Hibernation plan!

In the towering temple, Hathaway's voice echoed. At this moment, Lin Tuo was deeply moved when he heard the specific content of this plan.

Hibernation... this is not a new word, but he has never thought that it can be done using magic in a sandbox. Even if it can be endured, only a few people can bear it.

Hathaway said it simply, but if you think about it a little deeper, you will know that this must come at a huge price.

Hibernation does not extend life.

In a harsh environment, it is not easy to survive for decades without eating, and the most important thing is that those who participate in this plan themselves have to make great sacrifices.

Sleep today and wake up in the future... If it were modern times, many people might be attracted by this "romantic" idea and imagine that they could "travel" to the future.

But the premise of romance is that "the future is better than the present"!

However, in fact, for them, if they do not hibernate, they can stay in high positions and live their lives peacefully.

After a hundred years, you will have enjoyed everything you should enjoy, and you will not have much regret in dying.

But once they enter hibernation, it means that they will face the cruel future personally.

Moreover, when he woke up, it was difficult to find relatives and friends in the world... Alrod was relatively fine, but for Hathaway, the cost was particularly huge.

"...Is this a common thought among the three of you?" At the top of the round table, Lin Tuo was silent for a moment, looked at her deeply, and asked.

The three of them saluted at the same time: "Yes."

Lin Tuo was silent again, glanced at the four kings beside him who didn't look too surprised, and smiled with a slightly complicated expression:

"It seems that you have known about this plan in advance."

The four kings stood up and bowed, but they didn't say anything and were just silent.

Silence sometimes also means answers.

Lin Tuo pursed his lips, feeling an inexplicable feeling of respect in his heart.

There is no grand scene, no earth-shattering atmosphere. At this moment, here, there is only the empty hall and the seven people bending silently. It is extremely simple, but also extremely decisive.

For the three great patriarchs, after today, they will probably resign from their posts, hide behind the scenes, and become shadows floating around the world, traveling around the northern and southern continents.

Observe the world constantly and take action to correct it when necessary.

For the four kings, they not only have to endure the warning of an "angel", but they also have to worry about the "knife" hidden in the dark that may come at any time to behead themselves and even their descendants...

Maybe they will regret it later, when at least in the moment, the emotional feedback is real.

"Probably, this is humankind." Lin Tuo suddenly sighed with an inaudible voice, then nodded and said: "Since you have decided, let's do it."

After a pause, he looked at Anne Hathaway and said with a smile: "Let the meeting end here. I hope to see you again in a hundred years."

"It's my pleasure." Hathaway bowed.

Lin Tuo nodded, and immediately gave instructions, asking everyone to go back and carve the communication rune on the pure silver.

A hundred years later, before the meeting is held again, advance notice will be given, and those holding the rune silver plate will also be regarded as the descendants of everyone present and will be drawn into the temple.

This is another experimental ability of the communication rune. Lin Tuo has not yet tested it on Li Tai and Jiang Yishan, but he has used it here first.

"Let's adjourn the meeting."

After saying this, Lin Tuo waved his hand, and the connection between the seven people and the illusory space was immediately interrupted and disappeared, and this illusory temple collapsed and shattered.

…

In the study.

Lin Tuo suddenly opened his eyes. There was no fog around him, only the quiet night and the morning light shining outside the window.

He turned his head and glanced at the sand table next to him.

Viewed from this height, without zooming in, humans are as tiny as dust.

It is said that when astronauts look back at the Earth from space, they cannot see any trace of human beings.

In Lin Tuo's eyes, although it is not to this extent, compared to Sandbox World No. 2, the four major kingdoms... still seem too small.

"Can they really survive?" Lin Tuo didn't know, but he was hopeful.

"This time, the help I can provide is limited. What your fate is ultimately depends on you." Lin Tuo thought, calling up the virtual panel, turning off the 1:1 setting of "Time Flow Rate" and changing it to automatic adjustment.

Immediately, without taking another look at the sand table, he stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out to the martial arts field.

"Pah! Pah! Pah!"

