My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 379: Cutting off the fuel supply at the root, gaining the approval of all Nuwa models!
Chu Zhu said slowly and deliberately, "Old Huo, I don't need your help! Go attack any of your colleagues!"

"...And what about in the underground temple before?" Huo Qiming's voice carried a hint of sarcasm.

“I didn’t order you to do this! The reason you took action… wasn’t it also to minimize the casualties of the Commandery?” Chu Zhu turned to look at Huo Qiming with a smile on her face.

Huo Qiming remained silent.

"...So!" Hu Kaikang's eyes darted around a few times before he said softly, "What should we do next? To be honest, even with orders from the Pope... if you just want to drag me to my death... I won't agree!"

"The most I can guarantee is that I'll leave you with a whole corpse... But when the time comes, young master, don't blame me for killing you and using your body as a pledge of loyalty!"

Chu Zhu didn't care at all: "Do as you please! But... there's really no point in doing that..."

Hu Kaikang's attitude also differs from the previous timeline—

After all, in the previous timeline, he had seen that Chu Zhu not only gained Nuwa's approval, but had also already destroyed an entire military camp—

That at least proves that Chu Zhu has a chance to succeed in his quest for the world, no matter how small that chance may be... that makes all the difference!
At that time, Hu Kaikang could at least convince himself that this was the Pope's plan... it might be an investment—plus the life-saving grace, so he accepted it!
Currently, with only Nuwa's approval, in Hu Kaikang's eyes, Chu Zhu's actions are nothing more than suicide. Even with the Pope's blessing of saving his life... the situation is hopeless, and he indicates he will withdraw...

In Hu Kaikang's eyes now, the only people who know the inside story are the people in the underground base—killing them all would naturally keep it a secret!

Hu Kaikang was not the kind of person who was blinded by justice; he was a bishop known for his iron-fisted approach! He had initially adopted a strategy of repaying blood debts with blood, and had almost brutally resolved the Tianjing smog incident... He was even transferred to Jinghai City, which was considered a key strategic location.

Chu Zhu didn't speak; he simply looked up at the sky in silence.

"?" Huo Qiming's eyes showed confusion, not understanding what they were waiting for. Hu Kaikang suddenly sensed something, his expression changing drastically. He subconsciously looked up at the sky, almost exclaiming, "...How is this possible?"

"???" Huo Qiming looked up as well, then his expression froze for a moment. He first saw several small black dots, then he saw these black dots rapidly expand and grow. In the end, they cast large shadows across the sky!
Space carrier!

Although Huo Qiming didn't hear the surrounding discussions, he knew it was because the local residents had been driven away by Eunuch Huang and his men. Given the size of these creatures... they could definitely be seen by people within a radius of tens of kilometers...

The public opinion that might be stirred up by this kind of thing...

Huo Qiming felt his head start to hurt.

The space carrier is enormous, stretching over a kilometer in length, completely out of the league of drone carriers. While the drone carriers, only three or four hundred meters long, are much larger than in previous timelines, they still appear like children next to the space carrier.

Hanging high in the sky, they truly resembled a sky island! Thankfully, they were still some distance from the ground… otherwise…

Several unmanned shuttles sped out of the space carrier, even making airburst sounds... They decelerated and accelerated, then decelerated again, appearing in front of Chu Zhu in one go—demonstrating the incredible technological sophistication of these unmanned shuttles!
The unmanned shuttle is about five meters long. When it came out of the space carrier in the air, it was no different from a mosquito. But now, it appeared in front of the three people. Compared with its previous mosquito-like size, it made people speechless and shocked.

“Let’s go up!” Chu Zhu stepped forward without hesitation.

Having witnessed the tip of the iceberg of power held by Chu Zhu, Hu Kaikang's attitude changed drastically, and he quickly followed... Huo Qiming's cheeks twitched, he gritted his teeth, and ultimately chose to follow suit...

The interior of the space carrier has a metallic sheen, and its overall layout is quite similar to that of the Nuwa base.

Chu Zhu entered the central control room, and beams of light appeared—at the same time, the surrounding ground became transparent, revealing the blue sky and white clouds.

They seemed to be floating in the sky at that moment!
This even scared Hu Kaikang so much that he sprouted two angel wings and flew away... It wasn't until he saw Chu Zhu standing calmly in place, and Huo Qiming, although sweating profusely, not getting up, that he realized what was happening and, with a touch of embarrassment, landed back down.

Chu Zhu examined the light screen, reached out her hand, and discovered... she could slide her hand across the light screen to issue commands... and considering the surrounding scenery... well, in this respect, it was extremely similar to the abilities that Nuwa had demonstrated at the Nuwa Base.

"You're next!" Huo Qiming opened his mouth.

"Nuwa No. 17! Hive!" Chu Zhu ignored Huo Qiming and placed the little mushroom head on the control panel: "I know you two can't interface for data... but you can use the most primitive language to communicate and project light screens to exchange data..."

