Chapter 586: Asteroid
"Time slows down when it is close to the black hole, it becomes very slow, relatively speaking, a day or a year here will become a moment outside, so the signal we send will be compressed to the original length of thousands, tens of thousands or even millions, what I just shouted, if the orbital base station receives it, it will become a murmur of less than a thousandth of a second, and it will not be recognized at all, this is the principle of timeline interference. Lin Bingxuan patiently explained to Park Shin-ae.
"You said the opposite, time slows down when it is close to the black hole, it becomes very slow, relatively speaking, a moment here will become a day or a year outside! So the signal we send will be amplified to the original length of thousands, tens of thousands, or even millions of times, and if you just shouted, if the orbital base station receives it, it will become a faint murmur that lasts for a year, or even decades, centuries, or thousands of years, and it will still not be recognized. Gu Chengan corrected Lin Bingxuan.
"It was indeed me who was wrong. Lin Bingxuan blushed a little.
"But when we jumped out, the location of our mission, the area where their sleeping pod floated, was obviously out of the interference! Why did we come here when we woke up for a meal?" Roger was lost in thought.
"I found the flight record, and it was the master of the spacecraft who changed the itinerary. Shen Jiayi opened her mouth and said to everyone.
"Why did the mastermind change the itinerary?" Roger walked over to Shen Jiayi's workbench.
"The main brain received an instruction from an unknown source and guided the course to change. This command has the highest authority. Shen Jiayi pointed to the voyage record and said to Roger.
"Could it be that the light brain gave the order directly, and the light brain actually noticed our real ship?" Roger had a strange look on his face, but now in this place far from the banking system, it was impossible for other authorities to change their course.
"I've figured out our route. The destination is this small galaxy in front of us. Gu Chengan called Roger over, and at the same time, he placed the three-dimensional image on the desktop in the middle of the main control room again.
A small galaxy appears in a three-dimensional video, with a star in the center, and a planet rapidly revolving around the star, then ...... There is only one planet in the entire galaxy.
"This galaxy is being pulled past by the Gemini star system, a hundred years or so. Will fall into the Gemini system and be torn to pieces. Gu Chengan said to Roger.
"It must have been a star captured by the black hole when it escaped from a galaxy, and if the black hole doesn't meet a white dwarf, it's too far away from the black hole. It's not going to be torn in, but it's a pity that the black hole suddenly stopped......" Lin Bingxuan looked at the galaxy and shook his head with some regret, as if the star was like a living lamb, and the black hole was a ruthless predator.
"Why did the light brain forcibly change our course and let us go to that galaxy?" asked Gu Cheng'an.
"I received a signal. Sent from that planet. Lin Bingxuan kept adjusting the communication device. A faint signal is being recorded.
"What kind of signal?" Roger leaned over to Lin Bingxuan's screen again.
"The single planetary system is closer to the Gemini system, and we are out of sync with their time, because of the interference of the timeline, the signal has to be recorded for at least an hour to two hours, and then it can be suppressed to figure out what the signal is. Lin Bingxuan said to Roger.
"If we speed up, the recording time should be shortened a lot, right?" Roger confirmed with Lin Bingxuan.
"That's for sure. Lin Bingxuan nodded.
"Li Luo, how is the engine of the spaceship?" Roger asked Li Luo.
"The main engine is fully charged, and the jump engine is 63 percent fully charged. Li Luo reported to Roger.
"The speed has increased to 100 percent. Speed up to that asteroid system, and I'll see what the hell is there!" Roger commanded Li Luo.
"Okay! The main engine starts...... From 30 percent to 100 percent. Forty percent...... Fifty percent ......"
"Eighty percent...... Ninety percent...... Speed up!" Li Luo reported to Roger.
"Bingxuan, how is your progress there?" asked Lin Bingxuan.
"Time has been cut in half, and we're getting even shorter, and we're accelerating to fit the timeline of the asteroid system. Lin Bingxuan replied to Roger.
"Okay, report back to me as soon as the signal comes out. Roger explained to Lin Bingxuan.
"No problem. Lin Bingxuan nodded.
Meng Jian and the others have been standing in the main control room and watching Roger and the others busy, because they are not familiar with the instruments of future science and technology, they can't get involved at all, and they lack astronomical knowledge, and the conversation between them can only understand a rough idea.
