Chapter 267: Arrival of the Lomerians
“Elder Tarot, I think it’s too reckless of us to head over now.
“Since we have decided to go there, there is no need to be all secretive with the detector we sent out earlier.
“We can use it to convey our intentions,” Qina suggested.
Elder Tarot nodded. “This was a lack of consideration on my part. Then, we will follow Dr. Qina’s suggestion.”
The control room issued an order to the detector.
The detector stopped hiding and suddenly accelerated.
Originally, it would take another month or two before it would arrive, but now, it only needed ten seconds.
In the spaceship’s control room, the Lomerians were focused on the image transmitted by the detector.
Soon, the image of the planet became clearer and clearer. The azure blue planet was like a sapphire, embedded in the pitch-black space. It looked beautiful.
On the screen, dozens of satellites that revolved around the planet appeared.
In the eyes of these Lomerians, these satellites were very low-class, as if they were products from centuries ago.
The image continued to draw closer. Mountains, rivers, seas, cities, ruins were destroyed by monsters and humans.
The control room was utterly silent.
They looked utterly disappointed.
As they looked through the image, they knew very well that this planet was not some advanced civilization but a very low-level civilization.
A troubled expression appeared on the Elder Tarot’s face. All his hope had shattered.
He could not think of any other way to get his people out of this predicament.
The same went for the rest.
There was a moment of silence.
Qina glanced at her companions, then said, “Since this planet has not brought us any hope, we can only rely on ourselves now.
“Currently, our spaceship’s energy reserves are at 70%. We can get the remaining energy on this planet. It should be charged up very soon.”
Everyone nodded without any objections.
However, Elder Tarot said, “By doing this, it should be considered an invasion!
“Moreover, it was the humans who ruled this planet.
“The cohesiveness of the Human Race is famous in the universe. Although they are weak, if they resist, the combined strength cannot be underestimated. ”
The Lomerians were a peace-loving race. They hated aggression the most.
Elder Tarot had always upheld this spirit.
Elder Qina knew that too.
She said, “Elder Tarot, we can give them some advanced technology in exchange for the energy we need.”
Elder Tarot thought for a moment. This was a good idea. It did not go against the ideals of the Lomerians.
Thus, they started the spaceship and headed towards the planet.
At the same time, Qin Chuan was infusing True Qi into the Spirit Tree.
Suddenly—
Ring! Ring! Ring!
The phone rang.
Qin Chuan took out his phone, glanced at the caller ID, and picked up the call.
“Guan Zexiao, why are you looking for me?”
“Sect Master, the satellite department just discovered an abnormal signal fluctuation. They suspect that it might be from an extraterrestrial civilization.”
“Extraterrestrial civilization?” Qin Chuan asked curiously.
“You mean there could be an alien invasion?”
“Yes!”
Qin Chuan’s face sank at once.
As far as he knew, the reason why this world’s technology could develop so quickly was because an extraterrestrial spaceship had once landed here.
However, the spaceship was severely damaged, and the extraterrestrial lifeform inside had long died. Fortunately, there was still some advanced equipment that was well preserved.
Through these devices, they were able to develop some advanced technology and develop it to its current state.
Now that Guan Zexiao said that extraterrestrial creatures were invading, Qin Chuan was immediately interested.
He was very curious about what the so-called aliens looked like and whether they were as weird-looking as those in science fiction movies.
Hence, he asked Guan Zexiao, “When was the signal discovered?”
Guan Zexiao replied, “Just a minute ago. After I was informed, I immediately contacted you.”
“Mm, I’ll go take a look now.”
Qin Chuan hung up the call and looked up at the sky before disappearing.
He could fly to outer space now, but his cultivation level hadn’t reached the level to travel the universe.
Qin Chuan arrived outside the atmospheric layer in the blink of an eye, looking down at the beautiful blue planet below. However, he had no time to admire it.
Qin Chuan released his divine consciousness.
Currently, his divine consciousness could cover a quarter of this planet.
Very quickly, a shuttle-shaped object entered Qin Chuan’s vision.
Qin Chuan did not know much about technology, but based on the internal structure of the shuttle, any normal person would be able to spot the problem.
This technology obviously did not belong to this world.
Qin Chuan guessed that it was probably a detector.
If it was really an extraterrestrial invasion, it would definitely be the same as fighting a war. They would have to know the other party’s situation in advance.
Since this detector is here, the extraterrestrials should be arriving soon. Qin Chuan thought to himself.
As he looked into the dark depths of space, Qin Chuan was filled with anticipation.
On the other side, the Lomerians controlled the spaceship and flew quickly through the wormhole.
They docked the spaceship one light-year away from the planet.
Elder Tarot brought along some elders and young warriors as they flew towards the planet Qin Chuan was on using a mini aircraft.
After three to four minutes of flying, they successfully arrived at the target planet.
“Young warriors of Lome, our sudden arrival might trigger some extreme behavior from the creatures on this planet.
“But we’re only here to exchange for energy. We should not cross them.
“Thus, you are not allowed to harm them without my orders.”
Elder Tarot warned the accompanying warriors.
“Understood!” the warriors replied.
The aircraft slowly moved closer. Elder Tarot was highly focused as he carefully observed his surroundings through the transparent glass cabin.
Soon, their spaceship passed through the space debris and arrived at the outer atmosphere.
Everything seemed exceptionally quiet here.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared outside the cabin where Elder Tarot was in.
“Hu… Human!!!”
Elder Tarot was shocked.
He hurriedly called for his entourage to stop flying.
Elder Tarot looked at the person outside the cabin in shock.
They were in the outer atmosphere, and the temperature was over a thousand degrees.
Most creatures cannot survive while being exposed to such high temperatures.
However, the person outside was defying gravity and floating in the air. Furthermore, he did not have any protective gear on his body but looked fine.
Elder Tarot was shocked.
He was very sure that this planet was only a low-level civilization. The humans living here couldn’t possibly be so powerful.
But the person in front of him had changed his understanding.
The only explanation was that he was not an ordinary person.
If he’s not an ordinary person, then is he a Cul…
When he thought of that possibility, Elder Tarot was excited, nervous, and agitated. His eyes shone brightly.
The person outside the cabin was none other than Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan carefully sized up Elder Tarot. He supported his chin with his hand and muttered as he nodded. “So this is what aliens look like. They really are much uglier than humans.”
Elder Tarot was dressed in specially wrapped clothes that could be used as an aviation suit or a combat suit.
It was impossible to see their true appearance from the outside.
However, under the observation of Qin Chuan’s divine consciousness, he was able to see everything clearly.
The Lomerians were all short. Their arms were longer than their legs, and their heads were similar to those of turtles.
Their skin color was very similar to that of eggplants. Their eyes were large, and their noses small. Their mouths were very small, just like tadpoles. They had no eyebrows, and their two ears looked like little water pipes sticking out.
Qin Chuan patted the window of the cabin, waved his hand, and greeted them.
“Hello!”
