The Ultimate War Of The Apocalypse-Chapter 713 - 706 The Three Heroes of Shenzhou

Busy, but not chaotic.

As squad after squad entered the Serpent People’s spaceship and then the spaceship soared into the air, heading straight up into the mothership, Li Wen looked up at the sky, pointed to the Serpent People’s Mothership, and said, "That is our Mothership now!"

After speaking, Li Wen looked toward the Ark and whispered, "It’s all thanks to this Ark. Can... can I take a look inside?"

Seeing the cautious Li Wen, Xiang Weiguo wished he could slap himself twice, then immediately said, "Of course, you can, Chief! Won’t you go up and take a look inside the Mothership?"

Li Wen glanced at the few people around him, then with a face full of hope, he said, "If possible, of course I want to go and see. There’s no problem with that, right?"

Xinghe personally took Li Wen into the Ark.

Li Wen and a group of old-timers who had held out until now looked at the Ark’s simple inner cabins, which didn’t resemble the interior of a super spaceship at all; their eyes still evoked sympathy.

Xinghe whispered, "We still need to pursue the last Mothership, so we can’t delay here too long, but there’s definitely no problem with taking a tour. Please go up first."

After that, Xinghe shouted loudly, "Axu, enter the interior of the Mothership."

The spaceship took off into the air, and before the highest echelons of Shenzhou could react to what was happening, the Ark entered through the Mothership’s aperture designated for ships, directly bringing Li Wen and the others inside the Mothership.

The spaceship couldn’t reach the core area, but Xiang Weiguo made an inviting gesture and said, "Chief, please get in the car. Take a seat in our modified 59 and go to take over this Mothership."

The modified 59 drove out from inside the Ark, and Li Wen, looking at the modified 59, his expression changed several times before he finally couldn’t help saying, "This name... really is..."

He sat on the roof of the modified 59, and like a curious child, Li Wen and his entourage felt they couldn’t get enough of the sights inside the Serpent People’s Mothership.

Finally, an iron-boned elder put his hands over his eyes, then he began to sob silently.

"It’s truly enormous..."

Li Wen let out a long breath, then he stared at a Serpent Person and whispered, "This is a Serpent Person!"

Xiang Weiguo whispered, "Yes, this is a Serpent Person, Chief. Let me report to you, to ensure we could successfully take over this Mothership, Gao Yuan killed most of the Serpent People, leaving a total of ninety-six of them."

Li Wen’s brows furrowed, and he immediately whispered, "Will there be any problems with maintaining the operations of the Mothership?"

"There will be absolutely no problem. This is a space vessel after all, it must be capable of fully automatic operation. If human operators were essential, the lifespan of the Serpent People wouldn’t suffice, given that a single flight spans thousands of years. However, there are certain functions that require human operation, such as choosing which creatures to manufacture, selecting the deployment locations for these monsters. Although unmanned spaceships can run automatically, they still need someone to issue commands."

The one explaining was Xinghe, and Li Wen immediately relaxed, saying, "As long as it doesn’t affect the operation, that’s what’s important."

Human beings had already begun to enter the Mothership in large numbers, but at the moment it was mainly technological workers. What Gao Yuan and Ram could do now was simply act as observers, especially responsible for ensuring that the communication between humans and the Serpent People didn’t go wrong, mainly to avoid being deceived by the Serpent People.

The Serpent People had already acquired the human language databases and had ready-made translators, but Gao Yuan was still cautious about the possibility of them transmitting false information.

The scientists might not know how to receive a ship belonging to the enemy, but among those who had come up, there would undoubtedly be professionals in charge of handling matters, such as segregating the Serpent People for individual custody, conducting separate interrogations, and understanding how to operate the ship. None of this required Ram’s guidance; there were plenty of experts.

Finally, Gao Yuan and Li Wen met.

The emotions were equally intense, but the greatest feeling in Gao Yuan’s heart was that of a mission accomplished, a trust honored; he had truly achieved it.

When they met again, Gao Yuan’s reaction was much like Xiang Weiguo’s; he forgot everything he was supposed to say. After confirming several times that the lean old man descending from the roof of the modified 59 was indeed Li Wen, he said with astonishment, "How have you lost so much weight?"

Li Wen was filled with emotion. He walked up to take a look at Gao Yuan, who was still in the mecha, and then turned his gaze to the Ram.

The Ram’s mecha helmet opened, and then the Ram said to Li Wen, "Hello, I am Gao Yang, but everybody calls me the Ram."

Li Wen extended his hand towards the Ram, who hesitated for a moment but then shook hands with Li Wen.

"Gao Yang... thank you!"

Li Wen certainly knew of the Ram and said with emotion, "I never imagined that I would meet you under such circumstances, the leader of Satan’s team, the boss of the Solar System, the legendary God of Guns, Gao Yang of the Shenzhou People. You have held the sky for us in Africa, thank you!"

