Open your eyes violently.

The canoe, lying flat, bounced off the bed, with its chest fluctuating sharply and breathing heavily.

It wasn't until then that he realized that the clothes behind him had been soaked with sticky sweat...

Rubbing some sour eyebrows, walked out of the ark, went to the fridge to grab a bottle of water and have a sip, stabilized my mood a little.

Though it's happening in the conscious world, there's no such thing as a demon monster over there.

But perhaps because it's too realistic, it's not good to have a memory that doesn't belong in the world.

It's like...

He walked to the landing window and stared at the lively and bustling night view in the distance for a long time, until the bottle of mineral water he held in his hand somehow felt less cool before he turned away from the window.

“It's...”

“It's like a nightmare. ”

I took a shower in the bathroom.

Dressed in fresh clothes, the ark returned to sit at the computer table.

It took him about a minute, and he went back to the system space and checked it out, and that pure white space didn't change because it was said to be a rare "void memory a”.

However, the scandalous purple sample in the item bar disappeared.

It's as if it never existed.

Back to reality, the ark thought for a moment, opened the memo and knocked down a few lines of text on it.

[What are those black square spires?

[If computers, who do they belong to?

[What are you calculating?

Besides that, there are gold cubes soaked in the bottom of the pool, which, if he remembers correctly, should have been "Wreck Two” before they were burned.

But there's no rush, and when he gets back, he naturally combines what he remembers and tries to figure out what's hidden on Wreck Two that he hasn't discovered yet.

The three questions were recorded on the memorandum, and after a moment of reflection on the screen, the ark eventually set a password for it.

Though this strange dream of land departure, even if it is told to others, it will probably not be taken seriously.

But be careful.

……

The next day.

Vera's 45-minute debriefing session began and the venue was arranged by the Organizational Committee of the General Assembly in room VII.

Pretty lively in the reporting room.

A lot of people are curious about this female Fields Prize winner.

After all, although female physicists and chemists are not rare, female mathematicians are quite rare.

Few scholars, in particular, have been able to achieve top results.

Besides, it's a talented woman with both knowledge and facial value, which can no longer be described in terms of cherishing a species.

Even many scholars who were not concerned with the analysis of mathematics and the direction of the Lehman zeta function appeared at the debriefing.

Arriving at the venue 10 minutes early, the ark looked around and almost didn't find a location. It was not until Schultz, sitting in the middle of the field, waved to him that the ark walked.

“This position was taken on behalf of my old friend Aksai, but the report coincided with a 45-minute report in the direction of his research. ”

Ark: “Thank you. ”

Schultz smiled and said.

“You're welcome. ”

As he struck the arrears, the ark reached out and picked up the paper on the table, turning a few pages at will.

He didn't sleep well last night.

Until now, the mind is a lump of paste. One moment it is the city where the metal is laid. One moment it is the majestic black square spire. One moment it is the black space filled with blades. One moment it is the liquid helium pond like an altar...

Schultz: “You didn't sleep well last night. ”

Ark: “Yes. ”

Schultz: "Been up all night? ”

“Kind of," he seemed to think he was a little too indifferent, and after a moment's pause, he said, "I had a little long nightmare. ”

Schultz asked, “What was your dream? ”

Ark: “… probably about the future. ”

Schultz raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure it was a nightmare? ”

Ark: “I suppose so... although I'm not sure if that's the future of mankind either... I mean, I'm not sure if it's a clip I've seen before in a big science fiction film. But all in all, that feeling of silence is not very good. ”

“I'm a Legend"? ”

“Ha ha, maybe, but those are old movies. ”

shrugged his shoulders, and Schultz had a somewhat exaggerated look on his face, joking: “That's sad. Even the greatest scientists of this century are pessimistic about our future, and it looks like I'm going to have to consider buying myself an extra insurance policy. ”

The ark shook its head with a smile.

“This joke is not funny. ”

Schultz laughed and said, "But didn't you laugh? ”

Ark: “That's because the first thing you thought of was buying insurance… taking 10,000 steps back What's really wrong, who are you going to let pay for your policy? ”

Schultz squeezed his chin and thought slightly.

“That's a problem. ”

The two men were saying that the briefing had begun.

Standing on the stage, Vera looked a little thin and seemed somewhat heartbroken. And don't know if it's her delusion, the ark always feels that she doesn't look particularly good.

However, those matters could be taken up until the end of the report session.

