I handed over to another world

General Nilaso of the Para Association, who once completed the third branch of the Southeast Asia Planetary Development Agency in the association, plans to go to the Red Dragon Association in person in the next few days. The current head of the Red Dragon Association, Chen Lin, has requested that many representatives, leaders and even presidents of the association who have close ties with the Red Dragon Association around the world go there to hold a conference in the near future.

For General Nilaso - of course, he can now be called President Nilaso, after he replaced Parawan as the actual president of the Para Association, relying on the relationship with the Third Branch of the Planetary Development Agency, he made the Para Association directly become the most powerful one in the entire Southeast Asian Association.

Nilaso has now put away his original military attire and transformed himself into a politician.

"President Nilaso, it's time for us to set off."

The personal guard outside spoke to him at this time. Nilaso nodded and immediately said, "Have you arranged everything for the association during my absence?"

"The forces previously associated with Parawan have been eradicated, but we cannot guarantee that any unexpected situation will occur unexpectedly, so we need to take it one step at a time. At least we have made sufficient preparations."

Nilaso also knew that even he could not predict the unexpected situation, and many of these people did not know how to deal with these things. If possible, he would go to the Red Dragon Association and even meet the president of the Red Dragon Association in person to ask for help...

He thought about it and nodded: "That's fine. If there is a situation that cannot be handled, please use my name to seek help from the Guards of the Third Branch of the Red Dragon Association's Planetary Development Agency. With their intervention, no one can cause much trouble."

"I'll let them know."

"Well, it's getting late, let's go!"

President Nilaso finally nodded and officially set off for the Red Dragon Association.

Nilaso's vehicle is not an airplane or a ship in the traditional sense, but an "air shuttle" that has been improved with the technology of the Red Dragon Association - the streamlined silver-gray shell is etched with dark red dragon patterns, and the tail engine emits a faint blue ion halo.

This super space shuttle itself is derived from a conventional starship. It was specially prepared by the Red Dragon Association for those association leaders from all over the world who are pro-Red Dragon Association. This time they will all take this unique means of transportation when they go to the Red Dragon Association.

When the pilot in the front row activated the anti-gravity device, the entire cabin floated up silently, and the rain forest of Southeast Asia outside the window appeared with a copper-colored glow refracted by the magnetic storm clouds.

"The route has been locked to the Red Dragon Association's headquarters, 'Kunlun Tianque'."

The voice of artificial intelligence sounded, and the space shuttle suddenly broke through the troposphere. The atmosphere outside the porthole suddenly changed from indigo to black, and was instantly filled with countless golden tracks - that was the "Universe Starlink" of the Red Dragon Association. An optical network woven by tens of thousands of nanosatellites covered the entire East Asia. Every node was transmitting data streams synchronously, like a giant mechanical dragon entrenched in low-Earth orbit.

Nilasso's fingertips tapped unconsciously on the armrest of the seat.

When he first stepped into the border of the Red Dragon Association five years ago, there were only a few experimental quantum towers - at that time, he had no idea what they were doing, but now he knows that those things are actually an extension of the Red Dragon Association.

Those towering super quantum towers are actually energy supply devices. After all, the energy of the entire Southeast Asia now comes from the Red Dragon Association. Relying solely on this device, the Red Dragon Association has completely controlled everyone outside.

More than a decade ago, the Red Dragon Association only provided them with electricity and internet, but more than a decade later, the Red Dragon Association took complete control of everything.

Southeast Asia used to be able to try to be self-reliant, but today there is absolutely no hope or possibility.

At this moment, the space shuttle was passing through the gravitational lens outside the "Sky Palace" and soon arrived at the border entry point of the Red Dragon Association again.

The shuttle slowly slowed down, and outside the porthole, the border checkpoint of the Red Dragon Association gradually became clear - it was not a customs or checkpoint in the traditional sense, but a giant hexagonal platform suspended in the air, with a liquid metal-like luster flowing on its surface, and a black obelisk stood in the center, engraved with glittering runes, like some totem that blended ancient and modern technology.

"Identity verification process initiated."

A cold mechanical female voice sounded in the cabin.

