A short while later, hurried footsteps could be heard outside.
Many high-ranking military officials arrived; these are people who rarely make public appearances, and one of them was even a marshal.
After briefly learning about the situation outside, the military personnel entered the venue.
All the researchers stood up and applauded. The bigwigs quickly shrugged, indicating that everyone should stop being so polite and get straight to the point.
Professor Zhu continued to stand on the podium and talk about the information they had previously captured and their own observations.
After all the information was explained, the bigwigs whispered among themselves for a while before their expressions turned serious.
"It seems we're in a pretty dangerous situation this time; we need to get this sorted out as soon as possible."
Professor Zhu nodded slightly, then pointed to the two semi-solutions that had just been prepared on the screen.
"We now have two options, but one of them is almost impossible to complete, so I'll just briefly explain it."
The marshal nodded slightly, not wanting to waste time, and signaled to begin speaking.
The audience sat solemnly in their chairs, quietly watching Professor Zhu.
After Professor Zhu presented the first plan, the marshal shook his head repeatedly.
“We had such a hard time on our last trip to Mars, let alone finding Pluto, which is impossible to catch up with. Let’s talk about the second method.”
Professor Zhu nodded immediately, and then blurted out the second method.
"According to our current plan, we need to build at least 20,000 giant fumaroles on one side of the Earth so that the Earth can be derailed from the Sun's orbit."
After hearing his words, the marshal whispered to the people next to him for a while, then asked Professor Zhu.
"How much does each of those fumarole wells you mentioned cost to build?"
Professor Zhu was stunned for a moment after hearing this; he had never calculated the value of such a thing before.
However, he knew that this geyser would probably consume at least several trillion.
Moreover, after it is built, it will need to undergo various tests. If there is any error, it may need to be rebuilt. Therefore, building such a thing is very troublesome.
After he briefly stated his psychological estimate, the marshal showed a hint of surprise on his face.
"So expensive! It seems that if we build more than 20,000 of them, it will empty the wallets of the entire Earth."
The professor remained silent, which was tantamount to acknowledging the method, since his own testing was not standard either.
That was just a guess, and it was suggested that the price could fluctuate by more than a hundred times.
The marshal spoke briefly with the people around him.
"How accurate are your test results?"
Professor Zhu nodded immediately.
“It’s extremely accurate. We’ve tested it more than once, and the results have been almost identical each time, which shows that Pluto does indeed have orbital deviations.”
The marshal sighed, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"Alright, in that case, I will immediately convene a meeting of the three armed forces and submit your proposals now. We'll then see how many resources we can allocate and how much we can build. If we lack manpower and resources, we may have to seek help."
After listening, Professor Zhu nodded quickly. This thing was beyond their control and required the help of all mankind.
Two days after the tri-service conference was held as scheduled, the plan was officially finalized, and the leaders in all regions were now being notified door-to-door.
The policy of global fundraising has been issued, and orders have been given to increase taxes and fees and increase the working hours of everyone.
Suddenly, it seemed that the entire population of the Hope Continent felt the severity of this crisis.
The promotional video was quickly produced, depicting a disaster about to strike Earth from Pluto.
The news of this event caused an immediate uproar online, with various media outlets reporting on the potential disaster of Pluto hitting Earth. Experts from all walks of life also stepped forward to offer various analyses of the event.
For a moment, everyone focused all their attention on this aspect.
Even astronomical telescopes have sold out.
Everyone wants to know what the current situation is.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan and Xiao Shan, who were sitting at home, exchanged a glance and both breathed a sigh of relief.
Once they realized the crisis involved, their mission was essentially complete.
However, they have more important things to do next.
This is not only a matter for people on the mainland, but also for them.
If the Earth is destroyed, then their Julong Island will cease to exist.
This may be the biggest crisis they have faced since gaining power; it is a crisis for the entire planet.
Whether it's something that needs to be done or not, everyone started preparing actively.
First, there's the support for these technologies. To find out roughly how much it would cost, what technologies were needed, and whether the capabilities within those technologies were sufficient, Lu Yuan went to great lengths.
In order to understand what technologies they used, Lu Yuan first returned to the dimensional space.
They gave Qiao Ya the data about Earth that they had obtained from the laboratory, as well as the data they had learned themselves.
Qiao Ya's computer is far more advanced than this one. After some calculations there, they were able to arrive at the specific details.
It can be said that the actions taken by humans in this case are the most reasonable. Considering the current resources on Earth and their technology, this is the only level they can reach.
If we adjust the technology obtained from Lu Yuan, there is still room for improvement.
After some calculations, it was discovered that using Lu Yuan's technology could directly reduce the consumption costs of these technologies by about 10%.
While 10% may not sound like much, in terms of construction, it used to be considered an infinite amount.
After all, this massive project will consume almost all of the Earth's resources.
If all the resources on Earth were depleted, it would have a tremendous impact on the future of the planet.
If we could make changes in the way Lu Yuan used, perhaps we could preserve some of Earth's resources.
In fact, Lu Yuan was still worried about the Dragon Island issue.
If he really takes everything away, then Dragon Island might suffer losses.
