642: Chapter 642: The Spacecraft Arrives on Mars
Over the next 10 days, dozens more underground bases completely lost contact, a situation identical to that of Suiyang Anbu.
Oriental Chen had a premonition that China was about to change.
He reported this situation to Old Qin.
Old Qin only said one sentence: What must come will come.
Yes, what must come will come.
If the Moni People were so easy to deal with, humans would not have gone extinct 100 million years ago.
Oriental Chen couldn't help but recall the octopus photo deep in Monga's memory.
It was a Silicon-based Octopus.
Its existence definitely had a reason.
Perhaps this reason was the Moni People's true method.
...
Today was a special day.
The first fully charged zhen crystal had been sent from the central control station and was being transported back to Blue Star by a miniature nuclear-powered transport spacecraft.
A new era was slowly arriving.
Oriental Chen planned to use the first zhen crystal for the construction of the Mars Base.
The current loss of contact with Chinese bases further solidified this idea for him.
Blue Star had already developed in an uncontrollable direction.
The technology mastered by the Moni People was definitely not simple, and the uncertainty of whether the Space Station could operate smoothly was increasing.
Therefore, quickly building the Mars Base and completing data migration became the top priority.
"Xiao Lin, has the investigation into the Mutants within the base concluded?"
"It has concluded."
"What's the situation?"
"Within the scope of China, the total number of Mutants in all bases is 23.65 million people."
"How many?"
Oriental Chen was startled.
Had Mutants become as common as cabbage?
"23.65 million people," Xiao Lin confirmed again.
Currently, the total number of survivors in all of China is less than 500 million people.
This means that one in every 20 people is a Mutant.
This scale is quite exaggerated.
"What about Batuo City Base?"
"180,000 people," Xiao Lin replied.
"Hiss~" Oriental Chen gasped.
He had always thought Batuo City was relatively safe, as it had always operated independently.
Unexpectedly, there were so many suspicious individuals inside.
"Please summarize them by ability level."
"Okay, already summarized by ability level."
A chart appeared on the large screen.
From the chart, it could be seen that in Batuo City Base, there were 2 Level 7 ability users, 32 Level 6 ability users, 687 Level 5 ability users, and so on.
In other words, in Batuo City Base, there were over 700 Mutants hidden who were even more powerful than the elders of Mordo.
This was truly strange.
Why didn't these powerful Mutants stay in Mordo, but instead quietly hid among the crowd?
"Xiao Lin, quickly deploy nanobots on these people.
Once the Bee Queen is attacked, eliminate them immediately."
"Okay, Commander.
Due to the large number of people, it is estimated to take 10 days."
"Mm, as soon as possible.
Also, create an independent area in the base to be used as a prison.
The protective capabilities must be strong; I plan to use it to detain Mutants."
"Okay, Commander."
Another 20 days passed, and across the country, 60% of the Settlements had completely lost contact.
At the same time, the spacecraft carrying the Mars orbital satellite and the Bee Queen successfully arrived at Mars.
The zhen crystal, when transported back to Blue Star 10 days ago, had already been loaded into the Bee Queen.
"Commander, the miniature nuclear-powered transport spacecraft has successfully reached Mars orbit.
Should the satellite be released?"
"Release."
"Okay, the satellite has left the warehouse and is adjusting its attitude."
"The satellite has successfully entered orbit.
Connect?"
"Connect."
"Okay, connecting."
"Connection successful.
Communication signal is normal."
"Please, should the Bee Queen be deployed?"
"Deploy."
"Okay, the miniature nuclear-powered transport spacecraft is about to enter the Martian atmosphere."
"Decelerating."
"2000 meters."
"1500 meters."
"800 meters."
"200 meters."
"Reached safe distance.
Deploy?"
"Deploy."
"Okay.
Deployed."
"Bee Queen has landed and is starting up."
"Bee Queen has started up and is establishing connection."
"Connection successful, communication signal is normal."
"Commander, the conditions for Mars Base construction have been met.
Should the mission be started?"
"Start."
"Okay, mission started."
Upon receiving the command, the Bee Queen directly broke through the ground and drilled downwards.
This Bee Queen was not the same concept as the Bee Queen on Blue Star.
The zhen crystal integrated within it was enough to support its independent operation on Mars for millions of years.
This way, there would be no need to build a geothermal power room, and the construction period would be much shorter.
The first step of the mission was to build a Supercomputing Center.
This Supercomputing Center would serve as the main backend in the future, so its scale was very large.
"How long will it take for the Supercomputing Center to be built?"
"Estimated around 20 days."
"Alright."
Now, another zhen crystal had been transported to the Space Station.
It was time to start producing small space spacecraft.
