Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Finally home."

Li Chu looked at the opened base door with a smile. Everything inside was fine, because Jean would come back every one or two days, spend a few hours checking the situation in the base, and then harvest the crops in the farmland. , or add some nutrient solution to the robot.

It has been four months since they stepped out from the base. In the past four months, the construction plan on the main grassland has been completed. Fortunately, the sun is still shining on this land and has not extinguished.

Now they have probably guessed why the sun has not disappeared. It is not a natural factor, but man-made, because there is a space country in the sky. They must have done something to prevent the entire planet from being enveloped by darkness. shrouded.

"They must be doing some scientific experiments up there, right? Why don't we think of a way to build a spaceship and leave here directly?"

Li Chu said, and Deguna immediately retorted.

"Do you think it can be done under the current conditions? We lack too many high-precision instruments, so we cannot make a rocket. Even if we do, it will fail under such harsh conditions."

Li Chu laughed helplessly. He was just talking. Now they don't have any means of remote observation. They can only guess some facts based on clouds and solar dimensions, including the energy of solar radiation, but basically they are inseparable. Ten.

After entering the base, everyone went directly to the kitchen. They planned to have a drink and then get busy.

A lot of cans were taken out from the warehouse. Everyone started to get some of their favorite foods, and then started cooking in the kitchen.

"Are we too irresponsible?"

Ellie's expression was slightly sad, and Gene patted her shoulder and said.

"What we do now is far more important than managing others."

The eight people have planned to build a civilized city for mankind here. Such a city requires a lot of technological planning, so they must implement some technologies that humans already have, and then develop some practical technologies for the current world. Only in this way can we ensure the survival of mankind.

"Although it is true that once we leave, they will most likely fall into disputes, but there is nothing we can do about it because we have to do this."

As Witte said, everyone looked at him with some surprise, and he smiled helplessly and said.

"I've seen a lot of things and thought a lot these days. I think it's immature to manage humans now, because it's difficult to manage everything, and we don't have that much energy to manage."

After a while, everyone started drinking. Tang Rao happily ate the canned food and she lay comfortably on the chair. This period of time was really too cumbersome for the eight of them.

They need to teach a lot of people step by step, and problems always arise. Many times they can only use force to calm everything down.

This was a great mental torture for the eight people. Now that everything is over, they have helped the humans on the grassland plan their construction for the next ten or even twenty years.

As long as humans can proceed according to their plan, there won't be any big problems in the next ten years, but at this time everyone felt that Jean's expression was a little different.

"You still can't let go?"

Ellie asked and Gene shook his head.

"It's not that I can't let go, but I always feel that maybe it has started."

Gene said as he put down the wine glass in his hand, then took a sip of wine and ate some food before planning to turn back.

"You mean they've started to mess up?"

Jean nodded.

"You can't stop it, or even solve it. Let them fend for themselves. If they like chaos, let them bear it. After all, many people are very selfish in this era, but It’s excusable.”

"I just want to take a look. I won't do anything. Even if a war does break out tonight, I won't do anything. I just want to take a look."

Ellie got up and walked over, but Gene said.

"I can go alone."

Then Gene left the base directly and jumped to the opposite hillside in an instant. He was exuding blue particles and quickly disappeared from sight.

Another reason why Jean and the others want to come back is that their own power has begun to be a little out of control. It seems that the more times they use power, the stronger the power will be. Jean also discovered that these released blue particles, It has higher energy than the light blue particles.

This kind of power can allow Jean to shuttle through the mountains and forests faster. What everyone is most worried about now is that they cannot control the power. The person who is most worried is Deguna. Others are fine. As long as they don't use power, they won't be able to control the power. Let the power go unchecked.

Deguna is different, her body is constantly getting younger, which is good for anyone to rejuvenate, but if it continues, she will most likely become a baby.

This is the conclusion that everyone came to after carefully studying Deguna's cells.

"The future shouldn't be too bad."

Soon Jean had climbed over several mountains, and he could vaguely see the grassland in the distance. He stopped. It had only been 10 minutes at most. Jean stared at the grassland in front of him and took out a cigarette.

In fact, Jean was worried. During the four months on the grassland, Jean saw a lot of things. Not everyone was so greedy and wanted to take everything for themselves. There were still many kind-hearted people who were willing to cooperate with others. People who others share.

Gene is worried about these people. They will not deliberately create conflicts and know how to be humble in many cases. There are still a lot of such people because they feel that it is enough to have food and drink now.

But obviously most people didn't think so. Jean and the others went to Jed's base again before coming back. Jean found that Jed had changed. When talking to them, his eyes were always evasive, and After asking some people for a while, Gene also saw some clues.

If this continues, it will be a matter of time before a war breaks out on that grassland, because there are too many people. In a society with such a number of people, and in such an era, it is impossible for them to synchronize.

"Are we going to watch everything happen?"

Jean once thought that if a war really broke out, he would use force to solve all problems, because many difficult things in the past were solved through war.

War is something that can make people retreat. Now as long as everyone takes a step back and live in peace according to the agreement that Jean and the others planned before, it will be fine, but it is difficult to do so.

Especially the guy named Allen in the fortress, he has been learning chemistry-related knowledge. Gu Yi also praised Allen for being very studious, but behind his studiousness, it was just his plan.

