United Nations Conference Hall.
When Special Envoy Zhang asked if anyone else had objections, the entire room fell silent; not a single person spoke.
Seeing this, Special Envoy Zhang smiled slightly and said, "Since no one objects, the proposal is approved, and the Blue Star United Government will officially enter the preparatory stage."
After Special Envoy Zhang finished speaking, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief. Then, scattered applause broke out, and more and more people joined in. In the end, everyone applauded, whether they wanted to or not.
Since the formation of a coalition government is inevitable, their next consideration is how to maximize their national interests within that coalition!
At the same time, Ye Chen and Li Muyue inspected all of the Mousse Group's production plants, technology centers and branches, and made adjustments to the research and production plans for the next few years.
The production and sales of general civilian products were gradually separated, with only one or two high-end products retained. The rest were licensed to other companies for production, with only patent fees collected. The freed-up technical resources and production capacity were all converted to the production of military equipment.
To meet the material needs of the solar system defense plan, the Mousse Group has added several mining bases in the asteroid belt.
In this way, the construction needs of the first defense perimeter of the solar system defense plan can be basically met.
At a fixed time each month, Ye Chen would take some time to visit the Kuiper Base and send all the accumulated minerals into the Morning Moon Cave.
Morning Moon Cave mainly produces spaceships, and with sufficient resources, it still maintains a production rate of one spaceship every three days.
If aliens were to reach the solar system, given their reconnaissance capabilities, the solar system's fixed defense systems would be virtually invisible. In that case, the contest would be based on sheer strength.
Therefore, the fleet produced in Morning Moon Cave will serve as a surprise force, and may well determine the outcome of the battle at a crucial moment.
It took Ye Chen and Li Muyue nearly three months to complete this inspection and adjustment.
At their final stop, Ye Chen and Li Muyue bid farewell to the staff of Europa and boarded their private spaceship.
Before returning to Earth, they planned to travel to the Kuiper Base to collect this month's resources.
On the spaceship, Ye Chen looked at Li Muyue and noticed that she looked a little tired. He couldn't help but ask with concern, "Muyue, are you alright? You've been following me around on inspections for the past three months. You must have worked so hard."
Li Muyue rubbed her temples, gave a wry smile, and said softly, "I used to work non-stop for days on end without feeling tired. It seems I'm getting old and my energy is waning."
As she spoke, she subconsciously touched the crow's feet that didn't exist at the corner of her eye, then turned to look at Ye Chen and asked, "Look, do I have wrinkles?"
Ye Chen reached out and put his arm around her slender waist, smiling as he said, "Let me see, where are the wrinkles? You're even younger and more charming than when I first met you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Muyue smiled, rolled her eyes at Ye Chen, and said reproachfully, "You say nice things, but who knows what you're really thinking?"
Ye Chen reached out and gently pinched her nose, saying tenderly, "Mu Yue, don't worry, even when we're old, you'll still be the most beautiful in my heart."
A blush crept onto Li Muyue's face. She lightly scoffed and said shyly, "You're such a smooth talker."
Ye Chen gently embraced Li Muyue and whispered, "I'm telling you the truth. With you by my side, I feel that everything has become more meaningful."
Li Muyue leaned against Ye Chen's chest, feeling his warmth, and her heart was filled with happiness.
She reached out and gently stroked Ye Chen's face, saying softly, "Husband, I feel very happy with you here."
The two embraced each other, enjoying the tranquility and warmth of the moment.
However, their cozy moment didn't last long before it was interrupted by Sonoko's warning: "Warning, an unknown spacecraft signal has been detected near Kuiper Base and is approaching the base!"
Ye Chen and Li Muyue were startled and quickly separated, heading to the control panel.
Li Muyue's expression turned somewhat grim as she asked, "Could it be an alien reconnaissance spacecraft?"
Ye Chen also frowned, fiddled with the equipment, pulled up the base's radar map, shook his head and said, "It's still uncertain. I've already ordered the Lu Wu to investigate the source of the signal."
The Luwu was an armed spaceship that was originally left at the Kuiper base to be on guard duty, and was later named Luwu by Li Muyue.
Lu Wu is one of the guardian deities of Kunlun Mountain in Chinese mythology.
Under the tense gaze of Ye Chen and Li Muyue, the Luwu gradually approached the mysterious signal it had detected.
...
In deep space, 30 million kilometers away from the Kuiper base, Wang Yuxi was piloting a small spaceship, speeding toward the Kuiper base at an extremely fast pace.
A week ago, while exploring the Kuiper Belt, she inadvertently discovered a signal with a very strange trajectory.
This signal was completely different from the trajectory of a typical asteroid, and its appearance aroused Wang Yuxi's strong curiosity.
So she piloted her spaceship and gave chase without hesitation.
As the spaceship ventured deeper into the ocean, Wang Yuxi was surprised to find that these strange signals were becoming more and more numerous. Her heart raced, and her curiosity grew like a snowball.
Finally, after tracing the trajectories of the five signals, Wang Yuxi discovered that they had a common convergence point.
The discovery made her eyes widen, her body involuntarily leaning forward, her hands gripping the control panel tightly, as if trying to pry the answer out of the screen.
The loud pounding of her heart could be clearly heard in the silent cabin. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, but her fingers were already moving rapidly across the control panel, activating the ship's signal jamming system and putting it into a silent state.
At this moment, Wang Yuxi was less than 10 million kilometers away from the signal gathering point. Her eyes were fixed on a signal on the screen, and she kept a distance of about 100,000 kilometers from it, carefully following it as she flew towards the signal gathering point.
However, she was unaware that countless miniature detectors had been installed over a radius of nearly 20 million kilometers around the Kuiper base.
Shortly after she entered the 20 million kilometer range, her spacecraft was detected by a probe.
At this moment, she was still immersed in the excitement of about to uncover the mystery, completely unaware that her spaceship had been exposed.
She believed she was perfectly concealed and completely unaware of the situation ahead. Little did she know that less than 200,000 kilometers ahead, the Luwu had already locked onto her ship and was ready to destroy this uninvited guest at any moment.
