Chapter 966: Chapter 694: Don’t Want to Wait Even a Second

"Really? Could this be an extraterrestrial conspiracy?" Looking at the military assembly at Tree City, some doubted the authenticity of the news, while others, who had been climbing the wrong ’technology tree,’ left Tree City in their vehicles, ready to check out the places where the warships had landed.

Tree City did not impose any strict blockades in this regard, as long as one’s identity could be confirmed, they could leave the city.

The apparent lack of any intent to conceal made the previous dragon propaganda seem much more credible.

"Is it over?" Ahn Ke in the laboratory removed her walkie-talkie and without looking at the corpse lying on the experimental table, a rebel’s body—such things were everywhere, like weeds.

Like a group hating its own country, nothing on their planet was good enough, while everything from the outside seemed better. Some of the rebels were particularly eager to defect to the extraterrestrials, claiming the foreknowledge of the wise.

It was these rebels that allowed her to conduct her research freely; those things weren’t well-liked in this world. The main fleet of the extraterrestrials was blocked by the World Tree outside the planet, yet these rebels always thought about colluding with extraterrestrials, causing quite a bit of destruction to the planet.

By sending them to the experimental table, she actually contributed to the natives of Tree Planet.

Upon hearing that extraterrestrial warships had been captured, Ahn Ke couldn’t care less about her research; after all, there was a plentiful supply of rebel corpses. She could set it aside now and continue later.

Leaving the laboratory, she encountered Green Dragon Garel, who had just come out from the other side.

"I’m interested in the extraterrestrial warships as well," Garel said upon meeting her.

In Dusk Territory, the descending fleet landed neatly on a massive ’airport’ formed by the roots of the World Tree, which also constituted the World Tree’s red line. Upon that airport, should any abnormality arise with these warships, the World Tree could control or even destroy them.

The warships were untouchable by the World Tree when in outer space, but on Tree Planet, it was a different story; the World Tree could easily destroy these warships.

"Later, let some professionals study them, maybe we could replicate the flagship’s main cannon, and install a bunch of them directly on the World Tree. That way, if any extraterrestrials come here again, we can directly bombard them."

"That’s a good idea," Senluo agreed. Zheng Yichen’s proposal wasn’t bad at all; what the World Tree lacked was long-range attack capabilities, and within its atmosphere, all attacks were tantamount to melee combat.

If they could acquire the main cannon of an extraterrestrial flagship, the shortfall in long-range attacks could be compensated.

"Have your Dusk mercenaries ready the tickets," Zheng Yichen said as he headed toward the Dusk Cathedral, then writing letters to Chiang Wei and Diplomat Nelly of the Firmament Wheel.

While waiting for their responses, two Luminous Holy Maidens were the first to arrive. Upon arriving, Lillian immediately sought out Zheng Yichen: "How strong are the extraterrestrials? Are they formidable?"

"That depends on the situation. It’s quite troublesome in a head-on battle, but once I infiltrated alone, it got much easier. Their warships’ internal defenses are not strong, and if I wanted to resolve things quickly, it’s easy, just a Divine Domain would do."

"...Divine Domain?" Lillian’s mouth twitched slightly—a Divine Domain was not something that just anyone could wield. Zheng Yichen made it sound simple, but in reality, it was another matter: "Can I take a look at those warships?"

"Let Tanshia Firlo accompany you," Zheng Yichen arranged for the small white dragon, who was bored at the moment, to go with her. Having just come through a battle, White felt excited and lively instead of tired.

Afterward, others arrived one after another. Ahn Ke received the small gift she currently desired: knowledge about extraterrestrial biology. After translation by Lilith, Ahn Ke read it without any barrier.

Then, Katrina and her group obtained the magical research findings of the quadruped extraterrestrial beings. After some thought, Zheng Yichen decided to share this knowledge with Green Dragon Garel, who was about to receive seeds from the World Tree, while Garel still needed to make an effort.

This material could help the green dragon explore new possibilities for this world.

As for the warships... they were Zheng Yichen’s personal spoils of war. It didn’t matter if they couldn’t be taken away right now; they could be stored here for the time being, and later be moved when a better way to transport them was found. Those were warships usable in cosmic navigation, after all, and would not deteriorate.

...

"An Alien World Research Team? Soon to study captured extraterrestrial warships? ... Isn’t that outrageous?" Chiang Wei looked at the information sent by Zheng Yichen with an expression of bafflement and incomprehension. How was she to bring an entire team over? Could that small room even fit so many people?

Feeling somewhat perplexed, but recognizing the importance of the matter, a professional research team quickly assembled, taking no more than half a day.

Many of the members were working on important research projects, and their withdrawal had a significant impact on those projects. However, once they knew what they were to do, they tossed their tasks to their students without hesitation.

