The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 379: Searching the Moon

The metal fragment Emperor Kong found made Humans realize the possibility of extraterrestrial life on the Moon.

This news quickly reached Su Chen's ears, and he was somewhat surprised.

"It seems the Moon is quite mysterious. Deploy a large number of reconnaissance drones to map the area. I want to illuminate the Moon's map within a day!"

With Su Chen's command, reconnaissance drones flew out from the Sub-base, spreading out in all directions like flower petals.

Su Chen realized something. In his own world, there might not be extraterrestrial life, but here, it was possible that extraterrestrial beings resided on the Moon!

The livestream continued, but the theme had changed this time. It became about a group of people searching for evidence of extraterrestrial presence on the Moon.

As they carefully searched, they discovered quite a few metal fragments. Some of these fragments didn't seem to belong to the same object. Part of the metal was recognizable to them, but there was a larger portion of metal that they had never seen before.

Since most of the people who came this time were fifth-order Transcendents, they couldn't exist in a vacuum environment for extended periods. So, Su Chen had his subordinates construct oxygen-enriched structures where they could rest.

With a buffer of time, these people worked even harder to search for traces of extraterrestrial beings on the Moon. Eventually, they made a discovery.

"Reporting to Emperor Kong, a suspected location of extraterrestrial habitation was found about 800 kilometers to the north," Ju Ling said to Su Chen.

Su Chen opened the map, but it showed up as black, indicating that his reconnaissance drones hadn't reached there yet.

"Forget it, let's go directly. It's not far anyway."

For Emperor Kong, a distance of 800 kilometers wasn't considered very far, especially with the Celestial Armor, which greatly enhanced his speed.

After a while, Su Chen appeared at Emperor Kong's location with some people. At this moment, Emperor Kong's livestream hadn't been turned off. When people saw Su Chen appear, they excitedly screamed one after another.

As the Emperor of the Red Alert empire, he was also the savior who rescued Humans from the darkness of the Apocalypse. If someone didn't recognize Su Chen, sorry, there was no way to communicate!

Su Chen looked downward. This was the bottom of a circular crater. There were many houses carved into caves below, with various tools inside. It was strange thoughsome were made of pottery, while others were metal products. He even saw some bronze objects. It was quite a mix.

"What have you found?" Su Chen looked at Emperor Kong.

"I did a simple search and found this." Emperor Kong took out something that looked like a firestarter stick. But upon closer inspection, one could see that it was also made of metal on the inside.

Suddenly, Emperor Kong triggered something in the stick. In an instant, a laser beam appeared from the top of the stick, maintaining a length of more than a meter without changing.

"This is... a lightsaber?" Su Chen was taken aback.

Yes, this ugly-looking firestarter stick was actually a lightsaber hilt. This technology wasn't even available at the Red Alert base.

Just think about it. Instead of having every Red Alert soldier carry a dagger, they could carry a lightsaber. How cool would that be?

Su Chen played with the lightsaber for a while and found it quite enjoyable, primarily because it looked cool!

"I want this thing. You can choose any technology from the Red Alert base for exchange," Su Chen said seriously.

Although they had become the Red Alert empire, Su Chen had always kept the empire separate from his own base. When it came to the base's technology, if the empire needed it, they would generally exchange it for various things. This time was no exception.

The Human Emperor could understand. His personal power and the empire's power were two different things. Even their own personal power was separate from the empire's power.

The only thing they could do was to work hard to enrich the empire's power.

When Red Alert base's technology was mentioned, a hint of eagerness flickered in Emperor Kong's eyes. Leaving aside everything else, just the technology that allowed them to appear on the Moon was enough to make him envious.

But he knew that even if this technology was exchanged, it would take them a long time to fully understand it. In that case, it would be better to choose a technology they could master quickly. "I choose gravity technology!" Emperor Kong made his choice.

Gravity technology was a miraculous ability to increase gravity in a specific area. With this technology, they could have soldiers train inside with higher gravity, so even if they traveled to other planets with higher gravity than Earth, they wouldn't have too much physical burden.

Emperor Kong had considered the future. He knew that if Su Chen could bring them to the Moon, it was only a matter of time before they traveled to other planets.

He hadn't forgotten that Su Chen had mentioned wanting to attack Yan Yun Star. That was a planet 0.5 light years away from Earth!

In the past, even if they had died of old age, they wouldn't have been able to travel there. With Su Chen, everything was possible.

Su Chen smiled faintly. He knew Emperor Kong would choose this technology. The overall enhancement in Human strength due to gravity technology was obvious. As long as Emperor Kong's mind wasn't muddled, he would definitely choose it.

When Su Chen showcased gravity technology on the Moon, he had thought about this.

Not long after, all the information about gravity technology was handed over to Emperor Kong, while the lightsaber was given to Yun Ru for her to research quickly.

However, Su Chen didn't expect that this "quickly" would be so fast.

In just one day, Yun Ru had thoroughly understood the technology behind the lightsaber.

"The technology of the lightsaber isn't that difficult. There were just some aspects I hadn't considered before. With the actual object and the boost from the combat lab, is one day really that long?" Yun Ru tilted her head and looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen's mouth twitched, indicating he didn't want to talk.

With the lightsaber in hand, Su Chen directly manufactured a large number of them, preparing to provide one for each Red Alert unitexcept for some special units, of course.

Could he let the Beastmen, who were proud of their physical abilities, wield lightsabers and engage in melee combat?

Thinking about that scene was simply too wonderful!

Apart from the lightsabers, they didn't find any extraterrestrial beings. It seemed like all the extraterrestrial beings who lived on the Moon had died.

"That's impossible. According to our research, these places seemed to have inhabitants a few years ago. It's not possible for them to all disappear suddenly. Could they be on the other side of the Moon?" Emperor Kong said.

Su Chen suddenly remembered. The Moon's situation was special; it always had one side facing Earth, while the other side remained shrouded in darkness. Maybe there were extraterrestrial beings living on that side.

"Then let's form some exploration teams and go over to explore," Su Chen said with a raised eyebrow.

He knew that Humans were afraid of the unknown, but there were also some who were filled with enthusiasm for the unknown!

As soon as the decision for exploration was announced, it received agreement from many people. They signed up eagerly, all wanting to go to the far side of the Moon to see if they could find extraterrestrial beings. (To be continued...)
