Chapter 355 Departure Day, and a New Beginning!
Chapter 355 Departure day, and... a new beginning!
No matter what, mankind needs to set off again.
In the large square near the Green Supermarket, a girl dressed as an intellectual was dating Captain Lu Ying, who had just returned from mining.
"Well...you have worked really hard these past few years."
For five years, I only occasionally came back to rest during the Chinese New Year.
Most of the time, Lu Ying is still out and about.
The environment outside was naturally extremely bad. It was hot, dirty, and the sun was strong. Lu Ying had tanned a circle and lost a lot of weight. His whole person seemed to be shrewd and capable.
The spirit is still very good.
"Hey, after all these years, thanks to the jade pendant you gave me. Sometimes I really feel like I'm going to be paralyzed, but I still persevere!"
The young man raised his neck and said proudly: "When I think that the more resources we dig out, mankind will be able to take a small step forward in all directions, I really can't stop!"
"By the way, what have you done over the years? Isn't it that you have achieved nothing?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, and her voice became colder: "Of course it's no worse than you! We studied the paradigm structure of black radiant silicon and reconstructed the A4331 system..."
"What did you say? Say something humane."
"Humph, you illiterate! The C-type mining robot control system you use is made by us, do you understand? Without us, you would just use shovels to mine."
The girl's voice was slightly lower, as if she was expecting praise from the other person.
She is a professor of information science at the University of Engineering, and she works hard every day, which is also very hard.
In the end, Lu Ying showed no appreciation and complained loudly: "Oh, that mining system with so many bugs turned out to be the work of your research team... We still need to continue to work overtime and optimize it. Let me tell you, that thing is like What an idiot, we call it artificial retardation, hahaha!”
Although the girl Lu Ling has a strong and cold personality, at this moment, she couldn't help but blushed at what this guy said and almost stamped her feet.
Is there anyone who despises it like you?
But she admitted that some jobs were indeed inferior to others... For example, her younger brother Lu Tiantian was also responsible for manufacturing robots, but he was the owner of the divine skill "Super Thinker", so there was nothing he could do about it.
"Ahem, let's not talk about this. I have found something good for you in the past few years." Lu Ying took it out of his arms and took out a bright ruby with a platinum ring underneath.
I don’t know which craftsman he asked to make it for him. It is quite exquisite. The ring setting is still in the shape of a small mirage, so it took a little effort.
"Hmph, decorations mean nothing to me!" Lu Ling instinctively hated these worthless things.
She just likes a minimalist life.
"You don't want it? Forget it, my sisters want it too." Lu Ying laughed. He also has his own small family, with two younger brothers and three younger sisters. He is the eldest brother.
As a result, the ring was snatched away in the next second.
"I never said I don't want anything that is meaningless!" The girl felt that she was being firmly controlled and could not help but clenched her fists. Where had her usual calmness as a professor gone?
So while pushing each other, their hands collided.
At this moment, Commander Lu's face appeared on the screen in the green square, covering up the embarrassment of the two people.
"Comrades and friends from Green City, good afternoon!"
"Here, I solemnly announce to everyone: we will officially set off on Sunday next week!"
"The destination has not changed, it is still the direction of the mother civilization of mankind."
"Since the volcano erupted and the voice of 'god' appeared, the number of civilizations will obviously become more and the competition among civilizations will become more intense."
"Our 18th civilization is a native ninth-era civilization. Although we have some adventures, we have no backing and can only rely on ourselves."
"You must know that there are alien civilizations left over from the previous era, second-generation civilizations that have escaped once, and materialistic technologies that far exceed our technological civilization."
"Just like that civilization that emits gamma ray bursts, it can easily wipe us out... We must not be complacent. Once we are satisfied with the status quo, our demise may be the next moment."
When Lu Ying heard this, he subconsciously tightened his mind and clenched his fists.
But I found that the girl sitting next door screamed softly: "You... pinched me."
"Be gentle!"
Lu Ying was both happy and worried. He actually held the girl's hand. Was this a successful step?
I still need the help of the commander...
But then again, why doesn’t holding a boy’s hand give me this strange feeling of happiness?
This feels so good...could it be because I had obscene thoughts?
Lu Ying was confused.
"For sure, we are not at the leading level right now."
"Only by never stopping to move forward, travel, and look for opportunities can we provide a solid foundation for future survival and development..."
Lu Yuan paused for a moment on the screen: "But we don't have to belittle ourselves. Compare it to the poverty before coming to the Origin Fire Civilization. Well, it was indeed poor at that time. There was a huge resource gap for the national B-level, and the government's fiscal deficit It’s also very high.”
