This did not mean that Meng Chao wanted to escape from the Other World.
After all, Earthlings had been rooted in the Other World for more than half a century. They absorbed the spirit energy and monster genes in this place and evolved into a brand new civilization that was different from Earth's. They also gave birth to superhumans, spirit energy technology, runic symbol machines, and biochemical modification technology.
The Other World had long since become Dragon Citizens' new home.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Meng Chao did not want to leave this place. Instead, he decided to give up everything he had to change the Other World into a second Earth.
Besides, even if he could really transmigrate to a third habitable planet …
The living environment there might be even worse than in the Other World.
After all, based on Meng Chao's memories from his previous life, the locals in the Other World were all semi-civilized races.
Even if they ate raw meat and hunted humans, they could still communicate with them. They had a strange but self-justifying way of thinking.
What if there were powerful existences lurking in the other habitable planets that could not be named, did not speak reason or logic, and were even more chaotic than the Extraordinary Demons of the Other World?
'Unless it's absolutely necessary, the Other World is still the best second home for Earthlings. The level of the intelligent life forms here is slightly lower than that of Earth, but some of their individual fighting strength is above ours. They're perfect for us to train our soldiers,' Meng Chao thought.
'Even if Project 101 can really develop controllable transmigration technology, there's no need for us to be afraid before we even fight and run away so soon.
'We can use the locals of the Other World to sharpen Earth's civilization and continuously break the limits of life and technology so that our civilization can become incredibly strong. Then, we can gather the power of Earth and the Other World and head to other planets. This is the best way to spread the flames of civilization under the most ideal circumstances.
'Of course, we should come up with a plan to flee again … No, we should come up with a plan as soon as possible. If no one can stop the apocalypse, at the very least, we'll still have the ability to change our strategy.
'While we have a way out, we'll act as a troublemaker for the Other World races. No, we'll act as an offshore balancer. That'll be a richer and calmer strategic choice.'
With that thought in mind, Meng Chao realized that the changes Project 101 brought to human civilization might be much greater than he thought.
If the Broken Star Club members had money, they could continue investing in Project 101.
In a sense, this was like buying a "second life" with money.
Also, he should build a good relationship with Professor Lu Tianxing. While following him and seriously practicing , he should also gain a deeper understanding of the details of controllable transmigration technology, the truth behind the , and the research project that involved rebirth.
There was one thing that caught Meng Chao's attention.
Professor Lu Tianxing's original words were, "Even if we can never return to Earth, as long as we remember Earth, we can build countless planets into a new Earth."
Strange, if the "hyperspace engine" and "controllable transmigration technology" are both real, why is it "impossible to return to Earth"?
After all, they had transmigrated from Earth. They should be very familiar with this "interstellar travel". Compared to the third unknown planet, the difficulty of transmigrating to Earth should be the lowest.
He recalled how Zhou Tianshui had said with a ferocious expression when he fought against him that the Home Party's proposal was just a pipe dream and that Earth would never give them any support.
Zhou Tianshui was bewitched by the Demonic Abyss Eye.
But Meng Chao had a feeling that he was telling the truth.
There was something fishy about it.
By the looks of it, Professor Lu Tianxing knew something.
The reason why they could not transmigrate back to Earth was definitely not because they were afraid of bringing the viruses, spores, monsters, and deities from the Other World back to Earth.
However, if Professor Lu Tianxing was not willing to tell him, no matter how he tried to beat around the bush, he would not be able to get the answer.
He could only wait until they were familiar with each other and get some investments for Project 101 through the Broken Star Club. Then, he would see whether he had the chance to enter the depths of the Supernatural Tower and personally witness the secrets of the ruins research center.
With this thought in mind, Meng Chao agreed to Zhao Feixuan's request.
But he would not allow himself to be taken advantage of.
It was not a problem for him to introduce Project 101 and the Home Party's ideas to the Broken Star Club members.
But the Blue Home members should also understand the secrets of the Ultimate Style or invest in and sponsor the Ultimate Style's public welfare promotion and commercial operations.
After all, compared to returning to Earth, which would take forever, the Ultimate Style's effects could be seen immediately. It could immediately increase the fighting strength of a large number of middle-grade and low-grade superhumans.
Zhao Feixuan had long since witnessed the benefits of the Ultimate Style from his wife.
The doctor told him that if it were not for the fact that Ms. Xiao Fanghua's branch meridians were all cleared and her spirit energy could seep into her organs in a delicate and gentle manner, it would have been difficult for her twins to survive the intense stimulation from the smoke, poisonous fog, acid, and monster invasion.
Since the Ultimate Style was the real deal, Zhao Feixuan did not feel any burden when he promoted it.
The two of them soon came to an agreement. They believed that if they worked together, Blue Home and the Broken Star Club would be able to move forward and become one of the most important forces that supported Dragon City.
"By the way, there's one more thing. Blessed Heavenly Garden's defense system has been upgraded. I think we'll be able to accept it soon, right?"
Once they were done talking about the cooperation between the organizations, Meng Chao asked another question.
