Chapter 120 The Fleet Returns, The Approaching Enemy
Given the typical tropes of certain novels, Ji Chen's last trip home will undoubtedly be fraught with twists and turns.
However, this is a male-oriented story, and Ji Chen, with the support of the Star Group, has the confidence to rebel after returning to the Ji family.
As Ji Chen pushed open the door, Ji's parents and Ji Xiaotian, who were having dinner, all turned to look at Ji Chen after hearing the noise.
"Brother, you're back! We're having dinner right now, come and eat!"
"
"No, I've already eaten, I'll go back to my room now."
Listening to Ji Xiaotian's affected tone, it might have been better if it were a girl.
However, Ji Xiaotian was a man, and Ji Chen also felt nauseous at this moment, and the feeling of hunger that had been there before disappeared instantly.
"You unfilial son, stop right there! You're never home, and the moment you get home you just disappear into your room. Do you even respect me as your father?"
"Don't worry, I still respect you. This is just a happy family gathering of the three of you. It's not appropriate for me, an outsider, to interfere, so I'll head back now."
"you!"
Before his father could speak, Ji Chen strode to his room, collected all the certificates and documents, opened his suitcase, packed all his belongings inside, and then dragged the suitcase out.
"Xiao Chen, where are you going with your suitcase?"
At this moment, seeing Ji Chen's actions, Ji's mother seemed to have a bad feeling and asked her question with a trembling voice.
"Excuse me, I've been accepted to Xingchen University and I'm going to start studying there early, so I won't be in your way."
Oh, by the way, I only found out today that my household registration has never been transferred. This is my accommodation fee for the past three years. Now, we're even. From now on, we'll go our separate ways and never see each other again. Goodbye.
With that, Ji Chen pushed open the door and walked out.
Upon hearing Ji Chen's words, Ji's parents and Ji Xiaotian were greatly surprised and immediately chased after him. They then saw Ji Chen arrive in front of three cars bearing the logo of Xingchen Group.
With the help of the staff, the suitcase was placed in the back of the car, and then Ji Chen got in, and the convoy left directly.
"Didn't my brother's grades always go badly? How did he get accepted into Star University?"
Ji Xiaotian's muttering brought his parents back to their senses, and they suddenly realized that this must be Ji Chen's trick.
"Forget it, just stop giving him the card. Let's see what he does when he's out of money."
Father Ji instructed Mother Ji.
"I didn't give him the card, didn't you give him the card?"
"You didn't give him a card? I didn't either. So how did he manage his expenses for the past few years?"
At this moment, both of them were somewhat shocked, because they suddenly realized that the other party had never given Ji Chen a supplementary card, which meant that Ji Chen had no money on him, and therefore it was impossible for him to hire someone to act.
"By the way, check the official website of Star University; the list of admitted students is there."
"Yes, yes, let's go see it now."
Once the two entered the official website, they quickly found Ji Chen's name.
Because there was a photo after the name, the two recognized him at a glance; it was Ji Chen.
At this moment, the two realized that they had overlooked something. After thinking about it, they began to have someone investigate Ji Chen's situation over the years.
By the time the investigation results came out, Ji Chen had already traveled to Mars in a spaceship.
Furthermore, due to Ji Xiaotian's actions, even though he achieved a grade of B+, his admission was revoked.
However, for Ji Chen, all of these things are a thing of the past.
The 3S rating in the field of biology caught Jiang Feng's attention after he enrolled. After various evaluations, Jiang Feng finally felt that there was someone to carry on the family legacy.
He knew that with proper guidance, Ji Chen's future achievements would definitely surpass his own.
Meanwhile, after returning to the main world, Fang Heng was also waiting for the fleet to return.
Previously, the warships built in the Starfleet world were basically equipped with secondary teleportation devices, so these warships will not remain there.
Fortunately, a new batch of warships has been produced, and after some of the laid-off personnel were reassigned to new fleets, these fleets will soon return to the main world.
Fang Heng arrived at Firestar Harbor and entered the command center.
"How's it going? Has the fleet returned?"
"Commander, the fleet has just arrived in the main world and established contact. Guidance beacons are being set up. It will take them another 7 days to get here."
"Okay, that's good. Are the Star Harbor berths and manufacturing and maintenance center ready?"
"It's ready and ready to use at any time."
"Okay, we also need to make arrangements for personnel. These warships are not fully staffed, so we need to fill them with new personnel as soon as possible. It will also take time for them to get used to each other."