"Now almost every laboratory has its own research topics, and there is no shortage of funds."
"Our financial problems have also improved tremendously."
Lu Yuan's voice became obviously louder.
And the low-grade materials in the treasury are worth more than 10,000 Lingyun!
There are even several pieces of legendary extraordinary materials! (Respectively, they are innate roller steel, dragon egg shell, and a fire attribute ore)
"With the large-scale puppet technology of the Origin Fire Civilization, our industrial level has also risen to a higher level. To take the simplest example, the expansion of the Sky City originally required the joint efforts of all mankind for a construction period of 200 years."
"Now it may be shortened to 100 years, or even 50 years, and only tens of thousands of engineering teams will be needed to complete it. There is no need to invest all the strength."
"Our semiconductor technology has finally made some progress. This is the first step in the information revolution."
"This is indeed a big leap forward, but it is not enough and we cannot stop here."
"Only by becoming stronger can humans be qualified to be promoted to a third-level civilization!"
"So, move forward, never stop moving forward!"
There is naturally no objection to Lu Yuan's speech.
The whole society is looking forward to it.
The distance, the mountains, the ocean...
Except that the treasure-digging team, which had been busy for five years, got a long vacation, the life of the people was actually pretty much the same as usual... it was time to work, and it was time to have fun.
Therefore, after a week, Green City took back all the mining machines and replenished the water supply.
After the upper council issued the order to set off, as the Sky City slowly rose, people invariably looked at the super volcano with an altitude of 10,000 meters...
This is the place of burial, blessing and rise, and humans... may never return.
Some people are praying, and some are saying goodbye...
Some people are praising, and some are wiping away tears...
Then, the city slowly left from above.
…
…
First year, sixth month…
The city once again reaches the edge of the ocean and enters drifting mode.
The new continent brought about by the volcanic eruption covers an area of 50 million square kilometers, but compared to the huge ocean, it is only a drop in the bucket.
Once it's fresh, it's the second time it's familiar. It's not a big problem to switch to drifting mode again.
"The deep sea..." Lu Yuan was at the edge of the city, looking at the boundless ocean.
The water is deep blue, with a hint of coldness.
"To what extent can the city's power system be improved?"
"It's difficult. Using drifting glyphs can only reduce friction, but it cannot propel the city. The inertia of the city is too great, and it is too difficult to push it with propellers. We must at least develop controllable nuclear fusion and use ultra-powerful instruments to make it possible. The city is faster."
In the current deep sea area, ocean currents have decreased, and cities move very slowly.
The area located 2,000-5,000 meters below the water surface is called the abyssal zone, while the altitude of the trench is below 6,000 meters. These very deep areas are sometimes called "hyperabyssal zones."
Crisis in the deep sea, how should I put it, may be less than on land, but once it occurs, it will definitely be stronger than the crisis on land. Maybe there are super visions from previous eras hiding here?
Human beings are terrestrial creatures after all. Once they fall into the sea, even a strong man like Lu Yuan will find it difficult to survive for a long time.
But people still choose the deep sea.
Because according to the speculations of scientists, most of the relics of civilization are actually left by "caibo civilization", that is, those civilizations that have been hiding in the safe zone, which are also the majority of all living beings.
The real estate of this kind of ruins is full of money, and only one or two thousand auras will come to an end.
The knowledge they left behind, such as how to advance to extraordinary fire, primary glyphs, and how to cultivate mutant plants, etc., is of no use to humans.
Therefore, the value of the relics of a first-level civilization is really limited.
And the ruins of those powerful civilizations, those with more than 10,000 souls, are likely to be hidden in some strange and dangerous corners...
This is a very simple idea.
Now that the Origin Fire Civilization has found a world-class volcano to build a refuge, will other powerful civilizations think of similar methods?
For example, poisonous swamps, underground abyss, deep sea trenches, etc.
It's impossible for those powerful civilizations to survive the epochal disaster on the plains, right? If you think about it with your toes, you will know that they are not that stupid!
Therefore, Deep Sea is an excellent choice!
But the water pressure in the ocean is no joke, every 10 meters deep is 1 atmosphere!
A water depth of 6,000 meters is equivalent to 600 atmospheres of pressure, which is equivalent to more than 600 kilograms of force per square centimeter. This is really beyond the limits of human beings, and even a seventh-level master cannot bear it!
Therefore, the treasure-digging team has many fewer ways to explore the deep sea - puppet robots, immortal giant turtles, and... small mirage dragons!
