Chapter 479: This is What Life Should Be Like_1

Arriving in Eden, Logic felt as though he had entered another space-time.

Here, he spent the best three years of his life, and after that, it was all intimidation, intimidation!

During all those years at the intimidation center, holding the cold switch of the Gravitational Wave Emitter in his hand, he reminisced more than once about those wonderful times.

But he had to immediately pull his thoughts back. Yes, Sophon was around, Trisolarans must be watching him every moment.

He could not let his guard down for a second!

And so, half a century passed by, and when he saw the person who was to replace him, he knew, humanity was beyond salvation.

Fortunately, there was still another Wallfacer!

While the Trisolarans focused all their attention on him, another Wallfacer led humanity to a tremendous leap forward!

When the Solar System State won the second battle, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. The gap between humans and the Trisolarans was no longer heaven and earth.

If there had been thirty more years of preparation, perhaps there would not have been so many sacrifices!

But history doesn't trade in "ifs"!

Then, Logic thought back to the past century and subsequently, he shook his head with a smile.

The reason he didn't enjoy the good days in the Solar System State, and instead went to the Solar System Federation, was because he still had some distrust towards Jiang Yu.

He was afraid Jiang Yu would not follow the duty of Wallfacer, taking only the people from the Solar System State and abandoning the people from the Solar System Federation.

Given Jiang Yu's demonstrated ruthlessness and decisiveness, such a scenario was not impossible.

It wasn't that he sympathized with the people of the Solar System Federation, but if the Solar System State were to turn a blind eye to the life and death choices of billions of fellow beings, the Solar System State itself would have degenerated.

Logic hoped that the Solar System State could retain the most basic aura of humanity, so that humanity could go further.

He believed Jiang Yu shared his sentiment, which is why he designed the "Ark Plan."

"I can finally rest." Logic, sitting on a lakeside bench, looked at the beautiful scene before him and let out a heartfelt exclamation.

He never felt guilty for not trusting Jiang Yu because he knew Jiang Yu was aware of his thoughts.

At the same time, he also knew that Jiang Yu understood the essence of a Wallfacer, and even if Jiang Yu knew his thoughts, he wouldn't blame him.

Because he was working.

Zhuang Yue said from beside him, "This Eden spans over a hundred square kilometers, with the northwest still under construction, but sound barriers have been set up, so you won't be disturbed by the noise from the construction site.

"Even with its current size, you could walk for three days and not reach the end.

"Now, all of this belongs to you."

Logic sighed, "I originally thought a few square kilometers would be enough, just a token area. This much space is too costly for the people."

"Quite the opposite," Zhuang Yue replied. "Earth is currently striving to create job opportunities for its people; it's only through constant work that they can avoid idleness.

"This construction project has eased the Governing Council's burden for several years, and future maintenance will create tens of thousands of jobs.

"Besides, Wallfacer Jiang Yu has already ordered this area to be built to a hundred square kilometer specification."

Logic still shook his head, "Building it just for me, it's really too wasteful.

"What use will all this have after I die?"

"Who said it was for you alone?" Zhuang Yue laughed. "In the future, this place will certainly become a popular tourist attraction, with beautiful landscapes and being the former residence of a celebrity.

"You don't need to worry about this, the Governing Council has already made plans for you."

Only then did Logic reply with a smile, "Then good!"

He stretched and yawned, "With such a beautiful view, how can we not have a barbecue?

"Also, invite your friend Alger over, let's all have dinner together,"

Alger was Zhuang Yue's boyfriend.

Zhuang Yue agreed with a smile, "He has been wanting to visit you for a long time." She then went off happily to call him.

Logic and Zhuang Yan, the old couple, busied themselves preparing the barbecue just like in the early days of the Crisis Era.

By the lakeside, there were a few small wooden huts with fully equipped furnishings, including barbecue grills in the storage room.

Just as Logic was about to move one, a robot had already helped him carry it out.

Logic shook his head, "What's the fun if you 'tin heads' do everything?"

The robot replied, "You can light the fire and grill by yourself to enjoy the experience just the same."

Logic was slightly taken aback; he had been in the Solar System Federation for so long that even after more than a month in the Solar System State, he still wasn't used to the sight of robots engaging in fluent conversation.

When everything was ready and Logic was about to light the fire, he remembered they didn't have any ingredients yet.

Logic was just about to contact Zhuang Yue to bring some back.

But Zhuang Yan laughed, "No need to go through all that trouble."

Then she instructed the robot, "Place an order for me. Get some beef, lamb, a bit of pork belly, chicken wings, and some fish and vegetables suitable for grilling."

A few minutes later, a drone delivered everything Zhuang Yan had ordered.

Logic scratched his head with a smile, feeling somewhat unaccustomed to such thoughtful service.

When the beef was almost done, Zhuang Yue arrived with Alger on an airship.

Alger was a mixed-race individual with black hair, light blue eyes, and a very tall stature.

Since the countries and political forces on Earth no longer existed, there were now many mixed-race individuals.

And because over the past two centuries people from The East had been the main ethnic group in the Solar System State, the appearance of mixed-race individuals has increasingly leaned towards Eastern features.

They hardly had any strong regional characteristics anymore, with only their face shape, hair, and eye color distinguishing them as mixed-race.

It was evident that Alger was very nervous, his smile not quite natural.

After all, it can be nerve-wracking to think that your father-in-law is a Wallfacer, someone who once held the fate of two worlds in his hands.

Logic took some perverse pleasure in watching Alger's anxious expression, "This is what life should be like."

...

Galaxy Era Year 5, June, New Continent Star System.

The survey team studying a nearby gravitational source in the star system was holding their final meeting.

Jiang Yu also attended the meeting and gave the opening speech, "This abnormal gravitational source could be either a minor or a major issue.

"I have reviewed the reports from your previous meetings, and as you've stated, there are two possibilities: it is either an unknown phenomenon or the product of an intelligent civilization.

"If it's the former, it's a minor matter, and we just need to observe carefully.

"If it's the latter, then it's a serious matter, and we must handle it with caution.

"The New Continent Star System and the surrounding star systems will be the main region of humanity's activity in the primary world in the future. We cannot ignore this unknown entity; we have to understand it clearly and prepare accordingly!"

The meeting officially began, and everyone discussed how to handle the two scenarios Jiang Yu mentioned. Then they determined the time for departure.

On the departure day, Jiang Yu personally saw them off.

Jiang Yu's presence boosted the morale of the expedition team members, who shouted to him, "Salute to the Wallfacer!" "We guarantee to complete the mission!"

After the fleet left the dock, Jiang Yu turned to Number Three beside him and said, "I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about this survey mission."
