Besides the completely enclosed city of "Atlantis" with the "Skylight," other areas within the Life Space are temporarily unsuitable for life. Establishing a massive biological maintenance and circulation system is not a simple project.
Even though there is another Satellite City, the number of plants inside is still insufficient to support the breathing needs of over a hundred people. It can only be put on hold for now, with the oxygen it produces used for its own growth, allowing it to be self-sufficient.
After Chen Fei reviewed the data brought back by the drones, he found that the collected asteroids and other resources were influenced by mass and gravity, gathering together and beginning to form continental plate-like features spontaneously. Due to the unique shape of the encapsulated space, a core might not appear, but a mantle lava layer is slowly forming. Earthquakes and volcanic activity will beco frequent, mixing various materials together, with clear air rising and impurities sinking.
Originally thought to require the help of many Ability Users to transform the Life Space, it now seems largely unnecessary.
As long as the gathered materials are sufficient, the phenona of natural creation will appear on their own.
The condition of the Life Space is better than expected. All that remains is to wait for that seed to grow strong!
The key to making the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space habitable lies in the seed given to him by McKenny from the "Seed Nest." When it cos to biotechnology, there's nothing like the "Sagali" civilization. Although McKenny did not reveal anything, each step has already laid the foundation, requiring only a logical progression.
With Chen Fei's intellect, he naturally knows what to do next. The "Lord of the Sky," Lin Mo, and McKenny from the "Seed Nest" plotted against him, but it's not entirely to his detrint. Whether or not he can seize this opportunity depends on him.
S-Class Space Ability User Heseman Brown saw Chen Fei standing in front of the three-dinsional holographic projection interface, pondering for a long ti, and couldn't help but ask, "How much longer will it take?" He was the only one who would ask; Old Party, as long as he is fed, doesn't care about anything beyond his own work.
If it takes ten, or even twenty years, his family can probably wait that long.
Blue Star Civilization is already prepared, successfully thwarting the Wormhole Cloud's assault and isolating the primary threat outside the Solar System. It's unlikely the situation will suddenly deteriorate as predicted by Louis Landon.
Chen Fei's forehead showed a slight hint of sweat as the Artificial Intelligence AI calculated rapidly and provided an estimate.
"At least a year!"
The speed of lava formation beneath the cold rock layers is fast; it only requires temperatures of 900-1400 degrees Celsius to lt the rock. The bottom of the mantle might form a core-like substance due to the enrichnt of heavy elents, maintaining a state of motion due to geothermal heat. After complete stabilization, the crust's thickness will remain around 40 kiloters, with geological movents far less than that of Blue Star, given the unique nature of the Life Space compared to a proper planet.
"Then that's fine!"
Heseman Brown breathed a sigh of relief. Waiting for a year wasn't an issue, and this was good news.
"Later, send probes to the Keppler Belt; you take charge, and I won't go."
It takes ti to select heavy-elent asteroids, a task that can be handled by an S-Class Space Ability User. Chen Fei didn't want to waste his energy on this. His efforts were better spent evolving more war weapons, as having more military supplies was beneficial for preparedness.
"Leave it to ; I'll ensure the task is completed!"
The S-Class Space Ability User patted his chest assuredly and continued to ask, "Have you considered the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter?"
In the dense region of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter's orbits, there are over 500,000 asteroids primarily composed of carbonaceous, silicate, and tal materials. Thе mоst up-tо-dаtе vеrsiоn is оn
"The celestial bodies there are too small and too close to Blue Star. Over-collection could easily disrupt the gravitational stability within the Star System. If an asteroid's orbit shifts toward Blue Star, the consequences could be disastrous."
Chen Fei shook his head, placing more confidence in the resource-rich Keppler Belt.
The Asteroid Belt is about 2.17-3.64 astronomical units from the Sun, and anything affecting it would have broad implications. The largest body is Ceres with a diater of about 1000 kiloters. If it suddenly disappeared, the Blue Star astronomical community would be in uproar, akin to the Moon being stolen; the Moon's diater is just over three thousand kiloters.
Compared to the Keppler Belt, located at least 30 astronomical units from the Sun and even farther than Neptune, it's 20 tis wider than the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter and 20 to 200 tis more massive. It's possible to collect at will without imdiate concerns about threatening Blue Star; the great distance provides Blue Star Civilization with ample ti and space to deal with any unexpected ss made by Chen Xiao'er.
"Understood!"
Heseman Brown imdiately grasped Chen Fei's thinking; anything that could pose the slightest threat to Blue Star is not allowed.
"Alright, let's head back now!"
With a thought from Chen Fei, the next mont, the three of them instantly returned to the cabin of the Small Flying Ship. This spatial movent was not a Space Series skill but an operation based on a space series Alchemical Artifact like the "Boundary Pearl."
The Life Space probably needs a few hundred more satellites to establish a complete satellite network. Subtracting the ground thickness of 100 kiloters, and with gravity reference based on Blue Star standards, a remaining height of 400 kiloters above the ground requires only a slight thrust to maintain the satellites' static altitude and even anchor it directly at the boundary of the Mist.
To stock resources for the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space, Chen Fei can fully use the reserves in the "Spatial Branding" for cover. Although the Life Space is vast, the storage space connected through "Spatial Branding" is equally significant.
Upon returning to the real space, the strange connection with the seedling was imdiately restored.
Chen Fei, as if witnessing it firsthand, felt he could "see" the biology experts swarming around him, conducting various scans and experints. Precision instrunt scan rays shone on the tender green shoot erging from the eggshell. He instantly experienced a subtle tingling sensation in kind.
With a thought, the seedling shot upward, sprouting thick branches. The fleshy cotyledons thinned significantly, yet more leaves grew. The eggshell surface cracked, and nurous roots erged from the bottom. So roots even penetrated the base of the experintal platform, effortlessly piercing quartz vessels and tal components.
The seed from McKenny's "Seed Nest" is no ordinary entity, requiring resources entirely different from typical plants.
The seedling's sudden change caused a commotion within the laboratory, with experts becoming excited and eager to discover sothing significant enough to shock human civilization from this young plant.
