Chapter 676 Calming the Dead Sea
The situation is somewhat strange.

The way to communicate with the sun is essentially a stellar channel. The White King found an energy parallel based on an artificial sun and used the sun's eye to complete mutual observation and interaction.

The White King stated unequivocally, "The Fire Collector, no one else uses the Sun Eye; I can identify the Connector."

Zhou Yi fell into deep thought.

First, we exclude normal individual lives.

Yagami is busy operating the Gem Transformers to modify the moon's atmosphere. When contacted, she had no idea what was happening here. (Rule out.)

The Twin Towers on the Moon, already dormant for many years before the awakening of Night God due to a lack of batteries and components, cannot function without the influx of 151 new Celestials. Eliminated.

Zhou Yi initially considered the Earth's Great Holy Spirit as the fourth party in this silent endeavor. However, this idea was immediately abandoned because it could not enter the stellar passage.

Could it be that some distant sun has connected to this local area network?

Zhou Yi asked the golden tree, "What shape and appearance does it have?"

I know it exists, but bound by the strings, I can't discern it clearly.

When did it appear?

It's been there ever since our first conversation.

Zhou Yi was completely baffled.

Could it be that the white Suanni was identified by the golden tree?
He immediately told Xiaofu about it and sought advice from the tracing expert.

“Da Zhou, it might be referring to me…”

“We are two consciousnesses of the same machine. So when you access the stellar channel through the Sun Eye, I am actually there too, but I am not being used, so I cannot obtain this information.”

Zhou Yi tried to add Xiao Fu to the group chat as well.

"Is that it?"

"I am Xiao Fu, the 'Tracer of the Flow,' and also a follower of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Hello everyone."

That's it.

Zhou Yi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as it's not some other unknowable individual.

That being the case.

Zhou Yi decided to let Xiaofu participate in the discussion as well.

Xiaofu's addition to the group chat had an immediate effect. It excels at technical breakdown, able to describe phenomena observed from different perspectives using common, universal techniques.

The previous discussions were limited to casual conversation.

After Xiaofu joined, everyone's conversations began to shift towards work, and many feasible areas for collaboration emerged.

The Dead Sea renovation, which is of most concern to Zhou Yi.

The description of this golden tree is very vague.

The strings are locked.

Unable to control movement.

The string is in the dominant direction.

Xiao Fu immediately understood: "You mean, the String Civilization has used the [String] to directionally control the direction of your energy, so you can't control your movement?"

【Yes. 】

"Currently, our technology cannot remove the string civilization from the source of the sun. The technology we can achieve is to purify the circular flow that the sun projects onto other celestial bodies through the [string light surface], and intercept and remove the strings as far as possible from the atmosphere."

The tracing agent said, "But there is actually another application, which is consciousness export."

"The civilization to which the White King originally belonged used this method to guide the consciousness of 4444 million natives into its foundation, thereby completing the escape from the existing destroyed world."

“We can use an artificial sun to extract your consciousness in batches, but it depends on whether you value intensity or freedom more.”

“If you leave the Golden Tree, the source of your being, you will have much less energy available, but you will have greater freedom and will not be locked up.”

Zhou Yi then went along with it, saying, "If you need, we can create even more artificial suns as carriers for your clones. You can fly on any celestial body or travel through space, just like the sun originally radiates across a vast area of ​​the universe. Perhaps this would be more suitable for you."

"Since the Great Zhou has said so, it must be true."

Xiao Fu immediately chimed in: "Any area within this galaxy that the sun can radiate is within your range of movement. Your ability to utilize the sun's energy in parallel is absolutely top-tier. After all, it's your own stuff."

"It's like a locked planet projecting itself outwards, continuing to move and interact with the outside world. Even if it's only a part of it, it's beneficial to the growth of your self-awareness, and you should be aware of that yourself."

【…】

There was a long silence on the other end of the Golden Tree.

Can you help me find other members of my kind? Whether they're stars or golden trees, it doesn't matter.

In this regard, Zhou Yi asked the professional, King Bai, to answer.

"can."

The White King said, "The closest star to our solar system is Proxima Centauri, which is about 4.246 light-years away. It belongs to the Alpha Centauri star system, which is a triple star system consisting of three stars."

It immediately explained many of the definitions and concepts.

Concepts such as light-years and galaxies are theoretical systems from the old human scientific system.

That's very close.

Can you send me there? With that little box you made?

Zhou Yi said, "Of course."

However, the speed of an artificial sun is far from the speed of light.

In conventional flight, the artificial sun can reach speeds close to 1% of the speed of light, which is also the limit of the photonuclear body—or the nuclear fusion stage at that energy level.

It would take 430 years to reach the vicinity of Proxima Centauri.

This is still in theory. The actual situation is not so ideal. It is impossible to maintain an extremely high load state along the way. In addition, the journey in space is unknown. There is always the possibility of being hit by meteorites and high-energy radiation, or even encountering micro black holes. The actual time will be more than three times the theoretical time.

