His gaze swept across Orange Star. It was no longer a barren planet; metal "cities" dotted its surface, even though its thin atmosphere consisted almost entirely of carbon dioxide.
But oxygen meant nothing to the developing intelligent machines. First-generation insulating metal had entered widespread use. Extremely hard, it could already withstand expansion and contraction caused by temperature differences, provide physical insulation, and resist corrosion and radiation, among other excellent properties.
Swift flying transport ships served the high-tech cities. The terrain no longer hindered high-capacity transportation, and traffic jams would never be a concern on Orange Star.
All the various "vehicles" here flew through the sky.
Within the virtual network of the human Living Area inside Orange Star's Main Base, Huang Qi was remotely controlling Liquid Robots in the real world.
Here, every thought she had could extend outward, splitting her into over a hundred selves. Without a suppressor, those hundred-odd selves would keep multiplying like a virus.
Countless thoughts flashed through a human mind every minute and second, only to be erased. It was like the self that wanted boba milk tea and the self that wanted pearl milk tea both speaking up in the brain. Whichever survived became the new self.
These offshoots of her were the thoughts that had survived. It was almost as though Huang Qis from countless other dimensions had gathered in one place.
Of course, the best part was the full support she received from Dad, the base's system. Over a hundred new humanoid robots were carrying out incubation, cultivation, and observation in the various rooms of the Biological Research Lab.
Five enormous Ecological Parks, each three hundred meters in diameter, had already been built, their grounds covered in black microbial soil.
In the earliest ecological enclosure, delicate, slender shoots sprouted from the black earth.
