Chapter 33 Choice
The celebrations in the floating city have a large flow of people, but most of them are concentrated in the center of the city.
In this city, the area closer to the atmospheric protective cover becomes more deserted. No one is willing to get close to this dangerous area. The only people here are patrols and surveillance without blind spots.
The patrol team is a group of guards responsible for protecting the safety of the atmospheric protective shield. As long as they are in this area, their rights are almost unlimited, and they can subdue or even kill any suspicious person.
Because for the residents here, there are two most important facilities in this floating city, which are the prerequisite for everyone to live a stable life.
One is the power core of the floating city. It is located at the deepest point of the entire island. Only the chief scientists and engineers can go there.
It is responsible for supplying energy to the entire city, and is also responsible for keeping the city from falling.
And the other one is this atmospheric protective cover.
It ensures that the air here is always in the right condition, and is also responsible for keeping the city safe from the horrific storms that occur every sixty years.
Even though today is a celebration day, the patrol team still has not relaxed its monitoring and patrol efforts.
At this time, the celebration was still going on steadily.
The synthetic man controlled by Li Wenyuan inspected all places in the floating city in less than a day.
At the same time, he also confirmed the residence of the "chief scientist" here and rushed there directly.
In this small floating city, every inch of land is precious, and even people of the "chief scientist" level live in a large apartment.
The door here still uses an old-fashioned electronic lock, and the synthetic man opened the door easily with a flash of his eyes.
As soon as they entered the room, the chief scientist, who had just returned from the celebration, bumped into the synthetic man.
For them who live here, there is no difference between the synthetics in front of them and "aliens".
"What are you?" When the chief scientist said this, he even took a step back unconsciously.
After all, if an alien enters the house, even if the chief scientist is well-informed, it is impossible to remain calm the first time.
"I am the guardian, the former owner of this place."
The synthetic man's fluent language stunned the chief scientist, and what he said next shocked him even more.
"I re-expanded into this galaxy and discovered you on this gas giant planet. I had no intention of interfering with your lives, but I need scientists now."
"I have roughly observed your technological level. To be honest, there is no difference between you and the 'aboriginals' now."
"But your level as a chief scientist is indeed remarkable, and I think you are valuable."
"If you are willing to work for me, I can help you solve a problem. What do you think?"
The synthesizer's voice was calm from beginning to end, as if he didn't care about the chief scientist's answer.
This was indeed Li Wenyuan's idea. If the scientist didn't want to come, it didn't matter to him.
After all, he is just an "indigenous" scientist, and he will not waste too much time on it.
He has already started building a star base in this galaxy, and will also build an invisible observatory to observe this floating city, thereby providing samples for sociological research.
And this is the only place in this galaxy that can attract his attention.
The chief scientist spent a long time digesting the synthetic man's words, and through observation, he had discovered that the "alien" in front of him was actually a kind of robot.
Robots of this kind of precision only existed in science fiction novels in his civilization, so he soon believed the words of the synthetics.
So he took a deep breath and tentatively stated his request:
"This...respected 'Guardian', can you take all of us, or some of us, away from here to a habitable planet?"
He felt that his whimsical idea might offend the civilization that called itself the "Guardian", but he still had to give it a try.
Because for their race, there is no future development in this floating city, and they will most likely be "trapped" in this city until the civilization dies.
Li Wenyuan also glanced at him, controlled the synthesizer, shook his head and said:
"Your value is not enough for me to behave like this. Even if I have compassion for your lives, I have plans for every planet under my control."
"And you," at this point, the synthetic man glanced at the chief scientist.
"The overall quality of your species cannot be called efficient. If you want to live on a planet under my control, I think each of you must at least reach your level."
"Of course, I can also meet your needs in another way. I will provide a colony ship and supporting star map. It can accommodate all of you, and has a stable circulation system and energy supply, which can be used in the interstellar
The voyage is a long one."
"But I will not provide a protective force. All the troubles you encounter in the interstellar can only be solved by yourself."
"You can also choose not to leave and continue to stay here with your race. I will not interfere with any of your actions."
"..." The guardian's words caused the chief scientist to fall into silence for a while.
Of course, he didn't think that this alien civilization would be kind enough to send all of them to a habitable planet, but the unexpected result still surprised him.
"...I need to discuss this matter with the people. Can you wait for a while? You will get the results in up to three days."
"Of course, I'll be here until I get an answer."
"Thank you for your generosity..."
After the chief scientist finished speaking, he hurriedly left the room, and Li Wenyuan also temporarily focused his attention elsewhere.
The resources consumed by a colonial ship were negligible to him now, and he felt it was worth it in exchange for the loyalty of a capable scientist.
But now there is another thing that worries him very much.
"... This galaxy is highlighted on the ancient star map, but I didn't find anything worthy of attention here."
"The civilization on this mining station is also a recent outsider, and there is nothing special about it."
"Is there something else in this galaxy that I haven't discovered yet..."
With this thought in mind, he looked towards the middle of the galaxy, the asteroid belt.
There are a large number of asteroids here, making it a good place to mine minerals.
Also because there were too many asteroids here, Li Wenyuan only made a rough exploration and then focused on other locations.
Now, the space base located above the star is being intensively constructed through engineering ships, which will soon mark the inclusion of this galaxy under his control.
"...So is there anything special among these asteroids?" He controlled the scientific research spacecraft and gradually approached the asteroid belt.
And one of the asteroids that was very far away actually trembled slightly at this time.
Some extremely dim green fluorescence began to slowly overflow from the cracks in the rock.