Now that the report has started, it is, of course, based on academic matters.

This, in turn, is the least respect for the rapporteur.

Without thinking about anything unrelated to academia for the time being, the Ark took a deep breath and focused its attention on the paper in hand.

It was so busy that after the uploader had modified several copies, he almost forgot to look at the finalized copies before the start of the report.

But it doesn't matter to him.

Anyway, at his level, a lot of things, that is, looking at things, don't delay anything at all.

“Superelliptical curve analysis supplement?” After reading the summary, the ark's eyebrows lifted gently with interest, "kind of interesting. ”

Simply put, Vera continues his thinking on problem-solving in the theoretical tool of "hyperelliptical curve analysis", but in the crucial step of "introducing Plancherel formula to Heisenberg population”, by another more ingenious method, the theoretical tool of “hyperelliptical curve analysis" demonstrates greater operability in the connected one-dimensional reflux of the Lehman curve.

It is difficult to explain the subtleties of this in common language and elementary mathematics, but in short, this operation not only instantly captures the eyes of all audiences in the whole place, but even the ark is not allowed to shoot the case.

Even gave him the luminosity to immediately go back to the hotel room and start closing the research impulse.

Of course, that's what the Ark thinks.

If he does, he can't do it.

Nothing else, Vera's still on stage.

I finally stood on this stage for the whole mathematics community. If he suddenly left as a “master”, he wasn't sure if the little girl on stage would cry...

Listening to what Vera said on the stage, Schultz, sitting beside him with his arms, suddenly sighed and said.

“To be honest, I do envy you sometimes. ”

The sight of the ark did not move away from the podium, but merely responded.

“... envy me for what? ”

“There's a brilliant apprentice, and whenever you come up with a novel theory or invent a new thing, she can help you do it better. ”

The Ark laughed and did not answer that question.

However, at this point, the accident suddenly occurred.

Vera, standing on the stage, suddenly coughed violently.

“… sorry. ”

She pressed her right hand against her lip and apologized slightly. Vera was about to continue her debriefing, but just as she was about to open her mouth again to the whiteboard, that voice just climbed to the tip of her throat and was interrupted by a severe cough.

Bean-sized sweat beads crawled across her forehead, holding Vera on a white board, her face slightly pale.

Taking note of the situation here, staff members hesitated to step forward.

“Miss Pouilly, the report will be here for now, if you feel unwell...”

“No, let me finish! ”

Squeezing his right fist against his lip, his sapphire-like pupils flashed through a brief confusion, but were soon washed away by burning courage.

From the moment she got sick a year ago, she knew she didn't have much time left.

It was so hard for her to get here...

Stuck by the momentum, the staff subconsciously stopped and, after a moment of hesitation, retreated.

And Vera, standing on the stage, has looked back at the whiteboard.

Unprecedented clarity of thought.

Tightened her teeth, she lifted her right hand again and quickly wrote down a line of formulas on the whiteboard.

Because of the pain and anxiety in her heart, the numbers and symbols printed on the whiteboard have been distorted, but the idea of the furious pen and the electric brake in her head still hasn't stopped.

Not just what was already mentioned in the paper, but what was in her mind, just a blurry to abstract blueprint, she wrote on a whiteboard.

Time and space were thrown behind, and the pain in the torn chest seemed to have disappeared.

It is said that when a person's physical condition is at its limit, the body distributes all functions to the brain to ensure that important information can be left at the last minute.

But she couldn't afford to think about it anymore.

Not for her successor in mathematics, not for the person she admires...

If this is the last debriefing in her life...

At least…

She intends to do it without regret!

Finally, supported by that obsession, she wrote the last one.

Looking at the filled white board, she stepped back, her lips holding a slight smile.

Although it still hasn't reached the end of the maze...

But believe…

These things should help people later, right?

Especially what he said.

All of a sudden, consciousness is in a trance.

She subconsciously stretched out her right hand, holding onto the white board next to her, but did not expect to wipe the blood she had previously coughed up.

Blood!

There was a noise of noise and commotion under the silent stage.

Oops...

When I saw the red mark, Vera sighed badly.

Although it's a miracle to last until half a year, I didn't expect it to be this day...

Happy and sad days seem to have met.

Your legs are losing strength.

Before her consciousness fell to the ground, she saw the familiar figure rushing towards her from under the stage at an incredible speed, with the last remaining light.

Suddenly she felt...

There seems to be nothing to regret.
