I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

That night, the remaining five members of the Salvation founding team had a rare reunion during a non-annual meeting period.

Several people returned to Caiwei Lu, put on the instruments from that time, and played "Never Walk Alone."

It's just that Zhong Lei's image and singing voice are generated using holographic projection.

Except for Chen Feng, the other four people were obviously showing their age.

But Zhong Lei's image was perfectly reproduced by the holographic image, just as it was back then, as breathtakingly beautiful as before.

In the hoarse performance, time seemed to go back to that evening that year, and the short-lived Salvation Band reappeared in this way many years later.

Fatty Ou, who was so old that he had gray hair, but still looked energetic, burst into tears and cried bitterly. He was even sadder than Chen Feng.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with emotion: "This time I exercised very hard to live longer. Although I still haven't lost weight, my life has become longer. How come Sister Lei... well!"

Fatty Ou finally listened to Chen Feng’s words and started exercising for at least one hour every day since July 2020.

Unfortunately, it seemed that he was fated to be wide and fat. He could only lose weight occasionally due to overwork, but after a few months of rest, he immediately regained his shape.

But fortunately, his exercise was indeed effective. He has not lost fat, but has gained more muscles. His physical condition has also improved a lot, so he is still in high spirits to this day.

Fatty Ou knew that he was always the first to die in the rescue process. This time he rarely broke his fate, but he didn't expect that Zhong Lei, who was supposed to live the longest, would die first.

Chen Feng patted his shoulder and in turn comforted the fat man.

He smiled and said: "It's okay, her life may be over for you. But for me, it may have just begun."

The fat man was puzzled, "Huh?"

Chen Feng didn't explain, he just looked up at the sky.

He knows what changes "The Sun in the Universe" will bring to human civilization next.

Zhong Lei will continue to live.

She will live in human memory in a very stable form, living in the quantum network established by the stars.

In the past, those "ordinary songs" left by Zhong Lei could constitute a complete personality of Stars.

This time, Chen Feng completed "Stars" first.

Previously, "Stars" has been further absorbing and digesting all of Zhong Lei's works and a large amount of information.

Now another song "The Sun in the Universe" that is consistent with the grand unified theory has been added.

Then, the traces Zhong Lei left to mankind will always exist with mankind's thoughts.

This period is not ten thousand years.

Even if "The Sun" disappears in the long river of time ten thousand years later, Zhong Lei's influence on mankind during these ten thousand years will last forever.

Zhong Lei's "death" is, in a sense, just physical death.

Zhong Lei's thinking will accompany all her works, with "The Sun" as the skeleton, and will always exist in people's hearts.

After a lot of calculations, Fanxing gave Chen Feng an answer.

If human beings can truly be eternal, then sooner or later, when human beings have evolved to a high enough level and their understanding of the universe has reached a sufficient depth, then "Zhong Lei" will come out of people's hearts again.

Chen Feng believes that if he succeeds in achieving true quantum immortality by then, the two of them will eventually meet again.

That night, the five people who had not drank for a long time became extremely drunk.

Early the next morning, Chen Feng, who was sleeping on the sofa, just opened his eyes and saw Ryan sitting opposite him, holding a huge drawing in his hand.

The pattern on the drawing looks like a whirlpool, or like a tablecloth that someone grabbed in the middle and twisted out a few swirls.

In this day and age, probably only old-school people like Ryan can draw with pen and paper.

He also uses a computer on a daily basis. Only when he is working on some particularly important and difficult projects, he will take out the heirloom-like paper and pen.

"What's this?"

Chen Feng stepped forward and asked.

Ryan looked up at him and rubbed his drowsy eyes, "I designed the rapid transportation network in the solar system."

"Um?"

Chen Feng thought about the term in his mind, then picked up the drawing and looked at it carefully.

The center point of the vortex is marked with the sun in tiny letters.

This is a large web that covers most of the solar system like a three-dimensional spider web.

The large network is divided into eight circles from the inside to the outside, and each circle is connected to each other by many arc-shaped pipes.

Ryan explained: "The eight-layer deformable ring will revolve around the sun. These connecting arc pipe networks are connected to the ring with movable buckles. The inside of the pipe network is an ultra-vacuum environment, and we can shuttle it like a train. The machine enters the loop pipe network from the arc pipe network."

