Chapter 90 Diligent

Without artificial intervention, the surface of Pt52 is around minus 150 degrees all year round. Even the side exposed to direct sunlight can only rise by 100 degrees, and it is still bitingly cold. The temperature near the nuclear fusion heat engine is enough to melt steel, so only magnetic constraints are used.

The shield can prevent it from destroying itself. With it as the center, the temperature gradually decreases. When the forces of high temperature and extreme cold are balanced, a ring area with suitable temperature for habitation will appear.

The settlements of self-organizing people are distributed in this ring, and Alex's destination is also there.

Flying directly above the nuclear fusion thermal station is the shortest distance, but it must endure high-heat simulated solar radiation, which is very dangerous, so flying flat on the ground through wind and snow is essential. As it continues to approach the settlement area, the snowflakes turn into

The rain turned into mist, and then the surrounding area began to dry. When the ambient temperature reached 14 degrees Celsius, Alex could already see the upside-down bowl-shaped ecological colony.

Five tall, strong, naked natives—the word seemed to apply to any self-contained human being—were waiting for him, two of them with weapons in their hands, and the other three with loading and unloading tools at their feet.

Their caution is understandable. Alex will also carry a double-barreled impact gun and a computing stick. Only being fully armed is the basic respect for the dangerous universe.

The Liuma stopped steadily, facing the camp from its side, and Alex opened the hatch. He was wearing a spacesuit, which was part of the life support system. There were ten sets on the entire spacecraft. Produced by Composite Evolutionary,

Especially those used by composite evolved humans, they will never be sloppy in terms of technological content and workmanship. Even with weapons on the other side, Amy did not follow Alex because she believed in the protective capabilities of these space suits.

Oh, by the way. Only brain-controlled bodies can turn on the combat defense shields of these space suits. Without brain-controlled bodies, there are only environmental isolation and life-sustaining self-sustaining functions. Composite evolved people are only good to their own people, and this has never changed.

.

Alex raised the weapon above his head and hung it clearly by his side. This is a more universal greeting method than waving. Communication based on deterrence is easier to develop than communication based on trust. Alex will

The hatch of the starship was fully opened, allowing the other party to clearly see the green guinea pig still in the east. He then walked forward, connected to the local communication network, and talked to them using the public channel prescribed by the composite evolutionaries.

"The first batch of goods, 110 green guinea pigs, arrived on time. Check it for acceptance."

"You are half an hour ahead of schedule." A self-generated creature said, "Is the road going well?"

"It went well, so we can go ahead." Alex followed the other party's words and asked: "Is there any danger in the nearby star field?"

"Twelve days ago, an unknown starship passed by, stayed in the orbit of the planet for four hours, and then left. They did not respond or identify themselves, and acted a little suspicious. But that was twelve days ago, you

Don’t worry too much.”

"Twelve days, enough to run a long way." Alex thanked them for the reminder. Regardless of whether this was true or not, the residents of Pt52 showed kindness. "Shall I help you unload the goods? Do you want me to move?

Starship, closer to your camp?"

"This distance is no problem." The self-made creature seemed to be unwilling to do anything, and followed Alex towards the starship. The pig in the cage was blown by the warm wind outside and began to sweat restlessly, but he still couldn't wake up.

Come on. "Hurry up and load the truck and send it to the outer cages. Otherwise, if they get diarrhea, you still have to clean them!"

It seems that the self-made organisms are also very aware of the characteristics of these genetically modified organisms, and no one is willing to clean up the mess, so they all speed up their actions. Alex controls the tractor beam next to the hatch to unload the cargo, and several self-made organisms are waiting.

If not, come forward directly

He grabbed the cage with his hand, put it on his shoulder, and walked down with big steps. There were an average of five or six pigs in a cage, which was quite a heavy weight. Alex had to lament how cruel the Beolo people were to his genes.

, this breeds both giants and strong men.

Composite evolved humans cannot be that strong unless they use evolutionary plug-ins or exoskeleton armor.

"You guys are really amazing." Alex was operating the tractor beam while chatting with the self-organizing man next to him. "The climate here is harsh, but you can persevere and use your body to directly fight against it. I envy you very much."

"You are wrong. We actually envy people like you who own starships and can fly into space. Those who stay in this kind of pioneering land are losers and will not have any development in this life."

"This? Being able to open up frontiers, isn't this development?"

"Our job is to maintain the fusion heat station and then wait for the environmental modification equipment to complete its work. After that, the developed planet will leave some benefits to us and our descendants, that's all. Since we don't know how long it will take for geological modification,

Maybe we won’t be able to complete it even when our lives come to the end, and we may have to fill in part of the lives of our descendants. A life that waits without effort, isn’t it a loser?”

