Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 177 Two Years
In the 39th year of the Xinyuan era,
The first phase of the 24-year Mars terraforming project has been successfully completed, and the first permanent worm bridge has been built in the Undying City. However, it has not been made public, and only a very few people know about this channel.

For the humans living on Mars, the only feeling was that supplies had suddenly become abundant; some types of transport airships seemed to have arrived yesterday and returned today.

Weird!

But no one bothered to investigate further.

Because everyone trusts Xiling, her explanation for the situation was that she couldn't reveal anything for the time being and asked people not to ask too many questions.

Previously, people had received similar responses, such as the puzzling anomalies caused by the aftershocks of a water droplet explosion sweeping across Earth.
Xiling initially told everyone that she couldn't reveal the details for the time being, but only explained the background and reasons for not being able to disclose them a few days later, thus building up the public's trust in her answer.

All future plans for the Central Building are transparent, but there are some things that need to be kept from the Trisolaran civilization and therefore cannot be announced. This is a statement that Jiang Fan had already made in the Second World.

Rather than hiding it, it's better to be frank and say that this issue cannot be discussed for the time being. The reason is simple: the Trisolaran civilization cannot be allowed to know.

This is how the mutual trust between the City of Dawn and all of humanity was established.

Xiling never responds to human questions with phrases like, "This question involves so-and-so and has been blocked."
If something cannot be disclosed at the moment, she will directly state "cannot be disclosed at the moment," instead of acting as if it were only sophisticated to keep certain things from the public, as was the case during the United Nations era.

Looking down at Mars from high above in an anti-gravity spacecraft.
On this planet, spanning millions of miles of red earth, clusters of green have already appeared.

Groundwater, after being excavated, gushed to the surface, circulating throughout the entire city of wanderers, and eventually spreading in all directions, creating conditions for the expansion of vegetation.

The original Wanderer became the core area of ​​this place, and the Wandering City is the sixth major human settlement. Its full completion marks the completion of the first phase of Mars terraforming.

It is foreseeable that, with the support of unlimited nuclear fusion energy, the surface environment of Mars will gradually be covered with greenery, starting from the wandering city.

Dawn, Freedom, Faith, Steel, Unyielding, Wandering: These six mega-cities, each with a permanent population exceeding 4 million, represent the essence of human civilization.

In the 40th year of the Xinyuan era,
The central building has approved a plan to build the seventh major city for mankind, namely an energy city on Titan.

Humanity is no longer satisfied with transporting nuclear fusion materials by spaceships or warships. As its name suggests, the Energy City exists to provide a continuous supply of nuclear fusion materials for civilization!

By building a worm bridge on Titan, human civilization will be able to maximize the use of helium-3 in Saturn's atmosphere!

In a short time, the number of applicants to travel to Titan received by the central building exceeded ten million.
This is not to say that humanity in the new era possesses a lofty spirit of self-sacrifice and hard work.

These people simply can't stay on Earth anymore!
In addition, in the new era, thanks to the existence of Xiling and engineering robots, the construction process is almost completely free from human labor, so why wouldn't everyone want to go?
The greatest role humans can play in the construction process is to exercise their aesthetic sense and think about what kind of building they want to create.

Can you believe that the entire Ministry of Construction's mission wasn't construction, but rather design and development of engineering robots?

Furthermore, this development is not development in the conventional sense.
Instead, the idea was to propose what kind of engineering machines should be built for what purpose under what circumstances.

How to manufacture such a machine was not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Construction.

The physics research department, materials department, and AI department will handle the task, and then they will upload all the data to the Second World.

As an integrated platform, Xiling undertakes all downstream work. Therefore, some jokingly say that the Construction Department could be renamed the Construction Art Department, which means the Department of Construction Art.

Zhou Yuan, chief engineer of the construction department, refuted this,

"You're allowed to enjoy life, but we're not allowed to get rid of manual labor? That's pure prejudice!"

Elderly people who experienced the labor of the old era often feel a sense of nostalgia upon seeing this message.
"In the past, the construction department did all the dirty and hard work and didn't even get any reward. Now the construction department is really fancy, it's unbelievable."

Others replied below,

"In the past, farmers and workers were called the foundation, or to put it bluntly, the bottom of society. Of course, they could only do dirty and hard work. All the glamorous things were used by them to save face!"

“I agree. In my view of the people of the old era, apart from the leaders, no one thought about actually reducing the labor burden of farmers and workers.”

"Yes, some people are even advocating that robots will replace all low-level labor, thus creating a large number of unemployed people. This logic is simply absurd!"

"To be honest, I don't understand what those people are thinking. Since machines are doing what humans do, shouldn't humans be free to do whatever they want? Why would they talk about unemployment?"

"Upstairs, did you never experience the era of monetary transactions?"

"No, how so?"

"You should look at the living conditions of the old era. Robot projects were not meant to reduce the burden on humans, but to generate profits. To put it simply, the companies that manufacture robots hope to replace humans and thus plunder the profits that humans have."

"That's right. In their logic, they need money to develop robots, and that money needs to be squeezed out of others, who are naturally the bottom layer."

"But what do they need so much money for? Can they possibly use it all?"

"A quick glance at the new generation reveals the cannibalistic phenomenon before the emergence of leaders: what they wanted was more money than they could spend, which they then left to their descendants, ensuring that their descendants would also have more money than they could spend. But then the question arises: money represents material wealth, but where does this material wealth come from?"

"Just a quick aside, think about the ancient aristocratic system, except they replaced direct material goods with indirect money. Do you young people understand that?"

"I see. No wonder no one misses the era before the New Age. They've never even heard of it."

"Hahaha, why reminisce about it? Do you still want to work yourself to the bone to benefit others? Young people should take a look at President Jiang's speech back then. How many people scoffed at it? Nobody understood President Jiang's ambition!"

"Add one, I just reviewed it again. I wonder if those people are embarrassed now. Their thoughts are too vulgar in the face of such a great ideal."

"Back then, some people actually called out to President Jiang, saying that what President Jiang said was just motivational fluff. Does anyone really want to give up being a superior person? It's laughable."

"Indeed, with the Trisolaran civilization like wolves and tigers on the outside and the internal contradictions of humanity, it is hard to imagine the working environment of the Wallfacers at that time."

"So, the wallbreakers of Rediaz did a good thing, and the ETO organization did a good thing! That is to eliminate all the old nobles before President Jiang woke up and directly enter the new era in one step."
