Throughout the journey, she issued instructions via internal communication.

"All armored soldiers, please evacuate the artillery command post now. We have located the enemy's armory and are about to detonate it."

"All armored soldiers, please evacuate the artillery regiment command post as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, the other armored soldiers who were engaged in fierce fighting dared not linger and retreated one after another.

After half a minute of searching, Jiang Chen, led by Li Xintong, finally found the location of the armory.

But now we face another problem.

They didn't have explosives.

If Jiang Chen were to directly attack these weapons, even with armor protecting him, he would likely be pulverized.

Just then, Li Xintong took out a small object and threw it there.

"Hehe, mission accomplished. As expected, you still have to rely on me. You men are just unreliable. Let's go."

Before Jiang Chen could react, Li Xintong had already pulled him away from the artillery regiment command post via the fastest route.

After confirming that all armored soldiers had evacuated, Li Xintong activated the explosive device.

"boom!"

A brilliant spark ignited inside the artillery regiment's command post.

Most of the enemy reinforcements that came from the surrounding area also disappeared in the explosion.

At this moment, Luo Yong and the others finally arrived late.

"Commander, we've arrived! We've arrived! Where are you? What's the situation?"

Luo Yong and the other man asked anxiously.

Jiang Chen looked at the scene before him and was at a loss for words.

Is this the end?
What was originally a tense and even dangerous situation ended so inexplicably.

Although Jiang Chen was reluctant to admit it, all the credit truly went to Li Xintong. Without this girl, the outcome of the battle would have been very different; their casualties would likely have been even greater, and his own survival would have been questionable.

"No need to come any further. Organize the evacuation. The battle is over."

Jiang Chen said helplessly.

"What? It's over? Who destroyed the enemy's command post?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Yong and his companion were stunned.

They were even more shocked when they saw that the artillery regiment command post in front of them had actually been destroyed.

"Sigh, let's talk about it when we get back. This isn't the place to talk."

Jiang Chen was also in a state of confusion at this moment, and said helplessly.

Luo Yong nodded and began organizing the troops to withdraw.

In mid-air, Jiang Chen began to carefully examine Li Xintong's armor.

The battle was too intense for him to watch.

Looking at it closely now, this armor is quite unique.

It looks bulky, but its entire body is riddled with weapon ports, like a machine armed to the teeth.

His entire body is a potential source of firepower.

Most importantly, this thing is also very intelligent and multifunctional.

"I really didn't realize you could already develop armor on your own."

Jiang Chen was truly impressed.

"Hmph, of course, who am I? I'm a genius, isn't this a piece of cake?"

Jiang Chen had nothing to say about this.

"This thing can also be mass-produced for the military, which has many advantages."

Jiang Chen spoke up.

Unexpectedly, Li Xintong refused without hesitation.

"Don't even think about it. This is my own custom armor. Mass production is fine, but I hate wearing the same armor as everyone else. You know what I mean?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen shook his head with a helpless smile.

The next moment, his face darkened!
"However, no matter what, you acted too recklessly this time, which is not allowed."

"What if something happens to you during such a dangerous mission?"

"You can't participate in these kinds of missions on your own anymore. If I find out again, you'll have to go back to Starry Sky Headquarters. This place isn't for you."

Jiang Chen said in a calm tone.

He has always been a person who clearly distinguishes between rewards and punishments, without a doubt.

Although Li Xintong made a great contribution and helped a lot this time, we will not pursue the matter further.

But it's definitely wrong for her to participate in dangerous missions on her own.

"Huh? No way! I don't want to go back to Blue Star, and I especially don't want to go back to the Starry Sky Headquarters. Life here is so good, why would I want to go back? I'm not going back."

Li Xintong was immediately displeased upon hearing this.

She was already used to life in the universe, where everything was intelligent.

It was exactly the same as the technological fantasy she had always longed for.

Living here is no different from living on Earth.

Moreover, this is the universe; every morning when you open your eyes, you can see the vast and boundless starry sky.

If we went back to Earth, things wouldn't be so interesting.

