The Wandering Planet

While everyone was still arguing about this issue, Qiao Lv came back from outside. On the way here, he heard the main points of the meeting and understood what everyone was arguing about.

The moment he saw him come in, the scene suddenly became silent, and the people who had been arguing stopped arguing, because after he arrived, it meant that the meeting could reach a final result.

"Sorry, I'm late." Qiao Li said, and then found a seat to sit down, which meant that he also participated in the meeting.

"No, you came at the right time, Qiao Lv." Luo Feng said to him, "We are discussing what to do next."

US representative Derek also continued: "My opinion is still the same, it is time to stop the wandering earth."

For Qiao Li, the goal of letting the Wandering Earth continue to travel is very clear, because he not only has to face the quantum collapse of the Wandering Earth, but also realizes that in a higher dimension, a bigger disaster is about to strike. Come.

In this case, instead of resolving the quantum crisis of the wandering earth, everything will be fine. On the contrary, it is possible to usher in the end of all things without knowing it, just like what was said in the invitation sent by the return to zero.

But he may not be able to convince everyone about this matter, because it is difficult for others to recognize that except for him as a time traveler who can confirm that the existence of the Zero Returner is real, this is a real crisis, not just a crisis. It's just an unfounded hypothesis.

So in this case, Qiao Lv needs other more convincing reasons to convince the coalition government that it is necessary for the Wandering Earth to continue to travel to the next plane.

This is not such an easy thing.

While Qiao Lv was still thinking of a solution, Ding Yi, a representative of physicists who participated in the meeting, spoke first.

"Everyone, can you listen to me first?"

"Of course, Dr. Ding Yi."

As the scientist who has the deepest understanding of quantum physics on Wandering Earth, even if Ding Yi is not a high-level coalition government official, his words still carry great weight.

"I'm sorry that I should have told you about this earlier. Regarding the quantum state of the wandering earth, I know it would be difficult to explain it to you in an easy-to-understand way, but I still want to ask you first. What will happen to the earth after quantum collapse?"

"Not as you say,

There is a one-seventh probability of collapsing into a state of destruction. Can we survive in other cases? " Derek said of course.

Ding Yi hesitated and said, "That's true, but it's just a rough guess. In fact, we can't fully predict the specific situation."

"Then what will actually happen?" Qiao Li asked.

Ding Yi replied: "There are two possibilities that are easiest to predict. The first is that the wandering earth collapses to a state of destruction. This is the result of our initial failure in crossing. At that time, everyone will die from the helium flash of the sun, and the earth will also die together." It's gone to ashes."

"The second possibility is that the Wandering Earth gets rid of the instability of the current quantum state, which will allow us to stay in the current plane, and since the wandering Earth's travel is based on the instability of the quantum state, in the quantum state Once stabilized, we will no longer be able to travel to other planes."

"In the case of the second possibility, we can indeed survive, but we will sever contact with other planes, because our travels are all based on the quantization of the wandering earth itself. It means that Wandering Earth can no longer serve as a bridge to other planes."

After listening to Ding Yi's explanation, Qiao Li judged: "In other words, we will stay in this plane forever, that's what it means."

"In a sense, it's stranded on this plane. To this day, we haven't figured out how the Wandering Earth's initial crossing happened. So once it stops, we don't know when we can cross it again." Ding Yi replied.

"There's nothing wrong with that." Derek insisted. "At least we don't have to worry about the quantum crisis anymore. There is no half-year time travel, so we can rest assured and develop well."

"That's a big problem!" Qiao Lv immediately retorted, "If we have to stay on this plane, doesn't that mean we have to face the empire's rule? The entire galaxy is under the rule of the empire, and we stay in their On our territory, can the other party really allow us to develop well?"

"Isn't there a world-shielding sky screen?" Derek also retorted.

"It is true that the world-shielding sky screen can hide the location of the wandering earth, but what about our space exploration? What about mining resources in the universe? If we give up all this, we will stand still, but if we continue to develop, we will risk exposing ourselves."

Nothing could be more foolish than to avoid going head-to-head with the Death Star, only to end up in a protracted war with the Empire.

"Maybe we can have peace talks with the Empire." The French representative Bevin suggested, "Uh, maybe it's okay to surrender..."

This is of course not a wise choice.

British representative George suggested: "In this way, maybe we can find a way to use the remaining half a year to find a way to evacuate the people on the wandering earth to other planes as much as possible, and choose other planets as our new home. Call it the Great Evacuation."

It has to be said that this is a proposal that seems to be more realistic. Now the wandering earth can travel to several planes, and many of them can be used as the new home of human beings.

If the coalition government is determined to carry out the great retreat, it is indeed possible to send the people on the wandering earth to other planes within half a year.

This avoids being stranded on the Star Wars plane with Wandering Earth, and also avoids having to go head-to-head with the Death Star.

Evasion is shameful but useful, such is George's opinion.

But Ding Yi said: "I think it's probably useless."

"Why?"

George finally thought he had found a good method, but he was denied by Ding Yi, a scientist.

"Because the Wandering Earth's quantum crisis is not limited to itself, but also includes everyone who used to live on it. For example, if the Wandering Earth unfortunately collapses to a state of destruction, it will be pulled back to the point where the sun's helium flash erupts. For a moment, it’s not just the wandering earth itself, but also everyone on the earth at that time.”

"you mean······"

"If the quantum collapse of the Wandering Earth occurs, even if humans escape to other planes, they will not be spared, so leaving the Wandering Earth will not solve the problem."

In other words, maybe it is safer to escape to other planes, but if these people want to stay healthy forever, they must have someone to take the wandering earth across, it is best to make quantum collapse never happen.

Qiao Lv finally concluded: "If other people want to live and work in peace and contentment, someone must carry the burden forward. Can you make a decision now?"

Everyone was silent. After their plan was denied one after another, it seemed that they had no other choice.

"I will definitely choose to move on, so whether you want to escape or stay, it's up to you."

Leaving those words behind, Qiao Lv left the meeting, because he knew that this was the final word.
