After the two units drove and prepared for the launch, the trainees finally arrived at the launch site in the center of the launch site in the northern capital to wait for the launch.

After thousands of years, human science and technology can finally rely on the earth environment to survive and move towards the beautiful space, but this step is not as simple as simply flying into the sky.

Accompanying human life can even be said to be a necessary part of human life, gravitational attraction is the biggest obstacle for human beings to take the first step at this time, as if the great earth deliberately tested human beings. Under the constraints of the Earth's gravity, the pace of human beings has been stopped, and even if they go into space, only a very small number of people have taken advantage of methods that are impossible to popularize, and human beings urgently need better, safer, and cheaper ways to launch.

Finally, after more than 100 years of facing the examination questions given by the earth to human beings, the wisdom of infinite possibilities of human beings finally revealed its power again, and the reverse downward curve launcher came into being, which became the golden key for human beings to open the first door on the road to the sea of stars, with the help of parallel acceleration to reduce the reverse force of gravity, and after the speed was increased to a certain extent, it broke through the atmosphere with the help of the reverse downward falling curve catapult trajectory.

This device, known as the "atmospheric springboard", directly guided the feasibility of human space migration, and similarly, also expanded the scope of human exploration to space in a real sense, and since then space construction has officially entered industrialization, mass production, and programming.

The launch site built in the northern capital is a facility that uses this kind of spacecraft to launch spacecraft out of space, and the huge and towering orbit can still be clearly seen more than ten kilometers away from the facility.

Now Dafeng and his party are standing at the beginning of this huge launch orbit, after a whole day of weightlessness adaptation training, because the time is too tight, so it can only be carried out for one day. Dafeng and the others finally came to the shuttle that was about to take them out of the shackles of the earth early this morning.

But Dafeng did not stand with the other students, but was pulled away by Ivan with Li Kunxi.

Ivan pulled Li Kunxi and Dafeng into a room on the shuttle with bulges and handrails on the wall, stretched out his hand and handed Dafeng and Li Kunxi two pale yellow crystal cards and said, "Well, this is the room prepared for the two of you, it's not bad, it will take us about a day to get to Ze Fanteov, the shuttle is not a yacht, so you can't be allowed to move at will." ”

Dafeng nodded, Dafeng was very sure that the space of this shuttle was not very sufficient, and it was a question whether it could fit all the students.

At this time, Li Kunxi said suspiciously: "Brother Ivan, I found that the number of people standing in front of the shuttle is a bit small, not even one-third of the school gate that day." ”

Ivan smiled and said: "You are asking those who are gone, don't worry, we are not machines, some people's bodies can not adapt to the weightless environment in a day, we will ban them from participating in this military training." ”

Li Kunxi exclaimed: "Then they were eliminated like this?"

Ivan shook his head: "No, no, no, how come, they will directly enter the second stage of training, which is the ground part, however, the amount of training they get next determines that they can't meet the standard in the short term, so they basically lose the right to participate in the exchange meeting after three months, unless some special genius appears." ”

Li Kunxi breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh. So that's the case.,Wouldn't it be too strict.,Yesterday it almost killed me.。 ”

Ivan twitched his eyebrows: "Too strict? You just met the standard in training yesterday! If you don't meet the standard, I'll take you with you!"

Li Kunxi hurriedly took a step back and exclaimed, "What, what?

Ivan spread his hands and said with a non-existent expression: "What I want to teach is not the kind of waste, and besides, the best way to adapt to weightlessness is to be in weightlessness, don't you?"

Li Kunxi suddenly felt that his future life would be very dark.

Dafeng didn't know when he was sitting on the safety seat, and when he heard Ivan call himself, Dafeng turned his head to look at Ivan: "I don't feel it, although the feeling of weightlessness is quite wonderful, but there is always a ······ It's weird, as if I can't exert my strength. ”

Ivan nodded and said, "Well, although your body is not affected by the weightless environment at all, if you suddenly go to the weightless environment, the sensory impact is still not small, and you can only get used to it slowly." ”

Li Kunxi protested at this time: "Why is Dafeng's treatment so good." ”

Ivan said without looking back: "If you are as good as Dafeng, I will save too much to say." Hearing Ivan say this, Li Kunxi immediately wilted.

At this time, Dafeng pointed to a screen on the left side of the car seat and said, "What is this?"

