The return of the Blue Star scientific expedition team enjoyed unprecedented courtesy. On the moon, Ye Ming, the leader who promoted the advancement of human science, took over the dust. After landing on the ground, all the leaders from the "community" also
Everyone was present at the welcoming ceremony, and they were in full style and standard.
Of course, the reason why the bosses of the "Alliance of a Community with a Shared Future for Mankind" were able to gather together was mainly because they wanted to hold a discussion meeting on how to deal with the "Executor Crisis" in the Space City.
Now that the executor has taken a path that can be detected, it is time for humans to decide on some pending regulations and measures.
…
After the reception banquet, Zhou Xiangnan and Ye Ming stepped onto the top floor of the Guanghan base complex.
Standing here, you can clearly see the majestic super accelerator in the distance, as well as the space dock that is being rapidly constructed between the super accelerator and the earth.
"I didn't expect that the accelerator has been built and the space dock has been built so big." Zhou Xiangnan drank a lot today. He leaned on the back of the table and looked around before sighing: "If I had come back a few months later,
, wouldn’t it be possible to see new ships coming off the assembly line?”
"It won't work in a few months, but it should be possible next year." Ye Ming pursed his lips, looked around, found Peng Xiaofei's cup, took it and rinsed it briefly under the water dispenser, took a glass of water and handed it to
Zhou Xiangnan: "Drink some water?"
"Whose cup is this?"
"Peng Xiaofei's."
Zhou Xiangnan looked at him with disdain: "Can't you take a girl's?"
Ye Ming raised his cup and took a sip: "Then I don't know which one belongs to the girl."
"..." Zhou Xiangnan shook his head, suddenly exhaled softly, and looked up at the cameras that were everywhere: "Mr. Ye, can you turn off these things?"
Ye Ming looked at him doubtfully: "What can't you say?"
"Of course you can say it...but it's best not to archive it."
Ye Ming frowned slightly. He also raised his head and glanced at the camera. After hesitating for a few seconds, he nodded. Then he raised his watch and ordered: "Aita, silence the cameras in my area for ten minutes."
"receive."
Ye Ming looked at Zhou Xiangnan: "Tell me, there is something you can't say across walls."
"Well..." Zhou Xiangnan took a deep breath, opened his mouth, and seemed to hesitate to speak.
"What's going on? You want to borrow money?"
"...I'll borrow some wool." Zhou Xiangnan couldn't laugh or cry: "Have you ever considered donating some of your semen..."
Ye Ming was stunned, then raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Xiangnan smiled slightly: "It means... I am just passing on a message. If you can understand it, you can understand it. If you can't understand it, forget it."
Ye Ming's raised eyebrows gradually calmed down. He looked in the direction of the blue star in Andromeda and smiled bitterly after a few seconds of silence.
"Forget it, I don't understand."
"Okay." Zhou Xiangnan nodded: "Oh... I thought this kind of plot could only be seen in novels."
"Well, we ordinary people cannot afford to be treated like the protagonists of novels."
At this moment, Ye Ming's watch started beating rapidly, and Zhou Lei's voice rang out urgently: "Mr. Ye, can you hear me?"
Ye Ming raised his wrist: "Yes, I adjusted the camera just now, it's okay."
Zhou Xiangnan stared at him, speechless for a while: "Damn... I just left the camera for two minutes and you directly called me to greet me. Are you calling me an ordinary person?"
Ye Ming laughed loudly, spread his hands and said, "I'm not even as good as an ordinary person. At least ordinary people don't have anyone watching them all the time."
One day later, the Starfinder set off from Guanghan Base and embarked on its way back to Earth.
At the same time, the Questioning Star also carried diplomatic envoys from the ocular star through the ye-2023 wormhole, officially entered the solar system, and will arrive at the moon two months later.
With the return of the Questioning Star, Guanghan Base has also begun to install a brand new building - this building will temporarily serve as the diplomatic embassy of the Kodo people.
According to humankind's plan, the earth in the future will be the center of civilization in the entire universe that can be explored and communicated - never mind whether it can be done or not, at least the plan must be like this.
