My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 438 Acquaintances Frozen in the Future!

Chu Zhu suddenly stopped, looking around at the fifth underground level of the Hive with some surprise. The fifth underground level was completely different from what he had imagined.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind before he finally asked, "Hive, is there anything you want to say to me?"

“Just as you see!” the Hive whispered. “Father, my fifth underground level is also part of the civilization continuation device!”

At this moment, what came into Chu Zhu's view were one after another 'metal coffins' that exuded a chilling aura.

One, two, three... nearly a hundred?

Chu Zhu walked among these life support devices, silently scanning them.

The life support unit was mostly filled with strangers. But occasionally, a rather familiar face would appear!
Chu Zhu abruptly stopped, staring at one of the coffins in the very center, his eyes surging with intense emotions.

Reaching out, Chu Zhu gently wiped away the frost that had condensed from the ice, gazing at the entity that seemed frozen in time.

"..." Chu Zhu remained silent for a while, her voice becoming slightly hoarse: "Honeycomb, is she Guan Qianyu, or Guan Xinlin?"

"...Who is Guan Xinlin?" Beehive's voice was filled with confusion.

"I see! The future Guan Qianyu." Chu Zhu pursed his lips, and almost without hesitation, said, "Then, unseal everyone present..."

The hive remained silent for a long while before cautiously saying, "I'm very sorry, Father!"

"...What do you mean?" Chu Zhu's brows gradually furrowed.

"You should already realize that I was in a state of slumber before!" The Hive's voice was tinged with bitterness. "Too much, too much time has passed! Due to various accidents, the machine has aged... and it's completely isolated from the outside world! Therefore, it can no longer maintain its own consciousness and control over the entire base... and is simply operating based on a fixed program..."

"Alright, enough with the jargon!" Chu Zhu interrupted Hive, keenly sensing Hive's implication: "You mean, everything's broken and can't be unsealed?"

"No, I should say that most of them have problems..."

"That's good!" Chu Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, meaning there were still some usable options: "Tell me which ones can still be unsealed!"

Immediately afterwards, Chu Zhu looked at the life support devices marked by the Hive that were still usable, and her eyelids twitched. There were only eight machines on site that were still operating normally, which meant that less than one-tenth of them were still in use.

Although Chu Zhu possesses the supernatural ability to repair machines, it is clear that whether the machines are broken or not is not the problem now—the real problem is that the people inside these machines will probably die after the machines break down!

This shows that even Lin Xia's Ice-Sealing Divine Power isn't foolproof.

With a touch of melancholy, Chu Zhu strolled around the machines, finally making a decision after observing the people inside the eight machines: "Alright, let's unseal Guan Qianyu first! And..."

Chu Zhu looked to the other side and added, "Huo Yuan!"

"Command received! Begin execution." The Hive's tone suddenly turned icy. Then, the life support device trembled slightly, and the tubes connected to it began to input some kind of special substance, while seemingly extracting... energy?
"The energy of the Ice Sealing Divine Power?" Chu Zhu pondered.

After a moment of calculation, the Hive provided precise data: "The lockdown is expected to be successfully lifted in one hour and twenty-seven minutes!"

"The Frozen Ones are expected to regain consciousness in two hours and forty-eight minutes!" "Warning!" The Hive's voice suddenly turned serious. "Father, those who have just been unsealed may have some memory loss! They may even have complete amnesia."

"...What?" Chu Zhu's expression changed slightly, but then she sensed something was amiss: "Is there some exception? And this 'possibility'...means it's not absolute?"

If he truly has completely lost his memory, what happened to Lin Xia in the previous timeline? Or is it a problem with the development of his supernatural abilities...? Is Lin Xia in this timeline weaker than the one in the previous timeline?
But didn't he gain experience from the future...? Logically speaking, he should be getting stronger and stronger!

“Yes, the stronger a person is, the more likely they are to retain their memories. And also!” Hive hesitated for a moment, “there’s the special device you created! It can also implant memories.”

"I see." Chu Zhu lowered her eyes, thought it over, and decided to wait.

He sat cross-legged and began his meditation.

Time passes bit by bit.

at last.

With a crisp roar, the two life support devices suddenly activated.

A chill seeped out from it...

Chu Zhu opened her eyes and thoughtfully scanned the two life support devices.

"...Hive, report time!" A slightly weary voice suddenly came from Guan Qianyu's life support device. Guan Qianyu, wearing a white lab coat, struggled to climb out: "This time, it's my turn to maintain it... Ah?!"

Guan Qianyu stared at Chu Zhu in astonishment.

Chu Zhu stared at Guan Qianyu with a strange expression. Didn't the Hive say before that there would be memory loss... No, the subtext of that was that Guan Qianyu was very strong?
A brief silence fell over the scene, and then...

"...Where am I? Mom, Dad..." Huo Yuan's voice rang out, filled with weakness, confusion, disorientation, and fear... There were so many emotions in it.

Guan Qianyu suddenly realized what was happening. She took a deep breath, her eyes reddening slightly, and smiled, "I didn't expect... Well, Lin Xia said this was one of the places you were most likely to end up here!"

Guan Qianyu stepped forward and hugged Chu Zhu tightly. Chu Zhu's body stiffened, not for any other reason... but because Guan Qianyu was as cold as ice, making him instinctively shiver. As for any ambiguity, he felt absolutely nothing!

Guan Qianyu quickly left, walked to the other side, and took Huo Yuan out of the opened life support device. She gently pressed on Huo Yuan's neck, and Huo Yuan immediately fainted.

Guan Qianyu then reached out and touched Huo Yuan's forehead, silently sensing for a moment before sighing, "She's not feeling well..."

"Specifically?" Chu Zhu walked to Guan Qianyu's side.

"According to my supernatural ability: gene modification retrieval information, she currently only retains the memories of a three-year-old child!" Guan Qianyu rubbed her temples, feeling a slight headache. "However, by tomorrow we should be able to determine whether this is temporary or permanent damage! It's most likely temporary... after all, her strength is quite remarkable!"

“But… since I can still see you,” Guan Qianyu turned to gaze at Chu Zhu, her expression momentarily dazed, her voice filled with countless emotions, “three thousand years have passed… how could I have survived until now?”

Taking a deep breath, Miss Guan smiled brightly: "But thankfully, I finally got to see you!"
