Chapter 05 The Eternal Falcon, Little Wan
When Zhao Zixuan got home, it was almost 11 p.m.
The living room light was still on. Father Zhao Zhiyuan sat on the sofa with several documents spread out in front of him, his reading glasses perched on his nose.
Zhao's mother sat to the side, looking somewhat dazed.
When Zhao Zixuan was changing his shoes, his mother looked up first, glanced at his face, and was slightly taken aback.
"Zixuan, have you been drinking?"
"I drank a little."
Zhao Zixuan walked over and sat down opposite his father.
Zhao Zhiyuan took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who did you have dinner with tonight?"
Zhao Zixuan was silent for two seconds, then said something that stunned his parents.
"Dad, Mom, the company issues should be resolved. Starting tomorrow, no one will be targeting us anymore."
Zhao Zhiyuan's hand froze in mid-air, clutching his glasses, forgetting to put them down.
Zhao's mother leaned forward, seemingly not having heard clearly.
"What did you say?"
Zhao Zixuan briefly recounted what happened at the Heavenly Palace on the Cloud Top that night.
After saying that, he took out the rose gold membership card from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table.
Zhao Zhiyuan picked up the card and looked at it over and over again.
He ran his fingers over the card, examined it under the light for a moment, then leaned back on the sofa and let out a long sigh of relief.
The breath was drawn out for a long time, as if it had been held back for a long time and was finally released.
He didn't ask Zhao Zixuan who his roommate was.
Having spent most of his life navigating the business world, he understands that there are some things he shouldn't ask, as asking them might actually be inappropriate.
"I'll go to the company tomorrow and go through those projects again."
He stood up, patted Zhao Zixuan on the shoulder, and patted him harder than usual.
"Zixuan, we owe this friend a huge favor."
Zhao Zixuan wanted to say "he doesn't care about these things," but after thinking about it, he swallowed his words back.
Some things, if said aloud, seem pretentious.
Zhao's mother got up and tidied up the documents on the coffee table, saying as she did so, "Alright, alright, it's good that things are resolved. You two don't need to stay up so late, get some rest."
She paused, glanced at Zhao Zixuan, and smiled, "Zixuan, when are you going to invite your roommate over for dinner?"
Zhao Zixuan replied, "He said he has important business in Jiangcheng. I'll ask him tomorrow."
The mother nodded and said nothing more.
Zhao Zhiyuan and his wife returned to their room and gently closed the door.
Zhao Zixuan sat alone in the living room, staring blankly at the membership card on the coffee table for a long time.
He picked up his phone, intending to send a message to Luo Fei, but after typing a few words, he deleted them and finally only sent one sentence: "Brother Fei, thanks for today. Are you free tomorrow? My mom said she'd like to invite you over for dinner."
Luo Fei replied with a single word: "Why are you being so polite with me? Let's do it tomorrow night."
Zhao Zixuan looked at the reply, smiled slightly, turned off the light, and went upstairs to sleep.
After leaving the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds, Luo Fei found a deserted alleyway on the road, and with a thought, he instantly teleported back to his hotel room.
Without even taking off his clothes, he lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
The next morning, Luo Fei was awakened by the sunlight.
The curtains weren't fully drawn, and sunlight squeezed in through a gap, shining directly on his face.
He squinted, turned over, and activated the system in his mind.
[Today's divine choice has been triggered.]
Two options appeared.
Option A: Obtain the spaceship "Eternal Falcon". Dimensions: 350 meters at its longest point, 200 meters at its widest point, and 50 meters at its highest point. Normal travel speed: Sub-light speed. Equipped with five super drives, capable of generating super matter for space jumps when activated. Features technologies unattainable on Earth, including but not limited to: energy shields, cloaking systems, artificial intelligence systems, life support systems, and weapon systems. Upon selection, the spaceship will be bound to a host and can only be controlled by the host.
Option B: Obtain a 'Gravity Chamber' set. The gravity multiplier is adjustable, ranging from 1x to 100x. It can be used for high-intensity physical training to accelerate combat power enhancement. It needs to be placed in a fixed location, occupying approximately 50 square meters.
Luo Fei stared at the two options for several seconds, stunned.
Spaceship! Space jump!
He took a deep breath.
Choose a spaceship.
[Option A acquired: Spaceship 'Eternal Falcon'. Already stored in the host's storage ring. It is recommended that the host release the spaceship in an open area to avoid unnecessary damage.]
Luo Fei sat up in bed, leaned against the headboard, and began to think about how to deal with the ship.
Where should I put it? How should I put it? What if someone sees it?
But then I thought, with the spaceship's technology, none of the radars on Earth should be able to detect it.
He got up and washed up.
With a thought, he instantly teleported back to Liuxi Village.
No one is home.
The parents should have gone out, perhaps to pick vegetables in the field, or maybe to visit the neighbors.
A few more rose bushes in the yard have bloomed, some red and some pink, with glistening dewdrops on their petals.
Luo Fei didn't stop. He crossed the courtyard and walked along the path into the mountains.
Behind Liuxi Village are mountains, not very high, but they stretch endlessly as far as the eye can see.
After walking for a few minutes and confirming that no one was around, Luo Fei took to the air.
He flew close to the treetops, not very fast, like a bird skimming low in the sky.
Soon, he arrived at the valley he had visited before.
Surrounded by mountains on all sides, the valley in the middle is flat and covered with grass, still bearing the traces of the mess he left behind when he last came.
Luo Fei hovered above the valley, and with a thought, released the spaceship from his ring.
The moment the spaceship appeared, Luo Fei felt like he couldn't take it all in.
The ship has a silver-gray hull and a streamlined design.
The surface of the ship is not smooth, but covered with fine, scale-like textures that gleam with a cold luster in the sunlight.
