Chapter 847 - Popping Out of Nowhere?

Chapter 847: Popping Out of Nowhere?
Hao Ren was capable of making the life of the Zorm people easier. At least he could build more factories and send more autonomous robots though he could not solve the living needs of the entire 1.6 billion people. However, this was not a smart approach.
Civilizations needed to be self-reliant. In particular, Zorm, which had just woke up from the virtual paradise and was about to begin to a long road to recovery, must learn to face challenges in the early days. It was not that their survival was under threat; the factory system on this planet had provided enough initial supplies for the Zorm people. All they needed to do was create further living conditions with their own hands. In this case, Hao Ren did not have to intervene. It was the standard of judgment that an inspector should possess. Appropriate help was necessary but not spoon-feeding. As long as the civilization was not facing the threat of extinction, challenging the difficulties was not something too terrible to do. It was complacency that was more dangerous.
Hao Ren had almost visited every place of the new town as many things had aroused his interest and curiosity.
After waking up, the Zorm people found that the social reconstruction plans they had set before had become useless; their planet had been destroyed, the global communication system and the political order were in a state of disarray. They used to store enough resources in the warehouses for use when they woke up, but now they had to get resources from the surrounding environment. They had also planned to form a temporary governmental council after waking up, but now the council was useless in the face of today’s situation. After a short discussion, they established a new social order temporarily. Each settlement was an autonomous region. They relied on the spiritual channel of the First Born to keep a minimum contact with each other. They prioritized social reconstruction. At least when they had virtually nothing now, there was no danger that the Zorm people would get into power struggles and money disputes. There were signs of solidarity and resource sharing everywhere in this new town. Whether it was the mass-produced standard houses or the hand-built hut, everything was allocated by the city council evenly to everyone who needed it. Everyone required to register for occupations and skills immediately after birth from the blood pool. Regardless of one’s status, everyone was assigned to a job. Food and clothing and other materials were obtainable from the distribution point, so there was no distribution problem. Nevertheless, the management committee had also begun to discuss how to ensure equitable distribution after the town could produce the resources on its own, at least to ensure that it was allocated based on demand. It was a fantastic state of communism where it needed to maintain a fair society at a particular time under certain conditions.
Hao Ren had no idea how long this state could last, but at least it was necessary at this stage.
They did not stay here for too long, because the CARS had finished analyzing the data that Muru provided. The CARS and drone cluster had jointly determined a coordinate from where the signal of the other guardian originated. Now the navigation star chart had been sent to the MDT; Hao Ren could not wait to check out the coordinate now.

We should go now,
Hao Ren said, saying goodbye to Ulyanov.
I’m happy to see you guys doing fine here. I have left an emergency contact channel with Zorm and Muru. I will deal with the problem if there is any.


I hope this channel will never be used,
Ulyanov said frankly. His eyes landed on the holographic projection, which was the image of Nolan.
Are you going too?
he asked.

Of course,
Nolan nodded matter-of-coursely.
Ulyanov rubbed his nose, finally could not hold back his curiosity.
You have already joined Hao Ren’s mission? I remember I was with you in the last dream, so I thought you would also be ‘born’ here too. Where are you now?

He had no idea the true state of Nolan and thought that Nolan had also returned to the real world through the blood pool just like other human beings.
Nolan looked a little embarrassed but quickly eased up. She smiled and waved at Ulyanov.
I changed my job. We will probably meet again in the future until then you will be shocked by seeing the real me.

Ulyanov did not give her words too much thought. He just nodded and left. He still had a lot of things to do: lesson at the Social Adaptation Department, and then follow the ‘masters’ who had been awake for a long time to learn how to use the resources and tools of the world, and then he planned to help the town build a hydraulic machine, or become a construction worker. No one was redundant in this new world.
They were back in the CARS, where Muru, who had arrived earlier, was waiting in the central control hall.
Hao Ren checked with the host of the space station as soon as he arrived.
You got the coordinates? How far is it from here? Did the other side respond?

The space station host replied with a cold machine voice,
The signal source is 12.6 billion light years away, and there is an unknown dimensional phenomenon. The target has no response.

Hao Ren patted the MDT.
Go and prep the spacecraft, we will set off and go to see what is going on.

Muru suddenly said,
I will go with you.

Hao Ren nodded without giving it a thought. Y’zaks quickly said,
You may go but mind your body size. Our spaceship is only a standard version.

As the tallest person among the tenants, Y’zaks was quite conscious of height. He had banged his head on every door frame in the house.
Hao Ren thought for a while, realizing that this was indeed a problem. Though the Petrachelys had a space expansion module and a very spacious interior, the ten-meter tall giant was still too tall for it. Muru could go nowhere except staying in the garage.

I’m fine with it. I can squat,
Muru said.
Hao Ren was speechless.
Since Muru had said so, and Hao Ren had run out of words to persuade him otherwise; he nodded.
If you’re okay, I’m okay. You can stay in the garage. I would fix your spacecraft when I’ve free time so that you could move around easily.

Lily poked Hao Ren’s arm.
You have blown his spaceship into pieces, don’t you remember? What is left is just the cockpit.

Hao Ren thought for a moment and agreed with Lily. It was not like repairing a car where you could change a tire or something, and the car was good to go again. Here, Hao Ren could only get Muru a new spacecraft considering the state of Muru’s spacecraft.

We will talk about it later.
Hao Ren smiled and steered away from the conversation and took everyone onboard the spacecraft.
The Petrachelys left the CARS and flew towards the area from where the signal had come.
The distance of more than 10 billion light years was not a problem for the spaceship; it would only take an hour traveling in hyperspace state. During the voyage, Hao Ren called out the navigation map and compared the information of the destination. He found out that the spacecraft’s flight path was coinciding with the direction of the expansion of the drone cluster.
On the star map, the range of movement of the drones was marked with a striking blue, and his destination was right at the edge of the blue spectrum.

Well.
Hao Ren was curious.
Is this place in the cruising range of the drone? Why didn’t they discover it before?


That’s strange.
The MDT had realized it too.
The drone cluster extended their range up to that position a week ago, but they found nothing as there wasn’t even any celestial body there at that time. Now, a drone has rechecked and confirmed the existence of celestial system there.


It popped out of nowhere?
Hao Ren blinked.
When did it happen?


The drone cluster isn’t monitoring the border twenty-four seven, because the number of drones in the border area is insufficient, so they are patrolling every three days there, waiting until the cluster’s nest produces enough drones to mark the area ‘Normal Patrol Area’ and continue to expand outward,
the MDT explained.
For that reason, the drones didn’t discover in-time a celestial system had suddenly popped up at the border. By the way, in the normal sense of the world, it is impossible for a celestial system just popping out of nowhere.

Hao Ren scratched his jaw thoughtfully.
That means we can’t know when the Solenne Gateway appeared, but at least we know that it appeared out of nowhere in the last three days.
