The construction of the Ring Solar Wall is a fully automated project.

Each worker dispatched here had their instincts modified, confined within a specific space, unable to rest or die, merely puppets controlled by strings on a never-ending drama stage built by the Heavenly People.

They live in repetitive isolation and numbness.

But Zhang Zhi found a way to find amusement through wall repair.

He used his self-made Gemstone Octopus to juggle pieces of gemstones.

When he was a child, he used to run errands and do odd jobs at a circus, learning a few tricks from a clown there.

The most common three-ball juggling pattern, where the balls trace an "∞" shape, is called the basic toss.

For a higher number of balls, tossing them in a single-direction circular trajectory rapidly is called the shower pattern.

Crossing and alternating arms to toss, with complex movements and visually impressive, is the most difficult called the machine gun pattern.

With his twelve gemstone arms now, Zhang Zhi perfected the dazzling multi-ball juggling, the gemstones reflecting under solar energy looked quite splendid.

This attracted the attention of many other workers.

Aside from juggling, Zhang Zhi also developed a method of building amusement parks.

He used gem cells as the base to create shapes like roller coasters, pirate ships, floating clouds, houses, and giant rabbits.

Although these structures would quickly smooth out once integrated into the Ring Solar Wall, if assembled separately, they could temporarily maintain their forms.

Zhang Zhi even imitated Jade City, creating his own multi-layered floating house.

This didn't interfere with his work nor was it prohibited or destroyed by the Heavenly People.

Gradually, other coworkers began to imitate him.

Everyone started building their own houses in the air above the Ring Solar Wall, some even with gardens. These various gemstone-built structures and scenes became rare self-entertainment in the tedious work.

There were even a few sapphires, rubies, and black gemstones turned into windows, lamps, and decorations.

Very soon.

Everyone's ingenuity was stirred.

Someone quickly figured out a new play, creating a rotating windmill that, when spun, brought warm currents of air, generating local wind.

Someone else created gemstone kites that could be flown very far, like giant whales swimming.

Others tinkered with complex power devices, using gem cells as the base to build vehicles similar to excavator ships. With black gemstones for control, their buckets could capture the floating gemstones.

Witnessing the daily changes, Zhang Zhi was very pleased.

It felt like when mutants formed the Freedom Army.

Everyone actually had talents that could produce remarkable effects, just lacking a catalyzing opportunity, a fish that could stir the stagnant water.

In the past, Wu Gang played this role.

Now Zhang Zhi was also trying to be this role.

This work highlighted his advantages.

Zhang Zhi had participated in a lot of frontline labor, having done mining and gathering, so he had some understanding of miners' needs and lives.

They needed fun to temporarily forget the fatigue and hardship.

Elsewhere, it could be drinking, smoking, gambling, or seeking prostitutes, but with limited conditions here, they had to make do.

Zhang Zhi remembered.

During Light Ice mining out at the Outer Sea, Skywalkers and sea lords, also miners, were forbidden from using any private items to prevent damage to the precision Light Ice.

Back then, everyone often played two tricks.

The first was breathing. Taking a deep breath of the dense mist and then blowing smoke rings like smoking.

The second was kicking stones. The mining area always had highly impurity Light Ice, worthless and could be passed around as a ball to kick. Football among old humans might have originated from similar conditions.

Zhang Zhi suddenly thought.

They could play such games here too.

The floating gem cells in the air were natural balls, weren't they?

Realizing this, Zhang Zhi used his self-made arms to lift a White Gemstone and threw it to the nearest worker.

The recipient was the one who built the windmill.

The White Gemstone flew over.

The windmill sent the gemstone to the next person, landing on the guy who made the giant shield, who then passed it on.

This unspoken tacit understanding turned into a simple game under everyone's cooperation.

Gemstone bouncing became a way for everyone to communicate and greet.

Before long.

Zhang Zhi came up with a new idea.

Since those floating gemstones were unrestricted, could they be used for more complex expressions?

He thought of Wasteland Company.

They developed a special language for aliens, including alien characters and later the Electric Cat Walkie-Talkie.

Contact was impossible.

But from the ball bouncing, it was evident communication wasn't blocked.

It just couldn't be done in conventional ways of conveying awareness or sound.

Zhang Zhi began working on creating a new gemstone tool, trying to build while still working, but it was too difficult for him, as he wasn't an engineer or craftsman.

After several failures, one day Zhang Zhi had a sudden realization.

It didn't need to be that complicated!

Just use Black Gemstone to convey consciousness, driven by Sapphire Energy, and project it onto White Gemstone to transmit information.

After confirming the experiment was feasible, Zhang Zhi sent the first message to his neighboring coworker.

——Hello, friend. My name is Zhang Zhi, the new guy.

The other person took a long time.

Until finally confirming Zhang Zhi was okay, only then did they cautiously respond through Black Gemstone.

——You're really reckless. No one has dared to do this before. I'm Shan Yang.

Zhang Zhi felt relieved.

It was indeed workable.

——Ways are all tried out. Did no one dare to do this before?

——Of course. No one dared to be the first, fearing to be sealed into the wall. Although work is painful, it's better than becoming part of the wall, immobile.

Zhang Zhi suddenly understood.

He had taken the pioneering step.

He vaguely felt that the Heavenly People might not have a mechanism prohibiting communication; it was more like restrictions caused by the unique environment of the Ring Solar Wall.

The Heavenly People didn't care about Light Core Bodies.

Workers like himself were the same.

He and Shan Yang soon became familiar.

The other was a Skywalker Mountain Dog, discarded to labor here due to a lack of talent.

According to Shan Yang, the Ring Solar Wall was only very sensitive to severe work errors, fixing workers into the wall as part of it.

Workers had specific distances, unable to approach each other, all isolated.

This was an endless servitude.

Under the terror of the Heavenly People's power, workers had no thoughts of rebellion, living listlessly like the walking dead.

Due to the absence of time references, no day or night, no one knew how much time had passed, leading to increasing machine-like tendencies.

Zhang Zhi's dangerous actions were changing this.

He and several nearby coworkers grew familiar.

After activating gemstone communication, the stagnant water began to move.

Everyone shared their discoveries together.

Like Shan Yang, having been here since before the Heavenly Kingdom was established, a genuine veteran worker. Skywalkers from that era were remarkable figures.

He suggested a specific gemstone arrangement that enabled cyclical gemstone rotation, the core technology behind his giant windmill.

Collective wisdom gathered, various experiences, and gemstone techniques began to converge.

Zhang Zhi led everyone to create a floating passage, enabling direct White Gemstone conversations, even using Gem Fiber to handshake, far more convenient than before.

Although workers' jobs were tough and repetitive, they had ample sapphire supplies, never worrying about energy, as everyone was at least a Skywalker.

While Zhang Zhi united the gemstone workers.

He suddenly received a message.

...

Pausing here, Zhang Zhi said to Zhou Yi before him: "The gist of the message was that due to my exceptional performance in wall construction, I was appointed an additional agent, serial number eight."

"My duty is to lead the workers there to continue improving efficiency and speeding up the Ring Solar Wall's construction."

He smiled wryly.

"Now I've been sent back to screen more workers to repair the wall, with no upper limit on numbers but requiring at least 100 to supplement there."

"In short, that's the situation."
