0510. Shock on All Sides of the Earth
solar system.
The nine planets are eternally circulating and contain infinite mysteries.
Very close to the moon, in the pitch-black vacuum, a strange dark cyan light suddenly flashed, and the space seemed to be torn open by something. A black shadow appeared, and then ripples circulated. , a white aircraft dived out of the shadows like a giant whale emerging from the water.
"It's the moon."
"That blue...earth!"
"We're back."
"God, I'm not dreaming."
"We're really back."
When they saw the familiar moon and the dreaming blue planet appear in sight, all the team members on the [Pioneer] roared with excitement.
Everyone could no longer control their emotions, and tears poured out of their eyes crazily!
"It's the Earth, it's really the Earth."
Song Changlin, a man from the northwest, also burst into tears and burst into tears.
Su Cuo on the side covered his eyes with his hands, squatted down slowly, and sobbed silently, tears flowing from his fingers.
It's all like a dream.
Li Mu stood in front of the view window of the command module, looking at the planet in front of him that was gradually becoming clearer, and he couldn't help but feel extremely excited.
Finally back, really back.
After being away from the earth for nearly five years and experiencing magnificent ups and downs that ordinary people could not imagine, he is finally back.
Although the [Pioneer] is still nearly 400,000 kilometers away from the earth at this time, compared with the 39 light-years when it was in the Perseus region, it is as if it has already set foot on the earth. The distance is simply negligible.
After the great excitement, the scientific expedition team members began to force themselves to calm down and control the Pioneer, crossing the moon's gravitational circle and approaching the earth.
At the same time, radio wave communications were launched through various channels and began to contact the earth.
…
…
2022, September 27, autumn.
United States, Washington, National Space Administration.
It was 3:35 a.m. local time.
Howard, the night shift worker, was lying down in front of the instrument and taking a nap. He was suddenly woken up from his sleep by a strange and strange signal. He looked at the monitor blankly, then opened his mouth and drooled on it. have no idea.
"[Pioneer]...what is this...could it be, God, could it be that [Pioneer]?"
Howard was an old researcher. He had heard a lot about a secret from thirty years ago. He was suddenly startled and his sleepiness disappeared. He immediately realized something and quickly connected to the internal line to report to his superiors.
Less than three minutes later, NASA Administrator Charles was alerted.
Soon, the communications command room was filled with senior officials and experts from the Space Agency.
Everyone listened to the voice coming from the communicator in disbelief.
"Earth, Earth, this is [Pioneer], this is [Pioneer], we are returning, I am Captain Andrew, no matter who you are, after hearing this signal, please answer..."
The [Pioneer], which mysteriously disappeared for thirty years, is back.
This is incredible.
In the original design, although the [Pioneer] had sufficient fuel to support long voyages, it would not be able to sustain it for thirty years.
Thirty years ago, the Space Agency and the various countries that participated in this operation, after the [Pioneer] mysteriously disappeared, and after thorough investigations, they unanimously came to the conclusion that the spacecraft had a power failure due to some kind of power failure. The reason is that it drifted out of the solar system and eventually disappeared into the void of the universe, with no possibility of coming back.
But now, it's back?
"There is a video signal transmitted in." A researcher said loudly with a slightly trembling voice: "It comes from the [Pioneer]."
"Quick, get through."
NASA Administrator Charles trembled.
When the picture came in, everyone held their breath, because everyone understood that this matter was really weird. Thirty years later, what secret did the [Pioneer] bring back?
"Oh my God."
"It's Howard, how can he be so young."
"It's them……"
There was an exclamation in the communication hall.
…
…
2022, China, Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base.
4pm Beijing time.
"Two hours ago, we received a signal from the [Pioneer]. The senders were Su Cuo and Song Changlin."
The words of the low-level person in charge, Lieutenant General Lu Bing, stirred up waves.
"The [Pioneer] that mysteriously disappeared thirty years ago?"
"How is this going?"
"Could it be that the radio waves from thirty years ago traveled a long distance and came to the earth?"
"Haven't we stopped monitoring the radio signals on the [Pioneer]?"
The researchers, military experts and generals present were all shocked.
Lieutenant General Lu Bing knocked on the table gently, and the room immediately became quiet, and then said: "It's not the radio wave thirty years ago, but now... According to Comrade Su Cuo's description, they are returning and have passed the moon. In four hours, we can enter the Earth's atmosphere and land."
"What?"
"Oh my God, what the hell is going on?"
"This is impossible. Wasn't that mission of the spaceship thirty years ago a failure? There was no hibernation cabin at that time. Su Cuo and the others...are still alive?"
The conference room was filled with exclamations again.
Things are getting more and more incredible.
Vice Admiral Lu Bing himself found it unbelievable. No matter from which point of view, it was impossible for the [Pioneer] to return in thirty years. However, the fact that this was the case made him also find it unbelievable.