Ivan walked to the safety seat opposite Dafeng and stretched out his hand to turn on the switch of the screen, and then said: "This shuttle is civilian, because we in the military have no right to use it, so there are a lot of unnecessary things on the shuttle, such as this camera and screen used to shoot the scene outside the shuttle." ”

Dafeng looked at Ivan and said, "So this thing is looking at the outside scene, but why doesn't there come out?" ”

Ivan said with a smile: "Of course, this kind of camera will only be released from the shuttle shell after the shuttle is out of the atmosphere, otherwise it will be burned out when it hits the atmosphere." ”

Dafeng nodded clearly, and then Ivan pointed to the entire safety seat fixed in the room and said: "Don't move when you hear a sound, fasten the seat belt and sit on this seat well, this seat has an automatic horizontal function, and you can open the seat belt when you feel the gravity becomes smaller, both of you were trained in weightlessness yesterday, you should know what you can do and what you can't do." ”

Dafeng nodded: "Yes." Li Kunxi pouted and said, "Cut, I've been talking all day yesterday, big brother, you're so verbose." ”

Ivan's expression froze, and then he said: "Okay, just remember, you can move around the shuttle after you get to space, but remember not to go where you are not allowed to go." ”

Dafeng smiled and said, "Well, I definitely won't go, Brother Ivan, you can rest assured." ”

Ivan was about to say something, but suddenly the walkie-talkie on Ivan's left shoulder sounded: "Where is Captain Ivan? ”

Ivan waved his hand to Dafeng and Li Kunxi, then pressed the button on the walkie-talkie and said, "This is Ivan, let's go up." ”

After saying that, Ivan said as he walked to the door: "Remember my words, I'll go up first, you two stay here." After speaking, without waiting for Dafeng Li Kunxi to reply, he directly closed the door of the room.

It is noted here that because it is a spaceship that leads to a weightless environment, all the doors and windows in its interior decoration are all designed with closed liquid rail push-pull to avoid accidents.

Li Kunxi sat on the safety seat and fastened his seat belt, Dafeng saw that after Li Kunxi sat down, he took out the crossbow from the ship's space, Li Kunxi broke out in a cold sweat again, and said: "Big... Dafeng: I didn't do anything bad, did I?"

Dafeng looked up at Li Kunxi suspiciously and said, "No." What's wrong?"

Li Kunxi pointed to the cross crossbow in Dafeng's hand with a bitter look and said, "Then what are you doing with this, scaring me." ”

Dafeng pursed his lips, and then said, "Who wants to scare you, I just haven't prepared my equipment for a long time, and now I'm just bored and ready by the way." ”

Li Kunxi said suspiciously: "There will be a huge shock for a while, are you sure it's okay?"

Dafeng took off the magazine of the crossbow in his hand and put it beside him, aimed the crossbow at Li Kunxi, stared at the crossbow's card slot tightly with big coffee-colored eyes, and took out a snow-white hand towel from the ship's space again, wiped it carefully against the crossbow's card slot, and said at the same time: "Don't worry, it will definitely not hit your head." ”

Li Kunxi felt that his whole person was not good, so he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Then, you must hold on tightly, don't let go." Don't let dangerous things come at me!"

Dafeng didn't pay attention to Li Kunxi, but continued to wipe the crossbow, when suddenly the whole seat began to vibrate, no, the whole room began to shake.

Dafeng stopped wiping his hand and looked up at Li Kunxi, who also looked at Dafeng nervously.

Suddenly, Dafeng felt that his body automatically leaned towards the seat behind him, and the strength became stronger and stronger, on the other hand, Li Kunxi on the other side wanted to be tied to the seat by the seat belt, and the seat belt was strangled in front of Li Kunxi, slightly trapped in Li Kunxi's body.

Dafeng knows that this is the shuttle is starting to accelerate, because it is limited by the length of the track, so the shuttle must use a relatively high acceleration to increase its horizontal speed, so that it will have a relatively good acceleration on the curved flat climbing track to get rid of the gravitational falling force.

After advancing for nearly a minute, Dafeng suddenly felt his gravity and wanted to increase, but it was not obvious to him, but on the other hand, Li Kunxi had already felt a little dizzy when he wanted to.

Dafeng hurriedly said, "Kun Xisang, are you okay?" ”

Li Kunxi nodded slightly and said, "It's not a big problem, it's just that I feel a little swollen under my feet, and my head is a little insufficient in blood supply." ”

Dafeng nodded slightly, this belongs to the normal condition of the human body when accelerating, although his own thoughts did not happen like this, but Dafeng still listened and memorized it very carefully.

At this time, the circular ring that fixed the safety seat began to rotate, and Dafeng clearly sensed the change in the direction of gravity.

Dafeng was surprised in his heart: can this minimize the feeling of increased gravity due to the ascent speed?

However, surprised to be surprised, Dafeng still lightly picked up the crossbow in his hand and wiped it gently.

Dafeng finally wiped the crossbow and put it back into the ship's space. Then, Dafeng reached out and took the magazine that he had placed beside him before, took out the arrows inside one by one, and then began to wipe them carefully. Just wiped half of the arrows, Dafeng didn't know how long it had been, but Dafeng felt that the gravity on his body had gradually decreased little by little, and after a while, after Dafeng finished wiping another arrow, Dafeng let go of the arrow in his hand, and the arrow did not fall down on the chair, but stopped in mid-air.