The air in front of Nilaso twisted slightly, and the holographic projection unfolded, revealing a scarlet dragon-shaped emblem - this was a unique certification system issued to him by the Red Dragon Association.

He raised his wrist, revealing the biometric key chip implanted on the inside of his wrist. A scanning beam passed over it, causing the chip to heat up slightly, and then projected a holographic identity code.

"Authentication approved - President Nilaso of the Para Association, clearance level: A-7."

The runes on the obelisk suddenly lit up, and a crack appeared in the center of the obelisk. A deep blue light curtain spread out like water waves, and the space shuttle was pulled by an invisible force field and slowly drove into it.

The moment he passed through the light curtain, Nilaso's pupils shrank slightly at the sight before him - the Red Dragon Association's border city "Chixiao Pass" was like a fragment torn from a future scroll, with towering alloy buildings reaching into the sky, and the surface covered with dynamic nano-coatings, which changed color with the skylight, sometimes as heavy as an ancient bronze artifact, and sometimes as transparent as liquid crystal.

The streets are not paved on the ground, but are a network of magnetic tracks suspended in the air. Countless vehicles shuttle back and forth like meteors, but silently.

The most shocking thing is the "Dragon Spine Tower" in the center of the city - it is a spirally rising super building, all black, with red data streams flowing on the surface, like a giant dragon, and a huge energy core is suspended on the top of the tower, emitting a star-like glow.

"The shuttle is about to enter the recovery process. All passengers please prepare to transfer."

The gentle voice of the artificial intelligence reminded all personnel entering the border line at this time. The hatch of the space shuttle opened, and Nilaso stepped onto the docking platform. The metal ground under his feet glowed slightly, as if it had life and adapted to his steps.

Several border officials from the Red Dragon Association were already waiting. They were wearing dark red uniforms, dragon badges on their chests, and had stern faces and eyes as sharp as knives.

"President Nilaso, welcome." The leading man nodded slightly, his voice calm but unquestionable. "We will take over the maintenance of your shuttle. Next, please follow us to the transmission area."

"Okay, okay..."

Nilaso was stunned for a moment. He tried hard to adjust his posture and entered the world of the Red Dragon Association. He seemed to have instantly returned to his childhood. Everything was new and everything was huge.

He noticed that the entire city was suspended above the stratosphere, supported by a hexagonal honeycomb structure driven by a special crystal core engine. The surface of the building was covered with active nanomaterials, which changed into a dragon scale-like texture depending on the angle of sunlight.

Even more breathtaking is the "Eye of the Candle Dragon" in the center of the city: it is a spherical supercomputer with a diameter of three kilometers. The light patterns flowing on its surface are the "second-level civilization symbol" of the Red Dragon Association - representing that they can directly control the planetary-level energy network.

Border officials led Nilaso and his group through a suspended corridor and came to a hemispherical building.

The surface of the building is as smooth as a mirror, without any seams, except for a dark round door in the center, which is carved with intricate dragon patterns. "This is our newly built transmission device 'Dragon Gate' - to be more scientific, it can also be called a short-distance space folding device."

The official explained, "It will take you directly to the core area of ​​'Kunlun Tianque' in Shangdu."

The door slid open silently, revealing a dark blue void inside. A rotating silver halo was suspended in the center, and inside the halo were twisted space ripples, as if leading to another dimension.

Nilaso nodded slightly, and followed the instructions of the leading official, and led his team into the dragon gate.

In an instant, the world spun.

There is no feeling of falling, no feeling of being torn apart, just a moment of weightlessness, as if being gently "folded" and "unfolded" by some force.

The next second, his feet were on solid ground.

The other people at the scene all let out a slight cry of surprise. The person nearby was in a daze for a moment before reacting and said to Nilaso, "President, it is said that there is a transmission device in the third branch that leads directly to the Red Dragon Association... Why don't they let us use that to come over?"

"Maybe it's because we weren't originally planning to use it."

The people on the other side also spoke up at this time. Nilaso glanced at each of them, but did not continue the topic: "Now that you are in the Red Dragon Association, keep your mouth shut and don't talk nonsense."

