Meng Chao was dumbfounded, pondered for a long time, and then asked tentatively: "Dr. Lu, do you mean that in addition to the earth and the other world, we can also travel to, uh, other planets, right?" ”

"Why not?"

Lu Tianxing's eyes were blazing, and his face was full of confidence, "First, we already know that there was once a brilliant and glorious primeval civilization in the other world, and this civilization is inextricably linked with us earthlings, at least tens of millions of years ago, they were able to open up a 'route' from the other world to the earth.

"Second, we know that the primeval civilization has very advanced biochemical modulation capabilities - many of the monsters we have captured, after dissection, have found that they can perfectly integrate a large number of arthropod and mammalian organs, and even integrate the characteristics of plants and animals, and from the genetic level, they are injected with various 'natural skills', which are comparable to 'magic' and 'supernatural powers', which are the embodiment of the development of science and technology to the extreme.

"Third, we also know that the gravity, air pressure, oxygen content, and ecosystem of the Earth and the other world are almost the same.

"Looking at the vast universe, the probability of finding two identical planets is about zero, in other words, the earth and the other world are bound to be transformed by the primeval civilization.

"Since the primeval civilization has the ability to transform planets, do you think they will only transform the two planets, the earth and the otherworld? Could it be that there are more planets that have also been transformed by ancient civilizations, with incredible creatures such as humans, monsters, and even civilizations? ”

Meng Chao was thrilled when he heard it.

Lu Tianxing's words opened a new door for him.

The whole world has expanded a hundredfold in an instant, no, ten thousand, no, billions of times!

Originally, in front of Meng Chao, there was only a misty otherworld.

Now, above the other world, I saw endless bright stars.

"By the way, last time in the film and television appreciation meeting of the Blue Homeland, I once heard Wu Haibo, a researcher from our 101 project, talk about a 'city starship hypothesis', saying that it is very likely that there is a 'chrono engine' from the ancient civilization buried under our Dragon City, as long as the engine can be repaired and activated, Dragon City can be turned into a super giant starship, leading to the other side of the sea of stars."

Meng Chao stared at Lu Tianxing and said excitedly, "What Researcher Wu said, could it be true?" ”

Lu Tianxing smiled, neither admitting nor denying it, but said: "We don't know if it's really a 'chrono engine' now, but cities are the carrier of civilization and the crystallization of civilization, and it is indeed much more reasonable to launch an interstellar voyage with a city as a unit than to build an interstellar spaceship or push the entire planet to sail."

"If we can really activate the chrono engine under Dragon City, then the mission and appearance of our entire civilization will undergo earth-shaking changes, perhaps, we leave the earth, but what we get is not only the other world, but also the entire universe.

"But—

"No matter where this journey of thorns and flames will take us, we must never forget that we are from the earth, and we must never forget the mission of 'returning to the earth'.

"Earth is not a paradise where everything is perfect.

"I'm not an 'earth fundamentalist' who thinks that people on earth have to live on earth.

"However, at least for the time being, the culture, morals, laws, customs, and social structures that originate from the earth are the cornerstones that support our 'Dragon City Civilization'.

"The Dragon City civilization is a civilization where classes are torn apart, and the rift is getting bigger and bigger.

"The transcendent has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, and gradually develops in the direction of the legendary 'immortals' and even 'gods and demons'.

"Ordinary people who can't awaken their extraordinary powers, huddled in shacks in harsh environments, unable to adapt to the development of the times, unable to even support themselves and support their families, and have to face viruses, spores, and monsters all the time...... The threat of various otherworldly creatures is hundreds of times greater than that of the Earth era.

"If it weren't for the morality and law of the Earth Age, the remnants of the 'inertia' that made transcendents and ordinary people subconsciously regard each other as compatriots, we would most likely drift apart or even split up in just a few decades.

"When the time comes, ordinary people who can't awaken their extraordinary powers will be completely eliminated in the cruel competition for survival.

In the end, even if the transcendent really grasps the power of gods and demons, and even inherits the entire legacy of the primeval civilization, through the chrono engine, the tentacles of civilization will be expanded to every corner of the sea of stars, and it will have nothing to do with the earth civilization that we are proud of.

"This is the true meaning of the existence of the 'homeland faction'.

"Even if we can't return to Earth for the time being, we must keep the hope of returning to Earth at all costs.

"Only when this hope exists, will we always believe that we are earthlings, and will we respect and defend the morality, law, fairness, and justice of the earth era...... All good things.

