Chapter 383 Climate Modification
In the past two weeks, in the galaxy where the planet Gaia is located.
The Climate Modification Department has completely cleaned up the body fluids secreted by the astrophages on the surface of the star, allowing the restricted star's light to be released again, giving it some of its former appearance.
This has allowed the climate of all planets in the galaxy to begin to recover to a certain extent even without the help of the Climate Modification Department.
However, the intensity of the star has changed quite obviously under the influence of the astral phagocytosis, so if left alone, eventually
It is still necessary to proactively carry out climate modification to adjust the state of the planet so that the planet, which has experienced two drastic environmental changes within a few years, can present the most perfect posture that best meets Chen Ming's needs.
The planet's North and South Pole, the entire equator, and some areas determined by the planet's geographical environment structure and climate have been operated by the Climate Transformation Department and installed devices that can release environmentally modified gases according to the needs of climate transformation.
In addition, the Department of Renovation has also released a considerable number of artificial species that can be used to stabilize the environment and improve the climate.
It doesn’t matter how long they live. As long as they exist, they can stabilize and accelerate the spread of climate-changing gases released by those devices to a certain extent, and solidify the effects of these gases on this land.
While the Climate Transformation Department was doing this, some planetary native organisms also appeared in the equatorial region of Gaia's planet energy along with the implementation of the climate transformation plan.
The equator itself is the area judged by the Ministry of Climate Change to need the highest priority for climate change.
This area can receive more and faster light from stars than other places, and it is also the area that is first and most exposed to changes in star light intensity.
It can be seen that the planetary consciousness of the Gaia planet does understand that what Chen Ming and others are doing is for it, and actively cooperates so that the actions of the Climate Change Department can achieve faster efficiency.
And at this moment.
Chen Ming, who was standing on the side of the Gaia planet facing the star, near the equator where large areas of snow had melted, could just see with his own eyes what the Gaia planet was doing.
The first things he could see returning from the underground ecosystem to the cold surface were the luminous plants that spread throughout the underground ecosystem.
When they are underground, they will actively take on the shape of moss or fungi to adapt to the underground environment.
And after they returned to the surface, they adapted to the surface environment at the speed of light.
It grows quietly in the equatorial region, which is still cold today.
It not only re-expresses the shape of the surface plants, but also absorbs the special gases used by the Climate Change Department to carry out the initial climate change.
This is not just pure absorption.
Instead, after absorption, natural substances are used to reproduce these man-made climate modification gases and released in batches.
Just like green plants releasing oxygen during photosynthesis.
These luminous plants derived from Gaia's consciousness are performing some kind of chemical reaction and releasing modified gases.
Under the monitoring of the monitoring stations set up by the Ministry of Climate Change, it can be found that there is no slight deviation in the content of various components of the natural modified gases and artificial modified gases produced by these luminous plants.
It can be said that they are exactly the same existence.
On the basis of ensuring the content of the modified gas, Gaia Planet has greatly expanded the application range of the modified gas that was originally limited by the environment and cost.
Catalyzing climate change.
These things are awesome.
"It seems that the climate transformation situation is very good. Is what I said before correct?"
The climate change minister next to Chen Ming had just confirmed the data on the air composition content in different regions that had just been obtained with the ministers in other locations on the planet.
There was also a satisfied expression on his face and he responded: "Yes."
As more and more glowing plants emerge from the ground, their positive impact on climate change will increase.
The ability of these plants to absorb artificial environmental modification gases, replicate them and emit them is really eye-opening.
Normally, humans create natural substances, but I didn’t expect that one day this kind of plant would turn artificial substances into natural substances.
This situation not only shocked the minister, but also made him extremely jealous.
Because he saw the possibility of realizing his project from these things.
His idea was an automated climate modification technology called the Seeds of Life project.
We need a complete organism that can survive for a long time and adapt to the process of climate change.
The creatures he put in this time to transform the climate of the planet Gaia can only be regarded as semi-finished products, or not even semi-finished products, because they can only survive for a period of time and play a very small supporting role in the transformation.
Therefore, after seeing these Gaia plants, the minister couldn't help it.
He wanted to take more samples.
He wanted to study these samples.
