the atmosphere, the surface of the hull still burned red instantly, emitting a blazing light.

As a result, all countries around the world that have the ability to monitor space orbits with radar discovered this alien spacecraft immediately. There are also many countries and private individuals who do not have the above capabilities and have also observed obvious trajectories with telescopes. It immediately caused an uproar in the global media.

Then, before the supercomputers of astronomical departments in various countries could calculate the trajectory and location of the crash of the spacecraft, the alien spacecraft that appeared instantly had already cut through the twilight sky and crashed into the Lingding Ocean outside the Pearl River Estuary. Hong Kong, Strong shocks were felt in the urban areas of Macau and Shenzhen. The huge shock waves and sonic booms instantly shattered countless glass windows, causing more than 20 ships to capsize, causing at least three-digit deaths...

At the same time, the first group of desperate paparazzi reporters rushed to the waters where the incident occurred in various small boats before the relevant departments began to control it. They captured the amazing scene with their cameras, and Quickly posted on the Internet:

A giant steel beast with a length of more than a thousand meters lay crookedly on the turbid yellow water of the Pearl River Estuary. Its majestic and huge hull is enough to put the largest 100,000-ton Ford-class aircraft carrier in the United States to shame. Although the appearance of the spacecraft was somewhat dilapidated, the hull, which was two to three hundred meters high, was still as shocking as a skyscraper in the water lying on the Lingding Ocean, which was only more than ten meters deep.

What's more, after the initial shock, some hardcore otakus on the Internet also found that the giant spaceship that landed at the Pearl River Estuary today seemed a bit familiar... reminding them of a movie that had already been released. An almost forgotten masterpiece-level Japanese space science fiction cartoon...

As a result, a huge uproar soon broke out in Internet forums around the world:

"...This...this...this is not the alien spacecraft Macross (German) that crashed into the earth in the old cartoon "Macross" or "Battlestar" decades ago. "Big Universe"? The appearance is almost the same! ”

"...Real or fake? Let me search some pictures to compare... Oh my god! It really looks like the original version of the Macross!"

"...Oh God! The Macross has arrived. Is the Zentraedi invasion fleet still far away? What should the Earth do?"

"...What should we do? Of course we should hold a girl singer audition as soon as possible and let the world's number one beautiful girl singer influence the aliens with her singing!"

"...I am urgently looking for the real-life version of the first-generation Galaxy Diva Lin Mingmei. Is the voice actor of Lin Mingmei still alive?"

"... Even if she is still alive, she is already an old lady who cannot sing. It is better to synthesize a virtual idol Lin Mingmei!"

"...Lin Mingmei is too old, isn't she? It should be replaced by galactic singers from later generations to save the world with love!"

"...Wait a minute, is the Macross that has arrived on Earth really an abandoned unmanned ship just like in the cartoon? Maybe there is already a group of fully armed Zentraedi inside, sharpening their knives and preparing for it. Open the hatch and come out to invade the earth!”

"...God, it seems I have to go stock up on cans! Well, there's also mineral water and gasoline!"

"...The man upstairs needs to act quickly, the small supermarket next to my house is almost sold out!"

"...Haha! If this is the case, the greedy Chinese will be the first to be unlucky. It's really satisfying..."

"...Unfortunately, this spaceship seems to be an unmanned ship. I am in Hong Kong now. The Chinese government has not issued an evacuation notice yet. It can be seen that the Chinese have made a lot of money this time... This kind of sky It's a good thing that the pie is falling, why can't it be my motherland's turn? Ah, I just received an emergency notice that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will soon be disconnected. I will upload the first-hand information I collected next time..."

"...The man upstairs, what falls from the sky is not necessarily a pie, it is more likely to be a bomb!"

"...The South Korean government has just issued a statement, declaring that this space battleship is the common property of all mankind and should not be monopolized by China. The narrow-eyed South Korean Secretary-General of the United Nations has now set off for Hong Kong to negotiate... But I guess it will be a disappointment.”

"...I hope there will be a tour of the alien spacecraft Macross in Hong Kong in the future, just like seeing the Arizona in Pearl Harbor"

……

All in all, with the crash of the Macross spacecraft at the Pearl River Estuary, Hong Kong, which had just been slightly calm, once again became the focus of the world's media and politicians, and was once again pushed to the forefront. The espionage crisis that had just died down has resurfaced in Hong Kong.

However, all these disturbances have nothing to do with Wang Qiu for the time being. Because, as soon as the Macross crashed, he was kicked back to the other world on the other side of the "door" by the relevant departments, lest he, the unlucky guy who was cursed by the "Main God System", would cause trouble on earth again. What's the next big news - several leaders in the central government have been scared to death and have heart attacks...

PS: Some readers complained that in "The Legend of the Galactic Heroes", the Galactic Empire, which still implements the aristocratic enfeoffment system in the universe era, is very unscientific. But in fact, this is quite possible. Because according to the setting of "Legend of the Galactic Heroes", faster-than-light communication has never been popularized, and the cost and time of inter-galactic transportation are also a headache. Most galaxies must be as basically self-sufficient as possible, and at the same time, there is no way to ask for instructions from distant places at any time. Star's superior leader believes that the cost of bulk trade across galaxies is too high and can only transport a small amount of luxury goods, similar to the camel caravans on the Silk Road. In this case, a giant political system that spans the galaxy will be as loose as the British Empire, and the central government can only delegate a high degree of power to the local governments. If the center is a monarchy, the local area will become like the Holy Roman Empire, a mixture of autonomous planets (free cities), noble territories, and royal territories. As for whether there will be another monarchy in the future, this is actually the paranoia of modern people. From a historical perspective, how did the Roman Republic turn into an empire? How did the democratic city-states of ancient Greece later become monarchies? When technical conditions cannot support the democratic system, returning to monarchy is a normal choice.

When the central government cannot directly control local areas, whoever controls the most powerful space fleet (inter-galactic mobile field army) will be the undoubted overlord of the galaxy. It can patrol various galaxies and order civilized planets to pay tribute. Once the actual control of the fleet changes hands, the throne will also be changed.

If democracy must be implemented in the cosmic age, the result will either be a small country with a few people (at most one country per star system), or it will refer to the representative system of the ancient Roman Republic or the early United States - when the United States was founded, even the telegraph still existed If not, how was the first president elected? However, if the estates of American slave owners were enlarged to planets, what would be the difference between them and the hereditary territories of nobles? There are also other shortcomings in "Legend of the Galaxy Heroes" that can also be explained by reasons such as corruption, false accounting, defrauding funds, and bureaucracy. The various levels of fraud and corruption in the cosmic era are definitely in our modern times. It is beyond human reach, such as directly erasing several planets from the star map and classifying them as private property. Of course, no science fiction novel is truly perfect, but it is not advisable to over-examine the rationality. After all, reality is more magical than fiction!
