Let you be the wall-facer: you turn around and join the Three-Body Problem?

"Don't talk about you. I've been on duty here all day and I feel quite bored. I don't know how you can stay in this room for several months."

"Hey, Zhang Xiang, listen to me. You must remember this in the future. Don't believe Lin Xuan's lies. He is the real Wallfacer. He deceives everyone, Trisolarans and Earthlings."

"I know, but he never cheats people around him."

"What's this about me? An accident? I regret it now. When I became a wall-facer, I should have just gone to farm like Mr. Taylor. So what is Taylor doing now?"

"It seems... he is still hibernating, but he may have woken up and hidden himself as an ordinary person. After all, he went through the hibernation procedures himself, and we still don't have the authority to know where he is hibernating."

"Then don't bother him from living an ordinary life... Well, to be honest, I'm a little envious of him. He won without doing anything."

"That's true. The Earth Alliance has almost forgotten the existence of this Wallfacer. I can't believe that we have already gone through four eras."

"The era of the United Nations, the era of the Group of Seven, the era of the Global Union, and now the Global Union... I even feel like everything happened just yesterday."

The Earth Alliance is a political system re-established by humans after the collapse of Earth International at the beginning of the Deterrence Era. It is abbreviated as the Earth Alliance.

The establishment of the Ground Union was entirely used to restrict Luo Ji.

This political system is still a democratic system, but it does not follow the five laws of governance proposed by Lin Xuan. Instead, it adds a president position at the top.

The president's authority is above that of all ministers and representatives and he has absolute control over the final decision.

The reason why he was used to deal with Luo Ji was because the president of the Ground Federation was Luo Ji's daughter, Luo Congmin.

Shi Qiang’s previous words really came true. After Luo Ji became the Sword Bearer, Luo Congmin became the president of mankind.

This is actually forcing Luo Ji to delegate power.

As the Sword Bearer, Luo Ji has the ability to communicate with the Three-Body World, and the Three-Body World only recognizes Luo Ji.

In other words, any negotiations between the Earth Union and the Three-Body World would be meaningless if they did not go through Luo Ji, the Sword Wielder.

For a time, Luo Ji was not only a hero of the human race on Earth, but also the most powerful person on Earth.

This made the representatives of the Earth Alliance feel somewhat uncomfortable, because they had become clowns. A political system without any real power would only be greeted with people's ridicule.

Therefore, they need a representative president who can divide Luo Ji's sword-bearing power equally and return the power in Luo Ji's hands to humans.

At the beginning, the Earth Alliance wanted to ask Lin Xuan for help, but Lin Xuan ignored them and just said, "Figure it out on your own," and nothing more happened.

In desperation, the Earth Alliance had to turn its attention to another person again.

As the daughter of Luo Ji, Luo Congmin was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate for president. In addition, her influence in the political arena was not low, so choosing her was naturally the wisest choice.

Luo Congmin was quite resistant to this kind of thing at first. After all, there was the precedent of the Minister of Science, and she didn't want to become the second government official forced to commit suicide by the masses.

After the establishment of the Local Federation, the first thing Luo Congmin did was to vindicate the Minister of Science. But if one day he ended up like him, who would come to vindicate him?

But later, under Lin Xuan's persuasion... no, guidance, Luo Congmin still accepted the position of president.

There will inevitably be a conflict of ideas between the Di Lian and Luo Ji, because one is the sword-wielder standing at the level of the entire civilization, while the other is just a bureaucratic regime composed of egoists. Just like he has not killed Cheng Xin for the time being, since this is the general trend of the future, he will take the known hidden dangers into his own hands.

Not all hidden dangers in this world need to be eliminated as soon as they are seen. Some things should disappear when they should.

While the people on Earth were busy building gravitational wave transmitters, the Trisolarans were also not idle.

They first went to Yun Tianming to review the reasons why the Trisolarans failed in this war, and finally reached a unanimous conclusion, which was their contempt for human civilization.

If ETO was still there, the snow project would definitely not be hidden from ETO's eyes. Unfortunately, the snow project was not under the personal charge of Lin Xuan, so the Trisolarans only focused on the plans related to Lin Xuan, which led to contempt for humans.

Giving up contempt for humanity is the first step to winning the war.

The blockade of the sophon has been lifted, and now the Trisolarans are more concerned about the technological explosion of their own civilization.

Since joining the First Fleet, Yun Tianming has been constantly creating one fairy tale after another for the Three-Body World.

This is his job. Only by gaining the trust between himself and the Trisolarans can he get access to some more core secrets.

Although humanity has won the war against the Trisolarans, Yun Tianming is very clear that humanity is still far from defeating the Trisolarans.

Only when one day humans are able to surpass the comprehensive level of the Trisolarans in their own scientific field and the gap in strength between the two civilizations is narrowed to almost nothing, will the war be truly over.