They weren’t expecting any breakthroughs in those projects anymore; maintaining the current state was enough. The rest? They would deal with it after returning from studying the extraterrestrial warships!

No one invited wanted to miss this operation, but considering the ’transport pressure,’ the number of people was limited to just over a hundred, all meticulously registered.

This was because the place they were going to was an alien world...

"What? I have to go too??" Chiang Wei looked at her soft and harmless assistant by her side and couldn’t help but reach out to scratch her hair, "What am I going over there for?"

According to the information sent by Zheng Yichen, that world seemed quite boring. Although it had a giant tree that blocked out the sky, the network and technological developments of that world were very backward. Going over there would surely bore her to death... right?

"It’s because you’re also a top-tier mechanic," Chiang Wei’s assistant, Tian Wenwen, hurriedly explained the reason.

Chiang Wei couldn’t help but sigh, "What does this identity count for among these people?"

Looking at the data she had pulled up, aside from some personnel responsible for security, the remaining eighty or so were the crème de la crème of top scientists—losing even one would be a heavy loss.

Her identity as a top-tier mechanic really wasn’t anything special.

Moreover, this trip would last at least half a year if not several years; she could die of boredom.

"You don’t have to worry about that, there will be a Dusk mercenary accompanying you, she will bring you back."

"Um, that sounds okay then." With such an arrangement, Chiang Wei was able to accept it.

She didn’t say anything more but began to prepare. Speaking of which, it had been a long time since she had directly met Zheng Yichen. She wondered how he was doing now.

On the contrary, she herself had benefited greatly from the many local specialties he had sent over, just the physical enhancements alone meant that even though she spent every day sitting on the side in Dusk Cathedral, her physical condition wouldn’t deteriorate.

"There’s also the team from the other world... well, I’m not the main researcher, so I won’t be under too much pressure." In the changing room, Chiang Wei looked at herself in the mirror and quickly relaxed. The other world referred to the world of the Firmament Wheel.

The technology of that world was even more advanced. Chiang Wei had looked into the Firmament Wheel, and that sort of thing, with just a boost in cosmic navigation speed, would be a standard spaceship.

After changing into her clothes and taking her suitcase, and having a communication with her mother, Chiang Wei returned to Dusk Territory. There was less than an hour left before the appointed time, which made her nervous again.

Zheng Yichen arrived very punctually. Seeing Zheng Yichen, Chiang Wei showed a smile that had been long missing, "Long time no see... Uh, why is your hair white?"

This reminded her of some rather Chuuni (middle-school syndrome) young people. Often interacting with information online, many young people liked to shout about liking those white hair and red eyes. Occasionally, she looked at related photos and also found them pretty good-looking.

However, upon seeing another white-haired, red-eyed girl that Zheng Yichen was pulling along, Chiang Wei’s expression became a bit strained, "You, you have kids now?"

Not only that, but on Zheng Yichen’s other side stood a woman who looked very maternal and had a great figure.

"These are dragons, she’s also a dragon." Zheng Yichen picked up Tanshia Firlo, who had been released from his internal space since he came to this world, "I’ve been away from this world for less than a year, how could I have a child this big?"

Besides, it wouldn’t be so easy for him to have children. There’s no need to delve into the reasons. Ahn Ke had also done some experiments. Anyway, under the premise of a mismatch in physical differences, it was too difficult to produce offspring, and even if they did, it could be fatal.

"Oh, dragons—how cute." Chiang Wei walked over, wanting to get closer to Tanshia Firlo, but as she reached into her pocket, she realized she didn’t have anything suitable to present; she didn’t know there would be children.

"Minister, you can wait to catch up on old times. Everyone can’t wait any longer." Tian Wenwen whispered into Chiang Wei’s ear.

Because Chiang Wei was most familiar with Zheng Yichen, she was the one to communicate here.

"So we’re leaving now?"

"Let’s go. As for the number of people, don’t worry too much. I have an internal space that can take everyone. It won’t take us long to get to the next place."

When it came to the matter of spacecraft tools and transporting a large number of people in different worlds, Dusk didn’t care. Having a spatial tool was an ability in itself; not to mention transporting a hundred-plus people, Dusk wouldn’t mind even if someone could transport millions at a time.

No ability? Then forget about it.

"How do we do this?"

"Simple, we go outside first." Zheng Yichen snapped his fingers in an area outside the Dusk Cathedral that had been cleared, and a Teleportation Array emerged, "Just go in, it might be a bit cramped inside, but the wait won’t be more than half an hour."

The people from the Firmament Wheel world were also ready, he was very punctual, and they wouldn’t make him wait too long.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let’s hurry up and set off." Someone couldn’t wait any longer and walked towards the Teleportation Array. Afraid of the unknown? What a joke! The flagship of extraterrestrial beings was waiting for them, what did this bit of unknown matter?

The scientists present didn’t want to wait another second!
