Time passed slowly.

On this day, the construction of a new generation of aircraft in the United States was completed, and a test flight was carried out in the early hours of the night local time.

It was very fast and very stealthy, and it slipped around space and returned to the base.

Although it is very secretive, it has also been captured by satellites of some countries.

The next day, the report was on the table of the bigwigs of these countries, and many countries began to discuss the matter.

According to the analysis of the information captured by the satellites, this new generation of interstellar vehicles of the United States is not simple.

The speed is fast, definitely faster than the speed of the test flight of the Celestial Empire interstellar vehicle some time ago.

High flexibility, dodging some abandoned satellite wreckage in space was filmed, very flexible.

Equipped with attack weapons, three abandoned satellites and two small meteorites were destroyed by small missiles, and the accuracy is amazing.

Xu Ping'an also received an email report from Aidrius Island, not only a written report, but also a few videos.

Laughed.

The smile on his face slowly expanded, and finally, hahahaha laughed uncontrollably.

The United States deserves to be the United States,

If we dare to directly test our weapons systems, all countries will keep an eye on the US interstellar vehicles in the future to prevent their own interstellar vehicles from being overshadowed by the United States.

"Fanxing, send a notice, let Lu Zi'an come to see me, hurry" Xu Ping'an said directly.

"Good boss," said the artificial intelligence Fanxing, who fell silent.

Dunhuang is also covered with artificial intelligence, as long as it is within the coverage of artificial intelligence, it is very convenient for Xu Ping'an to contact whomever he wants.

It was not nonsense for Darina to worry that she would be replaced by artificial intelligence, but now it seems that a large part of the workload has been replaced by stars.

Within the Apocalypse Group, many secretaries have been laid off in recent years.

Early the next morning, Lu Zi'an took the vehicle sent by the Administration Department to pick up himself at the hotel and went to the headquarters, and soon met Xu Ping'an.

Beckoned Lu Zi'an to sit down and drink tea together.

"The old way, you are also going to change over there and build an interstellar vehicle production factory," Xu Ping'an said directly after taking a sip of tea.

"Mr. Xu, is there something going on over there on Aidelius Island?" Lu Zi'an asked.

Xu Ping'an paused for a moment after listening to it, and then understood what Lu Zi'an meant.

"It's okay on the island of Adrius, you're building one like this, we have to speed up, speed up our Martian pace"

"The U.S. interstellar vehicle has completed its test flight and will soon depart for the Mars expansion base"

"We must hurry up too," Xu Ping'an said, expressing his considerations.

"Boss, I'll go back and arrange it immediately, focusing on which model to produce," Lu Zi'an asked.

When the Pioneer was designed, several models were designed, and the final design was the design of the meteorite capture function.

Cargo transportation type, personnel transportation type, escort attack type, this type of design is also available, but it has been sealed and not used.

"Personnel transport type"

"The production on Aidelius Island is a cargo transportation type, and with the personnel transportation type on your side, it can just form a complementary" Xu Ping'an immediately made a decision.

"Mr. Xu, I hope to send me some skilled manpower from the Aidrius Island, so it will be faster" Lu Zi'an directly put forward his request.

"Yes, I'll call James personally," Xu Ping'an agreed.

The two chatted for a while, and Xu Ping'an suddenly remembered something.

"Old road, all the newly recruited personnel are recruited as recent graduates, mainly with low academic qualifications, and the personnel recruited by your side are to be transferred to Mars"

"In the future, only two kinds of people are the most valuable"

"The first type of person has good physical fitness, as long as he has an ordinary education."

"The second type of people, high-quality personnel, these people are mainly engaged in high-tech development"

"It's going to be hard for people in between, and right now, we don't have a shortage of the second kind of people, the most lacking is the first kind of people."

"You have to know this," Xu Ping'an looked at Lu Zi'an and said directly.

Lu Zi'an frowned, thought for a while, and said with an embarrassed expression on his face, "Mr. Xu, the national conditions of the Celestial Empire are different from those abroad, and it is difficult to leave the homeland."