"So from now on you have to be obedient and can't be so willful anymore, understand?"

Jiang Chen rebuked.

"slightly!"

Li Xintong didn't care about any of that. She knew in her heart that Jiang Chen definitely wouldn't let her go back to Blue Star; he was probably just trying to scare her.

"By the way, I'm quite curious about your family. How did they manage to raise such an outstanding person like you?"

"They must be even better, right? Wouldn't you be perfectly happy if you could bring them here to live and work as well?"

Jiang Chen suddenly realized a problem.

I don't think I've ever met Li Xintong's parents.

To raise such an outstanding and highly intelligent person, her parents must also be extremely intelligent.

If they could serve Space City No. 2 and contribute their strength, Jiang Chen believed that the space age would arrive much sooner.

These are all exceptional talents.

Upon hearing this, Li Xintong fell silent.

His face was full of disappointment.

They're too lazy to even speak.

"I'm going back to rest now, I'm really too tired today."

Jiang Chen was stunned as he watched her walk away.

"Um, did I say something wrong?"

Jiang Chen quickly chased after him.

"Did I say something wrong? Did your parents...?"

Li Xintong spoke calmly.

"Sigh, of course they're not dead, but it's no different from them being dead. From the moment they started researching that thing until now, they've never cared about me!"

"They started researching that topic when I was about five years old, and they've been working on it ever since. I don't know how it's going. The topic they're researching is an absolutely confidential document."

"But actually, this isn't really a secret anymore."

"It's alright to tell you, it's not a big deal. Have you ever heard of five-dimensional virtual space?"

"what?"

Jiang Chen was stunned, clearly not expecting this to happen.

However, upon closer reflection, Jiang Chen felt that it seemed to make sense.

When I first met Li Xintong, I felt that this girl had a very strange personality.

Extremely reclusive.

This is probably because his parents were not around when he was young.

That's how I developed this personality. It's gotten a little better now.

But you can still tell that she has a slightly aloof personality.

"I'm so sorry, I didn't know you had been taking care of yourself since you were little. Your parents are really something, they have no sense of responsibility at all."

Jiang Chen smiled awkwardly and quickly shut up.

"Actually, it's nothing. I've already figured it out because I understand what they're doing, so I can accept it."

You probably won't believe it if I told you.

"Actually, when I was very young, my parents were already able to invent rockets on their own."

"And at that time, their dream was to find a habitable planet outside the solar system."

"But that was impossible, so they changed direction and began to study five-dimensional space technology, intending to create a world in virtual space to simulate the mysteries of space."

As Li Xintong spoke, tears unknowingly streamed down her face.

Jiang Chen suddenly remembered something important.

In those days.

The United States was the first to launch a rocket and land on the moon, causing a huge sensation around the world.

At that time, geniuses from all over the world flocked to the United States, allowing the country to absorb a large number of high-quality talents.

People are paying more and more attention to the world beyond the universe.

In addition, the environment on Earth at that time was not good, and the greenhouse effect was becoming increasingly serious.

Therefore, people began to have the idea of ​​leaving Earth.

At the same time, this is also of great significance to humanity's first step towards the universe.

It turns out that Li Xintong's parents were already so farsighted back then.

And they actually invented rockets.

That alone is already quite remarkable.

At that time, China was not capable of launching rockets, let alone manned rockets.

But why is there no relevant record from the space agency?
This should be a source of pride for the entire Dragon Kingdom.

Moreover, this can greatly help China improve its aviation technology level.

Li Xintong's parents devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the aerospace industry and scientific research. Jiang Chen felt that their spirit of dedication to science was very worthy of respect.

Strangely, why is there absolutely no news about them circulating?

It seems the problem lies in the confidentiality of this information; it is precisely because it is top secret that there are no related records.

"You don't believe me either? Actually, it's nothing. When I tell other people about this, they don't believe me either."

"They didn't believe my parents could develop rockets on their own; nobody knew about it."

Li Xintong seemed unsurprised by Jiang Chen's reaction.

