Chapter 378: Chapter 377 Alien Legend
“Why?” the girl asked.
“It’s a simple reason,” Wu Peng made an exaggerated gesture, “Now the ecological balance of the entire planet, after tens to hundreds of millions of years of evolution, has begun to tilt. And we humans want to maintain this already skewed ecological balance—it’s not sothing that can be done in just a re two or three years. Randomly destroying species or adding new ones will actually accelerate the tilt of this balance.”
Humans would only continue to stay on this planet for a short two or three years, without enough energy or manpower to address this issue.
“Moreover, the evolution of the natural environnt, while it has its historical rules, forcibly intervening doesn’t really make much sense. Do you think the lives of the Riley people are important, or is it the lives of other species that are important? Or perhaps the species that will be born later?”
This girl, nad Lena, her eyes unknowingly filled with little stars; she loved listening to Wu Peng ramble on, even if it was complete nonsense.
This is the legendary… typical behavior of negative IQ during the dating period.
The two were deep in conversation when a brawny man with a large fra suddenly sat down in a carefree manner.
Lena exclaid, “Ah… Bro, why are you here?”
“Is this your brother?” Wu Peng’s face instantly turned red, and he said with a trembling voice, “Hello… good.”
He and this youthful and cute girl had been in love for two months, right in the throes of passion. And the man sitting next to them, Lena’s brother, seed to have just co back from the gym, his body steaming with vigor.
Usually, mbers of a small family consist of two males and two females, growing up together from childhood, their relationships like those of brothers and sisters. By age, they are divided into elder brothers, elder sisters, younger brothers, younger sisters, and so on.
Of course, because the relationships are so close, the likelihood of small family mbers marrying each other is not very high… Even though there’s basically no blood relationship between small family mbers and getting married isn’t considered incestuous.
Even if there is a blood relationship, this era doesn’t prohibit marriage between family mbers, since no one has children anyway, so what’s the issue with marriage? But alas, humans have their own genetic defense chanisms, making it difficult to fall in love with soone too close. German Orthopedics was just a small probability event.
Seeing Lena’s brother co over and act as a third wheel, Wu Peng hurriedly changed the subject, “Oh, right, we were also planning on creating an online ga related to the Virtual World about Riley people. I think we should beautify the artwork of the Riley people a bit. According to our human aesthetics, they are a bit ugly. If we can make them look better in the ga, there’s no doubt it would attract more visitors… such changes are allowed.”
“Alright, kid, introduce yourself first. Which organization are you with? How are your grades in university, have you failed any classes? Do you have any records of dishonesty…” the girl’s brother sneered.
As an overly protective brother, he was a thousand tis worried about his little sister!
If these two were to travel in the Virtual World and stay for 15 days at a ti, who knows what might happen… Even if this guy’s job sounded decent, character mattered even more!
“Bro, why, even at dinner, do you have to be a third wheel?”
Lena said unhappily as her brother started prying into personal matters.
The big brother imdiately retorted, “What do you know, I’ve eaten more salt than you’ve eaten rice!”
…
A beautifully planned dinner, of course, was not very enjoyable with an extra-large third wheel watching like a hawk.
Wu Peng returned to his dormitory in a sullen mood. Even with the small family model, an elder brother did not have the right to control his sister’s private life, but he was still considered the closest of kin.
The opinions of mbers within a small family are still quite important.
He was pondering whether he should offer up his “spinster older sister” to satisfy that damn German Orthopedics…
Yes, that’s what he should do, marry off his sister in the process and kill two birds with one stone!
I’m simply a genius!
“Sister, I have so good news to tell you. I’ve t a new handso guy who likes working out, swimming, and playing chess…”
“I’m busy, not interested.”
Wu Peng’s sister, nad Sun Yuting, was a very patient and learned female Ph.D. She was also a cultural worker in the Virtual World, primarily responsible for sorting out the ssy religious materials. The history of the Riley Civilization, spanning tens of millions of years, was indeed too ancient, and the loss of a large amount of data had led to confusion within the civilization about how long it had actually existed.
“This subject… it’s my doctoral thesis!” Sun Yuting murmured, “Don’t bother before this!”
Wu Peng hurriedly praised, “Sis, your brain is really sharp, actually getting a Ph.D…. Unlike a dummy like , I can only be a programr.”
“Of course!”
But as a female doctor, she should also consider the important matters of life! Being in love is quite a happy thing.
Wu Peng held it in his heart, simply not knowing how to put it, his eyes glued to his sister’s computer.
There were so bizarre research topics on it.
Humanity’s current cutting-edge science was developing too slowly. The smartest people often joined major laboratories to study avant-garde theories. There weren’t many of these people, but each one was worth a hundred ordinary ones.
Ordinary people, in comparison, could still find jobs they liked in Kunlun Mountain. For example, research on the Virtual World was a current hot topic, along with atmospheric environntal studies, investigations of mass extinctions, Riley Civilization’s historical studies, religion and civilization, and so on—there was so much content in the world to research…
Governnts and major laboratories were also willing to allocate funds for this.
Finding so research topics was always better than being idle. Although these subjects might not directly enhance the hard power of the entire civilization, they still would increase the soft power, maintain the current cultural atmosphere of the society, and why not do it?
“I have several doctoral topics, but they’re all tough, deducing the duration of this civilization since they had written records, why this kind of historical cycle has occurred, delaying social progress, and what significance it holds for humans… Ah, they’re all so difficult! So very difficult!”
Sun Yuting spent day and night looking at materials, continuing just the sa even when she got ho, as if utterly fascinated.
She was seriously working on this matter, with a Ph.D. from Kunlun Mountain being a high-level honor that couldn’t be compared to the cheap degrees from Earth.
Wu Peng kept nagging, but the two couldn’t connect on the sa wavelength: “Sis, you wouldn’t consider finding a robotic companion, would you? Even though it’s not a bad idea… But I see you, how do you satisfy your physical needs? Such a beautiful and charming girl, if you really choose a robot, it would be better not to find… cough cough…”
“How great it would be to find a boyfriend, of course, he has to be decent, I’ll definitely check that thoroughly! Those jerks would just get slapped twice… I’ve vetted one for you, really!” Wu Peng rambled on, fixated on the idea of offering up his sister for a future of blissful, happy days.
“Wait a minute, I think I’ve made a very strange discovery!” Sun Yuting suddenly said, looking at her computer screen.
