Chapter 225 Preparations Before Disaster (Part 2)
It was two months later that Ling Chen had inspected it. Fortunately, he had a million clones. Of course, the number is not enough for one million now, because there are still some people who fall into the world of "Fire and Sword", and he still has no time to rescue them. He is still a little afraid of that world. Although it is just a fourth-level world, there is a god inside.
The so-called existence of God can be understood as a conscious existence that can control the whole world. It is obviously a great loss to fight against it, especially in the other party’s home court.
Ling Chen temporarily skipped this world. Although he made great gains, he could not bear the consequences of the huge losses of his clone because he had not yet figured out the principle of soul splitting. The upper limit of splitting was the talent brought by a series of previous events.
The world that can be explored now has basically been explored. Apart from the harvest of props and civilization stones that can be brought by routine tasks, there is nothing new.
Ling Chen knew in his previous life that the world of "Fire and Sword" was very strange. Now that the authorized people have reached the level of level 8 discoverers, they still have no choice but to do anything about it. In his previous life, Ling Chen's memory was only after the disaster occurred, but he entered that world for adventure. At that time, the expedition team still rushed to the ground.
Now there are still ten years before the disaster occurs. At this time, the world of "Fire and Sword" is even more difficult to crack.
So Ling Chen spent all his energy on the real world during this period, and briefly called a large number of clones to devote themselves to the defense construction of the real world, and there were fewer people in the mission of the civilized world.
Now he gains the main gains in the civilized world, just like other authoritatives. He comes from the mission gains of the human expedition team.
This is because he has a large number of reliable and loyal subordinates who are doing things for free, and other authority figures can imagine how great their losses would be if they left the free gains given by the human expedition team.
After inspecting the construction of branches in various places, Ling Chen checked the construction of Hope Island and Pagoda Island.
Hope Island is a fixed island. It has been built long ago, and the surrounding breakwater can be used as a city wall. In the later stages of the disaster, monsters in the ocean emerge in endlessly.
And Baota Island is a large floating island, and its power is only fuel for the time being.
For him, there were few other problems with the castle he built. Once it was fully built, it would definitely ensure the relative safety of the residents. The tall city walls could block the invasion of most mutant monsters, and the intelligent copy arranged inside also carries special civilization props to resist the attacks of those ghosts.
But if Ling Chen wants to persevere for a long time and survive a long period of disasters, he has at least two fatal problems that have not been solved.
First, in terms of energy, in his previous life, he knew that many safety points were broken because of lack of energy. Without energy, weapons cannot be refined, and basic cooking and survival are problems. I don’t know how many gathering points have to risk their lives in order to find some fuel.
Modern people have become accustomed to the life of industrial civilization. If there is no electricity or fuel, such days can certainly be tolerated under the threat of death. However, the safe point, castle established by Ling Chen, is destined to have limited capacity and it is impossible to store a large amount of fuel. Cooking fire is a basic requirement, and eating raw may be possible at the moment. This will inevitably not be the case in long-term life.
The second is food. Food has a shelf life. Now Ling Chen can purchase a large amount of food and reserve three or five years. Of course, there are foods with shelf life for decades, but the saying goes, the castle capacity is limited, and it is good to eat it for up to five years. After there is no continuous new disaster, it is a great luxury to want to farm safely, especially in the middle of the disaster, those ghosts can control the ubiquitous wild animals, insects, and humans cannot cultivate them outside the safe point. In human history, the wild boars, wolves, and other wild beasts have been expelled to cultivate the wasteland.
But in this catastrophe, more monster mutations and insects that humans cannot expel can easily kill humans who have farmed outside. The best technology now is just to cultivate and cultivate them in some greenhouses. The fundamental source of human food is still natural photosynthesis. Artificially synthesized food must be only a small amount. It can be easily done in the laboratory to synthesize organic matter from inorganic substances, but it is still difficult to solve billions of rations.
There are countless famines and tragedies caused by this.
The best energy source is of course the nuclear fusion technology that humans have been studying for decades. There were great difficulties before, but now there is hope.
The human expedition team is exploring a world of science and technology at any cost, and there is the technology of nuclear fusion.
This technological world is a place with great investment and sacrifice. It also rejects the effect of the resurrection props of the authority, so even though the authority has discovered this place, he dare not explore it rashly. To obtain this technology, it is necessary to completely pass the entire world, and there are too many lives to fill it in.
Ling Chen was reluctant to waste manpower at first. His 180 million civilization stone had to leave 100 million as his spare, and 80 million had already consumed more than half of the civilization props. It was especially expensive to buy civilization props that could resist spiritual invasion. He was not using it for himself, but to buy it in large quantities. Thousands consumed more than 20 million, and a considerable portion of them had to be left to prepare for the resurrection of his subordinates.