"So, what does it matter if you never return to Earth? As long as the earth is in our hearts, we can transform the other world, the countless planets in the sea of stars, into a new earth, and let the spirit of the earth's civilization shine forever in the sea of stars! ”

……

Until he left the ward for a long time, sitting with Zhao Feixian in the small tea bar of the convenience store downstairs in the inpatient department, Meng Chao was still fluctuating and couldn't calm down for a long time.

He felt that Dr. Lu could fool her father more than Lu Siya.

"Awesome, right?"

Zhao Feixian asked him, "After listening to Dr. Lu's words, are you excited, and you can't wait to go to the fire for the earth civilization now?" ”

"That's a must."

Meng Chao nodded, "Chrono Engine!" The journey to the sea of stars! Let the spirit of the earth's civilization shine forever in the endless universe! It's so exciting, it turns out that I have always misunderstood our homeland faction, the homeland faction is not a shrinking turtle, our lofty ideals are a hundred times more heroic than the 'sweeping other world' advocated by the colonists! ”

"Now that you have felt the heroic spirit of the 101 project, have you considered investing in R&D?"

Zhao Feixian hit the railway while it was hot, "Now that the project is progressing to the most critical moment, perhaps, with just a little bit of R&D funding from you, our civilization can rise in the sea of stars?" ”

"Huh?"

Meng Chao blinked his eyes and said, "Of course, I also want to see the spirit of the earth's civilization shining between the stars and the sea, but you know my situation—I have just broken through the Heavenly Realm, and I urgently need to purchase a large number of cultivation resources to consolidate the realm; The super star resources at home are also recruiting manpower, and in the process of expanding the scale, they have borrowed money from seven or eight banks, and the cash flow is still very tight. ”

"It doesn't matter, you don't have any money, the members of our 'Remnant Star Club' are rich, aren't they?"

Zhao Feixian put his arm around Meng Chao's shoulders and said affectionately, "I mean, as the president of the Remnant Star Society, and as the thirteenth committee member of the Blue Homeland, there is more room for interaction and cooperation between our two organizations."

"Originally, there were many members of the two families who overlapped, many of whom participated in the activities of the Blue Home a few years ago, and joined the Remnant Star Club last year.

"Moreover, our philosophy is more focused on ordinary citizens and mid- and low-level transcendents.

By the way, I would like to invite our experts from the 101 project, researcher Wu, to introduce the 'City Starship Hypothesis' and the significance of the 101 project for the members of the Remnant Star Club."

"Well...... this"

Of course, Meng Chao knew that the reason why Blue Home invited him to become the thirteenth member was not just because of his personality.

90% because of his charisma.

The other 10% of the reason is probably to spread the concept of homeland among the hundreds of thousands of members of the Remnant Star Society.

Including Dr. Lu Tianxing, who met him for the first time, taught him the "Star Spirit Visualization Technique", and was so concerned with him, I am afraid that I also want to get some sponsorship.

No way, the most important thing in scientific research these days is money.

For a project leader like Dr. Lu Tianxing, the most important task is probably not to engage in research, but to make money.

No matter how small the fly is, it is still meat, and the members of the hundreds of thousands of Remnant Star Club, if everyone can give a love to the "Controllable Crossing Technology R&D Project", what a better tomorrow it will be!

Meng Chao was not disgusted by this.

Because Lu Tianxing's words did give him a sense of being bright and finding a new way.

Originally, he could think of a way to "crush the apocalypse", which was to make Dragon City a hundred times stronger than in his previous life at all costs, defeat all the gods and demons of the other world, and become the master of the other world.

I have to say that even as a reborn person, he is gifted and talented, and it is a little reluctant to achieve this strategic goal.

Moreover, on the road to conquering the other world, there will definitely be countless vicious battles, countless compatriots will be sacrificed, and countless compatriots will become unrecognizable under the blood of the Shura Slaughterhouse, which will never dry up.

Meng Chao didn't want himself and the citizens of Longcheng City, just like the Black Skull instructor in his previous life said, "Survive, even if you become a cockroach-like existence, as long as you survive."

The 101 project brought a second option other than "fighting to the death with the gods and demons of the other world".

If what Dr. Lu Tianxing said is true.

The time-traveling experts can really repair the legendary "Chrono Engine", so that the entire Dragon City has the ability to travel again.

It doesn't matter if you travel back to Earth, or if you travel to Earth and a third planet beyond the Atlas.

All of them mean that in the face of otherworldly gods and demons and the Doomsday Havoc, Dragon City has a high degree of mobility at the strategic level.
