"Hey! How much longer! I feel like I'm about to die."
Li Yi asked feebly.
When he said this, he meant it sincerely. The body of Li Jingze, a senior researcher at the National Defense Agency, was nothing compared to his original body.
Even compared with an ordinary person, it is still a bit difficult. The reason why he walked in the wilderness for so long without falling down was largely due to the fact that No. 3 would carry him up and walk for a while from time to time.
But since No. 3 became obsessed with the puzzle that he couldn't solve, he couldn't enjoy this kind of treatment.
In contrast, Li Yi also felt that this body was almost reaching its limit.
Ever since negotiating with the mastermind, the mistress in No. 3's mouth, No. 3, who claims to know everything except the mastermind, has fallen into some deep self-doubt.
Perhaps it was because witnessing Li Yi's conversation with the mastermind was completely beyond his own cognitive scope, or perhaps because it would take some time for such expansion of cognitive scope.
In short, his attitude towards Li Yi has gradually changed from disdain at the beginning to someone he needs to look up to.
Although Li Yi often doesn't know what this guy with amazing computing power is thinking in his intelligent program, it does not prevent him from taking advantage of the benefits brought by this change from contempt to admiration.
Although this benefit is just a ride when he is exhausted, or a meal outdoors.
But compared to the previous treatment, it was much better.
Seeing that No. 3 paid no attention to him, Li Yi couldn't help but wailed.
"You should give me a sure idea of how long it will take for us to arrive!"
"If I keep going like this, I'll die before we get there!"
"Hey! Did you hear what I said?"
Finally, amid Li Yi's endless calls, No. 3 finally woke up from his intoxicated thoughts and looked at Li Yi's helpless face with a puzzled look.
"What did you say?"
"..."
"I said." Li Yi repeated weakly, "When can I get there? I have to walk until I die."
"oh."
No. 3 nodded calmly, pointed in the direction with his hand and said.
"It's right there and we can reach our destination at any time."
"I said we still have... Huh? What did you just say?" Li Yi said and was stunned. He suspected that he had heard wrong and asked again.
"I said, we can reach our destination at any time."
"...What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean you can arrive at any time? Wait...you're not talking about teleportation, are you?"
Li Yi was stunned for a while and quickly realized what No. 3 meant.
Only then did No. 3 turn around and give him a positive nod.
"That's right, it's teleportation."
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up! I want to rest, I want to eat and drink, and I want to have a good night's sleep." Li Yi couldn't wait after hearing this. He finally understood what a body that ordinary people have is not as good as everyone's. How tortured.
This made him, who was already familiar with extraordinary powers, feel like he had gone from being well-dressed and well-fed to becoming a beggar.
It is indeed difficult to go from extravagance to frugality!
Unexpectedly, when No. 3 heard him say this, he shook his head and said no.
"No, now is not the time. The time will come when the time comes."
"What is the right time? Since now is not the time, the portal will not run away. Can't we sit down and rest?"
"Can't."
"...What kind of bullshit is this?"
Hearing this, No. 3 stopped for a rare moment. After a while, he took another step forward. Perhaps he felt that Li Yi's steps were shaky and he looked like he was about to die. He even "caringly" supported him. One of his arms.
"In the past, it would have been no problem even if I carried you on my back, but that's not possible now, because I have to be in peak condition at all times when I walked in. As for you saying to stop, that's even more impossible."
Having said this, he glanced at Li Yi who was confused and continued.
"Perhaps you have heard of a famous mythical beast?"
"Mythical beast? Just teleport, what kind of mythical beast are you talking to me about?"
"That mythical beast is called Schrödinger's cat."
"...? What do you mean... Oh! I understand. You are saying that if you go in at this time, you still don't know where to teleport to. Only when the right time comes, we will teleport to the desired location. ?”
Hearing this, No. 3 gave a rare compliment.
"I didn't expect you to think of this. Not bad."
"Then here's the problem." With the "help" of a hand, Li Yi also took a rare break and continued.
"Then here's the problem. According to the mastermind...that is, the mistress in your mouth, we went there this time to quell a dispute. But except for you who have some fighting ability, I don't have any fighting ability, so I went there. Just to be a witness?"
Hearing this, No. 3 showed a strange smile, but did not answer directly.
"When the time comes, you will naturally know."
No. 3's answer not only failed to make Li Yi understand, but made him even more confused.
Although he could roughly guess the connection between the so-called portal and "Schrödinger's Cat", he didn't know the specifics and couldn't make a judgment.
But looking at the expression on No. 3's face, he suddenly understood most of it. Although he couldn't understand it, he also knew that this was the only way.
In desperation, I had to ask.
"So we just keep walking here?"
Number 3's answer was surprisingly different from the past, and seemed very concise.
"right."
"Don't you want to say anything more to me?"
"I really want to say it, but I'm afraid you don't understand." No. 3 glanced at Li Yi. For some reason, the disdain in his eyes that had not appeared in a long time was revealed unconsciously, and Li Yi was shocked. I felt suffocated for a while and almost cursed.
However, this expression disappeared after just a moment, and then the expression on No. 3's face returned to the familiar look of looking up. The emotional change during this period was so rapid that people were unexpected.
It was like the expression on No. 3's face when Li Yi was discussing the plan with the mastermind.
"Yes, yes, that's the expression. I like to see it. Please do it more."
Hearing Li Yi's slightly excited tone, the expression on No. 3's face did not change much, but the enthusiasm in his eyes was slightly reduced.
It's an expression of emotion that you can't tell what it means.
It's like a certain emotional belief suddenly disappears a lot, for example, it's like years of fanatical belief.
After truly meeting the "god" I believe in, there is a huge sense of gap.
This feeling immediately made Li Yi feel a little ridiculous.
Logically speaking, this feeling would not appear on No. 3!
This guy looks pretentious. He was given the only special ability by the mastermind right after he was created. Even the omnics from the same batch as him, this guy looks like he is looking at people through his nostrils.
Not to mention that he is just a mere human being.
Except for his status as a time traveler (which is doubtful), Li Yi asked himself that he didn't have any abilities or qualifications that he could show off, so at first, although he was a little unhappy with No. 3's attitude towards him, he didn't really care.
But the expression on the other person's face was obviously not what he thought he was.
Looking at No. 3's back, Li Yi suddenly had a feeling.
Things... seemed to be starting to develop in a direction that I had never imagined.
