Chapter 1166: Chapter 36: Gathering Storms (Extra for Alliance Leader ng ng’s Dream!)_3
Hearing the question, Da Vinci and Gauss couldn’t help but laugh.
It was indeed a very “clever” question.
In their minds, they had already simulated a range of answers and realized that no matter what response Einstein gave, even if he refused to answer, it would still be possible to determine whether Copernicus was actually dead.
Only Lin Xian and Jask did not laugh.
The two exchanged a silent glance. The comical Rhein Cat looked intently at the serious Tesla but said nothing.
Unexpected…
Great minds think alike.
An old hand is an old hand. To co up with such an impeccable question in an instant truly impressed Lin Xian.
Einstein looked at Newton, paused briefly, and then shook his head:
“[From now on, never again.]”
Clap, clap, clap, clap…
Newton took the lead in clapping.
“If Turing were still alive, we should ask him to add effects like popping champagne, fireworks, and firecrackers to the gathering system. If not now, when?”
“Well done, Jask. You’ve eliminated a great scourge for humanity. However, I think even if you hadn’t killed him, he wouldn’t have lasted much longer. Given his physical condition, even if he entered the Hibernation Pod, surviving long enough for the future would have been questionable.”
“Still, I must express my respect. Back then, I couldn’t bring myself to kill Copernicus after our in-person gathering ended, and it’s a regret that’s haunted ever since… Now, though it’s a bit late, you’ve truly helped resolve it.”
Miss Da Vinci also took a deep breath:
“I can’t believe it. Copernicus is really dead. Although I’ve long anticipated this day, as the first mber to join the Genius Club, he had the most perfect, unrestricted chance to pose questions… I thought he must have known many secrets and wouldn’t be so easy to kill.”
“Everyone dies.”
Across from her, Galileo said softly:
“Human beings are inherently imperfect. We make mistakes, we falter, and our flesh and blood cannot withstand bullets. The Genius Club Charter specifically emphasizes concealing our identities for this very reason.”
“No matter how many secrets or truths you know, what’s the use? A single bullet can pierce anyone’s skull, and a knife can stab through anyone’s heart. In terms of physical fragility, humanity is indeed equal.”
…
Jask joined Newton in clapping, his deanor suggesting that this was as it should be. He wasn’t surprised by Einstein’s answer.
Lin Xian also felt half-relieved.
Although he couldn’t shake a vague feeling that sothing was off, with Einstein having said so, it largely confird that Copernicus was indeed dead. The old man he had killed… truly was Copernicus himself!
At the sa ti, another possibility ca to his mind.
The sa one he had considered before.
If Copernicus was dead, would soone else inherit his legacy and continue executing his future plans?
But then, there appeared to be a contradiction.
Because Einstein had clearly stated that, from now on, no scientist or mathematician would die due to human causes at 00:42. This indicated that Copernicus’ plan had completely failed.
How should this be interpreted?
Unless…
[The true plan of Copernicus was deeply hidden, far from the surface simplicity it appeared to have!]
“The Space-ti Police Bureau, the Space-ti Courthouse, the Ti Shuttle Machine.”
Three keywords popped into Lin Xian’s mind.
Now it was almost certain.
The Copernicus who caused the deaths of Xu Yun, Tang Xin, and Ji Lin’s parents was indeed the one he had killed.
His revenge with Angelica was truly complete.
This was undoubtedly good news.
But the mysterious old man from the Fourth Dreamland—was he really Copernicus, or was this now a question waiting for verification?
Even if he wasn’t Copernicus, he must be related to him. He was probably an accomplice, akin to a “Second Copernicus.”
Ultimately…
Lin Xian’s greatest concern all along had been whether the Entangled State of Ti-Space Particle would be stolen by Copernicus.
Now that Copernicus was dead, did it an that the ti-space particle wouldn’t be stolen and that he would no longer be relentlessly pursued by Ti-Space Assassins?
He made up his mind.
When it was his turn to ask a question, he would inquire with Einstein about ti travel and the Ti-Space Assassins to further eliminate any hidden dangers.
After Newton and Jask’s successive applause subsided, Einstein looked at Galileo:
“Galileo, it’s your turn.”
“I want to know if there’s a way to retain mories even after awakening from long-term hibernation.”
After a brief pause, Galileo added:
“Other than the clumsy thod of waking up every few years and significantly damaging the body and lifespan.”
“[Start with neuroscience.]”
Einstein responded:
“When neuroscience achieves its next major breakthrough, humanity will completely overco the problem of hibernation amnesia.”
Bad!
Lin Xian furrowed his brows, alard.
This answer from Einstein… hit the mark perfectly! Uncannily precise!
He could already foresee it.
Next month, during the October 1st gathering, Galileo would definitely ask again about the tiline for major breakthroughs in neuroscience and the nas of involved scientists.
It was inevitable.
Einstein would publicly na [Du Yao] in front of everyone.
Everyone present knew how revolutionary an invention capable of overcoming hibernation amnesia would be. It would undoubtedly reshape the global order and the future of humanity!
If Galileo, or perhaps Gauss, Newton, or others found Du Yao and decided to protect her, providing funding and facilities for her research to ensure she achieved breakthroughs… that wouldn’t be a problem at all. Lin Xian, after all, had no intention of monopolizing the [Neural Electrocution Helt] technology.
