Chapter 112: Chapters 112, 113 Highlights of the Plan (Additional updates for Ghost灬Emperor and subscribers) Chapter 112: Chapters 112, 113 Highlights of the Plan (Additional updates for Ghost灬Emperor and subscribers) In the cabin, Barry was dissecting the corpse of a mutant creature.
This was not something they had hunted, but rather a mutated fish they had bought from local fishermen before their arrival.
Reportedly, when it was caught, it tore through the net, injuring someone, and the sailors had to fire dozens of bullets to finally kill it!
“What a pity, it would have been better to have a live specimen,” Barry thought.
When he used a cutter to open its head, he suddenly discovered something seemed to be wriggling inside the brain tissue.
“A parasite, or a small marine organism?” Barry carefully covered it with a glass jar and secured it.
From the brain tissue crawled out a milky white, long worm with a large head, and upon closer inspection, it had countless fine hairs on its body.
“What kind of worm is this?” As a marine biologist, Barry was familiar with various marine organisms, but he had never seen a worm before.
When the worm saw a human, it immediately burrowed back into the brain tissue. Barry was shocked to find that it could actually control the biological cells and ram the jar lid!
*Could it be that it was controlling the mutated fish all along, and is it related to the fish’s mutation?*
Barry quickly tightened the lid, realizing that he might have discovered the secret of this mutant creature!
*He didn’t plan to tell anyone about this, because those people wouldn’t take it seriously, or they might even claim the discovery as their own research achievement.*
In Shen Zhou, He Xingzhou had ended his vacation and returned to the Tower Research Institute.
The first thing he did was to brief everyone on the current situation.
In the conference hall of the underground section of the research institute, members of the Tower Research Institute sat attentively.
He Xingzhou said, “Ladies and gentlemen, the situation is even worse than we initially predicted!”
“The Zerg have already begun migrating and have reached our nearby waters!”
“Among them, highly intelligent leaders have emerged, and their communities and forces are rapidly expanding beneath the sea!”
“In two to three years, they will pose a threat to the mainland!”
The crowd, having read the materials, was filled with shock. Two to three years was actually a very short time.
*For instance, He Xingzhou’s recent chip research alone had already taken more than half a year!*
“So we need to pick up the pace!” He Xingzhou announced loudly, “From today on, I declare that, starting now, the Steel Great Wall Plan is officially launched!”
“We will build an 18,000-kilometer-long steel wall along the coast of Shen Zhou to ensure the safety of Shen Zhou!”
“To cooperate with the Xuanwu Plan, we will temporarily not announce this plan and will claim to the public that it is for the construction of a coastal super high-speed rail!”
“Finally, it’s about to start, Mr. He, we’ve been preparing for more than a year!” A senior engineer stood up; he was Zhu Changfeng, the Level 2 executor of the Xuanwu Plan and an Academician of the National Academy of Engineering.
“Indeed, over the past year, we have been surveying and mapping, obtaining detailed data of the nearby coastline!” Zhan Jinhuan, an engineer from the Construction Group, stood up. He had previously been in charge of the transformation of magnetic roads, while also doing preliminary work for the Steel Great Wall.
“It’s time to showcase our skills!” Some researchers had been eagerly anticipating this for a long time.
“Good,” He Xingzhou said, very satisfied. Over the past year, the Tower Research Institute had indeed made significant preparations.
He said, “Next, I will outline the five major tasks that we must accomplish in a short time before announcing the Zerg crisis and the Xuanwu Plan to the world!”
“The first,” he looked toward the biology research team, where Academician Pan Yan and her team sat, along with Jiang Chan, a junior alumna familiar to He Xingzhou, and his previous senior, Wu Rui.
“is to decipher the Zerg language and complete the ‘Zerg Species Dictionary.’ This will be led by Academician Pan Yan and her team.”
Pan Yan stood up and said, “We will complete it before the plan is announced!”
“The second,” He Xingzhou looked at Zhu Changfeng and said, “is to develop the super high-speed rail, plan the construction of the Steel Great Wall, and commence work as soon as possible. This task is assigned to Academician Zhu Changfeng and his team.”
“We guarantee to complete the mission!” Zhu Changfeng shouted, full of vigor.
“The third,” He Xingzhou said, “is to develop quantum chips and quantum computers to create a super military system.”
“This will be undertaken by Academician Min Jie of the Quantum Science Research Institute and his team.”
“We will spare no effort!” Min Jie assured.
“The fourth,” He Xingzhou said, “is to build a global satellite network with network communication and global monitoring capabilities. This will be led by Comrade Hou Jinxiu from the National Space Administration and his team.”
Despite his gentle-sounding name, Hou Jinxiu was a true man of action. He had served in the Air Force before transitioning to the space agency, where he participated in multiple major projects.
“Mission guaranteed!” Hou Jinxiu saluted.
“The fifth task!” He Xingzhou looked at a familiar figure in the audience, his professor from the Science and Technology University, Professor Zhang Boyan.
He Xingzhou said, “That is to research nuclear energy and build multiple nuclear power plants along the Steel Great Wall! This project will be led by my professor, Professor Zhang Boyan!”
“Understood, we will ensure the energy supply for the Steel Great Wall!” Zhang Boyan said solemnly.
At the same time, he was filled with gratitude toward He Xingzhou. He knew that such a task, even with his status in academia, would be hard to secure the leadership position.
By entrusting him with the task, He Xingzhou showed him full trust.
After announcing the five plans, He Xingzhou said, “Five projects, proceeding simultaneously! We wish ourselves success!”
