59: Chapter 59 Target: The Moon, Takeoff

Su Fan left Kyoto City on the kunpeng no. 1.

This trip to Kyoto confirmed the future way of interaction between the Super God Group and the official authorities of the Xia Nation, determined the date for the first manned moon landing, and established a cooperative relationship to face the lunar crisis together.

Additionally, the elders requested a few moon landing spots from Su Fan.

It was already evening when they returned to Nanshan Base. The staff tidied up and went to their dormitories to rest. Tomorrow, they would conduct a comprehensive inspection of the kunpeng no. 1.

Su Fan took Zhou Xiaoxiao back to the villa at Nanshan Base, and then they each returned to their respective rooms to rest.

Su Fan lay on the bed and opened the interface of the super god black technology system.

Today, he wanted to redeem two types of black technology.

The first black technology was Quantum Reconnaissance Lunar Rover technology, mainly used for reconnaissance and monitoring of the mysterious areas on the far side of the moon.

The Quantum Reconnaissance Lunar Rover uses Quantum Communication, which can transmit sound and images back to Earth in real-time. Its power supply method is the Super God Battery plus solar energy.

That is right, a very backward power supply method, but there was no other way. The Super God Battery had already reached the limit of chemical batteries. To get a battery with more energy, only nuclear batteries would work.

And to produce nuclear batteries, Controlled Nuclear Fusion would not suffice; only by breaking through Controlled Cold Nuclear Fusion could the miniaturization of Controlled Nuclear Fusion be achieved, and only then could nuclear batteries be produced!

Once nuclear batteries were produced, the mechs would have their energy source. Su Fan had been coveting mechs for a long time.

Unfortunately, whether it was Controlled Cold Nuclear Fusion technology or mech technology, they were only available in the Level 2 Civilization section. Su Fan did not yet have the qualification to redeem them!

As for the solar power supply method of the Quantum Reconnaissance Lunar Rover, although it was very old, it was very durable and stable.

Moreover, the solar panels used by this thing had a much higher efficiency than the existing solar panels on Blue Star, generating more electricity under the same conditions and unit area.

A quick note: the moon only permanently faces away from Blue Star, but it does not permanently face away from the sun!

So, the solar panels could be used!

The second black technology was Heavy Exoskeleton Aerospace Armor technology.

The moon landing was in two days. Moon landing, moon landing—people had to walk around on the moon; they could not just stay inside the spaceship the whole time.

The power source for the Heavy Exoskeleton Aerospace Armor was still the Super God Battery. Compared with the previous light infantry exoskeleton armor, it had a stronger load-bearing capacity, higher defensive capabilities, and possessed more comprehensive and rich functions.

The downside was that it was too thick and heavy, its sensitivity was worse than the light version, and it was not very convenient to put on.

However, this thing had great advantages as a spacesuit.

Whether in space or on the moon, what was most important?

Safety was definitely the priority!

The environment on the moon was harsh. The more powerful Heavy Aerospace Armor had various robust life-support functions, which could better guarantee the safety of the astronauts.

Su Fan finished redeeming both black technologies and then began to extract them one by one.

Production was not a problem. Ever since he had the Vacuum Zero-Gravity 3D Printer, most mechanical products of a Level 1 Civilization could be manufactured quickly.

...

Just as Su Fan was extracting the black technology and busy manufacturing the quantum reconnaissance device and the heavy exoskeleton aerospace armor, the Eagle Nation and several coalition countries were in an uproar!

Under the intentional guidance of the Xia Nation officials, the story of a genius youth's revenge quickly spread throughout the Eagle Nation and several coalition countries.

The head of the Eagle Nation, Biden, was jealous of the talent of the Xia Nation's genius youth, Su Fan, and dispatched agents to assassinate him. Not only did he attempt to assassinate Su Fan, but he also formulated a series of sinister plans such as kidnapping and assassinating his family members!

Fortunately, the genius youth Su Fan had a strong life force. Although he was hit by a rocket, he did not die.

So, after his injuries healed, he strove for self-improvement, studied hard, engaged in desperate scientific research, and finally developed and manufactured a powerful spaceship.

Then, he piloted the spaceship to seek revenge on the evil Biden!

Here, Su Fan was portrayed as a righteous avenger, Biden was the devil, and the coalition forces were the devil's accomplices.

In the end, the aircraft carrier fleet, which had cost the country a huge fortune, was destroyed due to Biden's selfish desires!

This story sounded bizarre and was hard for people to believe, but the rulers of the Eagle Nation and other coalition countries needed someone to take the blame for this incident and give the people an explanation.

They did not dare to blame Su Fan; if he were to fly the spaceship and fire a shot at their cities, these rulers were now very afraid of Su Fan.

Therefore, Biden was removed from his position as head of state and thrown into prison; the lightest punishment was life imprisonment!

...

July 10th, Nanshan Base.

Today was a special day. Under the vigorous propaganda of the Xia Nation officials, the news that the Super God Group of the Xia Nation, led by Su Fan, had overcome difficulties and successfully developed and manufactured the kunpeng no. 1 spaceship swept across the entire Xia Nation.

Official media such as Xia Nation News, Xin Xia News Agency, and People's Daily gathered at Nanshan Base again.

The last time they came was on April 20th, the Grain Rain solar term.

Less than three months later, the Super God Group revealed another black technology: the kunpeng no. 1 spaceship was about to land on the moon, and it was a manned moon landing.

The Xia Nation would become the second country on Blue Star to achieve a manned moon landing after the Eagle Nation.

(Whether the Eagle Nation actually succeeded in a manned moon landing has always been a hot topic.)

The kunpeng no. 1 spaceship was already known to everyone in the Xia Nation; it had appeared in Kyoto of the Xia Nation a few days ago, and many netizens had taken videos and posted them online.

Besides this, the Xia Nation officials also released a video of the kunpeng no. 1 being attacked by the Eagle Nation coalition forces without any damage, as well as a video of it being forced to defend itself and wiping out the entire coalition fleet with one shot.

Once these two videos were released, all the people of the Xia Nation were ignited, shouting that the Super God Group was awesome and Su Fan was awesome.

For this moon landing, the Super God Group would send three astronauts, and the Xia Nation officials would send two.

Why did only five people go on this moon landing mission when the spaceship could carry so many?

The reason was simple: safety issues.

After all, this was the first time performing a mission on the moon. Whether the kunpeng no. 1 could withstand the harsh space environment and the lunar environment was something that could only be known after trying; test data being fine did not mean there would not be problems in reality.

There was also the issue of the mysterious area on the moon, which was a thorn in their side; if it was not removed as soon as possible, there would always be a sense of unease.

Therefore, it was impossible to send too many people on this first moon landing.

The final candidates for the three moon landing spots from the Super God Group were: Zhang Qiling, Wu Xiangtian, and Chen Ping'an.

The final candidates for the two moon landing spots from the Xia Nation officials were: Wang Tianyu and Lu Ruixiang.

Among the five, Zhang Qiling would serve as the captain.

Everything was ready. Witnessed by on-site staff, the families of the moon landing personnel, official representatives, and various media personnel, the five stepped into the gate of the kunpeng no. 1.

General Commander Su Fan stood on the temporarily erected command platform and solemnly said: "Today will surely be a day recorded in the history of the Xia Nation!"

"The five heroes will carry the ardent expectations of all the children of the Xia Clan worldwide and the beautiful yearning for Chang'e flying to the moon, resolutely heading to the moon."

"Now, I announce!"

"kunpeng no. 1, liftoff!"
