Chapter 512: The Best of Both Worlds
As he spoke, Ning Chen told Song Xiyun some of the more specific principles.
Song Xiyun has a very strong understanding ability and quickly understood the theory involved.
"I see, in this case, we can receive some information that Pierce can receive, and it will not attract the attention of anyone, including Pierce."
"Yes. , Song Xiyun, in fact, I can wake up Pierce at any time and let him return to his original form, but once such a thing really happens, Pierce's danger will rise linearly..."
After helping the "Believers of God" organization complete the assassination of Ning Chen, Pierce has gained a high degree of trust among the members of the organization, and this is also the result that Ning Chen very much hopes to achieve.
As long as those members of the organization do not doubt Pierce's true identity, Pierce will be very safe if he continues to stay in the organization, and may even gain a higher status in the organization.
Relying on the ultra-long-distance instantaneous quantum communication technology that Ning Chen developed some time ago, even if Pierce does not actively cooperate with Ning Chen, it will still not affect Ning Chen's ability to understand the information received by Pierce.
At this moment, Song Xiyun couldn't help but admire Ning Chen more and more. Long before Pierce joined the organization, Ning Chen was able to think of so many things and make such sufficient decisions in advance. Get ready, this is something that feels incredible.
However, Song Xiyun is still a little worried about whether Star Technology still has the ability to continue to compete with the "Believers of God" organization after it continues to grow.
"Ning Chen, now Xingchen Technology has made concessions to this evil organization on some matters. If this continues, will the previous incident of the Blue Star's atmosphere being blocked happen again?"
"Don't worry, Song Xiyun, a similar situation will never happen again. In fact, Star Technology is not incapable of fighting this evil organization now, it just deliberately leaves some space for them in some places. Between us So we choose to do this just to catch big fish in the long run. Everything that happens now is under our control.”
After all, this evil organization can only use what is taught by a few alien civilizations. Technology, under the premise that Xingchen Technology controls some of Blue Star's key strongholds, the current security issues of Blue Star can still be guaranteed.
Ning Chen's words also made Song Xiyun feel relieved. As long as Star Technology can persist long enough, it is entirely possible for them to take this opportunity to secretly develop technology and face their real enemy.
…………
After it was confirmed that Ning Chen had lost his vital signs, the "Believers of God" organization quickly expanded the size of their organization, and soon reached the level of the organization a few months ago.
No matter how hard they try, they still cannot completely replace Xingchen Technology. Even though Ning Chen is no longer here, Xingchen Technology still has a very strong basic strength. This is definitely not a "believer of God" The organization can be shaken easily.
This brings the two sides into a relatively balanced state. Instead of trying to eliminate each other again, it is better to focus on developing their own strength. This is a benefit for both sides. The choice to maximize profits.
In the latest meeting held by the "Believers of God" organization, members of the organization studied their future development plans together.
This time, Pierce was also invited to participate in this meeting, and this was also the first time Pierce participated in such an important organizational meeting.
In addition to Pierce, the organizational members who attended the meeting were either senior leaders in the organization or members who had made important contributions to the development of the organization.
This is enough to show how high Pierce's status is in the organization now, because to help the organization achieve the goal of getting rid of Ning Chen, even the number one figure in the organization has to sacrifice three times to face Pierce. Much respect.
After the meeting began, they first discussed the matter of eliminating Ning Chen again, which immediately made the atmosphere in the meeting boil.
“Being able to accomplish this goal is largely due to the addition of Mr. Kim Pierce! Mr. Kim Pierce is a good member of our organization. Let us celebrate Pierce’s performance together. And cheers!”
Afterwards, everyone gathered around Pierce and applauded and cheered for him, as if Pierce was the hero of the entire Blue Star civilization.
Pierce himself acted very calmly, as if these things had nothing to do with him, which made Pierce seem a little out of tune with other people.
However, everyone has long been accustomed to Pierce's calm reaction. They think it's just because Pierce doesn't care about fame and fortune. This even enhances everyone's admiration for Pierce.
After everyone celebrated, the number one figure in the organization said:
“Okay, the discussion on this matter can now come to an end. Since we are As an organization dedicated to leading Blue Star Civilization, the current situation is definitely not enough to satisfy us. Next, let’s discuss some of the future development directions of our organization.”
Afterwards, members of the organization raised their hands one after another and talked about their thoughts.
"Boss, I think we should pursue the victory and completely eliminate Star Technology. As long as Star Technology disappears from this world, no one will be able to affect our organization's status in Blue Star Civilization."
"Yes, without Ning Chen, Xingchen Technology seems to have lost its mainstay. Now is our best chance to destroy Xingchen Technology. Boss, please stop hesitating."
"Even Xingchen Technology itself has not denied the news that Ning Chen has lost his vital signs. Now Xingchen Technology is just trying to prevent itself from collapsing, but this situation will not last long. "
But. The persuasion of these people did not affect the thoughts of the organization's number one figure.
“I can understand everyone’s mood. We have been trying to eliminate Xingchen Technology before, but the actual situation is not as simple as everyone imagined. Although Xingchen Technology has lost Ning Chen, I have to admit that they still have a very strong basic strength. At least in a short period of time, we will not be able to pull Xingchen Technology from its current position immediately..."