He wanted to learn more about how the planet Gaia produced such special plants and use it in his project. .
After hesitating for a short while, the Minister of Climate Change decided to mention the matter to Chen Ming: "Mr. Chen Ming, have you heard about a plan we are studying?"
"I heard about Seed of Life, a very thoughtful plan."
The idea itself is grand, it is a plan to transform all terraformable planets into livable planets at very low cost.
Of course, it is very difficult. At least Chen Ming has heard about the climate transformation plan and has gone out of his way to check the results of the climate transformation department and has not found any public progress yet.
The Minister of Climate Change suddenly knelt on the ground and pulled up a small blade of grass that emitted a faint, invisible fluorescence.
This is the luminous plant that has grown rapidly to the ground under the influence of the planet's consciousness after the snow at the equator of the planet has melted, and its shape has become more suitable for the surface environment.
"I want to use the capabilities that this planet is showing now to realize this plan."
"There is consciousness on this planet, and consciousness will modify the planet to perfectly adapt to the growth of almost all living things."
"This is the hope that the Seed of Life program will continue to be implemented."
Chen Ming understands some biological related technologies.
Since these plants on the planet Gaia can transform this planet into what it once was and into a shape suitable for human survival, it is also theoretically feasible to transform other planets.
"But these plants have undergone such changes under the control of the planet's consciousness. If you just want to take away the luminous plants, it is useless. It is useless to just study these plants. You must find a way to communicate with the planet's consciousness. Communicate.”
"I have tried this, but the consciousness of the planet seems to have become very weak because the state of life on the planet has deteriorated in the past few years. I can't even find it."
"And..."
Chen Ming glanced at the minister and did not speak directly.
But his meaning was very clear. He and the Climate Change Department only had a cooperative relationship on the climate change project for the planet Gaia, and they were not close enough for Chen Ming to take the initiative to help them.
The minister was also a minister after all. He immediately understood the hidden meaning of Chen Ming’s words and said, “I heard that you are recruiting people recently.”
"It does happen, but I don't seem to have told too many people."
"This matter has spread in many places. I wonder if you are interested in starting a new project?"
"I need you to be more specific."
Chen Ming did not reject the Ministry of Climate Change in this regard. After all, they at least had no problems with climate change.
It’s just that if the Ministry of Climate Change wants to get his help, it must at least come up with something decent.
Although his research center will definitely focus on ships, psychic energy and biology in the future, and there is some biological connection with their climate modification technology, it is only a connection.
He needs more valuable information, at least so that he can see the value of investing.
You can't just talk about it and think about what he can give.
Just like Chen Ming directly told the Empire that he could build a Dyson Sphere before he discovered the special effects of Astrophago's bodily fluids.
No matter how outrageous Chen Ming's abilities were, most people in the empire would not believe it.
But when Chen Ming took out the body fluids of the Astral Devourer, what he said really became valuable.
The minister seemed very confident in this: "I believe that the technology of our project has great potential."
He operated a few times on his terminal and seemed to have unlocked some permissions. Then he handed it to Chen Ming and said, "This is what we have researched now."
Chen Ming reached out and took over the terminal. He did not use spiritual energy to control it. Instead, he followed the file that the minister just opened and looked at the technology called Life Seeder.
This is a giant movable biological petri dish that condenses everything in the entire climate transformation process into this device.
Whether it is the climate modification gas, or the organisms that assist the diffusion of the modification gas, or everything needed in the later stages of climate modification, all are installed in this device.
Unlike a single device, it lacks something that connects all the functions together, a unique creature that can meet all needs.
Rather than man-made short-lived organisms that can only play a supporting role in climate change.
It can be seen that the research direction of the Department of Climate Change is very clear, which is to take the path of biotechnology.
After all, in terms of cost alone, the cost of biological products is relatively low.
And judging from the completeness of this document, this life seeder is already at the theoretical completion stage, but it lacks actual climate-modified organisms that can be sown.
As long as you can find the right creature, the rest will fall into place.
Chen Ming's expression was obviously a little moved. This can be regarded as being deliberately shown to the minister.
But he didn’t understand one thing: “Why have I never heard that this technology is so mature?”
The minister's expression was a little helpless and sad, but he immediately calmed down and said: "Because I am worried that someone will take it away."
