Chapter 398

"Student Ding Yu, I know you still have some questions you want to ask me today, but before that, I want to make a deal with you first. I wonder if you are willing?" Chen Boshi said calmly after Wang Yu walked over.

"A deal? Does the Doctor mean the base wants to make a deal with me?" Wang Yu asked subconsciously after being stunned for a moment.

"Not the base, nor Huaguo. It is a deal I personally want to make with you."

"As an additional condition for the deal, I can answer three questions of yours within the scope of my authority." Chen Boshi said without hesitation.

"A deal with the Doctor personally?"

Wang Yu showed a look of surprise; this was indeed somewhat unexpected.

"Why, student Ding Yu, do you feel that I am not qualified to make a deal with you?" Chen Boshi asked back.

"That's not it, but can I know the content of the deal first?" Wang Yu shook his head and said after turning his thoughts rapidly a few times.

"The content of the deal is related to the timing on this watch of yours." Chen Boshi pointed to his wrist, looking very meaningful.

"Future military service?" Wang Yu blurted out upon hearing this.

"The term 'future military service' is quite appropriate. Not bad, it is indeed related to the military service you will serve in the future."

"When this military service begins, I need you to help me do one thing. In exchange, I will try my best to help you retreat unscathed in this military service. I cannot say anything more than that." Chen Boshi said calmly.

"Doctor, 'Star River' really has a lot to do with you all." Wang Yu sighed and said after listening.

But Chen Boshi just smiled and said nothing.

"Can I ask, is this military service very dangerous?" Wang Yu asked again after thinking for a moment.

"Does this count as one of the three questions?" Chen Boshi asked back with flickering eyes.

"It counts."

Wang Yu replied without hesitation.

This was a matter related to his own life, so he naturally wouldn't be vague at all.

"This military service is very dangerous. You will face very terrifying, very powerful, and even desperate opponents. After this military service ends, the probability of you retreating unscathed is likely only one in four or five, and this probability might even be lower." Chen Boshi said slowly, his voice somewhat cold.

"Is it really that dangerous, with such a low probability? Then what help do you need at that time, Doctor? Is it related to these opponents?" Wang Yu felt a chill in his heart and asked repeatedly.

"What help, I cannot tell you any specific content now."

"But rest assured, what I want you to do is definitely something within your ability. If it really exceeds your ability, you can refuse at that time." This time, the Doctor did not answer Wang Yu's question, but explained lightly instead.

"Then I'll ask one more question. Doctor, why did you choose me?"

"As far as I know, although there are not many people who can be selected by military service, looking at the whole of Huaguo, there should be quite a few. Just in the base, there should be several." Wang Yu asked again after thinking.

"Choosing you is because I am quite optimistic about your potential. I feel that among the people I have come into contact with, you are the most likely person to help me." Chen Boshi replied frankly.

"Understood. I agree to this deal, but the premise for this deal to be established is that the Doctor must also help me during the military service." Wang Yu stared at Chen Boshi and said, no longer hesitating.

"That is for sure, otherwise how can it be called a deal? Below, I can answer two more questions. Have you thought about what you want to ask?"

"Remember, I can only answer questions that I can answer. For example, I cannot answer most of your questions from yesterday, but if what you ask exceeds the scope, it won't count, and you can ask again." Chen Boshi said with a smile finally appearing on his face upon hearing this.

"That is to say, questions involving the future Blue Star disaster and 'Star River' are excluded from the scope." Wang Yu said thoughtfully upon hearing this.

What he actually wanted to ask most was about the future enemies of Blue Star—whether they were really those Star Cloud Beasts that appeared in 'Star River.'

"Yes, even everything that happens in the future belongs to top-secret information. You don't have the right to know now."

"So you can think about it well. There is still plenty of time now. After you finish asking, I also have a few questions I want to ask you about the Setan World." Chen Boshi nodded and replied.

Wang Yu thought for a long time before speaking again:

"Doctor, I want to know if you really come from the future Blue Star? What is the method of travel? Is it a time machine, or some kind of supernatural power? Can this kind of time travel be reproduced?"

If the future Blue Star Alliance could really master time travel at will, then there would be too many problems involved.

Just a time paradox problem alone would probably make many scientists burn their brains.

"Although strictly speaking, this is not one question, it doesn't matter. I can answer it as one question for you. Time travel is very 'high-end' in the scientific community, but for us, it is not something that needs to be kept too secret."

"You are right. I and some people come from the future Blue Star. The method of travel was to borrow some advanced instruments, but it can't be called a time machine, and it's not a supernatural ability, but rather borrowing a 'time wormhole'."

"Regarding the 'time wormhole,' it involves too many systems. I estimate that even if I really explained it, you wouldn't be able to understand it too well."

"I can only tell you that it is like a fixed road, with one end of the channel linked to the future, and one end linked to the Blue Star of your era." Chen Boshi answered Wang Yu earnestly after hesitating slightly.

"Time wormhole."

Wang Yu was greatly surprised. This answer had a not-so-small deviation from his original guess, making him associate it with many things at once.

"This time wormhole is actually very unstable. We took a great risk to successfully travel over last time, and half of the people died during the travel."

"And we, like you, can only travel with consciousness. It's just that your consciousness traveled to other worlds, while our consciousness traveled through time." Chen Boshi explained again.

"Consciousness travel! According to this, what is going on with the Doctor's current body? Were they originally people of our era?" Wang Yu was even more surprised the more he listened. After looking Chen Boshi up and down a few more times, he couldn't help but ask.

"Rest assured, the original owners of these bodies are indeed people of your era. They originally had self-consciousness, but later they all voluntarily gave up their self and handed over their bodies."

"I can't tell you too much about how it was done specifically. You only need to know that we didn't force anyone; it was all these people's own willingness."

"Alright, I have already answered a lot for this question. Now you can ask the last question." Chen Boshi urged after explaining a few sentences.

"I understand. For the next question, I want to ask how much the Doctor knows about the intelligent brain 'Taiyuan'?" Wang Yu suppressed the remaining doubts in his heart, nodded, and asked the last question.
