Half a month later.
Most people in the world have returned to their own pace of life and are no longer paying as much attention to the Mui Ne incident as before.
After all, the memory of modern people is short. Even many people involved in the Mui Ne incident decided to embrace a new life with the help given by various governments overtly and the help given secretly by Yong Zhou, and gradually forgot about this incident.
Everything seems to be back on track.
In addition to quietly handling the follow-up of the Mina incident and continuing to research and investigate the traces of eternal daylight in history, the Daylight Seeking Bureau, the Extraordinary Research Alliance, and the Abnormal Countermeasures Bureau have seriously gathered a large number of people to study spiritual practice methods.
During this time, Yong Zhou had finally finished the follow-up work related to the Mina incident. Both the confidentiality of the relevant information and the compensation for the victims had been basically completed.
Next, the deceased are gone, and the living will continue to work with their will and contribute to the future of all mankind.
But after doing so many things, Mr. Chen did not really have time to relax.
Even though he had just returned from the past less than a month ago, he had just brought back two strong men to the organization and dealt with a series of troublesome matters.
But there are still many things that require him to decide.
For example, when Malo was still thinking about how to improve his relationship with his newly adopted goddaughter, Mr. Chen was planning and preparing for several major events to be done next in Chenxi Cave with Zhang Zihang, the vice president of Chenxi College.
After digging out the White Bone Demon and bringing back Xuan Zang, who is still alive in a sense, there is still a lot to do, such as: completing the production of large-scale spiritual power sensing equipment, holding a spiritual awakening ceremony for the students of Dawn Academy, and holding a memorial and commendation meeting for the victims after everyone is done with their recent work...
What he needed to discuss with Zhang Zihang was naturally the issue of opening up spirituality to the students of Chenxi Academy.
After those students had studied in Dawn College for a period of time, they were sent out for a period of practical assessment because of the matter of the Abyss Believers.
Daily study and work can only be done online, and occasionally use the secret door to return to Chenxi Academy for further in-depth study.
Today, the students of Dawn Academy are near the branch area where they will be assigned in the future. They are assisting the branch director in carrying out various tasks while investigating and cleaning out the believers of the Abyss.
Faced with increasingly arduous tasks, Mr. Chen felt that it was time to give the mulberries of the hibiscus tree to the students of Dawn Academy to officially open up their spirituality and enlighten them to become extraordinary psychics.
The previous study and training were sufficient, and these first members of Dawn Academy were already qualified and capable of eating mulberries.
The construction of branches in various places has been basically completed, and it is time to make them official members.
At that time, the procedure will be the same as when Russell and others became official members: accepting the connection and baptism of Starfire, taking the oath, and being assigned to a department.
However, the difference is that for these students of Dawn Academy, there is one more thing: eating mulberries will officially make them psychics! During this ceremony of opening their spirituality and officially conferring their titles, the organization of each Dawn Academy student will also be officially upgraded and transferred according to the previously agreed plan.
From a preparatory member affiliated with Chenxi College, he became a formal member affiliated with various departments.
This is not just an improvement in status and welfare.
It is also a heavier responsibility.
"By the way, leader, how do we accept the connection and baptism of the Spark now?"
Zhang Zihang looked at Chen Sheng with some confusion.
When the first group of seven people held the formal membership induction ceremony, they received the connection and baptism from Spark.
After this baptism, Zhang Zihang and others not only witnessed the past of the pioneers. The will of countless pioneers condensed in the Spark turned into a spiritual and mental protection, which blessed Zhang Zihang and others with resistance in terms of spiritual and mental strength. In addition, they could also use the chat group function of Spark to have a more convenient remote group chat function.
But before that, the sparks seemed to fly into the sky and disappear.
"The sparks simply merged into the starry sky, they didn't disappear."
"When the time comes, the light of the sparks will shine."
Mr. Chen looked up at the vast starry sky and said.
After he reached the 5th level of spiritual power and became the Lord of the Stars, his strength has been constantly improving.
The biggest change is naturally the two major caves.
The sky of the Headquarters Cave and the Dawn Cave immediately turned into a starry sky after he reached Level 5, as if echoing his status as the Lord of the Stars.
The sparks obtained from the first secret ruins were also integrated into the starry sky.
"Then I have basically arranged everything here, there are no other questions."
Zhang Zihang nodded at Mr. Chen.
