Captain, your ship has exploded again.

Very good, now even his wife and crew members have started acting as riddle solvers.

Looking at the empty central database, Zhang Xun regretted giving Natal such high privileges. Although he had nothing to hide, the feeling of shooting himself in the foot was particularly unpleasant.

On the Death Star at night (the warship's brightness is adjusted according to the time), Zhang Xun, having no need to rest, idly uses Tianwen to simulate his conversation with Asuka at that time.

"Don't even try. If you could name any one of the above, Natal wouldn't just kiss you out of revenge."

Mari walked over to Zhang Xun and took out a strawberry ice cream from the food transmitter to eat.

Zhang Xun understood that he couldn't say a single word that Tianwen had simulated. He would never say things like "I love you," "I'll take care of you," or even "Be my mistress."

Asuka's simulation was even more outrageous, making Zhang Xun cringe so badly he almost had cancer.

"I think so too. Tianwen's emotional system is too outdated."

Mari shrugged and said, "This is nobody else's fault. As the instigator, you really need to change your habit of always leaving yourself an out and restricting your own people."

Besides pointing out Zhang Xun's flaws through the Heavenly Question, Masumi also voiced their opinions in this sentence. It should be noted that the combat power of the EVA Apostles is not as weak as it was in Unicron. Although their mobile suits seem to be strengthened, their upper limit is locked.

"There's no way around it. Do you really think the protagonist of every universe is just a decoration? I don't want to be playing shock games in my own home. How is Asuka?"

Mari put down her empty ice cream cup and said, "You have some conscience. Although it wasn't much, she's doing well. She eats well, especially papaya milk and the like. To be honest, did you do something to upset her? I think she seems to have some hatred for Misato Katsuragi's breasts."

Zhang Xun directly avoided the question. Was he going to tell Mari Makinami that he had complained that her breasts were a bit uncomfortable? Although Asuka's breasts were not small, compared to the oversized mode of Gundam SEED, the cushioning effect was far inferior.

"Did you come to me just to complain about these things?"

"Then what else can we do? The technology department is in full charge on the space side, and we don't have any tasks to do for the time being."

Although Zhang Xun is short-handed, it's because he lacks top talent. Even with people like Garen joining, they're only taking on Zhao Wanyang's high-energy projects. The technologies related to materials, weapons, warship structures, and mental energy projection are still under pressure.

Actually, Zhang Xun was also in a situation where he had nothing to do. A flying head that could cosplay as a ghost at night couldn't possibly be of any help.

"Alright, except for the necessary personnel who need to stay behind, the rest of the combat personnel and I will go back to Earth to provide support! There's always something to do there."

Zemo's condition is not suitable for movement, and besides, outer space is no different from a construction site now. It would be better for him to stay on Earth to recover than to come up here.

“Ah~ah!”

Mari stretched and said, "Finally, I'm not stuck in the warship anymore. I want to go see the sea."

Zhang Xun didn't trust a single word about this cunning woman. Although the warships were very compactly designed, the Executor and the Death Star still had a large number of recreational areas simulating various environments.

It seems that some people don't really like space. Even with artificial gravity systems and plenty of space, those who crave freedom don't want to be confined to a warship.

The personnel who returned to support Earth successfully returned to Earth under the escort of five battleships.

The state of Earth at this time was far worse than expected.

After Europe was transformed from a continent into a vast ocean, Earth's climate system was completely disrupted.

If it weren't for Zhang Xun's emergency support of shields and supplies, the population of Blue Star might have been reduced by more than 60%, and there is not much land left on Blue Star suitable for cultivation.

Without the moon's gravity to bind the oceans, the receding seawater submerged most of the coastal cities. If the attack by the Cosmic Celestial hadn't evaporated the Arctic ice, and if Earth had been less fortunate enough to melt the Antarctic ice, even with Zhang Xun's support, the lack of land would have resulted in massive human deaths.

(A simple physics problem: Arctic ice is in the ocean, and its melting does not change sea level. Antarctica, on the other hand, has land-based glaciers, and their melting would cause sea level to rise.)

Looking at the extremely desolate Europe, Marbus said, "Tsk, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this a living hell."

Wang Ge patted the other person on the shoulder and said, "You've seen Hell before, haven't you? Isn't the interior of Warhammer worse than this place?"

Ingway touched his cane and said, "He means that you only shed tears when you see your own kind suffering. To be honest, it's really hard to empathize with the people in Warhammer. It's like looking at aliens in our universe."

Wang Ge agreed with their answers, since these two had never actively helped alien races in Star Wars, but instead both perished while helping humanity.

Xiang Xiaobai complained, "No wonder Zhang Xun recruited you two; it turns out you're on the same side."

The Xiang sisters neither supported nor opposed Zhang Xun's theory of human self-preservation, because in their world, nothing was more important than the other.

