Chapter 27 Mysterious Alien Visitor

Originally, behind Tian Shaohui, there was a space window. Through the window, the azure Blue Planet could be seen.

This was also the important content reserved for the live broadcast a few days later.

It allowed one to experience the magnificence of the Blue Planet and the vastness of the universe.

However, at this moment.

Behind that window, there was a huge black ball in synchronous orbit with the space station!

‘What’s that?’

No one knew how the black ball had appeared, but this sudden change stunned everyone who saw it.

And the control center gradually rose to a clamor.

“That seems to be a black ball?”

“Could it be a satellite from another country?”

“I don’t know. It’s possible!”

“Quick, inform Chief Engineer Lu!”

“Tian Shaohui, can you see this ball? Can you describe it?”

Someone seemed to have thought of something and asked quickly.

After all, it was not as clear through the camera as the naked eye.

“I can see that it’s a black ball. It’s very close, and it’s almost the same speed as the space station!” Tian Shaohui’s voice was not as strong as before, and there was a hint of nervousness.

There were many magical things in outer space.

For example, the “wonderful auditory hallucinations” described by the seniors.

However, the black ball in front of him was definitely not among them!

‘What’s that?’

This question appeared in everyone’s mind at this moment.

Some people had a terrifying guess, but they dared not say it!

Finally, the person in charge of the entire space station project, Lu Yuejie, Chief Engineer Lu, rushed over.

At first glance, he saw the black ball in the scene.

Compared to the others who were panicking, he was much calmer. He had to be calm.

“Can the radar on the space station detect that black ball?”

“I’ve already checked. There’s nothing on the radar,” Tian Shaohui reported immediately.

At this moment, the six astronauts on the space station had all taken action.

It could be seen with the naked eye, but there was nothing on the radar?

Everyone in the control center could not help but hold their breath. They did not even dare to say a word. Some of them kept breaking out in cold sweat, and their bodies were trembling

“There’s also a telescope on the space station. Tian Shaohui, go and observe it, and then report immediately!” Chief Engineer Lu spoke again.

“Yes!” Tian Shaohui immediately took action.

The telescope on the space station was actually used to observe far into outer space, but with some adjustments, it could also be used at this moment.

Tian Shaohui’s voice was soon heard.

“It’s a black ball. It looks very smooth on the surface and has a metallic luster. Wait-” He suddenly exclaimed, “That looks like a layer of liquid. I can vaguely see a flow.”

“Are you sure?” Chief Engineer Lu could not sit still anymore.

“I’m sure!” Tian Shaohui replied affirmatively. Despite his mental fortitude, his words were also trembling.

In the control center, there was even more commotion.

“Good heavens!”

The radar could not detect it. There was a metallic luster on the surface, as if there was liquid flowing… All of this seemed to be pointing to a fact.

This was the creation of an intelligent life, and it was definitely not from humans.

This was because human technology could not do all this.

In other words, this was very likely an alien visitor!

Thinking of it this way was simply a reconstruction of his worldview!

This was because humans had just begun exploration into outer space. The so-called aliens represented the absolute unknown. The mere fact that the other party had the ability to reach the Blue Planet meant that their technology had surpassed theirs!

What kind of life did the other party have? Where did it come from? What level of technology had it attained? What did it want to do? Was this black ball some kind of weapon, probe, or messenger?

At this moment, these people felt as if they had suddenly left their familiar home and stepped into the darkness of a forest. Everything was unknown, and there was danger everywhere!

“Quiet!” Chief Engineer Lu shouted, suppressing the noise. Then, he said in a low voice, “Activate the confidentiality procedures. No one is to leave this place or communicate with the outside world. The security department is to maintain order. If the situation changes, inform me immediately!”

With that said, he left in a hurry.

This was no longer something he could handle.

He had to report this!

The people who had stayed in the control center looked at each other. Many of them were pale.

They could not imagine that it was clearly an ordinary day, but such a dream-like change had suddenly occurred. In fact, the entire history of mankind and the future of mankind might undergo a huge change from this day onwards!

At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed.

“It’s moving! It’s moving!”

This person was already a little incoherent, but everyone who looked at the large screen exclaimed.

This was because the black ball, which had been relatively still with the space station, suddenly moved.

The speed was not fast.

However, this movement caused the hearts of countless people to tremble.

Originally, some people still had the fantasy that this black ball might be some unknown natural phenomenon in the universe, or perhaps it was just a special meteorite. However, at this moment, this action, which went against the law of orbit, tore this fantasy into pieces!

This black ball must have engine power!

It must be some kind of technological creation!

Therefore… it was most likely from an alien planet!

The six people in the space station had tense expressions. All of them widened their eyes and stared fixedly at the black ball.

At such a close distance, they did not believe that the black ball had not discovered them. And if it were to attack…

In the vast universe, there was only one outcome waiting for them.

The people on the ground were also nervous!

If that black ball had attacked the space station, it meant that this alien visitor had ill intentions toward humans! At least, it had not come with the so-called peace!

However, under everyone’s nervous gaze, the black ball did not approach the space station or launch any attacks. Instead, it only circled around slowly and left the orbit directly. It flew in a certain direction and left the observation range of the space station.

This made many people heave a sigh of relief.

It was only then that the six astronauts in the space station suddenly realized that their bodies were drenched in sweat.

The youngest, Tian Shaohui, clenched his fists tightly.

He was not afraid of death.

As an astronaut, as the vanguard of the country and of human exploration of the universe, he had originally put life and death on the line.

However, he was indeed afraid just now. He was afraid that the mysterious and unknown alien visitor had ill intentions toward humans.

But no matter what, from this moment on, the outer space, which he originally had infinite yearning for, had a shadow cast over it, although it remained mysterious and extraordinary to him.
