Star Ocean: Starting From the Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 379: Rational Use of Superluminal Technology

Chen Ming carefully looked at the resume of this person from the Fifth Corps.

He was originally a researcher trained by the Fifth Corps.

He left the Fifth Corps after the chaos in the Caimo Star Domain last time.

He himself had no connection with Zuo Jing, but because he had a close friend who had a close relationship with Zuo Jing, he was not brainwashed like other people, but a very senior believer of Zuo Jing.

Therefore, he was forced to retire.

From this resume, it seems that this person is indeed fine.

It was just because he was too deeply involved with Zuo Jing that the Fifth Corps had no choice but to force him to retire and then arranged a civilian job for him.

As long as he did this job, he could continue to keep in touch with the Corps, which was also a bit of the Fifth Corps background.

But for this researcher, such a gap seemed a bit difficult to accept.

So he did not go to the company arranged by the Fifth Corps for him, but chose to build a new small laboratory by himself and take over other projects.

It seems that he still wants to go back to work in a place with status.

However, he certainly can't go back to the Fifth Corps.

So in the end, there was one more person in the talent pool of the director of the psychic power.

Overall, there was no problem, but the title of the Fifth Corps made Chen Ming frown.

He had conflicts with the Fifth Corps before.

Although there was no direct conflict, the relationship was definitely not very good.

Even though Chen Ming's current ability was enough to threaten the empire, the other side still had no attitude.

Chen Ming was too lazy to run across most of the empire to investigate these issues, but he was still a little unhappy that the people of the Fifth Corps showed up in front of him.

Although it was not a bad thing to pry the Fifth Corps's people, this researcher was still specially cared for by the Fifth Corps after being forced to retire because of his deep involvement in Zuo Jing's affairs, which showed that he was at least a capable person.

After knowing that he could not return to the Fifth Corps, he still chose to work independently temporarily, which also showed that he would definitely not be bound by the Fifth Corps, and it would definitely be no problem for him to join other research institutes with military or government backgrounds.

The director of the Psychic Institute definitely thought so, so he added this person to the list.

But Chen Ming really didn't like the Fifth Corps, after all, the things that happened before were still vivid in his mind.

Whether it was the earliest thing or the last thing.

Although the impact was quickly suppressed, Chen Ming still remembered what they had done.

This eventually led to him not trusting anyone in the Fifth Legion.

Chen Ming would not doubt a person without reason under normal circumstances.

But the project he was recruiting for was about the study of the nightmare of the plane, which was very important and dangerous.

Chen Ming thought about it and simply called out the list of all people again, raised the review standards, and reviewed it again from the beginning.

Confirm what should be confirmed, and review what should be reviewed.

It is a skill to pass, and it is not necessary to say if you can't pass.

After that, Chen Ming had to give travel expenses to all those who passed to ensure that everyone could reach the new galaxy he rented.

Enter the project team where he arranged the research direction in advance and arranged the team leader.

But he only trusted them a little bit at the beginning.

Most of the project team members had to open their own or join a project team after they were familiar with the limbs of the nightmare of the plane.

The laboratory would provide them with resources and environment, so the final benefits of their achievements would be shared by the project team members and the laboratory to which the project team belonged.

This is also one of the manifestations of the development of Chen Ming's extraordinary laboratory.

A mature laboratory must have a similar structure to ensure the long-term operation of the laboratory.

He will only keep an eye on a few key projects including the psychic shield.

After all, these technologies are what Chen Ming can really use.

After reviewing the list of personnel sent by the director of the psychic institute.

The people from the climate transformation department also gave Chen Ming a prepared reply.

Chen Ming prepared a little and drove a new Supreme Point prepared for them to the space station where they were stationed.

The Supreme Point had just entered the port.

Chen Ming saw a crowd of people in the port and various equipment that almost filled the port unloading area.

With doubts, he opened the cargo hold of the spacecraft and walked off the spacecraft in person.

A researcher who looked only in his thirties came up immediately.

