Gondor told the next plan: "Fortunately, this journey to visit the peak civilization itself will take a long time. Therefore, our soldiers and workers all bring their families, and with the family as a unit, the operation of the entire society It is relatively complete, equivalent to a civilization with a smaller population."
"If they are allowed to have children and establish a good education system for several generations, it will not be a big problem for the next generation to leave the abyss alive."
"We must ensure a scale of more than ten thousand people and create a good social atmosphere in order to resist the mental invasion of the 'lost people'. If the population is too small, we will collectively go crazy."
"It can still be like this..." Zhang Ming really didn't know what to say. These guys are indeed an old civilization and have rich experience in going out!
After a long voyage, I had to drag my family with me, and I even started planning for kindergarten... This is the rhythm of a protracted war!
In the blink of an eye, it seemed like a good idea to have some fun with some kids?
Lao Zhang is an old guy who is over forty and almost fifty. As he gets older, he likes children more and more. He feels that fresh and cute babies are very energetic and promising!
However, Hong Gangren's cubs, regardless of gender, are born with beards, and their small bodies have the appearance of a middle-aged man.
Thinking about it this way, it feels a little weird again.
"A child born in this ghost place...will there be no sequelae?"
Gondor said with some annoyance: "Children are just born, have no wisdom, and will not be affected by the 'lost people'. But as they grow older, until adulthood, before the worldview matures, it is a more dangerous period. .”
"According to our clan's past research, even if children who grow up in the Sea of Demon Gods are carefully cared for, the probability of developing serious mental illness is about 12%. In the abyss, the probability of problems may be higher."
"So we haven't made up our mind yet whether to cultivate the next generation."
"Well, you should decide this matter yourself. I can't give you any advice."
Zhang Ming sighed: "In other words, if we don't have children, in another hundred years, the population will die naturally and the population size will not be maintained. By then, the influence of the 'homeless people' will become greater and greater, and we will all have to do it because of He died of madness."
"Yes, a small society of 10,000 people with a clear division of labor can just offset the impact of the 'displaced people'. Within a hundred years, about 3,000 people will die of natural causes, and some professions will have no labor force to engage in."
Facing the difficult future, Gondor has been quite troubled: "In our team, the life span of the strong ones is naturally higher. According to current statistics, if they practice hard, at least 5,000 people can support a life span of three hundred years. If they persist, On the day when the abyss opens...the prerequisite is not to go crazy."
From this perspective, Honggang Civilization is indeed quite powerful.
Among the people on earth, there are not even a hundred strong people who can live for three hundred years!
As a result, there are 5,000 strong men on one ship here!
The difference in background level is really exaggerated.
Zhang Ming swallowed and cursed in his mind, "Human beings are rotten fish and shrimps." "Tell me about another plan. You don't want to stay in this hellish place for three hundred years, do you?"
Gondor immediately said: "The second plan is of course to take the initiative to find an exit!"
"Since the abyss actively discharges impurities, it must have a hidden exit, just like the excretion exit of the digestive organs..."
Gondor paused and coughed twice: "It's just that the exit has not been opened for a while."
"If we can find that place, we might be able to force it open with the help of the power of the Mountain Destroyer Cannon or some other means."
Zhang Ming smiled bitterly and said: "But in such a huge abyss, how can I find the hidden exit by myself? Your unmanned detectors don't seem to be very effective... Can we only rely on human power to search?"
"What's more, there may be some other reason for the formation of the abyss. If something is blown up with a Jishan cannon, the situation may be even worse."
Zhang Ming thought of the eyeball seal of [Ten Thousand Eyes]!
If he messes around here and releases something terrible, the entire world community will be devastated, and the human civilization he cares about will naturally be wiped out.
"Oh, yes...the formation of the abyss is a mystery. We are asking the base camp to search for more information for us."
For so many days, so many smart minds in Honggang Civilization were not idle. They launched several high-altitude detectors in succession, and they also had a preliminary understanding of the size of the abyss.
It's about...the size of the Pacific Ocean!
Looking for a needle in a haystack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and finding the exit is simply a fantasy!
"Mr. Zhang, listen to me first." Another expert's voice was inserted into the channel, "Now we have two opinions. The first is that the exit is hidden at the bottom of the abyss. If this is the case, it is indeed difficult to find , because there is a large amount of abyssal pollution that blocks the exit, so looking for the exit is really like finding a needle in a haystack.”
