230: Chapter 230 Identity Exposed
To prevent Xue Yao from changing her mind, Jiang Chen promptly cut off the communicator.
"See, neither I nor my wife agree, so you can rest easy, Elder."
"Next time the Moon or Mars sends people over, tell them directly: if they want people, there are none; if they want to die, they can come find me."
Jiang Chen promised them.
"What a line—'if they want to die, they can come find me'!"
Commander Long Kui couldn't help but praise; with such spirit, those kidnapped Gene Warriors were worth it.
"Earth needs people like you who don't forget their original intentions."
Xiao Shuihan was so moved that he was on the verge of tears again.
Whether it was the Moon or Mars, their development was built upon Earth, yet they didn't think of giving back. Instead, they continued to suck Earth dry; it was truly ungrateful.
Because of this, Jiang Chen's words deeply moved him.
Jiang Chen was about to say a few comforting words when a student rushed in.
"Teacher Xiao, people from Pangu Base have come again!"
"Is it the Moon or...?"
"Both the Moon and Mars have sent people. They are currently in the Academy Head's office waiting for you and Leader Long."
Xiao Shuihan frowned deeply; speak of the devil, and they appeared.
"Tell them they won't get a damn thing!" Commander Long Kui said domineeringly, then added, "Of course, that's what Jiang Chen said."
"Not only did I say it, but I'm also going to douse them with cold water to wake them up."
"Lead the way!"
Jiang Chen didn't hesitate and had the student lead the way as they all headed toward the Academy Head's office.
The Academy Head's Office.
The current Head of the Dragon God Academy was an old man named Jiang Hao.
However, the old man had no great reputation; his specialty was passing the buck.
In fact, the main role of this position was to handle diplomatic tug-of-wars.
He didn't have the strength for direct confrontations.
Xiao Shuihan, who did have the strength, had already retired behind the scenes to grow medicinal herbs in his small manor.
"You two, please be patient. I've already sent someone to find Teacher Xiao."
Jiang Hao served tea and water to two young men who looked to be under thirty, appearing somewhat humble.
Yet despite his humility, the two young men were still unimpressed.
They pushed the tea aside dismissively.
They said with some disdain, "This kind of tea is too low-grade. We don't drink it. We only drink high-grade genetically modified tea cultivated in space."
"Ever heard of the First Generation Mother Tree Dahongpao? This is a genetically modified tea that can truly cure all illnesses. It costs ten thousand Space Coins."
"Ten thousand Space Coins?"
Jiang Hao's hand trembled; ten thousand Space Coins was equivalent to one million RMB.
He hadn't expected their lives to be so extravagant.
A bit of tea cost millions of RMB, which was about the same as his annual salary.
Jiang Hao gave a sheepish smile and put the tea back.
"Space Coins?"
Jiang Chen had just reached the door when he heard this term, and his brow furrowed instantly.
Back when the Great Wall Scientific Research Station system was established, it was stipulated that RMB would be pegged to Controlled Nuclear Fusion. Who on earth created these Space Coins?
Was this an attempt to undermine the foundation of the RMB?
Jiang Chen's face darkened as he stepped inside.
"Who promoted the Space Coins?"
Jiang Chen asked point-blank.
The two young men inside were stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Chen with disdain. "Who do you think you are? Is it your place to speak?"
With a thought from Jiang Chen, thunder erupted around him. A surge of energy hit the two men, lifting them into the air as they were struck by a barrage of crackling lightning.
"I'll ask one more time: who promoted them?"
Beside them, Jiang Hao was already dumbfounded. What kind of divine technique was this?
Seeing that the two were about to be electrocuted into oblivion, he quickly shouted, "It's the Mars Base! It's those people from the Mars Base! Quickly, put them down!"
Bang!
With a flick of lightning energy, the two were thrown through the wall, crashing onto the plaza outside.
“...”
Jiang Hao wailed in his heart. What a disaster! It's all over!
"Teacher Xiao, Leader Long, who is this?"
Jiang Hao snapped back to his senses and hurriedly looked at Xiao Shuihan and Long Kui!
Xiao Shuihan said calmly, "Academy Head, you don't need to be involved in what happens next."
"I say, Teacher Xiao, can't you just retire in peace? I was planning to enjoy my later years. Let's not cause any more trouble. Finding a helper is useless; those people from outer space will only come after us..."
Jiang Hao whispered urgently into Xiao Shuihan's ear.
Jiang Chen heard him clearly. He turned back and said, "Academy Head Jiang, you'd better remain neutral. Otherwise, when blood splatters on your face later, you might not be able to wipe it clean."
After saying that, Jiang Chen ignored Academy Head Jiang.
Instead, he walked to the hole in the wall and leaped down.
With one foot, he stomped back down on the two men who were just about to crawl up.
"Wow! Is this guy that incredible? He even dares to touch people from the Mars Base?"
"Amazing! The person from the Lunar Base is being stepped on too."
"Which big shot is this? So arrogant!"
A crowd of students had already been drawn in. Having seen people fall from dozens of floors up, they had gathered around long ago.
Fortunately, the physical fitness of these two was extraordinary, so they weren't even seriously injured.
However!
Under Jiang Chen's stomp, several of their ribs instantly snapped.
"Once the base finds out, you... you're finished!"
Even while being stepped on, the two still had fierce glares.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen lifted one foot and gestured to him, "Go ahead and contact them. I'll wait."
"You've got guts. Just you wait."
The man scrambled onto his flying vehicle and immediately contacted the Mars Base, transmitting the image of Jiang Chen back.
After receiving Jiang Chen's image, the 'Flame Security Department' of the Mars Base immediately entered it into the system for an identity check.
However...
There were no historical records of him in the Flame Security Department.
For a moment, Jiang Chen became an undocumented person.
"There's no identity for this person. Should we report this to Xinhuo?"
A member of the Flame Security Department consulted the deputy head.
The deputy head pondered for a moment and then contacted Xinhuo.
Xinhuo was the supreme ruling body of the Mars Base.
And Lord Xinhuo was the strongest lifeform on the Mars Base, said to be hovering on the edge of a Level 3 Lifeform, stronger than a typical peak Level 2 Lifeform.
However, Lord Xinhuo was not at the Mars Base at this time.
Several subordinates received the inquiry from the Flame Security Department.
After initiating a search of the historical archives, they finally discovered Jiang Chen's background in some of Earth's top-secret files.
"Primary promoter of Controlled Nuclear Fusion!"
"Inventor of Carbon-9 molecular material!"
"General Manager of the Heavenly Soldier Project!"
"Discoverer of yin-yang material."
"Academician of Earth's Longke Academy."
"His small fishing boat belonged to the early four great aircraft carriers and held its own division-level designation!"
"Husband of the previous commander of Sister Li, Qin Xue Yao!"
"Biological father of the current commander of Sister Li, Commander Jiang Qiuzhi!"
"Biological father of Jiang Haipeng from the unique Avian Flight Formation!"
"Fifty years ago, he disappeared in a Lightning Blizzard in the Arctic Circle. The earliest Level 2 Lifeform, Xiao Shuihan, once searched for him."
"And now, at this very moment, he has actually returned to life!"
A mountain of data was unearthed one by one from the dusty historical archives.
These senior subordinates of Xinhuo looked at these materials, especially the last entry, and were stunned.
