Chapter 1449: It Has To Do With Our Time

They didn’t just stand at the door. Kelvin took the two to the B3 floor, where the Special Projects Inst.i.tute was located, and led them to the office at the end of the hall.

It was a huge scientific research center and a semi-enclosed housing facility. In addition to scientific research facilities, there were also living and entertainment facilities.

Almost all researchers involved in S-cla.s.s confidential scientific research projects had reported to here before. The more than two hundred researchers that returned from the Mars colony were temporarily placed here at this moment. Except for Amos and other special researchers with S-cla.s.s authority, most people would have to spend several years here before they could return to society.

Of course, Celestial Trade was also generous with the compensation for these devotees.

Not only was the direct bonus for each person over 10 million Xin New dollars, but everyone was also permitted to inject ten years of DNA telomere extension agents as compensation for their contributions. These terms were written in the confidentiality agreement and were completely voluntary.

“…I know you are more concerned about how many weapons we can dig from the graves of the Gaia civilization, but what I want to say next may disappoint you. In the two aspects of s.p.a.ce technology and military technology, the Gaia civilization had no significant achievement. They completed the unity very early through the unique method within their species and maintained peace and stability for thousands of years. And according to my research… and in the later stages of the civilization, they may have realized the so-called utopia,” Dr. Amos said.

Not all civilizations are keen on researching tools for killing the same kind.

Using the standards of human civilization to a.n.a.logize extraterrestrial civilizations, thinking that the “civilization theory” based on human history, culture, and behavior habits are universal, and it is itself an ignorant and arrogant behavior.

Although Jiang Chen had considered this possibility a long time ago, after he heard Dr. Amos’s words in person, he couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed. However, before he had time to be disappointed, Amos’s next sentence made him see the light again.

“But that being said, based on the theoretical knowledge left by the Gaia civilization, it is not impossible to develop weapons capable of fighting colonial s.h.i.+ps of which are beyond our times,” Dr. Amos continued after a pause. “As you know, science and technology are two different things. The former determines the development potential of the latter, while we mainly inherit the former.”

“Can you finish talking in one go?” Jiang Chen complained.

Amos smiled and chose not to respond to that question. However, he continued on this topic, “In addition, I found that the Gaia civilization has a deep understanding of the Klein particles. Their understanding between the three-dimensional world and the four-dimensional world has completely subverted my understanding of this kind of particle that only exists in concepts.”

“Oh?”

Jiang Chen looked at Amos unexpectedly, only to see the latter nod before he continued.

“In their research on Klein particles, I found a very interesting phenomenon. It is about the short-lived form of Klein particles when they collapse from four dimensions to three dimensions and the form of energy conversion across the three-dimensional coordinate system. ”

Kelvin, who stood next to Amos, was confused. With a frown, he asked, “What do you mean? Can you make it clearer?”

Since his profession did not match this topic, it was difficult to conversate.

Kelvin came from building s.p.a.cecraft, therefore he didn’t understand a word Amos said.

However, Dr. Amos didn’t say anything more. He just looked at the clock on the wall and said.

“It has to do with our time.”

…

On January 29th, Trump officially took office.

On the podium, Trump, in a suit, excitedly delivered his impa.s.sioned inauguration speech to his supporters below the stage and the media.

“Thank you the people of our country, the people of the world, thank you.”

“On this great day today, we have transferred power from Capital to the hands of the people, that is, yours.”

“For a long time, the fruits of our labor have been taken by a small group of people, and the cost has to be borne by all of our citizens. Capital is thriving, Wall Street is making a lot of money, and our people have not shared the wealth. They use the interests of one group of people to buy the votes from another group, flaunting the so-called political correctness to change their image. And this is why our welfare is getting higher and higher, but life is getting worse and worse, and there is fewer and fewer job opportunities. The economy is deteriorating, and countless factories are closing…”

“It’s time to change everything. Get those lazy refugees out of our country, send criminals who crossed the border illegally to where they belong, and say no to the barbaric third world gangsters.”

“…Thank you again, thank you for choosing me, and I will lead this country back to greatness, thank you!”

After the transfer of power was completed, Trump nominated the cabinet members of the new government within a week and formed his own leaders.h.i.+p team. Including the former Secretary of State Kerry, the current Secretary of Defense Carter, all officials had gone through a major change in this power s.h.i.+ft.

Oil tyc.o.o.n Rex Tillerson was appointed as the new Secretary of State; James Mattis, a war hawk among the war hawks and a retired Marine Corps Four-Star General, was appointed as the new Secretary of Defense; Steve Bannon, who served as the soul of Trump campaign team, transformed from a far-right media executive chairman to the Chief Strategist and Senior Adviser of the President…

From the perspective of the composition of the cabinet, apart from a few positions reserved for the supporters of the Republican Party, Trump used the Secretary of State to repair the tense relations.h.i.+p with Wall Street while at the same time, added a war hawk into his team.

Finally, as promised earlier, he made Xin the first stop of his diplomatic visits and revealed to the media that the “Colombia”, “UA military in Nippon”, “s.p.a.ce resource development”, and the most sensitive issue of “alliance members.h.i.+p” would be discussed in the upcoming meeting.

While surprised by the efficiency of the new UA President, the outside world shared a pessimistic view about his ability to solve problems.

However, there were still some voices that had a sliver of hope.

What if the dream did come true?

What if the Earth Defense Alliance returned to the UN framework?

What if…

There were no what-ifs.

Just three days before Trump’s visit to Xin, Celestial and the UA increased their troops in South and North Colombia by 100,000 respectively, and added a bundle of dry firewood to the burning stove in Colombia.

Before it started, a layer of gloom had already shadowed this meeting.

And, compared to a negotiation, it was more like a final showdown.
