Chapter 652 - 652 Another Fleet Is Coming
652 Another Fleet Is Coming
Not long after, Wu Mo received the news too.
He looked at the star map and found that there was a huge gold mine beyond the base.
The other country had deployed many people to search every corner.
Unfortunately, it was very difficult for them to find the gold mine’s exact location. Only the people of China knew.
However, the people of that country had sealed off the area.
Even if they could not find the gold mine, they would not let China’s base search for it.
Wu Mo laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes.
He did not expect anyone to be bold enough to attack him despite the risk of losing the dome’s protection!
Without any hesitation, he immediately started to give them a refund.
“Return their three hundred billion yuan! Withdraw the dome!”
Following his order, three hundred billion yuan was returned to the country’s account.
At the same time, the dome quickly retracted until the country’s base was completely exposed to the scorching sun.
It was like the spring sun was shining on snow. The people on this national base instantly panicked!
“D*mn. What happened? We’ve already paid!”
“Hurry up. Ask the Chinese for a refund! They took our money, but they’re taking back our part of the dome!”
“Hmph. They think they can monopolize everything? We have the Planetary Alliance’s support. They can’t do whatever they want!”
The people on the base mocked them.
They sent this information back to the headquarters immediately and requested the Planetary Alliance to impose a penalty on China.
However, they received shocking news from the headquarters the next moment.
A huge sum of three hundred billion appeared in their account, and there was an extra ten billion!
Everyone on the base was stunned.
“Have they really chased us out of the dome and returned our money with interest?”
Unfortunately, it was too late by the time they reacted.
They quickly sent people through the Planetary Alliance to communicate with China and put in a good word. They even wanted to send the three hundred billion yuan back.
However, China rejected it, and the dome device remained withdrawn.
It was impossible to rewrite the past!
“Director Wu! We weren’t thinking straight. Please have mercy on us and give us a chance. We’ll remove the blockade immediately! How about you send your people over?”
The person in charge of the base quickly contacted Wu Mo via the big screen.
However, Wu Mo was no longer in the mood to pay him any attention.
He had a lot of things to do every day, so how could he have the time to care about these people?
Therefore, they were kicked out of the dome’s protection.
“Haha! Look at that base. It’s been driven out of the dome’s range. What a tragedy!”
For a moment, countless people laughed at them.
Some people thought that they deserved to enjoy the dome’s protection.
Not only were they ungrateful, but they were even bold enough to provoke him. What a joke!
Even though China had obtained some special privileges because of the treasure troves, it was still not a big deal.
Nevertheless, it was still a testament to their strength. If one was capable, one could find these places!
At the very least, other countries understood that although they were unhappy, they could not do something as unreasonable as blocking the road.
That country had no choice but to fight to the death. Its people began to quickly build another base, which was then developed into a mega-city.
Unfortunately, their city was outside the dome.
It was like a luxury car without insurance. Once something happened, it would be completely over.
Wu Mo did not care about them anymore. He started to focus on his own matters instead.
They were not worth mentioning at all. He did not have to waste time on them.
“Director Wu, the observatory has sent a message. A fleet of spaceships seems to be heading toward us from eight light-years away…”
When someone sent the news, everyone instantly became nervous.
“Hmm. Those fellows from Dark Star haven’t given up yet? Are they preparing to stir up trouble again?”
Wu Mo immediately activated the remote-sensing satellites to check their data.
There were ten spaceships on the screen. They were gradually approaching like glowing lights.
According to the observation data, they were flying extremely fast.
They were already traveling at twice the speed of light. They might even touch the edge of three times the speed of light!
If they maintained this speed…
If they continued to accelerate in the void of the universe, they would likely reach an incredible speed of four to five times the speed of light.
It was terrifying.
This also meant that they could reach Eternal Sun’s vicinity within a few months.
“It looks like we need to speed up Eternal Sun’s development. Once these alien civilizations arrive, we might be embroiled in endless battles!”
Wu Mo was deep in thought. He sounded serious.
War was the greatest obstacle to a civilization’s development.
It would halt progress and might even completely destroy the fragile civilization on the planet.
Therefore, China’s construction team began to go all out.
Cities sprang up like bamboo shoots after the rain as if planetary migration was already in sight.
China’s spokesperson later announced to the world that they would pick a hundred Chinese citizens and twenty citizens from other countries to live in the new city.
As the first batch of city dwellers, they would experience a new life on Eternal Sun!
The moment this news came out, the world went into a frenzy.
Countless people rushed to sign up!
“Oh, my God! It’s time to immigrate! It’s a great honor for us to be among the lucky first batch of immigrants!”
The Chinese citizens who had been selected were ecstatic. They felt like their luck was off the charts because the chosen one hundred people had no connections.
They had all been randomly selected by Wu Mo through the household registration system.
When these one hundred people learned that they had a chance to be the first immigrants, they were all extremely excited.
They made all the preparations and silently waited for that moment to arrive…
There were also newcomers from all over the world, but only twenty of them were selected.
They were going to board a ship with the one hundred people from China and head to Eternal Sun.
“Chief Engineer Wu, why don’t you migrate with them?” an engineer asked doubtfully.
Wu Mo replied, “I have a feeling that this migration will further trigger the sensitive Dark Starlings. They’ll definitely think of ways to destroy this planet! I have to make plans and prepare to build a second fleet of spaceships!”
“A second fleet? Chief Engineer Wu, I heard that the Mountain Sea Fleet has already expanded to sixty ships. Will we be able to build our first combat team?”
The engineer was confused.
A full fleet did not just consist of a few spaceships. It would require at least thirty spaceships.
Building one spaceship fleet seemed to be China’s current limit.
However, he did not know that Wu Mo was planning to build a combat team that was even stronger than the Mountain Sea Fleet!
Even though there were not many spaceships, every single one of them was automatically matched by the system’s store.
Wu Mo browsed through the store and spotted something surprising.
“Oh, Option Mode?”