Like him, many authority figures are waiting for the human expedition to make a major sacrifice and obtain such technology by the way.
In Ling Chen's memory, the acquisition of this technology was only successful three years before the catastrophe began, but at that time only a few fusion power stations were built, and they did not play a role in the early stages of the catastrophe.
Now he has to speed up this step, nuclear fusion technology is very useful for his branch castle, and with it it means endless energy.
This technology is combined with the artificial synthesis technology of food, which is the best way to defend the city. One is energy and the other is food. These two solutions can survive the catastrophe period and retain the spark of civilization at the least cost.
The technology of artificial food synthesis also exists in this technological world, which is what humans dream of. Therefore, although the sacrifice is significant, it can almost match the sum of other worlds. The human expedition team still continues to invest manpower.
For Ling Chen, this is also a benefit that makes him coveted. With these two technologies, it means that for the first time humans can obtain the right to survive freely from the limitations of natural resources, so that reproduction and offspring will truly become a kind of freedom without always considering the upper limit of the environment.
Of course, Ling Chen knew the value of it, and other authorized people also knew it, but when the authorized people died in it but could not be resurrected, no one had any idea here. Anyway, the Civilized Boat does not force them to enter, so it will naturally instinctively escape the threat of death.
But of course, the human expedition team that did not know the inside story would not be like this. As soon as they entered the world behind the permanent civilization gate, they found that the energy inside was almost endless. Since nuclear fusion technology is a technology that humans have always had concepts and are studying, they can easily understand and understand the origin of this endless energy.
As for the synthesis of food, we discovered only a very small number of farms and feeding circles, and learned that humans in this world have long stopped relying on arable land to provide food and meat.
Unlike other authoritatives, they do not know that the end of the world is approaching and can slowly wait for human exploration. But Ling Chen can no longer wait, especially the large number of humans who have discovered abnormal souls. The end of the world may not be like the previous life. They will slowly wait until ten years later.
So he must take the initiative to advance this process.
To take the initiative to advance, he also has to face the difficulties of other authorized persons. In this civilized world, the resurrection props have no effect.
This technology world is called "The Battle of New Humans". The content background is very simple. But it is surprisingly similar to the real world. This world is about the fact that some humans on Earth discovered a ruin of aliens and obtained many new technologies from it, from genes, energy, and food, which are incomparable to humans.
They first used genetic technology to transform themselves, but transforming genes is not a simple matter. It requires the use of a device in this ruins, and the number of such devices that can be modified each year is certain, and it will not exceed 100,000.
After gene modification, people will have rapid leaps in all aspects. Memory, understanding, inference, and other things closely related to the human brain have almost earth-shaking changes, and their lifespan will increase significantly, from an average lifespan of less than 80 years to a thousand years. The modified gene can be inherited stably, and their descendants will also have these abilities, and will even be stronger.
This constitutes the basis for the existence of new humans. People who have obtained this genetic modification have begun to monopolize this alien remains and prohibit other humans from getting close to them.
And they also monopolized various new technologies. Two alliances appeared on the earth, one was the alliance of the old human beings. People who had not received genetic modification were loose and unstable. Every senior in it was not trusted and believed that they would be attracted by the new human alliance at any time. After all, the things that were attracted were too precious and could not have any noble people in human history.
This old alliance of humans is referred to as the blue alliance because of its logo using the blue tone of sea water.
The New Human Alliance has various high senses of superiority, especially in terms of intelligence and vitality, which has made them look at the old human beings the same as those of monkeys.
For example, an ordinary person needs to learn a book, learn and be able to use it. It takes several months to pass the exam, and his life span is only eighty years. How much knowledge can he learn in his life, and his ultimate achievement is only so great.
The genetically modified new humans will only take a few hours to achieve the same effect when they learn a book and have a lifespan of one thousand years. With such a gap, everyone can see at a glance that the life forms of the two will be completely different with the passage of time.
Just as humans view monkeys and orangutans, monkeys and orangutans are also smarter among animals, but the gap between new and old humans is even greater than the gap between humans and orangutans.
The difficulty of this world lies in the fact that these new humans have developed their brains very well, and they also have mental abilities. They are smarter than ordinary authoritatives. They also realize that there are invasions from other worlds, so they try their best to clean them up.
Moreover, because of the existence of that alien ruin, the resurrection prop of the Civilization Boat was invalid. It can be seen that the gap between the two sides is not very big, at least this world cannot be completely controlled by the Civilization Boat.