Before that, Yun Tianming will continue to perform his job, waiting for the day when Lin Xuan needs him again.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, he did not receive a reply from Lin Xuan, but the Trisolarans took notice of him first.

At the end of the first year of the establishment of deterrence, Yun Tianming's status in the Three-Body World was suddenly raised to an extremely high level.

Although he was previously known as the 13th consul.

But everyone knows that the title is just a respectful name for him.

Because he was the first Earthling to come into contact with the Three-Body World and was also the messenger of Earth civilization, his becoming an archon had nothing to do with him. Yun Tianming naturally did not have as high power and status as other archons.

But now it is different. The Trisolarans respect Yun Tianming from the bottom of their hearts, and they begin to show goodwill to Yun Tianming intentionally or unintentionally.

This sudden change in attitude immediately aroused Yun Tianming's vigilance.

After asking, he roughly found out the reason for all these changes.

The fairy tales he made up received a very high response in the Three-Body World. At this time in the Three-Body World, Yun Tianming's works had become popular stories.

What is more important is that the Trisolarans have made ideological progress as a result. Their society has begun to undergo a transformation in form. The Enlightenment movement has gradually taken shape in the Trisolaran world, and a plan for all mankind is about to be born.

Chapter 149: Solar Accelerator

"That's the way it is. Our next focus will still have to be on solving the energy problem."

In the conference room, Lin Xuan knocked on the table.

This is a temporary base of the Earth Alliance in New York City. Because the water droplets of the Trisolarans destroyed Lin Xuan's Reach and Red Coast bases, Lin Xuan now has no place to hold meetings. This conference room was borrowed from Luo Congmin.

On both sides of the conference table sat a group of core members of Lin Xuan's faction.

Wang Miao, Ding Yi, Bai Bing, Cao Bin, Bi Yunfeng, Wei Cheng, and Diaz.

These are all the manpower that Lin Xuan can currently mobilize.

Cao Bin had said before that he had been working with Ding Yi on the application of cold fusion. The previous cold fusion battery was something he developed, and he also contributed partly to the nanorobot developed by Wang Miao.

Bi Yunfeng is a character that Lin Xuan later thawed out from the hibernation center by drawing cards. He is also one of the six candidates for the Sword Master in the original novel. Lin Xuan has a deep impression of this guy. In the original plot, it was he who saved Cheng Xin who was assassinated by Wade.

If it weren't for Lin Xuan, they would have hibernated all the way to the future to establish the Star Ring Group with Wade. However, based on the principle of not giving the talents to outsiders if I can use them, Lin Xuan fired almost all six Swordholder candidates from the hibernation center.

It’s really like opening a blind box.

The main reason is that Lin Xuan now has too few talents at his disposal.

Shi Qiang and Liu Chang followed Zhang Beihai to Centaurus and took away the artificial intelligence Cheng Xing made by Yun Tianming, and of course, Lin Xuan's shock value of nearly tens of billions.

On Luo Ji's side, Zhang Xiang needed to assist with security work, and Luo Congmin was the president of the Earth Federation, so he was too busy to handle everything.

Therefore, Lin Xuan must recruit all the talents he can find and use.

"The technological blockade of humanity by Sophon no longer exists, but the threat has not disappeared. As long as we fail to surpass the Trisolarans in technology, the Trisolarans will still be humanity's greatest enemy. Am I right?"

As Lin Xuan spoke, she looked up at the ceiling of the conference room. The pure white light made the wall look pale, and there was nothing on it.

But everyone present knew that Tomoko was right beside them, watching their every move at all times.

The Trisolarans were too lazy to answer Lin Xuan's question.

"What a genius." This is Cao Bin's evaluation of Lin Xuan.

He had never seen anyone who could chat so well with the Trisolarans while being monitored by the Sophon. Normal people who were monitored by the Sophon would not dare to say a word, for fear of being heard by the Trisolarans behind the Sophon.

But Lin Xuan gave people the feeling that he was almost chatting with the Trisolarans. He didn't feel uncomfortable at all because of the Trisolarans' surveillance.

Of course Lin Xuan wouldn't feel awkward. As long as he wasn't embarrassed, the one who would be embarrassed would be the Trisolaran who was monitoring him on Zhizi's side. In just one short meeting, he had received more than a dozen shock values ​​from the Trisolaran.

It can be seen that the Trisolarans do not seem to like monitoring Lin Xuan, but due to work needs, they have to monitor Lin Xuan all the time.

"Energy is the most critical issue that blocks the technological ceiling. We should make full use of the time when Sophon lifts the technological blockade to improve the technological level of mankind. The first thing to solve is the problem of boiling water."

Human energy development, in the final analysis, is the process of boiling water.