"Under the acceleration of continuous electromagnetic power, the speed of the space train can reach one-third of the speed of light. When switching between the arc and loop pipe network, it only needs to slow down to one-tenth of the speed of light. Transportation network It will become the blood vessel of the solar system, transporting large amounts of materials from one place to another in a very short time.”

"This can greatly improve the efficiency of resource allocation within the solar system and further maximize the role of unlimited resources. When we complete the mass-energy conversion equation and Dyson membrane, we can begin implementation."

Chen Feng watched intently for a long time. This kind of blood vessel-like network had never been used in previous timelines.

He wasn't sure if this was the right path.

He asked: "This may not be cost-effective when the level of technology is not sufficient. After all, we only have a thousand years."

Ryan smiled. “Absolutely a bargain.”

Chen Feng: "How can you see it?"

Ryan: "You said that the solar system is important to humans, right?"

"Yes."

"In the ninth timeline, you once said that the main force of mankind should not give up the solar system easily. Although the people who went out created a lot of new value in the shadow galaxy, they still did not meet your expectations."

Chen Feng nodded, "Yes. We will not give up the solar system easily this time."

There was something he didn't say.

This time he has new ideas about the war layout in the thirty-first century.

Assuming that the plan goes well, with the help of Zhong Lei's additional works such as "The Sun in the Universe" and "The Last Thousand Years", the main remaining human force will become immune to the ZS bacteria, and humans will be able to withstand twenty-six century, the dome will still be in the sky above the solar system by 3020.

At that time, Chen Feng will let future generations take advantage of the disadvantages of fuzzy surveillance in the dome, so that the external performance of the solar system civilization will remain similar to that in the eighth timeline, and only secretly accumulate technological strength.

Wait until about 3000, and then use the mature warship planting technology to wildly expand military strength in just twenty years and ambush the opponent.

Then, those with compound eyes will inevitably be misled by the appearance observed in the dome. The first wave of main battle forces must still be prism ships, and there will not be those powerful reinforcements that arrived later in the previous timeline.

At the same time, the first choice target must still be the solar system.

According to Chen Feng's preview, the following situation is likely to occur.

The prosperity in the solar system is so high that the Compound Eyes decisively regard the solar system as the biggest threat.

If the prism fleet can break through the blockade laid by the Morrowind Empire in advance and reach the solar system.

The other side will keep the dome sealed and send millions of warships into battle. Only after the solar system is completely wiped out will they be broken into pieces and dispersed to pursue other humans in the galaxy.

But this time, Chen Feng will use the solar system to make them miserable.

By then, the territory of the Morrowind Empire will be infinite.

But the main battlefield in the first phase of the war will only be the solar system.

War can only go in two directions.

First, those with compound eyes discovered that the solar system is a tough target, and even a million-sided ship can't do anything to defeat it. The Compound Eyes left the dome in the sky above the solar system, and the prism ships dispersed, going out to find the "soft persimmons" one by one, and at the same time calling for reinforcements. Save the hardest nut, the solar system, for last.

Second, the solar system in turn used the dome blockade, using the desperate strategy of killing one thousand enemies and damaging eight hundred, to bury all the million-sided ships in the solar system. Then the enemy's reinforcements will not arrive until around 3520 at the earliest.

Humanity in the solar system will gain a possible period of stable development for the entire Morrowind Empire at the expense of their own heavy losses.

This maximizes returns.

As for the second phase of the war, there are two possibilities.

Assuming that the first situation occurs, the solar system is left as a hard problem until the end.

In the thirty-first century, Chen Feng will find a way to use the Grand Unification Formula to create a way for a small number of human main forces to lurk out of the dome, and go outside to lead the war between the Morrowind Empire and the Compound Eyes, starting the second phase of the war.

If it is the second situation, even if it seems very selfish, he must lead the leadership team in the solar system to survive, and continue to guide the next five hundred years of stable development, rapidly expanding his strength in order to wait for another second situation. Arrival of stage war.

If all goes well, humans can annihilate the Compound Eyes, counterattack the enemy's lair, completely destroy it, or directly usher in the third stage of the war and face the real super-level civilization behind the Compound Eyes.

But either way, Ryan's proposal seems to make a lot of sense.

First of all, Ryan's idea did not use too many super-level technologies, so it would not cause too much vigilance from the enemy.

Humans in the eighth timeline could complete it, but they were blocked by the dome at that time and could not get out. The development and squeeze of the sun was not strong enough, and energy capture could only rely on the natural combustion of the sun.