At this moment, the sky is bright, and the fog on Lishan Mountain appears to be dense under the sunlight. The Taihe Mountains in the distance are even more so, like a fairy gate in a fantasy world.

In the courtyard, beside the wooden figure, Hua Xi, wearing a white training suit, was punching hard one after another, crisp and clear.

Tiger and tiger make wind.

She didn't seem to notice Lin Tuo's arrival, and she seemed to notice it, but she wasn't distracted.

In short, after completing a whole set of training, she huffed and puffed, holding her head of white hair that was constantly rising and soaked with sweat, and curiously walked to the eaves, looking at Lin Tuo's profile,

Can't help but ask:

"Teacher? What's bothering you?"

Lin Tuo withdrew his gaze from the endless mountains, looked at the little girl beside him, thought for a moment, nodded seriously, and said, "It's indeed a bit annoying."

"Can I share the teacher's worries?" Huaxi asked again.

Lin Tuo shook his head and said with a smile: "What worries me is not something you, me, or anyone else can change."

After a pause, he added: "However, your arrival is very fast. Perhaps you will be able to take care of my worries soon."

Huaxi seemed a little happy and excited. She raised her head slightly and asked, "Soon? How many days later?"

Lin Tuo laughed dumbly and rubbed her head: "That's not possible, it's too cold over there and you can catch a cold easily."

"?"

…

…

Naturally, Huaxi couldn't understand Lin Tuo's words, nor could he understand his joke.

Although the votive candles caused a lot of damage, they did not shake the foundation of civilization. In comparison, they were probably comparable to a horrific earthquake.

This also allows the flow of time inside and outside to still maintain a neither fast nor slow speed.

As society continues to develop, the flow rate ratio will become smaller and smaller and slower.

Just as Lin Tuo and Hua Xi moved out the small table and started eating breakfast.

Sandbox No. 2.

In an extremely cold place, there is a lonely and uninhabited land covered by thick ice.

Anne Hathaway, Alrod, and Neftu were three high-level extraordinary beings standing on the snow. In front of them was a huge stone door embedded in the glacier.

This place was originally a magic research laboratory in the ancient base, but at this moment, it has been transformed into a hibernation place.

Three months have passed since that roundtable meeting.

In the past three months, the three great imams have arranged for their cronies to build this place as quickly as possible.

And gradually transferred power with the cooperation of their respective kings.

He withdrew from the upper echelons of the three kingdoms for the reason of retreating to pursue spiritual pursuits and explore the true meaning of power.

"Who would have thought that the last meeting of the three of us would be here, saying goodbye in such a way." Hathaway, who took off her crown, glanced at the stone door, then looked at the two people beside her, and said with emotion.

Her bright red robe stood out in this extremely cold place, like a flame.

Alrod, who was tall and clad in a white robe and had a resolute face, glanced at Hathaway and muttered:

"I really don't want to be your neighbor."

"Then go out and dig a hole and bury yourself." Hathaway sneered, "We, Winton, paid for the construction of this laboratory."

Alrod was speechless for a moment. He was not good at words. He held it back for a long time and said angrily:

"I really can't bear to let a guy like you, who has a bad personality, be on the last shift."

Hathaway sighed and retorted:

"So you blame me? Who told you that you are old and weak, and let you serve in the last term? Haha, I am afraid that the younger generation will hang you up and beat you as soon as you are born.

If we fail to complete the task by then and meet with the observer, we don’t want to be embarrassed along with you.”

"You...you..." Alrod was shaking with anger.

"Okay," the gray-bearded Neftu next to him sighed and looked at the two of them helplessly, "Aren't you tired after fighting for so long?"

As he said that, the oldest extraordinary person looked at the stone gate with complicated eyes and said with a wry smile:

"Although this place looks quite cold, I really want to go in and have a look."

"Then let's take a look. When you go out after watching it, close the door tightly. Remember to wait until your health is gone. Then come back and dig the big guy out. Remember to be gentle when you dig him. I don't sleep well. I hear noises and easily suffer from insomnia.
