Zhao Yu noticed that Uncle Da had a bit of a temper.
As the first artificial intelligence developed by the base, Zhao Yu wouldn't have dared to use it if not for the system's restrictions and his own absolute loyalty.
After leaving the hot spring, Zhao Yu entered the main base alone. The room was only 30 square meters, without any windows, but filled with various electronic devices. Despite its mundane appearance, it was actually the inner workings of the base car.
Here, he had control over everything in the base: upgrading technology, creating weapons, and more.
He approached a screen displaying a message:
"Danger Warning (Novice Benefit, One-Time Use): There are still 83 days until the alien fleet discovers the base."
Zhao Yu had received this warning ever since he arrived, and it was the reason he had focused on developing military technology for over five years.
"Could the alien fleet be referring to Earth?" he wondered aloud. Ever since he discovered he was on the dark side of the moon, he had been uncertain about the alien fleet that was due to arrive in three months.
"If Earth sends its armed forces to the moon in a spaceship and calls it an alien fleet, then I won't have to worry so much."
With his current military technology, there was no weapon on Earth that could harm the base.
"Even if it's a real alien fleet, it shouldn't be above level 2, right?" Zhao Yu asked himself, glancing at the control panel.
[Base: Level 1]
[Experience: 50,404/100,000]
[Technology Points: 74 points (1 point per hour)]
"Since the system's arrival, it has only given me a little over 50,000 technology points. It's not enough to upgrade the base to level 2, so the alien fleet is probably only at level 1," he said, still unsure whether the alien fleet was a product of the system or a genuine threat in this universe.
Unfortunately, the system remained silent, neither answering his doubts nor providing any clarity.
"Well, we'll have to wait and see in three months."
Three months. It wasn't that long, considering that it had already been five years since Zhao Yu first came to the Moon.

"I'm here at the Longxi Space Base, guys. The security is really tight," said a streamer as he held up his phone and showed the scene in front of him. The entire space base was surrounded by soldiers with real guns and bullets. He couldn't help but feel a bit excited.
"Why would they send so many soldiers for a simple meeting? Maybe the aliens are really coming!" he continued.
There were other streamers around him. Some were just taking pictures of the guns and ammunition from a distance, while there were also some who wanted to get closer.
There were also some streamers who were unwilling to stay outside.
"What's the point of filming from afar? Any small-time streamer could do that. Our Lu Family's Army doesn't shy away from a challenge."
One streamer declared confidently, "I'll show you guys what's really going on inside with a live stream."
The streamer was Lu Liu Fu, a streamer that have millions of followers. He had made a name for himself by doing things differently from other streamers. He saw the anti-alien conference as the perfect opportunity to gain even more followers, and he wasn't going to let a little thing like tight security stop him. He set off to find a way to sneak inside, and as he ventured further into the nearby jungle, he knew that his chance for internet fame was within reach..
After chatting with his fans for a while, Lu Liu Fu decided to wander around the base and find a way to sneak in.
As he walked, he left the main road and entered a forest, clearly an uninhabited area.
Most people would stop at this point, but Lu Liu Fu see it as an opportunity.
"There's a forest here, let's check it out!"
As he walked deeper into the forest, he stumbled upon a spot where the barbed wire fence was broken and there were no guards around.
"Look, we can sneak in here!"
"It's just a barbed wire, we have bolt cutters!" He quickly pulled out a pair of pliers from his backpack, looked around, and started cutting the wire.
Soon, a small human-shaped hole appeared, and Lu Liu Fu quickly crawled through.
"We're in, guys! Just wait and see. I'll broadcast everything live to you all," said Lu Liu Fu, with a smug look on his face.
But his luck didn't last long. A few armed guards suddenly appeared out of nowhere and caught them.
"Wait, don't get the wrong idea. I'm just a streamer," said Lu Liu Fu, trying to explain himself.
"Bang!"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was immediately thrown to the ground, and a two-centimeter-thick rope tied his hands and feet.
Someone took out a black cloth and tape from their pocket and covered his eyes and mouth.
In just one second, Lu Liu Fu was wrapped up like a rice dumpling.
Meanwhile, the followers who were watching the live stream were shocked to see what was happening.
"Damn, the live streamer is done for!"
"These soldiers really mean business!"
Lu Liu Fu was captured, but his phone for live streaming was dropped on the ground, and the screen was still on, steaming at a tilted angle.
As the fans in the live stream room became excited and began to discuss, a soldier walked over and glanced at the camera, seeming to realize something.
Immediately after, in the footage, a combat boot got closer and closer until there was a "POP!" sound.
The next second, the live stream ended.
All the fans were stunned
"Damn, they just smashed Lu Liu Fu equipment..."
"They are taking so pretty seriously!"
..
At the meeting venue, Thomas, Jax, and representatives from the North Bear Kingdom had taken their seats. Alongside official personnel, a group of top astronomers and experts had also been invited to attend.
In front of everyone, Chief Engineer Yang spoke solemnly about the events of the past three days. "Before we start, I want to make one thing clear: the landing site of our country's White Rabbit Nine is real!"
Everyone in the room had already seen the situation outside, with hundreds of soldiers armed and ready to protect the area. Although hundreds of international meetings had been held, this was the first time they had encountered such a situation.
Without needing to be told, they knew that this was a big deal, and they patiently listened to Chief Engineer Yang's story without interruption. "Three days ago, when White Rabbit Nine landed on the moon, the live broadcast was suddenly interrupted just as the astronaut was about to open the door."
"I want to make it clear to everyone that the broadcast was indeed interrupted, and we did not deliberately conceal any information."
"At first, we thought it was an equipment malfunction."
"But after ruling out all possibility of failure, we found that the equipment was intact. The only possibility was that something had happened to the White Rabbit Nine."
"Half an hour later, our far-orbit satellite Chang'e 5 Satellite passed by the landing site," Chief Engineer Yang said, and then paused intentionally.
Thomas, eager to know what had happened next, urged him on. "And then what? What happened?!"
"When Chang'e 5 satellite reached the landing site, we found that the White Rabbit Nine was not there. In the short half hour since it landed on the moon, it had mysteriously disappeared," Chief Engineer Yang said.
"Disappeared?!" There was a stir in the audience as everyone discussed and speculated about the possibility of the White Rabbit Nine disappearing.
It wasn't long before someone raised a question. "Chief Engineer Yang, if it's just a disappearance, how can you conclude that it's related to the aliens?"
"Yeah, if the White Rabbit Nine simply disappeared, How ca it be related to the main topic of this conference?!" another person asked.
Chief Engineer Yang smiled slightly, then pressed a button on the controller in his hand. In the next second, a photo of the satellite Chang'e 3 Satellite appeared on the big screen.
The murmurs gradually subsided as people looked at Chang'e 3 Satellite in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
"Two days after the White Rabbit Nine lost contact, and just one day ago, our near-orbit satellite Chang'e 3 Satellite passed by the landing site," Chief Engineer Yang said.
"With the approval of the higher-ups, White Rabbit Nine fell near the landing site."
Thomas's eyes lit up and he ask, "Did you capture anything on camera?!"
Chief Engineer Yang nodded and pressed a button on the controller once again. The next moment, a clear image appeared on the screen, showing a giant rock floating in mid-air, with what appeared to be a tentacle-like object coming out from it.
The image was extremely clear and provided perfect evidence of the existence of the aliens
Everyone in the room was shocked!
