Chapter 125 - Project Noah, the Planet of Life
"Camp Commandant, how did humans explore such stable wormholes in the past?" Ling Jiu could not help but ask.
"Just like the past!"
The camp commandant looked at Ling Jiu. "We will send a robot over first to test the stability and compatibility and the environment on the opposite end of the wormhole."
"Whether the wormhole is really stable?"
"Whether we can pass through it?"
"Is the other side of the wormhole on a planet, or in space?"
"If it's an alien planet, what is the environment of the planet like? Does it allow human survival? Are there any intelligent and high civilizations on it?
"So on and so forth!"
"This series of questions all needed to be carefully explored, you can't be too careful about it."
"After all, compared to the vast universe, humans are just too fragile!"
The camp commandant casually took out a robot dog, and after configuring it for a while, the robot dog leaped into the air and plunged into the colored bubble.
"We can only wait now."
An expectant look appeared in the eyes of the camp commandant. "If the situation on the other side of the wormhole is as Barry said, then Ling Jiu, you have done a great job!"
"Is that so?"
Ling Jiu sniggered.
If it was not for the nanomachines on their body and everything being monitored by the training camp, he might not have been willing to report everything there back to the camp. Perhaps, he would have chosen the same path as Barry.
How nice would it be to take a heaven-like habitable planet for himself? And then take his family and a group of women along...
The skies above were literally the limit.
How nice would it be... to happily lord over a planet?
"I've mentioned to you earlier that we humans are experiencing an unprecedented disaster, and this disaster may cause our extinction, right?"
The camp commandant glanced at Yang Ling'er and Ai Yuhe before saying faintly.
"Yeah, there was that!"
Ling Jiu nodded slightly, while Yang Ling'er and Ai Yuhe were obviously surprised to hear this for the first time. "A disaster?"
"You don't need to know the details!"
The camp commandant waved his hand. "In order to deal with this disaster, the highest echelon of mankind have made a two-pronged preparation. One is to desperately resist, and at the same time, raise potential combat powers to overcome the disaster!"
"On the other hand, just in case, mankind had also set up Project Noah!"
"Project Noah?"
The three of them were dumbstruck.
"Have you heard of Noah's Ark? In the legends, Noah's is a big ship built according to God's instructions."
"The purpose of building the ark was to allow Noah and his family, alongside the various land creatures in the world to avoid the flood."
The camp commandant said. "Project Noah is very similar to the story, and the purpose is to store important creatures and human civilization on Earth in it!"
"And then, when mankind on Earth encounters an extinction event, it could take on the responsibility of keeping our civilization alive."
"However, our Noah's Ark is not on Earth, but instead in deep within space on those habitable planets!"
Ling Jiu held his breath.
"But you also know that our human spaceflight technology has not reached the level of long-distance interstellar travel, so our current target is on that!"
The camp commandant pointed at the wormhole suspended in the air. "This kind of stable Dimensional Passage is our shortcut to the universe beyond, and there are many stable wormholes that lead straight to the habitable planet, and these habitable planets are our Plan B!"
"So, when we heard your conversation with Barry, both the camp commandant and I immediately rushed over.
Jing Biao explained, "The Dimensional Passage is very important, so we have to treat it with plenty of care! Of course, we were also afraid that you would enter the passage rashly and then run into danger!"
"Understood!"
Ling Jiu nodded.
"Ling Jiu, you and the girls had made a great contribution this time. The company will not be stingy with its rewards. Of course, the reward will still depend on the value of this Dimensional Passage.
The camp commandant suddenly smiled. "If this passage leads to a place like what Barry had said, a habitable planet, then the reward will definitely be massive!"
"Is that so?"
Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.
"Ling Jiu, you don't need to doubt what the camp commandant had said!"
Jing Biao smiled and added, "A habitable planet is a treasure of mankind, so any rewards will look insignificant before it!"
"That's right!"
The camp commandant nodded.
At this moment, a buzzing sound rang out, and the camp commandant perked up as he broke into a smile. "Very good, the robot dog is back!"
"Camp commandant, let's have a look. What did it capture I wonder?" Jing Biao asked.
"Okay!"
The camp commandant walked to the robot dog and pressed the back of the robot dog a few times before the metallic casing opened, revealing a card slot.
The camp commandant then pulled out something that looked like a USB drive and then plugged it into the microcomputer.
Ling Jiu, Yang Ling'er, and Ai Yuhe all gathered around as they stared at the microcomputer with a curious look in their eyes.
They will soon find out what was beyond the wormhole.
After cl.i.c.k.i.n.g upon the USB folder, dozens of photos appeared inside it.
While the photos were not yet opened, looking at the thumbnail of the photos, everyone had an excited and anticipant look.
"These photos..."
Jing Biao's eyes lit up. "Colorful, it looked like it had taken shots of a lot of plants?"
"Also, mountains, waterfalls, and big trees!" Ai Yuhe added.
"Everyone, we have a big discovery!"
The camp commandant took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart. His right hand trembled as he clicked on the first photo.
This was a color photograph and seemed to be taken through a colorful tunnel as the entire photo was a dream-like passageway filled with phantasmic light.
"Is this a Dimensional Passage?"
Ling Jiu exclaimed in a hushed voice, as Ai Yuhe and Yang Ling'er's eyes widened.
"That's right!"
The camp commandant clicked onto the second photo, it was still the Dimensional Passage, so was the third and fourth, and when he clicked on the fifth...
It was totally different!"
It was a high-altitude photo!
At a glance, there was an endless forest with white fog floating over it. Even the skies were covered by the fog as the entire area was painted white!
"A habitable planet!"
"It is a habitable planet!"
Jing Biao was so excited he could not control his emotions. "Camp Commandant, the land beyond the wormhole is indeed a habitable planet!"
"A habitable planet!"
The camp commandant too was excited as he tremblingly clicked on the next photo.
This was a close-up photo, and the subject of the shot was a big tree.
It stood more than a hundred meters tall, yet it looked like a giant mushroom or a giant funnel as it stood tall and majestic.
"This is a tree?"
Everyone exclaimed.
The camp commandant opened the next photo, and this was a long-distance shot, with its subject a huge mountain.
More impressively, however, the mountain was floating in midair with lush vegetation covering its surface. There was even a waterfall falling from the top of the mountain.
The peaks were surrounded by white fog and exotic birds, making it picturesque like a wonderland.
"A floating mountain?"