Regarding changes in staffing, specific benefits, and levels of authority, Interior Minister Bai Yu has been dealing with them recently after he was busy dealing with the Wanai Island incident, and the heads of various branches are also assisting in handling them.
His responsibility here is nothing more than assisting in carrying out the formal membership induction ceremony, and at the same time preparing to organize and carry out higher-level education for those students who have fully awakened their spirituality.
After all, although those students have become official members, it does not mean that they have officially graduated from Dawn Academy.
To be precise, there are no graduates from Dawn Academy.
Don’t you see that even the leaders, pioneers, and the first batch of members are still in a state of learning.
Learning never ends.
In the future, in addition to the busy work in various branches, these students of Chenxi Academy will also have to undergo daily online learning and occasional offline learning.
"No, in addition to what I just told you, there is one more thing you need to prepare for."
Mr. Chen patted Zhang Zihang on the shoulder, showing an expression that showed he had a long and arduous journey ahead of him.
This made Zhang Zihang stunned and confused for a moment.
The organizational framework is now becoming clearer and the distribution of functions is becoming more obvious.
He is currently the Vice President of Dawn College, with authority equivalent to that of a branch director.
In addition to being responsible for the daily patrols and monitoring of Dawn Academy within the Arctic Circle, he is also responsible for organizing and coordinating Dawn Academy's teaching-related work.
What else can he be responsible for? "We can start planning the recruitment of the second batch of members."
"Compared to the first batch which only had 1,200 recruitment places, the second batch can be increased to 2,000."
"After you finish the official membership induction ceremony and other matters, you can prepare to start this matter."
Mr. Chen gave instructions seriously.
The organization currently still does not have enough staff, so compared to companies around the world that have chosen to reduce recruitment due to economic contraction, Yongzhou has chosen to continue to expand recruitment in stark contrast.
Hearing this, Zhang Zihang's eyes turned serious.
This is indeed not a trivial matter. It concerns the future of the organization and the next generation of the organization.
And it seems that he is indeed responsible for this matter.
Zhang Zihang couldn't help but fall into deep thought about this.
The recruitment of this second batch of members will be somewhat different from the first batch.
The existence of Yong Zhou has already attracted the attention of the big countries. How to recruit them on a large scale in secret? There are also a large number of acquaintances among the peripheral members who want to participate in the next round of recruitment. How to solve this problem?
Most of the students who dropped out of the last round of enrollment will participate again this time, so do we need to raise the assessment criteria for them again? These are the questions he needs to think about.
While looking at Zhang Zihang who was thinking with his head down, Chen Sheng was preparing to return to the headquarters cave to continue refining the large-scale spiritual power sensing equipment that was almost completed.
However, a light flashed through the secret door that was permanently opened between the Dawn Cave and the Headquarters Cave, and then Bai Yu's figure crossed the secret door and came over.
"I have some questions that need your decision."
When Bai Yu saw Chen Sheng here, he immediately ran towards him.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing this, Chen Sheng mobilized his strength and made Bai Yu, who was running towards him, appear next to him.
"Regarding the memorial and commendation meeting held before the official membership induction ceremony, I still have a few questions that I don't quite understand."
"In the rough plan you gave us, what does this procedure called [Integration into Sparks] mean?"
Bai Yu looked at Chen Sheng with some doubt.
The official membership induction ceremony will be held in a few days, but before that, there will be a memorial and commendation meeting for all the victims of Yongzhu so far.
She made general arrangements for the dress, etiquette and other procedures at the memorial and commendation meeting according to the framework given by the leader, but she was a little confused about the last step mentioned by the leader, "Integration into the Spark."
Isn't Spark something that is only used when the official members are awarded titles? At that time, the official members can communicate efficiently through the Spark chat group.
When Chen Sheng heard Bai Yu's doubts, he said with a serious expression: "Integration into the Spark is just as the name suggests."
After he finished speaking, a ball of light that Chen Sheng had been collecting appeared in his palm.
Sparks are the crystallization of the pioneers' beliefs and spirits.
Features such as creating group chats and increasing mental resistance are all attached to the spark that embodies the beliefs of countless pioneers.
Chen Sheng still remembers that when he first obtained the Spark, the system introduced it as: [Spark: This is the condensation of legends and the inheritance of beliefs. May everyone become a Spark under the guidance of the pioneers]
He used to think that the phrase "May everyone become a spark under the guidance of the pioneers" meant that he hoped that the members could feel the beliefs of the predecessors in the spark and then take them as role models to learn from.
