My Dream Connects to 3000 Years in the Future

Opening his eyes again, Chu Bamboo expertly swept his gaze over his surroundings. It was still the forest-like Ecological Garden.

“Nuwa No. 17!” Chu Bamboo said, cutting straight to the point. Hearing Nuwa No. 17’s response, he immediately confirmed that this world line had a Nuwa No. 17… and consequently, that in this world line, Lin Xin Bamboo was already dead.

His mind raced, and Chu Bamboo continued as a matter of course, “Show me the outside world!”

A screen of light materialized, and Chu Bamboo calmly scanned the various scenes it displayed.

Towering skyscrapers stood upon the earth, yet they didn’t seem cold. Trees grew upon them, blending nature and industrial steel architecture in a harmonious combination… At first glance, the sight was incredibly pleasant.

“The ecological memory buildings were preserved,” Chu Bamboo murmured. These so-called ecological memory buildings were a product of the Third Genetic Revolution, designed to give the steel structures themselves certain life-like properties—

After sustaining damage, the buildings could self-repair, just like living organisms. Over time, they would absorb sunlight and slowly mend any internal damage, allowing them to endure for three thousand years.

Then, Chu Bamboo swiped his finger, and the ethereal surveillance sensors scattered throughout the city displayed one scene after another.

‘I’m back on the Daqian Line!’ Chu Bamboo watched Eunuch Huang and the others still blocking the entrance, nodding slightly as a nostalgic glint appeared in his eyes.

Compared to the god-like figures of the Human Empire, even an enemy like Eunuch Huang seemed almost respectable now.

“Nuwa No. 17, do your records show any activity from Lin Xia in this civilization?”

“None.”

“I see. Then I won’t look for the Big Orange Cat for now.” Chu Bamboo nodded slightly. Having reset numerous times over the past five world lines, he was now basically working from a script.

Lin Xia being active in the current civilization was almost certainly tied to the Big Orange Cat’s presence.

At the same time, to ensure the current world line remained the Daqian Line, the number of people sent to support the future couldn’t be too large—no more than ten in total. Furthermore, these ten people had to be restricted. Even after arriving in the future, they could not be allowed to recklessly spread the knowledge they gained from the previous civilization or interfere without restraint.

Such actions would only cause the world line to jump to a different one. Their appearance would also attract the attention of observers from the Extraterrestrial Civilization, which would in turn make the world line extremely unstable.

This was a lesson learned from the past five world lines.

As thoughts churned in his mind, a plan began to form. Chu Bamboo pulled out his phone. “Hive, report the status of weapons and equipment on the fifth basement level.”

The Hive Base now had almost no Hibernation Pods left. For one, the number of people who could be sent to the future was already very limited. For another, those few individuals were almost all located in the Memory Divine Domain on the Moon.

With the support of Memory Divine Power, the survival rate for those sent to the future could be raised to nearly one hundred percent, while also ensuring they retained their complete memories upon waking. Of course, this came at the cost of the Memory Divine Domain’s own Divine Power.

The people who were preserved were all confirmed to be top-tier experts. Their purpose was to be unsealed by Chu Bamboo when he needed them. However, Chu Bamboo had set a restriction for himself: he wouldn’t use them for problems that could be solved with a normal reset unless he was absolutely forced to.

They were the most important and stable ‘currency’ he had, and they had to be spent on the most dangerous battlefields.

“There are eight Aerospace Carriers. Because they were all constructed with Memory Metal and their overall structure utilizes memory-ecological technology, seven of them are still operational,” Hive reported calmly.

“Seven… No, mobilize five of them!” After giving the order, Chu Bamboo looked into the void again. “Nuwa No. 17, your next task is…”

Chu Bamboo fluidly laid out the plan: rescue Wall Announcements, then rescue Hu Kaikang, and finally, poach Huo Qiming.

Finally, Chu Bamboo walked outside without hesitation. He didn’t even need to consult a diary; simply knowing he was on the Daqian Line was enough to confirm the state of the past. As for transferring technology—now that he had a Quantum Computer, that was the least of his worries.

He could simply have the Quantum Computer download the complete technical data package later.

At this point, the limiting factor on the past’s technological advancement was no longer a matter of technical knowledge, but rather the implementation—turning that technology into tangible results.

Opening the main gate of the base, Chu Bamboo’s expression remained impassive. He walked without pause to the entrance of the Police Chief Bureau and left in plain sight. The people monitoring the location didn’t notice anything amiss.

This was the First Divine Power of his Mysterious Divine Techniques: Secret.

…

He stood on the flagship of the Aerospace Carrier fleet.

While using the Quantum Computer to copy the technical data stored on the Aerospace Carrier flagship, Chu Bamboo thoughtfully watched the various images projected by Nuwa’s ethereal surveillance sensors.

“Alright. First, a trip to the Moon.” Chu Bamboo tapped his finger on the interface. The Aerospace Carrier flagship soared into the sky without a moment’s hesitation.

Half an hour later, the Moon came into view. Chu Bamboo tapped his fingers on a holographic screen, fluently entering a special seventy-eight-digit password. He passed the lunar defense system’s authentication.

Then, Chu Bamboo precisely stated the coordinates.

“…Guanghan Palace Industrial Zone. It’s been a while.” A nostalgic look appeared on Chu Bamboo’s face as he gazed at the industrial base, which, though abandoned, was still self-sustaining. He leaped from the Aerospace Carrier, landed lightly on the ground, and skillfully passed through a hidden mechanism to enter the Memory Divine Domain.

…

“Kevin! Drinking here again, are we?” Chu Bamboo nodded to the blond man as soon as he entered.

Hearing his voice, the blond man turned his head sharply, his face lighting up with joy. But then he saw Chu Bamboo make a ‘shh’ gesture and turned back to look at a particular door.

Three seconds later, the door opened, and Lin Xia hurried out. He stared intently at Chu Bamboo, a smile spreading across his face. But before he could reminisce, Chu Bamboo jumped straight to the next topic. “I’ve reached the Peak of the Third Realm. We can initiate the life simulation plan to help me break through to the Fourth Realm.”

Lin Xia froze. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them again a few seconds later, all traces of joy and nostalgia were gone, replaced by stern focus. “Alright. How much time do you need?”

“Twenty minutes,” Chu Bamboo said concisely. He then closed his eyes, placed a hand on the center of his forehead, and began to precisely seal away certain memories.

“In that case,” Lin Xia took a deep breath, “Hive, you can begin authorization on your end.”

“Also.” Lin Xia walked directly to the next doorway, knocked twice, waited three seconds, and then kicked it open in frustration. “Get the hell out here, Hodges! There’s no time for you to wallow in self-pity! Chu Bamboo needs you.”

“…Alright!” The moment the words were spoken, a man appeared in the doorway. His face was covered in a beard, he reeked of alcohol, and he bore no resemblance to the elegant Hodges of the past.

Lin Xia nodded and walked to the next doorway. Before he could knock, however, the door opened on its own. Huo Yuan stepped out, saw her father, and narrowed her eyes, but she said nothing.

Seeing this, Lin Xia simply bypassed her and moved on to the next door…