"This is already the result of simple treatment. You have to know that the attack of the Fusion Cannon not only melted the continent, but also activated two large volcanoes in Italy. In addition, the energy consumed to stabilize all of this, along with the movement of the mantle, is enough to allow the Death Star to make a long-distance jump."

Zhang Xun slowly floated off the spaceship. As the person in charge of handling many supplies, he was well aware of the damage that Blue Star had suffered.

Wang Ge scratched his head in confusion and asked, "No, there's nothing here. Europe has been turned into the Mediterranean. What are we doing here?"

"Two tasks. First, Wang Ge and the other mobile soldiers will use metal plates to completely seal the lava vent. The space battleship will bring over some rocks and soil to fill in Europa."

After Zhang Xun finished speaking, he began to control the warship to release the treated filling material.

"What? You want us to come here and do civil engineering?"

The Xiang sisters looked at Zhang Xun in disbelief. Although their armor could withstand high temperatures, going down to face the underwater lava would not be pleasant either.

Marbus asked curiously, "Why bother fixing it? Just move people south, mix dark chocolate with white chocolate, and maybe you can create a cow-themed version."

Everyone looked at Mabus, who looked behind him and, seeing nothing else, confirmed that everyone was watching him.

"What? Aren't they always advocating for cross-regional trade? I'm doing something good."

Hearing this, Asuka became furious and yelled at Marbus, "Mixed-race? That's called mixed-race! Can't you, you big brute, learn something?"

"Studying? Is studying more fun than shooting cannons?"

Seeing the two start arguing, Zhang Xun suddenly realized that the Three Idiots team had someone to follow up. Should he try to find another "Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick" combination?

Isaac used his telekinesis to lift a large alloy plate and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get to work. If you're not smart enough, then shut up. The mission instructions have already been issued, and none of you are paying attention."

Only then did they remember the electronic document Zhang Xun had sent earlier, and everyone opened their own copy.

'Blue Star Environmental Restoration Plan'.

'First, reconstruct the Europa continent to ensure the restoration of the North Atlantic Current and prevent the eruption of a mini ice age after Earth returns to its original position.'

'Second, prevent climate change in the Middle East...'

Upon seeing the final amount of work required for the project, all the mobile soldiers let out a wail of despair.

This workload is enough for them to fill up the Yellow Sea. Although it won't kill them, they definitely aren't here for a vacation.

Just as everyone was lamenting, Wang Ge made a call to Sun Hui.

"Hey, honey, wanna come to Earth to go beachcombing? What? You want to guard the Cybertronians? That's easy, just bring them over and hang them in the sky, wouldn't that look good!"

Zhang Xun had seen people betray their colleagues and companions, but this was the first time he'd seen someone betray their wife. He hoped that Sun Hui wouldn't beat Wang Ge into a sticker after she realized what was happening.

Wang Ge's plan was well-thought-out, but unfortunately, the target he chose was too powerful. Instead, he lost more than he gained. After discovering the problem, Sun Hui, who had come over, immediately became a white supervisor. She was even more skilled at wielding the electric whip than the rednecks. Wang Ge was forced to become a black slave and worked for seventy-two hours before he could return to his normal work schedule.

Of course, Sun Hui didn't just come over to crack the whip. With her superhuman strength, she could transport heavy objects by hand much faster than the engineering mechs. However, her aim was lacking, and she would often accidentally injure Wang Ge.

Soon after the problems on Blue Star were mostly fixed, news came from Zhao Wanyang that Marcus's new body modification was complete.

Upon receiving the news, Wang Ge instantly felt how great it was to liberate the people. Although the great man said that where there is oppression, there is resistance, specific situations still need to be analyzed specifically. At least before he received his new enhancement, Sun Hui was practically helpless against him.

Zhang Xun then took Zemo from the treatment pod back to space.

After rendezvousing with the Martian fleet, what came into view was an enormous mechanical octopus.

Tajin took an elegant sip of his coffee and said, "Zhang Xun, sometimes I feel that your technical department members are a bunch of guys without any artistic talent. Why don't you consider hiring a few people with artistic talent next time you recruit?"

Not only was Tajin uncomfortable looking at the new look, but Zhang Xun and the others also found it unpleasant.

Mabus rubbed his eyes and looked to the side, saying, "Hey, someone's food's gone moldy and sprouted legs, hurry up and take it! This thing looks so sleazy."

Mashiro wiped her glasses and said, "If the slums of Samba Country are the largest-scale illegal construction in human history, then this thing is even larger."

At this moment, the remains of the Primordial Celestial Venerable had long lost their metallic luster, and even flat surfaces and right angles were scarce. Zhang Xun looked at them as if they were marine creatures that had split their legs with a warthog on the ground. Even though he didn't have trypophobia, he got goosebumps all over his body at this moment.

"Everyone says that scientists have a unique aesthetic sense, and now I believe it."
