Chapter 115

There has never been such unity before, everyone's platform, network, and media are all reporting on the same thing.

Just as Li Hao said, there is no hope of saving the Blue Star. Although the plan Li Hao proposed has many related things, it will take a lot of time.

Just like Li Hao said, when the plan to save Blue Star is no longer feasible, escaping Blue Star requires all Blue Star people to take action.

Moreover, Li Hao and his team had already wasted two months searching for a way to save Blue Star. Although they had arranged many things during this period, a true escape plan would require more than just this part.

First, we need to allow enough time for resettlement. And to leave, we need to gather all the resources of Blue Star together.

They don't even have the means to build special devices to push the blue planet out of the solar system like in some movies.

First, they had to migrate to a stable location. The rupture of Blue Planet was inevitable. If it weren't for the birth of Blue Planet consciousness, Blue Planet might have been destroyed more than a decade ago.

Li Hao's plan was insane. She had designed a massive device, akin to a Dyson sphere. It would require all of the resources on the Blue Planet to construct this massive, mobile fortress. No one knew what they would encounter beyond the solar system.

However, the spaceship Li Hao brought back could be used as a pioneer to find a more suitable location to rebuild a second blue planet.

To move everyone away safely and completely, the migration alone would take a very long time.

Li Hao provided the framework of the plan, but the specific implementation was handed over to the think tank, who were responsible for perfecting the details.

Compared to the ordinary people who were kept in the dark, those with decision-making power had already known the news for two months. They went from initial disbelief to seeking a way out. Finally, they had to accept that they had to flee.

They investigated various sources and confirmed that Li Hao was right. They also determined that there was no other solution. If it weren't for Li Hao's firm insistence on their acceptance of the evacuation plan, they might have wasted precious time discussing it.

This wasn't a simple matter. Sometimes, a school organizing a spring outing for students would have to plan two or three months in advance. Furthermore, the mobilization process was meticulous, requiring meticulous preparations. By 2042, the entire Blue Planet had a population of 8.7 billion, and now they were relocating nearly 10 billion people.

They are now ready to go public.

Gu Zhaozhao had planned to play games that evening, but for some reason, all the games were paused. Even the video platform where he wanted to catch up on a TV series had stopped playing. All entertainment activities were temporarily suspended for the day.

The news reports say that a global press conference will be held in the evening with important information, and the news will be announced by nearly a hundred countries.

Fortunately, some social media forums hadn't stopped. People were scrolling through Weibo, reading the speculation. But everyone was a little nervous, fearing it might be bad news. Their school hadn't received any notification, but the principal still felt something was amiss. So, their evening classes were canceled.

Gu Zhaozhao returned to the dormitory and found that his roommates had also returned. Everyone looked very solemn.

"What big thing did you say happen?" Gu Zhaozhao spoke first.

"Maybe Master Li has made some new discoveries." The roommate tried his best to guess the news in a positive direction.

"Why are other countries also..." Another roommate offered a different opinion. Yeah, if Li Hao really did bring back something good, why would other countries be so nervous? If it was good news, they wouldn't have to stop entertainment. Even when Li Hao's identity as a time traveler was publicly announced, it was only on the news broadcast.

Could there be any news more shocking than this? They couldn't think of it, and they didn't dare to think about it.

"The agreed time is 6 o'clock. We can watch it now." Another roommate turned on the computer. All the channels now had special scenery or music with a plain background. There was a countdown, and now there were only ten minutes left. We would soon know what the announcement was.

Gu Zhaozhao browsed the campus forum, reading the various speculations raised by everyone. He couldn't help but feel nervous. In fact, everyone's comments showed that everyone was nervous.

When the global news live broadcast was finally about to begin, the four girls simply sat in front of a computer and watched.

The news broadcast took place in China's Great Hall, but it wasn't just Chinese leaders present; leaders from other countries, over a hundred in total, were also present. This was a scene never before seen.

The person who spoke was someone no one expected, it was Li Hao. It can be said that compared with these leaders, Li Hao's face is the most recognizable among all people now.

However, they all knew Li Shen's personality and rarely took the initiative to participate in such public occasions. What kind of things needed Li Hao to talk about?

