Chapter 1250: Chapter 61: Your Stars and Ocean (Extra for Monthly Votes!)_2

“But… sigh, how to put it, there’s still regret.”

He turned his head and looked at the [Arithmetic Sequence] written on the blackboard, above which were the names of the girls who had been in this laboratory, arranged sequentially by age difference–

Yan Qiaoqiao, (blank), Chu Anqing, Su Su, Zhao Yingjun, Huang Que.

“The arithmetic sequence is not yet complete.”

Liu Feng said regretfully.

For a moment, Lin Xian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry:

“You’re still hung up on your arithmetic sequence, I really didn’t expect this to become your regret.”

Liu Feng walked to the blackboard and pointed at the space between the names of Yan Qiaoqiao and Chu Anqing:

“There should be a 17-year-old girl here, but… for so long, no girl of this age has ever come to the laboratory.”

“It seems this time, the arithmetic sequence is truly going to be a regret.”

He closed his eyes.

His five fingers spread open, pressing against the blackboard:

“When the future comes, will the final arithmetic sequence… be completed?”

“Erase it.”

Lin Xian said:

“There shouldn’t be a chance to complete it now.”

“Sort and organize the materials these two days, we’ll go to the Imperial Capital. I’ve already contacted the Agricultural Science Institute, they’ll provide us with the latest model of Hibernation Pods. Yingjun is also planning to produce in the Imperial Capital, so… we can spend more time together, until early morning of April 17th.”

“You don’t have to worry about the laboratory, Zhao Yingjun will take care of everything, including MX Company, Rhein Company, Shanhe Corporation, and other research labs… Zhao Yingjun will handle it all, she’ll pave the way for us throughout her life, waiting for us to awaken.”

With that, he glanced at his watch and walked out of the laboratory:

“I’ll leave first; I have an appointment with Jask at the Tesla Super Factory.”

Liu Feng was taken aback:

“Is Jask also going to hibernate with us?”

“Yes.”

Lin Xian nodded:

“He is also someone with ideals and beliefs, he doesn’t want to die in this era, he wants to go to the future with us to witness it all.”

Liu Feng acknowledged:

“That’s good, when we awaken in the future, the world around us will be all unfamiliar, and everyone we know will have died during the 200 years of the virus’s effect. If we have one more companion… it’s naturally better.”

“Don’t worry, Liu Feng.”

Lin Xian reached the doorway, turned back, and smiled:

“Our companions are more than you think.”

“That also brings me warmth… there are still many idealists in this world, and luckily, we have many such people around us.”

…

East Sea, New Port District, Tesla Super Factory.

“Hmm…”

After listening to Lin Xian’s detailed explanation, Jask rubbed his chin and said:

“I see, I really didn’t expect plain and dull Gauss to have such a big plan concealed; however, I feel that Gauss truly decided to implement this plan not long ago.”

“Why do you say that?” Lin Xian asked.

“Because Gauss asked a lot of questions before, each one varied, covering different fields.”

Jask spread his hands:

“If Gauss had only raised questions about viruses and immunity at the gathering, we could have guessed it long ago. But actually, in those previous years… he must have thought of many other plans, perhaps none of which came through, so he finally opted for the Hibernation Suppression Virus.”

Lin Xian didn’t speak.

Recalling the previous eight dreamlands, there was no trace of the Hibernation Suppression Virus, it was a historical event unique to The Ninth Dreamland.

In this light…

Gauss truly made this decision, the moment of deciding to achieve fairness in life and death, should have been after he joined the Genius Club himself.

Is it possible that some of his actions affected his determination?

Thinking about it.

The biggest change after joining the Genius Club was the successive deaths of club members.

First, Kevin Walker and Turing, then Jask’s feigned death, then Copernicus, and after that was Da Vinci.

Considering the timeline, if it was indeed the death of a certain genius that made Gauss determined, it must have been Copernicus.

Could it be that after Copernicus’s death, Newton asked if more scientists would die at 00:42, and upon receiving a negative answer… did Gauss suddenly have an epiphany?

It’s possible.

Lin Xian thought.

If Copernicus had a Hibernation Pod and the chance to survive for centuries, he would certainly continue plotting against scientists and mathematicians.

But precisely because he died, this killing paused, and in Gauss’s view, this should be a great joy, so he formally made up his mind to inject the virus, bringing fair death to humanity, returning this most equitable aspect of human existence to the world.

“Are you sure Gauss injected the virus into himself?” Angelica asked.

“It should be.”

Lin Xian nodded:

“If Gauss is truly someone who pursues equality to such an extent, then he shouldn’t give himself special treatment, leaving a back door for himself.”

Angelica crossed her arms and leaned against the door:

“If that’s the case, then Gauss can be considered someone who does what he says.”

“Actually, hearing what you all said, I still don’t have much against Gauss as a person. First, I personally agree with his viewpoint, that everyone’s equal death is indeed the most normal societal form; secondly, he sets an example by infecting himself with the virus, dying according to normal natural laws… that indeed is a person with principles, that is true equality.”
