A month has passed since Yang Dao had visited the Goldbergs. That day the boy told them what he wished to do. He did not reveal any details and asked them whether they were willing to move along with him. Khal Goldberg was a little confused but as soon as he heard the brief pitch made by Yang Dao. He bought the ticket to the moon.
Today Mikhail Goldberg and Yang Dao were sitting behind columns of monitoring stations. This place was built on the southern coastal shore of the nation. It was guarded by the military, but Yang Dao have been given special access. Mikhail Goldberg was here as the partner of the company. CTS Limited.
They dealt with space aviation and research. When the news was made public a week ago, it took the world by storm. None of the people imagined that Yang Dao will be making such a big leap. There were a lot of people who asked him why did he advance towards the stars?
He told the media that humans were not worth researching and guiding. They were a sort of parasites that were living off their world and never thinking about how the resource consumption was going to make it hard for the people and how the future generation will be left with only the option of slaughter to feed themselves.
His statement caused a lot of dispute but he did not shrink away. He stuck to his statement and told the humans the facts. The facts about how the green forests were flattened out to make living areas for humans. How the city was badly managed and the corruption. These things were all man-made and thus the criticism was to be handled by the humans as well.
The people gradually calmed down. Yang Dao did not hide an ounce of humiliation and disdain in his words. The statement Yang Dao gave was known as the Dawn Of Humans. In the second half of his statements, a lot of people asked what he meant and the Dao Child preached to them the importance of conserving nature.
The helping hand initiative from Yang Dao had already covered up half of the planet and nuclear fusion was supplying the other half of the world. The people had become aware of what they needed to do. However, it was still too soon to be not worried about exploitation.
Yang Dao and Mikhail Goldberg sat next to each other, in front of them on a monitor the scene of the tarmac was being displayed. The technicians on the panels were all busy calculating the final sequence.
Laohu Bai was responsible for the security of the place. The last thing that anyone wanted was for a bunch of hyper humans rushing over and slaughtering people. The situation with New Dawn was very critical these days. There have been signs of movement. Omega has given up the digital front and was operating underground.
Shadows had located him but they did not have exact intel about what the plan was going to be. Thus the situation was set on alert. Yang Dao suddenly stood up and said to Mikhail Goldberg, "Senior Mikhail, I have something to do. I will be back in a bit. You can do the ignition. My stomach has been a little upset these past few days."
Mikhail nodded with a little stiffness. He was afraid about the flight they had planned. This was the space they were talking about the whole world was gazing at them like a ferocious tiger. One mistake and the world will be grilling them like dead meat. At this moment, Yang Dao vanished from his seat, it gave Mikhail enough adrenaline for one life.
The chief technician said, "Sir, everything is ready. Shall we begin?"
Mikhail nodded as he took a deep breath. The chief technician gulped and said, "Initiate command. Taxi phase one is a go."
Several people began to crunch the keyboards in front of them and a chart displaying the status of operation turned green.
On the runway, stood a behemoth. This plane was called M617, made by Goldberg aviation factories. This plane was a quad-engine jet. It can climb the peak of the stratosphere. The highest for any aircraft. This plane could carry half of its weight and needed a seven-men crew to fly it.
This plane was used in air postal services and global monitoring and stealth bombing. So the power was sufficient. The plane was modified for this mission, it was a drone version. The fuselage was carrying another aircraft over it. It was something that the world has never seen. The body of the aircraft above seemed to be seamless. Sleek lines and smart outlook. It was as of the plane was built of some fluid frozen by nature.
After the inner crew received the go, they started the engines. With a rumble, the plane began to pick up speed as it ran on the tarmac. After attaining the terminal velocity the wheels left the surface and began to climb the sky. The remote crew gradually increased the output and the height of the plane increased.
Within thirty minutes, the plane was already at the top of the stratosphere. Inside the command center, the crew notified Mikhail. The man looked around to check if Yang Dao had returned and finally he said, "Detach."
The chief technician said, "Detach sequence initiate."
The crew replied, "Sequence initial..." however, his words stopped.
The chief technician asked, "FD confirm command status." his voice woke up the young guy behind the screen.
The technician replied, "Sir, there is someone inside the Fluid cockpit. The aircraft is being controlled manually."
These words shocked the whole command center to silence. Mikhail stood up from his chair and asked, "What do you mean. How can there be someone inside the cockpit? Was it not checked before the flight initiation? Use the remote command to make the plane land. This is not a joke."
His roar woke up people from the shock and daze. Suddenly, they heard a soft magnetic voice, "This is Fluid, Command, this is Fluid. Do you copy, over?"
The chief technician grabbed the microphone on his station and said, "Fluid, this is command. We read you. Do not worry, we are trying to get the bird back on the ground, over."
The pilot replied, "Command, thank you for your concern. This is pilot Yang Dao. I have taken over the command of the bird. Do not worry, things are in control, will be in touch. Over and out. Shhhh..."
The people had their mouths wide open. They did not know how to react to this situation. Suddenly a cold voice rang out in the command center, making the people shiver, "What is the situation?"
Feng Yun had arrived in the control room.
