Chapter 6: True Or False, Doesn’t Matter
Either a transmigrator, or related to alien forces.
This judgment seems somewhat absurd, but under the current circumstances, it forced all attendees to accept it.
“Our physics group’s judgment is that the probability of possibility two is slightly higher.
The reason is simple: the existence of alien civilization is foreseeable, while transmigration, time loop…… our existing physics theories have no concept of it at all.
For example, the so-called superluminal curvature navigation, which we absolutely cannot achieve at our current stage. But at least, we have some theoretical descriptions related to this possibility.
As for time loop, we don’t even have a theory to describe this possibility.”
Believing that Jiang Yang belongs to alien forces, or is simply an alien himself, was already absurd enough. But from Professor Lu Zhaoming’s mouth, compared to the possibility of time loop, the former surprisingly didn’t seem so absurd.
“Alien civilization…”
Numerous experts fell silent, silently pondering this name.
Sun Changhe looked toward the psychology and social science group: “If it is alien civilization, then, can we assess its motives and purposes based on the existing intelligence?”
“We believe it is unlikely. In fact, for us, if Jiang Yang is really related to alien civilization, or is simply already occupied by an alien who has mastered super technology, then, one thing is very obvious: even if what he says is fake, we cannot find any flaws.
That expert paused for a moment, then continued: “But…… this actually doesn’t matter.
What matters is, even if all of Jiang Yang’s first nine prophecies come true, can we really determine the truth of the apocalypse prophecy?
This similarly cannot be determined.
Don’t forget, the fulfillment of the first nine prophecies can only prove that Jiang Yang indeed possesses the ability to prophesy the future. And…… if he has this ability, does that mean the prophecy he makes must be true?
What if he is only using this prophetic ability to intentionally guide us to do things that he, or possibly the alien forces behind him, hope we will do?
The only way to confirm the truth of the apocalypse prophecy is for the apocalypse to truly arrive.”
This expert’s statement caused the entire meeting room to fall into silence once again.
This was a point that the attendees had not thought of before.
Just as all the attendees were deep in thought, this expert from the psychology group spoke again.
“But whether the prophecy is true or false actually doesn’t matter either.”
Sun Changhe’s eyelids suddenly lifted, looking toward that expert’s figure.
The other attendees also showed surprise on their faces.
“What matters is, assuming the prophecy is true, what can we do.”
Sun Changhe’s brows furrowed slightly. After pondering for a moment, he looked toward the head of the military strategic intelligence team, Gu Changshan.
“This is also what I wanted to say.
According to Jiang Yang’s report, the apocalypse he saw was that all players and spectators of the football match on the other side of Earth, the commentary, and everyone in the bar where he was, pedestrians on the street, vehicle drivers all suffered indescribable pain and lost their lives in a short time.”
Wearing a military uniform, the rugged-styled Gu Changshan spoke methodically: “This is all the intelligence we know about this apocalypse. And from this intelligence, what can we analyze?
The type of apocalypse? Source? Cause?
The fact is, we can’t analyze anything.”
He looked toward the medical group expert: “Professor Cheng, what do you think?”
Professor Cheng Li sighed softly: “Based on the symptoms described by Jiang Yang, there are simply too many possibilities, we cannot determine what exactly he encountered during the apocalypse.
In this day and more, I also led the most comprehensive examination of his body, but there was no harvest.”
Gu Changshan continued: “A very cruel reality is that if the apocalypse is true, then…… this time we are destined for extinction.”
He bluntly stated this conclusion without hesitation: “We fundamentally have nothing we can do.”
“Under the premise that the apocalypse and time loop are true, in this life, the only thing we can do is to assist Jiang Yang as much as possible, gather as much apocalypse intelligence as possible, then use his time loop ability to let him bring this intelligence to us in the next life, and plan to solve the apocalypse in the next life.
My suggestion is, no need to think about verifying the truth of the apocalypse and Jiang Yang’s words anymore, directly assume they are true, and proceed with action.
The reason is simple: assisting Jiang Yang to gather apocalypse intelligence requires no excessive resources, nor does it cause much disturbance. Even if we find out we were deceived in the end, we won’t lose much.
Since that’s the case, why not do it?”
The attending experts quietly pondered, then quickly realized that it was indeed the case.
This is the only thing we can do in this life.
Sun Changhe pondered for a long time before slowly saying: “Any supplementary opinions?”
After waiting more than ten seconds and seeing everyone silent, Sun Changhe said: “Then, I announce the following decision.
One, establish the apocalypse response command headquarters, fully responsible for this incident, I will serve as director, directly reporting to the highest level.
Two, take ‘assuming the apocalypse is true’ as the highest guiding principle, and carry out all subsequent actions under this principle.
Three, allocate Luoyun Mountain Base No. 7 as the action site, appoint Gu Changshan as on-site commander, coordinate all on-site matters, and establish corresponding psychology support team, physical verification team, logistics support team, strategic intelligence team, etc., facing Jiang Yang, to fully gather and verify apocalypse intelligence.
Among them, the physical verification team includes geology group, physics group, medical group, meteorology group, astronomy group, etc. Experts in related fields must report to Base No. 7 within one day.
Four,…”
Having made the decision decisively, Sun Changhe looked at the numerous experts on the network meeting room screen, his tone full of solemnity.
“Comrades, our civilization is facing what is likely the greatest challenge since its birth.
Wish us, and our nation, our civilization, good luck.
Meeting adjourned.”
The screen in front returned to darkness.
Professor Tian Ning stood up from his chair, and for some unknown reason, his body staggered, nearly falling.
Supporting himself with the chair back, he panted for a long time before finally stabilizing.
Although at this moment the truth of the apocalypse cannot yet be determined—just as Gu Changshan said, no one can determine the truth before the apocalypse truly arrives—but rationally judging, he was already certain that the authenticity of the apocalypse was at least over sixty percent.
And…… if the apocalypse is true, we in this life have no chance at all. We are already doomed to annihilation, the only thing we can do is gather intelligence and pass it to the next life.
But the me in the next life…… is it still me?
A trace of bewilderment appeared on Professor Tian Ning’s slightly plump face.
But that trace of bewilderment faded the next moment, returning to its original determination.
First, hurry to arrange the research institute matters, the airplane to pick me up should arrive soon.
