“Red Lotus, download all the information about the controllable nuclear fusion reactor from the confidential database.”

“Yes, Master. The download is underway. It will be completed in an hour and a half.”

“After the data and designs are downloaded, we’ll optimize them with our materials and then conduct a simulation test.”

Having instructed Red Lotus, Tang Rui returned to his rest.

He had intended to delve deeper into the theory of the electric propulsion engine.

Now, it appeared…

There was no need for further study.

His current limitation wasn’t in theory, but in energy.

With that thought, Tang Rui went back to sleep.

Following his orders, Red Lotus downloaded the information, optimized the design, and initiated the simulation.

Upon returning home, Tang Rui engaged in a half-hour exercise session with Li Shuyao before they went to sleep together.

The night passed quietly.

The next day, Tang Rui planned to visit the company to oversee some affairs.

Leaving the mountain base, he noticed a large trailer parked in the expansive square in front of the company’s office building.

Lin Chao and James stood beside the trailer, greeting him.

“President Tang.”

“Hello, Mr. Tang.”

Tang Rui acknowledged them, then turned to James, “You work quickly.”

“Indeed, Master Tang. In America, money solves many problems. These are the first batch. We acquired them directly from zoos and animal research institutions.

There are more batches on the way from various parts of the world. I assure you, they are all rare specimens.” James stated with confidence.

They had invested significantly in acquiring these rare animal cubs, some even sourced through tips from animal protection organizations.

“Very efficient,” Tang Rui commended.

Transporting the animals overnight was indeed impressive, especially considering his own online purchases took two days for delivery.

Tang Rui observed the animals being unloaded from the trailer, noting, particularly two white deer.

These deer were not artificially colored; they were natural albinos.

Their beauty was mesmerizing, resembling mythical creatures from novels.

“Mr. Tang, I hope you are pleased. Most of these animals are young and require extensive care. I’ve brought the necessary breeding materials and guides.” “Yes, this is indeed a challenge,” Tang Rui acknowledged, realizing his team’s lack of professionals in this area.

The few staff at the giant panda base couldn’t possibly manage such a diverse range of animals.

“Lin, please help me connect with some specialists,” Tang Rui requested.

Lin Chao rolled his eyes internally. If it were up to Tang Rui, the well-being of these animals might be at risk. Fortunately, arrangements were already in place.

“Everything was organized yesterday. The higher-ups have decided to establish a rare animal conservation and breeding center here.”

Following Lin Chao’s report, all necessary preparations had been made.

James’s efforts to secure access to carbon-based semiconductors had come at a steep price. Compared to that, aiding Tang Rui in gathering these protected animals was relatively minor.

Last night, James provided a list of animals scheduled for delivery. Due to customs regulations, not all could be sent immediately.

Many listed animals were critically endangered, some representing the last of their kind.

Yet, the alliance behind James had managed to procure even these rare specimens for Tang Rui.

With these endangered species, it took minimal effort from the higher-ups to mobilize experts and students in animal research to assist.

Tang Rui admired the animals briefly before entering the office building.

He preferred to minimize contact for now, waiting for the professionals to confirm there were no issues before interacting with the animals. He didn’t fear microbes or parasites, but he was cautious about inadvertently harming these rare creatures.

Back in the office, Tang Rui completed signing two documents and instructed Hong Lian to summon Feng Yuanxing.

“Master, Feng Yuanxing boarded a space shuttle with Gao Yang this morning and headed to the moon,” Red Lotus informed immediately.

“They went to the moon? Why?” Tang Rui was puzzled. What business did an aircraft designer have on the moon?

“Feng Yuanxing reported that he wished to personally experience the space shuttle to better enhance its interior design.”

The reason was sound enough.

But, in essence, he simply wanted to visit the moon.

Tang Rui contemplated organizing a company-wide moon landing next year as a corporate benefit.

“Red Lotus, stream the live broadcast from the moon,” Tang Rui requested.

He hadn’t watched the recent broadcasts of lunar landings and was curious about the activities there.

Shua!

The live moon broadcast appeared before him.

“Our independently developed space drilling technology can analyze deep lunar soil. However, the moon’s environment differs from Earth’s…”

He tuned in to find He Yun explaining to the camera.

Nearby, two researchers assembled lunar drilling equipment, assisted by Feng Yuanxing.

Was this drilling necessary?

Tang Rui’s geological exploration equipment was far more advanced. Why resort to such manual methods?

He soon realized the hidden agenda.

“Red Lotus, who else is active on the moon?” he inquired.

“Master, another team is constructing a temporary base on the dark side of the moon.”

“For what purpose?”

“I’m not certain. Should I access the internal network?”

“No need.”

Tang Rui declined. It wasn’t necessary to intrude on his organization’s network.

He picked up a secure phone and called the space command center for information about the temporary base.

He was entitled to such confidential information.

After the call, he understood the base’s purpose – a temporary radar testing site.

The moon’s landing and base construction were no longer challenges.

The focus now shifted to safety and information capture, particularly radar systems.

This initial test aimed to identify and resolve issues, improving the equipment.

The test revealed many challenges unique to the universe’s environment. Radar range in space wasn’t limited to tens or hundreds of kilometers but spanned tens of thousands.

“Red Lotus, what is the range of the neutrino information capture radar?” Tang Rui pondered.

He had used the neutrino radar primarily for extensive monitoring without considering its full range.

“Master, the active precision scanning range of the neutrino radar is 10 million kilometers, with a fuzzy scanning range of 30 million kilometers. The passive precision detection range is 1 million kilometers.”

“Such an extensive range? Has the radar ever been fully activated?”

“Never, Master.”

“Activate the precision scan. Let’s see the results.”

“Scanning…”

After a minute, the neutrino radar satellite completed the scan.

“Master, we’ve detected an asteroid on a collision course with the moon, approximately 8.22 million kilometers from Earth,” Red Lotus reported immediately.

An impending lunar collision – a significant discovery..
