Wandering Fleet

July, Xia Kingdom, Donghua City.

The scorching sun blazed down without a hint of breeze, causing sweat to drip incessantly from people's bodies. Two young people were discussing something at the foot of the mountain.

"We've come all this way, we should at least climb up and take a look."

The other person quickly refused: "It's too tiring. If it weren't for this damn task, I'd rather stay at home and enjoy the air conditioning!"

"Well then...I'll go up alone!"

The sunlight filtered through the dense layers of leaves, casting a pattern of coin-sized spots on the ground. The soil underfoot was genuine yellow earth, thick and solid. No matter how much he jumped around, Zhang Yuan didn't have to worry about collapsing the mountain peak. The oxygen he breathed in his lungs was the raw product of plant photosynthesis.

"Home planet is still better!"

When Zhang Yuan climbed to the top of the mountain, it was exactly 6 o'clock in the evening. He sat panting on a rock and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Few lunatics were like him, climbing a high mountain just to watch a sunset, especially in this hottest season.

The sun set slowly, and the clouds on the horizon were bright red. Several birds flew by, chirping and calling freely and leisurely. All these were beautiful scenes that did not exist in space.

"Only 30 days left?"

Zhang Yuan sighed and opened the memo on his phone, checking off the item "Witness a sunset with my own eyes."

The screen displayed the three words "Completed as planned."

Zhang Yuan was a bit confused whether he was on vacation or on a mission assigned by his superiors.

The strange memo included many small things, such as "Enjoy a fancy meal," "Climb a high mountain," "Get caught in the rain," "Watch a sunset," "Run a marathon," and so on.

It was a mishmash of almost everything.

The memo was designed one-on-one by the medical artificial intelligence "Green Elf" after collecting personal data.

In the words of an expert, it was "to allow them to leave without any regrets and reduce the probability of mental illness along the way!"

Well, in plain language.

Zhang Yuan did not have any serious illnesses, suicidal tendencies, or the desire to "run away with his sister-in-law with a debt of one billion yuan."

The so-called "leaving" referred to leaving the Earth, leaving the solar system, and boarding the "Earth Epoch" spaceship to travel to the Gliese 581g planet 20.3 light-years away for interstellar colonization!

20.3 light-years!

Anyone with even a little knowledge of space knows that this is a true astronomical number.

The long journey, at one-seventh the speed of light, would take approximately... 3,000 years!

Humanity has been preparing for this deep space colonization for a very long time. The stellar spacecraft "Earth Era" and 500,000 carefully selected volunteers from all walks of life will bear the responsibility of restarting civilization on "Gliese 581g".

However, no matter how well-prepared they are, a 3,000-year interstellar journey is still an unprecedented expedition for humanity, and no one can guarantee its success rate.

Therefore, based on humanitarian concerns, almost all volunteers take a long vacation after completing their space skills training to experience the last moments on Earth...

For these reasons, Zhang Yuan is enjoying the last month of his vacation.

"Three thousand years, what kind of civilization will Earth have developed into by then?"

"It must be very, very powerful..."

"Maybe later spaceships will catch up with our first colonial ship!"

Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and imagined a bright future for humanity. The thought of them becoming pioneers in history filled him with great ambition.

The sun gradually set...

Just as he was descending from the mountain, a young man with wheat-colored skin wiped the sweat from his face and ran over quickly.

His name was Li Zhendong, and like Zhang Yuan, he was one of the astronauts who would soon leave the solar system.

Li Zhendong was not as heat-resistant as Zhang Yuan. Even without climbing the mountain, his whole body was sweating profusely as if he had just been pulled out of water.

He fanned his face with his hand while complaining, "I knew it, you can see the sunset from the foot of the mountain, why did you have to climb up? What kind of bullshit memo is this? Shouldn't watching the sunset be something that old people do?"

Zhang Yuan, also feeling extremely hot, shook his head and said, "Okay, okay, let's do what we can. Things that seem annoying and troublesome now might become beautiful memories in the future."

He looked towards the horizon, filled with fiery clouds, "After all, except for being reincarnated, we seem to have no other way to return to the solar system. This is a one-way ticket, there is no regret medicine."

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alright, this one has been successfully completed. Let me take a look at what the next memo is

Finger a little, I see the next item in the memo is

Find a girl you like and become a true man

What?

Zhang Yuan's heart jumped and cursed the artificial intelligence person who made the memo for having a hole in his brain!

What kind of psychological counseling is this? He only has one month left on vacation, what kind of love is he going to have?

There is also a small line of characters given by the "Green Elf" behind it, explaining the reason for formulating this memo: "Women are the best teacher for men and the spiritual pillar in the depths of their hearts. Deep space sailing is lonely and lonely, Mr. Zhang Yuan, considering that you have not yet

Without time to take a closer look, he quickly clicked the screen again with his fingers, attempting to scroll to the next one.

Unexpectedly, Li Zhendong's eyes were sharp and he glanced at the words on Zhang Yuan's phone, as if he had discovered a new continent.

Wow haha! Zhang Yuan, you're still an old maid, haven't you ever been in love

What a shame, what a shame

The cheerful laughter even triggered frequent glances from passersby.

Artificial intelligence "Green Elf", as a medical AI that has been developed for over 50 years, has served billions of people with extremely high analysis accuracy and a positive review rate of 61.69%.

Okay, this positive rating, when placed in the harsh healthcare system, is indeed not low anymore.

Since Zhang Yuan's memo says' become a real man ', then he must still be an old maid, so there's no way he can run away!

Shut up, shut up quickly! "Zhang Yuan's face burned and he felt a bit embarrassed.

It's already the 23rd century, and phrases like 'early love is wrong' have long been swept into the garbage heap of history. High school romance is everywhere, and teachers don't care at all. They just educate students to take contraceptive measures and not just talk about sex without love.

Many college students have had romantic relationships more than they can count.

People like Zhang Yuan, who have lived for 23 years but have not yet had sex, are easily perceived as having a series of physiological problems that are difficult to express in words.

I've been in love n times, okay? "Li Zhendong boasted while laughing.

He stretched out his fingers and swayed them in front of Zhang Yuan, as if to indicate the number of times he had sex with girls.

Seeing Li Zhendong's' you can't do it 'look, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but retort,' What are you thinking? I've also been in love in high school! '

He flipped out a photo from a long, long time ago on his phone and said, "Look, you see, this is my high school date. Isn't it very soft and cute

Li Zhendong looked at it and it was really a photo of Yuan and a girl taking a group photo. The two were snuggling intimately, smiling happily in front of the camera.

Is your sister okay... isn't it your own sister

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but say, "Please, where did I get my own sister

And then what

... I broke up after graduation, it's all for various reasons

It's really boring

Li Zhendong seemed to have something in mind: "If you really have any indescribable diseases, you need to go for treatment as soon as possible. On board the spaceship, there are only a few poor artificial intelligence doctors, and there are not so many experts in treating infertility

Get lost, I'm doing great! "Zhang Yuan kicked him over, but Li Zhendong cleverly dodged him.

Something else, let's go first

Zhang Yuan quickly walked up to an electric car and got in.

The left turn signal of the electric vehicle flickers and starts slowly.

Bye

Li Zhendong breathed a long sigh of relief as he watched the white car leave.

He licked his lips, squinted his eyes, and looked around as if he were a thief.

Carefully open your own memo.

His body trembled violently!

I saw several identical big words written on the memo: "Find a girl who likes you and become a true man

Damn it, it's really... artificial intelligence disability! "Li Zhendong murmured
