This way, even if Luo Ji is no longer the Swordholder in the future, humanity won't suffer such a terrible fate.
Humanity's obstacle to survival has always been itself. If saviors like Luo Ji were common on every street, would they still be called saviors?
The Dark Forest Deterrence is ultimately not a long-term solution.
Just as Lin Feng was contemplating the future, the Spanish representative retorted, holding the microphone.
"We already have the Reinforce Future Plan. Your plan is redundant."
Hearing his carefully crafted plan dismissed as redundant, Lin Feng couldn't help but respond sarcastically.
"Spanish representative, have you suddenly figured out how interstellar civilization warfare is conducted? This isn't your 16th century anymore. Spanish sailing warships can't go into space. Face reality!"
The Spanish representative's expression immediately darkened. He wanted to retort, but Lin Feng wouldn't give him the chance.
Lin Feng's tone shifted to address the entire assembly. His expression grew serious as he spoke with utmost solemnity to the representatives of various nations.
"Everyone, let's take the major powers of today as an example. Aren't their wars always total system warfare? Land, sea, air, and the entire nation are mobilized! What can a small contingent of soldiers reinforcing the future accomplish? It's not even enough to pick at their teeth!"
"The Trisolarans are already attacking us with all their might! When our technology is inferior to theirs, who gives you the confidence to not fight them with everything you've got?"
"From the processing of basic components to the highest level of combat command, a unified determination and courage to fight the enemy to the death is the foundation of a powerful human fleet in the future!"
Lin Feng's speech seemed to sway the entire Planetary Defense Council, and the assembly erupted into renewed discussion.
Lin Feng's plan was approved by the PDC. The third Wallfacer plan he unveiled the next day graced the front pages of major newspapers.
On various social media platforms, public opinion was divided. One side was extremely disappointed with the plan.
These disappointed individuals were generally adults and the elderly.
"What is this? Mind control? In the end, will even our mental freedom be stripped away?"
"No, this is a faith relief plan, hahaha." someone scoffed.
"In the future, we won't even have freedom of speech, completely becoming a component of human civilization."
"I'm already used to it. Isn't human society already like this?"
"Before the Trisolarans arrive, humanity will be finished."
On the other hand, the other side was immensely supportive of Lin Feng's plan. These individuals were generally minors.
"Did you hear? Classes will be held in virtual reality from now on. You can log in from home and go to school, so you'll never have to worry about being late and can sleep in a little longer."
"And the teacher won't notice if you sleep or zone out during class. Submitting homework online just requires finding someone who's done it and copying it, which is much easier than the tedious copying of homework from before."
"Everyone, from now on, no matter who says what, I will be a loyal fan of Feng Taylor."
"I heard Feng Taylor is also developing a space game that perfectly recreates reality, where players pilot their own custom-built spaceships and form fleets to battle each other in the game."
"Huh? Space battles? I'm a peaceful farming player."
"Farming players can play too. The factories in the game require players to conceive and design them. The efficiency of the production line depends entirely on the player's own conceptual ability. The map layout is the Solar System, and as long as it's achievable, players can even colonize beyond the Solar System in the game."
"Sounds interesting."
"Has the news been released?" Lin Feng asked.
The team expert nodded. "Yes, the internet is in chaos now, with all sorts of opinions."
"Excellent. The design of the game pods must be completed quickly," Lin Feng said.
Having voices online was good; silence was terrifying. The more voices there were, the more attention the plan received, and the greater its influence on human society would be.
"VR gear is an off-the-shelf version. This isn't developing something non-existent, but integrating and modifying what already exists. I believe it can be put on the market very soon," Lin Feng said.
If VR gear didn't exist, and virtual games weren't so mature, Lin Feng might not have been so hasty.
But now that there was a foundation, Lin Feng saw no reason to wait; he could act decisively.
"Why specifically add a life support system?"
The team expert asked with some unease. He worried that Lin Feng intended for all humans to stay in the game pods for 24 hours a day, which would inevitably lead to severe consequences.
For example, an increase in obesity among the entire human population.
"Why? Of course, it's to allow those people to stay in the game pods for longer periods, to shift people's primary social interactions online," Lin Feng replied matter-of-factly.
"This way, the social consequences that arise..." the team expert began, then stopped.
Lin Feng waved his hand dismissively. He intended to fundamentally transform human society. If he was afraid of mere social problems, how could he achieve such a transformation?
"Minor issues. Can any problem be bigger than the Trisolarans? Bigger than the ETO?"
"In the face of an all-human crisis, mere social problems are nothing. Go ahead and do it without any reservations."
"This is a battlefield, your battlefield against the Trisolarans."
The team expert was stunned, especially by Lin Feng's final words.
Thinking of the future crisis of the Trisolaran invasion, the team expert gritted his teeth and accepted the task.
"I understand your meaning. I will relay your exact words to the rest of the team."
Meanwhile, in the Three-Body Game on the other side, within the stone chamber inside the Maya pyramid, the ETO was also holding a meeting regarding Lin Feng.
It's quite comical, really. For other Wallfacers, the ETO only needed to hold one meeting, but because of Lin Feng, they kept holding meetings to break his walls, over and over again.
"Feng Taylor has announced a new Wallfacer plan."
"Why does he have so many Wallfacer plans? It's endless."
"Has he gotten addicted to us breaking his walls?"
All sorts of voices could be heard from the ETO, most of them complaints about Lin Feng. The majority of ETO members believed that Lin Feng's claim of 'having many plans' was just boasting or deceiving them, and they didn't believe Lin Feng had the ability to come up with numerous Wallfacer plans.
Now, they had no choice but to believe.
The appearance of Qin Shi Huang, Mozi, and other ETO high-ranking members silenced the noisy venue.
"Feng Taylor's Wallfacer plan needs to be broken. We just need to break through humanity's labyrinth of lies for it."
"Feng Taylor's plan is clearly aimed at humanity itself, to deal with the Lord by adjusting humanity itself. I see very dangerous signals in this. This plan is completely different from previous ones."
Qin Shi Huang, who had taken his seat, spoke slowly, and the other ETO high-ranking members nodded in agreement.
King Wen of Zhou Ji Chang said, "One of the Lord's commands is to prevent humanity from leaving the Solar System. This command is on the same level as killing Luo Ji."
"Shiens is already in hibernation, and Radiiaz's wall-breaking can wait a bit. The organization should primarily focus on breaking Feng Taylor's plan, or even disrupting it."
