People Found Out About The Base I Built On the Moon

Chapter 42: This Is Just A Short Visit To Earth!

[Mission: Fire a star destroyer cannon towards Earth. Completed. Reward: 1000 Tech Points.]

“Finally! I received the points!”

Zhao Yu’s face lit up with satisfaction. It took him five days to accumulate 120 Tech Points, but completing a mission rewarded him directly with 1000 Tech Points. It was incredibly satisfying.

“Commander, 1 suggest saving these Tech Points for upgrading the nuclear fusion to the third generation!”

“I know!”

Zhao Yu smiled and said, “There’s nothing else we need to build at the moment. By the way, how many transport ships have been completed?!”

Ever since Uncle Da proposed establishing a complete space fleet, Zhao Yu had been searching for spaceships. He found a spaceship that could serve as a transport ship—a 10-kilometer-long rectangular vessel equipped with a second-generation nuclear propulsion system and level-two armor. It was reasonably priced, at only 100 Tech Points.

…..

However, this transport ship was three times larger than the U-shaped spaceship in terms of size, which made its energy consumption during flight much higher. There was hardly any excess energy available for weapon systems.

Of course, it was possible to force modifications, but that would reduce power and efficiency of the vessel, which would make them worse than a u-shaped spaceship. This wouldn’t be worth the effort.

“We have completed 60 ships. The current resources are sufficient to build them, but we lack cobalt, scandium, erbium, etc. We need to obtain them from Earth…”

Although the Moon had considerable resources such as iron, titanium, potassium, chromium, niobium, helium-3, and more, it couldn’t match the variety available on Earth. When faced with a shortage of rare resources, they could only be imported from Earth.

“60 ships are enough. Once 1 visit Earth, we’ll have everything we need!”

At that moment, Zhang Yuxia entered with a set of clothes.

“Commander, this is a protective suit made using nanotechnology…”

Zhao Yu glanced at Uncle Da.

Uncle Da explained, “You should be careful of the things that you cannot predict. Some people may fear the destruction of Earth, but I’ve discovered that there are also people on Earth who want to destroy the world. If they knew that killing you could lead to the destruction of Earth, they would be more than willing to do it…”

“This nanotech suit has a color fastness rating of 9, water resistance rating of 9, and is resistant to fading and dust. It is also waterproof and moisture-proof…”

“It has a heat stability rating of 9, capable of withstanding temperatures up to 3800 degrees Celsius…”

“Breaking strength: >io4,86o,oooN in the warp direction, >1O2,43O,OOON in the weft direction; tear strength: >14,860×1013 in the warp direction, >13,755×1013 in the weft direction…”

“It can absorb the impact force of a 1.5-ton car traveling at 150 kilometers per hour. Similarly, if you fall from a height of 24 floors or below on Earth, you will be unharmed…”

“In addition, this protective suit can withstand bullets from all models of sniper rifles on Earth…”

After Uncle Da finished introducing the clothing, he took out a belt from the side and said, “This is a portable energy shield. Although its power is far inferior to the base’s shield system, it can still withstand conventional projectile weapons on Earth…”

“As for nuclear attacks and the like, I have arranged five warships equipped with laser defense systems to intercept them…”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu felt a bit embarrassed. “Uncle Da, I’m not going to fight any battles, am 1? All of this seems kind of excessive.”

“Just in case, be prepared!”

Uncle Da continued, “Next, let me talk about the fleet for this operation…”

“We have a total of 120 spacecraft accompanying us, including 10 disc-shaped spaceships. Eight of them are responsible for reconnaissance activities on Earth, while two will stay with you at all times, ready to evacuate from Earth at any moment…”

“There are 60 transport ships, among which 30 are equipped with various devices to quickly establish a sub-base on Blue Moon…”

The Earth side has already named the captured asteroid as Blue Moon. The surface of that asteroid is covered with blue copper ore and turquoise, giving it a beautiful overall bluish appearance when viewed from Earth.

“In addition, there are 30 transport ships carrying 100,000 robotic engineering soldiers who will be stationed on Blue Moon for a long period. They will also be responsible for debugging the factory construction on Earth…”

“Furthermore, we have 1,000 space combat robots capable of short-distance flight and combat in space. They are equipped with various weapons such as plasma shoulder cannons, eyeball lasers, and undercarriage laser cannons…”

“The core of each space combat robot carries a miniature nuclear fusion reactor, which provides power for the robots on a daily basis. In special circumstances, they can activate a self-destruct program, equivalent to the power of 10 million tons of TNT…”

“That’s like a thousand nuclear bombs?!”

Zhao Yu was stunned. He was only visiting Earth. Did they really need to be so over-the-top with everything?!

“Finally, we have fifty warships, all of which have been modified from U-shaped spacecraft and equipped with various weapons…”

“Among them, there are two cruisers armed with annihilation cannons, which will hover at both ends of the Earth’s synchronous orbit on standby…”

“There are ten destroyers equipped with various electromagnetic cannons, capable of paralyzing all of Earth’s military electronic devices within an hour…”

“There are five battleships equipped with multiple railguns, occupying the commanding heights and capable of destroying any military base on Earth…”

“There are five escort ships equipped with laser defense systems, capable of intercepting any attack from any direction at the speed of light…”

“There are three battleships equipped with multiple high-energy beam cannons…”

“The remaining 25 ships have all been modified into destroyers carrying conventional weapons…”

At this point, Uncle Da paused and said, “If anything unexpected happens, our accompanying fleet can completely destroy Earth’s counterattack forces within an hour…”

“In addition, during intense battles, our eight reconnaissance ships can fly to Blue Moon and alter its orbit, pushing it towards Earth…”

Zhao Yu initially thought that the miniature nuclear fusion reactors carried by the 1,000 space combat robots were already astonishing enough. Little did he know that compared to the fifty warships arranged by Uncle Da, they were simply insignificant.

Finally, Uncle Da summarized, “Commander, if there is anything amiss on Earth, with just a command from you, we can destroy Earth at any time!”

H n

Zhao Yu was speechless. He actually felt that his head was starting to hurt after hearing everything.

Uncle Da thought he was dissatisfied and added, “We can only produce this number of spacecraft with the existing resources. Otherwise, we could have brought over our one million space combat robots…”

“But please rest assured, after you leave, I will raise all the orbital cannons in the base to the lunar synchronous orbit and constantly aim them towards Earth…”

“As soon as the situation changes over there, our support will arrive immediately!”

“No need, that’s enough!” Zhao Yu waved his hands repeatedly. “These are sufficient. 1 feel very safe now!!!”

Zhao Yu was actually scared of Uncle Da. Every time, he would get an entire army to come guard him. He would also constantly talk about destroying Earth.

This was just a simple visit! That’s all there was to it!

Instead of talking about weapons and destroying Earth, Zhao Yu decided to ask about the negotiations.

Uncle Da spoke, “1 have reviewed the recent history of Earth and the development status of various countries…”

“Our current relationship with Earth is similar to the relationship between some developed countries and developing countries on Earth…”

“This means that, compared to products, Earth is more interested in us establishing factories there…”

“Therefore, 1 suggest that during the initial negotiations, you should not rush to agree on building a factory. Wait for them to earnestly request it and use it as a negotiation condition before agreeing to establish a factory…”

“Understood!”

After discussing some details, Zhao Yu nodded and said, “You can let Zhang Yuxia contact Earth.. We will depart for Earth in one day and ask them to prepare for our arrival!”
