365: How about we take a test together?
"Streamer, that old fellow from Meijian Country wants to expose you as a fraud. When are we going?"
"Yeah, he only knows how to bluster through the screen. I've long been fed up with that guy's style. What's so great? They started researching desertification technology decades ago, and this is all they have to show for it now?"
"It's one thing for their own research technology to be subpar, but they dare to question the Streamer? What are they trying to pull?"
"If the Streamer really wants to go to Meijian Country, he could go in minutes. Wearing the zodiac, the Streamer can go wherever he wants."
"That's right, I almost forgot. The Streamer is practically an outlaw in human form now. Besides being a genius in the agricultural technology sector, he also has other skills. Going to Meijian Country is indeed too easy."
Su Yu looked at the discussions in the live broadcast room, his expression a bit awkward.
Cough, cough, cough. It's one thing to talk about such things privately, but bringing them up publicly like this, wouldn't it be too disrespectful to other countries?
Other people need to go through a lot of procedures to go abroad, while he just puts on his mecha and leaves. Where would that leave their Ministry of Defense?
Last time he went to Sakura Country and the Stick Country, Su Yu had already been warned repeatedly.
Now, he still needs to be a bit more low-key.
However, there's no need to be so concerned when facing Meijian Country. After all, for this trip, he was publicly invited, so his going is open and aboveboard.
Meijian Country can't do anything to him.
After having his Lackey make some necessary preparations and confirming the location, Su Yu piloted the zodiac straight into the sky.
Meijian Country, here he comes!
...Half an hour later.
Chatting and laughing with the audience in the live broadcast room along the way, Su Yu quickly arrived at his destination.
It was on the edge of a desolate desert in western Meijian Country, far from the city.
Looking down at this desert from the sky, the yellow sand and dust were immense. Even at a distance of less than three kilometers from the ground, Su Yu found it difficult to see the environment below with the naked eye.
The perennial sandstorms enveloped the entire area's sky, giving a strange and unsettling feeling. It's no wonder it was dubbed the Sea of Death Desert by Meijian Country's netizens; this vast desert indeed looked very peculiar.
On the way to his destination, Su Yu had his Lackey contact the researchers at the Meijian Country Academy of Agricultural Sciences in advance.
The other party replied that they already had people stationed in the desert, waiting for Su Yu's arrival.
Moreover, this desert was also the place they claimed to be preparing for the forest one test site.
As long as Su Yu reached the designated location, personnel from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences would come to meet him and continue with the subsequent experiments.
"Brothers, it looks like Director John was well prepared."
"We thought our sudden visit would make the director a bit awkward, but it turns out we were overthinking it."
Su Yu, inside the mecha, chuckled and teased a bit.
However, anyone who wasn't a fool could tell that Su Yu's seemingly self-deprecating remarks were actually a veiled jab at Meijian Country, implying they had long prepared to deal with him.
It was clear that the other party had dug a pit in advance, waiting for him to jump in.
However, there's an old saying in Huaxia Country: 'When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth.' He had made all his preparations and only needed to respond to changes with constancy.
No matter what demons, ghosts, or monsters appeared, as long as he was careful enough, he naturally wouldn't fall into their trap.
Soon, Su Yu arrived at a marked spot on the outskirts of the desert.
He slowly descended according to the mark given by the other party, and finally, for the first time in this place of swirling yellow sand, he saw traces of human life.
It was a small camp, with a flag planted in it, clearly belonging to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences' experimental personnel.
They had only recently received notification and learned the full story. Brook, as the main person in charge of the camp and Director John's favored student, had the final say in all experiments conducted there.
John had also just informed Brook during their phone conversation on how the on-site experiment should proceed after Su Yu's arrival.
So, Brook now was essentially Director John's operational proxy.
Seeing Su Yu slowly descend from the sky, Brook, despite having prepared himself mentally in advance, was still a bit unsettled seeing a mecha for the first time.
"Hello, you must be Su Yu, Mr. Su, right?"
"The director has explained everything on-site to me. Welcome, Mr. Su, for traveling thousands of miles to our Meijian Country for academic exchange and discussion."
"Next, I will accompany Mr. Su throughout this on-site experiment."
Brook's expression was outwardly humble, but in reality, he had already made thorough preparations.
Su Yu gave the other party a faint glance, his expression showing no unusual reaction.
In fact, as soon as he learned of Meijian Country's gracious invitation, Su Yu guessed that the other party would definitely play tricks.
After arriving over the Sea of Death Desert, he further guessed where the other party's tricks would be used.
That's right, it was this Sea of Death Desert!
Through his Lackey's holographic terrain scan, Su Yu had long discovered the unusual aspects of this desert.
He wondered why Director John was so enthusiastic about him coming to Meijian Country for an on-site experiment; it turned out he already knew about the peculiar nature of this desert.
No organism could survive here for long periods; even humans would feel dizzy and weak in their limbs after staying for too long.
His Lackey had the most advanced database system in the world, so collecting information and testing this desert was incredibly easy.
Therefore, watching Brook's clumsy continuation of the act, Su Yu said nothing and just silently cooperated.
"Alright, since Mr. Brook is here specifically to welcome me, let's not delay our on-site test. Let's start now."
"My audience in the live broadcast room is already impatient."
Seeing this, Brook's lips curved slightly, revealing a cold sneer where no one noticed.
Good, good, good.
He had originally wanted to save some face and not make Huaxia Country look so bad. Since the other party was so stubborn, he simply wouldn't stop him anymore.
Brook nodded enthusiastically with a seemingly simple smile.
"Mr. Su, what else do you need me to cooperate with?"
"Our on-site experiment can begin at any time. The desert we are currently in was randomly chosen by the director. If the desert rice seed can stably survive and grow here, then presumably there won't be any other problems."
A randomly chosen place?
Su Yu chuckled inwardly. If he hadn't had his Lackey's help, he would have almost stumbled here today.
But now that the other party had presented themselves, he certainly wouldn't waste this opportunity.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yu spoke playfully.
"Didn't your research institute say during today's press conference that forest one only had experimental data for now and hadn't undergone on-site testing?"
"Coincidentally, the desert rice seed also needs on-site testing. Why don't we conduct the experiments together?"
"This way, we also won't waste the capabilities of the growth acceleration greenhouse. What do you think?"
