Did the world end today?

Chapter 295, Second Round

Chapter 295 Second Circle

After finishing the call, Lin Xu left the cafeteria.

I got back to the office at 1 p.m. I rested for half an hour and flirted with Jiang Xingye for half an hour before the tense meeting began.

In fact, the meeting process was not complicated.

It's simply that the country's, and even the world's, top scholars have gathered together to find a direction where they can "make a quick buck" from multiple perspectives, including technology, humanities, and social sciences.

But at the meeting, everyone looked at Lin Xu with a strange expression.

That look in his eyes couldn't be described as complete "admiration".

It should be said that there was a sense of relief mixed with lingering fear.

Luckily, this person is on our side!
Fortunately, this person didn't have any evil intentions!
Fortunately, his thinking is sound!

Lin Xu vaguely understood what the people present meant, but he couldn't explain it or refute it.

What the hell!
I wasn't the one who came up with this plan; it was Zhang Liming!
Yes, I did propose some initial proposals at the meeting, such as "population lifespan planning," "low-consumption entertainment solutions," "mandatory knowledge sharing," and "dismantling of the Earth's ecology." But weren't those just extensions of the proposals that Zhang Liming mentioned before?
The issue of dismantling the Earth's ecosystem has generated a lot of reactions. People feel that breaking down the planet we depend on for survival into functional zones and completely ignoring the impact on the ecological environment is somewhat inhumane.

But the problem is that the concept of Earth itself exists in relation to the three-dimensional world!
If humanity can truly achieve dimensional ascension within 20 years, will Earth still matter?
Perhaps it's only important in a commemorative sense.
So please don't look at me like that!

This is just a technical discussion!

At the meeting, Lin Xu reiterated his views once again. After he firmly expressed his attitude and indicated that he did not intend to apply this plan to the world of Destiny Stones in a radical way, everyone finally felt relieved.

The meeting then entered a period of efficient discussion.

After three hours of discussion, the people in the meeting room finally came up with three preliminary strategies for "coupon hunting" that could be implemented.

"First, following the suggestions made by our colleagues in the biological sciences group and the genetic engineering group, we can try to modify the genes of all humankind to be hypermetabolic."

"By utilizing the hypermetabolic constitution, we can enhance the creativity and productivity of human society in a very short time, and squeeze out the full potential of the human population before 'ascending to a higher dimension' and before the unmanned productive forces complete their self-circulation, thus avoiding the waste of biological productivity by the unmanned productive forces."

"Secondly, following Comrade Lin Xu's suggestion and based on the advice of comrades in the field of environmental science, we can carry out modular transformation and dismantling of the entire Earth's ecology."

"Without considering the deterioration of the Earth's environment, we can consume natural resources such as oceans, forests, and minerals on a large scale to ensure abundant resources to the greatest extent possible and to ensure that the development of productivity is not limited by resources."

"Third, without considering human ethics, we can consider building a global brain network device to accelerate the flow of human information through a distributed network, thereby making up for the shortcomings of incomplete artificial intelligence in terms of creativity and fuzzy filtering capabilities, and further improving the overall computing power level."

"The above is the most feasible and directly rewarding solution that we can summarize at this stage."

"Of course, we will continue to consider other options and keep you updated as they become available."

As the meeting moderator summarized, Lin Xu jotted down the preliminary plan in his notebook.

This is the second source of nourishment he will be investing in the world of bracelets.

If this entry truly brings the world of smart bracelets back to 2025, then this series of combined actions will inevitably lead to a qualitative leap in the productivity of that world.

The only problem is.
Would the officials and people of that world accept such a proposal?

If they don't accept it, how can I persuade them?

This is far beyond the scope of a simple "publicly announced doomsday" strategy.

After all, the idea of "publicly announcing the end of the world" is, in essence, in line with the collective consciousness of that world.

And these acts of "wool-pulling" (taking advantage of loopholes) are somewhat involved.
That defies common sense.

Even if they can accept it, how to implement it is another problem.

However, let them handle this problem.

At least in that world, they had the opportunity to try and fail.

And at least, even if they fail, every attempt they make is meaningful.

After eliminating the wrong answers, the probability of the main world surviving the apocalyptic crisis and rescuing them will increase. With this in mind, Lin Xu calmed himself down.

After the meeting ended, he put away his notebook and returned to his office.

Lying on the sofa, he raised his hand and looked at the bracelet.

At this point, the number on the bracelet had returned to a stable "2".

After gathering his thoughts, he raised his hand and gently touched the bracelet.

The next second, consciousness was instantly drained.

Then, it quickly fell again.
"Lin Xu, do you think the aurora borealis this morning was really a natural phenomenon?"

Jiang Xingye's voice came through.

Lin Xu opened his eyes.

He didn't need to ask the time, because he already knew what time it was.

2025, April 9.

He really did return to that exact point in time!
This proves once again that, under the influence of the limiter, I have begun to enter the key nodes of this world in a certain fixed order.

This is a huge advantage for subsequent "training" work.

However, he didn't have time to think about that now.

He had to explain everything to Jiang Xingye as quickly as possible!
There's no need to deliberately avoid other people anymore, nor is there a need to remind Jiang Xingye to be careful of the influence of the error correctors.

The information I possess is sufficient to convince the world's officials and to get them to act according to the path I have planned.

Lin Xu grabbed Jiang Xingye's hand and said:
"Come with me."

His eyes held an unwavering determination. At this time, Jiang Xingye had not yet experienced the trials and tribulations of the next 19 years, nor was she a strong woman who could remain calm in the face of unexpected situations.

She looked flustered and instinctively tried to struggle.

But Lin Xu did not let go; he simply spoke in as calm a tone as possible:
“ZEROTH”.

“I am ZEROTH.”

"My time is limited, so you must listen carefully to everything I'm about to say."

“I have already passed the baton to you once before this.”

"This is the second handover—or rather, the second lap."

"We'll keep running, but this time, we're going to try something different."

"Wait a moment!"

Jiang Xingye, who was being dragged into the elevator by Lin Xu, suddenly interrupted.

Her voice trembled slightly.

Then she began to speak:
“ZEROTH”

"You are ZEROTH"
