Chapter 514 Getting ready to go home
As Pei Yun had said, the outside world was in chaos, mainly because the top leaders of the Holy Land Alliance and the City A headquarters were fighting for power.
In recent years, the headquarters of the A City base has long been divided due to the tough and arbitrary style of "Yi Tianfeng". The reason why the supernatural beings of the Holy Land Alliance were able to occupy the headquarters so quickly was because most of the senior executives of the headquarters secretly defected to Chu Zewen's side.
The current situation is a time for power reshuffle. Without the suppression of the chief leader Chu Zewen, the contradiction between the old forces and the new forces has become increasingly fierce, and they are fighting against each other.
The return of Chu Zewen has calmed down the arrogance of both sides. After all, whether in terms of strength or prestige, Chu Zewen today is just like "Yi Tianfeng" in his heyday. What's more, he has a backer whose strength surpasses everyone else.
However, these people would not give up easily. As soon as Chu Zewen came back, the senior executives of the base headquarters, except for a few people like Deputy Minister Zhao who were imprisoned awaiting trial, including Deputy Minister Zhou An's uncle, jointly wrote a letter to Chu Zewen requesting that Chu Zewen establish the headquarters of the Holy Land Alliance in City A.
Of course, according to their idea, it would be best to transform the original base headquarters into the headquarters of the Holy Land Alliance.
When the top leaders of the Holy Land Alliance heard the news, they excitedly approached Chu Zewen and cast their veto votes.
What a joke! These old guys from the original base headquarters actually want to hold on to the power of the Holy Land Alliance. Who is the winner? Who is the loser?
The top leaders of both sides gathered in the conference room and started arguing with a tense attitude, almost ready to fight over the table!
Chu Zewen was very disappointed. When he told them the truth about "Yi Tianfeng" and reminded everyone to be vigilant against future alien civilizations invading the source star, they all kept silent and did not raise any opinions. Instead, they argued endlessly about such trivial matters.
They only care about their own interests and are short-sighted.
After half a month of discussion, the top leaders of both sides finally decided to keep the Holy Land Alliance headquarters in City K. However, the top leaders of the original base would occupy 30% of the management positions and open up the highest authority to them, that is, the transfer of resources.
That night, after a meeting, Chu Zewen came to Pei Yun's temporary villa. He took out a storage ring and handed it to her: "All the meteorites in the headquarters are now in it."
He knew that the reason why Pei Yun was still in City A was because of the agreement between them. After he dealt with Yi Tianfeng personally, he would give all the meteorites in the headquarters warehouse to her.
In fact, the top management argued about this matter for two days. They did not dare to offend Pei Yun, but many people were dissatisfied with giving all the existing meteorites in the headquarters to Pei Yun.
Although these meteorites pose radiation hazards, everything has its pros and cons. Scientists have been researching and exploring them in recent years, such as the effect of radioactive substances in meteorites on genetic modification. Once a discovery is made, it may be possible to break through Source Star's existing technology in various fields.
Research institutes like the one where Wan Xiaoqing works are currently studying how to use this radioactive material to cause the genes of ordinary people to mutate into those with special abilities. This is also the hottest research on Yuanxing at present.
Therefore, the senior executives were very dissatisfied with Pei Yun taking away so many meteorites by himself. The senior executives of both sides were surprisingly consistent in this understanding. Of course, they did not dare to say in front of Chu Zewen, "Those who are not of my race must have different hearts."
Chu Zewen was unusually assertive about this matter. "Everyone, the techniques you cultivate and the resources you possess were all acquired from Senior Pei. It was Senior Pei who helped us, the Yuanxing people, resist the invasion of alien civilization. We are only fulfilling our promise now. Are you only taking without giving anything in return?"
After being exposed, the senior executives present at the time laughed awkwardly and were too embarrassed to speak.
Pei Yun took the storage ring, explored it with his spiritual sense, took out half of it, and returned the other half to Chu Zewen.
"I've already obtained most of the meteorites on Origin Star. I'll leave them to the scientists on Origin Star for research. The power of time and space I've absorbed is enough for me to return home..."
Hearing this, Chu Zewen's heart trembled. He stared at the person in front of him without blinking and said, "...Are you going home?"
"That's right. After I return to K City and say goodbye to Old White and the others, I'll be leaving."
Pei Yun avoided his burning gaze and took out the Rubik's Cube Crystal that he had looted from Astor.
"This thing is indeed similar to the storage magic tool I gave you, but it is not opened by spiritual consciousness, but by the power of time and space."
As he spoke, Pei Yun took Chu Zewen to an empty and deserted square.
After the power of time and space was injected into the magic cube crystal, the things inside appeared. Pei Yun took all these things out and piled them in the square.
Chu Zewen's gaze rested on the most conspicuous spaceship. This spaceship was several times larger than Yuanxing's fighter jet, and its entire body was glowing with a silver luster. The two entered it and explored it. They couldn't help but marvel at it and became very interested in the planet where Aster was.
"This is..." In addition to the spaceship, there are also half-human-high black cylinders in the crystal. "It may be the fuel needed for the spaceship..." Chu Zewen guessed.
Pei Yun noticed the "Citrus" piled up like a small mountain nearby. She picked up a piece of "Citrus" and examined it for a moment. Her eyes immediately became sparkling and she said in surprise:
"Such a rich spiritual energy, comparable to a high-grade spiritual stone. No, it's even purer than a high-grade spiritual stone. Most importantly... it actually contains the power of time and space..."
Seeing this, Chu Zewen also came to Pei Yun and studied it carefully. He happened to glance and saw a translucent chip in the corner. He picked up the chip and checked it, but there was no change on the chip.
Pei Yun also noticed his actions. After taking the chip, he thought about it and injected the power of time and space into it. Sure enough, the next moment the chip was lit up and projected a screen of void into the air.
Neither of them recognized the words on the screen. They looked at each other, and Chu Zewen reached out and clicked on the words randomly. After a few seconds, a person suddenly jumped out of the empty screen. This person spoke something to the screen that neither of them could understand, and then disappeared.
"...I suspect this chip might be a communicator from Aster's planet. This should be a video recording of a conversation between him and the people on his planet."
Pei Yun also agreed with his point of view, but still reminded: "...The crisis on Yuanxing has not been completely resolved. If one Astor dies, they can send another Astor to infiltrate Yuanxing. And I suggest that you still conduct a thorough investigation. There may be aliens lurking among the Yuanxing people..."
Chu Zewen's expression became solemn, he pursed his lips and nodded.
Pei Yun did not monopolize Aster's treasures. She took 90% of the "yellow crystal" and gave the rest to Chu Zewen.
The spaceship is of little use to her, but it is of great use to Yuanxing. Before his death, Aster revealed the existence of the Interstellar Alliance. If the people of Yuanxing want to truly get rid of the crisis of alien invasion, they must go out and join the Interstellar Alliance. Then this spaceship will be a very important means of transportation.
After dividing the treasures, Pei Yun prepared to set off on the Suzaku puppet to K City, but unexpectedly, Chu Zewen went back with her.
"Pei... Pei Yun, let me see you off before you leave."
Chu Zewen forced a smile, suppressing the emotions in his heart, and said, "You also contributed to the establishment of K City, but you have never been to K City. Why don't I take you there to have a look and meet Old White and the others..."
"……it is good."