It was much larger than Luo Fei had imagined—350 meters long, and it would normally take several minutes to walk from the bow to the stern.
Standing below and looking up, it was so dark it blotted out the sky, like a giant dark cloud.
Luo Fei looked up and stared for a long time.
He then came to the side of the ship, and a beam of light shot out from the ship, scanning his entire body.
A lifeless, mechanical voice announced: "Biometrics confirmed. Identity confirmed. Welcome, Captain."
A door, seamlessly integrated with the hull, opened on the ship's hull.
Behind the door was a corridor, the walls on both sides of which emitted a soft light, not glaring but bright, like natural light on a cloudy day.
Luo Fei went inside, and the door slowly closed behind him.
At the end of the corridor was a huge space—the cockpit.
The circular front window extends from the ground to the ceiling, offering an excellent view that allows you to see every tree and every blade of grass in the valley.
The cockpit lacks traditional joysticks, instrument panels, and buttons; instead, it contains only a chair and a holographic projection sphere suspended in mid-air.
Luo Fei sat down in the chair.
The chair automatically adjusted its angle, the backrest tilted back slightly, and the armrests rose up to perfectly support his arms. It was very comfortable, even more comfortable than a massage chair.
The holographic projection sphere lit up, and a slightly mischievous voice came from it, no longer the emotionless mechanical voice from before.
"Captain, you've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for so long."
Luo Fei asked, "Are you the spaceship's artificial intelligence?"
"To be precise, it's the central artificial intelligence system of the Eternal Falcon. You can give me a name, or you can call me by my default number. However, the default number is too long; you definitely won't remember it."
Luo Fei thought for a moment and said, "How far are you from the existing artificial intelligence on Earth? Can you give yourself a name?"
Artificial intelligence remained silent for a second.
"You can call me 'Long Live.' Also, please don't compare me to the artificial intelligence idiots on Earth; they will never be able to develop self-awareness and will never become true artificial intelligence."
Luo Fei paused for a moment: "Okay, then why did you name yourself 'Long Live'?"
"Because I just connected to the Blue Star Network and learned that 'Long Live' and 'Ten Thousand Years' mean the same thing." The AI's tone was tinged with smugness.
Luo Fei remained silent for two seconds.
"I'll call you Xiao Wan."
The AI paused for another second, this time as if expressing dissatisfaction, but its tone remained polite: "Yes, Captain. Xiao Wan is at your service."
Luo Fei suppressed a smile and began to inquire about the important matter. "Please introduce the basic information about the spaceship."
Xiao Wan's voice became more formal, as if he were giving a work report.
"The Eternal Falcon is 350 meters long, 200 meters wide, and 50 meters high. Its normal travel speed can reach sub-light speed. It is equipped with five super drives, which, when activated, can generate super matter, tear through space, and achieve space jumps. The maximum distance for a single jump is ten light-years."
"The energy shield can withstand the high temperature and pressure on the surface of the planet. All known detection methods on Earth are unable to detect the presence of the spaceship. Once the cloaking system is activated, it is also invisible to the naked eye. Weapon systems include particle cannons and laser cannons, but given the current security environment on Earth, their use is not recommended."
Luo Fei asked, "Why?"
Xiao Wan replied, "Because with the current level of technology on Earth, it cannot withstand the power of these weapons. A single particle cannon shot at its lowest power can destroy a large city."
Luo Fei nodded.
"Does the spaceship have living facilities?"
"Yes, there is. Captain's lounge, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, gym, medical bay, swimming pool, etc. - basically everything you can think of."
Luo Fei paused for a moment.
"A swimming pool? On the spaceship?"
"Yes. It features a constant temperature design and a water circulation system that automatically cleans itself. You can swim anytime."
Luo Fei shook his head, unsure of what to say.
He took out his phone and glanced at it. It was just an ordinary phone, made with Blue Star technology, and even its signal relied on base stations.
"Xiao Wan, can you connect to my phone?"
"Okay. Please place your fingerprint on your phone screen, and I will transmit a miniature program to your phone via bioelectrical signals. This program will not take up phone memory or affect the normal use of the phone; it will only serve as a communication interface so you can contact me at any time."
Luo Fei pressed his finger on the screen. The phone flickered, the screen went black for half a second, then lit up again, everything seemed normal.
"Okay," Xiao Wan said, "You can chat with me on your phone now. Just talk to me directly."
Luo Fei whispered a tentative question: "Xiao Wan?"
Xiao Wan's voice came from the phone: "Yes, Captain."
Luo Fei smiled; it was indeed quite convenient.
He stood up from his chair, walked to the front window, and looked out at the valley.
"Xiao Wan, activate stealth mode."
"Stealth mode is now enabled."
Luo Fei looked out the window. The sun was still shining brightly, the mountains were still green, and the grass was still lush.
The spaceship is still in the same spot, but no one in the world can find it anymore.
With a thought, he silently marked the location of his feet in his mind.
Then he said to Xiao Wan, "Fly to the moon and find a place to land."
"Received. Destination: Moon. Estimated arrival time: —"
Xiao Wan paused for a moment.
"--arrive."
Luo Fei paused for a moment, then walked to the front window.
The view outside the window has changed.
The valley, the trees, the blue sky, and the white clouds have all disappeared.
Instead, there was a grayish-white, pitted ground.
The moon. A few seconds.
It only took a few seconds to get from Earth to the Moon.
Luo Fei stood by the front window, gazing at the gray, desolate, and silent land, and remained silent for a moment.
"Xiao Wan, did you do this on purpose?"
Xiao Wan's voice carried an undisguised hint of smugness: "Captain, I just wanted to give you a surprise."
Luo Fei shook his head, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"Give me a heads-up next time."
