Chapter 384: Returning to Ancestral Roots!
Not only among the lunar people, but even in ancient Earth, people initially believed that their world was flat, leading to many amusing misunderstandings.
An individual's field of vision determined their cognitive boundaries.
Lunar people couldn't see distant landscapes, hence they thought that only their imdiate surroundings could sustain them. Perhaps a few adventurous lunar individuals attempted exploration, but if their endeavors were unsuccessful, it could have led them to believe that the rest of the moon was uninhabitable. This mindset persisted until now.
If Su Chen hadn't appeared, the lunar people might have either been wiped out by the river of ti or produced a heroic figure who guided them off the moon.
However, the latter possibility was highly unlikely.
When Su Chen, through the Red Alert Soldiers, inford the Old Man that there were two billion humans on Earth, and at the peak, their population had reached nearly a hundred billion, the Old Man was utterly astonished.
Given his mathematical capacity, he couldn't fathom the concept of two billion or a hundred billion. In his eyes, a hundred thousand people were already a great number.
Usually, in the eyes of the lunar people, a population exceeding five thousand would constitute a large tribe. Smaller tribes like his, with only around twenty people, were quite common.
After discussing for a while, the Soldier finally asked, "Do you wish to return to Earth and reunite with your ancestral roots?"
"Can... can we really go back?"
Even though they had never actually seen Earth, in the hearts of the lunar people, their roots still resided there. They had often dread about how wonderful it would be if they could return to Earth.
Now, the opportunity was right before them, and they were at a loss for what to do.
After a while, their emotions stabilized, and the Old Man said, "Of course we want to go back, but I can't represent the chiefs of the other tribes."
"That's not a problem; we will handle it. Would you like to go up now with us, or should we wait for everyone to co together?" the Soldier inquired.
"Go up? Are you suggesting we can go up? Won't we die shortly after reaching the surface because of the lack of oxygen?" The Old Man knew that there was no oxygen on the surface, and if they went up, they would perish quickly.
"Of course you can, as long as you're willing."
The Old Man eagerly nodded. He had long grown tired of this place, but aside from here, he had nowhere else to go. Now that an opportunity had presented itself, he couldn't possibly let it slip away.
As for whether these people were deceiving him, one shouldn't underestimate soone who could beco a tribe chief. Their insight was not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Or rather, the lunar people's eyes had mostly degraded due to the prolonged lack of sunlight, making them essentially blind, even though their eye sockets were still present.
He was relying on his intuition!
Undeniably, the lunar people had lost the ability to see light, but their hearing and perception abilities were much stronger than humans'. This kind of perception was sowhat akin to Psychic powers, albeit with slight differences.
The Old Man could sense that their strength wasn't superior to his, but the objects they held posed a significant threat to him.
Most importantly, he could sense that they harbored no malice toward them. That was the primary reason he was able to relax.
Leaving behind the place he had lived in for a lifeti, the Old Man felt a pang of reluctance. However, upon learning that they could return to Earth, all traces of that reluctance vanished.
Their ancestors had originally been humans from Earth. It was just that after living on the moon for so long, they had beco what they called lunar people.
Escorted by the five Red Alert Soldiers, the group of over twenty lunar people gradually approached the tunnel they had co down from.
When they were drilling the tunnel, Su Chen had considered the possibility that there might be a self-sustaining oxygen-rich environnt below. Consequently, he had ordered a structure to be built above the tunnel entrance to create a base here. This base would serve as one of the main research facilities for studying the moon and as a passage for the lunar people to Earth.
After a period of ti, the group of lunar people erged onto the moon's surface. It was no longer a realm of darkness but a realm of light.
Moreover, Su Chen had arranged nurous shielding devices around the area. These devices shielded against free-roaming Psychic powers. He couldn't have Yuri and Libra dealing with it all the ti.
"Is this the surface? It doesn't seem much different from below," one of the n remarked after experiencing it.
"This area was specially constructed. It has a self-contained oxygen environnt and adjusted gravity, similar to Earth's environnt," the Soldier explained.
Speaking of gravity, Su Chen noticed sothing strange. Underground on the moon, gravity was nearly the sa as Earth's, but on the surface, it was slightly weaker than Earth's. What was going on?
"Could it have sothing to do with those free-roaming Psychic powers? Why didn't I know that Psychic powers could influence gravity?" Su Chen was perplexed.
Whatever the cause, Su Chen wasn't too concerned. Now that he had found the lunar people, his first course of action was, of course... to take pictures and post them on his social dia.
Since the communication technology had advanced to the 4G era, various apps had erged, all produced by the Red Alert group. They imitated so of the popular apps from the pre-Apocalypse era, including the social dia platform "Wei Xin Monts."
Taking photos, adding captions, and clicking "send"
all in one swift motion!
At that mont, everyone with Su Chen's Wei Xin signal heard a ringing sound. This was a sound they paid special attention to, as only one person was worthy of their attention
Emperor Su Chen!
Emperor Kong took out his phone and opened the notification, nearly spraying it all out.
He saw nine pictures, each one providing a close-up shot of a lunar person's distinct facial features, emphasizing the stark differences from ordinary humans.
Moreover, Su Chen had added a caption: "Accidentally found a few lunar people. Anyone in need of a partner from a different race? I can provide a cross-species matchmaking opportunity for free."
All those who saw Su Chen's ssage had twitching mouths.
Sovereign Su, our aesthetic sense hasn't beco that morbid yet. Let alone appearance, how could we date soone from a different race?
After a round of sarcasm, they suddenly realized
Su Chen had found the lunar people!
"Sovereign Su, where are you?"
"Oh, I'm on the far side of the moon. Interested in seeing the lunar people?" Su Chen imdiately deciphered their intentions.
After all, the lunar people were fundantally different from the Yan Yun Star people. They were a different form of Humans, shaped by an entirely distinct environnt. If it were ancient tis, they would be treated as monsters, not least due to their striking differences.
"Sovereign Su understands us well," several Emperors laughed.
"Wait a mont, and I'll have soone pick you up. The Psychic powers here are beyond the average person's resistance. That won't be a problem for you."
After a while, four Human Emperors arrived at the scene. In a short span of ti, they had established a base here, all thanks to the Mobile Construction Vehicle (MCV).
Yes, Su Chen had constructed a sub-base here.
With the core, he could act so capriciously. Bases would be established anywhere!
