The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

The man answered the question posed to him by the sphere with a respectful tone.

[Does Feng Taylor believe that Cheng Xin is harmful to him?]

We've investigated Cheng Xin's background. Aside from being Yun Tianming's recommender in the Bunker Project, she has no other special identity or special relationship with anyone. In this era, the only person she can have a deep connection with is Yun Tianming.

The man smiled. "It's hard for us to guess what Feng Taylor is thinking. If we could see through him so easily, he wouldn't be qualified to be a Wallfacer."

"Actually, there is one aspect here that can be analyzed."

“Cheng Xin was a person from two centuries ago. She lived in the same era as Feng Taylor. In that era, if Feng Taylor thought Cheng Xin was a threat to him, he would have not hesitated to find a way to assassinate her, but he did not do so.”

"In fact, Feng Taylor had never shown such obvious hostility towards Cheng Xin in the past two centuries. It was only in this era, or rather in the time after the Doomsday War, that he gradually began to show it."

"This means that Feng Taylor believes that it is harmful for Cheng Xin to awaken from hibernation in this era, but not necessarily in another era."

The man paused in his analysis, then respectfully offered his advice to the sphere.

"Lord, I suggest that Cheng Xin be awakened."

“We all know that Wallfacers are good at hiding their true intentions. Feng Taylor’s plan is definitely not just what we know on the surface. He is probably planning something in secret. Cheng Xin’s existence is precisely what blocks his plan that has not yet surfaced. If Cheng Xin is awakened, he can use her to force Feng Taylor to reveal his hidden plan.”

After a moment of silence, a line of text appeared on the sphere.

What if things don't turn out the way you expected?

Seeing this, the man smiled and replied, "That won't affect you at all. Cheng Xin is just an ordinary person. If you had to say, she's just that she looks more in line with human aesthetics, making it easier for men to be attracted to her. What could she possibly do to harm you, who are four light-years away? Why not give it a try?"

“My suggestion is just in case. If Feng Taylor’s hidden plan is aimed at you, then it would be very dangerous. As you know, Feng Taylor is a complete madman. Even when facing a home planet inhabited by hundreds of billions of people, he can order the fleet to bombard it in orbit without hesitation.”

"I urge you to be more vigilant in this matter, especially regarding Yun Tianming, who is involved in the Ladder Project. I do not want you to be in any danger."

【I see. 】

……

The equalization of wealth on Earth and Mars is nearing its end. Under strong policy pressure, some people may take advantage of loopholes and deliberately incur debt to increase their wealth, but their total assets will remain below the average, keeping the wealth gap at a relatively low level.

Looking at the administrative reports sent from Earth and Mars, Lin Feng nodded.

"Very good, the wealth of Earth and Mars has been almost liquefied and evenly distributed."

"The rest of the administrative work will be handled by the Earth government. As long as they comply with the regulations we provide, we don't need to worry about them too much."

Lin Feng's words caused the Taylor faction members who were reporting to hesitate.

"Won't this allow some people to exploit loopholes?"

Lin Feng waved his hand, "No matter what era or what system is adopted, there will always be people who take advantage of loopholes, just like the increase in entropy in the universe. It's not a big deal, as long as there aren't too many of them."

“The environments of Earth and Mars are different from those of space. The administrative model of space cities cannot be directly transferred to Earth and Mars. It is easier to let the locals handle things that are adapted to local conditions.”

"As long as you keep a close eye on them and prevent them from developing into the extreme wealth gap they once were, that will be fine."

Subsequent administrative reforms can only be left to Earth and Mars to carry out themselves, because the environments in space and on Earth are different. Space is more isolated, which leads to stronger cohesion among the people. On Earth, people are more relaxed and there are more opportunists.

Moreover, space and the ground are physically different.

“Understood. Well, besides this, there’s another matter I need to report to you,” the Taylor faction member said.

As he spoke, a report appeared in Lin Feng's presence. Upon reading its contents, Lin Feng's expression shifted rapidly, first filled with anger, then barely suppressing a smile, and finally becoming expressionless.

"A traitor among the Trisolarans in the human world? Me?" Lin Feng pointed to himself with a playful expression.

A member of the Taylor faction replied, "There seems to be quite a bit of public opinion suggesting that you made some kind of deal with the pacifists within the Trisolarans a long time ago, and after successfully stopping the invaders' attack, you began to trisolaranize humanity."

