My Dream Connects to 3000 Years in the Future

But then again... it was so similar. Just too similar!

’History really does have a sense of inertia! Even if it’s been changed beyond recognition, in these little details...’

Chu Bamboo shook his head and continued to ask, ”So where are they now?”

”Out hunting!”

Only then did Chu Bamboo realize what this implied. Their clothes would be in tatters, looking more like they had been patched together from animal hides.

’Even Ning Linglong’s defining feature—her black stockings—was gone!’

They were just like primitive people. ’Wait... in this timeline, was human civilization just completely wiped out?’

”Then why are my clothes still normal?” Chu Bamboo found it hard to understand.

”Wait a minute.” A sudden realization struck Chu Bamboo. ”Nuwa No. 17, if they went out hunting, then what was the deal with those vines from before?”

”Even if Li Kang and the others retained their power from the previous timeline, it probably wouldn’t be easy for them to fight those vines, right? And if they really did win, why are the vines still at the door?”

”Searching for information. No information available!”

Chu Bamboo: ”...”

’Right, I guess I can’t expect a Nuwa No. 17 that was just activated yesterday to know this era like the back of its hand.’

”Can you connect to any camera equipment from the Modern Era? Can you transmit external information in here?”

”Commencing search. No accessible connections detected! Attempting to activate the gate camera. Gate camera confirmed to be damaged...”

Chu Bamboo: ”...”

He sat down cross-legged, tapping his fingers gently on the silver floor as he gradually sorted out his thoughts. ”Nuwa No. 17, give me a brief introduction... about myself!”

The next moment, a screen of light projected before him.

”Initiating deep analysis... Name: Chu Bamboo. Authority Level: Permanent Level 4. Titles: The 21st Century’s Greatest Executioner of Humanity! World Ender! Genocider of the Human Race! Creator of the Nascent Celestial Net! Traitor to Earthlings!”

Chu Bamboo: ”???”

’That scared the hell out of me!’

’What have I gotten myself into? Is this even Earth anymore?’

’Wait!’

”Permanent Level 4 Authority!” Chu Bamboo sucked in a cold breath, a look of pleasant surprise on his face. Although those titles were appalling, this Authority level... was far higher than he could have ever imagined!

Becoming a ’World Flyer’ only got you to Level 1!

’This Permanent Level 4... just what kind of top-tier bigwig do you have to be to get that?’

”Then again!” Chu Bamboo thought, trying to find some humor in his grim situation. ’If my status wasn’t high enough, I wouldn’t be able to carry the blame for things like ’Traitor to Earthlings’ and ’World Ender’!’

”Nuwa No. 17, tell me the Immortal Cultivation Technique and the Body Refining Technique!” Chu Bamboo rubbed his hands together. ’Fortune and misfortune are two sides of the same coin! No matter what, with Permanent Level 4 Authority—in this timeline, the advantage is mine!’

”Commencing self-check. The two Dharma Gates mentioned by the Authority have not been detected! Initiating deep analysis. Does the Authority wish to create a set of Cultivation Techniques based on database information, suitable for inclusion in a novel? Commencing search of ’Tao Te Ching,’ ’Holy Bible’...”

”Okay, okay, stop, stop!” Chu Bamboo cut Nuwa off. He was getting a real headache.

’But looking at it from this angle... I can basically confirm that it wasn’t the human civilization of the Real World that created the nuclear radiation Cultivation Method!’

Chu Bamboo pondered. ’Those two Cultivation Techniques must have been created by the Dream World civilization from the previous timeline.’

’Because the Dream World civilization was highly dependent on the Nuwa AI from the very beginning, allowing Nuwa to collect a massive amount of information about the Dream World civilization... that’s why the Nuwa No. 17 from back then had the Cultivation Methods in its database.’

’And now.’

’Is this Nuwa No. 17, restarted by me for the first time, a complete blank slate in that regard... or is it?’

”That’s not right!” It dawned on him belatedly. ’If I really did hand over the prescription in the Real World, how could the Nuwa database not have any data on it?’

