Chapter 171 People Under the Sky City 33
Zhang Xiaojia was startled by his sudden shout. She rolled her eyes at him in dissatisfaction and said unhappily, "Nonsense! The starship is equipped with a state-of-the-art air filter system. It's both environmentally friendly and has a long lifespan. It can filter out all impurities in the air, and the external material can prevent radiation..."
Old swan!
She has too much stuff.
This starship was originally just her means of transportation, focused on speed and convenience. But now it seems that the air filter inside is so advanced that it can be used separately.
The main reason why people cannot live in the restricted area is because of the poor air quality and radiation problems. If a living area can be built and equipped with such an air filtration system, and the materials on the exterior of the starship can isolate radiation, then humans can live here comfortably.
The two looked at each other, their eyes flashing with excitement and anticipation.
Lu Jing cursed, "He Fei, you big idiot, didn't even tell me about this invention? With this air filter and the outer materials of the starship, are you still afraid of the restricted area?"
When He Fei came back, he heard Lu Jing scolding him and sneered, "Air filters are easy. There are a lot of resources on Earth now, but don't even think about it. You can't find any external materials at all."
Zhang Xiaojia calmed down. "Yes! This is the material used to make Zerg shells. In StarCraft, they ended up raising Zerg."
He Fei hugged Zhang Xiaojia. Although his face was expressionless, Zhang Xiaojia knew that he was excited. Why? What was so special about meteorites?
He Fei didn't say anything, he just drove the starship to the maximum speed and started the next station. They arrived soon, and He Fei kicked Lu Jing down.
As soon as Lu Jing left, He Fei immediately said excitedly, "Silly girl, you are so stupid, haven't you discovered it yet? What is this meteorite!"
Zhang Xiaojia shook his head in confusion.
He Fei continued excitedly, "Do you remember what happened after we killed the Zerg Queen on Border Star 1981? At that time, you, the Federation, and the Royal Family were fighting fiercely for the control of Border Star 1981..."
Zhang Xiaojia pinched He Fei's waist impatiently and urged, "Get to the point!"
He Fei pinched Zhang Xiaojia's nose and said, "After all this talk, didn't you fight just for the Purple End Stone? Have you forgotten?"
Zhang Xiaojia frowned and asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with these meteorites? Don't tell me these meteorites are purple end stones. I've seen purple end stones before, and I've even used them to successfully develop a genetic agent that boosted the physical strength of interstellar people."
He Fei nodded and explained: "That's right, what you see are the finished products after processing, not the raw stones. It's like jade, after cutting it open, it's all purple end stone inside."
Zhang Xiaojia's biggest concern at this moment was: "How should we deal with this layer of radiation outside?"
He Fei shook his head helplessly, indicating that he didn't know, and said, "Put them in the storage bag first! We can find a way to deal with it later."
Xiao Ai in Zhang Xiaojia's mind called out, "Master, Lu Jing outside is screaming his throat out."
Zhang Xiaojia immediately opened the door and let Lu Jing in.
Lu Jing glared at He Fei fiercely.
He Fei wanted to use the purple end stone to build a mecha. His second aunt gave him the purple end stone, and he built a mecha. Later, when the Zerg were no longer a threat, she dismantled the mecha to study genetic agents. He didn't say anything, but his eyes were accusing him of everything. If there were more purple end stones this time, she could build him a mecha. At worst, she could dismantle it when she needed it in the future.
The starship ran like this for two and a half days. She and He Fei took turns driving the starship. Only Lu Jing was the most pitiful. He didn't want their help and did it alone. Now he is fast asleep.
During this rainy season, Zhang Xiaojia is the driver. There are many resources that are not available on Earth. Who would have thought that He Fei actually drove the Star Mother to Mars, the Moon, Venus... the eight planets to mine resources. This guy is much more powerful than her.
After the rainy season, the sand flew everywhere. For a month, the entire B area was covered in yellow sand. Her robot's daily job was to wipe, wipe, wipe...
Fortunately, the robots do not have autonomous consciousness, otherwise they would definitely complain to Zhang Xiaojia. Their mission is clearly to be bodyguards, not cleaners.
The weather with flying sand has finally gone, and it is white outside. Now in winter on Earth, we experience a three-month snow season every year. It basically does not snow during the day, but it starts to snow at night.
In this world, daytime temperatures drop as low as -20°C, while nights are unbearably cold, plummeting to -50°C! To make matters worse, there's no heating available (due to a lack of resources), but fortunately, every household is equipped with solar-powered heating pads. These absorb the sun's energy during the day and release it at night to maintain the indoor temperature. Generally speaking, a single heating pad can maintain a room temperature around zero degrees Celsius; if conditions permit, multiple heating pads can be placed in each room, raising the room temperature to around 10 degrees Celsius. However, more often than not, a family of more than ten people squeezes into a single room, sharing a single heating pad, for the entire snowy season.
As for water, pipes freeze easily in winter, so when the snow arrives, almost everyone faces a water shortage. People have found a solution: every household collects snow, adds a special medicine pellet, boils it, disinfects it, and uses it for drinking and domestic use. Cooking is powered by solar energy, managed by the community. This energy supply is not unlimited; the hours vary from community to community, but it is limited to eight hours per day. Of course, if you have the funds, you can also install your own solar system to meet additional needs.
This is the Earth today. It looks more technological than in the 1970s. It’s survivable, but without hope.
When it stops snowing at night, it means the end of the snow season. The light energy system has been produced, and the flying cars ordered by the sky city have also been completed.
Zhang Xiaojia held a meeting, and this time all the members of the Zhang family attended on time.
Zhang Xiaojia's tone was very serious. She went straight to the point and said, "What I am about to say is very important. People of the next generation must listen carefully!" Everyone pricked up their ears and looked at her nervously.
Zhang Xiaojia took a deep breath and continued, "The Intelligent Brain has decided to abandon Earth and no longer care about the lives of us humans. After careful consideration, the Zhang family members of the Rui and Qi generations, including me, have unanimously decided to remain on Earth. As for the Cheng generation, you have two choices: stay on Earth or go to the Sky City. However, if you choose to go to the Sky City, then if the Intelligent Brain returns to Earth in the future, you will no longer be able to obtain any resource support from the Zhang family. Therefore, please carefully consider your choice."
After saying this, Zhang Xiaojia looked at everyone quietly, waiting for their reaction. The Chengzhi people present were all lost in thought. This news was so shocking that it was difficult for them to accept it for a while.
