Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.

"That's enough for now, after all, this is your first time leading this type of project. But the same mistake must not be allowed to happen again. You are the chief scientist of our Kyushu Corporation, understand?"

Jiang Chuan's mood grew even heavier. Those two hours of delay had been agonizing for him. If the problem wasn't resolved properly, the entire plan could very well fall apart.

In desperation, they had no choice but to convene an emergency meeting immediately.

"Okay!..."

The chatter among the crowd gradually made Chen Tianfei increasingly irritable.

"Now is not the time to investigate mistakes. I only have one question for everyone—can you guarantee that the launch in two hours will be foolproof? I made a solemn promise to the boss."

This time, all the department heads nodded in agreement.

"I'm giving you sixty minutes to immediately launch a full investigation. If any link in the chain goes wrong, whoever is responsible will bear the legal consequences."

People sprang into action, while Chen Tianfei waited anxiously alone. Those sixty minutes felt incredibly long and agonizing.

Fortunately, no further incidents occurred, and all equipment on the launch platform has now been debugged.

Finally, the countdown has entered its final thirty minutes.

The atmosphere on the scene immediately became tense, especially for Chen Tianfei, who never expected such a major oversight to occur at such a crucial moment.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly for the last half hour. As the countdown reached zero, all engines ignited simultaneously, and the rocket broke through the atmosphere at an astonishing speed.

A burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the crowd, and at the same time, the on-site commander officially announced that the launch was a complete success and the launch vehicle had accurately entered its predetermined orbit.

Once started, the large equipment will head directly to its final destination.

The forward space station has begun monitoring the giant launch vehicle, and all data are currently performing well.

Jiang Chuan was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

"My God, you have no idea how dangerous that was. I almost thought the mission was going to fail completely."

Now it's Jiang Chuan's turn to be on edge.

The next three days of the voyage are even more crucial, as this large spacecraft is tasked with humanity's first deep-space journey.

According to the plan, the first destination is the space station that is already ready, and personnel can be transported after docking is completed.

According to the plan, the space station will be staffed with five dedicated personnel, each responsible for managing one large spacecraft.

Tony will perform his task atop the launch vehicle, ensuring the five thrusters are precisely installed.

Jiang Chuan immediately convened a meeting with everyone.

"Listen up, everyone, it's our turn to take the stage now. Whether all of humanity can continue to live in peace depends on this moment."

Jiang Chuan gazed solemnly at everyone present.

“I am not only a so-called savior of humanity, but also an ordinary father. All I do is hope that my children can be safe and happy.”

Everyone nodded in agreement. Some were fighting for their elderly mothers, some were concerned about their loved ones on Earth, while Tony was more interested in protecting his business.

"In that case, let the six of us plus me, the seven warriors, face the ultimate showdown with the asteroid."

Are you coming along too?

Tony was surprised.

“Of course I will go. However, I will not stay at one operating platform. Instead, I will wear special armor to provide support at any time. If an emergency occurs, I can provide timely assistance.”

Tony nodded in agreement; Jiang Chuan's arrangement was indeed more prudent. As the giant carrier gradually decelerated and successfully docked, the operation officially commenced.

"Let's go!"

The space station pulled the giant launch vehicle forward slowly, and soon they arrived in the vicinity of the asteroid.

The moment the docking hatch separated, the warriors began their journey toward the surface of the asteroid.

At this moment, only high-level commanders can observe the operation, and the higher-ups are on edge.

The giant launch vehicle landed precisely on the surface of the asteroid and immediately began its operational procedures.

Everyone remained calm and composed.

With all preparations complete, the operation commenced immediately. After the vehicle landed smoothly, the cargo hatches slowly opened.

Five thrusters slowly descended under the control of a robotic arm.

"Oh no! The controls have malfunctioned!"

The asteroid's density exceeded expectations, causing previous calculations to be inaccurate.

After discovering the anomaly in the gravitational field, the group struggled to find a solution.

"Please handle this carefully! No matter what happens, you must ensure the interface is absolutely secure, understand?"

At this moment, Jiang Chuan realized the seriousness of the situation and rushed to the bottom of the five thrusters to investigate. After careful inspection, he realized that the problem was far more complicated than he had imagined.

“How should we respond?”

At this moment, the victor heard Jiang Chuan's call and immediately took out a device.

"The current plan is to manufacture the protective shield urgently and install it once it is ready. But doing so would sacrifice accuracy."

"That's definitely not feasible..."

At the critical moment, Jiang Chuan firmly shook his head.

Left with no other choice, he immediately adopted another plan and quickly went to the bottom of the device to redeploy it.

"Tony, can you hear me? Continue working as planned. If you find any parts loose, notify me immediately so I can make the reverse adjustment."

Unexpectedly, all five control panels sounded a loose alarm at the same time. What should we do?

At this moment, Xu Jiajia had a flash of inspiration and transformed the waste materials that she had prepared in advance into a temporary reverse propulsion device.

Once the installation was complete, they immediately started the reverse operation procedure.

Unfortunately, the scrap materials were only enough to assemble four thrusters, which meant that the fifth device was about to crash.

"give it to me!"

A sudden inspiration struck Jiang Chuan, who immediately took to the air and flew to the bottom of the fifth thruster, using his own equipment to build the last line of defense.

The specially designed armor instantly unleashed a powerful thrust, successfully protecting all the equipment and completing the installation. But a new challenge arose – how to evacuate safely?
"Are you crazy? Get out here!"

Xu Jiajia gasped in shock.

"Hold on a little longer."

The intelligent system rapidly calculates the best time to escape, instantly completes the countdown planning, and projects the evacuation route onto the main screen in real time.

When the escape route became clear, all observers held their breath. After all, Jiang Chuan was the key figure in the entire plan, and everyone's heart was in their throats.

As the planetary thrusters were installed one by one, at the very last moment—

The armor's emergency propulsion system suddenly activated, successfully escaping Jiang Chuan from the perilous situation.

The installation of the planetary thrusters has finally moved into its second phase.

Fortunately, the subsequent installation process went quite smoothly.

"Very good, the main problems have been basically resolved. Immediately install all the spare materials and complete the finishing work as soon as possible."

According to system calculations, all personnel, along with the giant transport device, evacuated rapidly, tracing a perfect safe trajectory in space.

"Start ignition!"

Five main thrusters simultaneously spewed flames, working in conjunction with a cluster of small planetary thrusters designed earlier by Cao Liping. However, shockingly, although the planetary orbit began to change, the expected results were not achieved.

"Frankly, a collision is still unavoidable."

Tony's voice was filled with despair.

"Humanity is going to perish... This is our last chance. We made a mistake in the density calculation during the crucial measurement."

Jiang Chuan was equally shocked.

"Now is not the time to panic." (End of Chapter)
