Chapter 16: I can personally enjoy one less point.
After several more verifications, the brainwaves of the Trisolaran scientists and engineers collectively rejoiced.
With this engine, their civilization is saved. They no longer have to watch the three stars grinning at them, nor do they have to worry about the intimidation from that Earthling named "Luo Ji".
Earthlings are nothing but lowly insects. Let those Earth insects frolic for a couple more days. Once they reach the solar system with this engine, it will be time for reckoning.
The Trisolaran scientists and engineers quickly reported their simulation results.
The governors were indeed farsighted; no wonder they were able to become governors—they anticipated that this spaceship contained something extraordinary.
Amidst their excitement, the Trisolaran scientists and engineers had another growing question: Where did this strange alien civilization come from?
It's unlikely that a civilization could design such an advanced engine while lagging behind in other aspects, given the normal trajectory of civilization's development.
The governor's reply came quickly: continue research and analysis with the goal of fully mastering this engine technology.
Aside from its commendable design, this engine has little value for analysis and research; their engines are hundreds of times superior.
The greatest value of this building and this spaceship lies in its unique engine design.
To conduct further research, they would need to actually start the spaceship or build such an engine for experimentation.
The "Engineers" only surpassed the Trisolaran civilization in space technology; in almost every other aspect, they were completely defeated. The buildings and spaceships they left on LV-223 were quickly analyzed by Trisolaran scientists and engineers, demonstrating their technological superiority.
Preparations are complete, and the time for dismantling has arrived. Before the dismantling officially begins, the rocks and dust covering the building must be removed.
As one machine after another, some visible and some invisible, entered, the rocks and gravel covering the building disappeared rapidly, as if something had licked them off, leaving them spotless, without a speck of dust.
Before long, a huge crater was licked out of the earth, and the building revealed its original appearance in the crater: it was a metal building with a hemispherical top, and a human skull on the top of the sphere.
When covered by rocks, it wasn't very noticeable, but now that the rocks and gravel have been cleared away, it becomes immediately visible.
Beneath the hemispherical shape are a large cluster of interconnected buildings, somewhat resembling Yuri's barracks in "Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge," only taller, larger, and covering a wider area.
The Engineers' spaceship was parked below and in front of the building.
After clearing away the outer rocks, they began cleaning the building and the interior of the spaceship, which took longer than cleaning the exterior.
During the cleanup, all the rocks, soil, water, insects, the remains of the "Engineers" found, and the jars containing "black water" must be sorted and stored.
Once the internal and external cleaning was completed, the dismantling officially began. Countless machines poured into the building, and under the command of the Trisolaran scientists and engineers, they carried out a precise dismantling of the building and the spaceship.
This is more precise and delicate than neurosurgery, completely lacking the violent and rough nature of ordinary disassembly. Instead, it possesses an artistic beauty, a beauty called "technology," which is pleasing to the eye.
The components were disassembled, numbered, placed in specially made containers, and then escorted back to the Trisolaran planet by the fully armed Trisolaran army.
The only surviving "engineer" on the spaceship was also removed and placed in a sealed container along with his hibernation pod.
Cheng Yuan pointed to the screen and saw the information about the transport container: it was made of a high-interaction material.
In layman's terms, this container is made of the same material as the "water droplet," and once trapped inside, it is impossible to break unless the "Engineer" transforms into the Hulk.
It's a lie. Even if this "engineer" transforms into the Hulk, it depends on which version of the Hulk it is. A regular Hulk can't break the "water droplet".
As the last spaceship component was returned to the Trisolaran planet, a wave of joyful brainwaves erupted within the space station. With this alien spaceship, they too could master the technology for high-speed travel in space.
Cheng Yuandao: "Connect me to the Prime Minister, the Science Governor, the Industry Governor, the Space Governor, the Public Security Governor, the Military Governor..."
Virtual projections of the Trisolaran Prime Minister and several regents appeared in the safe house, saying in unison, "Greetings, Supreme Regent!"
Cheng Yuandao said: "The 'Engineer's' spaceship has been dismantled and retrieved. Immediately organize manpower to restore the spaceship and reverse engineer the technology on it so that we can build our own faster-than-light spaceship as soon as possible."
"Once the faster-than-light engine is manufactured, it should be deployed as soon as possible. Some of it should be used to bring back our fleet, the 'Droplet,' and the Sophon, while the rest should be used to probe the area around LV-223. We must at least find out what is happening within ten light-years of LV-223 and have it under our control."
He didn't want to be like the "Engineers" from the Alien universe and humans on Earth, who, as an interstellar civilization, didn't even bother with any interstellar defenses: "My door is always open, and enemies are welcome to come."
The Scientific Administrator asked, "Your Excellency, what should be done with the 'Engineer,' the deceased 'Engineer's' remains, and the 'Black Liquid'?"
Cheng Yuandao said, "Keep the 'Engineer' in a dormant state. Research on its body is permitted, as are the remains of deceased 'Engineers' and the 'Black Water.' I have only one requirement: all research must be controlled. I do not want a Trisolaran to appear in our civilization!"
In reality, even if they appeared, it wouldn't be a big deal. With the aliens' fighting power, they could only bully humans, who were weakened in the movies. They wouldn't have any chance of resisting the Trisolaran civilization.
How many divisions does the alien have? What level of technology do they have? How many hits from the "droplet" could they withstand?
Even if Godzilla or an alien came, they'd have to kneel down and sing "Conquer"!
"The eavesdropping governor and military governor should pay close attention to space. Human spaceships from the Alien world might arrive at any time. Prepare defenses on LV-223. Although it wasn't a warship that came in the movie, don't be careless."
"Bioarchitect, sanitation archarchitect, together with the surveillance archarchitect and military archarchitect, conduct a thorough inspection of LV-223, and then carry out a comprehensive disinfection to eliminate any potential threats on LV-223."
"If the safety of the Alien dimension is not an issue, we will migrate our entire civilization to LV-223, and from there expand throughout the entire Alien dimension. Security is of paramount importance and cannot be taken lightly!"
"In addition, you must work with the environmental and meteorological officials to study the atmospheric conditions of LV-223 and try to modify the atmosphere and weather on LV-223 to suit us."
The governor specifically mentioned by Cheng Yuan: "Your Excellency Supreme Governor, we guarantee to complete the mission!"
At this moment, the Trisolaran Prime Minister asked, "Your Excellency, if LV-223 is modified to have an atmosphere suitable for us, but not for you, would you like to reserve an area and modify it into an environment suitable for your habitation?"
The other governors present looked over upon hearing this, almost forgetting that this person was a higher-dimensional human, not one of their Trisolarans, and that the environment suitable for them was not suitable for this person.
Cheng Yuan waved his hand: "Thank you for your kindness, Prime Minister, but there's no need for that trouble. I can enjoy a little less, but the progress of civilization cannot be delayed!"
