Chapter 145 Time Calibration

Zhang Weidong talked a lot, and in great detail.

For example, how the first spirit was discovered, the life experiences of the first enhancer and the first awakener...

There are also some relatively important intelligence, such as how each country reacted when the doomsday just came, and the text and video intelligence sent from all over the world before the Internet was cut off.

Even before the communication was cut off, the major bases exchanged a lot of scientific intelligence with each other, and began to deduce the future, etc.

However, the more Xiao Jian listened, the more he felt something was wrong...

"Wait, how long has it been since the doomsday?" Xiao Jian finally couldn't help interrupting.

"Uh... about 11 months, and there's another month to go to a full year."

Zhang Weidong didn't think about it deliberately, and quickly gave a rough answer.

However...

"... It doesn't match." Xiao Jian frowned.

According to his physical sense, it has been less than a month since the doomsday.

And because his mobile phone still had power in the first few days, Xiao Jian could easily calculate the time of sunrise and sunset in the courtyard - that is, a very regular 12 hours of day and 12 hours of night.

Since the time in the courtyard is fine, could it be that Zhang Weidong and his team have a problem?

But even if the sunrise and sunset are so fast, it is impossible for a few hours to be a day, right?

If that were the case, the biological clock would have started to report errors long ago!

Besides, Xiao Jian has been observing them a lot during this period, and he didn't feel that the passage of time in other worlds was any different from that in the courtyard.

Although he knew that the problem might not be here, Xiao Jian still asked, "Can I see your timer?"

Several people didn't know what Xiao Jian meant, but the man with glasses quickly took off his watch and handed it over.

It's not a luxury watch, but it's also a very accurate quartz movement watch.

Unless the physical rules are messed up, the frequency of quartz will not be changed at all.

Xiao Jian took a rough look and confirmed that the watch was fine. After asking a few more questions, he also confirmed that N7183 is still 24 hours a day, with sunrise and sunset in the east and west.

"So, what went wrong..."

Although there are still many details that he hasn't understood clearly, Xiao Jian is no longer so curious about what happened to Zhang Weidong and his team.

There is only one question left in his mind, that is... why! ?

As Xiao Jian fell silent, the other people in the office also shut up and kept exchanging glances with each other.

…

In the distance, in a small courtyard deep in the fog.

Xiao Jian's body opened his eyes and ran to the second floor to look for something in the pile of debris.

He needed a reference point.

A reference time that aligned his timeline with that of others.

So in addition to his mobile phone, the most important clue was actually the flyer - the flyer that Xiao Jian found in the half-office building not long ago.

Because the paper of the flyer was relatively hard and not suitable for wiping buttocks, Xiao Jian threw it in the pile of cardboard.

At that time, he thought of using it to make the bed in the future...

Later, Xiao Jian opened the door of the old house and no longer had to build his own bed. The cardboard and cardboard were no longer useful, so they were piled on the second floor as debris with some value.

Fortunately, Xiao Jian found the flyers in the pile of debris.

…

In Zhang Weidong's office, Xiao Jian suddenly opened his eyes, and then a flyer and a mobile phone suddenly fell from above his head.

"Have you seen this flyer?" Xiao Jian said, and handed over the flyer with the location of the stronghold printed on it.

Everyone around the table took a rough look, and finally pushed it in front of Zhang Weidong.

"Oh, this... It seems to be a flyer from Nanyi." Zhang Weidong pointed to the map on the flyer, "Look here, Nanyi Fortress was called this name before."

Zhang Weidong's finger fell on the largest shelter marked on the map.

"So, when did this happen?" Xiao Jian asked.

Zhang Weidong recalled: "This date is probably one month after the first monster appeared!"

"So, there was already fog at that time?" Xiao Jian continued to ask.

"Of course, there were even cities that fell." Zhang Weidong confirmed.

So, the problem lies here!

After Xiao Jian resigned, he took the train directly back to his hometown.

Nothing happened during this period, the country was peaceful, and production and life were not affected at all.

