Qi Lin snapped out of her daze as if waking from a dream. She placed her hand on the car door, about to say something to Han Fei.
Just then.
A phone call came in.
Han Fei answered.
"Hello? I understand, delayed release. Communications are a huge market. With Secretary Hexi's communication improvements, we will win with an absolute advantage. Don't do anything shady, and ensure good quality! Our phones shouldn't be like..."
As Han Fei spoke, he waved at Qi Lin. "That's all, you guys head back first."
He then instructed the driver to ensure she got home safely.
Afterward, he got into his own car.
Qi Lin was a little stunned.
She retracted her hand and lowered her head.
"...Sigh..."
He Weilan, standing beside her, twitched at the corner of his mouth. What was with this melodramatic feeling?
Never mind, it wasn't appropriate anyway. This is for the best. It'll be fine in a few months.
Romance and love are so troublesome.
When I get back, I'll take Qi Lin to the gym more often. Only exercise and muscles can bring true happiness.
I believe this will help her forget all the unpleasantness.
He Weilan nodded, deeply convinced of his own reasoning.
Two days later.
He boarded a private jet, taking off and leaving the country for the Graveyard of Empires, no, the Dawn Alliance.
Han Fei knew.
This departure.
Would change everything.
Chapter 42: Third Kind Contact (1) Initial Thoughts and the Path of Heresy
"Quick, quick, quick!"
"If this isn't done today, you're all out!"
"You over there, have you cleaned up? No? Then hurry up! Everyone who comes in must have clean shoes. If they're not clean, you lick them clean!!"
"Also, those who can remain in the political sphere now must have learned Chinese. Remember to speak Chinese from now on."
"Get moving!"
"The Alliance Leader is arriving soon. If anyone wants to die, do it now, but don't drag us down with you..."
The former Graveyard of Empires region, now the Dawn Alliance.
The capital city.
A bald, pot-bellied man wearing glasses was roaring.
Under his tirade, the staff around him scurried about, not daring to linger for even a moment.
Seeing this.
Manos finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just moments ago, he had received news that the rarely-seen, legendary Alliance Leader was about to arrive in the capital.
This filled him with both panic and excitement.
The Alliance Leader had a complex reputation within the Dawn Alliance.
He was a hardliner who had issued numerous purges, leading to countless deaths. Rumor had it that another large-scale purge in the past few days was also under his command, which naturally inspired fear. Yet, he was also a reformer who had brought them tangible benefits.
People loved and hated him.
The plane landed.
Han Fei, dressed in a black overcoat, emerged from the airport surrounded by a crowd. Beside him was Hexi, dressed in a secretary's outfit, wearing glasses, her hair tied up in a bun, exuding a gentle aura that seemed somewhat precarious.
The area outside the airport had already been cleared in advance.
No one dared to show up foolishly.
Anyone appearing now would most likely be an assassin.
As he stepped out of the airport and onto a street.
Suddenly.
He stopped in his tracks.
Looking at the vendors selling soy milk and fried dough sticks on the street, his expression shifted slightly.
The streets and alleys all had a distinctly domestic style.
This should be related to the infrastructure team and the responsible personnel who were invited.
This is a cultural attribute.
It's unavoidable.
"Alliance Leader, this way please."
Soon, Han Fei arrived at a palace.
A palace.
A fusion of Eastern and Western styles.
"A palace?"
The person in charge next to him nodded repeatedly. "You are the Alliance Leader. In ancient Huaxia, that would be a king. In the West, you would also be a king. How could you not have a palace to match your status?"
Han Fei curled his lips, knowing this was deliberate flattery.
But he didn't refuse and walked straight in.
Dawn Alliance.
"Master, the population of the Dawn Alliance is counted as: thirteen million. Various races are mixed, but through years of immigration and consolidation of the South Ocean region, Caucasians and Asians are now the main groups, accounting for about ten million."
"Mm, the ideological education of teenagers and young children must be prioritized."
Han Fei then inspected the economy, people's livelihood, military, and other aspects. After seeing them firsthand, he made some changes.
"Alright, let's talk about the current situation of the Extreme Warriors."
Black Star's voice sounded.
"The total number of Extreme Warriors is currently thirty thousand. All types of equipment are fully equipped, maintaining full combat effectiveness. Currently, excluding the three thousand serving as the capital city's defense force, the other twenty-seven thousand have been assembled in the military zone outside the city, ready to respond to the Master's commands at any time."
"The Gene Code is not a problem, right?"
"Every Blood Orchid Potion currently produced has a Gene Code embedded. None have been activated yet."
"Mm, good. It seems our screening hasn't had any issues for now."
Gene Code.
This was a result of the Super Gene technology traded from Deno, and then modified by Hexi.
As for its main purpose, there was no need to elaborate.
It was just a necessary means.
"Alright, let's deal with these matters as soon as possible. Black Star, is the Tianxuan Star conquest plan ready?"
"It's completed."
"Good, place the teleportation portal in the designated location. We'll begin the conquest tonight!"
"Operation codename: Third Kind Contact!"
Earth once had a wave of thought about the existence of aliens, and someone proposed a theory.
Zero Kind Contact: Distant sighting.
First Kind Contact: Close-range sighting.
Second Kind Contact: Humans witness or come into contact with their遗留痕迹 (remains/traces).
Third Kind Contact: Direct contact with aliens, with communication and exchange.
(I modified this! The original words were not like this, for the convenience of the plot)
Dawn Alliance, outside the capital.
A certain military area.
That's right.
This was the experimental area chosen by Han Fei. Tens of thousands of super soldiers, tanks, cannons, laser mechas, with layers of defense, there was no safer place than this!
Here, a massive underground building had been cleared out.
A large number of personnel moved in.
Hexi was arranging for people to install the teleportation portal.
She then directed personnel to set up various instruments and divide the responsibilities of each researcher and professor.
Those old professors and doctors had already been convinced by Hexi in the previous days. There was no choice. Faced with a monster who had surpassed them in just a few days, they had no choice but to be convinced!
Therefore, they, who were usually stubborn, did not show any dissatisfaction with Hexi's orders and obediently followed them.
Coupled with the deployment of security personnel from various locations.
For a time, the entire underground experimental base looked extremely busy.
Everything was settled by noon the next day.
The experiment was then officially declared to have begun.
A large number of troops began to enter in batches, with corresponding researchers assigned to each team based on their different responsibilities.
Meanwhile, the Extreme Warriors also split into many small teams, ready to enter at any moment.
Due to the size of the teleportation portal, Hexi increased the amount of teleportation fluid and expanded the portal, which allowed a large number of troops to enter.
However, this greatly reduced the storage of teleportation fluid.
Considering the recycling and loss of the teleportation fluid, it was not suitable for another transfer. It would be best to keep this teleportation portal fixed here permanently for maximum effect.
Teams of fully armed soldiers, carrying a complete set of technology decades ahead of Earth, entered in an orderly fashion.
But the numbers were still not large.
After all, they were facing an entire planet.
Even a million troops wouldn't be considered many.
With only about ten thousand people going in, Han Fei felt deeply uneasy, but this was already the most loyal and elite force Han Fei could select without affecting the outside world.
As for the over twenty thousand Extreme Warriors in the military area above.
He had no plans to deploy them for the time being.
"There's still too little time for development."
"There are too few people, especially loyal ones."
