The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

"The Trisolaran fleet can be reorganized and restructured! A fleet is a group, not an indivisible whole! They can dismantle the original fleet and form several fleets to attack all the industrial fleets simultaneously!"

"That means they'll have to divide their forces! Their combat effectiveness will actually decrease! We can use this to close the technological gap with the Trisolarans!"

The two sides were arguing fiercely, neither able to convince the other. Each side had two permanent members of the Security Council, and neither could do anything about the other.

The United States maintains a neutral stance. Within the US military, there are two voices. The one supporting the Chinese and Russian proposal is not necessarily aligned with China and Russia, but rather because the proposal involves the player fleet that Lin Feng previously proposed. They are all supporters and admirers of Lin Feng.

On the other hand, there are those who firmly oppose escapism.

I'll say it again: if you can run away, why can't I be the one to run away?

Why should your bloodline live on?

Even if the national level solves this problem, there will still be problems at the provincial, municipal, and family levels that need to be addressed.

You have to understand, there are billions of families on Earth, and they all want their bloodline to continue. How can this be solved?

If you can't solve it, you can't treat everyone equally.

The Chinese and Russian representatives looked at Lin Feng, a hint of disappointment flashing in their eyes. They had brought Lin Feng into the meeting in the hope that he would stand on their side and thus overshadow the British and French.

However, Lin Feng remained silent from the start of the meeting, as if he were just an observer.

Little did they know, Lin Feng was suffering in silence; he wanted to support him, but he couldn't.

This proposal was clearly one that could help Zhang Beihai escape, and Lin Feng wholeheartedly agreed.

With an industrial fleet, Zhang Beihai's Natural Selection and the other escaped warships could clearly avoid the tragedy of killing each other. Why would Lin Feng have any reason to oppose such a good thing?

In the original story, with only a few remaining warships, they drifted across stars in the universe. Lin Feng was very clear about what that meant. Did he really think that the scale of light-years between stars was so easy to cross?

To put it more vividly, it's like primitive people built several rickety rafts out of broken planks, which looked like they could be blown apart by a single wave, and they wanted to use them to cross the Pacific Ocean. And then, primitive people actually used these rickety rafts to cross the Pacific Ocean, from Shanghai, China to Los Angeles, USA.

In particular, you also have to consider the singers flying around in the universe, and those alien civilizations that like to play hide-and-seek, which are far more deadly than storms and cyclones in the Pacific Ocean.

In the game's parlance, these surviving humans from the galaxy are truly the luckiest of the lucky, chosen ones.

However, Lin Feng was recently criticized by the public for his escapism. If he now proposes to side with the industrial fleet, the public opinion will probably be unable to suppress him tomorrow.

The media cannot represent public opinion; at most, they can only be considered the mouthpiece of certain people. The public opinion that Lin Feng is concerned about is the thoughts of those at the bottom of society. They are the cornerstone of human civilization, and ETO will definitely make a fuss about this.

After the representatives from various countries temporarily put aside the matter of the industrial fleet, Lin Feng explained another matter.

"I plan to establish a company called 'Star Wanderer' whose main business is to construct various engineering projects in the solar system."

"You're not planning to use this to escape, are you?" the French representative questioned.

The heated debate just now made the British and French representatives very sensitive.

Lin Feng countered, "French representative, someone has to do the space engineering. Otherwise, what about space cities? What about space farms? Are we just not going to build any of these?"

"The purpose of establishing the company is to have a reasonable basis for attracting private capital, thereby realizing the civilian use of space travel, reducing the financial pressure on various countries, and allowing them to focus more on the construction of their space forces."

"The reason why virtual warfare would end up like that is clearly because countries do not pay enough attention to their space forces and are too confident in them, such as the representative of Spain."

As soon as Lin Feng said this, all the representatives subconsciously focused their attention on the Spanish representative.

The Spanish representative looked completely bewildered, his eyes clearly questioning Lin Feng—why did you drag me into your argument with him? Are you trying to embarrass me again?