Gene had already heard about the theft that occurred in the mine after they left. After hearing this, he roughly thought of something. Gene then asked Jed, but Jed insisted that it was the foreman's problem. .

Then Gene went to ask the foreman's wife. She cried and hoped that Gene would help him get justice. She also told the foreman's conditions for accepting Allen before he started stealing supplies. But in the end, when something went wrong, Allen cleaned up the matter. It was pushed to the foreman, and the foreman's men did the same.

After hearing this, Gene felt helpless, because he knew very well that no matter how long it took, human beings would still be the same, and it would not change even in the future.

Jean just looked down at the grassland quietly. Now some human cabins have been built in the mountain forest. The area of ​​​​the mountain forest is still disappearing very quickly. Although Jean has said not to cut down anymore, it is obvious that this It has no effect.

Even if force is used to scare the people who cut down the trees, it is only temporary and can only be controlled for a while.

"There is a need for order in this land."

Jean said, showing a smile. He knew very well that if he wanted to stabilize everything, he had to establish order on this grassland. Otherwise, everything would be in vain.

And it is not easy to establish order, because if you cannot integrate them all, there is nothing you can do.

"We can only continue to wait until the gangs have completely completed their separation before we start again."

4pm

The heat of the sun's rays dissipated. Allen stood up and closed his book. He smiled and looked at the people who were already gathering in a small group outside the fortress. Just over a month had passed, and some gang leaders could not sit still. .

Constantly creating friction, many people on my side have been harassed by these gangs. When they go out to work or exchange for something, they are always deliberately made difficult, and the other party always creates some conflicts. Then they got into an excuse to fight.

Three people in the fortress were beaten to death a few days ago. Although the people in the fortress advocated directly dispatching to destroy this small gang, Allen resolved the "conflict" after good communication with the leader of the other party.

Allen knew that he had to endure it at this time. If they really took action, other gangs would have an excuse to attack them legitimately. Now they were still a little worried, that is, they were afraid of being attacked from behind by other gangs.

Many gangs have already set their sights on this fortress, but no one can guarantee that the gangs can work together to capture the fortress. Of course, Allen will not give them any chance at this juncture.

Since early this morning, Allen has strictly ordered his men not to leave the fortress again.

Sure enough, an hour ago, a group of people came and clamored, asking them to send people to assist in the construction. Allen refused them on the grounds that many people were sick and needed to cultivate land.

Allen still knew which groups were probably provoking the dispute, but the time was not ripe now. It was only reasonable to let them take action first and start the counterattack himself.

From time to time, Jed would send all the information over through transactions. This information was all true, because the subordinates assigned by Allen also proved this. This made Allen feel at ease. Jed was indeed a trustworthy partner.

As long as Allen can withstand the attack, Jade will be able to exert force, because once the fight starts, the demand for some drugs will inevitably increase.

The drug construction site is still in the territory controlled by Jed, so when these gangs need drugs, they will definitely go to Jed and the others to get it. Jed only needs to move his hands a little to make this group of people who have made up their minds The guys were red-eyed, and Jade and the others could only defend passively.

At that time, it will not be these guys who have the final say. Allen has discussed it with Jade in detail. They must legitimately seize control of this area in order to stabilize it.

For those gangs that caused the war, the local people will definitely not support them. Instead, the two groups Jed and Allen who solved the dispute can get the support of the locals. If they continue to implement this step by step, they Only then can a complete set of order be established in this area.

Some of the current disputes were created by Allen. Although the methods were a little inferior, they were very useful.

Allen has equipped 300 people with crossbows, as well as blades for melee combat and medium and short-range spears, and nearly 50 people have been equipped with firearms.

The current reinforcement progress of the fortress is very slow. Although it has learned the technology of making some cement, if it is to be made successfully, the conditions do not allow it and the only way is to keep trying.

The front fortress wall is being strengthened every day to prevent the enemy from setting fire. As long as we can get through, everything will be fine, and they only fight those gangs to protect themselves.

Other gangs on the periphery would not attack rashly, they had already planned it. At this time, dozens of people gathered at the gate, and one of them shouted with a microphone.

"What on earth do you mean? It has been agreed that everyone will take turns to work, but now your people have not been working for many days, but your work has been lost to us."

Allen stood up, leaned out and looked at the people below, and immediately the leader with the microphone asked again.

"Mr. Allen, you have to give a reasonable explanation."

Allen said calmly.

"Of course we can't go out. Three people in my fortress were killed a few days ago, and there are always problems coming to our people these days. I believe this is not for no reason, right?"

The people below started shouting again. Allen didn't plan to take care of them. The leader kept talking. He saw that the people in the fortress had picked up their weapons and looked like they wanted to rush out. Allen immediately went down to stop a bunch of people.

"Uncle, this."

"I told you Nick, no one is allowed to do anything without my permission. I will go out and have a good talk with them first."

Allen led several of his men out of the fortress with guns on their backs. As soon as they left, the leader approached with his men.

"What do you mean Alan?"

Allen looked at this small gang of only seventy or eighty people. Now that they dared to shout at their own door, he could be sure that several big gangs behind them were very anxious.
