Chapter 714 The Future
Inside the laboratory, old Morgan stood at the window, watching the various tests inside, with no expression on his face.
"How about it?"
The calm question, although not in a serious tone, made the laboratory director's forehead full of sweat.
"Whether it is the magic knowledge that has been revealed so far or the meditation technique, both have positive energy feedback. Currently, one of the students has taken photos of all the books. Even though they are just some elementary introductory books on magic, they all show the correctness of the content."
Hearing this, old Morgan's face remained expressionless.
It has been confirmed that Umbrella has a heritage from another world.
And now this information undoubtedly shows that the other party possesses the inheritance of a magical civilization!
The display of the environment of the Abyss is also correct, which shows that Umbrella also has some understanding of the Abyss.
Magical civilization, Umbrella, the abyss...
"It doesn't matter. The direction I chose is the right one! Umbrella can only slowly figure it out on its own, but I've been serving a legendary lord since the beginning."
There was a hint of fire in old Morgan's eyes.
The most important thing is that this legendary lord's brain is not working well, and I have great autonomy, and I can even change his mind through advice.
Now that he has begun to master the basic knowledge of magic through Umbrella and has the support of the Abyss, he has a feeling that heaven and earth are of one power.
And now Umbrella is in the light and I am in the dark, the offense and defense are reversed!
Whether it is the subsequent asteroid attack, the possible invasion of the abyss, or the connection with the other world.
As long as there is a chance, he can pull Umbrella off the altar and replace it!
…
At the same time, the closed beta players in "Abyss World" began to focus on practicing various skills, the preliminary structure of the mineral company had been built, and various capitals began to shout in advance.
The equipment of major aerospace agencies has also arrived in Penglai via Umbrella freighters.
Woohoo~
The freighter's whistle sounded, and many people on the deck of Penglai City came to the edge, holding the railing and looking down at the freighter below.
The Penglai of today is completely different from the sparsely populated Penglai of the past.
Not only have one million settlement quotas been confirmed, but there are also a constant stream of tourists flying back and forth every day .
With a permanent population of one million and even more mobile tourists, the entire maritime city looks full of vitality and prosperity.
The combination of the breath of life and the original high-tech atmosphere gives a feeling of future life.
Even though such a huge burden was suddenly added, the entire Penglai was still running in an orderly manner with almost no trouble.
Patrol drones and trauma teams can also resolve various accidents.
Humans are social creatures after all, so when the number of people increases and life becomes more lively, the place will be more livable.
"I heard that a spaceship will arrive today, right? Will it be dismantled and transported up there? I really want to see it up close."
"There should be a quota, we just have to draw it."
Two figures leaned against the railing at the edge, looking down at the dock transportation below and said with some emotion.
They obtained settlement rights and were considered neighbors with a good relationship.
In a place like Penglai, there is almost no competition for resources, and everyone at least has enough food and clothing.
In this case, the relationship between each other cannot be bad.
After all, the original choice was carefully selected.
"However, Umbrella's technology has really completely changed people's lives."
The person who spoke raised the mechanical arm and grasped it.
"Actually, I've always wondered why you didn't put on a layer of silicone shell. Now it can be completely simulated, right?"
His companions did not have any special opinions about his mechanical arm, they were just a little curious.
"No, I quite like this color, and it's easy to transform~"
As he finished speaking, the mechanical arm in his hand deformed with a series of clicks and turned into a pair of large pliers, which kept closing and colliding, making metallic clicks.
Unconsciously, Umbrella has now entered every aspect of life in a subtle and silent way.
Not to mention drugs like Ankangding that are used by almost everyone, holograms, prosthetics, robots and the like are already quite popular.
Especially in Penglai, almost all chores are done by robots. Robots with various functions can be seen on the road from time to time, which are much richer than the three basic models sold to the public.
Nowadays, from time to time you can see a person equipped with a prosthetic limb on the street. If those with artificial hearts and artificial kidneys are included, the number would probably exceed one in ten.
Holographic bracelets have become a standard usage habit, and more people use them than to look at their mobile phone screens. In addition, many people are also accustomed to wearing VR brain-computer goggles on their bodies.
Just looking at the streets of Penglai and the people coming and going, it really does feel like a futuristic city.
Just at this moment, accompanied by a rumbling sound, everyone looked up at the sky.
A space elevator is coming down!
As it continued to descend, the speed became slower and slower. Finally, this ten-thousand-square-meter, ten-story-high behemoth was slowly placed on the base, and some white gas was puffed out.
After that, tourists and residents of Penglai received a message notification
"Next, we will transport SX's 'Starship II' spacecraft and launch it. Interested friends can sign up to participate."
In addition to those who have already been there, the vast majority of tourists and residents in Penglai have chosen to sign up.
During this time, special transport vehicles and robots moved all the modules of Starship II to the elevator...
…
"Huh? Did our Starship II launch first? What about Umbrella's own?"
Masra was quite surprised when he got the news.
He was just borrowing other people's things. The spacecraft and even the accompanying nuclear bomb had been dismantled. He had no right to speak or negotiate, so he didn't have any ideas from the beginning.
But now that the Starship II that had obtained SX from Penglai was about to be launched, he was quite surprised.
The nuclear bomb was provided by the Umbrella military, but the detonation module of the warhead was dismantled after passing through Umbrella's hands, and would not be reinstalled until the time of launch.
But even so, it was their own probe that was launched first?
This made Masra a little excited.
If he hadn't been slapped in the face by Umbrella so often, he would have wanted to speak out on social media.
"Yes, but it is possible that it will be launched together with Umbrella's launcher. According to the videos taken by those space tourists, they have already built two launch platforms."
Masla couldn't help but feel emotional at the report from his subordinates.
"The space elevator is really fun for all ages. I want to go up and take a look too."
However, he just sighed and ordered that everything should be prepared. The launch was handed over to Umbrella, but the subsequent docking and control depended entirely on themselves.
"The future is truly about stepping into the starry sky and launching directly into space..."
