At the Flower Planter Space Development Center, tens of thousands of staff members are busy in the sprawling complex.

This newly established space development center, located near the port of Zhoushan in Ningbo, has been built from scratch in less than two months under the terror mobilization capability of the state apparatus.

It was originally a semi-public military base, but the flower growers have expanded on a large scale, and more high-rise buildings and factories can be seen around the huge complex.

To this end, the planter has mobilized the backbone of the three major aerospace centers, which can be described as a gathering of elites and brings together a large number of aerospace talents from all over the country.

The threat of the Gemini civilization is imminent, and at the same time, under the stimulation of the ghost captain, all countries have coincidentally increased their investment in the space industry and have established their own space development agencies.

Not only the flower planters, but also the countries of the United States and Europa, almost all of them are developing the aerospace industry with the strength of the whole country.

This is a civilized reactive move, and the major forces that have been focusing on infighting have finally set their sights on the infinite universe that has been slowly developing under the threat of a powerful enemy.

During this period of time, as long as the technology stocks that are related to the concept of space have become the hottest hot in the world today, countless capital has frantically poured into this emerging industry destined to rise with human development, hoping to get a piece of the huge profit cake in the future.

Zhou Hai, the head of the Space Development Center, who had just taken office, looked at the busy scene outside the glass window, and a sense of pride surged in his heart...... It's the future of humanity!

At that moment, there was a knock on the door and his secretary walked in. "Minister, the new instructions from above, let's vacate an area as soon as possible and arrange security according to the secrecy level A!"

After Zhou Haihai took office, his rank was raised by half a level, and he is now an official of high-ranking officials.

"Huh? Who is it for? Zhou Hai asked strangely.

The minimum security level of this base is C, but those that can reach A-level are already high-class.

"It's that special scientific community." The secretary whispered.

"Oh! It turned out to be them! Zhou Hai was stunned.

There is a news circulating in the country of the flower planter, it is said that a group of nearly 1,000 senior scientists have been gathered to carry out relevant scientific and technological research in the field of space in the virtual world of the science and technology tree, and the results are remarkable, and a large number of important scientific and technological breakthroughs have been made by them during this time.

This group of people is actually the users of the 300 special permission helmets provided by Nie Yun, they have a unique space scientific research environment, and they are also opened by Yu Lao and others from time to time, and the progress of scientific research is unparalleled!

This is also the result of Nie Yun's intention, allies are to be graded, whether from an emotional or practical point of view, the flower planter is Nie Yun's preferred special ally!

The United States is ambitious, Europa is scattered, the woolly bear is strong and the middle is dry, other countries are either too weak, or they are lazy and completely unsupportable, hard-working and tenacious Chinese people are undoubtedly the best partners and human resources.

"Choose a location at the core of the scientific research area and arrange it according to the highest treatment. Look outside, these advanced equipment we get, they are indispensable, this is a group of baby bumps, we must not slack off! Zhou Hai pointed to the office area outside and said solemnly.

The Space Development Center has attracted the attention of high-level officials, and it is an absolute core industry of the future, with the most advanced equipment used inside, and many of the new products in the office area are not seen on the market, and some are even directly moved from the laboratory.

The large curved screen in the center, face recognition guards, and the newly developed three-dimensional projection equipment are also used in some places, although the effect is not very perfect, but it still makes people feel like the future is coming, as if the scene in a science fiction movie is reproduced.

On a row of dedicated recliners next to the office area, many people are quietly wearing helmets and immersed in the virtual world, in stark contrast to the busy people outside, but they seem to be very coordinated, and the staff is no longer surprised by this combination of virtual and real work.

It has been detached from the concept of traditional office, and there is a vague shadow of the future world of human beings......

Under the influence of the population base and educational environment, the flower grower has a large number of scientific research reserve talents, although the innovation ability is slightly insufficient, but in terms of the digestion speed of science and technology, only a few countries in the world can match!

During this period of time, under the guidance and encouragement of the national power, a large number of advanced technologies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, coupled with Nie Yun's slight resource tilt, the scientific and technological strength of the flower grower has been improving at a jaw-dropping speed.

And this office location is only a small microcosm of the explosion of science and technology, it has not yet affected the whole society, and only a small number of people feel the steps from the future at this moment.

However, the power of the market and capital is quietly operating under the impetus of interests, and they will use the power of capital to slowly spread this influence from top to bottom by investing in emerging technologies and updating production line equipment, and the whole world is poised to enter a stage of scientific and technological development!

"Okay, subordinates get it! But...... We don't have enough places, the second phase of the expansion project is still underway, and when this group of people enters, I'm afraid there will be some overcrowding. The secretary frowned.

"Then let the engineering department hurry up, and then find the engineering team to start work day and night, but the quality must be guaranteed!

Although the Gemini civilization has been temporarily evacuated, the threat is still there, and we are now in a race against other countries, and the development of space is lagging behind step by step!

