In the control room, Lu Zhiyu was standing next an optical projection, the sub-brain David. Standing behind Lu Zhiyu were the lead of the starship program, Gu Chaoran, Fabio Rossi from the Robot Manufacturing Research Laboratory, the original starship designer Molly, and some experts in engineering, computer technology, dynamics and materials science.
These eight people were responsible for the design and construction of the starship Truth. They were members of its management committee. Lu Zhiyu came up with the starship’s name, which was also the name of a spacecraft in a movie that Lu Zhiyu had watched a very long time ago and liked very much.
The construction had finally been completed. Truth could accommodate up to 100,000 people. It also was able to store a vast amount of materials and energy reserves. At present, there were only 2,362 people onboard, most of whom were foreign employees.
“Boss, you said that the gravity field device and some transformation devices were still not in place. As such, the current starship cannot enter space,” Gu Chaoran said.
Lu Zhiyu nodded, but did not comment further on the doubts that had just been raised by Gu Chaoran. “You have a week to prepare. Everyone can leave Truth with your family. Then, after one week, those who stay will enter the space.”
Gu Chaoran then said to Lu Zhiyu, “Mr. Nicholas Debye of the Vatican Clan has made an appointment to see you tomorrow. He will be accompanied by two important people.”
Lu Zhiyu glanced at Gu Chaoran, who lowered his head and dared not speak any further. He had heard about Nicholas from the images about the Antarctic event that had been circulated on the Internet.
Although those images had since been deleted, there were still a number of members of the Antarctic base station that had posted images online, which was causing a tremendous sensation.
After seeing them, Gu Chaoran was convinced that his boss was probably from a powerful alien civilization beyond all humans’ imaginations. As such, his power was most likely no different than the gods’ in the eyes of humans.
At the end of the meeting, all of the people present seemed worried as they all left. After everyone had left the control room, Lu Zhiyu asked David, “Are you ready?”
“Yes, Truth’s conversion has been completed,” David replied.
Lu Zhiyu, like the sun, emitted lights and floated in the hall. Wherever he went, it became shiny. The starship was affected the most by his presence.
The starship itself was a huge alchemy lifeform. The main structure of its body was metal cells, but these were not mythical metal cells. At this moment, Truth was made up of regular metal cells.
“Divine life form template generated! Template inserted!” David emitted a mechanical sound and inserted the pre-designed starship divine life form template into the metal cells.
Lu Zhiyu integrated the curvature engine, gravity field device, and the protective cover that he had removed from the previous Atlantis Hope into Truth. These three devices then activated the super power of the divine life form template in Truth, which could be freely controlled at will and could even evolve with the other changes in Truth.
Truth now had a mythical alchemy lifeform. So, when it was hit hard, it could self-heal.
In this transformation, the curvature engine allowed Truth to achieve interstellar travel, even without the need for a large number of antimatter fuels, which provided energy for the curvature engine to generate a force field. This became a natural ability for Truth.
With the curvature engine, Truth was able to enter the space, instead of using the magnetic plasma propeller that used lithium hydroxide as a fuel. This was a great achievement, as otherwise, it would take a hundred years for Truth to leave the solar system.
Conventionally, if the speed reached the speed of light, the quality of matter must be infinite. But, with the curvature engine, the combination of negative energy and positive energy could generate the energy field that let the space in front of the field be compressed. In this way, a new space would be created behind the field, pushing the starship forward and allowing it to reach the speed of light.
Also, the gravity field device generated gravity inside the starship. So, all those people inside the starship were living just like they would on earth. As long-term weightlessness would kill red blood cells, destroy muscles, and hearts, only with gravity could people live in the starship for any length of time.
Also, the gravity field could avoid the situation that people inside couldn’t withstand the tremendous pressure that was caused by the starship’s acceleration. This was because the protective cover was equipped with plasma emitters in the front and at the rear, which emitted the plasma shield to cover the entire starship. At the same time, the high temperature generated by the protective cover could also be managed by the plasma.
These three technologies were all born in Hope, which had completely surpassed the earth’s civilization. These new technologies were what reassured Lu Zhiyu of the hopeful future of space journeys.
“What’s that? Where is the light coming from?” Lu Zhiyu wondered aloud.
The light shimmered throughout Truth. Many staff members in the central residential area found that the sun overhead became glaring in an instant.
The lights came from all directions. Meanwhile, Truth was undergoing tremendous changes…
