The swirling leaves on the ground were scattered by the wind, gradually fading into the distance.

Lin Xian turned and left the parking lot.

...

Back at the company, Lin Xian went straight to his office and took out Professor Xu Yun's marked manuscript from his drawer.

There were about four or five red circles on it, marking suspected errors and omissions.

Lin Xian decided not to come to the company in the afternoon. He planned to take advantage of the daytime to enter his dream and go to the library to correct these wrongly transcribed chemical reaction formulas.

"And... there is something more important to confirm."

He paced around the office, slapping the manuscript against his thigh, pondering in his mind...

Now that Professor Xu Yun had overcome the ice crystal problem, it was only a matter of time before the news was released.

From this point on, time and history had changed, the original development trajectory had shifted, and the future should be rewritten in sync.

"If my previous speculation is correct, then the future world in the dream will also undergo some subtle changes."

"Just like... the Coco Cat in the previous dream. After I [intervened] in the real world and renamed it Rhine Cat, the Coco Cat in the dream also became Rhine Cat."

Lin Xian stopped and looked at the busy traffic outside the window.

In the original history, the ice crystal problem was solved by Dr. Michaelson in 2477.

But according to the current history, the ice crystal problem was solved by Professor Xu Yun as early as 2022.

In this case, could Dr. Michaelson still hold the throne of "Father of Hibernation"?

Should he give Professor Xu Yun half of his seat?

Lin Xian had a strong premonition:

"The historical records in the dream will definitely change."

"This is also the strongest evidence for me to change history and rewrite the future."

The bitter cold wind outside the window picked up, banging against the steel window.

Facing the halo, Lin Xian seemed to see a butterfly fluttering in the corner of his eye.

It just flapped its wings slightly.

And that was enough in the 600-year-long river of time...

To set off a storm that destroys everything.

...

After returning home.

Lin Xian ordered takeout, filled his stomach simply, and prepared to enter his dream again during the day to go to the library.

This time, he could finally completely verify the truth of the dream.

Did the space-time butterfly effect occur as he had imagined?

Had history and the future been successfully rewritten?

Everything would be revealed after this dream entry.

Lin Xian opened the manuscript marked by Xu Yun and deepened his memory of the wrong places again.

Then he lay on the bed.

"Let's go."

He turned over and closed his eyes.

...

...

Whoosh!

The hot summer wind, the unbearable high temperature.

The moment Lin Xian opened his eyes and saw the scorching sun, beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead.

He trotted all the way to the bus stop, took the bus to the library, and went straight to the science book area on the third floor.

He had been here several times before, so he was already familiar with the road.

Lin Xian looked at the bookshelf, at the place where Michaelson's book "Brief Analysis and Prospects of Hibernation Technology" had originally been placed...

"It's not there."

Lin Xian smiled as he expected.

Since Professor Xu Yun solved the ice crystal problem in 2022, the title of Father of Hibernation might not be available to Dr. Michaelson 400 years later.

Lin Xian carefully searched again from left to right.

"It's really not there!"

In an instant, Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relieved.

Now he could confirm it.

His previous guess was indeed correct.

[This dream here is truly the future world 600 years later!]

And—

[What I do in reality can indeed rewrite the future! Change the dream world!]

This was indeed good news.

It represented that his exploration of the dream world had gone deeper, and he had finally completely figured out the truth of the dream world.

But at the same time...

It also confirmed bad news—

[The Genius Club is real.]

It had been hidden in the fog of history as early as 2022, secretly stirring up the long river of history, spanning a time of 600 years.

As soon as he thought of this name, Lin Xian felt as if a dark hand covering the sky was coming from behind.

He thought this was an existence far away from him... but Zhao Yingjun's invitation from the Genius Club appeared before his eyes, close at hand.

According to Big Face Cat, this was an evil criminal organization.

What were their goals?

What form did their gatherings take?

What were the consequences of joining them?

What were the consequences of refusing to join them?

Would Zhao Yingjun join the Genius Club?

Zhao Yingjun was not considered a genius or a big shot, so why would she receive an invitation?

...

The Genius Club, it was too mysterious.

It was so mysterious that people knew nothing about it, like a dark black hole. Just a glance at it would pull you into the bottomless abyss by the hand of history...

Lin Xian rubbed his arms:

"Don't think so much, Zhao Yingjun received the invitation, not me... Why do I care so much?"

Right now.

Without Dr. Michaelson's work, he could only look for new breakthroughs.

He believed that someone would always replace Dr. Michaelson as the Father of Hibernation and solve the hibernation capsule filling liquid problem. After all, technology would not regress.

Lin Xian went straight back to the first floor of the library by elevator.

He found a computer that no one was using.

He entered [How far has hibernation technology developed?] into the search engine and pressed the Enter key.

Squeak...

Squeak...

Squeak...

The computer was still very slow. The several anti-virus software programs in the lower right corner were still fighting inextricably. He didn't know who would be the last to remain and dominate eternally.

After a while, the webpage refreshed.

Lin Xian looked at the first result—

[To this day, hibernation capsules have still not been successfully developed. Technological breakthroughs in the field of hibernation only appeared briefly around 2200, when Academician Gao Wen of the Dragon Kingdom successfully developed a hibernation capsule filling liquid. In the hundreds of years that followed, there were no further technological breakthroughs in the field of hibernation.]

"Sure enough, the hibernation capsule has not been successfully developed yet."

Lin Xian was naturally not surprised by this result.

After all, the information he gave to Professor Xu Yun was copied incorrectly, and the impact on reality and the future was very small. It only advanced the invention time of the hibernation capsule filling liquid by more than 200 years.

"Academician Gao Wen."

Lin Xian looked at this unfamiliar name.

Presumably... the title of Father of Hibernation had probably been transferred from Dr. Michaelson to Academician Gao Wen.

"The wheel of fortune turns."

"When I copy Academician Gao Wen's thesis back this time, maybe next time I come to the dream, the title of Father of Hibernation should be crowned by Xu Yun."

Lin Xian couldn't help but imagine.

If Professor Xu Yun developed the hibernation capsule filling liquid in 2022...

What kind of science fiction future would it become 600 years later?

Star warships?

Galactic roaming?

Cosmic voyages?

"At that time..."

"The world in my dream will definitely become more interesting, right?"
