Arms not strong enough? Change to a mechanical arm. Giving birth too slow? Grow in the culture tank. Arguing for a long time without reaching an agreement? Connect the brain to communicate directly. Will the brain explode? Use the chip to replace the brain …
When all the parts of a person were replaced, the only thing that could represent the person was his thoughts. But when thoughts could be replicated and mass-produced, the only thing left in the world would be efficiency, and the purpose of efficiency would be survival.
But what was the purpose of survival?
…
Lin Chaoen chose to self-destruct, along with the 71 bodies in the hibernation chamber.
Perhaps he had comprehended something at the very last moment. He was very calm when he made this choice, and he didn't even have the slightest reluctance.
Jiang Chen only lowered his gun to his choice but didn't make him stay.
He hugged the crying Lin Lin in his arms and didn't know how to comfort her. He just leaned over and whispered in her ear before he carried her out of the deathly silent fallout shelter.
Jiang Chen ordered the soldiers of the First Division to move the quantum computer and other equipment in the fallout shelter. As to the 70 hibernation chambers and the culture tank, after asking for Lin Lin's opinion, he left them underground.
Because Dr. Lin Minjie was dead, the fallout shelter lost its only manager, and its functions came to a standstill. The door of the fallout shelter could no longer be closed. To prevent anyone from disturbing his eternal sleep, Jiang Chen gave him his last dignity.
500 kilograms of explosives detonated underground, collapsing the entire tunnel and completely burying the fallout shelter 3000 meters underground.
Although the civilization died before it was born, it was still a tombstone belonging to the civilization and deserved the last respect.
It was supreme, but it was destined to be high and few.
He was a great scientist, there was no doubt about it.
From the Lin fallout shelter, NAC seized an experimental quantum computer, and the scientists at Fallout Shelter 027 were ecstatic. The crowded quantum computer was finally freed from overload, which would be a huge improvement to the scientific research efficiency of the entire NAC.
The warp drive thesis was given to Jiang Lin by Jiang Chen, who had always been fascinated by the research. If the hundred-page thesis could bring him some inspiration, it would be a great contribution to the entire NAC … no, the entire Earth civilization.
If Natural Selection was destined to reach Earth, humans with warp drive would have the ability to fight back. And if they couldn't win, they could still escape.
Of course, if possible, Jiang Chen still wanted to solve this problem.
Regardless, the modern world was his home.
…
Northwest of Shenxiang, at the intersection of Taifu River and Dianshan Lake.
About one kilometer from the lake, more than ten trucks were parked on the cracked rural road. The slaves carried the steel bars to the wasteland, and under the instructions of the engineer who held the blueprints, they inserted the steel bars into the designated places.
The steel bars formed a circle with a diameter of several kilometers. The excavator was plowing in this circular area, starting from the center, moving piles of soil onto the truck and transporting it to the open space two kilometers away.
In the middle of the cement pit stood a concrete column with a diameter of about five meters. This cylinder was connected to steel bars like the bearings of a wheel, extending to the periphery of the circular pit. At the same time, a drainage pipe with a graphite filter layer was installed at the bottom of the cylinder, and the periphery of the millstone was connected to the water treatment plant.
It was like a huge millstone.
Trucks would dump the soil here and pour in purified water from an automated water treatment plant a few kilometers away.
Just yesterday, the Hunter Corps cleared the Bug Vehicle Nest in the water treatment plant and brought the water treatment plant under NAC's control. Although the nuclear fusion batteries stored in the water treatment plant were enough to run the water treatment plant for two years, it was still a problem to leave the water treatment plant abandoned. The construction of the Garden of Eden required a large amount of pure water, and this pure water would be supplied through the newly laid pipelines.
The soil, pure water, and treatment solution were stirred into a slurry under the operation of the millstone. The toxins and radioactive residues in the soil were washed into the Dianshan Lake through a continuous stream of water. Through this rough washing method, the soil was diluted and purified, and about 3,000 cubic meters of soil could be processed every three days.
Soil purification was the first step of the Garden of Eden Project.
Although soil could be transported from the modern world, to build a Garden of Eden with a diameter of five kilometers would require an astronomical amount of soil. With the size of Xin's territory, it would not be easy to obtain that much soil. Even if it was imported through customs, it would be difficult to explain where the soil went.
If it could be solved in the apocalypse, it would be better to rely on materials from the apocalypse. Since the NAC had already obtained the unquestionable dominance in Wanghai, no matter how messy the construction was, NAC's financial resources and influence would be able to achieve it.
This soil purification system was only the first one. Jiang Chen would deploy ten more around the Dianshan Lake.
Lin Lin looked at the rotating disc, her hand gently pressed on her collar, and she recalled what Jiang Chen said to her in despair three days ago.
"Help me build a Garden of Eden, just on the edge of Shenxiang. The soil there is good. After planting mutated fruits and Carm tree sap for more than half a year, the pollution and radiation levels there have decreased a lot. Although the toxicity is still high, it will be much easier to modify. "
Jiang Chen paused, then continued.
"Maybe after many years, this place will be full of flowers and birds again."
Perhaps it will be more beautiful than the scenery before the war.
A smile appeared on Lin Lin's face as she silently added in her mind.
Surprisingly, the sadness that had accumulated in her chest dissipated quite a bit.
The war was finally over.
The mutant nests in the city center turned into dust under the bombardment of tungsten rods, and the small nests in the suburbs were also gradually being eliminated. Every day, NAC would send no less than 500 "cleaners" armed with flamethrowers and heavy machine guns. With the cooperation of armored vehicles, they would eliminate the remaining nests in the sewers and buildings.
At the same time, NAC also posted an official reward through the Mercenary Union at the Sixth Street. Any marked mutant nests were registered on the map. As long as the combat video of the nest was provided and reviewed by the union, they could receive a reward of 1000-2000 credits.
The entire West District of Wanghai turned from the most dangerous hunting ground on the wasteland to a relatively safe place in the entire Suhang Province.
And this Garden of Eden would become the most beautiful place in the entire Suhang Province and even the entire wasteland in the future.
"In three months, the Garden of Eden will complete soil purification, and the foundation by the lake will also be completed. In a month, the atmospheric isolation film will be deployed, and the first phase of the Garden of Eden project will be completed. "A proud smile appeared on Lin Lin's face as she watched Jiang Chen walk beside her.
"Four months? Then the cannons by the lake, the dock, and the fortifications by the river will also be reinforced. "Looking into the distance, Jiang Chen also smiled.
Lin Lin rolled her eyes at Jiang Chen. "Can you not say these things that spoil the mood?"
"In order to protect this delicate flower, guns are essential," Jiang Chen said with his eyes narrowed.
After a pause, Jiang Chen looked at Lin Lin, smiled, and continued, "But this kind of indecent thing, leave it to me."
Lin Lin's cheeks turned slightly red as she looked away.
"Well … whatever you want."
Once the first Garden of Eden was established, food production could be self-sufficient in the apocalypse. At least rice, wheat, and some cash crops could be directly produced in the apocalypse. Although the cost might be slightly higher, it was undoubtedly a good start.
Then the second one.
The new ecosphere would be like a string of tightly connected bubbles located on the wasteland. At first, the space here would only be used to produce food, then it would be developed into a residential area …
The population of the Sixth Street was increasing. They couldn't always rely on Jiang Chen as a "food transporter". Although it was feasible in theory, it was not stable in the long run.
Self-sufficiency in production would be the first step towards order.
It was a step that must be taken sooner or later.