After coughing and attracting everyone's attention, Lieutenant General Lu Bing said: "Everyone, this is not the time to marvel. Some of you who are doing this are participants in the [Pioneer] operation thirty years ago, and some are the most powerful people in our country today." Famous aerospace experts, leaders of the Strategic Support Department, and experts from the other two major satellite bases are arriving as soon as possible... According to the information provided by Comrade Su Cuo, [Pioneer] will arrive in four hours. , landed in Gansu, China, less than a hundred miles away from our base, do you have any suggestions?"
…
…
The same thing happened one after another in the aerospace military departments of Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Russia and other countries.
Several major countries have received radio signals from their respective members and confirmed the news.
Between the big powers, an intense layout and contest with no visible gunpowder immediately started.
Realizing the significance of [Pioneer] returning to Earth, no one dares to relax at all. It is very likely that this will be an underground contest that changes the pattern of the earth. Now all major countries are almost certain that on [Pioneer] , hiding huge secrets and opportunities.
The only thing that makes them feel troublesome is that the landing place of the [Pioneer] is within the territory of a superpower like China, rather than on the high seas or other non-sovereign areas. Fight for them the secrets and resources on the [Pioneer] , brought huge difficulties.
…
…
Rumble.
[Pioneer] has been modified to ensure its return safety after entering the atmosphere.
The choice of the landing location in China was of course Li Mu's opinion.
This is due to his selfishness as a Chinese.
The spacecraft that returned from the mainland planet of China brought with it a large amount of rare mineral deposits, various technologies that combined magic and technology, and a lot of information that could shock the world. If it lands in China, those closest to the water will get it first. In March, China can gain the greatest advantage.
This can be regarded as a gift from Li Mu to China and to the earth.
Only by going out for a trip will you understand what kind of dangerous position the earth in the solar system faces in this galaxy. Not only is it surrounded by powerful and terrifying martial arts forces, but it is also considered a sinner. Every human being on earth is a criminal being hunted.
If it weren't for the mysterious power that existed in the solar system, which would isolate and strangle outsiders, the earth would have been carved up and exterminated by these martial arts forces.
Li Mu hopes that what the Pioneer brings back will act as a catalyst for the development of the earth and bring the earth into a new era.
Of course, the twenty-one team members would not have any objections to Li Mu's request.
Because Li Mu is their benefactor, without Li Mu, they would not be able to come back at all and would have to die of old age on a foreign planet. Moreover, in the last month of that world, they also roughly knew Li Mu's strength, status and fame. , at this time, naturally he did not dare to show any disrespect to Li Mu.
A violent shock was felt.
The [Pioneer], which was like a fireball, finally broke into the atmosphere.
"Everything that follows will be left to you. I have to take the first step." Li Mu called Su Cuo and Song Changlin into a conference room alone and said, "Today's world may be the same as you were thirty years ago." It’s not the same, just get used to it slowly. You will definitely be very busy in the next period of time, very busy. I wish you good luck.”
"Aren't you coming with us?" Song Changlin asked in surprise.
Li Mu smiled and said, "No, I've done everything I need to do. Next, I'm going to find some friends on earth. I like freedom and don't like to be restricted."
Su Cuo suddenly said: "Xiao Mu, have you ever thought about serving the country? Your strength is like a god. If you are willing to contribute to the country, then..."
Li Mu shook his head and said: "I don't think about it yet. I still have some things to do on earth. If there is really something that needs to be done, I will definitely show up."
Su Cuo nodded and asked, "Can we be honest with the country about you?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Of course, this is not a secret. Otherwise, I can directly use magic to erase your memories."
Su Cuo nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. The beautiful woman smiled, walked over and hugged Li Mu gently, saying, "Xiao Mu, thank you."
Thousands of words, all kinds of gratitude, are all contained in this single word of thanks.
Song Changlin also came over to hug Li Mu.
In the end, before the [Pioneer] landed, Li Mu left early and very covertly.
Boom!
The [Pioneer] landed in the vast Gobi desert at the foot of the Qilian Mountains. The huge shock made the team members in the cabin almost faint.
The hatch opens.
The familiar air hits my face.
Su Cuo and Song Changlin walked out of the hatch first, breathing in the air of their hometown.
In the distance, on the horizon, the sun was about to set. Thousands of meters away, armored vehicles from the military pulled out long plumes of smoke on the Gobi, quickly approached, and surrounded the [Pioneer]. Be on alert.
Then, there are various inspections and tests, identity confirmation, and the most stringent quarantine and disinfection process.
Then, all twenty-one team members were picked up by the Chinese military.
The [Pioneer] was also immediately controlled and transported away by the military.
At the same time, Li Mu's figure appeared in Yumen City hundreds of miles away.
He walked into a Lanzhou beef noodles restaurant.
Eat a bowl first and then talk.

It's very late. Sorry, it won't be so late tomorrow.
