Skyscrapers are rising from the ground, and all kinds of houses are built for people to live in wherever there is land.
Of course not everyone lives in the same size house.
There are families of more than ten people squeezed into a small house, and there are also families of three living alone in a large flat.
Single-family villas are rare, and most of them belong to the royal family and upper-class aristocrats.
Seventy percent of Beichen Star is ocean, and only thirty percent is land.
In addition to being a place for humans to live, the land also has to produce food, and certain areas must be reserved for wild animals and various wild vegetation to maintain atmospheric stability.
Under such circumstances, the living environment of ordinary people has deteriorated greatly, and even food is almost not enough for ordinary people to maintain the minimum living standard.
Professor Zuo Lunhui sighed and said, "At this point, we only have one way out. We, the people of the Beichen Empire, cannot be confined to Beichen Star!"
“We want to expand outward!”
"There are so many planets in the entire Beichen galaxy, there must be habitable planets like our Beichen planet!"
"In the past, the main constraint on our development was that space travel took too long."
"In space, distance is measured in light years."
"We previously considered putting our pioneers into hibernation in space capsules and then releasing them when they reached their destination."
"But even so, during the long journey of space, even a genetically evolved being can only spend their entire lives in hibernation."
"When they reach their destination and awaken from hibernation, they will also reach the end of their lives."
"So we must explore another way to travel in space: using wormholes!"
"With wormholes, we can greatly shorten the time required for interstellar travel, and we don't need to keep the pioneers in hibernation."
Professor Zuo Lunhui said passionately: "The technology to find, measure, and fix wormholes, as well as to explore them, was far beyond our current level of scientific and technological development."
"But we found a description of wormholes in the last batch of scientific works left by the late Emperor Tan Tai Lin!"
“Although it only contains some novel ideas and an unsystematic overview, it has given us great inspiration!”
"In the two hundred years since the late emperor's passing, our Academy of Sciences has been focusing on this technology."
"Today, we can swear before the late emperor's portrait that we have finally lived up to his trust, broken through the technological bottleneck, and developed a mature wormhole crossing technology!"
As he finished speaking, a virtual display screen appeared in front of everyone.
The portrait of the founding emperor Tan Tai Lin appeared on the screen again.
Xia Chujian looked at the portrait and was filled with emotion.
Isn't this the portrait of the founding emperor, Tan Tai Lin, that appeared in their textbooks from elementary school to high school?!
No, it should be a high-definition photo.
Tan Tai Lin's conspicuous hooked nose has truly become a characteristic of royal appearance.
Of course, Xia Chujian also knew that not every descendant of the royal family had this obvious feature.
Some people inherit the appearance characteristics from their maternal side and do not have this hooked nose.
However, in the history of the Beichen Empire that Xia Chujian knew, the heir to the Beichen throne must have a hooked nose, which has become an unspoken rule.
Xia Chujian didn't know why, but all the heirs to the throne in history, even the empresses, had this appearance feature.
So this gene is accumulated and strengthened from generation to generation, right?
Xia Chujian thought about the eldest prince and the second princess whom she had met in real life. They both had hooked noses.
Looking at the second princess and the third prince from nine thousand years ago, they have the same appearance features.
Xia Chujian's thoughts raced around like a horse for nine thousand years.
At this time, Professor Zuo Lunhui had led everyone to stand up, crossed their hands in front of their chests, bowed to the man on the display screen on the chair, and swore allegiance.
Everyone was muttering something, and Xia Chujian had no choice but to lower his head, but he did not make a gesture to swear allegiance.
Even though it was in the game, Xia Chujian didn't want to swear allegiance to this person.
She still feels upset about it.
Because she felt that in this game, the entire Beichen Empire was clearly the kingdom I had conquered!
She even wondered if the game's mechanical intelligence was playing a trick on her, refusing to acknowledge her achievements in the first level.
Could it be that her score in the real world was also changed...
If it dares to do so, she will fight it to the death!
Xia Chujian became furious.
When she thought of this, her heart tightened and she was in no mood to listen to the noisy, excited and boisterous discussions in the conference room.
At this moment, on the display screen embedded in the golden chair, the sickly-looking emperor coughed heavily and said, "You all have a point!"
"I also feel that the Beichen Empire can no longer be limited to one planet!"
"The country needs to expand outwards, so as not to be complacent!"
After the emperor said this, he naturally received applause from everyone in the conference room.
He seemed to be in a better mood, and his tone was not as flat anymore.
He raised his hand and gestured to everyone, and everyone stopped applauding.
