An expert standing next to Zhang Tianyuan spoke up.
"Mr. Zhou, you may not know the specifics, but there's always been a 'curse' within our Mutual Aid Society: the situation on the other side is often more complicated..."
"Complex?" Zhou Kun didn't understand.
Yuan Heguang knew what was about to be said. He had already heard about the messy things in the Day After Tomorrow Spacetime, and he also had a basic understanding of the situation in the various timelines within the Mutual Aid Society.
In his view, this situation is not due to any inherent flaws, but entirely due to the shortcomings of the system.
The people on the other side should reflect on their actions.
Don't you see? In No. 5 Spacetime, they replaced the leader with a charlatan-like figure, and he's doing just fine.
This precisely illustrates that the reason why so many bizarre things happen in North America at different times and places is not a problem with people at all.
Although Yuan Heguang felt that "priests" governing the country was somewhat incompatible with his values, this did not prevent him from approving of Father Jack's methods.
The rapid development of the Mutual Aid Society Divine Church there was actually because it met the needs of the local people.
Ordinary people who returned to normal life after the apocalypse saw hope, regarded the Mutual Aid Society as their savior, willingly compared it to a god, and devoutly regarded the Mutual Aid Society's tenets as divine pronouncements.
Deep down, they yearn for the Mutual Aid Society that will lead them out of the apocalypse, and they hope that the Mutual Aid Society can guide them to fully normalize society.
Those who commit sins and murders during the apocalypse also have the opportunity to gain redemption and forgiveness through this process, thus formally integrating into an increasingly stable society and living ordinary lives...
Although their motives differ, their goals are the same: to restore society to normalcy and to ensure that they can maintain their place in society.
The Mutual Aid Society Divine Church, a completely localized organization, acted as an intermediary, stitching the two sides together.
So now the atmosphere there has become so harmonious and united that it's bordering on fervent...
Given this social foundation, the emergence of a figure like Father Jack can only be described as conforming to the trend of the times.
Such a system is undoubtedly backward in modern civilization, but it suits the social needs of the other No. 5 Spacetime, so Yuan Heguang has no choice but to respect it.
and
The fact that such a religious system could, to some extent, interact with modern elites from the Day After Tomorrow Spacetime speaks volumes.
After listening to the experts recount the various North America events that occurred within the Mutual Aid Society across different time periods, Zhou Kun fell silent.
After a long while, he finally opened his mouth:
"Is all of this true? More than 100 million people really died?"
One expert stated with absolute certainty, "At least this many people have died!"
"..."
"Well, Professor Brand, although I've never met him, I've heard he's been researching wormholes for decades. He wouldn't do something like that, would he?"
Zhang Tianyuan stepped forward at the opportune moment and said, " Professor Brand wouldn't do that, and I trust his character."
Although this old man was actually deceiving everyone and everything, he genuinely only wanted humanity to continue.
Of course, it would be best if he could create more opportunities for his daughter to survive on the basis of continuing the human race, and in fact, that's what he did.
Unfortunately, the higher-dimensional humans did not choose him to be their savior.
In conclusion, Professor Brand is worthy of respect in this regard.
Such a person is unlikely to cause any trouble...
"But he was never our concern."
Zhou Kun immediately understood, and could only sigh helplessly.
"Indeed, although Professor Brand is highly respected, I doubt he has absolute authority in these matters."
But don't forget, NASA was only reorganized in recent years.
If Brand's words really carried weight, NASA and Lazarus missions wouldn't have been canceled.
Zhang Tianyuan thought so too.
How exactly should the collaboration with Professor Brand proceed to ensure they are not interfered with by the other side?
They are still researching the specific methods.
Because the person on the other end is clearly acting strangely!
They genuinely treat the population as surplus resources and physically consume it.
The soldiers who died in Europe, the Indian Ocean, the Western Pacific Ocean, and the Southern Hemisphere are probably still wailing now.
A living, breathing human purge!
Although the Mutual Aid Society had also studied the matter internally, it was concluded that those people foresaw a major upheaval in the future, and therefore wanted to concentrate all of their most important resource, namely food.
It got into my hands.
At the same time, they need to destabilize World Island and weaken its power, lest they wake up one day to find themselves the world's enemy, surrounded by landing forces on all sides...
However, in addition to these two main objectives, the idea of actively depleting soldiers and population is also confirmed.
Can people who hold such anti-human ideas be considered normal?
Having survived several timelines Mutual Aid Society have undoubtedly reached a consensus.
If even one person in that group is normal, then I'll admit defeat!
Silence fell over the room once again.
An expert stepped in to smooth things over, which could be considered a response to Zhou Kun:
"President Zhou, please rest assured. To be honest, we're not in a huge rush for NASA's data right now. Once our spaceship reaches the wormhole, whatever we need will naturally come to us."
"It's only a matter of time. Even if they don't cooperate with us, we can complete the entire plan on our own, and that day won't be long."
Zhou Kun realized his mistake and shook his head. "That's true. Their cooperation is not important to us at all. I was just being stubborn."
Amelia missed today's academic conference. She decided to take leave to visit the space base. Chen Jianzhou specially arranged for a female colleague to accompany her, serving as both a host and a translator.
The two men, along with two security personnel from the delegation, drove towards the city they had passed through a few days earlier.
After just a few days, the city had undergone tremendous changes. Water from who-knows-where had washed away the sand and dirt from the roads, piling it up into a small hill.
The grayish-yellow air had become fresher, and you could even faintly feel a bit of moisture in the wind.
The entire city looked as if it had been washed with water.
"It seems like things are getting better and better here?" Walking on roads that were remarkably clean for this era, Amelia found everything new and intriguing, wanting to explore everything.
Her female colleague followed behind her, occasionally giving her basic introductions, such as how this city used to serve the space base in the distance.
Amelia listened attentively and even took notes.
