106: Chapter 106 Preparing for War

The report from the Yanxia Biochemical Research Institute provided a detailed investigation into the proportion of sick foreigners.

The biochemical experts discovered a shocking and terrifying truth.

Of the people infected with this new virus, 99.99% were Yanxia people.

The remaining 0.01% of sick foreigners were mixed-race individuals whose direct ancestors on their father's or mother's side for three generations were Yanxia people.

As for people from Sakura Country and the Korean Peninsula, who are also of Asian descent, although their ancestors migrated from the Yanxia land thousands of years ago,

over thousands of years of evolution, their genetic map has developed slight differences from that of current Yanxia people.

And this new virus had no effect on them whatsoever.

Minister Zheng Changshun, the Minister of Health, picked up the document and stood up, explaining to the Chief and the highest-ranking officials of Yanxia:

“According to statistics from the Ministry of Health and research from the Biochemical Research Institute, we have found that only Yanxia people, and mixed-race foreigners with Yanxia bloodlines within three generations, are infected with the new virus.

Experts from the Biochemical Research Institute analyzed the genetic maps of these confirmed foreign cases, and they all carry a dominant gene that distinguishes our current Yanxia ethnicity from other national ethnic groups.

Therefore, we have reason to suspect that this dominant gene, which all Yanxia people possess, has been exploited by a deranged country to create a gene-targeting virus specifically aimed at our pure Yanxia people!”

After Minister Zheng Changshun’s explanation, the Big Brothers in the highest conference room gasped in unison.

This was clearly an attempt to erase Yanxia from the world.

Several military representatives immediately slammed their hands on the table!

“Send troops! We must send troops! This must be the United States' doing, no doubt about it!”

“Yes, we must wage war! Our Yanxia is not to be trifled with.

After so many years of forbearance, we are now strong, yet we have been so treacherously attacked!”

“If Yanxia is gone from the world, then this world doesn’t need to exist either!”

In the highest conference room, these powerful figures at the pinnacle of national power were red-faced, condemning the United States' heinous actions.

Just as everyone was filled with righteous indignation, the Chief slowly stood up, his body seeming to have aged somewhat.

“Silence, everyone!”

Only then did the Big Brothers slowly quiet down, watching for what command the Chief would issue!

After the entire room fell silent, the Chief continued:

“This matter is of great importance.

We will immediately send representatives to engage in solemn negotiations with the United States, demanding that they hand over the method for treating the virus.

Within three days, if they equivocate and deny it, our Yanxia will immediately send troops, heading directly from the Pacific Ocean to the United States' mainland.

With the nation facing calamity and its very survival at stake, there is no room for error!”

Li Zhenfeng took on this negotiation mission, and several powerful military Big Brothers also received their orders, quickly entering a state of readiness for war.

...

Chen Yu, of course, was unaware of what was happening on Earth.

He was still mining ore on Venus, over 80 million kilometers away.

In the command room of the homeland-class spaceship, Chen Yu was eating a delicious meal, exquisitely prepared by Xiao Jiazi.

“Intelligent Brain, how much ore has been mined so far?”

[Today is the last day of mining; the interior of the spaceship is about to be full.]

“Good, we’ve had a good harvest this time.

We can transport back enough materials to build an underground base in one trip.

This is simply fantastic!”

[Captain, I have something to report to you.]

“Uh, go ahead, what is it?”

[While mining on Venus, we discovered some biological fossils 500 meters deep underground.

Based on our analysis of these fossils, these organisms went extinct approximately 600 million years ago, and these fossils belong to humanoid creatures similar to you Earthlings.]

Chen Yu’s eyes widened.

Earth scientists had always wanted to understand whether life had ever existed on Venus.

But now, he had discovered it himself, with ironclad evidence in the form of fossils, and they were even humanoid creatures.

Chen Yu couldn’t help but make a connection: Earth scientists had discovered that the first animals on Earth appeared approximately 600 million years ago.

Was there a connection between these two events?

Venus was once in the Solar System's habitable zone for 3 billion years.

If life could have been nurtured there, it would undoubtedly have produced intelligent beings and an intelligent civilization.

The research results of Earth scientists indicate that Venus fell out of the habitable zone six or seven hundred million years ago, and then experienced a severe crustal movement.

If there was a civilization on Venus, it must have been extinguished at that time.

Coincidentally, at that time, Earth had been in the habitable zone for a long time, and had even purified out a rich variety of plant species, but had never purified out animals.

And just as the Venusian civilization became extinct, animals immediately appeared on Earth.

Could it be that such a coincidence implies that the Venusian civilization ultimately sowed the seeds for Earth?

“Intelligent Brain, specifically dispatch a few robots to transport those fossils back for preservation, and then search the discovery site for any products similar to modern civilization.”

[Captain, that’s quite difficult.

Even the most difficult-to-degrade products of modern civilization, such as plastic and glass, would turn to dust within 1 million years.

So, it would be difficult to find products of the Venusian intelligent civilization from that time.]

“Alright then, you should still have the robots excavate more fossils of the Venusian humanoid creatures, and we can bring them back to Earth for leisurely study later.”

[Understood, Captain!]

...

Earth, Southern Military Region base.

Cao Guangde received orders to quickly assemble Yanxia’s three aircraft carriers and load all J-20 and J-35 fighter jets onto them.

All Type 096 nuclear submarines were fully loaded with missiles, and Type 055 destroyers were fully loaded with ammunition, ready to accompany the aircraft carriers to sea at any time.

The 10 Bullet Fighter Aircraft, newly provided by Huanyu Technology, were also loaded onto the aircraft carriers and fully prepared for combat.

Cao Guangde knew that this was the final preparation for war.

Thinking of this, Cao Guangde felt he should notify Chen Yu.

So he took out his private phone and called Chen Yu.

The call was immediately connected; this was Chen Yu’s voice intelligent program left on Earth.

“Hello, I am Chen Yu.

I am currently handling matters in outer space.

If you have anything, please leave a message.”

Cao Guangde was surprised that Chen Yu was not on Earth.

Considering Chen Yu’s current strength and his futuristic spaceship, it was normal for him to be handling matters in space.

Cao Guangde then left a message on the phone:

“Chen Yu, the nation is currently facing difficulties.

There is a new type of virus raging across the Yanxia land.

The high-level officials suspect it is a targeted virus manufactured by the United States specifically against Yanxia people.

Therefore, our military is now fully assembled, preparing to advance towards the United States' mainland, demanding that the other side hand over the method for treating the virus.

If you receive my message, please help Yanxia one more time!”

After Cao Guangde finished speaking, he hung up the phone and then looked at the clear blue sky.

“Chen Yu, where are you now?

Is the vast expanse of space truly where you roam?”

At this moment, a receiver within Huanyu Technology Park transmitted Cao Guangde’s voice message into space.
