Chapter 450 Victory Celebration Banquet
"Come and pick me up!" Su Chen said again.
Someone hurriedly asked, "But what about the monster?!"
Elder Zhao and Elder Qin said in unison, "Why worry about the monster? Saving Little Chen is what matters!"
After speaking, the two were momentarily stunned, not expecting such tacit understanding between them.
They had said the exact same thing.
At this moment, they realized that Commander Liu Chengzhi had already piloted his Space Mecha and rapidly rushed over via warp jump.
When everyone arrived at the battlefield, they were shocked to find that the monster had vanished, leaving only Su Chen behind.
On the former battlefield, a massive chasm had appeared!
The chasm was so enormous that it was even more exaggerated than the Mother River of the Dragon Country!
It was as if it were a wound where the earth had been torn apart.
Everyone was horrified, wondering in astonishment how this had been caused.
After confirming that Su Chen was unharmed, Elder Qin asked, "Little Chen, where did the monster go?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "It's gone! It was ground into dust!"
Elder Zhao asked in pleasant surprise, "So that means..."
Su Chen nodded affirmatively, "Yes! We won!"
"The disaster..."
"...is completely over!"
Upon hearing Su Chen's words, the entire Blue Star was instantly plunged into a grand celebration.
"We won!"
"We won!"
"We won!"
"It wasn't easy, it wasn't easy!"
"Congratulations! Congratulations to you! Congratulations, congratulations to you!"
The Great Xia Federation army returned in triumph.
This day was destined to be recorded in history!
Not long after this day, it was the Dragon Country New Year.
With double happiness, the Great Xia Federation decided to host a grand celebration banquet, grant a month-long holiday, and honor the heroes who performed exceptionally in this war during the banquet, so that their achievements would be forever etched in the long river of the Great Xia Federation's history.
The elderly parents of The Su Family and Su Chen's sister, Su Youwan, were sitting in front of the television, watching the awards ceremony with full attention.
Outside, it was bustling with excitement, decorated with lanterns and streamers; people were setting off fireworks even in broad daylight.
Just then, a sudden clamor came from outside.
The Su Family looked towards the sound and saw a Space Mecha appearing outside.
The mecha's hatch slowly opened, and Elder Qin stepped out.
He walked straight to The Su Family, who were both surprised and delighted, feeling excited and nervous.
"E-Elder Qin, why are you here?"
Father Su asked with a puzzled expression.
Elder Qin turned his head to look at the celebration ceremony playing on the TV, smiled calmly, and said, "Naturally, to invite you all to attend the celebration banquet!"
"The TV broadcast can't compare to the live event; come with me."
Hearing Elder Qin's words, The Su Family was instantly stunned.
And the neighbors were even more shocked.
Being able to attend the celebration ceremony in person was a tremendous honor, not to mention having the Dragon Country's guardian, Elder Qin, personally come to invite them; the spectacle was simply overwhelming.
At the ceremony venue.
Mother Su looked around and couldn't help but ask Father Su beside her, "Didn't Elder Qin say Little Chen is here too? Why haven't I seen him?"
Father Su smiled and said, "He must be busy with something; our Little Chen has really made something of himself."
Pausing for a moment, he added jokingly, "Could it really be like what the neighbors said, that this kid has become a high-ranking official?"
"But if he were a high-ranking official, it wouldn't warrant Elder Qin coming to pick us up personally."
Su Youwan curled her lips and said with a smile, "Stop guessing; we'll know once we see Brother in a bit."
Father Su and Mother Su exchanged a look and nodded, "We really need to properly question this kid."
They realized that over these past few years, ever since Su Chen started university, he had become increasingly unfathomable.
The ceremony began.
As round after round of awards were presented, the audience's enthusiasm did not wane but instead grew even higher.
The award recipients were one more impressive than the last, making the viewers incredibly excited.
Now, it was time for the very last person to come on stage for the awards.