The Ram was also filled with emotions and said seriously, "It’s part of the job."

The two released their hands, and immediately, Gao Yuan said, "Time is of the essence, so I’ll get straight to the point, Commander. We need to pursue another mothership, so we can’t stay here to guard this one. My suggestion is to leave a nuclear bomb here. If the Serpent People play any tricks and the situation gets out of control, it’s better to destroy this mothership. However, the probability of this happening isn’t high, and even if it does, we can come back and regain control of this mothership. But we must maintain this stance."

Li Wen said gravely, "Understood, we’ll follow your lead."

"I have a suggestion about these Serpent People..."

Pausing for a moment, Gao Yuan made a slicing motion across his neck with his hand and said, "Keep them alive for now, but when the time is ripe, we can’t spare them." freewebnøvel.com

Li Wen said gravely, "As we’re on the subject, I’d like to discuss some matters with you. Xiao Gao... um, both of you are Xiao Gao."

Li Wen turned to the many high-ranking officials who had come up with him and said, "Let’s have a small meeting here. I have some ideas and would like everyone to help me evaluate them. Both of you, Xiao Gao, should speak frankly, as you are the ones who understand the situation best right now."

After speaking, Li Wen pondered for a moment and then said in a low voice, "Victory has come so unexpectedly that we did not have a plan ready for it. But now that victory is within sight, we must start considering some issues, starting with the placement of the Serpent People."

Li Wen looked around at everyone and continued in a low voice, "I know all of you hate the Serpent People; frankly, I do too. But for the sake of our descendants, for the future of humanity, I think we should not exterminate the Serpent People. Let’s not talk about special treatment, but at the very least, we should allow them to play their rightful role. If these Serpent People are willing to help us, our technology can develop quickly. Please remember that what we’re dealing with now is just a small force of Serpent People and that three hundred years later, when the main force of the Serpent People arrives, we need to have the power to resist them!"

Li Wen’s considerations were only reasonable, and there was nothing Gao Yuan could add. Keeping some of the Serpent People to extract their knowledge and conducting research on them was the very reason Gao Yuan had left them alive in the first place.

Gao Yuan said softly, "Don’t be too polite. These Serpent People are still very dangerous. Do not allow them to reproduce, do not let them have any chance to contact the outside world. Consider them as humanoid computers; that’s my only suggestion."

Li Wen nodded and said, "The Serpent People’s civilization is far ahead of ours, and it’s not something we can absorb in just a few years. So, while we must offer them their due treatment, we will seriously study and consider the points you’ve mentioned. Besides, what about the technology of the Celestials?"

Li Wen paused a moment and then continued, "Can we gain more assistance from the Celestials? For instance, the Ark seems to be several levels higher than the Serpent People’s mothership. Is it possible for us to make a quantum leap and master a civilization more advanced than the Serpent People’s before their arrival?"

Gao Yuan gave a bitter smile and shook his head, "I hate to disappoint you, but that’s the problem. Even the Serpent People cannot produce a ship of the Ark’s level, let alone us. Even the Celestials themselves no longer have the ability to build another Ark now. It’s complicated; I’ll explain it to you slowly later. However, the technologies provided by Xinghe previously, and those that will be provided in the future, can definitely complement the technology of the Serpent People. By the time the Serpent People return, maybe... maybe we really can catch up."

Li Wen said softly, "Is the gap too large? Alright, I understand that. Um, I wonder how many survivors we have. Judging by the current situation, we humans must become a single entity!"

A human community led by Shenzhou had inevitably formed, and that was beyond doubt; no further discussion was needed.

Li Wen was a bit hesitant, but he quickly made a request to Gao Yuan, "I have a request. If... I mean if the Ark truly has a complete advantage, could we attempt to capture the fleeing Serpent People’s Mothership instead of destroying it with a hydrogen bomb? Don’t rush to decide. This is only something to consider if we’re certain we can handle it. Right now, we must secure the victory we already have, then expand our gains. Please be extremely cautious."

Gao Yuan looked at the Ram and then said in a low voice, "There’s no guarantee, but we have the idea and will definitely try. We just don’t know enough about Mother Ship No. 3 yet, and we haven’t been in a rush to depart because once the Serpent People’s mothership is destroyed or self-destructs, no one knows what kind of power it will unleash. So it’s safer to let Mother Ship No. 3 move away before we take action."

Li Wen nodded and said softly, "We’re counting on you, it’s all up to you now."

After speaking, Li Wen patted Gao Yuan on the shoulder, then he patted the Ram, smiling, "The two Gaos of Shenzhou, you truly are super heroes. It’s a pity Yang Yi isn’t here; otherwise, I would have had the chance to meet all three of the Three Heroes of Shenzhou at once, haha."
