Chapter 54: The Biological Warship Makes its Debut; The Punishment Ship is Completed from Repair.
In the main world, inside the space exploration base of Dongda University, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.
"Beep beep beep!"
The alarm immediately drew the attention of the staff on duty.
"What's going on? Where should I call the police?"
"Boss, abnormal gravitational fluctuations detected. Location: On the Moon!!"
"What? On the moon?"
"Hiss! Double-check it right now, there can't be any mistakes."
"The data is correct, boss. It's definitely on the moon, and on the far side of the moon."
"Immediately activate the emergency response procedures and notify the director."
"yes!"
Soon, the matter was reported to the cabinet.
The prime minister looked at the information above with a serious expression.
"Everyone, have you all read the information? What are your thoughts?"
"Prime Minister, it's clear this isn't a false alarm. According to previous data, there have been multiple instances of spatial fluctuations, but they were hidden within the moon's own gravity and hadn't met the triggering conditions. Only after re-analyzing the data did we discover the anomaly. Therefore, I have reason to believe that there is definitely something on the far side of the moon, and we cannot rule out the possibility of extraterrestrial life."
"Could it be a lizard man?"
"It's unlikely. Those meteorites didn't pass by the moon, so it's more likely that they were from another group of aliens."
"These are turbulent times. How is Project No. 3 progressing?"
"All modules are installed and the first test is about to begin. Prime Minister, are you planning to send this out?"
"No, I remember Project 3 was carried out by two teams simultaneously, right?"
"Yes, Group 2 is progressing slowly, mainly due to a lack of materials. They need to wait for Group 1 to finish before they can obtain enough materials."
"We may not have much time left. We need to accelerate the implementation of the Chang'e program, ensure the acquisition of sufficient materials, catch up with the progress of Group 2, and gain a certain degree of military initiative."
Furthermore, to launch the new Lunar rover to the far side of the moon, we must figure out exactly what's on the far side.
"Yes, Grand Secretary!"
After the meeting ended, Dongda University began to take action quietly. Fang Heng only noticed Dongda University's movements because he was paying attention to these things.
However, he had no time to care about any of that.
After the first bio-warship is teleported to the main world, subsequent warships will also require time to teleport.
The lunar base in the Resident Evil world was built relatively recently, unlike the Terminator world which took more than a decade to build and already had a mature energy supply system.
Therefore, after the bio-world undergoes a teleportation, the device needs to be recharged, which will take about a day.
Soon, as a day passed and another spatial fluctuation occurred, a new biological warship appeared in the same spot.
Similarly, the massive spatial fluctuations once again alarmed Dongda University.
Over the next three days, spatial fluctuations appeared on the far side of the moon every day, making the students at Dongda University increasingly anxious.
Such frequent spatial fluctuations indicate that something is definitely on the far side of the moon.
The moon is too close to Earth; they can't sleep at all unless they figure out why.
So in just five days, the new lunar rocket was assembled, and as the countdown ended, the rocket soared into the sky and flew into space.
After a long journey, as the rocket entered orbit on the far side of the moon, the images transmitted back stunned everyone in the command center.
"W-what is this?"
"A biological warship, or a cosmic behemoth?"
Everyone in the command center was shocked as they looked at the biological warship hovering in orbit on the far side of the moon.
"Quickly, quickly, report to the cabinet. Top secret, top secret. Notify the Imperial Guard to seal off this place and activate signal jamming. Not even a fly is allowed to get out of here."
The on-site commander also possessed exceptional composure, quickly regaining his composure and issuing a direct order to seal off the area. He also immediately reported the situation to the cabinet.
After receiving the message from the command center, the cabinet convened another emergency meeting.
"Everyone, take a look. This thing shouldn't be from our Blue Star, right?"
"Definitely not. Earth's current technology is not capable of creating such a creature. Moreover, it's unclear whether this creature is man-made or naturally occurring. The most important thing now is to figure out whether we can communicate with it."
"The relevant orders have been issued, and the aerospace command center will make the relevant communication requests. However, I think we still need to prepare for war."
"These are turbulent times. Plan No. 3 must be completed as soon as possible. We can't gamble that the other side will stay put. Right now, we're in a very passive position."
Everyone present looked worried at the five strange celestial creatures on the far side of the moon.
Being able to survive in the universe, whether it's so-called interstellar creatures or warships of biological civilizations, is something that our current Earth cannot withstand.
A deep sense of powerlessness swept over everyone, and everyone's face looked terrible.
