Over the past two weeks, in the galaxy where the planet Gaia is located.

The Climate Transformation Department has completely cleaned out the fluids secreted by the asterism on the surface of the star, allowing the restricted stellar light to be released again, allowing it to regain some of its former appearance.

This has caused the climate of all planets in the galaxy to begin to recover to a certain extent even without the help of the Climate Transformation Department.

However, the intensity of the star has changed significantly under the influence of the Star Eater, so if left alone, it will eventually

It is still necessary to take the initiative to carry out climate transformation to adjust the state of the planet, so that the planet, which has experienced two drastic environmental changes in a few years, can present the most perfect appearance that best meets Chen Ming's needs.

The planet's North and South Poles, the entire equator, and some areas determined by the planet's geographical structure and climate have been installed with devices that can release environmental modification gases under the operation of the Climate Modification Department according to the needs of climate modification.

In addition, the Transformation Department has also released a considerable number of artificial species that can be used to improve the climate and stabilize the environment.

It doesn't matter how long they live. As long as they exist, they can stabilize and accelerate the spread of climate-modifying gases released by those devices to a certain extent, and solidify the effects of these gases on this land.

At the same time as the Climate Transformation Department was doing this, some of the planet's native creatures also appeared in the equatorial region of Gaia's planet along with the implementation of the climate transformation plan.

The equator itself is the area that the Climate Transformation Department has determined to be the area that needs the highest priority for climate transformation.

This area receives more and faster light from stars than other places, and is also the area that is affected by changes in star light intensity the earliest and to the greatest extent.

It can be seen that the planetary consciousness of Gaia indeed understands that what Chen Ming and others are doing is for it, and they actively cooperate to make the actions of the Climate Transformation Department more efficient.

And at this moment.

Standing on the side of Gaia facing the star, Chen Ming, who was near the equator where large areas of snow had melted, could see with his own eyes everything that Gaia was doing.

The first things he could see returning to the cold surface from the underground ecosystem were the luminous plants that were spread throughout the underground ecosystem.

When they are underground, they will actively take on the shape of moss or fungi to adapt to the underground environment.

After they returned to the surface, they adapted to the surface environment at the speed of light.

It grows quietly in the equatorial region, which is still cold today.

Not only did it restore the shape of surface plants, but it was also absorbing the special gases used by the Climate Transformation Department to carry out initial climate transformation.

This is not just about absorption.

Instead, after absorbing them, they use natural substances to replicate these artificial climate-modifying gases and release them in batches.

Just like green plants release oxygen through photosynthesis.

These luminous plants derived from Gaia consciousness are undergoing some kind of chemical reaction and releasing transformed gases.

Under the monitoring of the monitoring stations set up by the Ministry of Climate Modification, it can be found that there is no deviation in the content of various components of the natural modified gases and artificial modified gases produced by these luminous plants.

It can be said that they are exactly the same.

While ensuring the content of ingredients in the modified gas, Gaia has greatly expanded the application scope of releasing the modified gas, which was originally limited by the environment and cost.

Catalyzing climate change.

These things are amazing.

"It looks like the climate modification is going pretty well. Was what I said before correct?"

The Minister of Climate Transformation next to Chen Ming had just confirmed the data on air composition content in different regions with members in other locations on the planet.

He also showed a satisfied expression on his face and responded: "Yes."

As more and more bioluminescent plants emerge from the ground, their positive impact on climate change will increase.

The ability of these plants to absorb man-made environmental modification gases, replicate them and emit them is truly eye-opening.

Normally, it is humans who create natural substances, but one day there would be plants that can replicate artificial substances into natural substances.

This situation not only shocked the minister, but also made him extremely jealous.

Because he saw in these things the possibility of realizing his project.

His idea was an automated climate modification technology called Project Seed of Life.

What is needed is a complete organism that can survive for a long time and adapt to the process of climate change.

The creatures he released during this climate transformation of the planet Gaia can only be considered semi-finished products, or not even semi-finished products, because they can only survive for a period of time and play a very small auxiliary role in the transformation.

Therefore, after seeing these Gaia plants, the minister couldn't help himself.

He wanted to take more samples.

He wanted to study these samples.

