Roaming the universe, all thanks to your many dark skills!

China.

National Space Administration.

Chief Scientist Guo Ming and Deputy Chief Scientist Zhu Tao (note) also watched the NASA press conference.

"What is NASA doing this time?" Guo Ming asked with a frown.

"It doesn't look like they are making something up out of nothing." Zhu Tao said, "I saw the satellite images they released, and there is indeed an extra building. It looks like a glass greenhouse surrounded by several container houses, especially with a five-star red flag planted on it. It looks like they are our people."

"But our landing plan is still proceeding as planned. It's impossible to fly over now!" Guo Ming said helplessly.

"So I'm really curious about who is there and how he got there." Zhu Tao said, "It would be great if we could get in touch with him."

"Let's wait and see what the Americans do." Guo Ming said, "But we should also speed up our pace."

"Yes."

........................

At this time, Rosen and Mark knew nothing about what was happening on Earth.

They still go their own way.

Mark now focuses most of his energy on potatoes. After all, this is related to his survival, so he wants to stay next to the potatoes every day, even when sleeping.

Apart from occasionally visiting Rosen to have a meal and chat, he seldom left the living cabin.

Rosen has never been idle.

In addition to continuing to explore Mars and draw maps, he is still constantly brushing up his skill proficiency.

It’s just that since most skills have reached LV3, subsequent upgrades will require a lot of experience and proficiency, so it’s impossible for any skills to be upgraded in a short period of time.

However, Rosen was not discouraged and continued to practice diligently.

Especially the delivery at level 3, which is the focus of his daily practice.

While running around exploring, Rosen would collect minerals or meteorites of various colors and shapes.

He particularly likes red and yellow, and collects the most of them.

After returning, I asked the poisonous vine to clear out a 2400m x 1600m open space next to the glass greenhouse, and deliberately dug it deeper, and then poured the red ore I found into it.

Nothing happened in one or two days, but as time went on, more and more red minerals appeared on the ground, which attracted the attention and curiosity of Mark who came over occasionally.

"Rosen, what are you doing?" Mark asked.

"What do you think is the meaning of life?" Rosen asked instead of answering.

"Uh." Such a big question made it difficult for Mark to answer for a moment.

After all, for everyone, what is the meaning of life? There are really various different answers. Nothing is really right or wrong. It only matters what you think in your heart.

"I can't answer that." Marx thought about it and finally shook his head.

Luo Sen smiled and said: "Xu Sanduo once said that people should do meaningful things when they are alive. The meaningful thing is to live well, and I am doing a meaningful thing now."

"Who is Xu Sanduo?" Mark was even more confused and asked, "Is he a great man of China?"

"No, he's just an ordinary person." Rosen pointed to the ground and said, "But he has done many things that ordinary people can't do, and what I want to do now is just to pay tribute to him."

Mark looked at the ore on the ground and was completely confused, so he stopped asking questions.

How much ore is needed to fill a huge pit that is 2,400 meters long, 1,600 meters wide and about one meter deep? This is not only a mathematical problem, but also a difficult problem that tests a person's physical strength and willpower to the extreme.

Fortunately, Rosen was strong enough and had a storage compartment at hand. More importantly, he had no shortage of time and patience.

So this unimaginable huge pit was gradually filled and compacted as Rosen traveled back and forth to explore various places on Mars.

Gradually, Mark finally realized that it was a huge five-star red flag spread out on the ground.

For this feat, all he could do was exclaim, "Oh, My God!" and praise Rosen's will and perseverance.

"It's nothing, actually." Rosen waved his hand, looking at the five-star red flag gradually taking shape on the ground, and said, "It's a rare trip to this world, and I'm on Mars, so I have to leave some mark, right?"

What Rosen didn't know was that this giant five-star red flag, which was gradually growing larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, had given a strong shock to Minnie Parker, who was in charge of using satellites to observe Mark's movements on Mars at NASA.

The changes day by day are so different that it's just like someone holding a paintbrush and quickly painting a five-star red flag on the ground.

Especially when she learned how huge the five-star red flag was, one can imagine the shock and disbelief in her heart.

She really couldn't imagine how Rosen managed to do all this without using any large transport vehicles.

What was even more difficult for her to understand was how Rosen managed to move so quickly on Mars.

Could it be that the Chinese had developed some amazing single-person transportation tool? Minnie was full of doubts, but she dutifully reported her discovery to her superiors.

As a result, there are many more people who cannot see through it and cannot understand it.

NASA Administrator Teddy Sanders, who is used to looking at China with vigilance and scrutiny, is even more worried. He always feels that China has caught up with and is about to surpass the United States in the exploration of Mars.

This was simply unbearable for him.

Privately, he often sought advice from senior officials, hoping to get more support and financial investment from Congress for the exploration of Mars.

Unfortunately, I haven't received a positive response yet.

This also made him more irritated.

And on the other side of the earth.

China also learned through various channels about the giant five-star red flag that was slowly unfolding on Mars.

For a moment, everyone in the National Space Administration didn't know whether to be happy or depressed.

The joy is, of course, because China has left its own unique mark on Mars, the planet where humans have just landed. The five-star red flag is definitely bigger and more majestic than the American flag that Neil Armstrong planted on the moon.

Naturally, there are many benefits brought about by this, the most direct of which is to boost your morale and make you look better.

But what is depressing is that the person who accomplished such a great feat may be a Chinese, but he is not an astronaut sent by the National Space Administration.

What makes the space agency even more depressed is that until now they still don’t know his name or how he landed on Mars.

"I'm so worried!"

"When will our Apollo Project be launched?" (Note 2)

"Is there any way to contact him?"

........................

Solar Day 70.

Mark took the initiative to find Rosen again and took out a topographic map.

Note: I translated it according to the introduction in the movie, so leave it like this. You godfathers can figure out what it is specifically about.

Note 2: To be honest, I think the name of this plan doesn't seem like something our country would give it. It has no historical background at all. Even if it's called Yinghuo or something like that, it's better than the sun god.