Chen Ming had read the website of the Climate Transformation Department in advance. He was the director of the department.

The director came up and extended his hand to Chen Ming enthusiastically: "Mr. Chen Ming."

Chen Ming extended his hand and shook his hand, and asked: "I saw it on your website. It seems that you have only about 300 people in total?"

"Yes, all are here.

"..."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, we don't have many tasks this year. It's our honor to help you do things."

"I'm glad you feel okay. Get on the ship. This time we may go a little far."

The director waved behind him, indicating that he could start arranging robots to move the equipment on board.

In the midst of the busyness, Chen Ming heard some scattered conversations in the crowd, which seemed to be talking about the Seed of Life Project.

Chen Ming silently thought about the Seed of Life Project and the purpose of this trip, and didn't say much.

He just took the director to the captain's room and handed over the control of the spacecraft to him.

Then Chen Ming used the old method to teleport the spaceship directly to the Origin Galaxy, and then used the wormhole to reach the world on the other side.

Although Chen Ming can use his own psychic energy to teleport between the Empire and the world behind the wormhole, the distance beyond the observable universe makes the consumption of doing so even exceed the upper limit of his ability.

Anyway, the effect of passing through the wormhole is similar to direct teleportation, and there is not much difference.

At most, when passing through the wormhole, Chen Ming has to explain to the minister why the wormhole that the spaceship just drilled out is flying with the spaceship.

When the highest point carrying the Climate Transformation Department arrived in the galaxy where the Gaia planet is located through the jump.

Everyone entered the state directly and began to debug the equipment that had been prepared on the way here, and they could start the pre-climate transformation investigation at any time.

The minister in the captain's room gradually became serious after entering the galaxy: "Mr. Chen Ming, this galaxy gives me a strange feeling."

Chen Ming looked like the minister was talking nonsense, and there was no need to elaborate on his thoughts on the galaxy situation.

"I know that, but I don't have the right means to investigate now."

"No, no, no, I'm not talking about the strange stars now, but other aspects."

"From the data you obtained before and the data we are observing now, the changes in the state of stars in the galaxy are very drastic. They only happen in a short time and then end."

"Such drastic changes in stars cannot leave no traces. Apart from anything else, where did the energy of the stars that suddenly decreased go?"

"Flare?"

"It is definitely related to that flare."

The minister said a little embarrassedly: "When you just gave us the task, we did not look at your data carefully, but we checked it carefully later."

"There is definitely a problem with that flare, but we are not sure what the problem is. A more detailed investigation is needed."

"Among the equipment we brought this time, there is equipment for observing stars. As long as the flare phenomenon appears again, we will definitely be able to figure out what it is."

The impact of stars must be taken into account when modifying the climate of a planet. Chen Ming is not surprised that they have these equipment.

It can only be said that things that should be left to professionals should be left to professionals.

Chen Ming nodded to the minister and talked about another thing that might affect the investigation of the galaxy.

"Oh, by the way, do you remember the wormhole we just came out of? It will be here in about half a day."

"Ah?"

In the minister's daze and Chen Ming's explanation.

The highest point quickly approached the planet Gaia.

It began to descend from the orbit of the planet to the surface.

Every certain distance, the people from the Climate Transformation Department would release a detector fixed at a certain height.

There are detectors left at different heights from outside the atmosphere to the surface, just to obtain the most detailed planetary data,

and at the same time, it can be regarded as a comparison with the data detected by Chen Ming last time.

Although the Minister of the Climate Transformation Department has already believed that the data given by Chen Ming is fine, the procedures that should be followed must be followed, which is a respect for the work.

And judging from the various data fed back by these deployed devices, the environmental conditions of the planet are really good. As long as the influence of the blizzard can be eliminated, this planet will be a planet extremely suitable for human habitation.

However, the minister still couldn't see the specific manifestation of the conscious existence of the planet that Chen Ming mentioned.

