Chapter 196: Wallbreaker Reappears_1

Jiang Yu also watched the broadcast of the nuclear test on TV. Before the broadcast, he had Number Three arrange his itinerary, and immediately after the broadcast ended, he flew across the ocean to attend the upcoming Wallfacer plan hearing.

If he had the opportunity, he hoped he could say a few words for Rediaz, and it would be best if he could save him.

After the broadcast, Jiang Yu put on his coat and was about to leave when a security officer came in to report, "Mr. Jiang, a stranger is here to see you, saying he has solved the puzzle you posed."

Jiang Yu was startled, "Could it be another person coming to offer their head?"

He unbuttoned his coat, "Let him in."

Jiang Yu hung up his coat again and asked Number Three to prepare a pot of good tea.

The visitor was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a Western face, sporting a mustache, wearing a well-tailored suit and a formal hat.

Upon entering, the visitor took off his hat, "Mr. Jiang, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Number Three had already recognized the guest, "Is it Sir Philip?"

The visitor smiled, "Indeed."

Jiang Yu was puzzled, "What brand is the razor I use again?"

Number Three introduced, "This is an Italian archaeologist who has made significant achievements in the study of Stonehenge and related relics and was knighted by the Queen of the United Kingdom."

Jiang Yu nodded, "Mr. Philip, what brings you here?"

Philip smiled, "Wallfacer Jiang Yu, I am your Wallbreaker."

"Let me guess," Jiang Yu said, "After Baluo failed as a Wallbreaker, you took his place to come here and offer your head from afar?"

Philip shook his head with a smile, "I'm not as arrogant as Baluo. To break your wall, I have studied Chinese culture and know what 'offering one's head' means."

"What I want to tell you is, please don't underestimate me as you did Baluo!"

Jiang Yu made a gesture inviting Philip to sit, "Then do you know why my teacher isn't here to break my wall now?"

As if he were visiting a friend's home, Philip settled comfortably into a seat, "He's too cautious, overly cautious!"

Jiang Yu shook his head, "It's not his caution, it's that my Wallfacer plan has only just begun, and I hardly believe there's anyone who could break my wall."

"Of course, your spirit is still commendable. If the ETO's higher-ups were all my Wallbreakers, that would be ideal. Then I wouldn't have to go around the world capturing people."

Sir Philip's expression grew slightly uneasy, "Wallfacer Jiang Yu, you're bluffing!"

Jiang Yu gestured for him to speak, "Please speak your mind, I still have a plane to catch!"

Philip said, "Wallfacer Jiang Yu, your stratagem is extremely clever, cleverer than the other three Wallfacers!"

"I must admit that your plan was concealed deeply. Initially, when you obtained the method for the fundamental exchange between animal and plant cells, I thought that was the technology you wanted!"

"Because this technology is revolutionary. If used defensively, you could deploy enough agents on Earth to threaten the invaders; if they continue to encroach on the Solar System, you could detonate these agents."

"Making Earth a hell for any animal; not only would Earth's animals turn into plants, but any animal cells that enter Earth would transform into plant cells,"

"Turning Earth into a paradise for plants and a graveyard for animals."

"If used offensively, it could be launched toward the Three-Body Star System, and with some luck, the bodies of the Trisolarans might also be structured like animal cells, and this fundamental exchange could theoretically threaten them."

Jiang Yu interrupted Philip, who was speaking effusively, "You're comfortable with the tea?"

Philip replied with gentlemanly grace, "Thank you for your hospitality."

Jiang Yu smiled, "The plan you mentioned has too many flaws. What kind of launcher would I need to surpass the speed of the Trisolaran Interstellar Fleet and send the agents to the Three-Body Star System?"

"And with Trisolarans already having a Space City, wouldn't they have some sort of anti-missile system? Launching it from so far away, it would be destroyed before even entering the star system, making all my efforts futile, wouldn't it?"

Sir Philip took a sip of his tea, "This is exactly what I wanted to address. At the time, I thought your 'Moon City' project was an attempt to find a way for interstellar travel."