He wants to learn more about how the planet Gaia produces such special plants and use it in his project.

After hesitating for a while, the Minister of Climate Change decided to bring up the matter with Chen Ming: "Mr. Chen Ming, have you heard about a plan we are working on?"

"I've heard of the Seed of Life. It's a very thoughtful plan."

The idea itself is very grand, which is a plan to transform all transformable planets into habitable planets at a very low cost.

The difficulty is naturally great. At least after Chen Ming heard about the climate modification plan and specifically checked the results of the climate modification department, he has not found any public progress.

The Minister of Climate Change suddenly half-knelt on the ground and pulled up a small blade of grass that was emitting a faint, invisible fluorescent light.

This is the luminous plant that has grown rapidly to the ground under the influence of the planet's consciousness after the snow at the planet's equator melted, and its appearance has become more suitable for the surface environment.

"I want to use the capabilities that this planet is currently demonstrating to realize this plan."

"This planet has consciousness, and that consciousness will modify the planet to be perfectly adapted to the growth of almost all living things."

"This is the hope that the Seed of Life program can continue."

Chen Ming understands some biological related technologies.

Since the plants on the planet Gaia can transform this planet back to its original appearance and make it suitable for human survival, it is theoretically feasible for them to transform other planets.

"But these plants have changed like this only under the control of the planet's consciousness. It's useless if you just want to take the glowing plants away. It's also useless if you just want to study these plants. You must find a way to communicate with the planet's consciousness."

"I'm trying to do this, but the planet's consciousness seems to have become very weak because the state of life on the planet has deteriorated in the past few years. I can't even find it."

"and……"

Chen Ming glanced at the minister and didn't say anything directly.

But his meaning was very clear. He and the Climate Transformation Department only had a cooperative relationship on the climate transformation project on the planet Gaia. They were not close enough to let Chen Ming take the initiative to help them.

The minister was a minister after all, and he immediately understood the hidden meaning in Chen Ming's words and said, "I heard that you are recruiting people recently."

“That’s true, but I don’t think I’ve told many people about it.”

"This matter has spread to many places. I wonder if you are interested in opening a new project?"

"I need you to be more specific."

Chen Ming did not reject the Climate Transformation Department in this regard. After all, at least they did nothing wrong in the matter of climate transformation.

But if the Climate Modification Department wants to get his help, it has to at least come up with something decent.

Although his research center will definitely focus on ships, psychic energy and biology in the future, and has some biological connection with their climate modification technology, it is just a connection.

He needs more valuable information, at least to allow him to see the value of investing.

You can't just talk nonsense and expect him to give something.

Just like before Chen Ming discovered the special effect of the StarEater's body fluid, he directly told the Empire that he could build a Dyson sphere.

No matter how outrageous Chen Ming's own abilities are, most people in the empire would not believe such a thing.

But when Chen Ming took out the body fluid of the Star-Eating Body, what he said became truly valuable.

The minister seemed confident: "I believe the technology of our project has great potential."

He operated on his terminal for a few times, and seemed to have unlocked some permissions. He then handed it to Chen Ming and said, "This is what we have researched now."

Chen Ming reached out and took the terminal. He did not use his psychic power to control it. Instead, he followed the document that the minister had just opened and looked at the technology called Life Seeder.

This is a giant, movable biological culture dish that concentrates everything about the entire climate transformation process into this device.

Whether it is climate modification gases, or organisms that assist in the diffusion of modified gases, or everything needed in the later stages of climate modification, all are installed in this device.

What it lacks, unlike individual devices, is something that ties all the functions together, a unique organism that can fulfill all needs.

Rather than artificial, short-lived organisms that can only play an auxiliary role in climate change.

It can be seen that the research direction of the Climate Modification Department is very clear, which is to follow the path of biotechnology.

After all, in terms of cost alone, the cost of biological products is relatively lower.

And judging from the completeness of this document, this life seeder is already at the theoretical completion stage, but it lacks actual climate-changing organisms that can be sown.

As long as you can find the right organism, the rest will fall into place.

Chen Ming's expression was clearly moved. He did this on purpose for the minister to see.

But he didn't understand one thing: "Why have I never heard that this technology is so mature?"