And this award was the highest level of honor.
At this, everyone's appetite was completely whetted.
They speculated who this highest honor would be awarded to.
"Does that even need thinking? Of course, it's Elder Qin, Qin Jianguo; after all, he is the guardian of the Dragon Country!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it must be the old gentleman!"
"However, didn't Elder Qin just receive a very high honor?"
"No one said you can only receive one honor!"
"See, I was right!"
The cheers of the crowd erupted instantly.
They saw Elder Qin slowly walk onto the awards stage.
But soon, everyone was stunned.
Elder Qin smiled and said, "I'm not the one receiving the award; I'm the one presenting it!"
The crowd was instantly bewildered!
Elder Qin is presenting?
Then who is the recipient?
In the astonished eyes of the crowd.
A man suddenly walked onto the podium, and as he stepped up, the gazes of the entire Blue Star's audience were all focused on him.
At the same time, Elder Qin's voice rang out:
"Let us welcome the Dragon Country's..."
"Chief Engineer of the Mecha Series!"
"Chief Engineer of the Longwei-class Strategic Warship!"
"Chief Engineer of the Aerospace Carrier!"
"Chief Engineer of the God-level Aerospace Carrier!"
"Chief Engineer of the Eternal Day Project!"
"Chief Engineer of the Tianmen Project!"
"General Su Chen, come forward to receive your award!"
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Su Chen slowly walked to Elder Qin's side.
Seeing his face, the entire Blue Star exploded with commotion!
"What????"
"The one who created the mecha, the carrier, and the energy projects, and the Tianmen Project, is this young man???"
"My God, how is this possible? Is the Dragon Country crazy, or am I crazy!"
"No, no, I know this young man; isn't he the young man who acted as a university volunteer at the previous Aerospace Carrier unveiling ceremony?"
"My God, do you remember? At that time, this young man seemed to be standing in the center, and he was the first person to press the button!"
"Could it be that the reason the Dragon Country is so powerful is all because of this genius?"
"Oh my god!!!!!"
...
Smith, watching television at home, was filled with astonishment, standing frozen on the spot.
His entire body couldn't stop trembling, and the puzzles that had previously confused him in his mind were instantly solved.
This young man, whom he had mocked for not understanding technology, was actually the person in the Dragon Country who understood technology the best!
No wonder as long as he nodded, no matter how absurd the blueprints were, Commander Liu Chengzhi had no objections!
No wonder before, when he sent the blueprints over, Commander Liu Chengzhi told him directly to just find him!
So, he was the top figure in the Dragon Country's technical field all along!
...
Inside the Eagle Country prison.
Secretary of State Jack and President Biden were also watching this live broadcast.
When Su Chen's identity was revealed, the two looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.
"So... we actually lost to a young man?"
At this moment, Su Chen's appearance brought the atmosphere of the celebration banquet to a climax.
Father Su and Mother Su hugged and wept, while Su Youwan waved vigorously at Su Chen, shouting "Brother" loudly, drawing envious gazes from those around her.
However, just as Su Chen was about to speak, the sky suddenly distorted.
Immediately after, a huge gate of light appeared, from which an extremely terrifying aura and sound emerged.
Everyone's faces were filled with terror!
Su Chen, however, asked the system with a calm expression, "Is this the gate to another world you mentioned to me a couple of days ago?"
The system replied, "Indeed!"
Su Chen asked again, "Are they all carbon-based lifeforms?"
The system answered, "Yes!"
Su Chen grinned and said disdainfully, "Then what the hell is there to fear?"
He gently stroked the ring on his finger, and the void instantly distorted.
The God-level Space Mecha appeared, emitting a powerful aura.
The creatures inside the gate of light seemed to sense the presence of the mecha, and the gate of light actually began to shrink.
Su Chen snorted lightly, "Want to run? Not that easy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the God-level Space Mecha charged directly into the gate of light...
(The End)
