Chapter 373: Stifling the Future!

It's hard!

Ye Cang is hard!

It's my fist that's hard!

This won't do, that won't do, what does she want to do?

Not looking for a nearby nebula to renovate, nor going to a habitable planet, what? Waiting for me to build a planet for them!

"This won't do, that won't do, how about this: you two just move into my bed! That way it's not only less trouble, but also very warm!"

Who would have thought, after hearing this, Kaisha and Hexi actually started to seriously calculate it.

"I think that's doable!"

"That's right! It's just that the bed needs to be a bit bigger, otherwise it won't fit. I'll calculate the specific dimensions first, Kaisha, you discuss the subsequent details with Ye Cang first."

"OK!"

Ye Cang:...

Fine, fine, fine!

I really shouldn't let these two old drivers get together!

Ye Cang raised his fist, which was as hard as it could possibly be, and threw a few punches at the two of them.

A moment later.

There were two unidentified, smoking objects on the ground.

"You two, if you don't talk properly again, I guarantee that the next thing to greet you two will definitely be a Power Sword!"

"Not my fist!"

Facing Ye Cang's Power Sword warning, Kaisha and Hexi finally became serious.

Hexi was the first to state her position.

"I'll speak first. I'm in charge of scientific research, so I'm only responsible for matters regarding research; everything else depends on Kaisha."

"Whatever Kaisha says goes. As long as she doesn't make a wrong decision, I have no objections. I'm done speaking!"

Ye Cang didn't speak, but turned his gaze toward Kaisha.

Kaisha didn't answer, as if she were thinking.

After about 2 or 3 minutes, she finally spoke.

"Hmm... the reason I didn't agree to those two suggestions of yours is because..."

"There is a suitable place right in front of us, so why move?"

Ye Cang frowned.

"You mean?"

"That's right, the Solar System!" Kaisha said straightforwardly.

"Anyway, the Angels are now part of Huaxia, so living together is normal. Therefore, I want to renovate the Solar System, transforming the Solar System from a star system into a nebula."

"The current target is set at 20 light-years; anything too big isn't convenient."

"The previous Meiluo Heavenly Court was 100 light-years, that was too big. How about it, Ye Cang, do you think my proposal is okay?"

This time it was Ye Cang's turn to be silent.

He truly hadn't thought of Kaisha's idea; it was simply too unexpected.

Transforming the two-light-year Solar System into 20 light-years.

Hmm... that really is a massive project!

But big project or not, whether it can bring enough benefits is what really matters.

If the beneficiaries after the renovation are only the Angels, then they can roll as far away as possible.

This time it was Ye Cang's turn to be silent, and he began to seriously ponder the pros and cons that the Angels renovating the Solar System would bring.

The most obvious, visible benefit is that if the Solar System is expanded to 20 light-years, then Gliese, which is 16 light-years away from Earth—no, that's New Lieyang—will be unobstructed from Earth.

There would be no distance issues at all.

Secondly, safety would be greatly increased; the Angels would definitely set up new defensive lines.

Of course, the new defensive lines couldn't all come from the Angels' hands; Earth would also take action.

Furthermore, if the Angels renovate the Solar System, they will inevitably clean up and renovate the internal planets, which would make it much easier for Earth to mine the planets, thereby accelerating the progress of the Great Expedition.

With the Angels joining, the Great Expedition would also be much more convenient.

And as for the drawbacks, there are quite a few.

For example, if the Angels and the people of Earth spend too much time together, something like a romance might blossom, and an Angel might descend to the mortal world.

Or perhaps...

All things considered, the pros actually outweigh the cons.

The culture of the Angel Civilization will eventually be worn down by Earth and won't have much of an impact.

After thinking it over seriously, Ye Cang agreed to the Angels' request and put forward his own requirements.

"I agree to the matter of renovating the Solar System."

"But, I also have requirements."

"Speak, I will definitely comply." When answering, Kaisha didn't have the slightest hesitation.

Immediately, Ye Cang put forward his requirements.

"I don't care how you renovate the Solar System, first of all, you are not allowed to touch Earth; it is my home planet. Secondly, you must leave all habitable planets for me."

"Also, regarding the construction of the later defensive lines, you are not allowed to build them without authorization."

"Furthermore, we must cooperate with each other in our actions. The relationship between humans and Angels is equal; there is no such thing as one side being superior to the other. For now, those are the three requirements."

"Oh, right, the Angels are not allowed to introduce any technology that surpasses Earth's current stage into it."

The three demands Ye Cang put forward were not major issues for Kaisha or the entire Angel Civilization.

Therefore, she agreed to them without hesitation.

"Very well, no problem."

"And I am glad you would not say things like humans will enslave Angels or that the status of humans is above that of Angels."

However, Kaisha was still somewhat puzzled by the point that Ye Cang would not allow the transfer of high-end technology.

Introducing high-end technology to Huaxia is a good thing that can promote the development of technology; why would he not allow it to be introduced?

Kaisha immediately raised this question.

"Ye Cang, why do you not allow Angels to introduce their high-end technology to Earth?"

"As the Chief Engineer, you should understand the benefits this would bring!"

"The collision of two types of technology will give birth to different, brilliant crystals, and these brilliant crystals will accelerate technological progress."

"Heh." Ye Cang gave a stiff laugh.

"You are right, but have you ever thought about what the drawbacks of doing this might be?"

"Drawbacks?" Kaisha did not quite react in time.

"How could there be drawbacks? No matter how you look at it, this is a good thing!"

"If I had to name a drawback, it would be nothing more than someone using brand-new technology to do evil; that is all."

Ye Cang shook his head.

"No, the drawback of doing this is that it stifles the future!"

Kaisha was confused.

"Stifles the future? How does this stifle the future? This is clearly a more brilliant future!"

"The technological complementarity between you and me, you call this stifling the future?"

"Yes, this is stifling the future!" Ye Cang said decisively, his tone brooking no doubt.

Hexi sat there silently, like an invisible person, watching all of this.

She was just someone who did scientific research; it was enough to just watch the excitement, there was no need to get involved.

However, she was also somewhat puzzled: how could technological complementarity be stifling the future?

"Once Angel high-end technology flows into Huaxia, the mainstream of future technology will become Angel technology! Technology will be locked in this way, with no possibility of further breakthroughs or innovation!"

"Future generations will only follow the path of their predecessors, regardless of whether this path is wrong or right!"

"Do you dare say this is not stifling the future?!"

Speaking of this, Ye Cang stood up and looked down at Kaisha.