At this time, Dafeng was very sure that the shuttle had left the atmosphere. The seat behind him also slowly changed back to the state before departure, and then Dafeng saw that the screen opened by Ivan suddenly lit up, and then Ivan's image appeared on the screen, and he saw Ivan smile inexplicably and said: "Okay, recruits, welcome to the sea of stars." Here you will be conducting a month-long paramilitary training, remember that from now on you have the right to freedom on this shuttle for the time being, but once we reach the destination, it is up to you whether you can pass the guò test or not. Good luck. ”

Li Kunxi didn't know when to sit up, looked at Dafeng and said, "Have we left the atmosphere?"

Dafeng nodded: "Yes, if there is no accident, there should be no mistake." ”

At this time, the image of Ivan displayed on the screen was no longer known for some time, and was replaced by an image of the Earth apparently taken from space.

Dafeng said in surprise: "Ah, it's so beautiful, is this the earth we live on?"

Li Kunxi was also deeply amazed by the masterpiece of nature, and said in a daze: "Indeed, it is very spectacular and beautiful." ”

At this moment the door opened, and Ivan pushed it and floated in. When he saw an ancient object called an arrow floating in the air, he was stunned for a moment, then grabbed one of the arrows, which could be said to be almost spotless, and said, "Ah, you two can't be arguing, right?" This thing should be Dafeng's. ”

Dafeng looked at Ivan suspiciously and said, "No, that one is indeed mine." Ah, let go, I'm wiping it in vain. ”

Hearing Dafeng's words, Ivan hurriedly let go of the arrow in his hand, and clearly saw a huge handprint printed on the arrow, and immediately blushed, and said, "Eh, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention." At the same time, he looked at his hands and said in his heart: "It's obviously not dirty, how can it be so obvious." ”

Dafeng jumped lightly in front of Ivan, gently wrapped the arrow with a hand towel, and then wiped it.

Seeing Dafeng's serious expression as he wiped the arrows, Ivan inexplicably thought of a sentence said by a general in ancient times: "There is no true warrior who does not take care of his weapon, because the weapon is their life." ”

At this time, Li Kunxi said: "Now we should be in space now." ”

Ivan turned his head to look at Li Kunxi and said, "In low-earth orbit to be exact." Specifically, we should be able to reach the Ze Vantoff space station by this time tomorrow. ”

Li Kunxi said suspiciously: "What kind of place is this Ze Fanteof space station, why have you never heard of it?" ”

Ivan smiled and said: "Of course you won't hear of it, the storage of this space station was a military secret before, but now the relationship between the KPL and us has entered the honeymoon period, so the role of this space station has changed, and now it is used as a forward platform for friendly exchanges." The main channel for trade and communication between the KPL and us is through this space station, but now this space station is not officially open to civilian use. ”

Li Kunxi said, "Oh, it turns out that it will open soon, right?"

Ivan said with a smile: "Although this is the case, the military facilities above are not so quickly withdrawn, and the actual opening time must be after the demolition or removal of 80% of the military facilities above, and the approximate time should be a year later." ”

Dafeng said suspiciously: "Then isn't it still a military base type place now?"

Ivan wanted to reach out and touch Dafeng's head, but halfway through, he suddenly thought about something, and then froze, maintained an awkward posture and said, "Yes, otherwise how can I give you military training." My requirements are very strict. ”

Dafeng said as he loaded the arrow into the magazine, "It's really nice to feel like this whole person is fluttering, I think I can go around on the shuttle." ”

Ivan nodded: "Yes, now is estimated to be the only time you have such free time in a month, hurry up and grasp it, I still have something to do, go first." With that, he turned around and floated out against the bulge on the wall.

Dafeng finally understood why there were so many handrails and tie rods on this ship, it turned out to be prepared for ease of movement in a weightless state.

At this time, Li Kunxi looked at Dafeng and said, "Dafeng, let's go and see if Wang Ruifeng and they are on the boat." I'm honestly worried about them. ”

Dafeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, there's nothing going on anyway." After saying that, the two of them left the room with the handrail on the wall, and Li Kunxi used the pale yellow crystal given by Ivan to stick it on the recognizer inside the wall on the right, and then heard a "click", and the door locked by itself.

At this time, Dafeng and Li Kunxi suddenly encountered a problem, they didn't know where the others were, let alone how to go.

Dafeng frowned and said, "Anyway, there is only one aisle, let's go along the side first, anyway, the shuttle is not big."

Li Kunxi sighed and said, "Okay, that's the only way." ”

Meanwhile, in a remote courtyard on the Ze Vanteoff space station, stood a dark-skinned man with a beard in a green military uniform.

At this time, I heard the sound of "clicking" the door lock opening from the entrance of the courtyard, a young man with delicate skin and blond hair and blue eyes, and a big man with a beard immediately stood up straight and saluted with his left hand on Pingju and said, "Young Master." ”

The young man said, "Are you ready for everything you have prepared?"

The bearded man laughed and said, "Of course, let's do something, you can rest assured, it's already done properly." Just wait for the fish to take the bait. ”······
