Stumbled Into An Alien Group Chat To Steal Advanced Technologies - Chapter 38

The next day, 7 am.

Everyone in the Academy of Sciences was busy with their work.

Today was the date for mankind to launch an unmanned probe to make contact with the alien starship.

The plan that had been to launch the probe three days later had been unilaterally violated by one of the countries.

As such, the National Academy of Sciences and NASA decided to launch the unmanned probe ahead of schedule.

The unmanned probe had already been delivered to the designated launch site last night.

There was now only less than two hours before the scheduled launch at 9:00.

In a room at the Academy of Sciences, Professor Eugene was sorting through all the information. He was about to leave with George to go to the observation center in the center of the city.

There was a set of newly assembled detection equipment there that would allow one to watch the HD live broadcast of the unmanned probe making contact with the alien starship.

Professor Eugene glanced at his watch. There were still five minutes left, and the vehicle responsible for sending them was already parked at the square of the Academy of Sciences.

Seeing that George was not out of his room yet, the old professor could only knock on his door.

Thump, thump, thump!

“George, we’re going to leave soon. Are you ready?”

Just as Professor Eugene finished saying this, George’s voice came from inside the room, “One minute!”

Soon, the door opened, and George’s figure appeared in front of Professor Eugene.

“You’re finally out. We’re going to be late!”

George replied with an apologetic gesture and followed Professor Eugene to the elevator.

A few minutes later, the two of them exited the Academy of Sciences. As far as their eyes could see, the square was filled with all kinds of vehicles, most of which were the armored transport vehicle of the military.

George heard the other professors around him complaining about the transport vehicles.

“Damn it, they won’t let us ride on that thing again, right? I still remember how my butt hurt the last time we rode those!”

Last time, the military had sent armored transport vehicles to transport them to the Academy of Sciences, and only Professor George and Eugene had flown over by helicopter.

The other professors and young scholars had all taken the armored transport vehicles, which weren’t designed to be comfortable.

Professor Eugene knew about this. On his wrinkled face, a rarely seen smug smile appeared.

The old professor knew very well that he could take the helicopter because George was his student. Otherwise, he would have had the same treatment as the other professors and would have to take the armored transport vehicle.

While the others were complaining, President Hawking of the Academy of Sciences also walked out of the building.

He was accompanied by a somewhat cute girl.

This attracted the attention of the people present because the girl was President Hawking’s assistant.

One had to know that being able to become the assistant of the President of the National Academy of Sciences meant that the person was an exceptionally outstanding scholar in a certain field.

The girl’s name was Angie. As she followed President Hawking out of the building, her two big eyes searched for a target in the crowd.

Soon, Angie’s gaze locked onto a handsome young man.

When President Hawking turned around, he noticed that Angie was paying attention to someone in the crowd. He smiled and asked, “Angie, are you very interested in George? Do you want me to introduce you to him?”

President Hawking’s words made Angie’s interest grow even more.

It couldn’t be helped. After all, the entire academic world knew George’s name now.

Angie was no exception. She revealed two rows of white teeth as she smiled and said, “President, I will surpass George!”

Seeing Angie clench her small hands into fists as if to display her strength to George who was not far away, President Hawking was quite happy. This was because he knew his student very well. Her IQ was very high, at the same time, she had the strong courage to challenge herself.

Then, President Hawking brought Angie over to Professor Eugene and George. Everyone around them looked over.

“Look at the little girl next to President Hawking. I heard that she used to be a child prodigy!”

“That’s Angie. She solved a very famous problem as soon as she entered high school. When President Hawking found out about it, he immediately exempted her from the entrance exams and made her his student!”

“Angie was indeed outstanding back then, but she was still a little inferior compared to George now!”

“There’s no basis of comparison between the two of them, alright? They’re both in different research directions!”

Amidst the discussions in the crowd, a shy-looking boy actually mustered up the courage to speak up for Angie when he heard someone comparing Angie to George.

This caused the young scholars to immediately shift their discussion to the boy.

“Haha, so you like Angie!”

“I forgot, you’re the same age as Angie!”

The cheerful atmosphere helped ease the nervous atmosphere in the crowd. The many scholars who were nervous temporarily relaxed.

At this moment, President Hawking’s voice sounded.

“Everyone, get ready to board the cars. We’re about to set off!”

Soon, the scholars began to walk towards the parking area. Since they were in the city, there was no need to take the armored transport vehicles to the launch site.

After George came out of the building, he had not spoken a word. He was still calculating complicated mathematical formulas in his mind.

He had not slept for the entire night as he had spent it calculating mathematical formulas to increase the intensity of his brain waves.

Finally, at dawn, George estimated that the utilization rate of his brainwaves had increased to 30%. However, to his surprise, the alien starship’s detection that he had been expecting did not come.

He wasn’t sure what had gone wrong, but after some thinking, George came to a conclusion.

Although his brainwaves had reached 30%, it was very likely that they had not reached the detectable number of the alien starship.

George knew every well that the alien starship might not have the ability to detect brainwaves at all, but he didn’t have a choice.

The only thing he could do now was to continue to increase the intensity of his brainwaves.

After everyone boarded the vehicles, the large convoy left the Academy of Sciences and headed to the launch site of the probe.

As the special guests, George and Professor Eugene would go to the observation center in the city center.

There was still more than an hour before 9 am. George was still trying to increase the intensity of his brainwaves. He would do this until the probe was successfully launched and made contact with the alien starcraft.

The convoy of scholars separated at an intersection. The car that carried George and Professor Eugene headed to the observation center in the center of the city.

After more than ten minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of the observation center.

After George got out of the car, he saw that the observation center was surrounded by armed security personnel. To enter the observation center, one had to go through layers of checks.

However, George and Professor Eugene were exceptions. They entered the observation center directly through a special passage.

Inside was a hall with a wide field of vision. A giant display screen stood in the middle of the hall.

The staff who had entered earlier were busy with their work. A staff who was responsible for receiving them led George and Professor Eugene to their area.

George sat down. His attention was not on the giant screen at all. Instead, he continued to calculate mathematical formulas in his mind.

Time was running out. There was less than half an hour before the launch of the probe. The historic moment when mankind first came into contact with an alien starship was about to arrive..
