CHAPTER 554: CHAPTER 214: RETURN, CAUSALITY ESTABLISHED!

This way, it can reassure them a bit, not fearing an attack from high-dimensional civilizations.

There are no hidden motives, hoping to bring people over for rescue operations on their own.

As for whether they might harm me.

I’m not afraid.

The Golden Core identity is here.

Those unafraid of death can try.

Zhang Feng feels confident now, speaking with great assertiveness.

As the meeting begins.

Zhang Feng is very familiar with this kind of meeting, so he directly presents the relevant data, explaining to them the stakes involved.

He also emphasized that the ’dome technology’ needs to be accelerated.

Everyone fell into deep thought upon hearing this, unable to respond immediately.

Watching them ponder, Zhang Feng thought to himself, to be honest.

Considering their current technology, withstanding an extinction-level great flood is entirely possible.

Even if parts of the land subsided, as long as preparations are made early, building some tall superconductor structures,

combined with the early moving of the populace to high mountains,

though not entirely foolproof, at least a small-scale rescue of people can be achieved.

At least to Zhang Feng, a catastrophic disaster is a disaster because it’s a large-scale sudden event.

But the source has now been found.

The remaining issue is how to ensure the safety of more people.

For this, Zhang Feng feels that with current technology, there are only two possibilities.

First, based on calculations from the superconducting buildings over the past decade.

The dome already has a stable theoretical prototype.

In the presence of a prototype, building ten thousand ’dome ships,’ each accommodating seventy thousand people, can house the entire global population.

Of course, superconductors work too, but in terms of strength, they can’t compare to the dome of higher composite materials.

But while the dome is excellent, in calculations, its maximum capacity is only around seventy thousand people.

After all, these people need to bring various living facilities and some personal items.

Especially within the dome, a complete living system needs to be built, which is a very heavy load.

It’s important to realize that the dome is defending in the sea, not on land, so the weight of these things needs to be self-contained.

This is a weight limit challenge, currently not better optimized.

But in terms of current technology, this isn’t a difficult hurdle to overcome in terms of load.

If necessary, build more domes to distribute the load.

Zhang Feng feels this is feasible.

These data were also projected onto the big screen by Zhang Feng.

Then, the second method is the clumsy way.

Try to reduce industrial activity and extend disaster time indefinitely.

As long as it drags on until thirty years later, without disaster occurring, then perhaps the rescue mission is completed in disguise.

If considered complete, then wait until the world freezes, and when one’s strength is higher, one can try to come back and deal with it.

This second option is certainly safer, but it’s unknown if it counts as completion.

Off the main line, it has been marked as ’saving a million people when disaster occurs.’

Zhang Feng thought for a moment, ultimately deciding to use the first method.

Directly build the dome ships.

This way, first, it can technologically back-feed reality, and since this world has an interstellar plan, building domes first ensures safety, and then building interstellar battleships is a logical progression.

No matter how you think about it, this is reasonable.

At the same time.

Without Zhang Feng saying anything, these smart people thought for a while, and after reviewing the data on the screen, recalled Zhang Feng’s dome plan.

Although they felt superconductors were also viable and more practical.

But through ’Siwei’s’ Golden Core abilities,

they feel that the dome is still better.

"I unconditionally trust Dean Zhang..."

"The perspective of the Siwei civilization must see further than we do..."

"The dome is a crucial part of future interstellar development."

This is how they mutually convinced each other.

The Golden Core still carries absolute authority, far more than mere evidence.

At least those who initially supported superconductors now unconditionally support the dome.

And Zhang Feng is also thinking, with the current supercomputing power in this world, it’s far superior to that in the real world.

Then, with the possibility of further optimizing the dome, the mechanical platforms in the real world could use the dome to construct ’partial foundations.’

Because in terms of material synthesis, the dome differs significantly from superconductors.

This way, different raw materials from Earth can be utilized.

Achieving balance in material terms.

...

In the years that followed, what Zhang Feng once envisioned was achieved, focusing wholeheartedly on building domes.

After learning some causal rules, his mood completely relaxed these years, entering seclusion for cultivation, striving to quickly reach the Golden Core Perfection.

In a blink of an eye.

Another six years have passed.

Zhang Feng began to condense the Nascent Soul, striving to reach 70% completion before this world ends.

If the next world is similarly lengthy, the Nascent Soul will essentially be completed.

By then, one’s perception should be stronger, with more high-dimensional capabilities.

If encountering similar situations again, perhaps one could try to ’repair’ things through force.

Though my battle-ready Golden Core isn’t yet perfect, its magic could cover a city; Nascent Soul, at least three or four cities.

Using the strength of three or four cities to slowly repair undersea breaches, reinforced with magic.

Zhang Feng feels this should be feasible, at least much better than Golden Core alone.

...

And in the subsequent years, as dome technology was developed,

the effects of their misguided venture into the superconductor tech tree manifested.

Specifically, the dome construction process was rapid.

The superiority of superconductor transmission, combined with Z1’s unlimited energy, led to the envy of building ten dome battleships a month.

Those unwilling to leave their homeland went to the reinforced plateaus by the dome.

Although it’s a small fraction preserved on land, most people moved to the dome on the sea.

This area is a series of floating ’transparent ships,’ with living facilities sufficient for seventy thousand people to live worry-free.

As for dome materials, it’s akin to glass-like acrylic with high transparency.

This is much like the high-civilization shield Zhang Feng envisioned.

It also indirectly confirmed to Zhang Feng that his research direction on shields was correct.