”Nuwa No. 17, please search for a specific Cultivation Technique based on my following description...” Chu Bamboo pursed his lips and began to seriously list one medicinal ingredient after another.

”Scan complete. Confirmed: This is the nuclear radiation Purification prescription popularized by the 21st Century’s Greatest Executioner of Humanity!”

”Prescription Effects: After direct exposure to ultra-high-intensity nuclear radiation, strictly undergoing the harsh baptism and Purification of this prescription within ten minutes will increase the three-week survival rate for humans from nearly zero to seventy-two percent!”

”It can effectively reduce the cancer risk caused by radiation!”

”It can mitigate the after-effects of radiation to an acceptable level!”

”One percent of the population may complete a mutation through this process, gaining a significant increase in physical constitution! However, this group faces a ●● risk.”

”It really exists!” Chu Bamboo’s face filled with anticipation, but he also glanced at the risk with some confusion. ’What is this blacked-out part? Contamination risk? Something doesn’t feel quite right...’

Unable to figure it out, Chu Bamboo pushed aside his messy thoughts and continued, ”List all the ingredients again! And as a supplement, are there any subsequently developed prescriptions...”

One familiar name after another was recited!

Those were, surprisingly, the thirty-three ingredients Chu Bamboo had previously matched using the AI in the Real World. The four that followed were—

Corpse-Scented Amaryllis!

Chu Bamboo: ”...Huh?!”

Chu Bamboo listened with a stunned expression as Nuwa gave its detailed analysis: The Corpse-Scented Amaryllis is recorded in the ’Records of the Ten Islands in the Sea’. Legend says its ground-up rhizome powder can ward off ”Poisonous Qi.” Daoist masters from the Western Regions once used it in combination with Lead Oxide to create Radiation-Resistant Talismans.

The second was a secret medicine from the Song Dynasty, the Taiyin Profound Essence Stone.

It comes from the ’Classified Materia Medica’. This mineral-based medicine must be collected at the Zi hour on the winter solstice. The ancients believed it could ”suppress the changes of the five movements and six qi.” In ancient times, Daoists used it mixed with Black Dog Blood, applying it to the fontanelle and claiming it could resist ”terrestrial radiation.”

The next one was the Antitoxic Tai Sui. Described in the Ming Dynasty’s ’Sea Creatures Map’, it’s a submarine plant that must be decocted with Dragon’s Saliva Fragrance and Whale Bone Powder. Legend says that Zheng He’s fleet used it to soak ship timber to resist the ”poisonous miasma of Nanyang.” According to modern genetic testing, it contains an unknown alkaloid!

The last one was Moon Grass. This final one... had almost no explanation.

”...I finally understand why the AI couldn’t screen for these.” Chu Bamboo didn’t know what kind of expression to make. ’If the AI could find these, that would be truly bizarre!’

’In fact, looking at these names, my first reaction is: These things actually exist? A lot of these ingredients sound like they belong in a fantasy or xianxia novel...’

’No, it’s one thing for them to exist... but they actually work against radiation?’

”Alright, Nuwa No. 17, let’s put the previous ones aside for now. What’s the deal with the last one, Moon Grass?”

”Checking Authority! Authority confirmed sufficient! Commencing decryption... Please proceed with verification, Authority.”

Chu Bamboo: ”...”

’Great, another ridiculously tedious five-minute verification process!’

”Moon Grass, a special plant cultivated on the Moon! The raw material for its mutation is—

Inca Blood Purifying Grass (Manayupa).

Production Process: Plant the Inca Blood Purifying Grass inside the Moon’s Darwin Moon Stream.

The Darwin Moon Stream is located on the near side of the Moon, with its central geographical coordinates at 19.3° S, 69.5° W.

After being planted there, it can be turned into Moon Grass through genetic screening and gene editing.

After a successful mutation, Moon Grass can be transplanted back to Earth. It must not be exposed to sunlight and can only bathe in moonlight at night! It matures after seven-times-seven, forty-nine days. It can be propagated by cutting and planting its roots.

The following is the genetic sequence for Moon Grass. After transplanting the Inca Blood Purifying Grass to the Moon, please follow the operating manual strictly to perform gene editing: ...”
