Chapter 147 – Attack! Jupiter II!
Japan, Mount Fuji:
Under the horrified gazes of many tourists, the Life Sphere rolled and bounced down from the top of the mountain, only coming to a stop when it collided with the fence at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing this, Chen Yu, who was hovering high in the sky, immediately turned off the plasma engine and descended.
Boom!
Chen Yu landed heavily with a loud noise, his landing sending dirt and gravel into the air. Cracks had also formed on the tiles he landed on.
Meanwhile, the vibrations his impact caused had spread at least several dozen meters away…
“ウルトラマン! (Ultraman!)”
“The extraterrestrial incident that happened many years ago might be a scout?”
“Maybe they’re starting their relocation…”
After listening to the villagers’ chattering, Chen Yu could not help but laugh. “Interesting.”
[Lololol.]
[They’re treating UP as an alien. How dumb.]
[They’re just misinformed. What’s there to feel superior about?]
[Perhaps, what they’re saying might be the truth.]
[Truth. +1]
Whir…
Just as Chen Yu was about to ignore the villagers and continue with his review, four military helicopters slowly approached from a distance and hovered directly above Phoenix Mountain. Armed soldiers then jumped off the helicopters with the help of ropes.
“The soldiers are here!”
“Helicopters!”
The villagers cheered at the soldiers’ arrival.
“We made a huge achievement this time!”
“We’ll definitely be receiving medals and a 500-yuan reward!”
“The government sure is good. They’re afraid that we’ll get bullied by aliens, so they even specifically deployed troops to protect us.”
Boom, boom, boom…
When the armed soldiers landed, they promptly started driving the villagers away without hesitation.
The villagers: “???”
“Mr. King, the area has been cleared. Those people won’t affect your show anymore.” A minute later, the captain of the soldiers approached Chen Yu and saluted him. “You can continue with your program.”
“Okay, thank you.”
Nodding, Chen Yu stopped paying attention to the villagers and looked toward the two astronauts, asking, “Looking at your outfits, are you planning to go to space?”
“Yes. We wish to visit one of Jupiter’s moon, Jupiter II.”
“Jupiter II?”
“Yes.” The two astronauts nodded earnestly.
“I know what you’re trying to do.” Chen Yu’s eyes glowed with excitement and realization. Without hesitation, he took out two items from his backplate’s storage.
One was the glove for his right hand.
The other was the High-frequency Lightsaber.
“I’m definitely participating in this interesting endeavor. Let’s go.” After saying so, Chen Yu put on his armored glove and approached the Interstellar Portal to establish a spatial link with Jupiter’s second moon.
Meanwhile, with the surrounding soldiers’ help, the two astronauts squeezed into the Life Sphere and tightly shut the hatch.
Buzz!
As the spatial link was established, a world of black and white appeared beyond the arch.
“Will your suits be fine?” Chen Yu asked skeptically as he picked up the Life Sphere. “That place is considerably cold. Don’t die.”
“This spacesuit is made of a double-layer aluminum-plated polyimide film with a special neoprene sealing layer inside, which provides good heat insulation. Thank you for your concern.”
“But…” In a low tone, Chen Yu asked, “Aren’t your spacesuits a little too light? Where’s the outer protective cover?”
After a moment of silence, one of the astronauts pulled at the outer nylon layer of his spacesuit and said, “…We only have this.”
[This is the spirit of dedication!]
[I’m tearing up. What about you guys?]
[I’m crying.]
[I’m crying.]
[I covered my mouth to prevent myself from crying, as well as beatbox while I’m at it.]
[I heard there’s life inside Jupiter II?]
[This is a good move from the government. Jupiter II’s surface consists entirely of a frozen ocean. There’s a high chance that life exists within it.]
[Jupiter II is very geologically active. The temperature below the frozen surface is relatively high.]
[Isn’t the ice layer very thick? How do they plan on breaking through it?]
[It should be enough to just take some ice samples from the surface. Moreover, you can survey the ocean below with the right equipment.]
[Didn’t you see UP taking out his 40-meter cleaver?]
Chen Yu stood in place and gave the two astronauts a deep look. He then shrugged and said, “You guys really have guts. Fine, then. Pay attention to your safety. I’m very interested in this activity, so I’ll help out.”
After Chen Yu said so, under the gaze of several dozen armed soldiers and the livestream’s one million viewers, he stepped through the Interstellar Portal and instantly crossed over a distance of 700 million kilometers, arriving on the frozen Jupiter II…
Boom!
After setting the sphere down, Chen Yu stepped back and stretched out his hand, saying, “Please start your performance.”
Inside the sphere, after the two astronauts exchanged one last look with each other, they pulled down the sealing layer of their helmets and activated their life support system. They then decisively opened the hatch and exited the sphere!
