Build a Fifty-meter Giant Mecha at the Beginning!

190: The Astronomy Bureau discovered alien life!”Academician Wang, once I finish the tasks at hand, I’ll start thinking about improving our carrying capacity,” Zhang Yuanhang said.

The main task now is to sort out the Plasma Shield, and then we can deal with other things.

”Alright, alright.”

”Little Zhang, you go ahead with your work. We’re not in a hurry.”

Academician Wang said excitedly.

For now, the Space Freighter can still be maintained for some time if they grit their teeth.

”Alright, then Academician Wang, I’ll go attend to my matters now.”

Now that the Plasma Shield has been tested, Zhang Yuanhang plans to upgrade the Azure Dragon Space Battleship.

He will install a Plasma Shield on the second Azure Dragon Space Battleship currently under construction.

”Alright, alright, Little Zhang, you go ahead with your work.”

Academician Wang said in a hurry.

He then retreated, while Zhang Yuanhang took his staff to prepare for the manufacturing of large Plasma Shield devices.

The Sentinel Mechas in Space also received orders: during the construction of the second Azure Dragon Space Battleship, Space for the Plasma Shield device needed to be reserved in the center of the battleship.

Academician Wu and the other Academicians had arrived at the production workshop early.

Seeing Zhang Yuanhang arrive, Everyone gathered around him.

”Everyone, starting today, I will conduct a training session for all of you. Later, we will need to manufacture large Plasma Shield devices.”

”I certainly can’t build them alone,” Zhang Yuanhang said.

”Little Zhang, we will learn as quickly as possible,” Academician Wu and a group of Academicians said with firm voices.

”Okay, let’s start now.”

After speaking, Zhang Yuanhang began explaining to Everyone. The scene here was being broadcast in another conference room.

Everyone in the conference room were researchers from Shancheng Military Base.

That’s right, too many people wanted to attend Zhang Yuanhang’s class. To listen to Zhang Yuanhang’s lecture face-to-face, one had to be an Academician; otherwise, they would honestly watch the broadcast in the conference room.

”This must be the most exclusive class on Blue Star!” Leader Jia said with a smile, standing to the side.

Any person pulled from this group was a Doctor, yet even so, they weren’t qualified to enter the workshop.

”Indeed, indeed.”

The staff behind Leader Jia nodded in agreement.

While Zhang Yuanhang was busy teaching the Academicians, something big happened on the Moon.

Deep within the Moon.

”My goodness, what kind of ore is this?”

”I don’t know, I’ve never seen it before. It looks like a luminous pearl, it’s actually glowing.”

”The detectors can’t even detect it. If we hadn’t dug it up, we probably wouldn’t have discovered this thing!”

”It feels like this is a new type of ore that humanity has never discovered!”

”Then aren’t we going to strike it rich!”

...These few miners deep within the Moon looked at each other.

Their eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement.

The mining team leader immediately picked up the walkie-talkie to report to his superiors.

”Manager Xu, Manager Xu, this is production area C1. We seem to have dug up a new ore.”

”Please send an expert down to take a look quickly!”

Manager Xu, located on the surface, looked bewildered. New ore???

Those guys underground couldn’t have secretly brought alcohol down, could they?

”Are you bastards drinking in the mine?”

”Are you trying to get yourselves killed!”

”Do you believe I’ll have the company fire all of you?”

Manager Xu’s eyes were full of anger. His promotion was in sight, and he didn’t want anything major to happen in the mining area he managed.

He thought to himself that he must send these guys back to Blue Star.

”No, no, Manager Xu, we really did dig up new ore.”

”Come down and see for yourself!”

The mining team leader felt utterly speechless. Why wouldn’t this guy believe them?

”I’ll come down and take a look.”

Seeing that the other party kept insisting he come down, Manager Xu also became genuinely suspicious. Could there really be new ore?

So he got up and went down into the mine.

Soon, he arrived at the mining team leader’s location.

”Manager Xu, see, we weren’t lying to you!”

The mining team leader pointed to the glowing, strange ore when Manager Xu arrived.

”My goodness, what is this?”

Manager Xu touched the glowing ore.

At this time, Everyone still didn’t know that they had dug up a natural ore called ’Energy Storage Stone’.

Of course, at this moment, Everyone still didn’t know what this thing was for.

Manager Xu immediately reported this discovery to the company’s senior management.

The company’s senior management immediately reported the matter to the Chinese Government.

The Capital.

”The Top Leader, news just came in that a never-before-seen ore has been dug up on the Moon.”

The secretary hurriedly reported the matter to The Top Leader.

If this were on Blue Star, such a discovery of new ore would naturally not need to be reported to The Top Leader.

However, this was on the Moon. For matters concerning the Moon, The Top Leader always personally inquired.

”Oh, quickly bring some of this new ore back and let the experts see what use it has.”

”At the same time, that mining area will be temporarily placed under military control.”

”Also, arrange for a special plane to transport it back as soon as possible.”

The Top Leader didn’t know why, but he had a feeling that what was dug up on the Moon this time would be very beneficial to China.

”Yes!”

The secretary nodded, then sent a message to the Moon’s garrison, instructing them to secure that mining area.

The Moon.

Military transport vehicles, one after another, carried soldiers to the mining area. The entire mining area was taken over by the army.

There were also Aerospace Fighters in the sky.

It was half a day later when the ore returned to China.

The experts who received the ore immediately began comprehensive research.

China Astronomy Administration.

”Director, Director.”

A figure stumbled into the office of the Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory.

”Old Xu, what’s wrong with you?”

The Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory looked at Xu Wenjie with confusion. In the Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory’s memory, Xu Wenjie had never been so flustered!

”Director, we’ve made a great discovery, a great discovery!”

Xu Wenjie trembled with excitement.

”What great discovery?”

”Have you discovered a planet that might have water?”

The Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory asked hurriedly.

Only the discovery of a planet with water seemed capable of making a steady astronomer like Xu Wenjie so excited.

”No, no, no!”

”Director, do you remember a year ago, we discovered a water-bearing planet one light-year away?”

Xu Wenjie said.

”Of course I remember.”

”You even named that planet, zhws-1.”

The Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory said, while picking up a teacup and handing it to Xu Wenjie, intending for Xu Wenjie to drink some tea and calm down.

”I found traces of life on that planet!”

Xu Wenjie said, trembling.

”Clatter!”

The teacup slipped from the hand of the Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory.

”O-o-o-old Xu, are you joking?”

The Director of the China National Astronomical Observatory stared intently at Xu Wenjie.
