158: The US's new target – Mars!

Li Jianguo saw Lin Chen intentionally change the subject and didn't ask further.

He knew that Lin Chen definitely had his own secrets.

Perhaps he understood the universe quite well.

Currently, Blue Star has not confirmed whether alien civilizations exist.

Let alone interstellar wars.

For him, this was still too far off.

Li Jianguo felt that being able to see the Great Xia Country develop lunar resources was already very satisfying.

Especially recently, he also felt his body was getting worse day by day.

Perhaps, he might suddenly collapse one day.

But as long as Lin Chen was there, nothing was a problem.

"It seems I need to arrange a comprehensive health check-up for Little Lin!"

Li Jianguo thought to himself.

He had always had this idea.

But every time he brought it up, Lin Chen refused, citing being busy with work.

Now, the Moon Base construction has entered the right track.

Next, Lin Chen would also be a bit more relaxed.

Now, let's see how Lin Chen can refuse.

Lin Chen still didn't know that Li Jianguo was already planning something for him.

At this moment, he had already shifted his attention to the construction of the Moon Base... Meanwhile.

The whole world was stunned.

Eagle Sauce Alliance, Satellite Launch Center.

"My command! Prepare to launch..."

Opden, who was about to order the launch of missiles to intercept.

Suddenly heard Durutt excitedly report:

"President! It's gone... that meteorite is gone..."

"What?! Gone?" Opden was a little surprised, then thought of something, and his face instantly darkened, "Did the Great Xia Country make a move?"

Durutt nodded helplessly, "Yes! The news from the Astronomical Observatory is that the meteorite was destroyed by a Laser Cannon!"

"Currently, only the Great Xia Country has this capability!"

"Alas! It really was them!" Opden sighed, his face full of complexity.

He both hoped that the Great Xia Country would destroy the meteorite.

But also didn't want the Great Xia Country to continue to grow stronger.

After this incident, the Great Xia Country's international prestige would surely skyrocket again.

And they, the Eagle Sauce Alliance, had become a stepping stone for the Great Xia Country's strength.

Their lunar lander was destroyed by that meteorite.

But the Great Xia Country destroyed that meteorite.

When those countries compared them, the Eagle Sauce Alliance was simply a joke.

Because the contrast was too stark.

"President! What do we do now? Should we continue with the manned moon landing?" Durutt asked in a low voice.

In fact, he no longer wanted to meddle with the moon.

The Great Xia Country had the ability to destroy such a huge extraterrestrial meteorite.

Could they not have the ability to destroy their lunar lander?

He had always had a faint suspicion.

Even if their lunar lander wasn't destroyed by the extraterrestrial meteorite this time.

It would eventually be destroyed by the Great Xia Country.

Given the Great Xia Country's current dominance.

They would certainly not allow any country to meddle with the moon.

Just like their Eagle Sauce Alliance back in the day!

Hearing this, Opden fell silent.

Now that it had come to this!

He had to reconsider the moon landing.

The Great Xia Country's strength had exceeded his imagination.

If they continued to cause trouble on the moon, it might lead the Great Xia Country to directly attack them.

At that time, would they be able to contend with the Great Xia Country?

The answer was no!

Therefore, the only way now was to try to avoid conflicts with the Great Xia Country as much as possible.

Then diligently develop technology and strive to catch up with the Great Xia Country step by step.

The moon has become the Great Xia Country's backyard.

But there are other planets!

The Eagle Sauce Alliance could completely set its sights on other planets.

Thinking of this, Opden made a decision:

"Give up on the moon landing!"

"But we need to go further, directly landing on Mars."

"Landing on Mars??" Durutt was completely bewildered.

What kind of stunt was this?

Their Eagle Sauce Alliance was struggling to even get on a bed now!

Still thinking about landing on Mars?

If they had that ability, they would have already launched a manned moon landing!

Opden ignored Durutt's reaction and continued to speak excitedly and firmly:

"That's right! We must land on Mars."

"As long as we are the first to land on Mars, Mars will be ours in the future."

"This is the fastest way for us to develop into space!"

The moon has already been claimed by the Great Xia Country.

Then their Eagle Sauce Alliance will go and occupy Mars.

Perhaps there might be some surprises on Mars?

Durutt couldn't help but advise, "President! We're having trouble even with manned moon landings now! Isn't Mars a bit..."

Opden waved his hand, "I didn't say you have to complete it now; I'll give you half a year, no, a year!"

"Money for money, people for people!"

"After a year, we will start our Eagle Sauce Alliance's journey to explore Mars. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Hearing this, Durutt breathed a sigh of relief, "A year! We can give it a try!"

He thought Opden was going to make them land on Mars within one or two months again.

In that case, he would just go home.

Even with more money and more people, it would be impossible.

But with a year's time, perhaps they could give it a try!

"Very good, go convene an expert meeting now and come up with a concrete plan."

"Then, I'll go to Congress to get you the funds!"

After giving his instructions, Opden left the Satellite Launch Center and returned.

Durutt also quickly went to convene the relevant meeting... On the other side.

Other countries on Blue Star also learned about the disappearance of the meteorite and all breathed a sigh of relief.

After learning that the Great Xia Country had destroyed the meteorite.

They called the Great Xia Country to express their gratitude.

And publicly issued an announcement, thanking the Great Xia Country for saving humanity from a crisis.

Meanwhile.

Online, it had completely erupted.

"Great! That meteorite was destroyed. Thank you, Great Xia Country."

"Wuwu! The Great Xia Country is truly the light of humanity, they are the real guardians, unlike some countries that only cause destruction."

"The Great Xia Country will never disappoint us! Thank you, Great Xia Country."

""

At this moment, the Great Xia Country's international prestige soared wildly.

Even netizens from countries in the Eagle Sauce Alliance began to change their attitude towards the Great Xia Country.

Only a very few stubborn ones slandered the Great Xia Country.

For example, Sakura Country netizens still had that ugly look on their faces.

"baka, why is it the Great Xia Country again?"

"It must be fake! How could they be so kind?"

"Damn it! The Great Xia Country must have some ulterior motive this time!"

"Maybe that meteorite was even created by the Great Xia Country themselves."

""

Those Japanese devils felt more uncomfortable seeing the Great Xia Country so powerful than if they were killed.

Especially seeing the Great Xia Country with star flying cars and cure for cancer.

While they couldn't even resume work and production now.

Living a hard and bitter life every day.

This comparison made them even more jealous and resentful towards the Great Xia Country.

Their hatred for the Great Xia Country soared to its peak.

Sakura Country, Prime Ministers Office.

Kishida Jiro looked at the flattery from other countries towards the Great Xia Country, feeling worse than if he had eaten a dead fly.

"Damn Great Xia Country! I want you to die!"

"In another month, you all go to hell!"

Just then, his phone rang.

Kishida Jiro picked it up and saw it was Dr. Kawashima calling, so he quickly answered.

"Dr. Kawashima, is there any good news?"

"Mr. Prime Minister, it's bad! The t-virus has leaked..."