"Yes, Commander."
After giving his instructions, Ethan sent him the latest message. After reading it, Fang Heng also left.
Seven days later, a streak of light flashed by, and the next moment, a massive fleet appeared not far from Mars.
The sudden appearance of the massive fleet shocked everyone on the Mars space station.
"Please don't panic, everyone. The first fleet of the Star Group has arrived here. They will be docking at Firestar Port for repairs."
As instructed by Chairman Fang Heng, there will be three days of open house events for the starships, allowing everyone to tour them. Reservation details have been posted on the official website, and you can apply now.
Upon hearing the news over the radio, everyone was initially shocked, but then a joyful smile appeared on their faces.
This was the first time they had ever been able to visit a starship up close, and they couldn't miss such an opportunity.
Meanwhile, the content updated on Xingchen Group's official website was also seen on Lanxing.
Everyone was stunned when they saw the massive hull of the planetary battleship.
Because they discovered that the Star Group was developing far too fast.
A little over a year ago, the fleet only had interstellar frigates and destroyers, but now it has expanded to a size with three battleships.
This rate of development is terrifying.
The five philanthropists also fell silent after seeing the news.
Because their space probes have already observed a large fleet on the other side of Mars.
So they knew this wasn't a lie.
Because of the Lizardmen incident, the US was already used to it, so when Fang Heng's fleet appeared, they were only slightly shocked before going about their business.
However, the University of Tokyo felt a sense of helplessness.
I'm already trying my best to catch up, but the other party's development is not slow at all. Sometimes I even wonder if Fang Heng is cheating.
They were also very curious about where the battleships and cruisers in these fleets were built.
Judging from the fleet's arrival at Mars Starport, it was clearly built in another star system, which made Dongda extremely envious.
Fang Heng was unaware of these circumstances, as he was currently in a meeting—a pre-battle planning meeting.
Seven days ago, after receiving a message from Ethan at the command center in Starport, Fang Heng rushed back to check the details.
Ethan's message was simple: he had located the advance fleet of the Sky Council.
Upon learning this news, Fang Heng quickly arrived at the observation station and saw the details of this advance fleet.
The advance fleet of the Sky Council was quite large, consisting of 10 cruisers and 5 destroyers.
0 ships, but hundreds of frigates.
This fleet is also very close to the Chiwuheng star system, only 500 light-years away.
Excluding the Star Group, 500 light-years is an extremely long distance for any nation on Earth.
However, for the Celestial Conference, 500 light-years is only 2.5 years away, so it would only take two and a half years to reach this place.
The reason we were able to discover the enemy's advance fleet this time was because they had abandoned warp drive and were probably establishing a resource extraction station in the nearby Heng system, which is why they were detected by the exploration ship.
Being able to detect the enemy's tracks in advance was very good news for Fang Heng.
Other civilizations don't have teleportation devices as an external aid in their technological development, so their warships' performance certainly won't improve in just a few years.
On our side, not to mention destroyers and frigates, the defense and firepower of cruisers and battleships alone are enough to wipe out the enemy.
However, even a lion uses its full strength to hunt a rabbit, and two and a half years is enough time for it to upgrade and modify its destroyers and frigates.
Therefore, this meeting is to discuss this matter.
Currently, we have a considerable number of destroyers and frigates, and refitting them would be a very large undertaking.
Therefore, how to modify it so that it can be combat-ready in two and a half years is something that needs to be carefully planned.
There is also good news: the production lines for destroyers and frigates have been upgraded and modified, so if production continues, the ships will be optimized.
Besides this issue, another issue is the problem of manpower.
In the main world, Fang Heng only has one power: the Star Group.
Even if they occupy the continent of Black Continent and launch a population plan, it will not be effective in the short term.
Therefore, the main world has always been short-handed.
The Starfleet world has just stabilized, and there are only enough people for their own use. The populations of the Terminator and Biohazard worlds are still in the recovery phase, so they can't offer much help.
Ultimately, only the Elysium world can support the main world.
However, despite the large population, the quality of the population is relatively poor, so training is still needed.
Soon, the meeting organizers came up with a plan for population training. Everyone realized that if they wanted to ensure combat effectiveness, this was the only way. They had no choice but to agree to the plan.
The meeting ended quickly, and after a new document was issued, Xingchen Group began to get busy.
