Chapter 304 – Americans That Are Filled with Love (2)
“You’re welcome! For freedom!”
Musk’s eyes reddened at Chen Yu’s words. Immediately, he followed after Chen Yu while contacting his assistant with his satellite phone.
“Hello, Headmaster.”
“Hello, Headmaster.”
Along the way, both professors and students greeted Chen Yu enthusiastically, revealing his “popularity” and “charm” in the Transdimensional Academy.
Shortly after, the two of them arrived at the courtyard outside the Headmaster’s Tower.
After entering the lobby, Chen Yu snapped his fingers.
Rumble...
A corner of the lobby’s ceiling slowly unfolded and transformed into a spiraling staircase.
“Follow me!”
After hooking his finger at Musk, Chen Yu entered the main hall and arrived before the spectacular Interstellar Portal.
“When can we start?” Chen Yu asked while manipulating the portal’s virtual console.
“We can start now!” Musk replied swiftly. “The two astronauts are already on standby. One of them is a botanist, and the other is an engineer. They can land on Mars at any time.”
“Where are they now?”
“Hawthorne, California...” Suppressing his excitement, Musk stated the full address to Chen Yu.
“Mhm.”
Nodding, Chen Yu found the location and pressed ‘Confirm.’
Buzz!
Space within the metal arch trembled slightly. The next moment, the scenery inside the metal arch changed to that of the SpaceX Company’s garden square.
Currently, it was still nighttime in America. However, the square was brightly lit and crowded with people. All sorts of equipment, materials, and packaging boxes were also stacked around the square.
Meanwhile, standing at the forefront of the crowd of people was one black and one white space suit-wearing astronauts. Both of them straightened their backs when they saw the portal appearing.
“What excellent efficiency!” Chen Yu gave Musk a thumbs up.
“It’s nothing. After you?”
“The bullets in America are too free. I’ll go change my clothing first.”
After saying so, Chen Yu left for the study, leaving Musk standing awkwardly beside the portal.
One minute later.
When Chen Yu left the study, he was already clad in his protective suit. “Let’s go.”
“After you.”
Not wanting to waste time, Chen Yu stepped through the portal, instantly crossing thousands of kilometers and arriving on American soil.
Clap, clap, clap...
Thunderous applause immediately rang out in the square.
Everyone present stared at Chen Yu with “eager” eyes. They thoroughly displayed the “friendliness” and “enthusiasm” of America’s people.
“Don’t...stop.” Chen Yu stretched out his hands and took the lead in applauding.
Hence, the applause became even more enthusiastic.
Clap, clap.
Clap, clap, clap...
One minute.
Three minutes.
Five minutes...
Clap, clap...
The applause continued for a long time.
The excited smiles that were originally on everyone’s faces also gradually turned stiff.
However, seeing as Chen Yu was still excitedly clapping his hands, everybody naturally did not dare to stop clapping. Gritting their teeth, they continued clapping their aching palms.
Clap, clap, clap...
The applause had continued for five minutes, and several women with weak constitutions had begun to sweat all over.
“M-Mr. King...” By now, even Musk felt his arms growing sore. “Should we get to business now?”
“Everyone is too enthusiastic.” Speeding up his clapping speed, Chen Yu said, “Let’s clap to our hearts’ content!”
Everyone: “...”
After another five minutes had passed, Chen Yu scanned the crowd. Upon seeing that everyone was dead tired, he smiled and said, “Okay, that’s enough. I can feel everyone’s enthusiasm.”
Thud!
As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, the rear portion of the crowd collapsed to the ground. As for the employees standing at the front, with their boss looking at them, they had no choice but to force themselves to remain standing and smiling.
“You guys are truly enthusiastic.” Seeing the crowd’s trembling arms and swollen palms, Chen Yu felt moved and couldn’t help but start clapping once more.
Clap, clap, clap!
Everyone’s expressions collapsed as they raised their hands and applauded together with Chen Yu once more.
“M-Mr. King, let’s start the teleportation. It’s going to be dawn in a while,” Musk said while wearing a forced smile on his face.
“Oh, is that so.” Raising his head and looking up at the dark sky, Chen Yu retracted his hands regretfully and said, “Let’s stop here, then. Business is more important.”
“Quick! Everyone get moving! Organize the supplies!” To prevent Chen Yu from leading the crowd into another round of applause, Musk hurriedly urged his employees to work. He then turned to ask Chen Yu, “Mr. King, can you connect the portal to Mars now?”
“No problem.” After gesturing an ‘OK,’ Chen Yu slid his finger across the portal’s virtual console. “Should we set the landing spot at Ares Vallis? That place is flat and suitable for building residential areas. It’s easier to collect rocks from there as well.”
“Aris Vallis...” Musk’s eyes wandered for a moment.
Based on the inside information he received from the government, the Chinese government had chosen Aris Vallis as their landing spot.
If they could establish their colony in the Aris Vallis before the Chinese space crew arrived...
After giving Chen Yu a vague glance, Musk agreed decisively and said, “Aris Vallis is fine. You have the final say.”
“Okay.” Nodding, Chen Yu initiated a spatial link with Mars’s surface.
The next moment, the world beyond the metal arch changed from the Headmaster’s Tower’s main hall to a red, desolate planet.
Mars—Ares Vallis.
Clap, clap!
Chen Yu clapped his hands and attracted everyone’s attention. He then stepped aside from the portal and said, “Everyone, start piling the supplies before me. Set the fall-resistant items at the front and the machinery at the rear. I’ll be tossing the items over in a moment to increase the efficiency. As for the two astronauts, rest for now and conserve your energy for the work that you’ll need to do on Mars afterward.”
At Chen Yu’s words, everyone subconsciously turned to look at Musk.
“Listen to Mr. King’s instructions,” Musk said. He felt pleasantly surprised to hear that Chen Yu was willing to help out.
Immediately, SpaceX’s employees started busying themselves. They carried the packages containing daily necessities and stacked them in front of Chen Yu.
“Mr. Musk, it looks like your male employees are quite fit, huh? They look like they can match up to the special forces,” Chen Yu said nonchalantly.
“Y-You jest...”
Chen Yu shrugged. Not minding these little details, he picked up a supply box and tossed it through the portal behind him.
Whoosh!
The box disappeared along with the howling of the wind.
Chen Yu had single-handedly tossed the supply box that needed at least four people to carry across a distance of 10 meters.
Everyone’s pupils shrank at this sight.
“What a bunch of country bumpkins...” Chen Yu muttered in contempt when he saw the shocked expressions on everyone’s faces. He then shouted, “Hey, what are you doing standing around? Hurry up and work.”
Immediately, the employees snapped out of their dazes and resumed moving the boxes.
These were all items that were customized for the Martian environment. The food, drinking water, seeds, tools, lightweight glass, alloy walls, and chemical products prepared all cost an exorbitant price.
If only two astronauts were to utilize these items, they could easily survive for more than two years. Meanwhile, two years was more than enough for the Falcon 9 heavy rocket to reach Mars.
Boom!
Boom, boom...
Under Chen Yu’s extraordinary strength and endurance, the supply boxes were thrown onto the surface of Mars one after another. In less than five minutes, 75% of the supplies were “shipped” already. The remainder were all high-precision, high-tech products and were not suited for violent transportation.
“OK.” Patting the dust off his body, Chen Yu revealed an evil smirk inside his helmet and said happily, “Enthusiastic people of America...”
