Scholar's Advanced Technological System

Chapter 1677: The Future He Hopes For

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Human Alliance was formally established!

That sonorous voice, accompanied by bursts of cheers, spread to every corner of Earth's civilization along the internet.

On a well-known video website, netizens who watched the ceremony live through advanced imaging technology burst out with cheers as they shared the joy and excitement in their hearts with people of different skin colors sitting around them.

"Long live the Human Alliance!"

"I have tears streaming down my face… I didn't expect to see the rise of the Federation of Human Alliance in my lifetime."

"I feel like Academician Lu has been changing history ever since he woke up…"

"What does this thing have to do with Academician Lu? He is not a senior member of the Human Alliance."

"Please, without the stargate technology and without a faster than light engine, do you think it would be so easy to reach a consensus among the several regional alliances?"

"Now that the whole world is unified and everyone will be in the community of human destiny, do you think we still need an army?"

"Of course! The conflicts in the solar system have been resolved, but there are still conflicts outside the solar system. If our starship flies far enough, we will eventually encounter enemies!"

Whether it was the Pan-Asian Cooperation or other regional alliances, standing from the standpoint of humanity, they all felt the same passion from that inspiring speech.

To eradicate poverty and war, to end all oppression and enslavement, wasn't this the lifelong ideal of the general public and all the proletarians in the world?

Regardless of whether this could be achieved in the end, at least they began to see hope.

Not just on social media, even players in virtual reality networks had used their own ways to celebrate this historic moment.

In the Calan Empire game, players spontaneously gathered around the world and used starships to display the Human Alliance flag on the map.

Confused by the inexplicable actions of this group of players, the NPCs in the game mobilized all of the fleets in the nearby airspace and waited around the ring world, for fear that these players would do something irrational…

And people acted in the same places outside the online world.

On top of the dome of Tiangong City, splendid holographic lights were projected, and light particles bloomed like fireworks, reflecting a world map that encompassed the territories of the Earth, the Moon, and Mars.

On this map, every shining point of light represented a city, while the light particles represented the people living in the cities…

On the other hand, inside a house in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei city group.

An old man sat in front of the holographic TV while looking at the colored ribbons floating all over the venue as well as the dangling national flags of various countries. He could not help but show a trace of fascination and nostalgia in his eyes.

"Human Alliance… Feels like such an old concept."

The child lying on the carpet playing with smart toys raised his head and cast a curious look at his grandpa.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, did you have the Human Alliance before?"

"Haha, of course we had it. That was much earlier than the Pan-Asian Cooperation… If I remember correctly, the Earth Defense Forces were under the Human Alliance, but in the 2050s and 2060s, it seemed to be dissolved because of funding problems."

In fact, when the old man was a child, the Human Alliance had already come to the brink of disintegration. According to his grandfather, he had witnessed the end of a glorious era.

But the old man didn't feel that the glorious era was over.

After the end of the economic crisis in the 2050s, the resurgent Pan-Asian Cooperation resolved the problems left from the previous era and even regrouped and built a more prosperous civilization on this basis.

He still remembered that when he was a child, adults often worried about wages and housing issues.

But now, they had entered the intermediate stage of social government, and it seemed that they no longer had to worry about materialistic things. They did not blindly pursue money and power, but instead, they gradually began to pursue spirituality and to learn to treat their compatriots kindly.

"Dissolved?" There was a thoughtful expression on the child's face as he tilted his head and said, "That's a shame."

"It wasn't a shame. Everything born in this world has a purpose, and when its historical purpose is completed, it goes to a quiet place to rest and watch the growth of its descendants.

"Although the former Human Alliance was disbanded, the legacy it left behind has allowed us to form a more united collective than in the past. You're still too young to know about this. Maybe when you grow up, you will understand."

An enviable smile suddenly appeared on the old man's face. He reached out his hand and rubbed his grandson's little head gently.

"Kiddo, you were born in a great era."

The child's eyes rolled. He said with a smile, "I will definitely take grandpa to wherever I go!"

The old man laughed and said jokingly, "When you can run around alone in the world, your grandpa probably won't be able to get out of bed."

The speech at the Heart of Asia came to an end. On the other side of the stargates, a giant cuboid starship in Mars orbit was crowded with people.

The radio reverberated the chairman's passionate speech at the Heart of Asia, and under the guidance of the staff, the people who had already put on the spacesuits in the cabin followed the crowd towards the gangway with excited and nervous feelings.

This was the Milky Way starship, although many westerners called it the Columbus or Magellan.

The meaning of its existence in this world was just like the sentence written on the ticket—to set sail for a greater dream.

After countless days and nights of modification, the Milky Way equipped with colonization units, warp drives, and antimatter energy piles were ready to go to Tau Ceti ten light-years away.

The 100,000 colonists would be divided into ten batches, and they would be sent from the spaceport to the Milky Way on standby through special delivery equipment.

There, they would receive two months of knowledge and skills training and three months of adaptability training.

After completing their training, they would begin the first journey of human civilization to the world outside the solar system as the colonists of the Human Alliance, sowing the fire of civilization to more distant places…

However, at this exciting moment, Lu Zhou, who made all of this possible, remained in the laboratory while quietly looking at a test tube on the experimental table.

It was as if all the noise from the outside world had nothing to do with him.

In fact, that was his mentality at this moment. After he completed his great work, he had very little care for things such as glory and wealth.

He was now infinitely close to the truth he was chasing.

The test tube in front of him was the last mission assigned to him by the system.

It was also the last gift Lu Zhou intended to leave to his hometown before setting off for a more distant world…

"Can full rank level 10 unlock options for the future era…"

When Lu Zhou remembered the description he first read on the holographic screen, he smiled lightly and pressed the switch on the experiment table.

To be honest, he didn't expect much.

Because he saw his future a long time ago…