Meanwhile, the space center is also operating at full speed.
"So, is the plan working?"
"Sure, we just need to change the algorithm. Our lunar spacecraft can already communicate with the Queqiao network using encryption. Now we're just changing it to directional plaintext communication. Okay, all done."
"Okay, immediately send a communication request to the other party and inquire about their origins."
"Yes, it has been sent!"
Meanwhile, inside the lunar base, Fang Heng also received a report from Ethan.
"Commander, we have received a targeted plaintext communication request. The other party is asking where we are from."
"Oh? It seems these five biological warships have frightened them. Which country asked?"
"Dongda University".
"Not surprising, they are the only ones moving forward step by step at their own pace."
"Commander, how should I reply?"
"There's no need to hide anything. Just tell them that this is the Star Group's biological escort fleet, conducting routine training. Tell them not to let their Chang'e spacecraft get too close. Oh, and by the way, tell them that this area on the far side of the moon has been occupied by us. If they plan to build a base here, they shouldn't be near us."
"Yes, Commander."
After the message was replied and the deciphering was completed, everyone in the space center fell silent.
"So, what we've been so worried about all this time is the Star Group's biological warship."
"That's right."
"That's nonsense! How could that be? Starry Sky Group is just a biotechnology company. They can't possibly build biological warships? They're kidding me!"
"But Director, based on the current communication characteristics, this is indeed Star Group's communication; everything matches."
"Phew, tell the Chang'e spaceship to stay away and not get too close. I'll go report first. What happens next is beyond our control."
The on-site commander understood that if it really was a biological warship from the Star Group, then the world order would undergo a new change.
"These are turbulent times!"
Soon, the relevant intelligence was placed on the cabinet's meeting table.
"It's truly astonishing. I never expected that such a small multinational corporation could quietly produce something like this. It's really..."
"Inconceivable."
At this moment, the cabinet leaders felt a bit dramatic. They had been on edge for so long, thinking it was the vanguard of aliens, but it turned out to be a native force of Earth.
Biological warships, in fact, whether biological or mechanical, as long as they can navigate in space, their technology far surpasses that of Earth today.
For Earth, its combat power is overwhelming.
The Grand Secretary rubbed his temples, pondered for a moment, and then made a decision.
"Gentlemen, I am prepared to take the initiative to visit the headquarters of Star Group."
"That's certainly the case. The Star Group is now an important member in maintaining peace and stability on Earth, and we should pay them a visit."
Upon hearing the Prime Minister's words, everyone present nodded in agreement.
If it were before, everyone might have thought the Prime Minister was joking when they heard this, but now they think the Prime Minister's decision is correct.
If they only had one biological warship, they might still have a chance. With the soon-to-be-completed Project 3, the University of Tokyo might still have a fighting chance.
But since there are only 5 ships now, let's keep a low profile.
Furthermore, they had also conducted data analysis on Fang Heng, the behind-the-scenes controller of the Xingchen Group. They found that he still had feelings for Dongda University, which was a link that could be used to bring the two sides closer.
The previous cooperation was also very pleasant, and with this foundation, perhaps the University of Tokyo can also gain some benefits from this.
With this in mind, the chief minister also had a new idea.
Leaving aside the cabinet meeting at Dongda University, Fang Heng focused his attention on repairing the Punishment Ship after all five biological frigates had been transported.
The basic industrial infrastructure now meets the requirements for the complete restoration of the Punisher; it's time to begin the real restoration.
"Commander, the main hull of the Punishment has been repaired, and the production of all parts is nearing completion. It is expected that the final parts will be completed in about a month, and then the Punishment will be repaired in just half a month."
"Okay, then hurry up."
"Yes, Commander."
And so, 45 days passed quietly. On the surface of the planet, all was calm, but beneath the surface, turbulent currents were surging.
Since the last failed attack, the beings behind the lizardmen have reflected a lot and realized their oversights. So they have been gathering strength and preparing to launch another counterattack.
Meanwhile, Fang Heng, looking at the completely repaired Punishment, was almost overflowing with joy.
"Ethan, well done. After all this time, you've finally repaired the warship."
"Commander, although all the modules of the warship have been repaired, the internal energy, ammunition, raw materials, carrier-based aircraft, etc. have not yet been replenished, so the Punisher is not yet capable of combat."
"It's alright. We've already overcome the most difficult step, so a little more time won't matter. The industrial system has been upgraded, so the subsequent work will be much simpler."
