Among them, abnormal fluctuations were transmitted from undetectable places underground. Although they did not bring any changes to the surface, they attracted the attention of scientists.

It is a pity that the coalition government did not pay enough attention to it.

Because after the lunar crisis, the troubles caused by setting sail seem to be endless.

Especially since Rody has been missing for a whole year, many people think that this strongest human being may have fallen.

This resulted in arguments that dominated almost every day of the coalition government.

Regarding whether government departments will continue to move to the City of Hope, regarding the dominance and control of the City of Hope in the future, regarding whether to limit the authority of the artificial intelligence Jarvis, etc.

These are all part of it, and there is also an internal crisis among humanity, famine, and death that is spreading.

Although humans have avoided the lunar crisis, a hasty voyage will inevitably bring uncontrollable risks.

Population, an important cornerstone of civilization, has now become a huge burden.

Not counting the fact that only two-thirds of the world's population entered the dungeon, the remaining one-third was left on the cold ground.

There are also constant problems with resource supply in the dungeon.

Therefore, the coalition government is overwhelmed by various problems that are like waves, and has no time to care about any abnormal data.

It was on this day when August just arrived.

Roddy - wakes up from his slumber.

...

To be exact, I was woken up.

Roddy woke up from his deep sleep and there was a buzzing sound in his ears, as if a thousand flies were flying around him.

Disturbing one's dreams.

But when he fully woke up, the original feeling of controlling his body disappeared. Instead, his sight began to fly upwards until he saw the 'blue' planet traveling through the universe.

"Oh...has the fusion with Blue Star's will been completed?"

Roddy could feel that he was now the Blue Planet... This feeling was very wonderful, as if he could move the earth's crust and overturn mountains and seas with just a thought. At the same time, he also had an enhanced version of the power of the Moon Demon - he could control the gravity of the entire planet.

All this stems from the fact that he unlocked the second-stage mission and the side quest reward - the world affinity bonus.

Roddy could feel that as long as he wanted, he could harmonize his will with the will of Blue Star.

Before Roddy could make a decision or think about whether to go to the Black Palace to ask others for advice, the Blue Star automatically extended its traction force to pull him into the center of the earth.

"...Then I am not in harmony with the Tao???"

Rody's will had been in a state of chaos during the fusion process, and he had not awakened from his slumber until today when the initial fusion was almost complete.

At the same time, Rody could clearly feel every blade of grass and tree on Blue Star, and even the thoughts and ideas in everyone's heart, as if they were all his children...

Okay, male mom?

Chapter 231 Where there is oppression, there is resistance!

New Union Government Building

Today is moving day, and the coalition government will officially move into its new building in the north of the City of Hope.

The new United Government Building is in the shape of a mountain, with thick outer walls standing majestically. Its structure is simple yet has a grand feel, with a style of former Big Brother architecture, better suited to the future wandering life covered in ice and snow.

Because it is located in the southern hemisphere, most of the surrounding scenery is pale and shrouded in the dark polar night. High-brightness spotlights are installed around it, reflecting the surrounding ice and snow-covered scene on the steel exterior wall.

The city of ice and snow - the city of hope for mankind.

This new federal government building took a whole year to build and renovate. Apart from the above-ground area, the underground city is expected to accommodate 500,000 to 700,000 people.

Coupled with the underground capacity of the City of Hope, it also indicates that this place will become the new capital.

As the surface temperature had dropped to more than 40 degrees below zero, the global press conference was held indoors.

Compared to a year ago, Hao Xiaoxi's temperament has become more mature. He stood in front of the camera wearing a cotton coat, but his expression was solemn and his brows were tightly furrowed.

Some people in the coalition government are beginning to get impatient, including some middle and senior executives in City of Hope, who are gearing up to divide up the legacy left by Rody.

They need the existence of a god more now than before, but the meaning and attitude have changed 180 degrees.

The question raised by Moss before has a better answer - humans need a god to give them hope and motivation to move forward during the long winter, but they don’t need a living god, just a spiritual symbol is enough.

Perhaps this is what Moss really wants. After Rody's disappearance, the United Government and the City of Hope were slowly merging. However, the speed became very slow because Rody's death could not be confirmed. But now, a year has passed, and the speed has begun to accelerate-accelerate-and accelerate again.

Although Hao Xiaoxi was angry that her husband's "inheritance" was divided up so quickly, and even more angry at the faces of those people, as a high-ranking human being, she was powerless to do anything.

...

"Today is the first day of our voyage to Blue Star..."

In the spacious and bright hall.

Hao Xiaoxi stood on the stage, reading the script expressionlessly, and her identity as Rody's 'widow' was completely exposed.

Attracting much attention.

This is the evil of human nature. Those greedy guys want someone who is in control, easy to control and has a high status to stand in front of the stage, attract most of the attention and act as an obedient puppet.

