Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System-Chapter 671 - 627: Insufficient Incentives

There is no denying that human curiosity is always so powerful, regardless of race or color.

When Lin Yi slowed down the spaceship, all those spy satellites followed suit, trailing behind the footsteps of this flying saucer, advancing one by one alongside him.

Jinghai, the lunar mare located within the impact basin of Sea of Tranquility on the moon, covers an area of approximately 420,000 square kilometers, with an average depth below the lunar surface of 1,700 meters.

And it is here where Apollo 11 landed all those years ago.

It is rumored that the footprint left here marked one giant leap for mankind.

It must be said that Lin Yi’s chosen base is not very far from the location of this Sea of Tranquility. His spacecraft would take about an hour to reach it.

This is with the spacecraft deliberately slowing down.

At full speed, it would likely take no more than 40 minutes to reach the skies above Jinghai.

As time ticked away, those surrounding surveillance satellites persistently followed behind.

Of course, Beautiful Country’s two monitoring satellites were joined only by one, while the other kept watch over the situation at the main spacecraft’s base.

They’re not foolish; they’re afraid Lin Yi might be employing a diversion tactic, drawing all their surveillance away to conduct activities they wouldn’t want to see.

But they didn’t stop to think: if Lin Yi truly wanted to evade them, would he need to resort to such a rudimentary trick?

Wasn’t the parked spaceship the strongest evidence?

With such an enormous behemoth parked there, they could not even discern its surface details. Doesn’t this suggest something?

To be fair, these various countries’ surveillance satellites are not even as effective as some of the advanced telescopes on the ground.

At least those premium telescopes can faintly perceive a small black dot parked somewhere on the moon.

And what this small black dot represents is that very spacecraft.

"Report to the master; the spacecraft has entered the skies above Jinghai, now activating the high-altitude scanning mode."

As a voice transmitted back to Lin Yi’s tablet, the flying saucer officially entered the skies above Jinghai.

Upon entering the skies above Jinghai, the saucer immediately ascended, rising until the entire area of Jinghai lay beneath its view, at which point it halted its ascent.

Subsequently, the detectors on the saucer began to work, conducting a large probability screening of ground targets related to the launchpad.

This movement by the saucer generated further disturbance among the involved parties.

In the Black Palace’s meeting room over in Beautiful Country, watching the screen featuring satellite-detected footage of the spacecraft, the faces of many higher-ups turned as dark as a pot’s bottom.

"Now it seems our secret cannot remain contained. Next, we must seriously consider how to mitigate the public’s influence."

After a lengthy silence, Harla Shao was the first to speak.

At present, one could say Lin Yi’s motive is as clear as daylight.

After all, the spacecraft is currently parked at the location where they originally declared they landed on the moon — the Sea of Tranquility.

Though the Sea of Tranquility is vast, they believe with the technological level demonstrated by the present conglomerates, locating a specific target is far too easy.

Precisely because of this, it has left them utterly despondent.

Bear in mind, the entire incident back then was nothing but an utter fabrication.

Initially, they were contemplating, if Lin Yi could grant them some reprieve, they would dispatch a lunar module to conduct a landing.

Then by planting a retrofitted flag and leaving a few footprints, they could entirely claim it was the same footprint from then.

But now, all those plans have come crashing down!

With Lin Yi’s spacecraft entering the skies above Jinghai, everything disappeared like bubbles.

Not granting them even a sliver of respite.

Not only on the Beautiful Country’s side, but all other factions trailing behind this saucer sensed the real purpose once the saucer entered Jinghai.

There’s not much choice; the incident back then created such a massive uproar, and Beautiful Country confidently affirmed their literal lunar landing spot to the public.

Yet now, observing the flying saucer’s actions, it doesn’t intend to proceed towards any specific coordinates rendered by Beautiful Country, opting instead for self-directed probing.

Thus, its probing carries even greater credibility.

Turning again to the meeting room within the Black Palace.

After hearing Harla Shao’s words, some voiced opposition:

"Thinking of explaining to the public? What explanation could there be? Once this is disclosed, we may as well relinquish our dignity.

Previous incidents have already stirred the public’s emotions; if this follows suit, we, this entire group, might as well roll up our rugs and leave the Black Palace."

At that moment, he couldn’t help but violently slam his coffee cup on the table repeatedly.

In a burst, everyone’s emotions were piqued.

Following those words, Harla Shao’s expression turned exceedingly grim, coldly replying to the speaker:

"I realize that there’s little point in talking now, but if we don’t appease the public’s rage, what else can we do?

You tell me, what should we do?

Can we possibly stop the other side from exploring further?

Do you think our earlier conflicts with them would lead them to overlook us?"

With a series of rhetorical questions, she rendered that man speechless.

Moreover, Harla Shao the woman at this moment demonstrated resilience.

After posing these questions, she couldn’t help but continuously pound the table.

Needless to say, even a clay figure harbors anger, at this point, nearly everyone’s fury targeted her as the public persona, and how would she as a woman bear it?

This led her to directly unleash an outburst in such a setting.

"Your statement has an issue there.

There’s nothing that benefits can’t resolve.

If the other party has refused, it implies we’re not providing enough benefits.

I refuse to believe that after offering adequate allure, the other party will remain indifferent."

At this moment, a composed, middle-aged African-American suddenly spoke.

And upon hearing this voice, everyone subconsciously turned their gaze toward this Xiao Hei~Xiao Ao.
