Chapter 105: Preparation for Departure and Undercurrents
After determining the course of action, it was time for Jo Lu to start preparing for this Marvel Earth landing operation.
In fact, compared with the previous two landings of Pandora and Cybertron, this Marvel Earth is relatively safe.
After all, the planet as a whole is still in a relatively peaceful and stable state, and ordinary people still have a better chance of surviving as long as they don't die.
As long as he is not knocked out by Thanos with a snap of his fingers, pulled into the sky by Ultron, encounters some messy aliens, is captured by the villain organization for human experiments, etc······
Well, it's a great place to be safe.
All in all, at least for the exploration team of the Wandering Earth, this world is much safer than the previous two worlds.
In order to better integrate into the human society on this planet, the members of the exploration team this time have changed into civilian clothes, pretending to be an ordinary passerby and preparing to land on Marvel Earth.
Their main task is to gather intelligence, so they just need to behave like normal people.
Qiao Lu also changed into a crisp suit and brought the eagle-style armored box given to him by Luo Yun, even if he was ready to land.
There may be some diplomatic contact with S.H.I.E.L.D. this time, so try to dress as formally.
In order to facilitate their infiltration operation, the coalition government also provided a significant amount of gold as start-up capital.
Eating and drinking at public expense, traveling around the world, the treatment of the Wandering Earth Exploration Team this time is really too good to be better.
After all, not every alien landing operation requires the bloodshed and sacrifice of the team members to solve, this time they only need to do the preliminary investigation.
The real battle came after the arrival of the Zetarian space fleet.
Hopefully, at that time, the Wandering Earth has been ready for everything.
To Qiao Lu's surprise, Liu Peiqiang was the only one who partnered with him this time, but Wang Lei, who was the Iron Triangle, did not follow up again.
That's not his style.
Liu Peiqiang explained: "Actually, I asked him to participate in another mission, the space resource development project, and they would set off with us, but the destination was different. ”
"Space resource development project?"
Qiao Lu immediately remembered the space engineering plan that Zhang Bin had mentioned to him before, using the transforming heavy carrier vehicle to put it on other planets for resource extraction, and then transporting it back to the Wandering Earth through the Ark.
This kind of space engineering plan naturally needs to be escorted by the military, and Wang Lei should be in charge of this work.
"But what do you ask him for?" As soon as Qiao Lu's words came out, he immediately reacted.
"I see, Liu Qi is also involved in this space engineering program, right?"
Liu Peiqiang shook his head helplessly and said: "Duoduo wants to sign up to study film and television, so Liu Qi hopes to make a little more money to fund her." Actually, he just needs to open his mouth and talk to me, but you know, that kid's stubborn temper. ”
It seems that the conflict between their father and son has not been completely resolved.
However, being able to participate in such a space engineering program, it seems that Liu Qi has indeed grown a lot, and he is no longer the clumsy junior pilot he was at the beginning.
"Let's hope their work goes well." Qiao Lu said.
"I hope so."
Whether it is a planetary exploration team or a space engineering team, the starships used are the same - the Ark.
The Ark will send a space engineering team to a nearby asteroid to mine ore, and then send the planetary exploration team to Earth in the Marvel Universe.
After Qiao Lu and the others complete the preliminary investigation work, the Ark will start to return, pick up the space engineering team full of rare ores on the way, and return to the wandering earth together.
That's the initial plan of action.
The dual-purpose deformed vehicle was designed for this space engineering program.
As mentioned before, at present, the only one who can drive the Ark is a Transformer with the corresponding size.
Therefore, this operation, it is necessary to have the participation of the Autobots.
Qiao Lu and Liu Peiqiang arrived in the Transformers Autonomous Region on the ground, where the massive starship Ark was ready to set sail again.
The operation also involved a significant number of Autobots, most of whom served as the driving crew of the Ark, as well as working with the space engineering team on asteroid development projects.
After a month of living together, many of the Autobots are already getting along well with humans, and they can be seen talking and laughing with humans as they line up to board the ship.
The personnel who were able to participate in this operation were also carefully selected, and naturally there was no discrimination against these Autobots.
A memorable space sortie for which humans and Autobots joined forces for the first time.
On the bridge of the Ark, Optimus Prime had been waiting for a long time.
"Nice to meet you, Jolu." Optimus Prime turned to greet the two of them.
"I'm going to trouble you again this time."
In Optimus Prime's skills, there are also Autobots such as Ironhide and Bumblebee, who also participated in this operation.
As Transformers who can transform into Earth vehicles, they can also integrate into human society with Qiao Lu, so they also participated in this exploration operation together.
"I hope this time, there will be something that will make me feel good."
Iron Hide fiddled with the two cannons on his shoulders and said, after more than three months of training by the Wandering Earth Force, he is now a loyal admirer of firepower.
"Don't worry, there will be a chance for you to make a big fuss." Qiao Lu said with a smile.
In order for the battle of New York to still be possible, their vanguard landing force must also be fully prepared for battle.
The Transformers, who have been greatly transformed by humans using the transformation body technology, are the main force of this vanguard force.
Bumblebee, who was standing in the back, also played music on the radio: "Oh, we're unstoppable~♫"
Qiao Lu's car for this trip decided to be a high-end and handsome Chevrolet Camaro sports car.
Of course, it still has to be the kind that can be transformed.
With everyone else on board, Cybertron's flagship Ark is ready to set sail.
After making all these preparations, Optimus Prime asked Qiao Lu for instructions:
"Please give the order."
The massive hull of the Ark was already slowly rising on the ground, as if a continuous mountain range of steel was suddenly rising from the earth.
"Ark, forward!"
Carrying two different races and the same belief of humans and Transformers, the Ark accelerated out of the atmosphere of the wandering earth and rushed towards the Marvel universe full of mystery and unknown.
At the same time, on the other side of the galaxy, another force is also surging undercurrent.
On the alien civilization Kree Empire's space carrier Darkstar, Ronan the Accuser has received a new command from the Courier:
"Ronan, take your starship to Earth, where your army is needed."
Ronan was obviously puzzled by this arrangement, and he questioned the other party: "This is not our original agreement, I already have a clue about the cosmic spirit orb, why change my mind at this time?" ”
"There is no need to question the will of our Lord, but do it, and He will grant your desires. But if you disappoint my Lord, you will pay the price! ”
Ronan had no choice but to shut up in acquiescence.
So another large starship in the universe, for a completely different purpose, and the Ark headed towards the same destination at high speed.