Then, he returned to the old rural house where he lived when he was a child. Since it was late, he made a bed and went to sleep that day.

Assume that this day is D1.

Then on D2, Xiao Jian made some delicious food for himself, stewed meat and went to the town.

He bought some building materials in the town and consulted about some miscellaneous matters such as network cables. He ate in the town at noon and went home at night.

Then the day passed.

Then it was D3, which was the day when the fog fell and Xiao Jian was trapped in the courtyard.

But the problem is that the date when the flyer was distributed was D2.

At that time, Xiao Jian was still in the town. Whether it was the TV, mobile phones in the town, or people chatting and drinking in the restaurant, there was nothing abnormal.

According to Zhang Weidong, the first monster was found more than a month before D2.

Half a month before D2, the National Disaster Relief Committee was established, and all countries around the world entered a state of emergency.

A week before D2, the fog appeared and the world was divided... Finally, around D10 to D15, the entire world completely lost contact.

In other words, the disaster happened before Xiao Jian resigned...

But how is this possible! ?

"No, there must be something wrong..."

After experiencing so many events, Xiao Jian has seen a lot of storms...but at this time, his world view and even his own existence are filled with huge doubts.

Xiao Jian stood up involuntarily, and after walking back and forth in the office twice, he suddenly turned his head and asked: "Does any of you... have a mobile phone? Can you lend it to me?"

"I have it." Fatty Bai reached into his coat pocket and took out his cell phone and handed it to him.

Xiao Jian first took a look at the version of the operating system, and then opened the video, news and other apps to check the previous browsing history.

Finally, I opened WeChat and looked at Fatty Bai’s cache of friends.

Nothing unusual.

The timeline is almost consistent with what Zhang Weidong just said.

"..."

Xiao Jian sat back dejectedly and returned Fatty Bai's phone to him.

The office fell into suffocating silence again.

Fatty Bai glanced at the others. Whether it was Zhang Weidong, Shao Youxian or Zhang Jinyu, they all remained silent.

Even the favored little girl timidly held Zhang Jinyu's hand, not daring to say a word.

Fatty Bai thought about it and decided that he still had to rely on himself: "Um...Brother Xiao, what's going on? Can you tell us? We can help you, right?"

"Oh, that's right..." Xiao Jian handed him his cell phone, "Please help me charge it."

"okay."

Fatty Bai took the phone and originally wanted to go back to charge it, but after thinking about it, he went out to borrow a charging cable and placed the phone in Zhang Weidong's office to continue charging.

During this period, Xiao Jian also talked a little bit about his experience, mainly about the time line. He can finish it in a few sentences.

When Fatty Bai sat back down, he found that everyone at the table was frowning and thinking.

I just quit my job and returned to my hometown, and I just had dinner in town yesterday, but today I was suddenly surrounded by fog... This kind of thing feels unreasonable no matter how I hear it.

"According to the Lord God, the fog suddenly divided various settlements into fragments of the world. Even two days ago, it should have been the end of the end... It is impossible for normal trains to exist."

Having said this, Shao You pushed up his glasses first, looked at Xiao Jian and said, "But obviously there is no need for God to lie about this kind of thing."

"If both sides are true, then there are only two possibilities...either there is a problem with time or space."

"If it's the former, then the time when the Lord God's courtyard was divided by the mist is likely to be earlier than the appearance of the first spirit!"

"It's just that there were some subtle and imperceptible time distortions, which caused the Lord God to feel that only three days had passed."

"If that's the case, you should be able to check Lord God's mobile phone and look at the communication logs inside - especially when returning to his hometown by train. His mobile phone will definitely be connected to many base stations along the way. Check them one by one. You will definitely find some problems when you come down.”

Having said this, Shao Youxian pushed up his glasses again, paused for a while and waited for everyone to catch up, then continued:

"And if there is a problem with space... maybe the gods come from a parallel world."

"... String theory? Parallel world?" Fatty Bai frowned, "I don't think there is a parallel world... The so-called concepts of high dimensionality and multi-dimensionality are still essentially a matter of speed and time scales."