With the material production capacity at that time, only ships, aircraft and other means of transportation could be used to complete the transportation work, so it was not done.

But this time, Chen Feng will keep the stellar rapid development technology and build the ultimate stage of Dyson membrane. By then, the material production capacity will completely exceed the transportation capacity of ships and vehicles.

Building the blood vessel-like space rail network proposed by Ryan would just solve the productivity needs.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng was a little surprised, "Tell me how you came up with this?"

Ryan said: "I am studying the space-time topology you taught me."

"Um."

"Although we don't have the experimental conditions now, you have told me a clear answer. Mass-energy conversion is achievable, right?"

"Yes."

"Then you also described a Dyson membrane for me, describing a method that can steadily increase the burning speed of the sun. So, I speculate that when the dome arrives, we can only rely on the resources in the inner solar system to accumulate resources. We may even Completely burn out the life of the sun within a thousand years, and wave goodbye to the hometown that gave birth to us. Then, if we want to maximize our resource utilization efficiency, we must build a space blood vessel network."

Ryan said loudly.

Chen Feng was silent for a long time.

It must be said that he was shocked by Ryan's sudden burst of amazing analytical ability.

Ryan already has a long-term vision similar to his.

Moreover, his method of analyzing the development of civilization from a scientific perspective is more accurate and creative than Chen Feng himself.

Ryan's space-time topology came to the fore.

Chen Feng originally thought that it would take at least another twenty years for Ryan to reach such a state.

Ryan gave him a big surprise.

Chen Feng reached out and patted Ryan on the shoulder out of habit, "Well done."

Ryan's appearance was obviously much older than Chen Feng's at this time, but he showed a rare shy smile, "Thank you for the compliment. In fact, this was an idea I just came up with last night. Zhong Lei did this for you, Even giving up decades of life. I am also your comrade-in-arms and your compatriot. I think I can and must do it."

"Space-time topology is amazing, but I am older than you, and I don't have as long a life as you. So, I'm sorry, I have to disobey your order this time. You have to cultivate a new heir. Ou Junlang His son, Ou Tianwen is a good choice. As far as I know, his arousal level is about to reach 30%, right? "

Chen Feng: "Yes."

"That's just right. I can move forward boldly with confidence. Since my talent is scientific research and innovation. If I want to have no regrets in my life, then I must exert my greatest strength in the field where I am best. You You once criticized me and said that I was about to become a low-end project manager. I have always kept your criticisms in mind over the past few decades. I will leave a legacy in the field of science that can be passed down for thousands of years, just like Zhong Lei. s things."

After saying that, Ryan began to introduce Chen Feng in detail the core of the solar system's rapid transportation network.

Ryan completed two preliminary designs.

One is the construction plan of this first-generation transportation network.

When the first generation Dyson membrane is built around 2200 and mass-energy conversion technology becomes a reality, a large number of ordinary people will become engineers.

This step uses strong ropes to build a framework for the blood vessel network, which requires a large number of workers to complete manually.

Afterwards, Fanxing, who possesses super quantum intelligence, will take over most of the remaining work and control the large-scale engineering robot with the function of mass-energy conversion to walk along the ropeway and build a road.

Large-scale construction robots that can both produce materials and complete construction continuously require only a small number of human operators.

According to Ryan's plan, as long as there are enough engineering robots, the first generation vascular network will be completed within 2300 at the latest.

Ryan's second design is a vision of a vascular network.

The first-generation vascular network in the solar system relied on ultra-vacuum and electromagnetic power for propulsion to obtain material transport speeds up to one-third of the speed of light.

The orbital trunk line of the second generation blood vessel network will be established in the curvature subspace under the gravity line, which can reach up to twenty times the speed of light. The coverage of the blood vessel network will be enlarged to tens of light years, or even hundreds of light years. spread to the entire Orion Arm.

The third-generation blood vessel network is based on technology similar to Stargate. By utilizing triple space, it can achieve ultra-fast material delivery similar to Stargate transmission, and can even be spread throughout the galaxy.

As for the fourth generation, that is Ryan’s theoretical ultimate goal. It is based on the grand unified theory that mankind has personally established its own cosmic-level fast track that is completely different from curvature and warp space. The ultimate speed of the third curvature space, which is 25,000 times the speed of light, is just the basis.

Sorry for being fifteen minutes late.