"But there is a second point of view, the exit is right at the edge of the abyss."
"We can imagine the abyss as a special world, but this world is special. Not only does it not breed life, it destroys life. So as long as we find a way to reach the edge, maybe we can get out..."
"Of course, this edge may not be easy to find. After all, the abyss is not a world in the normal sense, and it is impossible for us to simply escape."
Zhang Ming looked at the dark green ocean. The thick fog like ink blocked almost all sight. Once this big ship started its engine and made noise, it would definitely attract the attention of a large number of monsters.
The abilities of the regular monsters are too weird, and if there are too many of them, he can't bear the constant attacks.
The thought of the protracted war ahead is unsettling.
"So we can only bet that the second view is correct? If it is the first view, it can only last for 300 years?"
Gondor gritted his teeth and revealed one of his trump cards: "If we find the exit, we will open the source of the world, and then start the engine of the ship... But we don't have much source of the world in our hands. To be precise, We only have 33 days, so we can’t afford too much waste!”
In 33 days, with the engine at full power, it can sail more than 40,000 kilometers, which is enough to travel across the world.
But the fault tolerance rate is indeed not high. If you take a long detour, the source of this world will be exhausted.
Of course, Zhang Ming also has a lot of world sources at hand, but he protects these Honggang people within his own ability, which does not mean that he is willing to use all his cards.
"Is there any other way?"
"We are manufacturing more small detectors to explore nearby space conditions. The current productivity is about 100 per month. The current spare parts in reserve can produce about 50,000 small detectors. Perhaps we can slowly Exploring the spatial structure of the abyss.”
"Okay, don't worry, take your time."
Zhang Ming patrolled the deck and found nothing special. He killed a few monsters and dragged them back for cooking.
He was actually a little irritated. Now that human civilization has solved some development problems, it has established diplomatic relations with different civilizations, and is beginning to flourish.
As a result, he himself was trapped in the damn abyss...
Feeling sad, Zhang Ming suddenly got nervous and shouted: "When I get out, won't humans have unified the sea of demons and start conquering the universe?!"
"Conquer the universe?!" Shimama on her butt was shocked and repeated the sentence.
Zhang Ming explained: "Think about it, after three hundred years, the first industrial revolution is less than 300 years ago... won't there be Star Destroyers in 300 years?"
"When the descendants of humans see me crawling out of the abyss, they will be greatly shocked."
"One of the beautiful girls with big breasts in a beige sweater pointed at me and exclaimed: This... this is actually the ancestor, the one in the textbook?! He jumped out of the corner!! He is not dead!! "
"He's not dead!!" Shimama repeated the sentence, trembling crazily and eager to hear the rest of the story.
It had not been so looking forward to it for a long time, and roared in an old voice: "What happened next?"
"I fucking made this up, it's not a true story." Zhang Ming laughed angrily at it.
Shimama roared crazily: "Then keep making it up!"
I, Lord Shimama, am very anxious!
Lao Zhang began to think wildly and fabricate stories: "Three hundred years later, I will be white-haired, full of beard, bare shoulders, holding an ice spear to the sky, and yelling: God fuck me, I will come from the abyss. Escaped!"
"All of a sudden, a Star Destroyer landed in the sky and the light shone in my face."
"A group of humans wearing nanosuits pointed at me and were very excited. Blessed by the Jade Emperor, these are the ancestors from three hundred years ago...the ancestors crawled out of the abyss. They look like devils!"
"I was completely crazy at that time, with red eyes, and I yelled that my fate was up to me!"
"One of the soldiers took out a freezing gun, froze me, and sent me to the laboratory for dissection... This is how a new legendary life began. I have given it a new name, "Escape from the Laboratory Begins." .”
"Send to the laboratory for dissection!" Shimama read frantically, wanting to continue listening to Lao Zhang's fabricated future story.
But obviously, three hundred words a day is the physiological limit of a normal online writer, and Lao Zhang can no longer edit.
As an optimist, occasionally committing mental illness can effectively relieve psychological stress.
Thinking of that weird future scene, Zhang Ming couldn't help but burst out laughing "hahaha".
This inexplicable laughter reached the ears of several nearby Hong Kong soldiers through the earphones. They were so frightened that their whole bodies trembled and they held their breaths. Your Excellency the Extraordinary One went crazy again!
