Chapter 1247: Express Delivery From s.p.a.ce


The wave of applause was like a rainstorm, resonating throughout the venue.


Even people outside of the great hall could feel the pa.s.sion and excitement from the applause through the walls.


Lu Zhou didn’t actually care about things like honor.


If he had the opportunity to gain more honor and recognition for himself and for his country, he certainly would not refuse. However, even if he couldn’t, he wouldn’t feel unpleasant.


Yet when he was standing on the podium, he couldn’t help but feel moved in his heart.


In the face of the mysteries of the universe and the glory of the human mind, reputation and honor were meaningless.


However, the heavy medal across his chest that symbolized expectations and responsibility was certainly real…



The Jin Ling University cafeteria.


The cafeteria was filled with people even though it was still early morning.


Freshman, final-year graduate students, students preparing for the graduate entrance exam, and students preparing for their first a.s.signment… They all got up abnormally early on this day.


There was a long line in front of the service window selling noodles. The TV in the corner next to it was turned on to the news program.


“Did you hear the news?”


“What news?”


“Yesterday, Academician Lu from our school received the National Medal of Honor!”


“Really? The medal that’s only given to a select few in the country?”


“Yeah, that one!”


“Jesus, how many national awards have G.o.d Lu received?”


“I don’t know, I just want to know who also won a medal.”


“No one else won. The scientific community Medal of Honor was awarded to him as well!”


Actors and production crew members were sitting nearby.


The earlier they finish filming, the earlier they could finish work. Once the filming began, there was no such thing as a holiday. They looked at the long lines of students in front of the foodservice windows. An actress wearing a baseball hat spoke.


“The Jin Ling University students are so diligent, waking up so early on a holiday.”


“Yeah yeah, more hardworking than when I was a student.”


Sitting next to the two actresses was Han Mengqi, who was having a bowl of white porridge. She was about to follow them to the library for filming. Even though she was not friends with the two actresses, she still raised her head and joined in on the conversation.


“Normally, there aren’t this many people. Today is special.”


One of the actresses tilted her head and curiously asked, “Special?”


Han Mengqi nodded and spoke.


‘”Yeah, the military parade is on CTV at 7 o’clock today.”


Even though they could watch it on their phones in their bedrooms, it obviously didn’t feel as exciting as watching it in the cafeteria with everyone. And since they were already awake, they might as well eat some breakfast.


Without them knowing it, it was already seven o’clock.


This grand occasion kicked off with military music in the background.


The soldiers lined up on the square stepped forward with powerful steps. After that, there were various types of heavy military equipment, tanks, and fighter jets. The boys in the cafeteria were full of adrenaline.


Even though Han Mengqi wasn’t very interested in these things, because of the music and atmosphere, she subconsciously began to hum along to the music.


Speaking of which, Academician Lu should be there.


I think Sister is there too.


I wonder where they’re sitting…


Han Mengqi had completely ignored the parade and was thinking about some strange thoughts. However, the image on the TV suddenly changed.


A group of soldiers that looked completely different walked into the camera shot.


They were wearing armed mechanical exoskeletons, with futuristic bullet-free rifles. Their digital eyepieces were blocking their eyes… They walked forward neatly and uniformly. There was a sense of majesty and solemnity in the air.


Behind every soldier was a four-rotor multi-purpose drone. The bullet-free rifles in the hands of the soldiers gave a chilling feeling.


They were infantry, but they looked more powerful than armored forces. The sound of the loud footsteps as they marched forward neatly felt like they were a moving steel wall.


What is that?


When Han Mengqi saw the image on the TV, she felt her forehead getting warm.


She was getting excited.


Although she was completely uninterested in weapons and equipment, for some reason, these soldiers seem to poke her curiosity.


Suddenly, she realized where this excitement came from.


Isn’t the black exoskeleton armor made from the “high-strength carbon nanocomposite” project I was a part of last year?


It is!


It has to be!


She was witnessing the application of a scientific research project she had partic.i.p.ated in. She felt like she had just won the lottery, and there was an indescribable feeling of excitement and comfort in her heart.


It felt…


So cool!



At the military parade.


A little girl who was around seven or eight years old climbed onto the knees of a gray-haired old man. She pointed her little hand excitedly at the soldiers not far away and spoke in a high-pitched voice.


“Grandpa, Grandpa, look at the robots!”


Academician Pan Changhong patted his granddaughter’s hand to tell her to return to her seat. He smiled and said to her, “What robots! That is our Airborne Brigade team!”


The granddaughter tilted her head and asked, “What is that?”


Academician Pan Changhong smiled and had a trace of fascination in his eyes.


“It’s a group of people that guards us from the skies.”


The debut of the Airborne Brigade shocked everyone, both live at the scene and the audiences at home.


The second the steel soldiers appeared on the CTV broadcast, Weibo and other internet websites instantly exploded with discussions and comments.


“This is so cool!”


“It’s like Ironman!”


“What’s the point of this kind of armor? We’re in the 21st century now! It’s not flexible at all. Do they expect the armor to save them from artillery weapons? Even a high school student knows that this is stupid!”


“How about you try the armor yourself! And this is called a mechanical exoskeleton! It’s not just body armor!”


“These are the soldiers that are delivered from s.p.a.ce! (smile)”


People were mesmerized by the cool soldiers and the expensive digital equipment. The dazzling weapons were captivating. Chinese netizens were hooked.


On the other hand, the live stream was also broadcast on CTV’s foreign outlets. Foreigners were shocked by this scene.


Discussions exploded in the Youtube comments section, and there were tens of thousands of comments in less than an hour.


Some were overseas Chinese expats who were proud of the strength of their motherland. There were also white-washed Asians that were going crazy, as well as foreigners shocked by the never-seen-before equipment.


“What does the Chinese plan on doing? Fight aliens?”


“Where is our aeros.p.a.ce force?”


“We have air and s.p.a.ce forces, but we don’t have an aeros.p.a.ce force…”


“Apparently, they can be deployed anywhere on the globe within an hour.”


“That’s so scary! If I talk trash about them, are they going to land in my backyard?”


“Probably not, they’re more likely to land in Area 51 or Guantanamo Bay…”