Then the diplomatic embassies of other civilizations will obviously have to be permanently stationed on Earth.
At the very least, civilizations such as the Eyed Star and the Blue Star that are similar to the Earth's ecology and can adapt to each other need to maintain a sufficient close distance.
But before that, humans have to take into account the subtle ecological differences of different planets and the various problems caused by them - at least until human biotechnology can completely ignore extraterrestrial viruses and bacteria, humans need to temporarily
To "isolate" those outside guests.
Well, this can be considered mutual protection.
After all, this time Zhou Xiangnan and the others, in addition to doing various nucleic acid tests along the way, also conducted a sterilization of everyone before getting off the spacecraft.
…
Two days later, the calendar turned the last page of 2031.
In Taiyue's underground command center, the new artificial gravity has been adapted, and there is no longer a need to put a magnet under the water cup to attract it to the table.
In the office next to the command center hall, Ye Ming was wearing VR glasses and leaning on the sofa in a very relaxed posture. Su Zi opposite was sitting upright, taking notes while still looking at Ye Ming sadly.
Take a look.
Ye Ming is using a virtual character to participate in the joint discussion meeting being held by the "community", and what is collected in real time is her posture...
"Leaders, tomorrow we can conduct experiments on artificial wormholes. At that time, we can conduct inter-galactic material exchanges with the blue stars in the constellation Cygnus."
"Of course, due to the energy limit, we can only exchange about two tons of matter at present."
At this moment, a voice came immediately: "What about the living body?"
"Living organisms also follow this principle."
"Does that mean you can pass it on?"
The corners of Ye Ming's mouth turned up: "Experiments on living organisms must be carried out, but please note that the mass of these three tons refers to the mass of the high-dimensional space membrane generator - artificial wormholes are essentially the same as worms.
The hole is the same, and it also requires us to build a high-dimensional space membrane to maintain it. Rather than saying that we built a space-time door out of thin air, after a person steps inside, he can appear thousands of light years away."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Therefore, after removing the 'car' - this is our definition of the high-dimensional space membrane generator device that travels to and from the artificial wormhole and its internal space -
After the mass, the experimental device can carry a maximum mass of one ton."
"Don't underestimate the mass of this ton, it can actually transmit a lot of things." Ye Ming smiled and explained for the boss who asked the question: "It can completely satisfy our exchange of rare products and tools with Blue Star.
.”
"Actually, we mainly consider living bodies." The boss continued: "Professor Ye, you know."
Ye Ming breathed out softly and looked at the leader sitting opposite.
In Nuoda's conference room, he was the only one who appeared as an avatar on the moon, and the other bosses all attended in person.
This shows how important this meeting is.
Of course, Ye Ming can understand.
Although a year ago, humans learned from the Blue Star people that the Executor would arrive within three years, but in the past year, it has been calm... nothing happened. Let's put it in scientific terms.
In other words, the executor has not even entered the time light cone.
In addition, there are voices from time to time questioning whether Blue Star is deceiving humans...the purpose is to make humans leave, or to highlight the importance of Blue Star people, and so on.
Therefore, on the whole, although human beings believe the warnings of the Blue Star people, they have indeed begun the great integration and great unity of mankind.
But if you really want to say how urgent and tense it is? Of course, there is none.
The human mentality is like looking at the weather forecast. Although the weather forecast is that there will be heavy rain in three hours, the sun is shining brightly outside and there is not even a cloud. How can humans be nervous?
Unless you see dark clouds.
And now, when humanity's own high-dimensional space detectors and the Blue Star people's detectors simultaneously determine that there is a large wave of spacecraft on the "established" route for the executors...
It's equivalent to the sky starting to be filled with dark clouds.
Humanity finally started to get really anxious.
Then, you have to really consider the worst outcome.
Although this consideration will not affect all of humanity's current response plans and essential attitudes, once humanity's resistance fails, retaining a little fire for humanity... must be considered.
So it just so happens that the artificial wormhole is about to be completed here... Everyone here is thinking a little deeper.
——If it can be transmitted to living bodies, it means that some people can be "retained" to the maximum extent.
