Chapter 1659 Every Second About the Future Is Yesterday's Science Fiction

Before he had time to react, a gust of fragrant wind crashed into his arms.

Lu Zhou was a little confused by the sudden hug, and his movements were a little stiff, as if he was hesitating where to put his hands.

But fortunately, Vera, who suddenly jumped into his arms, seemed to realize how embarrassing her behavior was, so she blushed and quickly separated from him.

Looking anxiously at Lu Zhou, whose face was full of surprise, Vera whispered.

"... I miss you so much, so I came to see you... Can't I?"

"Why can't it be, it's just that you come to such a far place alone... Have you ever made a space shuttle before?"

Looking at Lu Zhou, whose face was full of worry, Vera shook her head slightly.

"No...but Xiaoai and I are very worried about you."

Looking at Vera who was worried about him in turn, Lu Zhou couldn't help but say, "Why worry about me, I'm such an adult, I can't take care of others, but it's okay to take care of myself."

"That's hard to say..." Vera murmured softly, "I heard about it from Xiao Ai. You were a lot of trouble 100 years ago."

Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou couldn't help showing a shameful expression on his face.

Xiao Ai, this guy...

It's okay to say what this kind of thing does.

Just when Anderina was about to record this touching moment, a soft cough came from beside her.

"Taking photos is prohibited here."

Startled by the sudden voice, Anderina turned around, only to see a strange man standing next to her at some point, as if he was on guard for something.

"I didn't mean anything malicious, just a little surprised...Sorry, I can't help but say that it was my fault for taking out the camera."

Seeing Andelina's sincere apology, Wang Peng nodded without saying anything.

At this time, Lu Zhou also noticed the movement here, so he looked over here.

"Excuse me, are you..."

"I, I am..." Anderina was about to introduce herself, but because she was a little too excited to meet her idol, her voice became incoherent.

Fortunately, Vera, who was standing next to Lu Zhou, helped her out, and the kind-hearted little girl smiled and said.

"Her name is Anderina, and she is a reporter from Le Monde. We met on the road. Thanks to her help, I got here safely."

After listening to Vera's introduction, Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully, looked at Ms. Anderina with a slight smile, and said in a friendly manner.

"Thank you for taking care of her along the way."

"No, no, actually I didn't help much," Anderina said with a little shame as she blushed and waved her hands, "I'm truly ashamed of you thanking me so much."

"Haha, please don't be so polite." Looking at the embarrassed expression on her face, Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "It seems that you should have a lot of things to ask me."

Anderina nodded honestly.

"Yes... I came to Mars this time mainly to interview you. It's just that I haven't figured out how to speak yet."

"It would be great if every reporter could be like you, with less routine and more sincerity," Lu Zhou looked at Vera standing aside, and said softly, "After two weeks of flying, you are also tired. Come on, hurry up and go to rest. I will ask Ling to take you to the room in a while, and leave the luggage to it."

"Hmm..." Looking at Lu Zhou nervously, Vera whispered with a worried expression, "Did I cause you trouble?"

"How could it be?" Reaching out and rubbing her hair, Lu Zhou smiled and said, "I made you worry."

After sending away the flushed Vera, Lu Zhou then looked at Anderina who pretended not to see anything, thought for a while and continued.

"The timing is really a coincidence. I just happened to be going to the laboratory of East Asia Heavy Industries."

Hearing these words, Anderina said hastily.

"It's okay, it's okay, everything depends on your time, I can do it anytime!"

"How about that, anyone's time is equally precious," Lu Zhou shook his head and continued, "Well, come with us."

"Eh?" Anderina was slightly taken aback, "Is this... really okay?"

"It's nothing good or bad," Lu Zhou said with a faint smile, "I would be happy if I could learn my skills just by looking at it."

Said, Lu Zhou saw Wang Peng, nodded and said.

"let's go."

Before coming to Tiangong City, Andelina had been struggling with how to interview Lu Zhou, but she never expected that she would finally get the interview opportunity in this way.

In order to show her sincerity, she took the initiative to turn off her camera and interview drone and hand them over to the man who looked like a bodyguard.

Regarding Anderina's initiative to show his favor, Wang Peng nodded, but he didn't express much.

Soon, the three of them came to the industrial area in a magnetic levitation car.

In a rather large workshop, Anderina saw a huge metal ring.

I saw that the silver-white metal ring was covered with complex equipment, like a product of some kind of cyberpunk art, stacking the complex aesthetics to the extreme.

After staring at it for a while, Anderina finally couldn't help but ask.

"……This is."

"Stargate," he stopped and looked up at the huge ring. Lu Zhou smiled and continued, "The starting point of the hyperspace passage...Of course, it can also be the end point."

Noticing that Wang Peng was looking at him, Lu Zhou smiled at him, indicating that he should not be nervous, "It's okay, anyway, I will start testing this equipment soon, and there will be a press conference in a while, It's okay to make it public now, and I also have my plans... So let's get down to business, Ms. Anderina, I know you probably have a lot of questions to ask."

Seeing that Lu Zhou suddenly turned the topic to herself, Anderina was slightly taken aback, then quickly nodded and said.

"I heard that many scholars commented that once superluminal technology is integrated into our society, it will bring about earth-shaking changes to our society... It is not even an exaggeration to say that we will enter a new era because of this."

"It can be said," Lu Zhou nodded and admitted her statement, "By maintaining a stable open hyperspace channel, even without a warp drive, ordinary spaceships can use star gates to achieve hyperspace transitions. The distance across astronomical units in a very short time. And this is not just the exchange of matter, but also information.”

Anderina: "...Is this your expectation for the future?"

"Well," Lu Zhou said with a smile, "but I can feel that this day is not far away."

"At that time, not just matter and information, but all of us... from the distant Antarctica, to the Kuiper belt a few astronomical units away, whether it is the earth or the Martians, we will be connected as a whole. And for us , other creatures in the Milky Way will name me with a unified name."

"That is, human civilization."

Shocked by the future described by Lu Zhou, Anderina showed an expression of disbelief on her face.

After a while, she opened her mouth like a dream.

"Sounds...like a work of science fiction."

"Compared to yesterday, every second we experienced is science fiction, let alone tomorrow," Lu Zhou continued with a slight smile on his face, watching her, "Compared to pale words, I I hope you can use something I don't understand to convey this shock."

Clearing his throat, he continued.

"Then, Ms. Anderina, I wonder if you are interested in participating in the 'first access' ceremony of our star gate?"
