Chapter 371: Nothing to Me
"For us, we have the coordinates of this planet, and it took us several years drifting in space to get here."
"What are these coordinates?" Su Chen frowned.
"These coordinates are the position of a planet in the universe. With these coordinates, we can accurately locate a planet. Otherwise, in the vast universe, finding a habitable planet at random is a very difficult task."
"How far is Yan Yun Star from Earth?"
"According to the calculations of our warship's AI, it should be 0.5 light years away."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen was puzzled, "Your warship can reach the speed of light?"
Su Chen couldn't imagine what it would be like for a warship to achieve the speed of light.
"No, our warship can only reach sub-light speed, but once we reach sub-light speed, we can perform spatial jumps to reduce travel time. Originally, it would take over a decade to reach here at sub-light speed, but in reality, we arrived here in just over a year." Lisa paused for a moment and continued, "During our journey here, we discovered several artificial wormholes, which significantly shortened the time."
Artificial wormholes?
The first thing that came to Su Chen's mind was the Qiluo Civilization. After all, only the Qiluo Civilization had truly ventured beyond Earth and into the universe.
And only the Qiluo Civilization could create artificial wormholes.
In fact, Qiluo Civilization had left behind this technology, but Yun Ru had never researched it. Crossing the vast distances of interstellar space was still a distant dream for humanity, so Yun Ru had temporarily set this technology aside.
Su Chen nodded calmly and said, "A month from now, I will requisition your warship to travel to Yan Yun Star. At that time, you will guide us."
Seeing Su Chen's resolute expression, Lisa could only agree.
Afterward, Lisa and her team were brought to a hotel for accommodations, surrounded by numerous Red Alert Soldiers keeping watch.
Once the others had left, Leng Yuwei spoke up, "Why are we going to Yan Yun Star? It's very dangerous there."
Su Chen had no choice. The System had issued the mission, and it was evidently another chain of missions. If they didn't complete it, their Commander permissions could be revoked, which wouldn't be good.
"Since they've discovered this place, it means Earth is no longer safe. If the people on Yan Yun Star find out about Earth's existence, do you think they might come?" Su Chen replied.
Leng Yuwei didn't say anything. According to her understanding, once the people on Yan Yun Star knew about Earth's existence, they would surely come.
It was akin to a drowning person; even if they grasped a straw, they wouldn't let go. This was a principle.
Earth might be the last straw they could grasp!
"Also, they can communicate between various planets, clearly possessing technology beyond ours. This warship might even have the capability to transmit information. Yan Yun Star might already know about Earth's location. We have to take preemptive action!"
"I understand."
At this time, Human Emperor, who was engaged in his own affairs, suddenly received a notification from Su Chen about an upcoming Emperor's meeting. This puzzled him.
There was hardly anything on Earth that could threaten humanity now, so why was an Emperor's meeting necessary?
When the Emperor's meeting was established, it was decided that only significant matters related to humanity would warrant such a meeting. Could it be that something had gone wrong again?
Human Emperor couldn't afford to be lax. He immediately put aside all other matters and convened the Emperor's meeting.
Within half an hour, all the Human Emperors opened their video feeds and saw Su Chen.
"Sovereign Su, may we know why you've summoned us in such haste?" The speaker was still Emperor Kong.
With just a few words, Su Chen left them dumbfounded, "Have you encountered extraterrestrial beings?"
"???"
What in the world? He started with such an advanced question. How were they supposed to answer?
Should they go along with what Sovereign Su was saying, or should they stick to their own opinions?
Emperor Kong felt that since Su Chen had brought it up, there must be some deeper meaning behind it. After a moment's thought, he spoke hesitantly, "The Dream Shadow Clan from last time, wouldn't that count as extraterrestrial beings?"
As Emperor Kong said this, he hesitated.
After all, the Dream Shadow Clan didn't have a physical form; they attached themselves to people without any discernible alien appearance.
Other than the Dream Shadow Clan, they hadn't encountered any other extraterrestrial beings.
The Atlantean Lance, they hadn't seen him.
The Protoss Les, who had taken over Emperor Ming, they hadn't seen either.contemporary romance
The only extraterrestrial beings they had encountered were the Dream Shadow Clan, and that was only because Su Chen had mentioned it; otherwise, they wouldn't have known.
"I'm not referring to extraterrestrial species; I mean extraterrestrial humans."
"Extraterrestrial humans? How is that possible?" Human Emperor exclaimed.
They knew there were extraterrestrial species out there, but the idea of extraterrestrial humans was hard to believe.
After all, before the Apocalypse, they had always believed Earth was the only place with humans. Otherwise, in all these years, there would have been no trace of extraterrestrial humans.
Su Chen didn't speak but showed them some pictures directly.
When they saw a massive warship and people standing next to it who looked slightly different from them, they fell silent.
"Where are they? Regardless of whether they're extraterrestrial beings or not, we must bring them under control," Emperor Kong's first thought was about the safety of Earth's humans.
As someone who had come from before the Apocalypse, he had seen his fair share of sci-fi movies where extraterrestrial beings either caused trouble or destruction, very few were portrayed positively.
"Don't worry, I've temporarily gained control over them. The reason I summoned you all for this meeting is to discuss one thing," Su Chen smiled faintly, "I'm planning to launch an attack on their planet."
Cough cough...
A series of coughs sounded on the video. Su Chen's words had caught them off guard.
"Sovereign Su, you're planning to attack an extraterrestrial planet?" Western Emperor incredulously asked.
"Yes, their planet is called Yan Yun Star, 0.5 light years away from Earth. I plan to spend a month studying their warship while building a new one. If any of you are interested, you can join me on the journey."
The Human Emperors collectively rolled their eyes. Only someone like Sovereign Su would come up with such an idea.
"Studying and building in a month's time, is that even possible?" Eastern Emperor was the first to express disbelief.
After all, the technology of the warship was far beyond anything Earth currently possessed. Even if they were given a year, it would be challenging to fully comprehend, let alone build. It would take much longer.
They didn't know that with Su Chen's Red Alert system, as long as he grasped the technology, he could build a warship in a matter of minutes!
"Impossible for others, but not for me," Su Chen said calmly with a faint air of
self-assuredness. (To be continued...)
