Chapter 852: Ten Years! (4)
Editor: Henyee Translations
The interior of the huge platform was mostly divided into more critical work areas, weapons areas, and administrative command areas.
According to the final report of the Nantianmen plan, after the Luan Platform was officially built, a large number of soldiers would be stationed.
They would be equipped with the most advanced technological weapons and become the first line of defense to protect Great Xia.
If they had built an outdoor facility on the Luan platform before taking off, no one could guarantee that there would not be any unexpected accidents when they passed through the atmosphere.
Such an accident was very likely to cause all the efforts of the past two years to be wasted. Therefore, to be on the safe side, the headquarters finally decided that the outdoor facilities on the platform would be deployed and built after the Luan platform reached the established orbit.
This was also thanks to the latest series of armors developed by the technology research and development department. Wearing such armor, everyone could move freely within the barrier.
Not only did the miniature oxygen storage device embedded in it abandon its previous cumbersome appearance and adopt a smaller technological concentration, but even the oxygen storage inside had been significantly increased.
An oxygen replenishment station was specially set up inside the Luan platform. A large oxygen replenishment station could support more than 200 soldiers for more than two months.
Hence, this also meant that Great Xia had to establish a transmission channel between Earth and the Nantianmen as soon as possible. After all, the oxygen used only needed to be replenished on Earth and sent to the supplement station.
The high-definition satellite image transmitted back, making Zhao Guofeng and the others feel as if they were in space. Looking at the scenes in front of them, they could not help but sigh.
The political representative, Wu Tianshuo, stood in front of the many screens with his hands behind his back and took a deep breath. “Who would have thought that the scene that could only be seen in sci-fi movies would now become reality? It’s right in front of us.”
Zhang Keqi, the director of the Space Administration, smiled and nodded. “In recent years, the world has changed faster and faster. Sometimes, I even wonder if I’m dreaming. Aliens, super-advanced technology, artificial intelligence, and even cultivation. These terms that originally did not exist in real life appeared one by one and gathered in just a few years. Sometimes, I really feel that I’m old. It’s always a little difficult to accept these things.”
The oldest of the three was Zhao Guofeng. Therefore, after hearing this, he immediately pretended to be dissatisfied. “If you all say that you’re old, won’t I be ashamed?”
When the two of them heard this, they laughed. Zhao Guofeng also nodded with emotion. “The Nantianmen Plan… I really didn’t expect to be able to personally command such a grand plan in my lifetime.
“Earth had already begun to connect to the mysterious universe. At the moment, there was really no clear conclusion as to whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. The only thing we can be sure of is that our development is no longer limited to Earth. Other countries have also begun to look at the universe.
“To put it bluntly, the first opening of the Civilization Ruins 1 on the moon was a test between various countries. After that incident, it was believed that the interests and relationships that had already been formed between the various countries had officially become clear in this contact.
“It was really helpless. Great Xia’s rapid development was a potential threat to any other country. So this also means that we have no allies in the universe. The second exploration of civilization ruin was about to begin. This time, the moon battlefield was the true core. I think compared to this time, the first opening can only be considered a small matter.
“For the Great Xia representative team, the real test is actually in the second exploration of the civilization ruin.”
The political representative, Wu Tianshuo, patted Zhao Guofeng’s shoulder and said, “There’s no need to worry too much about this matter. As the saying goes, we’ll deal with whatever comes our way. Moreover, our trump card is a cultivator. The strength of those pioneers who followed the Dao Ancestor into cultivation had already exceeded our imagination.
“In these few short years, in the words of cultivation, their realms had really increased a lot. From this angle, be it their strength or the technology content of their armor, they were far superior to other countries. Even on the alien battlefield, in this second official confrontation, it’s still hard to say who will win.”
Zhang Keqi seemed to have suddenly thought of something. He looked at Zhao Guofeng curiously and asked, “Speaking of the Dao Ancestor, why hasn’t there been any news of him in recent years? When he started preaching, I really thought that Great Xia was about to begin the path of cultivation for everyone. But later on, the Dao Ancestor suddenly announced that he was in seclusion. After that, there was no news. It’s really confusing.”
A thoughtful glint quickly flashed across Zhao Guofeng’s eyes, and then he nodded gently.
In fact, Zhao Guofeng had been thinking about Su Yun. In the past few years, there had even been many times when he could not help but want to see Su Yun’s current situation. However, he thought that Su Yun might be at a critical stage, so if he rashly went, he would be a sinner for all eternity if he disturbed him.