From the steam age to the electric age, from the nuclear energy age to the cold nuclear age, boiling water is the first step for mankind to invent new energy sources.

"I have two directions here. I called you here today just to discuss the feasibility. It's okay. We are all acquaintances. You can just express your opinions."

"The first plan is still the old tradition. We start working on antimatter energy and develop annihilation thrusters as soon as possible."

"Well, let's just talk about the second one." Ding Yi said bluntly.

Lin Xuan couldn't help but curl her lips when she heard that.

"Mr. Ding, you are being boring. Although I know you have worked hard in the past few years, think about it, which of your inventions over the years has not shocked the world? People's lives are changing with each passing day, and it is all due to you."

Ding Yi obviously didn't buy Lin Xuan's trick. He raised his glasses and said.

"Change your excuse. You used this excuse last time when you tricked me."

Lin Xuan: …

After a long time, Lin Xuan tentatively asked with some uncertainty.

"I don't think the Trisolarans spent much effort on this. Could it be that you, Mr. Ding, can't do it?"

"You fart!"

Lin Xuan's words directly aroused Ding Yi's inner desire to win, and he banged the table loudly.

"I can't do it even if I want to. We don't have the tools right now."

"what would you like?"

"Particle accelerator, a super large particle accelerator." Ding Yi said.

"You have to understand that the particle accelerator to produce antimatter would have to be very large, and it would be an unprecedentedly large project."

"It is not difficult to produce antimatter. Like controlled nuclear fusion, the basic theory of antimatter has been around since the 20th century. But so far, only a few nanograms have been produced. One gram = 1 billion nanograms. We must have a larger particle accelerator to speed up the production process."

Lin Xuan nodded slightly. Ding Yi's answer was within his expectations.

"This is the second direction I want to talk about, the solar accelerator."

Lin Xuan said as she casually took a paper cup from in front of Wang Miao and put it on the table.

Without him saying anything, just by hearing the name, everyone already knew that this thing orbits the star called the sun, and this paper cup should be the sun that Lin Xuan wanted to express.

"It's quite difficult. It's almost the same as building a Dyson Ring. The amount of work involved might be 340,000 times that of building Reach." Wei Cheng simply calculated it in his mind and gave his estimated answer.

"It's equivalent to building twenty Earths." Bai Bing added.

Ding Yi simply spread his hands, indicating that he was powerless.

"Well, this is what I mean by difficulty. This thing is too big. Whether it can be made is one thing, and how much antimatter energy it can produce is another. You can't wait until the day I die and the antimatter you produce is not even as heavy as my coffin, right?"

"I think it's better to start with the simplest one. For example, we can build a super-large particle acceleration ring around the earth. I have already thought of a name for it. It's called the Einstein Equator."

However, Bi Yunfeng was the only one in the audience who seemed to be thinking about something.

At this time, Lin Xuan clapped her hands, drawing the attention of everyone who was discussing heatedly back to her.

"Everyone, have you fallen into some kind of misconception? Do you all think that we are going to build a large circle of pipes around the sun?" Lin Xuan said as he drew a large circle around the water cup with a marker, wrapping the "sun" in it.

"Fuck!" Ding Yi suddenly slapped his thigh, scaring everyone present.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I almost forgot. Vacuum, vacuum, hehehehe!" Ding Yi let out a strange laugh.

"We always forget that we are in space. In a vacuum environment, accelerating particles does not require pipes."

After being reminded by Ding Yi, everyone present came to their senses.

"Damn it, I told you that staying on Earth for too long would affect your IQ. Every time you build something, you subconsciously ignore the vacuum environment."

Ding Yi dipped his hand in the cup of water and erased part of the line drawn by Lin Xuan, turning the entire loop from a complete circle into discontinuous line segments.

"That's it, hehehe, we only need to build this part, and we can save a lot of money."

The Circumsolar Accelerator is not a big ring, but is composed of a series of acceleration coils.

Building a Dyson ring that wraps around the sun might be extremely expensive, but if you only make acceleration coils, the problem isn't that big.

When everyone understood the plan proposed by Lin Xuan, the person who was most shocked should be Bi Yunfeng.

Because the solution given by Lin Xuan was almost the same as what he had just imagined in his mind, except that Lin Xuan was one step faster than him and said it first.

He had just joined Lin Xuan's team and was not very familiar with everyone, so he had not spoken just now, but had been repeatedly deducing the feasibility of this plan in his mind.

I didn't expect Lin Xuan to have the same idea as me. It felt like she knew my thoughts in advance.

It seems that I have followed the right boss this time. Lin Xuan is indeed quite capable of becoming the strongest wallfacer.

If the deceased Hines knew Bi Yunfeng's idea, he would definitely give Bi Yunfeng a thumbs up.
