Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

102 years, 103 years.

Under the tireless mobilization of Suigu Zhizhi,

The construction work of the Quest voyage spaceship has been continuing.

In the Research Institute, except for some researchers who choose to enter hibernation,

Some other researchers have gradually returned to their daily research work in their respective fields.

After all, although the theoretical design work of the long-distance spacecraft is completed, it does not mean that there are no more problems to think about in their respective research fields.

However, after all, the Qiusuo voyage spaceship is of special significance to the Qiusuo Research Institute.

It can be said that it is the biggest and most fundamental mission goal since the founding of the Qiusuo Research Institute.

Researchers in various fields still inevitably pay more attention to the construction progress of the quest from time to time.

And outside the Qiusuo Research Institute,

People are paying even more exaggerated attention to the construction of the Qiuzhuo at this moment.

For people in this era, this is almost the biggest thing in this era.

After the quest officially entered the construction stage,

Regarding everything about the Qiuzou number, it seems that there is never a day that completely stops on the entire Internet and in reality.

Many people are really looking forward to it.

Most people in this era already have sufficient understanding of the significance of the completion of the quest.

The simplest summary is that it is the beginning of a new era.

In these few years,

In human society, a popular tourism project has even emerged.

That is, take an interstellar spacecraft, arrive in the orbit of Neptune, and watch the construction progress of the Quest up close.

"...It's too exaggerated. Although if it were placed on the ground, it would definitely not occupy as much space as the industrial cluster covering the entire Triton, but as a spaceship, it is still too exaggerated..."

"... I have seen the video shot on the Internet before, but seeing the Quest spacecraft up close, which is still under construction, still makes me feel like I have a phobia of giant objects. When I looked up, It doesn’t feel like a spaceship is in Triton orbit, it feels more like a star is pressing on your head. It’s too exaggerated and terrifying..."

"...It seems that for the first time, I have a clearer understanding of the current productivity of human beings. Is this kind of thing really created by us? Don't say that I feel small when facing the quest, it's just me The interstellar spacecraft we are riding in feels small when we get close to the Quest spacecraft.”

"... This was before the construction of the Quest was completed. When it was actually built, I don't know how exaggerated it was... and such a behemoth could run forward at 6% or 8% of the speed of light... I can only say that Chief Mo is awesome, Qiusuo Research Institute is awesome, and humans are awesome!”

And everyone who arrives on Triton and sees the Discovery under construction at close range will be left with the most heartfelt exclamations, including some blurted out swear words to vent their emotions.

but,

It's such a huge thing,

In fact, it challenges productivity in the intelligent era.

The productivity in the smart era has been quite exaggerated.

Especially when a large part of the productivity of one of the industrial centers of mankind is directly mobilized,

But it still takes years to complete the construction of the quest.

This in itself is an exaggeration.

To a certain extent, this is something that can only be created after the intelligent age reaches its peak.

A steady stream of interstellar spacecraft sail around the solar system, providing resources for the production of Triton.

Hundreds of millions of smart production devices work in the Triton Industrial Center for this feat.

The huge cluster of basic computing units provides computing power to support the stable progress of all production and construction.

Time just goes on like this,

We came to year 104, year 105...all the way to year 109.

Even under the responsibility of Suigu Intelligence, which mobilizes the productivity and huge resources of the entire Triton Industrial Center,

The construction of the voyage spaceship Qiushi continued until the year 109.

…

This year, according to objective time, Mo Dao is over 121 years old.

This year, with the construction of the Quest spacecraft in the orbit of Triton, it gradually came to its final stage and then stopped completely.

Mo Dao, as well as the researchers who had previously chosen to hibernate until the year the Discovery spacecraft was completed, many people will also wake up from hibernation.

This year,

Although the Qiusuo Research Institute has not officially announced the completion of the Qiusuo voyage spacecraft,

But many people who have been paying attention to the construction process of Discovery can still notice the changes in the behemoth in Triton's orbit.

This year, the number of tourists traveling to the orbit of Neptune has increased significantly.

Many tourists choose to stay for a longer period of time after arriving at Neptune.

They knew that with the completion of the construction of the voyage spacecraft Quest,

Chief Master Mo will definitely wake up, and he will definitely arrive here after waking up.

And here, something epic will happen.

People who have been looking forward to it for a long time naturally want to witness this historic moment closer.

…

This year, there are still many researchers who woke up before Xian Mo Dao, as well as hibernators outside the Research Institute.

These researchers, the first thing people do when they wake up,

Basically, they asked 'has the construction of the quest ship been completed' and 'has Commander Mo woke up from hibernation?'

After learning that the construction of the Quest voyage spacecraft had indeed been completed,

Most of the researchers were excited at first and then slowly calmed down, just waiting for Chief Mo to wake up from hibernation.

…

From 1997 to 109, 12 years.

For a hibernator, it's just a moment.

During the time of hibernation here, the hibernator seems to be temporarily withdrawn from the passing time of this world,

What happens in the outside world has nothing to do with hibernators.

Even for Mo Dao, he could vaguely feel the passage of time while hibernating.

Those are also memories after waking up from hibernation and regaining consciousness.

This year,

Mo Dao was awakened in the middle of the year.

And although hibernating on the ground,

But when Mo Dao woke up, he was not on the ground, but woke up directly in the permanent base of Triton in the orbit of Neptune.

This is also something that was planned in advance,

It can be regarded as saving Mo Dao some time from the ground to Triton.

…

“…6,307,201”

"...Commander Mo, it is now the year 109, and you have been hibernating for 12 years. Your current location is inside the Triton permanent base."

It's almost like waking up from hibernation last time,

After regaining consciousness, Mo Dao saw some of the core researchers within the Quest Research Institute, as well as Qin Huaishi, who also woke up after entering hibernation.

The countdown in front of me has not passed much compared to before hibernation.

but,

Compared with waking up after the last hibernation,

This time it was obviously more painful or a lot more uncomfortable.

My body obviously feels weaker. At this moment, after I just regained consciousness from hibernation,

The body is heavy, like a pile of rotten wood filled with water, not driven by consciousness.

This is the limitation of human hibernation technology. After waking up from hibernation for a long time, the physical condition will be increasingly affected.

"Um."

Mo Dao looked at the crowd and responded,

"Has the quest been built ahead of schedule?"

"Yes, Mo Yuan. The construction of the Qi Suo has been completed."
