Chapter 142: Solar System Battle Command

Boarding the spaceship again, Colonel Chu’s state of mind was entirely different.

The first time he had traveled in a disc-shaped spaceship piloted by Zhao Yu, returning from overseas to Da Xia in just two minutes. It had genuinely astounded them. Back then, he was consumed by envy, the best way to describe his feeling would be ‘green-eyed.’

Now, he was going to the moon as an advisor, without the panic he felt when he first saw Aliens.

“When we get there, you focus on giving advice and making plans; I’ll handle the rest,” he said.

The strategists around Colonel Chu were all young people, most of them just promoted out of the norm and added to the think tank that day.

“Thank you for the reminder, Senator Chu…”

“Don’t call me Senator Chu anymore. I stopped being a councilor when I left the Earth…”

While they were talking, the spaceship had already reached the moon.

“So fast?!”

Colonel Chu was surprised, looking out the window, he found they were indeed already on the moon.

“Did it take less than two minutes to get to the moon?!”

He was a bit incredulous.

In the earliest times, a spaceship to the moon would need half a day to reach the Earth; later, it was shortened to an hour and forty minutes.

Now, they could traverse 380,000 kilometers in just two minutes. It was unheard of.

The spaceship docked at the spaceport. As the group looked around, a robot appeared, leading them to transfer to a magnetic levitation car.

As the car descended to the ground, Colonel Chu and others finally saw the legendary Yuean City.

“It’s so magnificent…”

They were all amazed.

In their imagination, Yuean City was situated deep underground, within a massive steel structure.

But the actual Yuean City was above ground, bustling with activity, a picture of tranquility.

At the top of the city, a thin layer of light could be seen, a simulation of the atmosphere system.

Just as they wondered if their office location was in Yuean City, the car took them away, slowly landing a hundred kilometers away.

On the ground, there stood a solitary building with the words ‘Solar System Combat Command’ at the top.

Outside this building, there was another thin film, with several humanoid figures waiting on the other side.

“Hiss-!”

The car descended within the thin film, and the doors automatically opened.

The people exchanged glances, and under Colonel Chu’s lead, they stepped out of the car. Someone took a soft breath; the air was even fresher than on the Blue Planet.

But Colonel Chu didn’t bother with these. His gaze was directed at the row of figures, finding at the head of the line a familiar face – Zhao Yu.

Behind Zhao Yu stood a row of robots.

“Welcome!”

Zhao Yu greeted them with a smile.

Seeing this, Colonel Chu quickly led his team forward, saying with a beaming smile, “Mr. Zhao Yu, we meet again. I hope all has been well…”

There were a few pleasantries exchanged.

Zhao Yu got straight to the point, “I am the temporary commander of the Solar System Combat Command…”

Colonel Chu was shocked. He had assumed that Zhao Yu was there to greet them and take them to meet the Pangu people.

Who would have known that Zhao Yu held the highest position in the Solar System Combat Command?!

Zhao Yu was originally from the Earth. Did the Pangu people trust him so much?

“You will not be here for nothing, the role of an advisor in the Solar System Combat Command is equivalent to an El-level employee, and you will receive corresponding benefits…”

“In addition to the dormitory provided by the Combat Command, I have also arranged houses for you in Yuean City, where you can stay during your time off…”

After giving everyone a quick tour of the Command Building and a brief introduction, Zhao Yu said, “Since you are new here, why not take some time to familiarize yourself with the environment, and start work tomorrow?”

“No need…”

Colonel Chu, smiling. “It only took us a few minutes to get here from the Earth. We are well rested and ready to start work…”

Zhao Yu nodded and led them to the command center.

Upon entering the command center, Colonel Chu was surprised. The layout was entirely different from that on the Earth.

There were no large screens or staff members. It looked more like a meeting room with a round table and chairs all around.

“Please, have a seat…”

Once everyone was seated, Zhao Yu casually tapped on the table. A hologram appeared, and a set of documents appeared in front of each person.

“The documents in front of you contain detailed information about both our side and the enemy, including various types of battleships and weapons, as well as the actions of the Moro fleet after they arrived in the solar system…”

Everyone’s eyes lit up, and they eagerly started reading.

Wormholes, real-time gravitational wave detector monitoring of spaceship movements, data of different types of warships, particle black holes, and more. Each piece of content was engrossing to them.

“A ship self-destructing with a particle black hole collapse bomb can blow up an entire planet…”

“This tactic is terrifying…”

“The energy conversion efficiency of a particle black hole is twenty times that of third-generation nuclear fusion…”

Colonel Chu was somewhat shocked. They on the Earth had not even researched first-generation nuclear fusion yet, and their enemies and the Pangu civilization had already surpassed nuclear fusion, entering a new field.

“The Moro fleet is smaller than imagined, with only a hundred or so ships, and ten have already been destroyed…”

Colonel Chu couldn’t help asking, “May I know, what is the level of our Pangu civilization’s technology?”

“I don’t know!”

Zhao Yu shook his head, saying, “The Pangu civilization is very far from our solar system, even using wormholes to cross the distance takes a long time…”

“Distant water can’t put out a nearby fire. We have to handle the Moro fleet ourselves…”

Remembering the speed changes of the lunar spaceship’s several trips to and from the Earth. Colonel Chu couldn’t help asking, “1 noticed that when the spaceship first appeared, it seemed to only be equipped with second-generation nuclear fusion. It was later upgraded gradually. What’s the reason for this?”

“It’s because the technology provided by the Pangu civilization takes time to be transformed into technological products…”

Not wanting to stir up too many speculations, Zhao Yu left it at that and continued, “The technological level of the Moro fleet is roughly 2.7, while our moon is just beginning to reach the 2.0 level…”

With the system in place, the technological level of his base was sure to keep rising. This is why he didn’t set a limit for the Pangu civilization, which made it easier to explain.

Compared to him owning a base that could be upgraded, it was much more intimidating to have an entire Pangu civilization backing him up. It deterred others from getting any wrong ideas.

After all, if he had a base on his own, someone might get tempted.

But with the entire Pangu civilization behind him, no one would dare to harbor any ill thoughts. They would only fear the strength of the Pangu civilization.

While Colonel Chu and the others were checking the data and asking about the Moro fleet, Zhao Yu answered all their questions.

An hour later, seeing that everyone had a good understanding of both sides, Zhao Yu finally asked, “What are your thoughts on this war?”
