Wu Jin suddenly sat up from the bed.
He looked at the digital clock on the wall.
June 10th, 4:36 AM.
It was already getting light outside, and Wu Jin recalled everything he had just experienced.
That strange feeling.
Within reach, controlling everything.
Was that… telekinesis?
Qi Person, Alienation Source Liquid! Special abilities.
Could it be that his future self, after drinking the Alienation Source Liquid, would awaken the ability of telekinesis?
Thinking of this.
Based on the lingering sensation, Wu Jin tried to reach out his hand and grab the clothes at the foot of the bed from a distance.
However, the clothes remained unresponsive.
Sure enough, what happened in the dream could not affect the present.
But Wu Jin, not believing in fate, reached out his hand again, attempting telekinesis.
That feeling of being able to control things as if they were an extension of his arm was too captivating.
However, no matter how hard he tried, that alienated ability, after all, came from the future, and he did not possess it yet.
But!
Wu Jin's eyes lit up.
If he wanted to possess it now, it wasn't entirely impossible. That would be the Alienation Source Liquid.
Xianmu Mountain!
According to the data, the meteorite containing the largest amount of Alienation Source Liquid ever recorded was there.
So, the problem arose.
Xianmu Mountain, in the southern part of Lin City, was too large, and its terrain was muddy and rugged, with many areas not open to the public.
If he were to rashly enter it, finding that meteorite would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Therefore, to successfully find that meteorite, Wu Jin would need to enter the dream future again to find the coordinates of the Xianmu Mountain meteorite.
"The time I agreed upon with Lan Youyou is tomorrow, so there's still one day, which is just right!"
Wu Jin got out of bed and went to his desk.
He took out his notebook, opened it, and looked at the information he had recorded.
This time, there was new progress in the dream future, but it was also as good as none.
Things were as he expected; the future Wu Jin entering the Concept Isolation Room was not to avoid disaster.
Instead, it was very likely to search for the Alienation Source Liquid.
As for the purpose of the search, it might be a guess that Qi Persons transformed by the Alienation Source Liquid could escape the effects of the apocalypse.
However, the truth, judging from Wu Jin's final fate, was that Qi Persons could not escape in this apocalypse either.
Of course, it was also possible that he misunderstood, and the future Wu Jin had other purposes.
This would need to be verified little by little in the dream future.
Currently, what he needed to do most was to find the meteorite in Xianmu Mountain.
After all, that feeling of controlling everything with his mind was very intoxicating for a young man like Wu Jin.
So, he wrote in his notebook:
"The key to escaping the apocalypse may be related to the Alienation Source Liquid; the specific method needs to be verified."
Next, there was another important matter.
The change in the future.
In reality, he only changed his college entrance examination scores, and his future self's identity changed.
This indicated that the future world would change based on the decisions he made in reality.
However, this change also had a trigger.
It seemed that it had to be something that had already happened in reality.
For example, when he changed his college entrance examination scores, he had already started researching the exam questions and memorizing them days ago.
But the future had not changed at all.
It wasn't until the college entrance examination ended, and his real-world trajectory changed as he wrote down the answers on the exam paper, that the future also changed accordingly.
So, the future changed along with it.
Thinking of this, Wu Jin picked up his pen.
"Actual actions in reality will affect the direction of the future."
"Note: It is guessed that it must be changed by actual actions; changes in thought may need to be put into actual action."
"Ah!!!"
As he wrote this, Wu Jin's eyes lit up.
He suddenly thought of a name!
Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd.!
This company was very likely the predecessor of Xin Si Biotechnology.
Every time he entered the dream future, he had to attack this company with mercenaries.
Since he could now change the future through actual actions, could he enter Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd. through his efforts in reality?
If so, he wouldn't have to waste time and effort attacking it in the future.
If he was already an employee of the company, couldn't he just walk in grandly?
So, Wu Jin quickly got up, walked through the living room, and went to his parents' room.
It was already five o'clock.
Wu Jin's mother was already awake and starting to make breakfast for Wu Jin's father.
Seeing Wu Jin come out of his room, Wu Jin's mother said in surprise:
"Xiao Jin, you're up so early!"
Wu Jin nodded: "I couldn't sleep, Mom. I'll use your phone to look up some information!"
Wu Jin's mother handed him her phone.
Because of his family's poor financial situation and his studies, Wu Jin did not yet have his own phone.
Holding his mother's phone, although it was an inexpensive old model, it could at least access the internet.
Connecting to the neighbor's Wi-Fi.
He directly opened a recruitment app and searched for Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd.
The phone loaded, and soon information about Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd. appeared, including job openings.
He opened the recruitment interface.
It was clear that Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd. was currently in an expansion phase, with many positions being added.