He had to finish what he started. Since he was prepared to move out of Blessed Heavenly Garden, he had to be responsible for the neighbors who had lived with him for decades. He had to solve the problem of their safety so that his parents and sister could stay at ease in the new house.
"I was about to talk to you about this. The main part of the project is already done. We're just left with some finishing touches. We'll have to paint the forts, electric towers, anti-aircraft machine guns, and other things. We don't have to make the militaristic colors that we usually use," Zhao Feixuan said.
"If you want to accept it, you can do it at any time. But I have an idea. You're from Agricultural University and you've helped the abnormal beast research department before, right? You must be familiar with the monster research department. Could you get a batch of monsters over so that we can test it in a practical battle?"
"A practical battle?"
Meng Chao was a little stunned. "Is there a need for that?"
"We'll only know if they're mules or horses after we take them out for a walk," Zhao Feixuan said.
Zhao Feixuan said. "You know that I've just gathered a group of people to work on it alone. The company isn't famous in the industry yet, so if we use the normal method to accept the project, we might not be able to attract the attention of the other communities. It'll also be difficult for us to get a full budget from the Survival Committee.
"Blue Home and the Broken Star Club have hundreds of thousands of members. Among them are politicians, news workers, internet celebrities who dabble in social media, and grassroots workers who are rooted in the communities. If you can get a batch of monsters for a practical battle test, we can mobilize a group of influential members to observe. As long as we fight beautifully, we'll definitely become famous. At that time, we won't have to worry about not having new orders."
"Well, I can help you contact the monster research department and get a batch of modified monsters. It won't be a problem."
Meng Chao thought about it and said, "That's right. If we really want to push forward with the plan to upgrade the defense system in all areas, we have to fight beautifully. If the monsters break through the defense line you meticulously built in front of the politicians, the media, and the representatives of the other communities, it'll be really awkward."
"That's impossible."
Zhao Feixuan puffed out his chest and gritted his teeth. "I'm with the defense line. If the monsters really want to rush into Blessed Heavenly Garden, they'll have to do it over my dead body!"
With the Home Party's politicians adding fuel to the fire, the idea to accept the practical battle test was soon approved.
In truth, based on the problems exposed during the ambush of the new zombies and the undead, the upgrading of the defense system in the old residential areas was something that could not be delayed.
It has to be known that during the fight in the south of the city that night, more than ten old residential areas were destroyed and polluted. Nearly one hundred thousand citizens lost their homes and could only temporarily stay in settlements made of simple houses and tents.
These temporary settlements were cramped, had terrible environments, and were so crude that their defense systems were practically non-existent. They also became breeding grounds for fungi, viruses, and spores, so it was very easy for a new wave of super zombies and undead disasters to break out.
The preliminary statistics showed that if they did not include the residential areas that had been destroyed over the past few years and had not been rebuilt yet, and if they did not include the permanent residents of the squatters like Golden Tooth Lair, the number of affected citizens who lost their homes during the two monster invasions numbered to hundreds of thousands.
With so many people staying in the temporary settlements, it brought great pressure to Dragon City's social order and economic development.
If the abnormal beasts released the zombie virus and Blood Flower spores again and a large number of old residential areas could not last, Dragon City's financial budget and social order might really collapse.
To prevent this from happening, a lot of powerful fighters, politicians, entrepreneurs, and workers from related departments gathered in Blessed Heavenly Garden.
Tiger Forest Region, where Blessed Heavenly Garden was located, also sent a working group led by a vice district director to observe and provide guidance.
Tiger Forest Region was an old residential area located at the center of Dragon City. More than 30% of the old residential areas in the city were gathered there.
The defense system was unreasonable, the escape facilities were old, the average age of the residents was rather old, and their fighting strength was rather low.
The fierce battle that took place in the southern part of the city half a month ago caused everyone in Tiger Forest Region to break out in a cold sweat.
If a super zombie and undead horde of a similar scale erupted in Tiger Forest Region, the consequences would be even worse than the battle in the south.
Hence, the district was very optimistic about the project to upgrade the defense system in old residential areas, and they supported it.
As long as the practical test today proved that Blessed Heavenly Garden's defense could really increase by leaps and bounds, the district was willing to mobilize the businesses in the region to sponsor the funds for the subsequent modifications and fight for more budget from the Survival Committee.
Also, there were representatives from the Red Dragon Army.
To reduce costs, the weapons and equipment Zhao Feixuan bought were second-hand goods that the Red Dragon Army had discarded.
Even though these old weapons were not enough to fight against the monster horde that filled the area, they were still useful in urban warfare.
They could be used to the best of their abilities to fight against small monster hordes that occasionally crawled in through the space-time rifts, zombies, and undead.
To change from tactical defense to tactical offense, the Red Dragon Army was changing their equipment completely and getting rid of a lot of their weapons and equipment.
If they could use them to upgrade the defenses of residential areas, both sides would be able to save a lot of costs and resources, and it would be a win-win situation.
