109: Chapter 109 The Aliens Have Arrived

After finding the most remote landing spot, Gao Yuan began to direct the descent.

This was Gao Yuan's second time visiting the moon.

The first time was on an interstellar tourist bus, which was a completely different concept from a battleship.

The temperature on the far side of the moon is much lower than on the near side, and its level of development is also very low.

The massive battleship descended, already approaching the lunar surface.

Gao Yuan immediately summoned the Space-Time Gate.

The massive battleship passed through the Space-Time Gate.

By the time it landed, it had already entered the Real World.

No one in this world knew that at this moment, a massive battleship had landed on the moon.

Just after landing, Gao Yuan directed the battleship to begin taking off again...

In the Future World, at a command center of the Development General Administration's Equipment Department, Zhou Qinli Daimu was a monitor here.

She was responsible for monitoring a decommissioned moon-class battleship. Everything had been normal, and the virtual screen in front of her showed the battleship descending toward the lunar surface.

However, in the next moment, a red exclamation mark suddenly popped up on the screen.

"Warning: Battleship connection lost..."

Zhou Qinli Daimu looked shocked. How could a battleship lose connection?

She double-checked several times, but she simply could not find the battleship's signal.

Only then did she realize something had happened.

She immediately went to find her supervisor...

By the time Su Muyan received the news, two hours had already passed.

Su Muyan summoned the Director of the Equipment Department, who was the leader of the Zhou family—one of the three giants of the Development General Administration—Zhou Zhenyuan!

"Old Zhou, that battleship has vanished. Under what circumstances would a battleship disappear?"

Zhou Zhenyuan had been the Director of the Equipment Department for thirty years.

"Old Su, you're being too sensitive. Gao Yuan is Gao Qiu's grandson, after all. If he didn't have at least this much ability, we would have underestimated him! There are only two reasons for a disappearance: one, the battleship crashed; two, the battleship's signal is being jammed. Which one do you think it is?"

"A crash is unlikely. Although the far side of the moon is remote, it's definitely not dangerous! So it must be the second option? What is this Gao Yuan trying to do?"

"Who knows... Don't be nervous. It's just one small battleship; it can't cause much of a stir. A moon-class battleship is nothing. Right now, the Heavenly Army is upgrading to earth-class battleships! Even the flagships have been replaced with sun-class ones!"

Su Muyan could not calm down.

"Do you think it's possible that Gao Qiu is still alive? Right there on the far side of the moon... perhaps there's a secret lunar base there!"

Zhou Zhenyuan laughed upon hearing this.

"I did suspect Gao Qiu was still alive before, but it's been twenty years... no one has seen him! Do you think he could hide for twenty years? Where could he possibly hide?"

"Hard to say... it's just a feeling! We have to be careful; things are still unstable over by the asteroids! A few days ago, Old Qin was chatting with me, suggesting we should just exile all the miners in the Asteroid Belt to the Kuiper Belt. That way, even if they wanted to come back, it would take them over six months! We could replace everyone in the Asteroid Belt with robots! What do you think of Old Qin's proposal?"

Zhou Zhenyuan pondered for a moment.

"It's a good idea, but not realistic! You know why we use those people in the Asteroid Belt—it's essentially just another prison! Besides, Old Qin might be being overly cautious. The Asteroid Belt even relies on Earth for its air supply. What kind of waves can they make? Even if they riot, as long as we cut off the air... they'll all die!"

"I think so too. Anyway, let's not talk about that! Let's get back to Gao Yuan... the Gao Family's prestige among the common people is too high!"

"Yes, that's why we can't touch Gao Yuan! Moreover, keeping the Gao Family around has its benefits—it keeps everything out in the open. As long as we keep an eye on them, we'll know who is dissatisfied with us."

"That makes sense..."

Su Muyan paused: "Old Zhou, tell the Heavenly Army base on the moon to send patrols to the far side!"

"Mm, that's only proper! Relax, don't be so sensitive. Gao Yuan is just a kid; maybe he's just putting on a show to mess with us. If you take it seriously, you've already lost!"

...

On the moon, Gao Yuan had already directed the robots to pilot the battleship toward Earth.

On Earth, the President of America was holding a meeting with Tiger.

Tiger was a blonde transgender person.

At this moment, he was holding a stack of documents.

"President, we have finalized the plan to deal with Gao Yuan! We have two preparations. First, we will issue an invitation to Gao Yuan in the name of the American government to attend the World Science and Technology Conference the day after tomorrow! If he comes, everything will be easy to handle! If he doesn't, we have a backup plan!"

"We found that Gao Yuan has a partner named Zhang Baiyi, and a senior executive named Lin Mei, both of whom are very close to him. The technology park is hard to enter, but these two are easy to approach. As long as we control them, we can lure Gao Yuan out! we have already sent people to the Xia Kingdom, specifically to Linzhou City in Shannan Province, to find an opportunity to seize them!"

"What if both plans fail?"

The New Leader asked.

"That's also easy! We can prepare a civil airliner, divert it during its flight to the Xia Kingdom to fly directly toward the Black Fish Technology Industrial Park, fill the cabin with aviation fuel, and then crash it into the park..."

The New Leader's wide mouth curled into a grin. If it came to that, it would be foolproof.

"If a civil airliner crashes, the Xia Kingdom officials are bound to make a scene..."

"President, our relationship with the Xia Kingdom exists in name only. If we don't kill Gao Yuan, the relationship won't get any better! We'll just say it was an accident. Do they really dare to start a war? The Xia Kingdom... is too far from America!"

"Haha, that's true! Good, go and prepare then!"

...

Gao Yuan had already completed a lap around Earth's orbit. He was being this high-profile specifically to let the major nations on Earth see clearly that an interstellar battleship had arrived—a product a thousand years ahead of its time...

The appearance of this battleship had already caused a massive uproar on Earth.

The Xia Kingdom Space Center.

The monitor was filled with shock after seeing the images transmitted back from the satellites.

A battleship...

Had appeared in Earth's low orbit!

This battleship was far larger than the biggest aircraft carriers on Earth.

The space station looked like a mere toy in front of it.

Spacecraft and space shuttles were nothing but scrap metal in its presence!

In the monitoring center, Liu Zhengqi had also arrived. As the head of the Space Center, he stared at the battleship on the screen, wondering where it had come from!

The same confusion was playing out at the Europa Space Agency, the American ASSA, and the Russian Space Agency...

Everyone wanted to know where this behemoth originated.

In the American Presidential Palace, the New Leader felt she was incredibly unlucky. Before Gao Yuan was even dealt with, an uninvited guest had arrived in the sky.

According to ASSA's assessment, humanity currently lacked the capability to launch such a massive object. Through the photos sent back by the satellites, the weapon systems on the battleship were clearly visible...

Therefore, ASSA reached a conclusion: the aliens are here!
