Chapter 135.1 Success
Editor: Jodi
Z Star Planet had only two spaceports for flights to outer space, hence even with a month’s time, they wouldn’t be able to evacuate the entire planet. Therefore, it was destined that the vast majority of people wouldn’t be able to escape, so after experiencing the initial shock and panic, they fell into complete despair, quietly waiting for death. Some had even prepared tools for su*c*de in advance, ready to end their lives as soon as the zergs appeared, preferring death over being consumed by them. At this moment, the voice of the teenager echoed throughout Z Star Planet, awakening a glimmer of hope in their hearts.
“I’m still trying, so please don’t give up.”
That’s right, even the one who was trying to save them hadn’t given up yet, so how could they, the ones being rescued give up? Immediately, almost all of Z Star Planet’s population focused on one thing—watching the process of Yan Hao creating the chip.
This young man still looked like a student. Could he really repair the Tianhe One warship? Was there enough time? Although the barrage comments on the broadcast had been disabled, some still asked these questions privately, and some even went as far as trying to find information about Yan Hao’s city of birth and the school he had attended to check his credibility.
[Yan Hao has exceptionally high intelligence. He always ranked first in class.]
[While we struggled to learn something for days, he could grasp it with just one look.]
[Yes, I can vouch for him. I was Yan Hao’s elementary school classmate.]
[I was his high school classmate.]
In no time, a plethora of Yan Hao’s former classmates, and even teachers, emerged online.
“Teacher Qiu, didn’t Yan Hao study pharmacy? How can he repair a warship?” In the school where Yan Hao had once studied, a middle-aged man turned to ask his colleague, and the one being asked was Teacher Qiu, the middle-aged man who had been Yan Hao’s high school pharmacy teacher.
Teacher Qiu’s emotions at this moment were extremely complex. He had once criticized Yan Hao in every possible way, even giving him a bad character evaluation despite his intelligence. Yet, it was this teenager with the questioned character who was now working tirelessly to save his life.
Before Yan Hao had said those words, he had sent messages to Yan Fei, his beloved disciple who was also Yan Hao’s younger brother. However his communicator was no longer online. Which meant that Yan Fei was in space because signals were only blocked when someone was in space flight. But just this morning, Yan Fei had sent him a message, saying he would come back to the school in a couple of days to see him.
Escaping the catastrophe of Z Star Planet, Yan Fei had left Z Star Planet at the earliest opportunity. This indicated that the Yan family was among the batch of people who had received the evacuation message, which also meant that Yan Hao, who was currently working hard to repair the warship, had had a chance to leave as well. He could have chosen to survive, but he decided to stay. Regardless of whether Yan Hao could truly repair the battleship, his choice was deeply moving.
“I don’t know either.” Teacher Qiu replied, telling his colleague, “but he’s very intelligent.”
“He used to study pharmacy, right? But didn’t he just say he was Old Pang’s disciple, the creator and maker of the Tianhe One warship? Could it be that it’s a lie?” The teacher who didn’t know Yan Hao asked.
On Starnet, more and more people who knew Yan Hao popped out, making it so that the fact that Yan Hao had once been a pharmacy student couldn’t be concealed. However just as doubts continued to rise about whether his appearance was a ploy by Winston to stabilize public sentiment and allow high-ranking officials to leave, the Federal University, Old Pang, Old Zhong, and the Federation’s Mech Association issued statements one by one.
Federal University: Yan Hao is a sophomore student in our Mech Building Department with outstanding academic performance.
The Federation’s Mech Association: Master Yan Hao is a Level 6 Mech Builder who has undergone strict certification by our association and is also the youngest Level 6 Mech Builder in history.
In contrast to the statements made by the two organizations above, Old Pang and Old Zhong’s were much more simple.
Old Pang: My disciple.
Old Zhong: My disciple.
There weren’t many words, but their assertive dominance was unmistakable.
Yan Hao didn’t know about these online happenings. His full concentration was on making the chip. He couldn’t afford to make any mistakes because he only had one chance. Time was a peculiar thing– when one wished it would slow down, it would race ahead, but when one needed it to move quickly, it would drag on endlessly. Under normal circumstances, eight hours would make anyone feel that time was dragging, however at this moment on Z Star Planet, these eight hours passed by as if they had just blinked their eyes just once and seven and a half hours had already passed. And in the livestream, the teenager who was under the focus of millions had yet to stop.
There was only half an hour left. Would he be able to make it in time?
In space, the zergs were already approaching the atmospheric layer.
The panic that had barely been suppressed surged up once again, and those who had contemplated su*c*de hesitated once more, questioning whether they should proceed with their plans.
Time ticked away, one minute, ten minutes, twenty minutes, twenty-five minutes. There were only five minutes left– the vast majority of Z Star Planet had already closed their eyes in despair, just waiting.
There was only five minutes left and the chip had still not been completed, the end was obvious.
In outer space, on the Sima family’s small warship, Lu Si Ying was already sobbing uncontrollably in her husband’s arms. It was only at this time that she realized she had never truly cared for Yan Hao all these years. Father Yan held his wife, his eyes glistening with tears.
“Mom, Dad, you still have me. I will take good care of you, along with big brother’s part.” Yan Fei reached out from behind to hug his mother, however there wasn’t any sadness in his heart, only secret delight.