Basically, the spaceship that came to their rescue, after jumping out of orbit and putting their hibernation capsule into the spaceship, the spaceship was authorized by the light brain and automatically sailed to a distant asteroid system, entering a twin system composed of black holes and white dwarfs, and lost contact with the outside world due to timeline interference.
Now the ship was heading towards the asteroid system at full speed, and it was thought of figuring out the real reason why the Light Brain had let them go to that asteroid system.
For Meng Jian and his party, they can only wait for now.
"This spaceship is going back to the banking system, and when it completes its mission and returns to orbit, won't we also be brought back to the banking system by it?
"We'll have to follow them for now. Meng Jian shook his head, before he got in touch with Gu Ling, he didn't know where he should go now and what to do.
"The signal is parsed! It should be it! It's all repeated!" Ten minutes later, Lin Bingxuan happily announced it to everyone.
"What's the content?" Roger hurriedly walked over and asked Lin Bingxuan.
"It's a distress signal, wait, I'll deal with it again and parse it a little more clearly. Lin Bingxuan continued to adjust some parameters, and after a while, a voice gradually became clear, first in Chinese and then in English.
"Anyone? Help! Help!"
“SOMEBODYHERE?MAYDAY!MAYDAY!”
"There are actually humans on that planet?" Roger, Gu Chengan and the others showed incredible expressions.
Meng Jian and the others were very excited, this voice was obviously made by Lin Jing! From the voice, it could be heard that she was very scared and desperate.
"She's our companion!Can we talk to her?" Meng Jian rushed over and asked Lin Bingxuan.
"No, the signal she's sending is one-way, and with timeline interference, we can't communicate with her. Lin Bingxuan shook her head.
Sixty-three years have passed, and the signal may just be a recording she left behind. Roger spoke to Meng Jian with some sympathy.
"No, our sixty-three years are measured outside the interference range of the Gemini timeline, this galaxy is very close to the Gemini, the time flow on it is very slow, our sixty-three years may only be a few minutes in this asteroid system! Sister Lin, she is still alive!" Park Shin Ai said loudly.
"There is this possibility, your spaceship lost power, and was originally going to crash into a black hole, but it was pulled by this asteroid system halfway, and finally the spacecraft landed on that planet, and then the timeline, she should have just landed on that planet, and we rushed over. If we had rushed over as much as we could, we would have been able to get her up. Lin Bingxuan analyzed.
"How long will it take for us to fly over?" Meng Jian asked Lin Bingxuan.
"About seven or eight hours. Lin Bingxuan made a preliminary calculation.
"We can't go there to save people, we have to go back and leave the Gemini immediately. Gu Chengan suddenly mentioned it to Roger.
"What's wrong?" Lin Bingxuan asked Gu Chengan.
"The asteroid system is falling towards the Gemini faster than we expected, and when the black hole and the white dwarf meet, the momentum of the white dwarf is greater than that of the black hole, so the Gemini is approaching the direction of the asteroid system, and after seven or eight hours, the gravitational value may reach the limit, and after we pass, we will not have enough power to break away from the strong gravitational pull of the Gemini galaxy, and will eventually be pulled into pieces like this asteroid system. Gu Chengan said to Roger.
"The light brain's instruction is to let us go to the asteroid system, what should we do now?" Roger asked Gu Cheng'an.
"Because of the interference of the twin galaxies, I can now block the control of the spacecraft from the hardware and return home by manually operating it. Gu Chengan said to Roger.
"Your mission is to save people, and you must save everyone!" Meng Jian felt that the situation was not good, so he said loudly to Roger.
"That was also to ensure the safety of the ship and ourselves. Roger clearly didn't want to take that risk.
"What if I say we have to save people?" Meng Jian walked over to Roger, and at the same time, Efutia, Wang Yan, and Black Eve also approached the others.
It was impossible for him to let Lin Jing go, you must know that Lin Jing stayed on the spaceship for them, and now that he knows her whereabouts, he will save her no matter what.
"If you dare to mess around, you will be burned to ashes. Roger opened his mouth to speak, and something that looked like a laser emitter suddenly appeared on the walls and ceiling of the main control room, and it automatically locked Meng Jian and the others. (To be continued......)