“Wallfacer Feng Taylor, please be careful with your words.”

The rotating chairman picked up the gavel and tapped it lightly, then looked at Lin Feng on the screen and gave him a stern warning.

"So, you intend to involve civilian forces in space?" the French representative asked.

Lin Feng replied, "It's just about building various space facilities and space cities. If you're not comfortable with that, you can bring this company under the United Nations' name and make it a semi-official, semi-private platform that serves all of humanity."

“Weren’t you all discussing how to ensure the industrial fleet doesn’t desert? I think we should let Xingwang take charge of its management and regularly appoint commanders and operators from Earth. They have feelings for their homeland and won’t desert easily.”

The representatives were once again engaged in discussion. They felt that Lin Feng's method was feasible. If the commanders and operators of the industrial fleet were changed from time to time, it would be difficult for the industrial fleet to reach a consensus.

After all, who doesn't have a family?

As for whether it will affect the stealth of the industrial fleet, there's no point in discussing that. With the existence of sophons, apart from human thought, the entire solar system is transparent to these enemies of humanity.

"So, who will manage this company?" the British representative asked.

Lin Feng replied, "This can be entrusted to the PDC for appointment. The appointment and removal of the person in charge of Xingwang needs to be reviewed by the PDC. You can rest assured about that, right?"

Lin Feng's proposal quickly gained the support of representatives from various countries.

It must be said that the previous virtual war, in which players defeated the space force in such an absurd way, had a huge impact on the thinking of representatives from various countries.

As a result, a significant portion of them shifted from a focus on equipment to a focus on industry. No one would reject an industrial fleet, and the opponents were only worried about the emergence of escapism.

The Star Wanderer Company that Lin Feng mentioned provided a way out for both sides, ensuring that no deserters would abandon humanity with an industrial fleet, while also guaranteeing that humanity could possess an industrial fleet.

……

In the Three-Body game world, scorching red lotus flames burn the earth, and crimson-black karmic fire flows down from the high mountains, forming a crimson-black lake in a low-lying area. There is no life in this lake, only death.

The entire space was shrouded in a crimson curtain, and countless plumes of smoke billowed across the distant horizon, rising into the sky like pillars supporting this hellish landscape.

John von Neumann, hidden inside the pyramid, remained unmoved by the scene outside and instead chuckled.

The ETO's wallbreakers are unwavering in their will, and external forces cannot sway their hearts; they are devout martyrs who dedicate themselves to the Lord.

The reason these people can feel genuine joy is naturally because they have played a role for the Lord.

“Feng Taylor is finally starting to make his plans clear,” von Neumann said.

The meeting between Lin Feng and PDC was recorded by Zhi Zi and shown to ETO for analysis.

Several ETO members, including Su Qier and Di Renjie, watched the meeting repeatedly with John von Neumann, analyzing the mindset and purpose of each country's representative at the time.

Of course, the analysis is mainly aimed at Lin Feng.

"Clarification? I still don't understand."

Su Qier glanced at Lin Feng in the video again, looking puzzled.

Throughout the meeting, the Wallfacer, Feng Taylor, only proposed the Starway Company to mediate the differences between the two sides. Apart from that, he didn't seem to bring up anything else. He didn't understand where Feng Taylor's plan had become clear.

John von Neumann smiled as he looked at the hellish scene outside the pyramids.

"His plans are not on the ground, but in the sky, in the universe above us."

"This is a clever scheme. On the surface, it advocates confronting the main fleet, so it needs various space facilities. In reality, it is paving the way for its own plans."

As if he had thought of something, von Neumann paused for a moment and then spoke.

"Perhaps, those previous breakthroughs made him realize that the plans on the ground were simply insufficient to deal with the Lord, so he placed his hopes in the universe."

"universe?!"

Di Renjie looked surprised, and then asked urgently.

"So what is his plan?"

Von Neumann shook his head. "We can't tell anything from these actions yet. We need to wait for Feng Taylor to reveal more clues."