"Oh..." Alex responded, but he did not agree with the idea of ​​​​this self-contained biological man. The work of maintaining fusion heat stations and environmental modification equipment may be very tedious, but it is necessary work. I think

To obtain a new habitable planet, you must put in labor, which cannot be saved. Moreover, after the transformation of the planet is completed, these pioneers and their descendants will automatically receive part of the benefits of the planet, which sounds very reasonable.

Since there will be benefits in the future and we have to live now, why not work harder now to make the benefits more abundant in the future? Beolo has top-notch biotechnology, and self-contained biological humans can adapt to the environment near the settlement, so they can

Plants are cultivated here, animals are raised, villages and even cities are built, factories are opened... If you are lazy, you can be lazy under any pressure; if you are diligent, you can live a fulfilling life in any boring environment.

Doesn't a starship captain just drive a spaceship around? From A to B, and then to C, D, E... This second in life takes the same time as the previous second, which can make a difference between them.

Only the efforts made by people in this second.

Even if you are running back and forth, you can still use your initiative and do something different. "Do you need anything else here? I have to go back and forth to Beolo Star many times, so I can try to transport some to you."

The starship driving only required Alex and Amy as insurance, which was enough. He thought that when he returned, he could leave Red and Green on Beolo to help the people in this remote colony purchase some things, and wait for the next trip.

You can pack more supplies when you go back at one time, wouldn't you be able to make a little extra money?

Although they paid in the currency of Beolo and would suffer losses when converting it into computing power coins, it was very cost-effective to use it to purchase some general accessories for nuclear fusion fuel. The biological products here are also very popular in some places, leaving

You can also improve your life by using it yourself. In short, your efforts will not be in vain.

"I can help you ask, but don't hold out too much hope. Life here is self-sufficient. Our bodies can absorb the surrounding heat and use methane and oxygen in the air as well as nitrogen and water on the ground to survive."

"What about entertainment products? There are a lot of literary works on my starship, mainly novels, biographies and scripts."

"We only like confrontational sports, such as wrestling."

I believe they are all good wrestlers. After selling for a while, Alex found that the locals were inexperienced. Apart from wrestling with him, they seemed to have no desire. Is this their nature, or is it because they want to survive the pioneering planet?

Because of the boring time, Alex was transformed like this? Alex had this question in his mind, but it was difficult to ask it.

Fortunately, not all self-organizing people are so boring. Alex's willingness to help purchase items spread through the radio, and he still received some requests. After all, it is still impossible for this pioneering land on the border to be completely self-sufficient.

Nor does demand stop at satisfying self-sufficiency.

Coming from the habit of his previous service work, Alex liked good reviews. When he saw that the unloading was almost completed, he said to them: "After you unload the goods, you still need to use trucks to move these heat-sensitive pigs to another place. You might as well move them wherever they go.

Tell me, I can just land there. For me, this distance is just a matter of fine-tuning the landing window. I won't charge you more for it."

Several self-organized people discussed it, but they couldn't make a decision at that time, and asked Alex to wait. Are they really so passive and passive? Is this also a difficulty in choosing? Alex

He felt a little weird, but he couldn't force the customer. So he accepted the request to "wait for some time before discussing this matter" and piloted the Liuma to fly into space again.

With the latest gravity data of the arrival path, the route can be further optimized. The gravity of large celestial bodies can cause disturbances to the warp speed, which is resistance most of the time, but it can also be a boost if used properly. Alex did not relax himself.

First, use the computing power of the brain-controlled body to complete the path calculation, and then enter the warp speed calmly. The updated route is expected to save five minutes, although it is not much, but this is progress, not standing still.

Returning to Beolo Star, Red and Green stayed at the star port in the southern hemisphere. With purchase orders and fees advanced by the pioneers in their hands, Alex and Amy continued to drive the starship to move pigs in the ice and snow of the northern hemisphere. They talked on the phone.

In the report, Mr. Jin and Boss Ming are working very smoothly. Xiaoxiao is still undergoing treatment and has not replied to the message. I hope everything is fine.

With the experience of one trip, I will be familiar with the road again. In less than two and a half days, the third batch of goods was also delivered very smoothly. The progress was better than Alex expected, but the self-made creature was still warm.

Unloading goods in the area, there is still no reply to the offer of door-to-door delivery of the enhanced version. Alex doesn't care now, he just needs to show a friendly attitude, and the other party will have to consider whether he will accept it or not.

"You are fully capable of handling ordinary affairs, so you can complete the return trip yourself. I will go to the mobile computing core to adjust. It may take a while - come to me if there is an emergency."

"Sister, don't worry. Except for the atmosphere here and the landing trajectory of Beolo Star, this road can be completed by autonomous driving. Changes in the gravitational environment do not happen overnight, what can happen? Just concentrate on

Let’s get used to it!”

The empty warehouse took off, left the atmosphere, entered warp speed, and accelerated to full speed. Everything was exactly the same as before. Alex licked his lips and was about to go to the restaurant to find some Legion juice to refresh himself when he suddenly heard a "beep" sound. The gravity radar

A small dot flashed on it.
