Chapter 161: Shift of Focus
The transport capabilities of rockets were simply too poor. Using them to deploy the swarm into space would be unimaginably inefficient and costly. From the very beginning, Luo Wen’s plan was to use a rocket to send himself to the moon and then redevelop the swarm there.
This plan had been decided even before Luo Wen began cultivating the Ratfolk and small dinosaurs. He had even considered an all-or-nothing gamble: once his main body reached the moon, he would destroy the Brood Nest still on the Genesis Planet. If successful, the starting point of the swarm would leap forward by several levels.
With its low gravity and lack of atmosphere, the moon was an ideal base for launching into the stars, significantly reducing the difficulty of such an endeavor.
Of course, this plan was initially extremely risky. At that time, Luo Wen was not yet a “Networked Being,” had not discovered that the Brood Nest could also hatch his main body, and was unaware of the forced logout function.
It’s easy to imagine how much thought, cautious Luo Wen put into this plan before deciding on it.
Perhaps it was his cautious mindset that influenced his talents, or maybe luck played a role. One by one, new abilities were discovered, gradually reducing the risks associated with this plan.
By the end, even in the event of failure, the loss would be minimal—just some time wasted.
And for the current Luo Wen, time was the cheapest resource. As long as he could endure it, even tens of thousands of years were a trivial matter.
Luo Wen’s main body took some time at the Fungal Carpet to replenish the reserves of his Tail Lard Storage Organ. Then he entered a cocooning state to repair his body.