"Don't rush. I know Feng Taylor. With his personality, he can't hide anything. We just need to wait for the right opportunity to discover his plan."

Von Neumann sneered. Of the three Wallfacers, he thought the easiest to deal with was Feng Taylor. Bill Hines was the most deeply hidden, Regiaz was next, and Luo Ji was fighting against the Lord, so the ETO didn't need to worry about him. Feng Taylor was the weakest of them all.

The most compelling evidence is that they have repeatedly disrupted Feng Taylor's plans!

Chapter 82 The Combination of Macro-Electronics and Electromagnetic Guns

Several pop-up windows appeared around von Neumann, showing the ETO executives surrounded by mountains of documents—all the information on current ETO members from birth to the present.

ETO is determined to thoroughly investigate all traitors within the organization.

"Has Feng Taylor's plan been thwarted?" Qin Shi Huang asked.

Von Neumann said, "Not yet, but I have bought the organization some time."

"Why isn't that damn Maple Taylor hibernating yet?" Mozi said, somewhat annoyed.

Von Neumann said, "This shows that Feng Taylor's plan is far from over. Perhaps, as he said at the time, his plans are as numerous as hairs on a cow."

Bohr sneered, "Heh, as long as it's not an escape, no matter how many plans you have, it's useless. Any struggle is just a futile effort. The Lord doesn't care at all."

"It is precisely because the Lord fears that humanity will flee that He needs us to unravel the maze of human thought."

Despite his relatively young age, Bohr still uses this method to flaunt his achievements.

This made Mozi somewhat dissatisfied. Everyone here is a high-ranking member of ETO and has achieved results. Why do you keep showing off as if Bohr can't function without you?

Mozi said sarcastically, "Maybe Feng Taylor saw through this, which is why he repeatedly made those plans. That bastard always knows how to disgust people, making you want to kill him."

“How could he know these things without ever communicating with the Lord? He is not an omniscient and omnipotent God!” Bohr retorted.

Seeing that the two seemed to be arguing again, von Neumann quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Thanks to Bohr's earlier attempt to block the escape plan by breaking the wall, which also made the PDC wary of Feng Taylor, even if Feng Taylor really intended to escape, it would be very difficult to carry out the plan. The PDC would not let him do so. The members who infiltrated his Star Wandering Company are also on high alert for the escape plan. If anything happens, he will announce it to the PDC and all of humanity."

Bohr sneered, "It would have been better if he hadn't done it. Now that he has, the evidence is irrefutable, and he's facing a dead end, sentenced for abandoning all of humanity."

……

"Alas, people's joys and sorrows are not the same, but I believe that, at least when there are common interests, everyone's joys and sorrows are shared..."

Lin Feng held a newspaper, frowning and muttering to himself.

He woke up early this morning and saw the news, which made him feel an indescribable sense of unease.

The newspaper article was about a conflict between a high-ranking officer in the Space Force and a player. It started as an online flame war, which escalated and eventually resulted in the player's family's finances being severely impacted.

Not only were his parents imprisoned, but the player was also burdened with tens of millions of dollars in debt and forced to work in a shady factory to pay it off.

The media is reporting on this extensively, and public opinion is impacting the Space Force. Meanwhile, the player community is showing extreme aversion to the Space Force.

If left unchecked, the conflict is likely to escalate further.

Lin Feng summoned his maid, Edith.

"Tell me what happened."

Edith said, "The incident stemmed from some media interviews with players who publicly belittled the Space Force, which led to dissatisfaction among some people within the Space Force."

Lin Feng frowned and threw the newspaper aside in annoyance.

"Does dissatisfaction justify such reckless behavior? They underestimated the player base, failed to conduct proper intelligence gathering, and now they blame the players for not giving them a break during virtual warfare? Do they really think space battles are child's play?"

"They're soldiers, and they don't even have this much mental fortitude? Those players aren't even soldiers, some aren't even adults, and they actually believed a few mindless words?"