Hao Xiaoxi was forced to accept a large amount of 'zz' inheritance left by Rody and become the nominal president of the coalition government, but she would rather not have it.

'Adi..where are you..if you are still alive, please respond to me..'

She is really tired..

"In the future, to commemorate our great hero Rody, who used his life... used his life to guide the direction of human progress, the City of Hope will be officially renamed 'Rocheng' today. At the same time, Rocheng will also become the new capital of mankind in the future..."

Hao Xiaoxi kept repeating the word "life" and his emotions were a little out of control, but he still forced himself to finish reading the manuscript.

The group of old and frail guys sitting in the audience made her feel sick. These people enjoyed the genetic leap of life, but they gained the energy to regain control of power.

Power is corrosive. Once people are addicted to power, they will never let go of it.

Hao Xiaoxi suddenly felt extremely tired. She once thought that even if the coalition government handled some things in an extreme way, it was all for the survival of human civilization.

But now, barely setting sail, it begins to decay rapidly, as if the danger no longer exists!

"Can these people really lead Blue Star to the other side 2,500 years from now?"

This thought popped up in Hao Xiaoxi's mind.

The various dirty struggles she had experienced this year were more than what she had experienced in the previous thirty years combined! They all disappointed her.

She began to feel that only a fresh blood could bring about change in the coalition government, which had begun to appear rigid and aging.

...

Liu Peiqiang's home.

Located on the thirty-sixth platform of the underground city, the deeper the platform, the more difficult life for the residents. This difficulty is multifaceted, including the status of resources. The thirty-sixth floor can only be regarded as the middle level downward.

"What a rare guest! Xiaoxi, why didn't you tell me you were coming?"

Han Duoduo was doing housework at home when she heard a knock on the door.

When she opened the door, she found that it was Hao Xiaoxi. At first, she almost didn't recognize her, probably because Hao Xiaoxi had changed her clothes and was wearing sunglasses.

"I came to see you guys. Where's Xiao Qi?"

Seeing her best friend, a smile broke out on Hao Xiaoxi's tired face. She handed the already precious fruit to Han Duoduo and walked into the house.

Han Duoduo glanced at Hao Xiaoxi's back, paused for a moment, and then chose to close the door, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

While answering with a smile.

"Xiao Qi, he and his dad are messing around in the house. This kid just likes to stick to his dad."

"Boys all like their fathers. Besides, Xiao Qi has a talent as a mechanic, so we can't bury it."

As Hao Xiaoxi spoke, he glanced at the warm home of Liu Peiqiang and Han Duoduo, and a look of loneliness and hesitation flashed in his eyes.

Liu Peiqiang heard voices outside and someone came out of the house.

Liu Peiqiang looks much more stable than he did a year ago, and he has even grown a beard, making him look like a man in his thirties.

Their house is not very big. The apartment they were allocated is a bit like the tube-shaped building from a hundred years ago, with one bedroom, one living room and one bathroom, with an area of ​​no more than 30 square meters.

Living with three people seems very tight. Liu Qi is growing up now, but he still doesn't have a room of his own.

Logically speaking, as senior executives of City of Hope, Liu Peiqiang and his family should live in a luxury villa.

At least he must have a spacious and comfortable home, but although the room is still warm, it reveals its shabbyness and is not in line with his status.

The reason is actually obvious.

...

"Pei Qiang, you've been tired recently."

Liu Qi was coaxed by Han Duoduo to go back to the house. Han Duoduo was very smart and she felt something was wrong from the moment Hao Xiaoxi came to the house. So she gave the space to Hao Xiaoxi and Liu Peiqiang to have a private conversation.

Hao Xiaoxi took the hot water handed to her by Liu Peiqiang. The temperature in the room was still a bit cold.

"Suffering, hey, it's all for serving the people. It's a good thing that I'm the Minister of Health of Luocheng Underground City. I have more time and can spend more time with my family."

Liu Peiqiang sat down on the sofa, waved his hand and smiled.

There was no sign of grievance on his face.

However, the gap between him and the leader who controls the human gene leap program and a dispensable so-called Minister of Health, or just a Minister of Health in an underground city, can be imagined.

No wonder they can only live in such a small room, which is not much better than that of an ordinary family.

Hao Xiaoxi was silent.

Although Liu Peiqiang is very capable and has the courage and professional skills to not fear sacrifice, the couple is not so good when it comes to politics.

Most of the close associates that Rody kept around him were transferred from their original positions under various excuses during this year. Compared to engaging in struggles, the old foxes in the coalition government were more sophisticated.

Most of Roddy's men are astronauts. How could scientists possibly fight against them?

The top human strength such as Liu Peiqiang, a senior general, was also completely buried because strong individuals were not needed in peacetime.

But what about times when there is no peace?

...

"I came here today because I want to discuss something with you."
