Just like that, since departing from Riley Star, a hundred years had passed…
That day, a few old friends were having a private gathering, and those seated in the room were essentially Zhang Yuan, Li Zhendong, and Ye Kaifu, the first generation of astronauts who had embarked from Earth. They gazed at the magnificent scenery of the Universe while reflecting on the passage of time.
For high-ranking officials like Zhang Yuan, the ratio of hibernation to waking times was maintained at about 3:1, while for ordinary people it was roughly 9:1. Therefore, what felt like ten years to ordinary people, felt like 25 years to Zhang Yuan.
"Time really flows like water. Speaking of which, I can still remember the moment we first left Earth… It was truly a one-way time travel."
"How many years has it been now, 5576? Nearly 3500 years…"
"Ha-ha, I actually never bother to remember the years, because I always mix up the era we're in!"