"Maybe you don't know, but many times projects like ours are not important to the empire, but they do have a certain gold content, and the people who study them have no background, which is special to many people. ”
"Help people gild, right?"
Although Chen Ming has never encountered similar problems along the way, after all, he is a psyker and has a powerful psyker as his backer.
But he had experienced many similar things in his previous life.
All I can say is that you can't escape these anywhere.
"Then you're not worried about me?"
The minister looked down at the blade of grass he had just pulled up and said: "This technology has been stuck for several years. This is our last hope."
There was obvious desire in his tone of voice, and there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Uh-huh." Chen Ming responded ambiguously and asked: "Does that mean you have been looking for the right creature for several years?"
"Yes, we have basically been busy with this in recent years, and most of the funds have been invested here. We heard that the person you are cooperating with has very advanced biotechnology, and we also want to find him, but we There is no contact information for you and that person.”
“We didn’t see this opportunity until you contacted us.”
Chen Ming shook his head slightly and asked: "Are you so obsessed with this? You should know that the Empire has no shortage of habitable planets. The universe is so big, and there will be many habitable planets waiting for the Empire to discover."
"This technology has no future at all."
The minister seemed to hear the rejection in Chen Ming's words, and was a little uncontrollably disappointed.
"This is my ideal. I want to make every planet a livable planet."
"I also know that this is unlikely, so I have relaxed my goals. As long as they have the potential to become habitable planets, I hope they can become livable planets."
"Why?"
"Because I want to."
Chen Ming frowned slightly. He could feel that the last sentence the minister said was not true
But Chen Ming didn't hear any dangerous feeling in his words. He had some more personal purpose in doing so.
After thinking about it, Chen Ming asked again: "Are the rest of you also willing to invest in this kind of place? How many years? Do they have no objection?"
"People who have opinions will not stay. Our department has not had new employees for about four or five years, and everyone who is still there is willing to invest in this project."
While responding to Chen Ming, the minister silently talked to himself in his heart.
They may stay because they have the same ideals as him, maybe because they are free, or maybe they just like it here, but in any case they stay.
Chen Ming stared at the minister for a long time, thinking about the risks and benefits of doing so.
He suddenly looked up at the sky, then at the sparse grass beneath his feet, and then made a decision.
"What else do you need for your project?"
The minister was stunned for a moment, thought about what Chen Ming meant, and asked with some surprise: "You agree?"
"Yes, tell me what else you need for your project, and I will help you prepare it, but you will need to do your best for the subsequent research."
The minister couldn't help but want to laugh, but he still had to maintain respect in front of Chen Ming and quickly controlled his emotions.
But he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"Speaking of which, what is your name, Minister?"
"Tianbian."
Chen Ming agreed to the request for cooperation with the Ministry of Climate Change.
He directly sent the information about his research center that was supposed to only be given to some high-level officials of the empire and the corps.
When the scientific research center opens to the public, a special place will be allocated for them.
At present, it seems that Tian Xuan plans to change jobs with the entire climate transformation department.
It’s not impossible.
The Climate Change Department itself is an idle department.
Hundreds of people from top to bottom have already been busy working on the automated climate transformation that was extremely difficult in theory some time ago, and they have even achieved almost critical results.
I just happened to have discovered the glowing plants on the planet Gaia, and now that I have the key to achieving results, it’s normal for me to switch jobs.
In this era, it does not mean that working for the government is necessarily a good thing.
For aspiring researchers, it is most normal to go wherever there are resources.
It's just that usually the resources provided by the government will be the most sufficient, but since Chen Ming can provide more, there will always be people coming to Chen Ming's side.
Of course, there will definitely be researchers who just want status and money.
Therefore, Chen Ming was curious about whether the Climate Transformation Department would lose some people who were important to research by switching jobs.
However, Tian Xian said that he would do ideological work and would give Chen Ming a reply soon.
Of course, the two of them will not do these things immediately, but Chen Ming can try to do something about Tian Xuan's thoughts now.
Chen Ming asked Tian Xiang to wait for a while, and at the same time called his own ship, the High Point, to jump to the orbit of the Gaia planet.
