177: The fourth mission in space: to build a "shell" for the sun!

When Lu Chen's ultimate declaration, full of the tragic heroism and grand aspirations of "fighting to the death," reverberated clearly in Meeting Room No. 1 in Jinghai City, Xia Nation, the entire world erupted.

All the heads of state who were previously engaged in crazy internal strife for their ridiculous "countries" and "nations"!

At this moment, they all resembled a group of fanatical believers about to embark on a holy war!

Their eyes, bloodshot!

Their breathing, rapid!

Frantically, they offered to that calm-faced Eastern Youth!

Themselves, and all of their countries'

Loyalty!

They knew. From today onwards!

They would no longer be Western Alliance people, Europeans, or Africans.

They would have only one common name—Earthlings!

They would fight for one common goal—survival!

And battle!

Just as the entire human civilization, due to the death countdown that could suffocate any civilization, completely united and erupted with unprecedented terrifying cohesion.

Our protagonist, Lu Chen, once again became the most leisurely "hands-off manager."

He threw all the complicated matters concerning the coordination of global resources and the acceleration of technological development to heavenly craft.

He himself quietly returned to the isolated Kunlun Mountain Underground Base.

Because

He had received a new mission prompt from that somewhat unreliable system!

[Ding—]

[Detected that the Host has successfully initiated the "Human Civilization Self-Salvation" storyline.]

['starry sea' series, main mission (four) released ahead of schedule!]

Boom!!!

This series of system prompts, filled with subversive information!

Was like a genesis divine thunder capable of splitting the entire Solar System!

It struck Lu Chen's skull fiercely!

He was completely petrified!

He stared blankly at the new, epic mission panel in his mind!

His mind was blank!

Released ahead of schedule?!

And it's main mission (four)?!

Damn it!

I haven't even done (three) yet!

And you're giving me (four)?!

System, are you also scared silly by that damned "the cleaners"?!

Are you starting to talk nonsense?!

This time, the usually aloof, cold, mechanical synthesized voice uncharacteristically fell into a long silence.

So long that Lu Chen thought it had crashed.

A line of golden characters, full of ancient andvicissitudes aura!

Slowly, it appeared in his mind.

[Time is running out.]

Seeing these four words, full of solemnity and urgency.

Lu Chen's usually cynical heart couldn't help but sink sharply!

He knew.

Things seemed to be more serious than he had imagined!

He took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the new mission panel, full of madness and subversion.

['starry sea' series, main mission (four)]

[Mission Name: Dyson Sphere Prototype!]

[Mission Description: As pitiful 'guinea pigs' about to be casually wiped out by a higher-dimensional "the cleaners," you actually try to resist with that pathetic bit of planetary energy? This is simply a disgrace to the entire universe!]

[Mission Objective: Control all the energy of your tiny home star! Build a]

[Dyson Sphere prototype, sufficient to support you in galaxy-level warfare!]

[Mission Reward: ???]

“…”

Seeing this new mission, still full of "mockery" but also making his blood boil.

Lu Chen smiled.

He smiled with incredible madness!

And, with immense pride!

Dyson Sphere!

A terrifying artificial celestial body capable of enveloping the entire sun!

An artificial celestial body!

Once built, it would allow all of human civilization to leap from a pathetic "planetary-level" civilization to a terrifying "stellar-level" civilization capable of traversing the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

"Stellar-level" civilization's

Ultimate

Miracle!

This was what he, Lu Chen, truly wanted!

This was the true future that humanity should have!

"Hahahahahahaha!"

He could no longer hold back!

He suddenly stood up from the levitating chair, letting out an unprecedented, hearty, arrogant

Laughter!

"Isn't it just a Dyson Sphere?!"

"Isn't it just building a 'shell' for the sun?!"

"Let's do it!"

"heavenly craft!"

[Present, Master.]

"Input the complete theoretical data and construction plan for the 'Dyson Sphere' prototype into your core database!"

"Then—"

His eyes burned with unprecedented madness and pride!

"In the name of 'Human Civilization'!"

"Immediately, right now, establish a new 'code name for civilization self-salvation project'"

"Stellar Engineering Project Group!"

"I want, in the shortest possible time!"

"Our old man Sun, who has been burning for billions of years!"

"To be, completely"

"Privatized!"

[Yes, Master.]

heavenly craft nodded heavily!

Her intelligent eyes also sparkled with unprecedented brilliance!

Dyson Sphere!

Control, the star!

How romantic!

How

Great!

Meanwhile, at this moment.

On Mars, aboard the expedition.

He was looking out the window with emotion at the green world full of vitality and hope.

World.

Behind him stood the calm-faced youth.

"Lu Chen, ah..."

He turned around and looked at Lu Chen's delicate face, his wise eyes filled with endless relief and

Pride!

"You, once again..."

"For our, country."

"For our, civilization."

"Created an unparalleled achievement worthy of being recorded in history."

"Great deed!"

"Standard procedure, calm down."

Lu Chen calmly waved his hand.

"However—"

He changed the subject, a faint hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, as vast as the universe.

"Chief, you wouldn't really think..."

"That I created such a big guy..."

"Just to plant some..."

"Grass on this tiny, broken rock, would you?"
