Chapter 776: Chapter 124: The Timing is Right

In the starship, Xu Mo and Zero boarded, and Ye Qingdie and the others were on the starship.

“Brother Mo, there are people lying in ambush outside Lucas University.” Xiao Qi, piloting the starship, spoke as he detected strong energy fluctuations outside.

“Ignore them,” Xu Mo said. Currently, many wanted to deal with him, and he could no longer distinguish who specifically they were–most likely individuals from Camp Star or Charlie’s people.

But it didn’t matter whose men they were; all were enemies.

This was also an anticipated situation. Given the current chaos, many were looking to stir the waters further, to seize more opportunities–it was an opportunity for others to kill him, but it was also a chance for the Blue Star Energy Technology Group to expand.

If things were not chaotic, those behind the scenes would have more energy to deal with him, and without chaos, the group would be oppressed by a formidable force.

The starship returned to the Blue Star Energy Technology Group. Xu Mo had already made his identity public, having no need to hide anymore, and he went on an inspection tour of the group.

“Xu Mo,” Stek Hao approached, glancing at Zero. He had heard that Xu Mo had completely subdued the female devil, and this couple was increasingly looking like husband and wife.

“Hao, you’ve lost weight. Having too much fun on Lucas Star?” Xu Mo looked at Stek Hao and said.

“Fun?” Stark Hao glared at Xu Mo and felt depressed at the thought, saying, “Since coming to Lucas Star, life has been hell.”

“What nonsense are you spouting?” Uncle Stark approached, and immediately, Stark Hao shut his mouth. Back on Byron Star, he could do whatever he wanted, only needing to be responsible for squandering money.

Now, his old man took him along every day to learn work–was this what a Young Master should do?

Thinking of his previous life of wooing women and spending money, it felt like paradise.

“Uncle Stark,” Xu Mo called out.

“Don’t bother with this kid. Now that we are on Lucas Star, times have changed, and he needs to be trained,” Old Stark said. Back on Byron Star, Stark Hao could do whatever he wished, as long as he squandered money.

Now, it was different. Coming here, he himself had changed some of his thoughts–life always needed greater pursuits.

“Good,” Xu Mo smiled.

“Xu Mo, what are your plans next? Will you continue to stay on Lucas Star or return to Byron Star?” Old Stark asked. They had already established a solid base, and they could now hold their ground at the Steel Dome City base.

Lucas Star had become a land of disputes.

“Regarding the next steps, I’ve already discussed with Sister Butterfly; expansion, to expand at the fastest pace possible to the limit, and a second goal: I want to transform Steel Dome City into a super base capable of resisting powerful alien attacks, fully developing Steel Dome City’s defense system,” Xu Mo said.

Base upon base, according to his plans. Sooner or later, Byron Star was to be taken down, with the Capital, Chuanxing City, at the forefront, becoming the base. However, Steel Dome City, in his vision, was the main base headquarters, the foundation. Regardless of future crises, everyone could seek refuge in Steel Dome City, and future core research would also be transferred to Steel Dome City.

As for Chuanxing City, it would become the production base connected to alien worlds, constructing an interstellar industrial chain.

As the location of the base, Steel Dome City’s defense was the first issue to be addressed, followed by arranging defensive lines for the city clusters of Chuanxing City.

Of course, this was in concept for now.

“Hmm, I think so too,” Old Stark said. “Based on the technology we’ve developed, super energy reactors can be established on the ground. Once activated, the energy reactors will start simultaneously, generating a superpower beam burst, conducting aerial attacks, though the project is vast, requiring time.”

Xu Mo nodded, “Since there’s a plan, commence immediately, and complete it as soon as possible. If manpower is needed, dig in various major star systems no matter the cost; cooperation with other planets could also be considered. If successful, promise to help them with their defenses afterward.”

“Agreed,” Old Stark nodded. If they could resolve Steel Dome City’s defense issues, then they could develop peacefully afterward.

“Also, the study of detection and invisibility technologies must also be accelerated to be applied to our warships as soon as possible,” Xu Mo added. This technology was very useful and could ensure they maintained the upper hand in interstellar warfare.

“Understood, the research teams place great emphasis on this technology and have assigned top scientists in this field,” Old Stark nodded, understanding Xu Mo’s thoughts.

In the era of interstellar realms, if they were to go out and conquer in starships in the future, possessing this technology would be highly advantageous, embodying perfect thievery technology.

…

With the Lune Festival approaching, news emerged from the capital of Lucas Star. Mandala Star would come to Lucas Star for negotiations. This news caused a huge uproar, diluting the festive atmosphere of the Lune Festival and making it somewhat oppressive.

The Star System Alliance called its member stars to Lucas Star and, for a while, Lucas Star became a hub of activity, with people from major star systems arriving in strong contingencies.

In the capital city of Lucas Star, one could often see starships appearing in the city skies, adding a sense of oppression to the Lune Festival.

Xu Mo had been staying inside Blue Star Energy Technology Group these days without going out, as news kept coming from the outside. Many predicted that the negotiations would not be peaceful. Instead, they could even be the start of a war.

The members of the Star System Alliance had gathered, an event that had not occurred for a long time.
