Chapter 912 -38: The Girl in the Hibernation Pod (Extra for the Silver Alliance Patron loading7!) Chapter 912 -38: The Girl in the Hibernation Pod (Extra for the Silver Alliance Patron loading7!) Eating in this dining hall-like place, Lin Xian was continuously observing the surroundings and the crowd.

At a glance,

The level of technological development in The Sixth Dreamland seemed to far surpass that of The Fifth Dreamland.

Basic electric appliances like lights and fans were all available; there was no need to worry about electricity, as no city in The Sixth Dreamland ever had to build power plants, nor did any city have to pay for electricity.

Because…

Just as Big Face Cat said…

Miniature nuclear batteries were so rampant and powerful.

Just dig in the ground, and if you can’t find a large piece, search for a smaller one.

...

The quantity of discarded electrical appliances and electronic devices accumulated over hundreds of years is a rather frightening number.

Moreover, these batteries contained a surprisingly high amount of energy and could be manufactured at a gratifying rate.

Take that electric fan, for instance; you couldn’t see any external wires at all, it just kept turning and turning, the energy that drove its rotation naturally coming from the miniature nuclear battery inside.

The theory with the cafeteria’s electric lights was the same.

You could see two wires extending from the power supply box to a coin-sized, flat rectangular miniature nuclear battery.

It was hard to imagine…

According to what Uncle Wei Shengjin from the previous dream had said, such a small battery could keep the lights on for thousands of years.

Truly, when people leave the lights remain, and when lights leave the battery can still be reused.

Lin Xian could already roughly guess how Rhein Company went bankrupt in this dream:

“Could it be because the miniature nuclear batteries were so difficult to use that once a family bought one, it was passed down for three generations?

Turning into a real heirloom…

It would probably take several generations to consume just one battery.”

This idea was indeed interesting.

But no, that wouldn’t be the case.

Firstly, even with one-time purchases, a person would use many electronic devices and household appliances in their lifetime; without the old being replaced, there would be no new.

With such a large global market, there’s never been a case of a company going bankrupt because its products were too good in quality.

Even Nokia, once the absolute king of the phone industry, is said to have claimed up to 80% of the world’s mobile phone sales share, and the quality of their phones was exceptional, good for cracking walnuts, serving as a car jack, even withstanding Thanos with no problem…

They were truly indestructible phones.

But in the end, there were many reasons that led to Nokia’s bankruptcy and acquisition, and none of them had to do with good quality.

Moreover, Rhein Company had many profitable operations, simply the IP licensing of Rhein Cat alone could allow one to rest easy for a lifetime, so there was no possibility of going bankrupt.

Rhein Company in The Sixth Dreamland was likely destroyed in the 2400 super disaster just like Tem Bank was.

Lin Xian still couldn’t understand—

“Who exactly triggered the super disaster in the year 2400, and by what means was it triggered?”

These two questions were equally baffling.

It was completely incomprehensible, who would commit such a self-harming act that injures Earth, our mother, and destroys the environment; and why there was any necessity to do so.

Initially, Lin Xian suspected that Jask had orchestrated a disaster in order to drive more people to migrate to Mars and fill the population void.

This speculation, although without evidence, could still stand up logically.

After all, population dividends and talent reserves are also eventual issues that need to be faced on Mars.

So…

Jask did indeed need a large number of Earth people to come to Mars to help him build and develop it and carry out a series of plans that came after.

From this perspective,

Jask was indeed successful.

It’s just that the cost was a bit too high, nearly destroying the entire Earth; an extreme trade, exchanging one homeland for another.

Lin Xian found it hard to judge such behavior.

His instinct still hoped that Jask wasn’t such a bad person.

After all…

Jask had indeed helped him a lot, especially when he destroyed the space-time particle to save him and broke Copernicus’s closed loop.

And now, there was no smoking gun or evidence to suggest that Jask was to blame, so it was better not to throw around baseless accusations just yet.

Later, after Lin Xian became convinced of Jask’s innocence, he began to suspect that perhaps it was the digital life Turing that caused the Earth’s catastrophe.

But now it seemed,

Turing also appeared to be a victim, with its own situation being a mess, and with no news of what became of the original Turing’s grudges and grievances with Jask.

Did they eventually make peace?

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.

Or, as in the plot in The Fifth Dreamland, did Jask fail again and was then killed?

Mysteries.

Other numerous mysteries had yet to be unraveled when the mystery of Earth’s super disaster in 2400 once again flooded Lin Xian’s mind.

Besides not being able to guess the instigator,

How was such a thorough “natural hazard” triggered?

From the perspective of conspiracy theories,

The scale of this Earth super disaster in 2400 was well-managed, almost extinguishing human civilization while still leaving the last glimmer of hope and eventually allowing Earth to return to its original green mountains and rivers.

“I hope I can get some information from [Turing].”

That was also why Lin Xian proposed the prison break plan earlier, seeking to find the Turing Computer at the Grizzly Tribe or Porcupine’s abode.

Even if these Turings were not the original prototype Unit-01, they were after all cloned copies, and their memories should be no different from the original Turing’s.

That is to say,

As long as the original Turing remembered the encounter with Lin Xian, remembered that it was Lin Xian who killed Kevin Walker, and remembered the conversation they had had in the abandoned school’s basement…

then upon seeing Lin Xian for the first time, it would instantly remember who it was.