Look at people's ...... Ahem! In short, the progress arranged above must not be delayed! Zhou Hai wanted to give the example of Captain Ghost, but he swallowed back when the words came to his lips.

It's too big a gap, and taking him as an example is really a slap in the face.

"This ...... The deadline is a bit tight, but I'll ask the engineering department to hurry.

But Minister, I still don't understand why we have to rebuild here because countries are generally expanding on the basis of existing space centers? Isn't that more time-consuming and labor-intensive?

In addition to a port that is convenient for transportation, it does not seem to have a special resource advantage, so why choose this location? The secretary asked, confused.

"This matter is said to have been decided after a long time of discussion at the meeting, and why, the people above are very tight, and even I don't know very well......" Zhou Hai said this, his expression was a little solemn.

He is a high-ranking official and the head of the Space Development Center, and he doesn't even know why he chose the location here, which shows the degree of confidentiality of this matter.

"Zhou ...... Minister Zhou! Go out...... Something is wrong! At this moment, a staff member suddenly ran out of breath outside, and rushed in before he could even knock on the door.

As soon as Zhou Hai saw this posture, he immediately stood up with a nervous face and asked urgently, "What's wrong?" Are there any casualties? ”

He really can't help but be nervous, this is the focus of national attention, if something serious happens, he, the minister, must do it.

"No...... Not an accident, alas! Look there! The man pointed out the window and said urgently.

Hearing this, Zhou Hai and the secretary turned their heads to look out of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office.

At this time, under the huge screen in the center, there was already a circle of people, and everyone was looking at the central screen with a surprised face, watching the appearance of everyone's mouths, if it weren't for the good soundproofing of this office, they should have been able to hear exclamations a long time ago.

However, Zhou Hai was in no mood to care about the people around him at this time, and his eyes were staring directly at the screen......

……

Earth, Atlantis.

"Atlantis! Ignition! With the command of the codename, the originally calm island suddenly shook slightly, the ground was boiling with gravel, and the Atlantis headquarters building with the whirlpool logo was suddenly surrounded by smoke and dust.

"......Boom" four blazing tail flames scorched the ground, and the strong recoil force made the entire huge saucer-shaped building shake slightly, and then slowly but firmly floated into the air!

The birds and beasts on the island are scattered, and the fish on the bottom of the sea are fleeing in panic!

With such a big movement, it is naturally impossible to hide it from someone who cares, and the ships of various countries that have been monitoring Atlantis Island openly and secretly have naturally discovered the abnormality here.

"Lying ...... it! That...... That building was a flying saucer! Captain Ghost's second ship has appeared! ”

"Quick! Quickly turn the screen back to China, Captain Ghost is making trouble again! ”

"What does it want to do at this time? Someone can't mess with Captain Ghost, right? ”

“……”

Countless people exclaimed, sweating profusely, to report the emergency.

Hearing the news, the nations watched the huge flying saucer nervously, guessing the purpose of its lift-off at this time.

Then, under the close attention of various countries, this huge spaceship rose higher and higher, and gradually disappeared into the clouds......

"Uh...... Is it going to fly into outer space? ”

"Looks like so, right? But aren't all the Gemini civilizations retreating, and they still need to increase their troops? ”

“……”

Amid the convulsive speculation of all the forces, half an hour later, the spaceship, named Atlantis by Nie Yun, reached the predetermined synchronous orbit, and then a small missile was fired from the bottom of the spacecraft.

The missile adjusts its posture through its tail, and plunges straight into the atmosphere, gradually turning red.

The governments that observed this scene were instantly devastated.

"! It's a missile! Captain Ghost, what is this for? Attack the Earth? ”

"The cunning rabbit is dead, the lackey is cooking, he is going to unload the mill and kill the donkey...... This soul is faint! ”

"Quick! Intercept it! Someone exclaimed in despair.

"It's too fast, we simply don't have the ability to intercept such an attack!"

"Nope! No, look at the back of the missile, it looks like there's something tied to it! ”

“……”

In the midst of countless exclamations, the missile was like a meteor, streaking over the island of Atlantis and burrowing straight into the ground in the center of the island!

"Boom!" A column of smoke tens of meters high rose into the air!

There were no earth-shattering explosions, no endless light and heat, nothing happened......

And when the smoke cleared, the frightened people realized that there was one more thing on the island of Atlantis, which was a rope that had not reached the clouds, as if there was no end.

The silver-white metal cable was pulled straight, connecting the earth at one end and deep into the void at the other, like a bridge between heaven and earth!

"This ...... This is ......" Someone saw the doorway from it, and couldn't help but beat wildly in their hearts.

That kind of thing? Impossible, right? So thin metal rope...... How can it be!?

"Atlantis, finish anchoring!" Inside the distant Feather Clan battleship, Nie Yun received a report from the codename......
