Chapter 1381: High-Frequency Electromagnetic Radiation Beam

When Chen Ming’s shuttle boat arrived at the outer side of the Wormhole Space Station.

The situation of Gaia Planet having planetary consciousness had already been publicly announced by him.

Although the Empire had never discovered a similar existence, this wasn’t considered to be too secretive or important to be unannounced news.

Chen Ming’s proactive disclosure, on the contrary, played a good role in promoting research in this area.

After all, Chen Ming was genuinely curious about how such planetary consciousness came into being.

Therefore, whether it was the closest Legion to Chen Ming or the distant Fan Chao Research Institute, even some other organizations basically sent Psychics to confirm the situation Chen Ming described.

After reviewing the background of each Psychic, Chen Ming basically allowed them to proceed, as long as they conducted their research under his supervision.

The results were, of course, obvious.

The value of the planetary consciousness and the special attributes of Gaia Planet itself exceeded the value of any planet the Empire had previously discovered.

Hence, some Psychics stayed with Chen Ming and left some accompanying personnel.

They planned to stay for long-term research.

These people always needed accommodations, and they couldn’t just keep staying in spaceship dormitories.

Moreover, the climate transformation on Gaia Planet hadn’t been completely finished yet.

The surface wasn’t suitable for constructing too many buildings; at most, only some necessary structures for landing investigations or research could be established on the planet.

Therefore, whether it was outsiders or the Climate Transformation Department and some other staff busying themselves here at Gaia Star.

The vast majority needed to temporarily reside on the other end of the wormhole, opposite the Gaia Star System, within the city division affiliated with the Primordial Star System’s No. 1 Research Center.

Although the practical distance wasn’t too far, merely a matter of boarding a track, crossing a wormhole, and then getting off a track, this daily routine of entering and exiting the planetary atmosphere was somewhat cumbersome.

So someone proposed to Chen Ming an expansion of the Wormhole Space Station, transforming it into a model that could temporarily accommodate people.

Chen Ming wasn’t an unreasonable person.

Coincidentally, this Wormhole Space Station had been operational for some time, and its stability was basically not an issue, so he agreed to this request.

He did some isolation work on the framework of the wormhole and the space station, transforming both the Primordial Star System’s Wormhole Space Station and the Gaia Star System’s Wormhole Space Station, expanding a large additional area.

Chen Ming made some changes, allowing habitation, and granted those qualified to live there certain permissions for modifications within a limited range, equipped with some robots.

Allowing them to make changes freely as long as it didn’t affect the framework, functionality, and safety of the space station itself.

As a result, in just over a month, the Wormhole Space Station turned into what it is now.

Not only the Primordial Star System’s Wormhole Space Station, but the Wormhole Space Station at the other end of the Gaia Star System was the same.

One could only say this was quite nice too.

He had seen enough of those cold, icy space stations; environments like this suited his perception better.

This also gave Chen Ming some ideas for future planning of Gaia Planet.

He wanted the Gaia Planet behind the wormhole to become a comprehensive planet, becoming the de facto capital of his star realm.

Gaia Planet’s ability to regulate ecological climate could influence from macro to micro levels, covering almost every corner.

It could almost be said to be the most suitable planet for the survival of humans and all living things.

As a Psychic, Chen Ming, even using a body manufactured later, could feel the positive influence Gaia Planet had on him both physiologically and consciously.

For ordinary people, even if their perceptions were not as acute, they could still enjoy a feeling on this planet that was never experienced on other planets.

So Chen Ming was considering making the planet’s function more independent, allowing each planet to specialize more in its functions.

Simply put, turning the Gaia Star that hosts the No. 1 Research Center into a purely research-oriented planet.

Treating the Gaia Planet, which is still undergoing climate recovery, as a planet to help support the population of its neighboring counterparts.

Although the population of the research center is currently not even enough to fill a street, if future directions are well planned, it would undoubtedly be beneficial.

With a wormhole within the star system, the Gaia Star System and Primordial Star System could be viewed as the same star system.

The conveniences this brings can be fully utilized.

Cultivating technical talent isn’t restricted to just nurturing researchers already in place.

Though this process takes quite long, it isn’t something visible in the short term.

But that’s how Chen Ming thought, and that’s what he intended to do.

The reason still stems from his long-standing thoughts.

He needed a colony, or rather a cluster of colonies, a star realm, that could continue to exist even after his departure.

And not an organization that would collapse immediately after his departure.

This is what he wanted.

Chen Ming didn’t stay long on the space station.

Though his identity might be unknown to many who disregard current affairs in the entire Empire, it was hardly possible that no one recognized him on his territory.

So he took a couple of laps around the space station before leaving.

He turned around and boarded the shuttle boat he arrived in, following the space station’s port inward, entering the wormhole.