But he discovered it when collecting the bodies on Mui Ne Island.
This sentence, "May everyone become a spark under the guidance of the pioneers," can truly integrate the spirituality of the sacrifices.
All the sacrifices are pioneers, and the beliefs of all the pioneers will be immortalized in the sparks.
They have always been there! And with this spirituality that has been integrated into the spark and preserved forever, Chen Sheng feels that he may have a chance to do something after he becomes stronger.
Looking up at the boundless starry sky that was blended with sparks, a strange light flashed in Chen Sheng's eyes.
After hearing Chen Sheng's words and looking at the ball of light on Chen Sheng's palm, Bai Yu felt as if he understood something.
After pondering for a moment, she stopped asking questions about the memorial and commendation meeting, as she had some other questions she wanted to ask.
"Leader, what you said earlier about diplomacy may make us less mysterious."
"Wasn't it our organization's policy to protect humans in secret as much as possible?"
Bai Yu frowned, somewhat confused.
She wasn't someone who believed that ancestral rules were immutable, but she couldn't help but be curious as to why the purpose of the organization had changed to some extent.
"Because the underlying rules of this material universe are changing."
"Adapting to change is the unchanging purpose."
Mr. Chen said in a mysterious tone.
Maintaining the organizational character is one of the important channels to gain organizational experience. Previously, the character he set for the organization was a mysterious ancient organization that secretly protected humanity.
The reason is that the obscure spiritual rules are not the right way, and technology is the right way for this material universe.
In the past, humans did not have a global scientific system and scientific worldview. The spiritual power system would cause humans to jump to too high a level, so that they would be trapped in a technological black box that was too large and unable to extricate themselves. It was estimated that there would be no reliable research results for tens of thousands of years.
That is why the organization has been kept secret to avoid affecting the development of human civilization as much as possible.
Now that the scientific worldview has been established, even if spiritual power is discovered, humans will certainly conduct research under the scientific system, and spiritual power may not cause too much damage to humans.
Moreover, after returning from this time travel through time, Mr. Chen discovered that the underlying rules of this material universe have begun to change. It seems that some spiritual rules are blending with scientific rules, which may lead to a new path of spiritual technology.
Under such rules and status quo, it is a perfect opportunity to create the Earth United Army and launch an expedition and counterattack against the abyss.
If we continue to keep it mysterious as before, it would be a bit too pedantic.
Adapting to the rules to change its purpose is what a non-conservative organization should do.
Yong Zhou is naturally not pedantic, so it is not surprising that he decided to conduct diplomacy appropriately in the future.
This kind of non-pedantic Eternal Day is actually in line with maintaining the organization's personality. Isn't this a channel for gaining experience? The most important thing is...
Who says proper diplomacy can't keep things mysterious and classy? It's not like Everday has disbanded and merged with the humans.
In the eyes of those people, Yong Zhou will always be so majestic and invincible, and will become the eternal beacon of the Earth Alliance Army.
As Chen Sheng was thinking this, he looked at Bai Yu who seemed to be thinking about something and smiled.
This matter needs no further explanation.
The most important thing at the moment is to prepare for the formal membership awarding ceremony and the memorial and commendation meeting.
In the era that is gradually beginning to change, Bai Yu will naturally understand everything.
She will understand that the changing times have finally begun.
If we say that when Everday was just established and there were only seven people, and everyone was trying to cultivate peripheral forces, it was the Everday beta version.
Then when Dawn Academy began recruiting students and the entire organization began to officially expand, it was undoubtedly the official version 1.0 of Eternal Day.
Now, with countless pioneers and strong men, a complete organizational structure, and members distributed all over the world, Everday is Everday 2.0.
Now that everything is on track, Yongzhao has truly become a behemoth.
Even Dawn Academy has begun planning to recruit the second batch of students.
Whether it is for Eternal Day or for the entire world and era, this will be a brand new version!
The fourth generation of Yong Zhou is in the ascendant and is ready to welcome new members and new goals.
The investigations into the supernatural by various countries have begun to show results, and the new power system has begun to have initial contact with the original system.
The invasions from the abyss are getting more powerful with each passing round, and new methods emerge one after another. No one knows what the next round will be like.
After this.
A new extraordinary era has just officially begun.
The fourth generation of Eternal Day has just made some preparations before the upcoming wave of the times.