Your life form is just too troublesome...

Zhou Yi said, "There is another way, which is to gradually explore through the sun's eye and travel through the space hole."

At his prompting, the White King continued, "The Sun Eye can locate the sun and find the shortest path to it. However, the farther away from the observation point, the higher the precision of the Sun Eye needs to be, and the higher the energy consumption will be."

“Currently, 640 pupils are sufficient to observe the Sun within this galaxy, and can scan the surrounding space holes that enter the Sun. However, if we want to observe Proxima Centauri and the passage from here to there, we need at least 1920 solar eyes to observe neighboring star systems across the galaxy.”

【I do not understand.】

"Simply put, my solar eye needs further upgrades. Each upgrade greatly increases the complexity and precision of the solar eye itself, and the upgrade project is also very time-consuming."

"640 of them are Class I solar optics, while 1920 are Class III solar optics. According to the conventional method, it is estimated that it will take ten years to build and calibrate them."

[It sounds like the time has been shortened, so let's use this method.]

What do you need me to do?

Previously, Zhou Yi felt that the golden tree, which had been forcibly awakened and matured, didn't seem very intelligent, and that communicating with it felt like talking to a child.

It then demonstrated a keen awareness, knowing that it also needed to contribute its own strength in exchange for something else.

The growth rate is astonishingly fast.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a collection of cosmic consciousness.

Zhou Yi stated frankly: "We need your strength to help us transform the Dead Sea, stabilize the Dead Sea Lord, and ultimately win the all-out war against the invasion and colonization of the Celestials."

[The beginning is fine. But if we defeat the Celestials, won't the String Civilization emerge from within me? That's not what you want to see, is it?]

Or do you have other plans?

Zhou Yi muttered to himself.

This guy suddenly became very sharp.

It seems its previous dullness stemmed more from not having found a way to communicate with itself. As a golden tree, it truly doesn't need this kind of dialogue with the outside world.

It is rapidly integrating communication, a social skill.

It only took a few hours from start to finish.

I've already become quite skilled at it.

It's like accessing a wasteland era's channel database... Core life forms born from the sun are indeed exceptionally gifted and uniquely endowed.

Zhou Yi said, "We don't want to destroy the Celestials, but to transform them and eliminate their colonial rule over the wasteland era of Earth. The specific strategy is to make them a part of us, instead of their current high and mighty slave owner status."

【no problem. 】

I understand what you're trying to do, so I can cooperate effectively.

A preliminary cooperation agreement has been finalized.

Their first collaboration was to transform the Dead Sea.

The company's original plan for the Dead Sea's transformation and floating project was to gradually test the waters, using an artificial sun to help the Dead Sea float to the surface and evenly cover the sky above the Earth's surface.

But the Golden Tree offers a more direct and effective method.

That's not necessary.

[Simply expand the energy orbit.]

[By gathering your man-made objects and sending them between the sun and the earth, forming a straight line, and aligning them, you can intercept the energy within the circular flow, enough to cover an area more than 30 times larger than the current one.]

Guided by the "Eye of the Sun," the second artificial sun made this attempt. It flew into space and, with the combined adjustments of the Golden Tree and the White King, found and stabilized its cosmic coordinates.

As expected, a single artificial sun was enough to achieve what previously required 32 suns, covering 39.5% of the Earth's surface, with more dead light being refracted and collected.

Unfortunately, artificial solar energy has a limited capacity to withstand a unit of dead light energy. The cost of expanding coverage is a reduction in the intensity of the solar current.

However, with the addition of the third and fourth suns, through the alignment of the three stars and their relay effect, layer upon layer of death light refraction and reflection, these three artificial suns ultimately covered nearly 40% of the Earth's surface.

By calculating and adjusting the angle, it is possible to directionally refract certain areas of the ground, eliminating surface dead light in a simpler and more thorough way than the previous method of making dead light float.

Additionally, it can project the death ray directionally onto a specific area, creating an artificial circular flow region. This involves intercepting and redirecting energy along its trajectory, allowing for controlled reconfiguration of circular flow patterns on Earth.

This project is inseparable from the support of the golden tree.

Under normal circumstances, an artificial sun of the photonic core level would be unable to withstand the surging energy tide and would be destroyed and collapse instantly.

It was also because the Source Golden Tree, based on its own energy cycle, chose the weakest cycle and spatial coordinates, and utilized two one-dimensional spatial holes to bend and distribute the pressure. Only through precise coordination both internally and externally could this task be finally completed.

……

The Dead Sea relocation and reconstruction project has now entered a mature stage.

The light mist of the past has completely receded around the sand port, leaving only some Dead Sea depressions where the light-breathing species who do not wish to relocate can settle.

Zhou Yi sat on the sofa and opened his notebook.

The section on "Renovating the Dead Sea" is included.

Completed.

Cross it out.

Next, there's only one last thing left.

— Transforming humanity and nature.

Zhou Yi looked out the window.

That day won't be too far away.