After the mood gradually calmed down, everyone gradually realized that these words were indeed true.
Whether Ning Chen is still alive in this world or not, it will not immediately have a fundamental impact on the strength of Xingchen Technology. Losing Ning Chen will only affect the subsequent development potential of Xingchen Technology.
At this time, an organization member said:
"Boss, what should we do next? Maintaining such a stalemate is not a good thing for us, right? "With everyone's expectant eyes, the organization's number one person said:
"My plan is that we will use Mars as a future development base. Xingchen Technology has conducted a manned exploration of Mars before. The mission and their findings are enough to prove that Mars is indeed a planet with the potential to be transformed. Due to what happened before, Star Technology will not conduct another manned exploration mission to Mars in the short term, and this is also one of ours. Good opportunity..."
After learning of his ideas, other members of the organization also expressed support for such a plan.
After the rapid development of science and technology of a civilization, just one mother star will not be able to meet the development needs of a civilization. This civilization will definitely continue to explore other planets.
Once they have control of Mars, they will be able to develop various technologies on Mars, thus greatly accelerating their technological development.
"Yes, boss, this is indeed a good plan! With the technology taught to us by 'God', we are enough to complete the goal of flying to Mars. When we develop on Mars for a few years, then Star Technology will no longer be our opponent.”
In fact, many of the technologies taught to them by "gods" have not yet been developed due to environmental constraints, and Mars is an excellent place to develop these technologies.
However, in order to achieve the goal of occupying Mars, they must send enough people to Mars, including enough scientific researchers.
“Okay, since everyone agrees with this idea, who wants to go to Mars?”
After a moment of silence, there were not many people raising their hands in the entire venue, and not many people raised their hands. Only a few people who were particularly interested in space operations raised their hands.
After all, many people understand that they can have a more comfortable life on Blue Star, but Mars is still an unexplored place. Going there is more likely to lead to suffering in vain.
What worries everyone more is the safety issue of going to Mars. If they really "gone never to return" because of this, all their efforts in the organization over the years will be in vain.
Since most of the people present were senior leaders in the organization, their willingness to go to Mars became even lower. The last time the organization went to the moon, many of the astronauts were only the lowest in the organization. They are just members. Because of the high rewards given by the organization, they are willing to take risks and go to the moon.
The final result also proved that such a space operation is indeed full of dangers, because in the end, no one of the dozens of people who went to the moon came back alive.
Seeing that everyone is not very enthusiastic about going to Mars in person, the number one person in the organization can't help but feel a little dissatisfied.
Because if there are no senior leaders of the organization and some professional scientific researchers who are willing to go to Mars, it will be a very detrimental thing to the goal of opening up a brand new organizational base.
At this time, he saw Pierce, who had been silent, and suddenly had a new idea in his heart.
"Pierce, I wonder if you are willing to lead our organization and be responsible for the development project of Mars? You don't have to be nervous. This is not an order from the organization, but just a query. Whether you want it or not, it doesn't matter. . ”
The reason why the number one person in the organization suddenly proposed that Pierce should be responsible for this project was actually because he had considered a lot of pros and cons in his heart.
First of all, as the world's top materials science expert, Pierce has very strong scientific research capabilities, which is very suitable for taking the lead in researching some high-tech projects.
Secondly, Pierce's current prestige in the organization is too high. Naturally, he will not like this kind of situation where he is overshadowed by his superior achievements.
However, because Pierce has indeed made a very significant contribution to the organization, if he suppresses Pierce at this time, it will only affect his impression among other organizational members.
Even though Pierce is no longer as valuable as he was before, he must continue to be treated as a meritorious figure in the organization.
Sending Pierce to Mars is a solution that has the best of both worlds.
On the one hand, Pierce can continue to use his abilities so that his scientific research talent will not be wasted. On the other hand, it can also solve the problem of Pierce's too high prestige and allow Pierce to leave Blue Star temporarily.
At the same time, this arrangement will not make other organization members feel that they are targeting Pierce, because being able to take charge of this project is a huge honor in itself.
Pierce hesitated for a few seconds before giving his answer.
"Thank you, boss, for trusting me. I am willing to lead this project. However, I still need to deal with the work accumulated at Shengzhou University first, and then apply for suspension of work and job retention with Shengzhou University..."
At this moment, Pierce does not plan to completely leave Shengzhou University immediately. After all, once he makes such a decision, it may mean that he will never go back.
No one really doubts that Ning Chen's death has anything to do with Pierce. If Pierce suddenly disappears immediately, it might arouse other people's suspicions.
After listening to Pierce's concerns, others also expressed their understanding of Pierce's thoughts.
"It's okay, Pierce. Just feel free to deal with the matters at Shengzhou University. The matter of going to Mars is not that urgent yet. I am also very happy that you are willing to accept this mission."
After lightly nodding, Pierce said nothing more. After the meeting, Pierce returned to Shengzhou University to prepare for various matters in the next stage.
In fact, Pierce never thought that after completing his goal of getting rid of Ning Chen, he would continue to hold such an important responsibility in the organization.