"I issue the following order: Nuwa No. 17, enter all the addresses of the Nuwa bases that you previously told me into the Hive!"

"Honeycomb, systematically check all the cities in the Yangtze River Industrial Zone with Nuwa bases one by one... I need to register my permissions for each of these hosts. Then head south, and then north!"

Chu Zhu's gaze was cold and piercing. The last time he suffered a loss, it was because Yang Di mobilized his forces—

Since that's the case, then this time, we'll hollow out all of Nuwa's bases and see what you can do then!
"Yes!"

"Oh, right." Chu Zhu remembered something and added, "To ensure safety... well, the space carrier is too big! This time we'll ascend to high altitude... no, you should be able to go to outer space, right?"

After receiving a definite answer, Chu Zhu's face lit up with joy: "That makes things much easier! Then I'll trouble you to place yourself in outer space... and begin. By the way, can your shuttles take people from outer space to Earth, landing them in a specific city or region?" "Yes!"

"Ok, deal."

Chu Zhu smiled. Originally, he was worried that if they were spotted high in the sky and no one could see them, someone might send an expert to shoot them down.

But flying into outer space... that's a completely different concept!
Of course, if there really were experts who could fly into outer space, Chu Zhu would accept it; at worst, he'd learn from this mistake and be more careful next time.

Even if it can fly, the concealment effect of outer space is far greater than simply flying in the sky!
It's impossible to detect the existence of a space carrier during the day, standing on the ground, purely by sight.

Nuwa-17 projected a map showing the specific coordinates of Nuwa bases in various locations.

then……

The space carrier rapidly took off, and the projected virtual reality made the group feel as if they were standing in the void, soaring rapidly alongside the space carrier.

Huo Qiming held his breath, while Hu Kaikang's eyes glazed over. They watched in disbelief...

The space carrier has taken off into the cosmos!

The vast universe, deep and boundless...

The azure planet, beneath our feet, evokes a sense of awe and grandeur that defies description.

A brief moment of dead silence.

"...This, this kind of thing!" Huo Qiming's teeth were chattering.

"This is impossible!" Hu Kaikang clenched his fists, his face showing shock that his worldview had been shaken: "How could a mere ancient artifact simply rely on flying... to..."

It's not that he doesn't know about the universe, but the problem is... the only feasible way he knows to get to the universe is to climb the Ladder to Heaven!

This kind of direct flight...

Even if it's an ancient relic... no, can ancient relics really do such a thing?

Hu Kaikang began to question the meaning of life. He looked around, his expression changing to one of deep reverence and awe... In his eyes, this was practically a divine artifact!
Could this thing beneath his feet actually be something God created?! Wait, Mr. Hu finally realized… it's the goddess Nuwa! After all, with the goddess Nuwa by his side… it could also be that other goddess, whose identity is uncertain…

Countless possibilities flashed through Hu Kaikang's mind... his thoughts were in complete chaos.

Chu Zhu ignored their reactions and listened attentively to Hive's detailed explanation: "The two drone carriers have already reached their maximum flight altitude! They do not have the capability to travel to space."

"Next, we plan to fly over the Dajiang Industrial Belt in unmanned shuttles, checking off all the cities... This will take 37 minutes! However, if we need to stop in every city... even just the cities with Nuwa bases! Each base will take half an hour... Considering the time needed for stopping and going... completing the entire journey will take at least five hours! If it's the whole country, it's absolutely impossible to finish in one day..."

"Just do as I say!" Chu Zhu replied without hesitation. The data being recorded at this moment was because Chu Zhu needed some time to find Nuwa's base... but in reality, after resetting a few times, Chu Zhu could basically take shortcuts and speedrun through the process, minimizing the time required.

Of course, if even under such extreme compression, time is still insufficient, Chu Zhu has another solution: simply acquire all the permissions for the Nuwa base at the key nodes.

For Nuwa bases in some more remote areas that are not related to the overall situation, such as Fujian and Guangdong, the process can be delayed a little longer.

The Hive's voice was as always: "Yes! Now... please proceed to the No. 7 unmanned shuttle as instructed... This is a single-person model drone! Its speed is the fastest among all current models... and its integrity is as high as 97%, making it extremely safe!"

"...You two, get along well! If anything happens, just chat with these two...they'll contact me," Chu Zhu said softly.

“…Okay, okay!” Hu Kai nodded hastily, but inwardly he was cursing, “Are you sure these two things are human? They’re gods… Your attitude is really…” But his attitude became even more respectful.

After watching Chu Zhu leave, Huo Qiming paced back and forth, looking worried.

Hu Kaikang, on the other hand, chose to sit cross-legged and stare blankly at his surroundings. Although he had been to the starry sky several times, this was the first time he had simply looked at the scenery.

He soon saw a shuttle leave the space carrier and speed towards Earth...