The minister looked helpless and sad, but he immediately calmed down and said, "Because I'm worried that someone will snatch it away."

"You may not know this, but many times projects like ours, which are not important to the empire but do have a certain value, and the researchers do not have any background, are of special use to many people."

"You're helping people get gilded, right?"

Although Chen Ming had never encountered similar problems along the way, after all, he was a psychic and had powerful psychics behind him to support him.

But he had experienced many similar things in his previous life.

All I can say is that there is no escape from this anywhere.

"Then you don't worry about me?"

The minister looked down at the blade of grass he had just pulled up and said, "This technology has been stuck for several years. This is our last hope."

There was obvious desire in his tone, and a hint of worry in his eyes.

"uh-huh."

"Yes, we have been busy with this in recent years. Most of the funds have been invested here. We heard that the person you are cooperating with has very advanced biotechnology, and we also want to find him, but we don't have your contact information."

"We didn't see this opportunity until you contacted us."

Chen Ming shook his head slightly and asked, "Are you so obsessed with this? You should know that the Empire has no shortage of habitable planets. The universe is so big, there will be many habitable planets waiting for the Empire to discover."

“This technology has no future at all.”

The minister seemed to hear a rejection in Chen Ming's words, and felt somewhat disappointed.

"This is my ideal. I want to make every planet habitable."

"I also know that this is unlikely, so I relaxed my goal. As long as there is the potential to become a habitable planet, I hope they can become a habitable planet."

"Why?"

“Because I want to.”

Chen Ming frowned slightly. He could sense that the minister's last words were not true. But Chen Ming did not hear any sense of danger from his words. He did this for some more personal purpose.

After thinking for a while, Chen Ming asked again: "Are the rest of you willing to devote yourself to this kind of place? For several years? Do they have no objection?"

"People who have objections will not stay. We haven't had any new people in our department for about four or five years, and everyone who is still here is willing to invest in this project."

While responding to Chen Ming, the minister muttered silently to himself in his heart.

They may have stayed because they had the same ideals as him, or because of the free time, or they simply liked it here, but in any case they stayed.

Chen Ming stared at the minister for a long time, thinking about the risks and benefits of doing so.

He suddenly looked up at the sky, then at the sparse grass under his feet, and then made a decision.

“What else do you need for your project?”

The minister was stunned for a moment, thinking about what Chen Ming meant, and asked with some surprise: "Do you agree?"

"Yes, tell me what else your project needs and I will help you prepare it, but the rest of the research will require your own efforts."

The minister couldn't help wanting to laugh out loud, but he still had to remain respectful in front of Chen Ming and quickly controlled his emotions.

But he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"By the way, what's your name, Minister?"

"Tian Zhan."

Chen Ming agreed to cooperate with the Ministry of Climate Change.

Matters concerning his research center that were supposed to be given only to some high-ranking officials of the empire and the legion were sent directly to them.

When the scientific research center is open to the public, a special area will be allocated for them.

At present, it seems that Tian Zhan is planning to change jobs with the entire climate transformation department.

It’s not impossible.

The Climate Change Department itself is a leisurely department.

Hundreds of people have been busy working on the automated climate transformation which was extremely difficult in theory some time ago, and they even managed to achieve almost crucial results.

It just so happens that the luminous plants on the planet Gaia have been discovered, and there is a key sign that can lead to results, so it is normal to switch jobs here.

In this day and age, it doesn’t necessarily mean that working for the government is a good thing.

For researchers with aspirations, it is most normal to go where there are resources.

It’s just that under normal circumstances, the resources provided by the government are the most sufficient, but since Chen Ming can give more, there will always be people coming to Chen Ming’s side.

Of course, there are certainly researchers who only seek status and money.

Therefore, Chen Ming was quite curious whether the Climate Transformation Department would lose some people who were important for the research if they switched over.

However, Tian Zhan said that he would do some ideological work and would give Chen Ming a reply soon.

Of course, the two of them would not do these things immediately, but regarding Tian Zhan’s idea, Chen Ming could try to do something now.

Chen Ming asked Tian Zhan to wait for a while, and at the same time called his own Supreme Point over and jumped to the orbit of the planet Gaia.

