Wasteland Development Diary
Chapter 718 - 2: Cultivators of the Wasteland Era
When Zhou Yi first got the news, he was also surprised.
Artificial Sun No. 101 served as the carrier for the promised Golden Tree, supplying it while wandering in the outer world.
To date, the company has only manufactured 7 suns. To differentiate functions, the sequence for the Golden Tree was established separately, starting from No. 101 onward.
Initially, the consciousness of the Golden Tree projected into it, and during test flights on the ground, everything seemed fine with all parameters normal.
But upon entering the high-altitude orbit, just as it was about to leave Earth's gravitational field, No. 101 suddenly went berserk, summoning a Gemstone Transformer from the dark space.
Stranger still, the Supervisor arranged by the Heavenly People did not attack, expel, or inspect No. 101, but instead directly entered the interior of the Artificial Sun.
The Golden Tree was also unclear about this.
[It seems like I've completely integrated that thing with the Artificial Sun I'm in. Because I felt their energy orbits were very compatible, and merging them could widen the orbit.]
[On the energy level, this Artificial Sun is rapidly increasing. There are some special changes internally, but on the material level, I'm currently bound by the strings and cannot analyze it.]
[I'll tell you when there's a situation.]
Zhou Yixin's heart calmed slightly.
So he turned his attention back to the present.
Three Celestial Envoys collectively visited the company, revealing their identities and hoping to collaborate. This was unprecedented in history.
Considering the other Celestial Envoys, the Old King, Black Emperor II, and Verne are all effectively aligned with the company. Except for the newly appointed third Envoy, almost all have had their collective interests integrated by the company.
The lead, Gluttonous Duke, stated outright, saying they wanted the company to provide the Dead Sea Park.
"I heard that your company's Dead Sea Park is divided into three levels. Level 1 is equivalent to the past Dead Sea's Death Light density on Earth, Level 2 intensity matches that of the Outer Sea, and Level 3 is an area of ultra-high Death Light density that is 81 times higher and can be directed with almost no impurities..."
Zhou Yi nodded: "That is indeed the case."
This change originated from Cao Dayuan.
He did relocation work for a while and came back saying that most Dead Sea relocation households, able to receive money or new housing, could accept it. However, regarding relocation to the new high-altitude Inner Sea, the relocated showed little interest.
Cao Dayuan privately drank, conversed, and inquired with them one by one. With his unique affinity, credibility, and reputation, the nearby Guangna Species were willing to tell him the truth.
The reason was.
The Guangna Species were unwilling to adapt to the new environment, especially in the sky. They did not doubt the company's technical ability to build a high-altitude living area. But it was too close to the dangerous Outer Sea, too far from the solid and reliable ground.
A long-necked crocodile of the Guangna Species drunkenly told Cao Dayuan.
"Brother Cao, don't say I'm indiscreet, your costs are too high for being so high, too expensive and labor-intensive without appreciation. I say, since you already intercepted Dead Light Energy from outside Earth, why not just create an artificial Dead Sea area right on the ground."
Cao Dayuan immediately paid attention and filled its glass: "Tell me more."
"Look here."
Emboldened by alcohol, the other party became increasingly excited and smug: "Just create patches of Dead Sea zones on the ground, like puddles formed on the road after rain."
"Your technology should certainly be able to do that, right? Since you can absorb the Dead Sea, surely directing their flow should not be an issue."
The Dead Sea area's size may reduce, but by creating Dead Sea depressions, the energy intensity inside can be increased, making up quantity with quality.
"Why do those Skywalkers and sea lords want to go to the Outer Sea? It's because there are Firewood Mounds and Heavenly Pearls there, which can increase consciousness strength, and the environment is naturally superior to the Inner Sea."
Our Inner Sea feeds on the leftovers of Outer Sea energy and contains a lot of ground impurities. Over there, the intensity is more than ten times that here, so the absorption rate for Guangna Species is worlds apart; what they can do in a day takes us ten days to achieve.
High-density, high-purity Death Light fundamentally enhances the bodies of the Guangna Species. That's why the world's top powerhouses all go to the Outer Sea... of course, I'm talking about the past, because now with the company, that situation has indeed changed.
Cao Dayuan then came over with the long-necked crocodile and reported this matter to Zhou Yi.
The long-necked crocodile, emboldened by alcohol, suddenly sobered up significantly upon seeing the company chairman, stuttering in speech.
Zhou Yi took it very seriously and immediately invited it in to hold an internal company meeting, requiring all departmental heads on Earth to attend, formally discussing the feasibility of the Dead Sea depression.
After evaluation and simulation, the Dead Sea relocation and renovation project was adjusted.
The idea from the long-necked crocodile became a reality, leading to the creation of the Dead Sea Park.
This long-necked crocodile, who offered advice while drunk, Gao Liang, also received a generous bonus, became a special talent hired by the company, and became Cao Dayuan's assistant.
...
Zhou Yi looked at the three Celestial Envoys before him.
Even they were extremely interested in the Dead Sea Park.
Zhou Yi was curious: "You need this too?"
"Very much so."
The Gluttonous Duke, wearing a golden crown, earnestly said: "Mr. Zhou, although we are Celestial Envoys, we cannot defy natural laws. We cannot create a high-density Death Light space."
For many years, it has been proven that solo efforts, even for Envoys, are untenable. If one wants to manage a group, they must consider its growth and new blood.