Most of the job requirements specified experience.
Only a few positions had relaxed requirements, open to fresh graduates.
The required majors were advertising and media, law, finance-related majors, and finally, biological engineering and biotechnology.
Wu Jin opened the recruitment information for each position one by one.
If he truly wanted to enter Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd. and work there steadily for 30 years without being laid off.
Then he must enter the company's core business.
And Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd.'s core business, without surprise, the future name had already given the answer.
Xin Si Biotechnology.
In that case, among the many fresh graduate positions, only the latter two were most likely.
Therefore, Wu Jin immediately made a decision.
For his university major, he would study a biology-related field.
Originally, he hadn't thought carefully about his university major, as just a few days ago, he was still a slacker with narcolepsy.
Now that his life trajectory had changed, his university major naturally had to change as well.
To find the truth about the future apocalypse, perhaps a biology major was indeed his best path at the moment.
Returning to his room, he wrote down the relevant recruitment information.
Wu Jin was not worried that Blue Sky Technology Co., Ltd. would no longer recruit biology students after four years of university.
He had the future backing him; if worst came to worst, he would just go for a master's or doctorate degree then.
With the technological support from 30 years in the future, Wu Jin didn't believe he couldn't make a name for himself!
With a decision made.
For the rest of the day.
Wu Jin waited to enter the dream world.
In the afternoon, during nap time.
He entered the dream world once again.
"You mean, all of humanity will perish in less than an hour?"
"Stop chatting, let's go!"
Attack, hack, open the door…
In one smooth motion.
This time, the action was swift, and Wu Jin gave himself 20 minutes.
The moment he entered the Concept Isolation Room, he found the Alienation Source Liquid and drank it immediately.
Warmth spread throughout his body, and he experienced that feeling once again.
God! Controlling all things! Everything within sight could be touched.
He extended his hand.
A can from a distant shelf slowly floated into his hand.
Wu Jin's breathing quickened as he carefully savored this god-like feeling:
"This feeling… it's too wonderful!"
While marveling, he didn't forget the main task.
Using telekinesis, the documents in the briefcase flew out on their own, flipping through pages.
Wu Jin calmed down and began to search for records related to the Xianmu Mountain meteorite.
However, there was a lot of information.
The content below had no record of the meteorite's location.
Instead, it contained some experimental data on Qi Persons' bodies.
This data recorded various figures and experimental projects related to the alienation of Qi Persons.
Just a glance, and Wu Jin's heart, which had been excited by obtaining psychic power, cooled by half.
In the pictures, the alienated Qi Persons were tied to experimental beds, some with their chests cut open, exposing their internal organs, their faces twisted in painful expressions, proving they were still conscious at the time.
There were also Qi Persons whose arms had been cut off while they were still alive, with several scientists standing by, coldly observing the condition of the severed arms.
Cruel, bloody, painful.
Even though Wu Jin had experienced countless painful deaths in the future world, he still could not accept such cruel scenes.
Looking at the plight of those Qi Persons in the pictures, Wu Jin subconsciously thought of his own fate.
If he gained alienated abilities in reality, would he also suffer this fate?
In an instant, Wu Jin was drenched in cold sweat.
With a heavy heart, he continued to flip through the documents.
By the end, he was even numb to the Qi Persons' suffering in this document.
The experimental projects of these scientists had surpassed his comprehension; one after another, inhumane projects, utterly devoid of humanity.
"Were these experiments officially led, or were they done by Xin Si Biology on its own initiative, or by other organizations?"
"Why did this information appear here? What is its relationship with Xin Si Biology?"
Wu Jin thought calmly.
Beep, beep, beep…
The countdown was about to end.
He had not found the location information of the Xianmu Mountain meteorite.
But he had obtained intelligence that was incredibly important to him.
Looking at the tragic fates of those Qi Persons in the documents, Wu Jin had to seriously consider how to handle his own position after gaining abilities.
Report it to the authorities? Or be an anonymous hero? Or completely forget his abilities and live the rest of his life as an ordinary person?
No matter what choice he made in the future, at least for now, Wu Jin would definitely choose to keep a low profile as much as possible.
At least until he clarified the source of that information and the living environment of Qi Persons in the future, he needed to act discreetly.
He slowly woke up, carrying a heavy heart.
All the way until nightfall.
He entered the dream future for the second time.
This time, things went more smoothly.
Wu Jin successfully found the meteorite coordinates folder ed between the lines in the latter half of the document's explanation.
He noted down the Xianmu Mountain meteorite.
The countdown ended.
The time also came to the morning of June 11th.
Today was the day he and Lan Youyou had agreed to go to Xianmu Mountain.
