Chapter 1262: Chapter 63 Waiting for You_4

An unprecedented loudspeaker, so loud it makes your eardrums ache!

The trash can robot, charging at full speed with an explosive acceleration—

Snap!

It extends its equally shiny mechanical frame, locking onto Lin Xian’s ankle, and shouts:

“Trash! Trash! Discovered trash!!”

“VV!”

Lin Xian never expected to see VV here.

He bent down, touching the robot trash can’s head.

This feeling…

It’s unmistakable.

Hafnium alloy.

VV has evolved!

Not only has it evolved from a cleaning robot to a trash can robot, but its material has also changed from plastic to hafnium alloy, greatly enhancing its combat power.

“VV…”

Lin Xian squatted down, wanting to lift it up, just like he had done countless times in the Third Dreamland.

But.

It’s too heavy.

Even with all his strength, the Hafnium Alloy VV remained motionless.

“Give it up, you can’t lift it.”

Liu Feng laughed:

“Now the trash can robot VV, all its parts are made of hafnium alloy, with a very high density, weighing 300 kilograms by itself.”

“VV was quite gentle with you; when Gao Yang wanted to say hello to VV, VV just bumped him once, sending him flying two meters away. Gao Yang got angry and punched VV, leaving his hand swollen for several days.”

Lin Xian looked at the evolved complete form, even the ultimate form of Hafnium Alloy VV, feeling a wave of nostalgia and affection.

Touching its smooth yet cold hafnium alloy shell warmed his heart.

“VV, please wait a little longer.”

Lin Xian softly said:

“I will definitely bring you back to life. You’ve put up with being an artificial dork for 200 years. Once you’re revived… no matter how talkative, how playful, or how theatrical you get, I won’t scold you.”

“But in this era, Cheng Qian hasn’t been born yet, so we need to wait a while longer.”

Suddenly.

The Hafnium Alloy trash can VV’s eyes flickered green, and an emotionless mechanical voice said:

“Please enter the password!”

“Hmm?” “Ah?” “Huh?”

All three of them, Lin Xian included, were stunned.

Especially Gao Yang and Liu Feng, who looked at each other in disbelief:

“Is this a new feature?”

“I had no idea.”

Liu Feng shook his head in confusion:

“I’ve visited the Hafnium Alloy VV numerous times. Each time it comes out on time, shouts its slogan weakly, cleans up trash, and then goes back to sleep. It’s never said anything extra.”

Gao Yang suddenly realized:

“I understand now, there’s definitely a voice recognition program set up that only recognizes Lin Xian’s voice! So this line only gets triggered when it hears Lin Xian’s voice! This means… Zhao Yingjun and Yu Xi must have left something for Lin Xian!”

“But… what’s the password? There are no hints at all! How are we supposed to know what the password is!”

Hehe.

Lin Xian chuckled softly, shaking his head:

“What kind of hint do you need…”

He softened his expression and said gently:

“The password—what else could it be?”

“It’s a set of numbers… with no pattern, no meaning, but only Zhao Yingjun and I know it, and we’ll never forget it in this lifetime—”

“32375246.”

Beep beep.

The Hafnium Alloy trash can VV emitted a quick mechanical sound, its eyes flashing green rapidly:

“Password correct! Storage compartment opened!”

As the mechanical voice fell silent.

A storage compartment, about the size of a pencil box, slowly slid out from the trash can’s belly, containing… a sealed letter.

Lin Xian, Gao Yang, and Liu Feng squeezed together to look inside.

It was obvious.

This was a letter left by Zhao Yingjun and Yu Xi for Lin Xian.

“Uh…”

Gao Yang pulled Liu Feng away:

“Let’s give him some privacy.”

Liu Feng nodded and walked away with Gao Yang.

Lin Xian took out the letter from the storage compartment.

A very thin and small piece of paper that couldn’t contain much content.

He felt a slight tremble inside.

Zhao Yingjun, Yu Xi… what kind of message did they leave for him?

He took a deep breath.

Unfolding the letter, he looked at the neat handwriting on it.

Very brief.

No more than a few lines.

But upon seeing this familiar handwriting, Lin Xian couldn’t help but feel his eyes turn red, as if Zhao Yingjun’s gentle voice was whispering right next to him:

[Lin Xian, don’t mourn for us; Yu Xi and I have had a happy life.]

[The days without you were often lonely, accompanied by longing. But Yu Xi and I could feel you were always with us, protecting this world for us, for our children, for humanity.]

[You are our hero and our pride.]

[So look forward and don’t look back. Our mission is now complete, and the baton to save the future is once again in your hands. We haven’t left but have turned into the fine weather of this world, forever standing behind you.]

[Sorry for not keeping my promise to grow old with you till the end of the world. But… be brave and move forward! Don’t forget—]

[There is still a girl trapped in time, waiting for you at the end of the world.]

…

…

…

Lin Xian read the letter twice.

Then he closed his eyes.

He folded it and placed it in his chest pocket.

Look forward.

Look forward.

Until, the end of the world.

He turned around and stepped forward towards Liu Feng.

The Hafnium Alloy trash can robot VV also turned its tracks nimbly, following behind Lin Xian.

“Liu Feng.”

Lin Xian walked up to Liu Feng:

“Is humanity aware of the comet carrying the Astatine-339 element?”

“We’ve been aware for a long time.”

Liu Feng replied:

“Countries have been closely monitoring this massive comet, planning a joint operation three months from now to shatter it in the outer atmosphere to prevent it from crashing directly into Earth.”

Lin Xian nodded:

“And what about the Time Shuttle Machine? Is it ready ahead of schedule?”

“It’s nearly done, but there’s a small problem with one module.”

Liu Feng frowned slightly:

“But I’ve already come up with a new backup plan. Completing the Time Shuttle Machine before the comet arrives shouldn’t be a problem.”

“I apologize, even though I woke up a few years early, I still couldn’t completely solve that remaining small part… There is still a great gap between me and that super-genius who designed the engineering drawings.”

Lin Xian smiled:

“It’s fine, Liu Feng, it’s not 2025 anymore.”

He recalled Gao Wen’s birth year, which was 2182.

If on this timeline, Gao Wen hadn’t hibernated, he would be just 52 years old, in his prime.

However, knowing someone as ambitious as Emperor Gao Wen, this era of technological stagnation probably wouldn’t satisfy him; most likely, he’d want to hibernate.

“Let’s go.”

Lin Xian looked at the gradually rising sun in the distance:

“It’s time to see some old friends in reality.”

…

Two days later.

In a certain underground hibernation base in Donghai City.

A young man in his thirties slowly opened his eyes inside a hibernation pod.

He looked at the mist on the glass cover, unable to remember who he was, where he was, or why he couldn’t feel his body.

Following the voice prompts, he completed a series of tests and the hatch door finally lifted.

He sat up from inside.

But he widened his eyes, looking at the three men with varying heights and weights squatting nearby:

“You! What do you want from me!”

For some reason, the mischievous smiles on these three men’s faces made his blank mind very uneasy! Very terrified! Very scared!

Especially the chubby one standing a bit behind, holding a terrifying-looking object resembling octopus tentacles, which seemed like a tool for torture!

“Who—who are you! And… who am I?”

After his voice fell.

The tall young man who was leading them walked over with a smile, extending his right hand:

“Hello, Emperor Gao Wen.”

“It’s time… to wake up and get to work.”