There is a special cultivation area on his spaceship, where some fruits and vegetables that Chen Ming finds delicious are grown.
Of course, the most important thing is his fairy tree.
Chen Ming's purpose in calling Supreme Point over was simple.
He wanted to realize an idea he had spoken about before.
Plant the fairy tree on this planet of Gaia.
Although the Gaia planet at this time is still colder than a normal habitable planet, the fairy tree, as a psychic creature, is not that fragile.
The characteristics of the fairy tree itself should help Chen Ming achieve some goals.
The location where the fairy tree was planted was right at Chen Ming's feet, right at the equator, where the climate of the planet Gaia is the most stable.
There is no need to consider the quality of soil, air, or water resources.
As long as he plants the fairy tree, he believes that the consciousness of the planet will come over and help him take care of the fairy tree.
Chen Ming took the fairy tree out from the highest point and placed it in the deep hole just dug on the ground.
Before he even asked the robot responsible for digging the soil to fill the hole, he saw the soil deep underground was crawling.
Of course, this is not because the soil is really moving, but because some Gaia plants are pushing the soil under the soil and wrapping the roots of the fairy tree.
The fairy tree can soothe the human consciousness, and of course it can soothe the consciousness of all living things.
When the fairy tree was planted on the planet Gaia.
Chen Ming finally felt a powerful, but extremely weak, consciousness that was close to dissipating in existence, appearing near him.
That is the consciousness of this planet Gaia.
Tian Xuan next to him was all focused on the Gaia plants that were filling the deep pit where the fairy trees were planted, and did not notice at all that Chen Ming was communicating with Gaia consciousness.
soon.
Where the fairy tree was planted, a Gaia plant with the characteristics of fairy leaves grew from the renovated soil,
It quickly grows into an adult plant, blooms, bears fruit, and wilts.
The pulp also quickly rotted into mud, leaving only the seeds on the stump. After shaking a few times, they fell in front of Chen Ming.
Chen Ming picked up the seeds and held them in his hands.
He could feel that the inside of this plant contained a certain amount of sleeping planetary consciousness.
It's just a weak consciousness that only retains the instinct to maintain life. It will die after carrying out activities for a period of time.
This is exactly the creature Tian Xiang needs, meeting all his needs.
But it's not perfect yet.
The consciousness contained in this seed may not be able to adapt to different planetary environments.
Therefore, this seed still requires specialized cultivation and reproduction in the laboratory to create a creature truly suitable for a life seeder.
Chen Ming handed the seed to Tian Xiang and said, "This is what you want. The rest is your business. If the seeds are not enough, you can come over and get new samples at any time."
"You will have to worry more about the climate modification of this planet in the future."
"The location of this planet..."
Chen Ming pointed to the top of his head.
Outside the atmosphere that is now slowly recovering, the wormhole connecting to the original galaxy is rotating around it.
Whether it is this original galaxy or the Gaia galaxy that is now connected to the original galaxy and is so close in physical distance that it can almost be said to be the same galaxy, they are all...
"...very important."
Chen Mingzai regards the Origin Galaxy as the foothold for his expansion of the world before the wormhole.
Then this galaxy, this Gaia planet, is the starting point for his expansion into the world after the wormhole.
However, Chen Ming is not in a hurry to develop externally for the time being. It is more important to establish a firm foothold.
He also needs to take care of things in the Origin Galaxy.
As for the Gaia galaxy, he has sent some reconnaissance fleets to conduct preliminary reconnaissance of the surrounding information, confirm the general situation of each galaxy and whether it is dangerous, and assign a development priority.
When he has the energy to control this aspect carefully, he can then start development.
Moreover, Chen Ming has recently become a little bit dissatisfied with the Zerg's crude resource extraction methods.
He needs a more refined development method.
As for what to do specifically, he already has an idea, and he can use it when he starts developing planets around the Gaia galaxy.
In addition, Chen Ming also did something in the past two weeks.
It was during the communication with the survivors that the tone of conducting a transaction in January was determined.
Other than that, the rest of the two weeks are not worth mentioning.
Everything is stable and slowly developing towards the situation that Chen Ming wants to see most.
And time began to pass quickly again without realizing it.
Two months disappeared in the past.
