Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

Everyone has a sense of crisis that they have been kicked out of the fourth energy revolution by the combined efforts of others!

China missed the First Industrial Revolution and the Second Industrial Revolution, resulting in a century of weakness and suffering.

Although we only scratched the surface of the Third Information Revolution, we have finally caught up.

Today marks a crucial juncture in the fourth energy revolution.

They were actually kicked out by a group of people.

How can this not make people angry?

This is practically sending China back to an era where it could be bullied and humiliated by others.

They absolutely agree with this!

Zhu Jincheng returned to the capital overnight. Despite the fatigue of the journey, he immediately met with No. 1.

Number One was resting in his study, reading a book on the theory of the multiverse. When he saw Elder Zhu enter, he slightly raised his head and said softly:

"Mr. Zhu, are you here because of that matter in France?"

"Ok!"

Old Zhu gave a soft hum, his face turning cold as he suppressed his anger.

"Are they trying to discard us after we've served our purpose? So much money has been invested, and they think they can just kick us out whenever they want? Do they think they're some kind of emperor?"

We absolutely cannot let them succeed so easily!

Number One nodded slightly, quietly put down the book in his hand, chuckled, then took out a world map, pointed to the Indian Ocean, and said calmly:

"I heard that the components we provided for ITER have been shipped to the Indian Ocean and are about to reach the Red Sea?"

"That's right!"

Old Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, noticing that the area near Yemen had been circled.

With a sudden glare, Old Zhu exclaimed inwardly, "Good heavens!"

Unexpectedly, Number One had already made up his mind.

Look at the countries on both sides of the Red Sea, with two big circles drawn across it. Isn't the meaning obvious enough?

Overjoyed, he immediately asked:

"We absolutely cannot let the things we build go to waste."

"I mean……"

At this point, Old Zhu already knew in his heart that Number One would definitely support him.

"I agree, have someone do it cleanly."

Number One did not hesitate.

What a joke! You think you can just get all that money for free?

That's quite a dream!

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away!"

With a slight upturn of his lips, Old Zhu snorted.

Americans.

If you can do it on the first day of the month, I can do it on the fifteenth.

If you make my life difficult, you won't have an easy time either!

……

The Bab el-Mandeb Strait.

At a port on the coast of a Middle Eastern country, Jibu Maiti looked at the many ships sailing out of the harbor with some confusion.

"With so many armed ships deployed at once, are they going to attack the United States?"

"And Chinese warships also set sail. What are they trying to do?"

These are their country's armed vessels, ever since warships from the Eastern superpower began to stop at their port for resupply.

Their country rarely sends out so many ships anymore!

Moreover, this time it was accompanied by Chinese warships.

In his memory, the last time so many ships were deployed was to monitor the US aircraft carrier fleet.

Will it be the same this time?

……

At the entrance to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, a huge merchant ship is slowly sailing.

In the cabin, Soren was enjoying the sea breeze; the cabin was rather stuffy, which made him quite uncomfortable.

Looking at the seabirds soaring freely in the sky in the distance, he let out a long sigh.

"What's wrong, Sauron? Thinking about your homeland again?"

Norton emerged from the cabin, his hands behind his back, and only when he got close did he pull out a bottle of red wine with a look of surprise.

"I've been wanting it for a while now. Where did you get this?!"

Soren turned around, saw the red wine in front of him, and his face lit up with joy.

“This is produced on my father’s estate. It tastes very good. I brought a few extra bottles with me when I came.”

Norton elegantly poured Soren a glass and teased him, "We'll be in France by the end of the month at the latest. This damn mission is finally almost over!"

"Yes."

As Soren took the wine glass and brought it to his lips, he suddenly regretted it.

"We can't drink alcohol. In case we encounter pirates, we need to stay sober and protect the ITER equipment!"

"Forget about that damn equipment. Look at this vast sea, there aren't any other ships. Where would pirates come from?"

Norton was somewhat annoyed. He waved his hand dramatically and shouted towards the sea, "Hey, Mr. Pirate, we're here!"

"Come find us quickly!!"

After the shouts, the sea remained a vast expanse, unchanged.

Norton was quite pleased with this. He nodded, raised his wine glass slightly, and shrugged, saying, "Soren, we have the protection of a US military base here. We are a UN ship, flying the joint flag of seventeen nations. What pirate would be so foolish as to target us?"

"You're being too sensitive. Maybe you're feeling anxious because you're about to go home?"

"It is indeed exciting to be reunited with family after a long separation."

"Maybe I'm just too anxious."

After hearing Norton's words, Soren realized he might have been overly sensitive, and he smiled slightly:

"Okay, you've convinced me. Let's..."

“What is that???”

Just as he was about to toast Norton, Norton froze in place.

It turned out that several small black dots had suddenly appeared on the distant sea!

"Quick, get the binoculars out!"

Norton dropped what he was holding and immediately found a pair of binoculars.

Upon closer inspection, his expression changed drastically.

"Solo, an unidentified ship is approaching, black flag, it's pirates!"

"Quickly, notify the security personnel!"

After getting a clear look at the other person through the binoculars, Norton's legs went weak.

To my utter surprise, we actually encountered pirates.

How dare these pirates? This is a joint merchant ship of seventeen countries!

Are they really that fearless?

Chapter 47 Should we ask them to make another one?

Norton and Soren never expected that someone would actually dare to rob them in the Middle East.

All the guards on the ship were alerted.

Upon reaching the side of the ship, the chief guard's expression was serious:

"Tell the captain to call for help immediately and see if there are any warships from any country nearby!"

"Captain, yes, the captain replied. There is a Chinese warship fifty nautical miles away!"

The guard's communications officer immediately reported the matter to the captain.

"Quickly, send a distress message immediately!"

"Yes!"
