MM Racing Chapter 14: The Second Interdimensional Exploration Begins
Chapter 14: The Second Interdimensional Exploration Begins
Upon hearing Cheng Yuan's words, the Trisolaran Prime Minister said, "Your Excellency, Supreme Ruler, rest assured, we will not let our guard down."
Cheng Yuan nodded, then said, "Four groups will be established: the first group, the Brainwave Filtering Device Research Group, will specialize in researching brainwave filtering and shielding technology, and you, the Science Administrator, will be in charge."
"The second group, the 'Engineer's' spaceship towing group, is dedicated to researching how to transport the 'Engineer's' spaceships back from the alternate dimension. It is led by the Industrial Governor."
"The third group, the Extradimensional Reconnaissance Group, is responsible for reconnaissance of LV-223 and its star system. You, the Monitoring Administrator, will be in charge of this task."
"The fourth group, the Security Response Group, is responsible for protecting the safety of each group and developing plans to deal with attacks from extradimensional civilizations. It is overseen by the Sheriff and the Military Governor."
The four appointed consuls answered in unison, "We guarantee to complete the mission!"
Cheng Yuan further instructed: "The above matters must be kept confidential. All personnel involved must be strictly vetted to ensure that the information is not leaked. I do not want a situation like that of the No. 1379 eavesdropper to occur."
The Trisolaran leaders' brainwaves tingled, as they assured him, "Your Excellency, Supreme Ruler, that situation will never happen again!"
Cheng Yuan said, "That's good. I will open the multidimensional portal again after a Three-Body era. This time it will be open for a long time, so get ready."
The Trisolaran leaders bowed to Cheng Yuan in unison, then disappeared to attend to their own business.
Watching Cheng Yuan disappear from the venue, he was extremely excited. He had succeeded in his gamble and become the supreme leader of the Trisolaran civilization. Now the entire Trisolaran civilization would be at his disposal.
The voice of the intelligent life assistant CY-01 then sounded: "Your Excellency, it is lunchtime. Would you like to have lunch?"
Upon hearing the voice of the smart life assistant, Cheng Yuan realized that he was indeed a little hungry. His body was still mortal and he had not yet escaped the basic needs of eating, drinking, and excretion.
"Bring the food over."
Soon, a silver-white food cart drove into the room automatically. Cheng Yuan didn't even need to lift the lid; it flew to the side, revealing the food on the cart.
Besides the food, everything from the food carts to the plates and utensils are intelligent machines. They can thoughtfully deliver the food to Cheng Yuan's mouth whenever he wants.
This is truly a case of being waited on hand and foot!
When the lid was opened, a rich aroma filled the room.
This is a nutritious meal specially prepared for him by the Trisolarans. It tastes good and is also very nutritious.
The voice of the smart life assistant came through: "Your Excellency, if you are not satisfied with the food, we can replace it for you at any time."
"No need!" Cheng Yuan shook his head, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat.
After taking a few bites, Cheng Yuan felt something was missing. After thinking for a moment, he realized what it was.
When he eats alone, he likes to find some special "side dishes".
Cheng Yuan said, "Connect Zhi Zi to Luo Ji. I want to see Luo Ji."
The next moment, a scene appeared out of thin air in front of Cheng Yuan:
The scene depicts a meeting hall filled with many people, some of whom are arguing fiercely. A middle-aged man calmly observes the argument, as if it were none of his concern.
Tomoko gave a close-up of the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man had a cold and stern expression, with features as sharp as if carved by a knife. He wore a Chinese-style white long gown and had deep, unfathomable eyes, like a dry well.
At least in Cheng Yuan's view, it was a dry well!
Luo Ji, the current true ruler of the Trisolaran world; Cheng Yuan, the newly appointed supreme governor of the Trisolaran world; the two meet here from afar.
The people in the meeting hall were arguing about what benefits they should get from the Trisolaran civilization next. It seemed that in their eyes, the Trisolaran civilization had been completely conquered and could be taken from at will.
It was Luo Ji who defeated the Trisolarans, not you insects. With you insects around, how could human civilization possibly be well managed?
After watching for a while, Cheng Yuan felt sorry for Luo Ji. He was clearly the greatest contributor to saving human civilization, but not a single person in the audience truly respected him.
They placed Luo Ji on the platform only out of respect for the "sword" in Luo Ji's hand and his ability to deter the Trisolarans, not out of respect for Luo Ji himself.
However, this was quite amusing for Cheng Yuan, so he asked Zhizi to leave the venue and go see the scenery outside.
Having survived the apocalypse four years ago, the Earth is now filled with a relaxed and festive atmosphere. Material production has become more abundant with the development of technology, and people's lives have become better.
People were constantly talking about the Trisolarans or things related to them. As Zhi Zi walked quietly past them, she could hear that most of them were very disdainful of the Trisolaran civilization.
Some young people are clamoring for the entire Trisolaran race to be dehydrated, then transported to the Oort Cloud by cargo ships, and finally picked up by human ships and taken to the solar system.
Some people want the Trisolarans to kneel down as a tribute to the spirits of those who sacrificed themselves in the final battle.
Unlike those people in the venue, only four years have passed, and the public has not forgotten that it was Luo Ji who saved them from the apocalypse.
Many cities have erected statues of Luo Ji, and people passing by the statues will pay their respects in reverence. Almost every city has a "Luo Ji Square" or "Luo Ji Road".
Luo Ji's portrait was hung everywhere in the city, and slogans such as "Long live the great swordsman Luo Ji!" and "Mr. Luo Ji is the greatest hero in human history!" were posted.
People are keen on creating and worshipping gods, but they also like to pull gods down from their altars and trample them into the mud.
Decades from now, will they remember the worship and adoration they have for Luo Ji today?
Cheng Yuan found it interesting and had Zhi Zi check in at the hibernation pods of characters like Cheng Xin and Wade from the book. He didn't disturb anyone and just watched silently.
Of all the characters in the book, he admired Zhang Beihai the most, but unfortunately, Old Zhang is already dead.
After finishing his meal and taking a short rest, Cheng Yuan went to the experimental field of the space station to release a multi-dimensional portal.
After releasing the multidimensional portal, Cheng Yuan did not stay on site, but went to a specially made safe house to watch the real-time images transmitted back on the screen.
The Trisolarans were very efficient; they had mobilized enough manpower and equipment within a Trisolaran time.
Outside the space-time portal, which radiated a silvery-white light, Trisolarans and equipment were orderly entering the portal.
The second interdimensional exploration has officially begun!
The first thing that appears in the picture is the desolate land, with gray-brown rocks and gravel, devoid of any plants or animals, and a huge snow-covered mountain range standing not far away.
When the Trisolarans started working, they had a clear division of labor and worked in an orderly manner, like parts on a precision machine. Each Trisolaran knew exactly what he was supposed to do and could do it well.
Under their control, some equipment flew into the sky, some went underground, and more equipment headed towards the location of the "Engineers'" spaceship.
