I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World-Chapter 1546 - Distant Memory
Chapter 1546: Distant Memory
“In exchange, we will help you.”
The last sentence made Jiang Chen unable to refuse Golovin’s request. Against the invasion of Harmony, the civilization of Earth that just managed to step into the starry night was like a newborn baby. Jiang Chen did not know what exactly the Svetovid experienced when it went through the wormhole, he simply did not want to let any opportunity that increased their chances go.
Even if it meant a certain amount of risk.
Moreover, after he saw Golovin, he suddenly had an idea.
“We will provide you with all necessary help to get you out of the ice sheet. At the same time, we will allow you to register companies in Xin and participate in the development of outer space resources… Of course, this is only nominally. We will provide you with a piece of land on Mars and a space elevator.”
“We will remember your kindness.” Golovin nodded. “My people and I don’t want to be disturbed, but it doesn’t mean that we are not gregarious. We will maintain a dialogue with you and hope that our friendship can grow to eternity.”
“How should I call you?” Jiang Chen said, “I mean, you and your people…Soviets? Or something else.”
“Soviets?” Golovin raised his head. “A very old name, accompanied by an unpleasant memory… If it is convenient, I would prefer you to call me and my people Golovins.”
“Golovins?” Jiang Chen was taken aback, puzzled, “Isn’t this your name?”
“Yes,” Golovin nodded, “Is there a problem?”
“???”
The problem was asking “is there a problem” with a straight face. If Jiang Chen’s own understanding was correct, then there were some fundamental differences between the two.
Fortunately, it was not the first time Jiang Chen encountered a civilization completely different from human society, so he did not show too much surprise, but wisely chose to ignore this problem for now, which led to his contemplation of the issue just now.
“Let’s put these insignificant things aside. It will take a while to get you out of the ice sheet. During this time, I hope you can cooperate with me.”
“If it’s a technical question, I will answer all I know,” Golovin said.
“It’s not a technical problem… Well, to put it simply, I hope you can put on an act.” Worried that this foreigner would misunderstand the situation, Jiang Chen was direct and stated his intentions.
“An act?” Golovin stared at Jiang Chen, “What’s the significance?”
“Politics,” Jiang Chen said, “Against the invasion of Harmony, a united Earth Federation definitely has a better chance of winning than a loose defense alliance. In fact, we have made some preparations for the establishment of the Earth Federation, but there are still a lot of troubles in front of us. In short, we need an opportunity…”
At this point, Jiang Chen stopped and just stared at Golovin.
That sentence could be directly interpreted without having to be finished.
You are the opportunity.
“Politics?” Golovin blinked but did not respond right away. His deep pupils seemed to say he was recollecting a distant memory again. Then he lowered his head and whispered, “A very old vocabulary, accompanied by an unpleasant memory…”
…
“Does a civilization become advanced as long as you go through the wormhole?” Jiang Chen, who had been thinking about something, suddenly asked after he left the command center.
“I don’t know… why do you suddenly think this way?” Lin Lin looked at him inexplicably and asked.
“It’s just a feeling.”
After he carefully thought about it, it seemed to be the case. If Jiang Chen recalled correctly, a total of three colonization ships passed through the wormhole. One of them flew into the void and became a drifter in the crevice of the dimensions, together with the starship itself, they became an immortal but non-existent quantum state. Another ship seemed to be called the Brahma. It leaped into this dimension and came to the Gliese Galaxy, 20.5 light-years away from the solar system. After thousands of years of evolution, it eventually evolved into a biological civilization that swallowed the entire planet.
As for the Svetovid, Jiang Chen hadn’t noticed their immaculateness, or rather, it was weak enough to be trapped under the ice sheet of Europa and asked for his rescue. But instinct told Jiang Chen that the secrets between the Sevtovid were not small.
Especially from Golovin’s words, Jiang Chen discovered that these people actually had a relationship with those remnants of the void. Disregard the uniqueness of the Svetovid, even if they received a little help from the remnants of the void, they would be similar to the Gaia civilization.
Of course, this horizontal comparison was mainly based on related research in anti-matter. From the data of the Gaia civilization, the collection and storage of anti-matter were inferior in all respects compared to the “gifts” given to Jiang Chen by the remnants of the void.
After they returned to the hotel in Celestial City, Jiang Chen tossed his coat on the hanger, loosened the button around his neck, and looked at Lin Lin who was already rolling on the bed. Speechlessly, he said, “Are you not going to shower before you get into bed.”
“What’s the matter? My metabolism is less than one-tenth of yours.” Lin Lin spat out her tongue at him, then sat up on the bed with her arms wrapped around a pillow while her two feet dangled off the bed, “Where should we go tomorrow? Should we go to Lunar City, I haven’t been to the Moon yet.”
“It’s too far, maybe next time when we have the opportunity.”
He walked beside the floor-to-ceiling window, then sat down on the chair that looked like a hollowed-out pumpkin.
The Earth was outside the window, with a panoramic view of the entire eastern hemisphere.
Instead of enjoying the scenery that he has seen countless times, he turned on the holographic screen of the watch.
Soon, Lilith’s holographic image appeared to his left.
“Have you analyzed the data?” Jiang Chen asked.
The data naturally referred to the engineering drawings and technical data sent by Golovin, which was more than 500 terabytes. After the transmission finished, he sent the data into a backup server for isolation and storage. Although Jiang Chen didn’t think Golovin had a reason to deceive him, it was always important to be careful.
“The analysis has been completed, and no viruses or backdoor programs have been found,” Lilith said.
His own judgment was confirmed, and Jiang Chen was slightly relieved.
“Any further instructions?” Lilith asked.
“No,” Jiang Chen said.
Almost as soon he finished the sentence, Lilith’s figure disappeared.
There was no need to guess at all. She was probably in a dungeon again in either “Godly Land” or “Galaxy Edge”.
Jiang Chen shook his head with a smile.
Advanced artificial intelligence addicted to online games definitely has the potential to become the most interesting cold joke this year.
“Are you busy now?” Lin Lin stared at the back at Jiang Chen’s head while she asked in a whisper.
“No.” He turned his chair around and looked at Lin Lin. He instantly understood the expression on her face and could not stop smiling. “What’s the matter?”
“Then…” Lin Lin, who squeezed her index fingers together and hugged the pillow, suddenly was afraid to look at Jiang Chen. The flush of her face started to become apparent while she said, “Then, hurry up and take a shower.”
“Shower?” Jiang Chen pretended he did not understand what she meant, “Why do I need to shower so early? I’m not going to sleep yet.”
“Because…”
“Because?”
“I want…”
“You want?”
Jiang Chen suddenly felt he had become more sadist as he looked at Lin Lin, who shrunk into a ball. Her cheeks flushed, and her head began to steam.
It seemed that after he pushed down Yao Yao, the last remaining bit of discipline he had was also tossed away.
In a playful gaze, Jiang Chen watched Lin Lin while he debated how to tease this little bunny that always had an unforgiving mouth. Just then, Lin Lin, whose lips trembled, seemed to have reached the breaking point of shamefulness.
Finally, Lin Lin noticed the smile on Jiang Chen’s face, and she exploded out of shame.
“Pervert, don’t let me say it!”
Her face turned the color of a ripe red apple as she angrily tossed a pillow in Jiang Chen’s direction.