"You know very well what the future of Mars is"

"It is a fundamental principle that the personnel of the Celestial Empire must become the mainstream of society"

"I've only talked to you about it, I haven't talked about it with anyone else, and it must be kept strictly confidential, especially to James Murphy."

"Do you understand," Xu Ping'an said with a serious expression.

Lu Zi'an's head reacted, and nodded with a serious expression, feeling a lot more pressure on his body.

The two began to discuss some details, and at noon Xu Ping'an called Wu Sikai and Huo Minghai, and the four of them went to have a drink together.

Rest in the afternoon, Lu Zi'an has a good rest, and tomorrow he will return to Dunhuang to start the plan.

The Apocalypse Group has fallen silent, and the outside world has reported on the space programs of various countries, and now, the participation of the whole people in the space program has become the mainstream idea.

Many media outlets have published predictions that it is not a dream to expect humans to move to an alien planet within ten years.

Some bookmakers in Europe have even opened handicaps, which are divided into three stages: ten, twenty and thirty years, with low odds and a long time span.

However, there are many people who buy it, and most of them have the intention of having fun.

Xu Ping'an shook his head and smiled when he saw these news, it is indeed not a dream to move to an alien planet within ten years, but this is not something that anyone can go.

"Xingling, when will the spaceship of that extraterrestrial civilization complete energy storage," Xu Ping'an asked.

"Two more months"

"The level of acoustic fusion energy coefficient is not enough, the spacecraft needs to be purified and converted, if it is replaced with antimatter energy, the energy storage has already been completed"

"In two months, I will build an antimatter energy device inside the spaceship, and then I will go directly to the universe to absorb antimatter energy, and I will be able to recover to its heyday in two months."

"As long as there is no shortage of energy, there is no new or old spaceship, this is the benefit of Ami technology"

"The materials used in this exploration spacecraft are not available in the solar system, and it is not certain whether the Milky Way has such materials," Star Spirit said directly.

"When the ship is full of energy, let's explore, first the solar system, then the Milky Way"

"Don't forget to take me up to experience it," Xu Ping'an said directly.

Xing Ling was silent and did not reply, Xu Ping'an smiled awkwardly and did not ask again.

After arranging these things, Xu Ping'an went straight to work.

The next day, Xu Ping'an went to work as usual, rested in the office without going home at noon, and received a notice from the stars after waking up in the afternoon.

"Boss, Darina asked me to remind the boss that the United States has just released a new statement" The voice of the stars rang out.

"Turn on my computer, bring up the relevant news, I'll check it later" Xu Ping'an said with a teacup, and then began to drink tea.

Not far from Xu Ping'an's desk, the computer began to start automatically, and a video soon appeared on the screen, which was a live video of the US statement.

After drinking two cups of tea, Xu Ping'an stood up and returned to his desk to start checking.

The United States issued a statement that the new-generation interstellar vehicle Endeavour has completed its test flight and will depart for Mars in a week with various supplies.

The main U.S. base on Mars will be expanded, and a picture of the expanded Mars base has been released.

It's really beautiful, definitely comparable to the alien base in a science fiction movie.

A large, transparent shield envelops the entire base, which is littered with trees and fountains.

Some pedestrians are walking back and forth, and some people are sitting on chairs to relax, which is very comfortable.

Insiders look at the doorway, and laymen look at the liveliness.

Xu Ping'an looked very carefully and felt that it was impossible for the United States to realize this kind of design.

First of all, this kind of transparent protective cover is not so easy to produce, Tianqi Group has not mastered this material, Xu Ping'an does not believe that the United States can develop this material.

The distance between Mars and the Sun is farther than that of the Earth, so the surface temperature is lower than that of the Earth, and the Martian atmosphere is thin and dry, with poor thermal insulation performance, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, with a temperature difference of about 100 °C.

Near the equator, the temperature can reach 20°C during the day and drop to around -80°C at night. The temperature at the poles of Mars is even lower, reaching as low as -139°C

Opaque materials can resist this temperature difference, and transparent materials are really difficult to resist this temperature difference, or they will crumble directly in a few days.

The Mars base of the United States will expand, but it will not reach this level, and it will be seen when the time comes, anyway, the satellites of the Apocalypse Group are already in place.

I'll send back the picture in time.