But Ye Ming didn't think so.
He looked at the leader, and the leader looked at him.
After a few seconds of silence, Ye Ming said in a deep voice: "If the stability of the artificial wormhole can be ensured, then living bodies can definitely be teleported. But...according to our current energy efficiency, even if the artificial wormhole teleports smoke, I'm afraid
It won’t spread to many people. Therefore, I don’t think this is a permanent plan.”
"If we have to implement the Spark Plan, I think we can build several large spaceships to freeze human embryos - the Antoine people have very good freezing technology - and then send them to the Andromeda Galaxy before it falls.
In the Cygnus galaxy, it is the best plan to let the Blue Star people help raise it."
"The advantage of this is that the probability of the continuation of the human race will be very high, but human civilization may be assimilated by the Blue Star people."
"Of course, we can also choose to let these departing fires find a new home and be raised and educated by artificial intelligence, and then rebuild human civilization - the advantage of this is that it can ensure the independence of human civilization, but humans may become extinct because of this
.”
"In fact, if we really choose to seek help from the Blue Planet people - whether it is transporting embryos, sending some human races there, or even hiding them, once we cannot resist the executors,
Then there is a high probability that human civilization will be assimilated and then die—I don’t even say enslaved.”
"Don't forget, we are now able to gain a dominant position in the exchanges with the Holy Star people, the Kodo people, and the Ursine people of the Eyed Star. Essentially, it is because we humans are a whole, a group with a population of tens of billions.
!”
Following Ye Ming's voice, the leader on the opposite side slightly nodded, and his steady voice spread throughout the conference room: "Professor Ye Ming is right, we have an old saying, if there is no skin left, how will the hair be attached? If there is no skin left, how will the hair be attached?"
Earth, without these tens of billions of people... Instead of believing that other extraterrestrial civilizations will treat us kindly, it is better to believe that our descendants will choose to return to Earth because of the genes of human tenacity, pursuit of truth, and courage to fight flowing in their blood.
Forge the glory of mankind."
The leader's voice paused and sounded again: "It is said that in ancient times, when the human race was at its lowest, there were only a few thousand people, but in the end they multiplied and achieved such great achievements. I believe that our descendants will
, when they have a richer inheritance than our ancestors, they can do better!"
After the leader's words fell, applause also broke out.
Ye Ming also smiled and clapped his hands, and at the same time his heart was relieved.
He's not saying that people won't be able to escape at the most critical moment - nonsense, if they really can't be stopped, who would want to die?
But once you choose to escape, you will immediately face another problem: who is qualified to "live"?
As we all know, when it comes to this kind of issue... fairness becomes the biggest issue.
Ye Ming is most worried that the leader will consider evacuation through artificial wormholes as a plan. In that case... a lot of work on the moon will come to a standstill, and starting next year, people will be evacuated one after another - otherwise
If so, it can only transfer one ton of mass at a time, and it has to be recharged...how many people can run there!
And more importantly, this will shake the morale of the military!
Now it seems that the leader means to implement another "tinder plan" - the embryo plan.
Then... taking the embryos away is actually harmless. As long as no living people are taken away, everything is easy to talk about and the military morale will not be shaken.
"Professor Ye Ming, you continue."
When the applause stopped, the leader smiled and motioned for Ye Ming to continue.
"OK."
"Now let me report on the current progress of our hypercone strike team."
"We are making rapid progress. It is estimated that we will complete the preliminary engineering design next month, and then strive to conduct the first stacking test within half a year."
Ye Ming exhaled softly as he spoke, and his eyes were filled with light.
"That would be a disruption to our entire energy system."
"In the future, we can even build palm-sized reactor batteries, and our spacecraft will also have nearly infinite space."
"At that time, power plants will no longer even exist, and every household will have countless electricity and energy. Whether it is cars, ships, airplanes... all the fantasies in those science fiction works will be
It will become a reality because energy is liberated.”
As he spoke, Ye Ming licked his lips as if greedily.
"Of course, this is just a vision at the moment... We still need to drastically change the energy industry and reduce the cost of stacking."