"If development continues, perhaps these agents could be used directly in space, creating a barrier similar to interstellar dust."

"At that point, I really wanted to tell you to stop dreaming."

Jiang Yu asked again, "Are you sure that the structure of Trisolaran somatic cells is similar to that of animal cells? And that cellular basement replacement drugs really work on them?"

Philip said earnestly, "The Lord's somatic cells..."

Suddenly it dawned on him, damn it, who was the Wallbreaker anyway?

Philip frowned and said, "In any case, this plan is completely unfeasible!"

Jiang Yu laughed and said, "Not necessarily, how can you know it won't work if you don't give it a try?"

Philip also thought of it, realizing that Jiang Yu's words were teasing him, "This is a smokescreen you threw at us! But your real plan is indeed closely related to basement replacement technology!

"You actually knew long ago that by using some substances found in Moon dust particles, you could develop drugs for cellular basement replacement..."

Jiang Yu asked, "Are you sure the key to the drug is the material in the Moon dust particles?"

"Of course I'm sure!"

"Why are you so certain?"

Seeing Jiang Yu so anxious, Philip thought he had caught Jiang Yu's sore spot, "I've verified it with the Lord. On the Moon and other planets with very thin atmospheres, there exists a special kind of tiny substance.

"It's a particle on the same level as bosons and neutrinos, brought to the Moon by light particles from inside the star and left there.

"Humanity hadn't discovered it before because the atmosphere blocks part of the sun's light, preventing these particles from appearing on Earth.

"Your plan is really flawless! In fact, implementing the 'Moon City Plan' is just to bring back a large amount of lunar soil!

"And the whole 'Green Pastures Plan' is actually a cover for the third group!

"It's all to obtain the cellular replacement drugs for animals and plants as soon as possible!"

"Hold on!" Jiang Yu reconfirmed, "The things you just discussed about tiny substances, you verified them with the Trisolarans?"

Philip furrowed his brow, "Don't try to squirm your way out of this. Although there's guesswork on my part, it's all based on the information given to me by the Lord!

"Even if there's a difference from the truth, it should be very small!"

Jiang Yu nodded, "Right, right, not significant at all, keep going!

"Number Three! Is there a recording of our conversation?"

Number Three was taken aback, "No, there isn't!"

Jiang Yu slammed the table, "Careless! How can such an important conversation not be recorded?"

Number Three quickly turned on a cellphone, and Jiang Yu added, "It's so disrespectful! There's a portable camera in that drawer there! Record with the camera!"

Philip was somewhat at a loss with Jiang Yu's actions.

What, record it to savor it in detail later?

Is he sick?

Jiang Yu quickly said to Philip, "Please continue, continue!"

Philip cleared his throat, "With this kind of drug, you'd be able to proceed to the next step of your plan!

"It was you who reminded Bo Xiangdong to use Gu Zhize's research for his experiments, and ultimately he obtained the Orange Leaf Assassin, a combination of animal and plant cells, yet with a certain consciousness.

"By then, your plan was clear, hoping to transfer human consciousness into lifeforms as resilient as the Orange Leaf Assassin.

"Once the Lord arrives on Earth, the whole world will be filled with Orange Leaf Assassins possessing human intelligence and consciousness!

"Just thinking about it is a headache, and most crucially, humanity will be able to continue in a plant-like form!"

Philip said confidently, "The results of Bo Xiangdong's experiments were all within your expectations. You transferred him to the Moon because you feared that his next experiments wouldn't be accepted by humanity!

"By having everyone in Guanghan City prepare for sacrifice, you were planning to have everyone contribute their consciousness!"

Jiang Yu frowned and said, "I've never done research on consciousness transfer or grafting. And how can you be so sure that the results of Bo Xiangdong and Gu Zhize's experiments were within my expectations?"

Philip smiled and said, "Of course they were within your expectations! Because you are 'Black Cuboid People'!"