After reading it, Xu Ping'an didn't care.

Abroad.

In Colombia, an abandoned town more than a hundred miles away from the Apocalypse Botanical Garden, a convoy of more than a dozen cars entered the town.

It also includes nine box trucks.

The vehicle stopped in the center of the town, and thirty-four people alighted, all dressed in American special operations uniforms, and immediately began to assemble.

The four teams dispersed and set off in four directions, each with a box truck.

After arriving at the edge of the town, I immediately began to open the car door and move out a lot of equipment, and began to arrange it on the spot, all of which were monitoring equipment.

There are also people in the center of the town who are setting up solar installations, setting up antennas, and at the same time, getting a place to stay before dark.

Everybody knows they're going to be here for a while.

Looking at the movements of these people, they are obviously all familiar with each other, and the wiring installation equipment is very proficient, and they are all very hidden.

If you walk into a town without knowing it, you will never notice that there is a surveillance device here.

Time passed slowly, and a house in the center of the town had been cleaned out, and after cleaning the dust, it was covered with cloth and could be used directly.

Major Thomas, who works for a special forces, was conferring with his two deputies, Johnson and Mike, and a deputy director of the C.I.A., on the balcony on the second floor of the room.

The deputy director of the CIA is also a woman, and she is still very good-looking, and her name is Emily.

"Emily, I'll ask you again, is there really a prehistoric relic in the Apocalypse Botanical Garden that surpasses modern technology?" asked Thomas with a serious expression.

"Thomas, I can tell you responsibly that this is true"

"From what we've got, there's really a prehistoric site here that surpasses modern technology," Emily said with certainty.

"Since you're sure, we'll just send troops in to inspect it, why sneak around"

"Will Colombia still oppose our entry into their country?"

"Second, if there are really relics of prehistoric civilization beyond modern technology in this plant base of the Apocalypse Group, why didn't the Apocalypse Group send scientific and technological personnel to carry out research?"

"I've retrieved a list of people who have come to this Apocalypse Botanical Garden in the past two years, including security personnel, archaeologists, and botanical researchers."

"It's just that there are no scientists who study prehistoric civilizations, how do you explain this?" Thomas asked calmly.

Emily rubbed her head and said in her heart, who the said that these people are all people with chest muscles and no brains, each one is smarter than the other.

"That's what we're trying to figure out"

"According to the intelligence, a very strong armed team has also come, and the target is the Apocalypse Botanical Garden"

"Evacuate after fighting with the security personnel of the Apocalypse Botanical Garden, according to our investigation, it is likely to come from the Celestial Empire, South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, these countries"

"The Celestial Empire is the most likely, according to the news from the people we planted in the Celestial Empire, there is a problem with the death of archaeologist Zhou Xun in the Apocalypse Botanical Garden"

"Probably an unnatural death"

"The five students led by Zhou Xun may know a little something, but our people found that someone was secretly staring at these people."

"We sent personnel to investigate and analyze those who were in the shadows, and finally concluded that these people belonged to the security department of the Apocalypse Group with the greatest likelihood."

"You should know Xu Ping'an's temperament, if he finds out that the matter is exposed, he will 100% blow up the ruins directly, and then pretend that he is also a victim"

"Maybe it will be pushed on our country"

"The latest news, two months ago, all the personnel of the Apocalypse Botanical Garden were replaced"

"Plant researchers, ordinary workers, security personnel, none of them remained, all of them were replaced"

"And, as far as we know, the Apocalypse Group has secretly transported a lot of materials, and we don't know what the materials are."

"So, we can only do this in secret"

"This time, our task is to find a way to determine whether there is a prehistoric civilization in the Apocalypse Botanical Park that surpasses modern technology."

"If there is, our director will go to the Black Palace immediately, and the support will be sent immediately, a large force"

"We have half a year, just find out before the Apocalypse Group sends scientific researchers," Emily said directly.

Thomas nodded, the expression on his face not much lighter, even if there was plenty of time.

The security personnel of the Apocalypse Group are not so easy to deal with, and the security personnel who can assist important locations are mercenaries with actual combat experience.

Combat effectiveness should not be underestimated!
