The first volume sets sail Chapter 21: Preparing to Set Sail

Lin Xu drank the milk tea brought by Miss Qiu and turned on the radio on the low table next to the recliner so that he could hear the voices of the intelligent computers coming through the radio.

"How is the progress of the transformation of the autonomous machinery?" He began to inquire about the progress of the work.

"The first phase of the transformation of the autonomous machinery was completed several years ago, and we are currently focusing on the construction of the curvature engine factory and the anti-gravity factory." Yinghuo, who is responsible for the upgrade and transformation of the autonomous machinery, reported on his work.

"The second phase of the transformation of the autonomous machinery is also underway. We will use the anti-gravity equipment produced by the successfully built anti-gravity factory to add anti-gravity functionality to the autonomous machinery. It's just that because the autonomous machinery is currently undertaking a large amount of construction work, the transformation speed is relatively slow." Zhenxing, who is responsible for the anti-gravity installation of the autonomous machinery, also reported immediately.

"Okay, then what's the progress of the construction of the curvature engine factory?" Lin Xu nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask.

"Sixty percent of the original planned factory construction has been completed, and it is estimated that the entire construction will be completed in another three years." Taiyin, who is in charge of the construction of the curvature engine factory, reported.

"Where's the anti-gravity factory?"

"Seventy percent of the original plan has been completed. It is expected that the entire construction can be completed in two years." Qiming, who is in charge of the construction of the anti-gravity factory, reported.

"How is the installation of the curvature engine on the planetary engine going?" Lin Xu asked again.

"The installation of curvature engines for 10,000 planetary engines has been completed. It is expected that the installation of 100,000 planetary engines will be completed in ten years. By then, the planetary engines will have two power modes, namely plasma propulsion and curvature generator." Chen Xing, who is responsible for the installation and debugging of curvature engines on planetary engines, reported.

"How is the relocation of the factory on Baixing going?" Lin Xu continued to ask.

"The relocation has been basically completed, with only the finishing work left." Bai Xing also reported.

This was the decision Lin Xu made before he went into hibernation, to move all the factories on White Star to Earth.

The reason why humans left such a large factory on White Star was because their long-distance fleets could not take them away.

But Lin Xu, who took the entire earth with him when he went out, could indeed take it away.

So he chose to pack it up and take it away, and this would further increase the production speed of curvature engines and anti-gravity facilities on Earth.

This can save some time on the construction of factories for curvature engines and anti-gravity facilities.

"Okay, let's finish it quickly, and then we'll set sail." Lin Xu nodded and made a decision.

Although the installation of the curvature engines has only been completed for 10,000 planetary engines, it will take another ten years to complete all of them.

But these can all be done on the road.

Just because the Earth is on a journey doesn’t mean that the factories on Earth will stop production.

The factories can continue to produce, so that while the Earth is sailing, the factories on Earth can continue to produce curvature engines for installation.

As more curvature engines are installed, the speed of the Earth will become faster and faster, until all of them are installed in ten years, and the Earth can reach its maximum speed, twice the speed of light.

Ten thousand years ago, when mankind's long-distance fleet left White Star, its speed was able to reach three times the speed of light.

However, Lin Xu was dragging an entire Earth on the road, so his speed naturally could not be compared with that of the long-distance fleet. Twice the speed was already the limit.

Moreover, compared with the previous speed which was only a few thousandths of the speed of light, this is already a leap forward.

After the order was issued, the intelligent quantum computers each completed their tasks, especially the finishing work of the relocation of various factories on the White Star.

As well as the work of transferring the White Star's main body to Earth, it all needs to be completed.

At this time, Lin Xu thought about it and said to Miss Qiu.

"Is the ecological dome on the White Star about to collapse?"

"If we continue to repair and use it, it should be able to last for a while. In fact, losing the ecological dome may not be a bad thing for them. They should learn to leave their homes." Miss Qiu said bluntly.

"Since we are leaving, let's give them a gift." Lin Xu said with a sigh.

Miss Qiu was puzzled.

"Let White Star build a new ecological dome before the final evacuation."

"Do we need to notify the people in the eco-dome to relocate?" Ms. Qiu asked.

"No, the new ecological dome is built a little further away. If they can find it, it will be a gift for them to finally have the courage to leave their homes! If they are really so complacent that they can't even find it, then they will continue to sink." Lin Xu decided.

Karl was expelled, along with five thousand workers who had been instigated by him to go on strike.

They were expelled when this white hell was already entering a severe cold.

The shrine was built to worship the Old Ones. Under Sam's strict supervision, the workers were driven like slaves. Workers kept dying, and new workers were constantly captured from the lower areas to continue building the shrine .

In such a harsh environment, Karl organized the workers to go on strike.

The result was naturally tragic. Not only were a large number of unarmed workers killed directly, but the remaining workers were surrounded by guards, with machine guns mounted on the walls. It was obvious that a massacre was about to take place.

However, because of Carl's existence, Sam was afraid to act rashly.

Sam wanted Carl to die, but Carl couldn't die in his hands.

Carl was also a major contributor to the great uprising back then. A large number of the new elites in the park today were Carl’s colleagues and juniors back then.

Although they have all been corrupted by money and beauty, they will not sit idly by and watch Carl being killed.

You were able to kill Carl today, so are you going to kill us next?

Is the next step to purge the heroes?

This example must never be used.

Sam had to take these people's attitudes into consideration because they were the basis of his rule.

So in the end, Sam simply drove these five thousand people, including Carl, out of paradise and left them to fend for themselves in the white hell.

They even provided them with basic cold-resistant supplies and food.

Even so, these five thousand people will surely die in the white hell.

But he was not killed by Sam himself.

He can also give an explanation to those heroes.

You see, it was Carl who volunteered to go to the white hell with those untouchables, but I didn't want to kill him.

He died, and that was what he deserved.
