“Dimensional Adaption… In other words, we might be able to restore the Firechaser’s intelligence?”
When Li Wenyuan handed this technology to the Lightchaser Civilization, this civilization leader was shocked.
According to the Administrator, the Firechaser might not have lost their intelligence because of a virus, but because they came from the previous universe and weren’t used to the current environment.
These things confused the Lightchaser, but he roughly understood that the Cradle’s special environment might have been caused by the Firechaser.
If they could restore Firechaser’s intelligence, many problems could be solved. They could even stop this shrinking world.
Box Novel.com“However… there are still difficulties. According to our analysis, the Dimensional Adaption technology requires specific analysis of specific problems. If it can be used on the Firechaser, we must delay the pace of the war and spend a lot of time studying the Firechaser and the secrets behind them.”
“Furthermore, this might not guarantee success. We have no experience in technology related to such a dimension. We might need the Administrator’s help.”
“From a rational point of view, perhaps the best way to succeed is to destroy Firechaser. The surprise fleet is already very close to Firechaser’s planet. As long as we drop the poisonous substances that we’ve developed long ago, it won’t be long before we can kill all the Firechaser races…”
In the parliament, some scientists analyzed the pros and cons of this matter purely from a rational point of view.
Unlike Li Wenyuan, although they were also very interested in the history of the Firechaser, they were currently facing a more important survival crisis.
From their calculations, the success rate of defeating the Firechaser with minimal losses was much higher than confronting the Firechaser head-on, delaying their pace, and studying the technology of Dimensional Adaption.
However, after some contemplation, the Lightchaser Leader rejected this idea. “Do you remember the disaster that happened on the Dawn Star not long ago? This Homeship in our hinterland was strangely invaded and has now become a plant spaceship covered in plants. This is something we can’t explain at the moment, so we sent an exploration team to investigate, right?”
“Our understanding of the Firechaser isn’t as deep as we thought. Poisoning is a method, but it’s a desperate move with no way out.”
“Furthermore… although we have personally destroyed many of our comrades in the great civilization battle royale, don’t forget our initial passion. We were once partners who worked hand in hand. We destroyed each other because we could not find any way to redeem ourselves, but now, there is an opportunity in front of us.”
“The other party is the Firechaser, the origin of our civilization’s name. If we miss this chance, we really won’t be able to save them anymore.”
It was true that interactions between civilizations only valued benefits. The Lightchaser’s current behavior was very abnormal. For them, this was something that did more harm than good. It might not be useful to civilization.
However, there would always be times when benefits were no longer the first goal. Just like many noble sacrifices in history, what pushed them to make the final decision was their idealistic belief.
“My words alone have limited weight. Let’s go through the original process and vote.” Seeing that everyone in the parliament was silent, the Lightchaser Leader suggested.
However, after saying that, he added, “Also, don’t forget that this technology was provided by the Administrator. Why do you think they gave us this technology? Do you think we can use it?”
“At least we have to do what we can. There’s still plenty of time before the darkness closes in on us. We should try it.”
After that, the Scientific Assembly slowly came to an end. Not long after, the expedition team sent to the Dawn Star Homeship had many additional missions.
This was a group mission. All the participants would receive it, and the Solar Engineers who were originally in charge of repairing the artificial sun were no exception.
“Gather samples, search for anomalies, search for all information related to the Firechaser…”
He muttered to himself, but he was wondering what was going on. This seemed to be a change in the government’s attitude towards the Firechaser.
In his memory, the Firechaser was more or less understood. In short, it was the enemy they needed to defeat in the end.
However, as the Dawn Star was infected by the strange plants, the situation changed again.
Sitting on the spaceship that was about to land and looking at the Homeship that had been eroded by the vegetation, the Solar Engineer felt an inexplicable sense of panic. He felt that there was a big mouth that was eating people there, and their group might not be able to return.
However, the mission would not stop just because he was afraid. He still joined a large group of various personnel and logged on to the Homeship.
With the fire of the incendiary bombs, their landing point was burned into an empty area that could be used to deploy the camp.
According to early explorers, this plant was a predatory plant that could even hunt with just its branches, which required special drugs and physical combustion to avoid attacks.
After getting off the spaceship, he saw a translucent sea of plants.
Dense stems and leaves covered the original inner wall of the spaceship. Under the translucent branches, emergency lights that had not been cut off could be seen.
The Solar Engineer curiously touched the transparent trunk of the plant with the long staff in his hand. He found that they would shrink back slightly like jelly, but after shrinking to a certain extent, they would directly swallow the place where the long staff touched. It took him a lot of effort to pull it out.
When the other crew member saw his actions, he warned him not to touch it. He obediently stayed in the camp and stared blankly, waiting for the order to set off.
However, at this moment, a fully armed soldier not far away seemed to have received some news and hurriedly reported the content to his superior through the walkie-talkie.
From his intermittent words, the Solar Engineer seemed to have heard words like a giant tree and environmental transformation.
He did not feel anything at first, but when he looked at the translucent plants clinging to the inner wall, he suddenly felt dazed.
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the paid project scene that he had experienced in the book Former Glory. The surrounding environment had changed to that primitive world.
A natural aura assaulted his face, and a towering tree could be vaguely seen in the sky not far away.
He had a feeling that he had become one with this world. Every move of the flowers, insects, and fish was under his annotation.
However, the next moment, the sound of the whistle woke him up. He woke up from his sudden hallucination and looked around. It seemed that no one had suffered like him.
Puzzled, he looked at the exit here. It was also where they were going later. They could see a glimpse of the Homeship from here.
He immediately spotted the control tower responsible for the entire ship’s life-support system. He had worked in the same building aboard the Dawn Song Homeship.
However, this tower that was wrapped in a large number of plants now looked more like a World Tree..
