"Nami, you're from the future, right?"
"Yes, Master, I am from the year 2029."
Hearing Nami's response, Chen Ye nodded, "Very good. I plan to go to 2029. You should have a way to send me there, right?"
In the fifth installment of the *Terminator* series, even a T-800 could create a time machine to send the protagonists to the future. There's no reason the T-1000 couldn't do the same.
Nami replied calmly, "Yes, it is possible by building a time displacement device."
"Exactly, that's what I need!"
Chen Ye immediately smiled and asked, "Nami, how long would it take to build a time displacement device?"
"If we have sufficient materials, within 24 hours."
Chen Ye was pleased, "Great, let's go find the materials!"
"Master, I must remind you that the technology to control displacement circuits doesn't exist in this era. We need a future central processor to make it work," Nami explained.
Chen Ye felt a bit of a headache, "I don't understand what you're talking about. I'll find you some help!"
As he finished speaking, Chen Ye took out the AllSpark and used it on a nearby car.
Very soon.
A Transformer was born.
"Master, Unit Zero is at your service!"
Seeing the huge Transformer emerge, Nami remained expressionless.
Her programming didn't include the concept of "fear."
Chen Ye didn't bother giving the hulking figure a name and said, "Unit Zero, this is Nami. Your task from now on is to assist her, help her gather materials, and construct the time displacement device."
"Understood, Master!"
...
In the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
In an underground basement.
Chen Ye was leisurely leaning back on a sofa, watching TV.
Not far from him, Nami was busy working.
The time displacement device was almost fully constructed by Nami, just missing a few materials for completion.
Building the time displacement device wasn't the hard part; collecting the materials was!
Such high-tech equipment required highly precise components.
Fortunately, Chen Ye had the assistance of a Transformer!
Over the past week, he had maxed out his credit card's one hundred million dollar limit.
Anything that could be bought was bought, and anything that couldn't be bought was stolen!
Currently, Chen Ye had become a wanted man by the US government...
Compared to the commotion caused by other reincarnators, Chen Ye's actions were nothing.
During this period, the reincarnators often fought Terminator robots, causing significant damage to human cities.
For example, the news currently playing on the TV was related to these reincarnators.
"...Last night at 9 PM, a group of terrorists attacked the Glendale Theater in Los Angeles. This is already the 17th terrorist attack this month, all happening in Los Angeles. The incident has drawn significant attention from the White House, and the government has decided to deploy Marines to Los Angeles to eliminate the terrorists..."
On the TV, the news anchor was speaking fluently.
The "terrorists" he referred to were, of course, the reincarnators and those Terminators.
Hearing the news, Chen Ye was a bit surprised.
The White House is getting involved too?
Now, the reincarnators might be in trouble, right?
Although those special forces are no match for B-level reincarnators, some military weapons are not to be underestimated.
Like nuclear weapons!
Even the current Chen Ye couldn't withstand that...
"No wonder this mission is classified as a difficult level by the system. Turns out, the government is involved as well."
Chen Ye smiled faintly.
Luckily, his plan was to head to the future.
No matter how things turned out now, it wouldn't concern him.
"Vroom! Vroom!"
The sound of a car engine came from outside.
Then came the sound of "ka-cha! ka-cha!" — the sound of transformation.
The next moment, the basement door was opened, and the Transformer bent over and entered.
This basement had been rented by Chen Ye. It was originally intended to be a small parking lot, so it was spacious enough inside.
The Transformer, holding a pile of electronic components, came to Nami's side.
Nami picked through the components, selecting suitable ones and installing them on the time displacement device.
The two robots worked together seamlessly, leaving Chen Ye with nothing to worry about.
An hour later.
Nami approached Chen Ye.
"Master, the time displacement device is complete."
"Oh?"
Chen Ye immediately stood up from the sofa and quickly walked over to the time displacement device.
The time displacement device created by Nami looked almost exactly like the one from the movie; it appeared somewhat rudimentary.
"This thing?"
Chen Ye asked with some concern, "Nami, if something goes wrong during the teleportation process, what will happen to me?"
Nami replied honestly, "Master, there is a high probability that your body would be torn apart by the magnetic forces of the quantum field. If you are lucky enough to survive, you could end up caught in a time flux, appearing at an unknown time point."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ye frowned deeply.
He knew that time travel was risky, but the potential consequences were quite severe...
"What's the success rate?"
"Rest assured, Master. After my calculations, the probability of failure is less than 15%!"
So, an 85% success rate?
That's a risk worth taking.
...But Chen Ye still cautiously asked, "Can we test it on someone else first?"
"I do not recommend doing that, Master," Nami replied. "Activating the time displacement device consumes a large amount of energy, which would fry some of its circuits and disrupt most of Los Angeles's power grid…"
Chen Ye understood and frowned, "So, it can only be used once?"
"Yes, Master."
Chen Ye was speechless.
He would have to do it himself...
"Nami, is there anything else I should be aware of? Tell me everything."
Nami calmly said, "During the time travel process, it's best not to wear any clothes, and you should not have any metal on your body. The magnetic forces of the quantum field can react with metal, causing quantum reactions that might destroy the time displacement device and lead to severe consequences."
Chen Ye nodded upon hearing this and couldn't help but glance at Transformer Unit Zero.
It was clear that he couldn't take Unit Zero with him.
As for Nami, she could simulate human skin to insulate her internal electronic components without any issues.
That's exactly how the T-1000 traveled from the future.
Chen Ye began preparing for the time travel.
As for Transformer Unit Zero, Chen Ye had ordered it to destroy everything in the basement after he and Nami left, then find a place to hide and avoid being discovered by anyone.
In 2029, it was to come out and find him!
Afterward, Chen Ye undressed and embraced Nami, standing on the platform of the time displacement device.
Once Chen Ye was ready, Unit Zero pressed the start button...
"Vroom! Vroom! Vroom…"
A loud noise erupted, and the time displacement device generated a massive burst of electric light, enveloping Chen Ye and Nami.
Moments later, Chen Ye and Nami vanished together...
Seeing his master disappear, Transformer Unit Zero followed Chen Ye's command, destroying everything in the basement before leaving the area.
...
The year 2029.
On a desolate street, not a single person was in sight.
The once towering buildings were now dilapidated, reduced to ruins.
Cars on the roadside were rusted beyond recognition.
The air was filled with swirling dust and dirt, polluted and murky.
The entire world resembled a desolate hell.
A filthy young girl suddenly ran out into the street, scavenging through piles of garbage, hoping to find some dead rats.
She hadn't eaten in days.
At that moment.
A fierce wind suddenly began to blow nearby, and numerous electric arcs appeared out of nowhere, flickering like a nest of snakes, eerily strange.
Moments later.
The surrounding space distorted, a wormhole in time and space opened, and two people were transported through.
A man and a woman!