Chen Ming didn't directly answer his question, but just asked him to record the data first, and he would know later.

The spacecraft lowered its altitude all the way to the snow layer of the planet.

The data on the surface and in the air have been recorded.

Only the data underground needs to be recorded.

Chen Ming had already said that due to the existence of the giant forest.

Therefore, the underground operation needs to deploy external working equipment, pass through hundreds of meters of snow, and continue to dig underground.

Considering the efficiency of this mission, the existence of Chen Ming, and the wormhole that will be reached in less than half a day.

The minister chose a more efficient but also more dangerous way.

Go directly to the spider-type all-terrain reconnaissance vehicle, and he personally led a group of people to form an underground environment reconnaissance team to go underground.

The spider-type all-terrain reconnaissance vehicle can be said to be synonymous with flexibility and stability.

It is enough to complete the task of collecting planetary data.

The rest of the people continued to monitor the equipment that had just been deployed on the spacecraft, and also continued to install new monitoring equipment at different locations on the planet.

Ensure that the data will not produce errors.

Another group of people entered the highest point and took other spacecraft to the vicinity of the star to install a special device for detecting the status of the star, which was more professional than some general-purpose detection devices that Chen Ming could get.

The spider-shaped all-terrain detection vehicle quickly went deep into the snow and went to the underground world along the trunk and roots of the giant tree like Chen Ming before.

The minister personally took the stage at this time, and Chen Ming certainly would not be idle.

However, after the group entered the underground world, he did not stay on it, but opened the hatch and jumped out directly.

"Mr. Chen Ming!"

"Don't worry about me, just record the data."

Chen Ming waved to them and walked to a farther place.

When he came here before, he stayed here until the Climate Modification Department needed him to go pick him up.

In addition to being comfortable here, he was also trying to communicate with the consciousness of the planet.

Although the effect was not ideal, the planetary consciousness seemed very weak, which led to him not being able to find someone to communicate with.

But he had to try.

What if he could communicate?

If he could communicate, the rest would be easy.

On the spider car, a researcher on the equipment console suddenly called the director.

The minister turned his head and found that his expression was very surprised, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"The environmental index is changing rapidly"

"How did it change?"

"It has become...more suitable for the human body."

"Ah?"

"Yes, really, this underground ecosystem can already allow people to survive here, but it continues to make people more comfortable."

Chen Ming's voice just happened to come from the intercom channel: "Did you see it?"

"This is what I call the consciousness of the planet's existence. I prefer to call such a planet Gaia."

"Gaia..."

The minister of the Climate Transformation Department still knows the well-known mythological figures, especially the mythological figures closely related to the earth.

Of course, he also knows that mythological stories are just for listening. In fact, this situation is still closer to psychic or similar existence.

Although the minister is not a psychic, he also knows that these things that exceed the limits of normal people have existed for a long time and have a way that ordinary people can understand.

So he asked: "The concept of planetary consciousness is still too general. Since it can adjust the environment, there must be a means of adjustment, right?"

"Indeed."

Chen Ming said: "It should be those luminous plants, which produce most of the light and the living things in the environment underground. The luminous plants may be controlled by the planetary consciousness."

"But these plants don't seem to be able to connect to the planetary consciousness in reverse, so I'm also trying."

The samples of luminous plants were collected and tested when they just passed by.

Indeed, these luminous plants in the underground world maintain the stability of the entire ecosystem.

It is because of their existence that this planet has the name of Gaia in Chen Ming's mouth.

And these things are of special value to their department.

But the minister thinks it's not time yet.

He continued to talk about the problem of the planet itself.

"Mr. Chen Ming, do you know when the star will undergo a dramatic change?"

"I remember that I sent you data as well. According to the situation on the planet Gaia, it happened about five years ago."

The minister certainly knew that Chen Ming had written it in the document he sent them. He asked this question just to lead to his next sentence: "I have an idea."

"Since we already know when it happened, why don't we jump to a place five light years away from here to conduct optical observations here?"