There is a special cultivation area on his spaceship, where some vegetables and fruits are grown that Chen Ming thinks taste good.

Of course, the most important thing is his fairy tree.

Chen Ming's purpose of calling Zhigaodian over was very simple.

He wanted to realize an idea he had mentioned before.

Plant the fairy tree on the planet Gaia.

Although the planet Gaia is still colder than a normal habitable planet at this time, the fairy tree, as a psychic creature, is not that fragile.

The characteristics of the fairy tree itself should help Chen Ming achieve some of his goals.

The location where the fairy tree was planted was right under Chen Ming's feet, at the equator of Gaia, where the climate was the most stable.

There is no need to consider soil, air quality, or water quality.

As long as he plants the fairy tree, he believes that the planetary consciousness will come over and help him take care of the fairy tree.

Chen Ming brought the fairy tree out from the highest point and placed it in a deep pit that had just been dug on the ground.

Before he even ordered the digging robot to fill the hole, he saw the soil deep underground was moving.

Of course, this is not the soil really moving, but some Gaia plants pushing the soil under the soil to wrap the roots of the fairy tree.

The fairy tree can soothe people's consciousness, and of course it can also soothe the consciousness of all living things.

When the fairy tree was planted on the planet Gaia.

Chen Ming finally felt a majestic, yet extremely weak consciousness, which was almost dissipating, appearing near him.

That is the consciousness of this planet Gaia.

Tian Zhan next to him was paying full attention to the Gaia plants that were filling the deep pits where the fairy trees were to be planted, and he didn't notice at all that Chen Ming was communicating with Gaia consciousness.

soon.

Where the fairy tree was planted, a Gaia plant with the characteristics of fairy leaves grew out of the renovated soil.

It quickly grows into a mature plant, blooms, bears fruit, and withers.

The flesh quickly rotted into mud, leaving only the seeds on the stump. After shaking a few times, they fell in front of Chen Ming.

Chen Ming picked up the seeds and held them in his hand.

He could feel that there was a certain dormant planetary consciousness inside this plant.

It is only a partially weak consciousness that retains only the instinct to maintain life, and will die after a period of activity.

This was exactly the creature Tian Zhan needed, meeting all his needs.

But it's not perfect yet.

The consciousness contained in this seed may not necessarily be able to adapt to the environment of different planets.

Therefore, this seed still needs special cultivation and reproduction in the laboratory to create a organism that is truly suitable for the life seeder.

Chen Ming handed the seed to Tian Zhan and said, "This is what you want. The rest is up to you. If you don't have enough seeds, you can come and get new samples at any time."

"You will have to worry about the climate transformation of this planet in the future."

"The location of this planet..."

Chen Ming pointed above his head.

Outside of the now slowly recovering atmosphere, a wormhole connecting to the Origin System is orbiting it.

Whether it is this Origin Galaxy or the Gaia Galaxy, which is now connected to the Origin Galaxy and is physically close to the Origin Galaxy, it can almost be said to be the same galaxy. They are all...

“…very important.”

Chen Ming regarded the Origin System as the foothold for the expansion of his world before the wormhole.

Then this galaxy, this planet Gaia, is the foothold for his expansion of the world after the wormhole.

However, Chen Ming is not in a hurry to expand outward for the time being. It is more important to gain a firm foothold.

He also needs to deal with things in the Origin System.

As for the Gaia galaxy, he has sent out some reconnaissance fleets to conduct preliminary reconnaissance of the surrounding information, confirm the general situation of each galaxy and whether it is dangerous, and assign a development priority.

Wait until he has the energy to carry out detailed control over this aspect before starting development.

Moreover, Chen Ming recently had some opinions about the Zerg's rough way of resource exploitation.

He needs a more sophisticated development approach.

As for how to do it specifically, he already had an idea, which he could use when he started developing the planets around the Gaia galaxy.

In addition, Chen Ming did something else in the past two weeks.

It was during the communication with the survivors that the tone of conducting a transaction once a month was determined.

Apart from that, the rest of the two weeks is not worth mentioning.

Everything was stable and was slowly developing towards the situation that Chen Ming most wanted to see.

And time began to pass quickly again without us noticing.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