She didn't pay much attention to it.

"Developing rockets solely through one's own efforts, and keeping it a secret from everyone? That's highly unlikely."

Jiang Chen smiled awkwardly.

This sounds a bit unrealistic.

He actually wanted to believe Li Xintong's words.

But this is really hard to believe.

In that era of limited technology, even manned rockets required the combined efforts of the entire nation to complete.

Anyone with a sound mind would probably not believe it.

This is simply unbelievable.

It's like a genius suddenly emerging in a small, economically backward village where technology is scarce, and inventing a high-tech product like a computer.

"Sigh, even you don't believe me, but it's okay, I'm used to it, no one has ever believed me before."

"Even I started to doubt whether this was really true."

"These are all memories from my childhood."

Li Xintong smiled and shook her head as she spoke.

"Of course I believe you, there's nothing strange about it. But what exactly is fifth-dimensional space? And what is its significance?"

Jiang Chen asked with some curiosity.

"Five dimensions, simply put, is adding another dimension to the four-dimensional world we currently live in, that's all."

Li Xintong explained earnestly.

"The fifth dimension is a powerful weapons testing ground, with a variety of functions!"

"Why is the United States able to research nuclear weapons? Because they have strong basic capabilities and can test the performance of weapons in the Gobi Desert, which is a unique advantage."

"So, when our country was also able to develop nuclear weapons, we discovered a problem."

"Researching powerful weapons would cause immense damage to the human environment. Is it possible to create a virtual space to test the effectiveness of these weapons?"

"That's how the concept of five-dimensional space came about."

Jiang Chen was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what he meant.

That's what happened.

This is indeed a highly innovative and significant scientific study.

Humans can only test the power of weapons in the Gobi Desert or at sea.

However, the damage this has caused to the human environment is too great and the harm is too severe.

Therefore, if we could create a virtual space that perfectly simulates the Earth environment, it would be ideal.

Therefore, in this five-dimensional space, whether it is testing the performance of weapons or conducting experiments at various stages, everything can be carried out smoothly.

Even powerful engines, such as faster-than-light engines, and many more scientific experiments can be carried out in the fifth-dimensional world, and the actual effects can be reproduced 100%.

In this way, humans can clearly understand the entire process of a deadly and powerful weapon being unleashed in virtual space.

I must say, this idea is really good.

This greatly limits the environmental damage caused by weapons.

"Where are your parents now? I really want to know them. It's important because we have many more science and technology projects that need to be tested."

"Five-dimensional space is crucial."

Li Xintong thought for a moment and said:
"You have to ask Old Cheng about this. Only he knows. Even I don't know. It's top secret."

Jiang Chen immediately contacted Elder Cheng.

He explained the whole story in detail.

"Huh? This girl is really biased towards outsiders. We've only known each other for a short time, and she's already telling you about the fifth dimension?"

Old Cheng had never been so speechless in his life.

The creation of five-dimensional spacetime is their most advanced technological achievement to date.

It is indeed a place where devastating weapons tests can be conducted.

The country has invested a great deal of human, material, and financial resources in this technology.

It's only been a long time since we've achieved any results.

As a result, Li Xintong revealed everything, which is both laughable and pathetic.

If there is any military technology in the country that is currently ahead of Jiang Chen's, it is only this five-dimensional spacetime.

However, considering Jiang Chen's special identity and importance.

Old Cheng nodded helplessly.

"In that case, come to the military headquarters to find me first, and I'll take you there to have a look."

"Perfect timing, it will also allow Li Xintong to meet her parents. Speaking of which, they haven't seen each other for a long time."

With Elder Cheng's permission, Jiang Chen and Li Xintong quickly packed their things and returned to Blue Star.

Li Xintong seemed particularly excited throughout the journey, which Jiang Chen could understand.

It's only natural to be excited to see my parents for the first time in so many years.

They arrived at the military headquarters.

At this moment, Old Cheng was already waiting there.

Jiang Chen hadn't even had a chance to speak yet. (End of Chapter)
