Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

For the next two days, Meng Chuan and Prince Fu stayed in Qinglian Fort.

In fact, Mars as it is now, if we don't consider solar radiation...

Humans can now survive briefly on it without wearing spacesuits.

Especially near Qinglianbao.

There are a large number of oxygen generators in Qinglian Fortress, and some oxygen will leak into the air.

Most importantly, the observers' oxygen generators are more efficient in order to create an artificial atmosphere.

The oxygen concentration on Mars is now around 10 percent.

As long as there is no strenuous exercise, this oxygen concentration is sufficient for human survival.

However, Meng Chuan had other purposes in Qinglian Fort.

One option is to have the robot dog continue excavating inside the methane ice cave.

Numerous cavities were excavated.

Secondly, large quantities of oxygen were transported from Qinglian Fort to the methane ice caves.

It is about 100 kilometers from Qinglianbao to the steel and cement production base.

The reason we chose such a remote location to build the steel and cement production base was because there was a large amount of solid water underground there.

Furthermore, because this place is close to the Arctic, the living environment is even harsher.

That's why Qinglianbao was located more than 100 kilometers away.

To facilitate water access, Zhan laid a water pipeline between Qinglianbao and the production base early on.

The water pipe has now been temporarily converted into an oxygen delivery pipe.

Meng Chuan needed to transport a large amount of oxygen into that cave.

An explosion can only be more complete if there is sufficient oxygen.

Three days later, everything was ready.

Nearly 100 million cubic meters of oxygen have filled the entire cave.

Moreover, they are all at high concentrations, reaching 80% oxygen.

In order to gather so much oxygen, much of the work and research at Qinglian Fortress and the underground castle was halted.

For example, the oxygen supply to the biological culture chamber was also cut off.

All personnel entered the underground castle.

Meng Chuan instructed them to stop all unnecessary activities as much as possible to reduce oxygen consumption.

Even people who have worked on Mars for a long time are unaware that there is such a huge underground castle beneath Mars.

For example, Lin Zhou and Wei Ping, among others.

They have always lived in Qinglian Fortress on the ground.

Many of them were unaware that the tunnel boring machine was being transported up.

"Master, what's the next step?"

Inside the underground castle, Zhan Yi looked at Meng Chuan with a solemn expression.

The decisive battle is about to begin.

He was just waiting for Meng Chuan to give the order.

"Get me to the observers. I need to tell them there's a methane surge, and there's a high chance of a massive explosion!"

Meng Chuan hesitated for a moment, then said something that surprised everyone.

"Boss, what you've done..."

Zhan Yi was getting a little anxious.

Even Yingdie stared at Meng Chuan in shock, not understanding why he would make this decision.

Their plan was to launch a surprise attack, causing an accidental explosion to destroy the observer's engineering vessel.

If the observers are informed in advance, it is very likely that they will be on guard.

"If they want to distance themselves from us and create an accident that they can believe, they need to mix truth and falsehood, reality and illusion."

A fierce and wise glint flashed in Meng Chuan's eyes.

Meng Chuan might underestimate the observer's physical condition.

But we should never underestimate their wisdom.

Moreover, the closer we get to this critical moment, the more cautious we must be.

If even the slightest clue is detected by the observer, the entire operation could be lost.

"Zhan Yi, from now on, obey the leader's orders in everything, and no questioning is allowed. The rule of strict obedience will not change just because this is Mars."

Prince Fu looked at Zhan Yi seriously and said in a cold and chilling tone:

"I don't want to do it again."

Prince Fu was aware of the seriousness of the matter.

Although he had previously been puzzled as to why Meng Chuan had notified the observers in advance.

However, things have already come to this point, and Meng Chuan is now the ultimate commander.

They must unconditionally support any instruction, whether it is correct or incorrect.

Moreover, countless events have proven that Meng Chuan's decisions have been correct.

Even if Meng Chuan's decisions sometimes seem absurd.

Now that things have come to this, only by unconditionally trusting Meng Chuan can we avoid missing the opportunity to win the battle.

"Yes, Zhan Yi understands."

Zhan Yi was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

He hadn't felt the Prince of Fu's sternness for a long time.

Another thing is that Meng Chuan is usually too approachable and always answers every question.

He gradually forgot the traditions of the Green Gang.

In the Green Gang, Meng Chuan was the gang leader, while Rang was just a hall master.

They should obey unconditionally.

Soon, Zhan Yi connected with the observer.

Since observers began to modify the Martian atmosphere.

They then had a direct way to contact Zhan Yi.

Meng Chuan took the communication equipment and said in a serious tone:

"Hello observer... We have detected that in addition to the recent increase in oxygen concentration in the atmosphere, a large amount of methane gas is also being emitted..."

"this is normal."

Before Meng Chuan could finish speaking, the observer's voice interrupted impatiently:

"There is a large amount of methane ice underground on this barren planet, which you call Mars. As we create an artificial atmosphere, the temperature of Mars will gradually rise, and the methane ice will naturally melt."

"But I'm worried..."

Meng Chuan was about to say something, but the observer interrupted him again:

"There's nothing to worry about. As long as there's no open flame, it can't spontaneously combust. And as the atmosphere is completed, methane gas, being light, will slowly rise and become part of the atmosphere. It can also accelerate our atmospheric transformation."

The observers' impatience became increasingly apparent.

It's like an adult explaining science to a child.

To observers, Meng Chuan and his group were just like children.

They know nothing, yet they want to know everything.

Meng Chuan responded "helplessly" into the communicator:

"We are only providing a warning; please make your own judgments. After all, the geological conditions on Mars are too complex."

"Understood, our monitoring equipment is more advanced than yours."

The observer then abruptly ended the call.

After hanging up the call, Meng Chuan felt a wave of relief wash over him.

His face beamed with joy:

“They took the bait.”

Meng Chuan had prepared a lot of arguments.

The result was that Meng Chuan didn't even need to say a word.

Or rather, the observers didn't even give Meng Chuan a chance to speak.

"Indeed, intelligent life, regardless of its level, cannot shake off its flaws of arrogance and conceit. The higher the intelligence, the greater this flaw becomes."

The old man was greatly pleased.

He had also overheard Meng Chuan's conversation with the observer.

Once again, facts have proven that Meng Chuan's decision was correct.

"Alright, now everything is ready except for the final push. Zhan Yi, you personally guard the area. When his engineering ship re-enters the Martian atmosphere, set it on fire."

"Of course, it would be best if their mothership entered Mars orbit, which would damage their mothership and increase our success rate."

"Yes, Zhan Yi will fight to the death to complete the mission."