Lin Feng scoffed, "Their imaginations are truly rich. They made me a 'must-tell' TV series before, and this time they've directly conjured up a Three-Body Peace Faction in my mind."

The Taylor group members on Mars hesitated for a moment before explaining.

"The pacifists do exist. Through communication between humans and the Trisolaran envoys, it was learned that over the course of two centuries, there have been disagreements among the Trisolarans regarding their attitudes toward humanity. The disagreement lies in how to ultimately deal with humanity. One group believes that humanity should be absorbed, and that humanity's schemes are worth incorporating into the Trisolaran civilization. The other group believes that humanity should be completely exterminated, and that the insects are not worthy of being compared with the Trisolarans. The pacifists refer to the former."

After the explanation, the Taylor group members on Mars cautiously inquired.

"Should we intervene in public opinion?"

Lin Feng thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No need. Why should we interfere? It's nothing to begin with. Let them say what they want."

“We don’t have time to worry about these things right now. We should focus our main energy on scientific research and the survival of humanity. If you think those people are too noisy and affecting your work efficiency, then make them physically shut up.”

Right now, the continuation of humanity is the top priority, and Lin Feng has no interest in what rumors these people are spreading.

After explaining the situation, Lin Feng ended the communication.

However, the Taylor group members who were sent to Mars and Earth are still communicating.

“Mr. Taylor has agreed,” said a member of the Taylor faction on Mars.

"Huh? Does that mean you agree?"

The member of the Taylor system on Earth was momentarily stunned. How could he remember that during the exchange just now, when asked if he wanted to take action, Mr. Taylor had given a clear negative answer?

"Fool, Mr. Taylor gave us the standard for whether something affects work, isn't that consent?"

"Mr. Taylor said that work comes first and everything else is secondary, which means... as long as it doesn't affect the mission schedule, we'll make them suffer as much as possible, because they are affecting our work progress."

The explanation from the Taylor series members on Mars who were disappointed and frustrated.

The members of the Taylor system on Earth slapped their foreheads, suddenly realizing the truth.

"So that's how it is!"

Chapter 276 What Luo Ji Expected

"No, I disagree with this." Lin Feng objected in an unquestionable tone.

At the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference, Earth, Mars, the Space City Federation, the Space Force, and other human political entities besides the Taylor system advocated for the termination of Luo Ji's qualification as the Swordholder.

Increase the number of Swordholders within the solar system, so that each human political entity has one Swordholder.

This was not done to target the Trisolarans, but rather to target the Taylor system, or rather, to balance the political power within the solar system and force the Taylor system to back down.

On Lin Feng's side, due to the multi-deterrence and binding strategy, there are multiple Swordholders who will obey Lin Feng's orders.

Human forces such as the Space Force, Mars, Earth, and the Space City Federation do not have such deterrent dominance. Although Luo Ji wields a sword, he listens to no one, and because of the launch switch in Luo Ji's hand, no one dares to provoke Luo Ji while he is wielding the sword.

In human political systems, the governments of Earth and Mars have shown a strong desire to increase the number of Swordholders.

Having been threatened by the Taylor regime with overwhelming force, a strong sense of crisis constantly loomed over them, and the two local governments urgently needed a weapon that could give them a great sense of security.

Therefore, the governments of Earth and Mars both thought of a deterrence system. They each needed a swordholder who could absolutely obey the orders of their superiors, rather than a swordholder like Luo Ji who represented all of humanity.

The Earth representative asked with dissatisfaction, "Why are you objecting? This is also a good outcome for Mr. Luo Ji; he just wants to live an ordinary life."

"Losing the qualification to be the sword wielder is exactly what Luo Ji wanted."

Lin Feng raised an eyebrow. He admitted that the other party had spoken Luo Ji's thoughts, but that was all. These were not the words Lin Feng wanted to hear.

Lin Feng asked directly, "How do I know if the Swordholders you've chosen are reliable? If a group of people who pose no threat to the Trisolaran world become Swordholders, the consequences will be disastrous. It would be better to continue letting Luo Ji wield the sword for now."

At this moment, the representative of the Space Force gave Lin Feng a reply.

