Scholar’s Advanced Technological System Chapter 1367 - Treasure Hunting In Hell

Chapter 1367: Treasure Hunting In h.e.l.l

While Captain Liang Youcheng compiled and uploaded the mission log of the day into Xu Fu, Lu Zhou, who was on Earth tens of millions of kilometers away, also received a reminder that the mission was completed.

[Congratulations, “Deep Into h.e.l.l” legendary mission is completed!]

[Mission description: The end of reincarnation, the beginning of everything.]

[Reward: 2.8 million experience points, (500,000×5+300,000 base value), 10,000 general points, legendary mission card.]

As usual, the system left a strange message in the mission description. However, this time, Lu Zhou had no idea what it wanted to convey.

It didn’t seem to be sarcastic or insulting.

But if it was advice, it seemed too vague.

Not to mention, the mission t.i.tle exuded an ominous atmosphere…

Even though he received the rewards, he felt like everything was not over yet.

After thinking about it for a long time, Lu Zhou temporarily put this aside. He looked at the experience points given to him.

A total of 2.8 million experience points, enough for him to upgrade the rest of biochemistry, energy, and information science to level 8.

Of course, he had another option, which was to spend all of the experience points on engineering (0/3 million), or materials (63,000/3 million). Although the 2.8 million experience was not enough to level up, it would bring him to the cusp of leveling up.

Then, he would only need to do a mission in the material science or engineering area to easily reach level 9.

In terms of efficiency, both strategies were feasible.

However, Lu Zhou thought of the legendary mission card. After hesitating for a while, he decided on being a jack of all trades as opposed to being a master of none.

After all, the rewards for the next mission wouldn’t be low.

Being able to raise his average level a bit higher would be more helpful for him in different situations.

He allocated 500,000 experience points into biochemistry, 1.2 million to energy science, and 1.1 million to information science.

After this, his updated characteristic panel appeared in front of him.

[

A. Mathematics: Level 10

B. Physics: Level 10

C. Biochemistry: Level 8 (10,000/3 million)

D. Engineering: Level 8 (0/3 million)

E. Material Science: Level 8 (63,000/3 million)

F. Energy Science: Level 8 (0/3 million)

G. Information science: level 8 (0/3 million)

General points: 48,335

]

“Except for the maxed-out mathematics and physics, the rest of the fields have all reached level 8.” Lu Zhou looked at the data on his characteristic panel and nodded with satisfaction. He said, “The next step is to see which field reaches level 9 first.”

When he looked at the list of subject levels, he felt like he was back in school again.

When he thought of those years after he graduated from college, he couldn’t help but feel nostalgic.

“When I reach level 10 in all areas… it probably means that I have graduated.”

He shook his head and drove this strange thought out of his mind. He reached out his index finger to select the golden mission card in his inventory.

A string of light particles spread along the card to his index finger. A brand new mission panel appeared in front of him immediately.

However, when Lu Zhou saw the mission panel, he was stunned.

[Mission: Treasure Hunting in h.e.l.l]

[Description: It is my honor to bring this to you, whether to fulfill your mission is your decision.]

[Requirements: Witness and discover the gift from the Void, let it see light again.]

[Rewards: ???]

Lu Zhou: “…?”

So, not only is the lucky draw based on luck, but I don’t even know the rewards and requirements?

…

On the second weekend of April, Xu Fu arrived in Mars...o...b..t.

The tranquility of the morning was broken by this sudden news.

A video around ten minutes in length was posted to the official website of the Mars landing plan.

The footage came from tens of millions of kilometers away.

First was through the perspective of Xu Fu, then the colony capsule separating from the entire colonial s.h.i.+p was captured on tape. Then the moment the colony capsule was ignited and approached the edge of the Mars atmosphere was also shown on screen. Finally, the audience observed the colony capsule diving toward Mars from the first-person perspective.

In terms of creativity, the editing of the entire video was simple and straightforward, with almost no unique shooting techniques and no special effects. However, when the silver-white ring landed in a sea of sand from a height of 100 kilometers, people felt a shock coming from the bottom of their hearts!

Xu Fu had successfully entered orbit!

The colony capsule successfully landed!

Five astronauts had set foot on Mars!

When people watched the exciting footage of the entire landing process in front of their computers and mobile phones, they couldn’t help but let out excited exclaims.

“F*ck! An iron doughnut falling from the sky; it’s like a science fiction movie!”

“Do you know how heavy the thing is? It’s hundreds of tons, okay! Except for us, no country on Earth can send such a large ma.s.s from Earth to Mars!”

“This is insane!”

“I haven’t even been to the Moon, and our astronauts have already step foot on Mars…”

“Academician Lu is awesome!”

The video on the official website of the Mars landing plan was approved for republication, appearing on major video websites.

Later on, more and more netizens partic.i.p.ated in editing the video. They creatively added background music to the video, as well as inserting other effects such as slow-motion and camera zooms.

Through various channels, the videos spread along the Internet.

At first, people out of the loop thought it was a trailer for a sci-fi blockbuster, but later on, they discovered that this video was not for a movie.

After realizing this, many people’s hearts were full of complex emotions.

Especially North American citizens.

Even though for human civilization this was indeed a time to celebrate, but for some reason, watching the Chinese land their ring on the surface of Mars didn’t excite them at all…

They were even frustrated.

The Wall Street Journal a.n.a.lyzed the possible impacts of the Mars landing plan from an economic perspective. The New York Times published the news in their technology panel. Only the Was.h.i.+ngton Post reported the incident on their front page.

The entire North American media seemed to have made an agreement to lose interest in Mars, trying to brush over this news in a low-key manner.

This time, no one mentioned anything about the s.p.a.ce race.

Everything was clear in their hearts.

The winner of this compet.i.tion had already been determined…

…

East Coast of North America.

Boston international airport.

Han Mengqi dragged her suitcase through customs. She looked at the limo parked outside the airport with a dazed expression. There was even a concierge standing next to the convoy.

She was wondering which important person was sitting on the same flight as herself when a middle-aged man in a suit standing by the car suddenly walked toward her with a smile.

“h.e.l.lo, are you Ms. Han Mengqi?”

Han Mengqi looked at the person in front of her blankly and spoke.

“Yeah… Is there a problem?”

“I am the director of the foreign guest reception office at the White House. This is my business card.”

White House?

Foreign guest reception office?

Han Mengqi: “???”

What the h.e.l.l?!

“Do you have the wrong person?” Han Mengqi said. She was baffled as she looked at the business card. She said, “I just came to attend the April International Union of Materials Research Societies conference…”

“Nope, we’re certain you’re the right person. That is exactly where we are going.” The man smiled politely and said, “I believe you must have a lot of questions. I will answer them on the way to the hotel.”