"The so-called 4-dimensional creatures see how we look... In fact, 4-dimensional creatures can't see us at all! It's just like when we observe two-dimensional creatures, because time and speed don't match at all!"

"Even if there are civilizations on an electron, they may perish before we are ready to observe..."

"And after one second on the scale of four-dimensional creatures, maybe the sun has aged, and maybe the Milky Way has been destroyed!"

"so……"

Before Fatty Bai could continue to explain his point of view, Shao Youxian interrupted: "So how are the world fragments formed? Why do monsters separate from the fog? What is the nature of monsters?"

"This weird doomsday has arrived. This is an iron-clad fact. Based on this fact, all the tools and theories we rely on to observe the world have lost their meaning."

"So, even if there really is a parallel world, it's not completely impossible."

Shao Youxian said.

"No, at least the underlying physical rules have not been proven invalid."

Fatty Bai still insisted on his opinion, and then the two of them began to talk randomly about some unintelligible words, such as strings and quantum... The words were confusing.

Xiao Jian simply walked around the two of them and dragged Zhang Weidong out to get some air.

"That... Lord God?" Zhang Weidong asked tentatively.

"Just call me Xiao." Xiao Jian waved his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Excuse me...how is the situation in Province 16? I mean, before the contact was severed."

"It should be fine. I haven't heard of any major disaster there." Zhang Weidong told the truth, "At least there was no big problem there before the information was cut off."

"So, you can't contact me now, right..."

"Yes."

"..."

Xiao Jian moved his fingers, as if he wanted to touch a cigarette... But he had given up this thing a long time ago, otherwise he would just use a lighter when making a fire, why would he knock on the stone.

"Ah."

Xiao Jian sighed unhappily and put his hands back in his pockets.

"Are there family members there?" Zhang Weidong asked.

"Well... I don't know how they are doing." Xiao Jian rubbed his face, but still couldn't wipe off the frustration on his face.

"Why don't we have a drink together tonight? I heard that a guy got a box of Moutai..."

"... Forget it." Xiao Jian glanced at Zhang Weidong, "I can't get drunk."

Xiao Jian's original body was still in the yard, and the original body of the clone was just a ball of plasticine, how could he get drunk?

"That's really meaningless." Zhang Weidong also sighed.

"Do you have anything delicious here? Fried chicken, French fries, braised pork... anything is fine as long as it's not instant food." Xiao Jian suddenly asked.

"We don't have braised pork, but we have a lot of bacon... Is that okay?" Zhang Weidong asked.

"Hiss... Yes, of course!" Xiao Jian's mouth almost watered when he heard that.

God knows what he has been eating during this period...

White rice with salt, white rice with sugar, white rice with pickles, bread and ham sausage... There are only a few ham sausages and I dare not eat more.

When the two chatted about what to eat in the evening and returned to the office, the debate between the man with glasses and the fat white man continued.

Zhang Jinyu was bored and scratched the paint on the table, and Rukia fell asleep on Zhang Jinyu's legs.

"Okay, okay, wait for you to go back and talk by yourselves... Let's have a celebration party tonight, go back and clean up, and come out for a good meal in the evening!"

Zhang Weidong interrupted the war between the two.

"We should look at the problem with a new perspective... young people." Shao Youxian stood up first.

"But rules are rules, and truth will not change easily." The fat white man also held his head high and said.

...

As the news of the celebration banquet slowly spread, everyone in the fortress town became visibly happy.

Yes, such a great battle not only got rid of the crisis of extinction, but also really cut off the sight of the evil god of destruction, Oriteo.

This is not only the victory of N7183, but also the victory of a series of small world fragments behind N7183!

The entire world chain was completely free from the danger of extinction at this moment... and Xiao Jian, who played the most important role, naturally became the most popular person at the entire dinner.

Regardless of whether they knew him or not, almost everyone came to say hello, and even toasted.

Xiao Jian also accepted everyone who came, and drank with a toast...

After this night, Xiao Jian gained another title of God of Wine.

...