"Yes……"

Everyone followed Nilaso out of the door, and the world in front of them suddenly became clear - everyone was surprised to find that they were standing on a huge platform suspended in the clouds, surrounded by the boundless sky, and under their feet was a translucent energy floor. Through the floor, they could overlook the entire territory of the Red Dragon Association, and the mountains and rivers spread out like a miniature model.

Directly in front of us is a towering palace complex, whose architectural style is a blend of ancient oriental charm and futuristic technology. Holographically projected red dragons are wrapped around the eaves and corners, with eyes as bright as torches, looking lifelike. The main hall "Tianshu Pavilion" in the center of the palace is made of some unknown dark gold alloy, with liquid light patterns flowing on its surface, just like the heaven in mythology.

In the square in front of the hall, dozens of association representatives from all over the world were already lined up waiting. They were dressed differently, but without exception, their expressions were solemn, their eyes focused on the depths of the hall.

Just as Nilaso took a step forward, the "ground" under his feet suddenly rippled - he suddenly realized that what he was standing on was not a real energy floor, but a nearly perfect holographic projection.

The entire "floating platform" and the "Tianshu Pavilion" in the distance are just illusions constructed by light and shadow.

"Welcome to the 'Candle Dragon Courtyard'."

A low and majestic voice sounded from all directions, as if the entire sky was speaking.

The holographic projection on the square suddenly changed. The clouds surged, and red data streams poured down like waterfalls, condensing into a huge red dragon in mid-air, with its head lowered, overlooking everyone.

And in the dragon's eyes, there was a cold mechanical luster flashing - that was the original consciousness of the "Zhulong" artificial intelligence.

"Dear representatives of the association, your arrival has been recorded."

The Red Dragon's voice was not mechanically synthesized, but had a certain almost human rhythm, as if an ancient emperor was reading out his decree.

"President Chen Lin is about to appear. Please remain quiet."

As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the center of the square twisted, and a figure slowly walked out from nothingness - Chen Lin was still dressed in dark red clothes, and the golden dragon pattern on the cuffs glowed slightly in the light and shadow.

His face was calm, but his eyes were as unfathomable as the abyss - most disturbingly, the outline of his body would occasionally flicker for a moment, as if he himself was just a projection of a higher dimension.

"Everyone." Chen Lin spoke, his voice was not loud, but it made the entire square silent. "Thank you for responding to the call and coming to Shangdu."

He raised his hand and waved it. The holographic ground beneath everyone's feet suddenly changed, transforming into a huge star map - a three-dimensional projection of the solar system was rotating beneath their feet. Mars, Jupiter, the asteroid belt... each one was marked with the Red Dragon Association's colonies and resource mining stations.

"I have called you all together today to discuss the future of the Planetary Development Agency."

Chen Lin's eyes swept across the crowd, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"The Red Dragon Association has decided to open up some planetary development rights to you."

Everyone at the scene was suddenly in an uproar. This sentence was like a bomb that instantly detonated the entire square.

Nilaso heard gasps behind him, and several representatives even took a step forward uncontrollably, with greed flashing in their eyes.

“You mean… we can buy the development rights?!”

The voice of a president from the European United Association trembled, and as Chen Lin nodded slightly, those people became almost crazy.

"The Hellas Basin on Mars, the subglacial ocean on Jupiter's moon Europa, the rare metal veins in the asteroid belt...these resources, the Red Dragon Association is willing to 'share'."

He deliberately emphasized the word "share", as if to imply some deeper transaction.

"Of course, there are different levels of authority."

Chen Lin raised his hand, and different colored marks appeared on the star map. "A-level permissions allow you to independently establish colonies, B-level permissions allow you to participate in joint mining, and C-level permissions allow you to only purchase finished resources."

This was enough to attract a large number of people at the scene. They looked at each other and then smiled. Even if they did as Chen Lin said, they would be able to participate in the subsequent planetary development, which represented endless possibilities!
Chen Lin was walking in the aisle in front of everyone, whispering to them as he walked: "In fact, the Red Dragon Association does not oppose the in-depth cooperation between you and us. We have even helped and accelerated the technological development of many associations in the interstellar era. It's just that you didn't notice it most of the time."

"In the future, this kind of cooperation will be more in-depth and comprehensive. Are you interested?" (End of this chapter)