"Luo Ji's deterrent power is decreasing. His happiness with his family will reduce his deterrent power. If we want to maintain his deterrent power, we need to prepare a secret room for him and isolate him from the world."

"I believe Mr. Taylor, you should also understand that this approach is unfair to Luo Ji; it is a cruel torture to him, both physically and mentally."

"With this approach, Luo Ji might one day have a mental breakdown and press the launch button. The safety of the two worlds must not be placed on this balance that could collapse at any time."

If a normal human being does not engage in information exchange with other human beings for six months, they may lose their language ability and even develop mental illnesses as a result.

Humans are social animals, and communication is in our nature. Suppressing this nature is to violate our own physiological instincts, and the consequences are very serious.

Lin Feng still remembered a story he had heard in his previous life, the truth of which he did not know. A determined explorer responded to scientific research and lived alone in an underground cave for several years. This experiment was originally intended to understand the social experiment of humans after leaving human society.

As a result, when the explorer was brought up from the underground cave several years later, he was already mentally unstable, had severe communication difficulties, and was suspected of having a serious mental illness, behaving like an animal.

To be honest, if Lin Feng hadn't read the original novel and known how capable Luo Ji was, he wouldn't have believed that Luo Ji could endure such torment.

Therefore, Lin Feng began to make plans.

"Chairman, I request a short recess of a few minutes. There are some important matters I need to understand," Lin Feng proposed to the rotating chairman of the Solar System Fleet Joint Conference.

The rotating chairman turned his gaze to the representatives, and after receiving their consent, he nodded in response to Lin Feng.

"can."

Lin Feng immediately opened a pop-up window and issued orders to Edith, who was still on a mission on Earth and had not yet returned.

"Edith, immediately check Cheng Xin's hibernation records to see if she has awakened from hibernation."

"Ok."

Edith readily agreed, connecting her computer terminal to the hibernation center's network without hesitation or doubt to check Cheng Xin's hibernation status.

"She's still hibernating. Do I need to take any immediate action?" Edith asked Lin Feng for instructions.

She asked this question not because she saw the danger Cheng Xin posed, but because Lin Feng had repeatedly mentioned it and was very wary of it. Edith, who chose to trust Lin Feng's foresight, thought it would be more straightforward to eliminate the other party directly.

In this world, only the dead can guarantee that no waves will rise.

“No need, she’s still hibernating, so there’s no need for that.” Lin Feng rejected Edith’s suggestion.

The current state of human civilization is very different from the original work. The biggest difference lies in the multi-deterrence system. Even if Cheng Xin's deterrence level is very low and she doesn't dare to press the launch switch, it doesn't matter. The other swordholders of the Taylor system can still deter the Trisolarans and ensure their own broadcasting capabilities.

To prevent humanity from repeating the mistakes of the original story, Lin Feng has put a lot of effort into targeting Cheng Xin.

Firstly, Cheng Xin's political foundation has become more feminized. This is because Lin Feng integrated the education of all humans in the entire solar system and deliberately designed cruel virtual space exercises for competition, turning those weak and effeminate men into tough and ruthless men. Cheng Xin no longer has enough grassroots support for her.

Without a strong grassroots support, even if Cheng Xin returns to the original story, it will be difficult for her to successfully run for the Swordholder.

Then comes hibernation. Hibernators are no different from the dead in society, and 'dead people' naturally cannot run for the Swordholder.

Finally, there were the series of preventative measures taken after Cheng Xin woke up.

First, let Cheng Xin accumulate a mountain of debt, then assign her a huge amount of work, keeping her busy from morning till night, leaving her no personal time to think about things like love, responsibility, or sainthood. Let her live her life as an ordinary person, and the universe and humanity will be saved.

Of course, Lin Feng's considerations were mainly due to the original story, and he wanted to be on the safe side. With his current power and status, Cheng Xin was just a very insignificant figure.

It would be far too easy for the Taylors to kill someone.

Lin Feng organized his thoughts, cleared his throat, and said, "Regarding the proposal to change the number of Swordholders and to cancel Luo Ji's Wallfacer qualification, our Taylor faction can agree, but there is a condition."

"Please explain." The Martian government representative gestured.

Lin Feng replied, "We must ensure that the candidates for Swordholder possess sufficient deterrent power."

How can this be proven?