"This time, we are all sitting together because this matter concerns the entire Blue Planet. It concerns all of humanity..."

This is a news that everyone is watching, including families sitting at home eating, singles watching with their computers, people from China, the United States, and even astronauts far away in space. It's at different times, in some places it's still early in the morning, and some people are still asleep.

Some people are still working, and they don't forget to secretly read the news while working.

It was like Chen Qiang was using a small window to play the news. Their company often worked overtime, and generally speaking, no one left until 7 o'clock. So most people in the company were still at their workstations.

But when he heard the words, "Blue Planet is about to end," he stopped typing and focused all his attention on the news.

They are entering an emergency. The blue planet is about to be destroyed, and they need to escape the solar system.

Chen Qiang's mind went blank. His first thought was what would happen to his mortgage? He'd just bought a small two-bedroom apartment, and now the world was about to end. What was he going to do? What about their jobs? What would become of them?

Li Hao didn't simply explain the situation, but instead described the reasons for the destruction of Blue Planet. He then proposed the solution that had already been discussed, and urged everyone to actively cooperate. Each person had their own arrangements. This time, the operation would still be carried out on a country-by-country basis, with each country responsible for evacuating the population and carrying out construction. The construction of the escape spacecraft would be led by the Chinese base.

The press conference lasted a full hour. Li Hao announced the devastating news to everyone. Then, spokespersons from various countries spoke to reassure their respective citizens.

Construction is primarily being led by over thirty developed countries, as key industries, science, and business are concentrated within them. Other countries will simply need to settle their own people, prepare for the space launch, and manage their own affairs. However, this won't be an easy task.

Chen Qiang couldn't listen any longer. He turned around and saw his colleagues, who also looked bewildered. The entire office was utterly silent. It seemed everyone was focused on the news. No one was paying attention to their work anymore.

Because this is the end of the world. Originally, they were still thinking about what to eat tomorrow and the troubles at work, but suddenly they were told that the blue planet was about to be destroyed.

Many people knew that Li Hao had once visited a world destroyed by the Zerg, where the people lived in dire straits. He had never imagined that one day his world would also suffer the same disaster, even more painful than the apocalypse.

If it were just the Zerg they would have probably taken care of it long ago.

Even though China has developed tremendously, it hasn't yet reached the point of colonizing other planets. The bases built on Mars and the Moon can only accommodate a few hundred astronauts conducting scientific research.

Moreover, this explosion affected the entire solar system. If they wanted to find a new place to stay, they could only look outside the solar system.

"What are you all doing? Get to work!" the leader said, coming out of the office and seeing everyone sitting in front of their computers, so quiet that the sound of keyboards had faded. Apparently, the leader hadn't been watching the news. Seeing that no one had moved, he berated them again. "We need to hurry up on this project. We have to show it to the client the day after tomorrow. You're still working overtime at this pace. Don't slack off."

"Still working overtime! Still working! What the hell! The world is about to end, what's the point of doing this! I quit!" The guy with glasses next to Chen Qiang stood up, pulled a chair over, and shouted at his boss, completely ignoring his sullen face. He picked up his bag and left.

You know, this programmer, the guy with glasses, is usually oppressed by his boss and works the most overtime in the entire company. I didn't expect him to explode today.

He left so suddenly that everyone came to their senses and stood up. What's the point of adding extra shifts? The world is about to end.

When people are most helpless, the first thing they think of is going home.

The same thing happened to Gu Zhaozhao. There was no one saying a word in their dormitory. The most vulnerable girl was already crying.

As college students, they should have had a bright future. But now, hearing such news, Gu Zhaozhao missed her parents so much. At a loss, she took out her phone and called her parents.

"Zhao Zhao, don't worry. Believe in the country and the government. Don't worry. There will be a way." His mother comforted the crying Zhao Zhao on the phone.

This isn't just the thinking of the older generation. It's also the thinking of the majority of people in China. Even though the world is ending, they still believe the government and the nation have a solution and will take care of them.

Perhaps it was because of the previous incident that the government's credibility was very high. Even after such news broke, nothing happened within China.

On the contrary, other countries have experienced a series of riots, and they do not believe what the government says.
