Based on current detection results, the environment on Star No. 3 is similar to that on Earth, making the choice of higher-dimensional humans trustworthy in this respect.
However, unlike Earth, which has been cultivated and developed by humans for tens of thousands of years, no signs of intelligent life have been found on Star No. 3 so far.
In other words, the topography and ecological environment above are still quite primitive.
Especially the primeval forests within it.
Even on Earth, the venomous insects and strange beasts in the primeval forests are not easy to deal with.
Moreover, it's a primeval forest on a strange planet, where countless dangers lurk, and no one knows what lies within.
This may also be the main reason why Edmunds chose to land in the desert.
In such an environment, sacrifices are inevitable before any base can be successfully established, and the number of casualties is by no means small.
In Yuan Heguang's mind, there were only two issues he cared about—
The first question is: how many people will be sacrificed?
Secondly, who were the people who sacrificed their lives?
Of these two problems, the first one can only be prevented by implementing preventative measures to reduce the number of casualties.
The key question is the second one.
Who were the people who sacrificed their lives?
Given the current situation, if the exploration plan for Star No. 3 is entirely driven by Yuan Heguang Mutual Aid Society, then the sacrifices will undoubtedly be made by people both domestically and by the Mutual Aid Society.
The problem is that after Star No. 3, it won't just be a new home for people in China; other surviving humans on Earth will also have to be relocated there.
Based on the fundamental principles of the Mutual Aid Society, no time or spacetime can stand idly by and watch other humans in Interstellar Spacetime remain on Earth to die.
However, if the exploration of New Star is carried out entirely by Yuan Heguang and the Mutual Aid Society, making enormous sacrifices, but the results are shared by the entire Interstellar Spacetime...
On what grounds?
There is no such logic in the world.
Even Mutual Aid Society do not support this kind of unearned gain.
Therefore, Yuan Heguang now wants to solve this problem.
If other countries in Interstellar Spacetime are involved, and everyone contributes to the exploration of New Star, then it won't be considered unearned gain.
This problem is then easily solved.
" New Star Exploration is now a collaboration between us and the Mutual Aid Society, and we are very happy about it."
Welcome, but ultimately this is a matter within our own spacetime. Headquarters and other branches can help us temporarily, but they can't help us forever; the main work still needs to be done by ourselves."
Yuan Heguang's words were straightforward, but they also concealed another meaning.
Zhang Tianyuan ignored his probing. Although he had never explained the expectations that the Wandering Spacetime had for the Interstellar Spacetime, Yuan Heguang must have sensed something.
However, now is a good time to explain.
Yuan Heguang was already mentally prepared.
Zhang Tianyuan gave a calm, slight smile and stated frankly, "Neither headquarters nor any of the other branches have any designs on Star No. 3. President Yuan can rest assured on that point."
"On the contrary, we simply hope to gain access to Earth after you leave."
"The right to use the Earth?"
"Our current Earth?"
Yuan Heguang was somewhat taken aback. He had assumed that the other branches were so enthusiastic about exploring New Star because they at least wanted to get a colony on Star No. 3 or some other benefits.
I never imagined it was all for this Earth with no future?
The idea flashed through Yuan Heguang's mind, and he blinked, immediately grasping the key point.
"Is it No. 3 Spacetime?"
"Yes," Zhang Tianyuan nodded with a smile, "They want to use this place as a temporary shelter; you know their situation over there."
"Every time there's a lava leak in the underground city, we help with the emergency evacuation. Evacuating hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of people is a very complicated matter, especially for the resettlement sites..."
If a magma leak were to occur again in the Wandering Spacetime, the residents of the underground city would be evacuated directly to the cities in No. 1 Spacetime that had already completed their mass migration.
Only these empty cities could accommodate nearly a million refugees at once.
But this is not a long-term solution.
In the 2012 timeline, we've now reached October 2011, meaning the apocalypse is just over a year away.
Although Earth in Interstellar Spacetime is somewhat inferior to that in No. 1 Spacetime, and cannot be used for farming, it can still serve as a temporary shelter in the short term.
Even if in the future because of
The extinction of algae and the resulting oxygen deficiency could lead to the construction of large-scale facilities to directly create artificial oxygen.
For those Wandering Spacetime, such large-scale projects are commonplace.
"Besides the idea of descending to No. 3 Spacetime, headquarters also had a plan to develop your Time-Space into a new Time-Space Hub. President Yuan should have also seen the relevant plan."
Yuan Heguang nodded. He had indeed read the plan, and it was from this plan that he sensed something was wrong.
What's the point of building a spacetime nexus on a planet that will eventually be deserted, perhaps even devoid of oxygen?
This looks as ridiculous as building a subway in Shennongjia for commuters...
Looking back now, that was sending him a signal.
These people have been living on this Earth, ravaged by the Blight, for too long. There's even a wormhole on Saturn, and they're always thinking about escaping Earth.
Their fixed mindset has led them to forget how precious a habitable planet like Earth is in the universe.
Even if their planet has already been robbed of its future by the Blight.
So, there really are people who want to take the subway to work in Shennongjia...
Yuan Heguang paused for a moment, as if weighing his options.
Zhang Tianyuan said calmly, " President Yuan, there's no need to worry. This isn't a transaction. Even if you disagree with this plan, the Mutual Aid Society will still provide you with technical and medical support within the Nova Exploration Program."
"Our fundamental goal is for you to survive, not to use human lives as bargaining chips..."
"No," Yuan Heguang raised his hand to interrupt Zhang Tianyuan, "I support this plan."
"After we migrate, Earth becomes a distant home for us, and we will never be able to return to Earth."
"So if it can play a positive role within the Mutual Aid Society, I would naturally be willing to hand over the right to use it to headquarters."
At this point, Yuan Heguang smiled and added, "Of course, it doesn't count for me to decide alone. We'll have to wait until everyone has arrived on the New Star and settled down before this matter can be settled."
Zhang Tianyuan laughed along, agreeing, "Indeed!"
