860 Difficult Choices
"How so?"
Eddington Ross stared at the large screen above him in amazement, muttering to himself, and the tone in his tone was definitely not a sign of peace and tranquility. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Just three minutes ago, when Wang Shizi suddenly shouted for all the reconnaissance ships to retreat immediately, he was very dissatisfied.
Seeing that a stereo detection structure will be completed with the efforts of countless reconnaissance ships, Addington Ross was very excited. After all, this wormhole was discovered by his team first, and if they could figure out how this wormhole was arranged, this feat would not be too perfect.
So when Wang Shizi shouted that sentence, Eldington Ross's first reaction was that Wang Shizi was crazy.
And when Wang Shizi roared out of the wormhole and immediately had a violent abnormal reaction, Addington Rose's first reaction was that their captain was crazy.
Everything seems normal, what will happen to the abnormal reaction? When the itinerary of Expedition 1 was confirmed, they observed the entire Jupiter system for nearly a year, where would there be any anomalous reactions? It's just that the protest of a group of scientists is too thin in the face of Wang Shizi's strength, and the information ordering all the reconnaissance ships to retreat immediately is still released as quickly as possible.
However, what happened next verified Wang Shizi's fierce reaction and made his protest seem so ridiculous.
The sudden energy impact made everyone at the scene speechless.
The real-time image on the virtual screen has been cut off due to the sudden outbreak of the energy storm, but the holographic star map clearly shows that the bright spots representing more than a dozen reconnaissance ships finally disappeared after suddenly approaching the wormhole, and obviously these more than ten reconnaissance ships were "sucked" into the wormhole they found.
For Addington Ross and the scientists at the scene, they still hadn't reacted to what had happened in just a few minutes, and most of the people's eyes were on Wang Shizi, who was standing there with a frown.
Fortunately, Wang Shizi's order was timely, and at the critical moment, more than 100 reconnaissance ships urgently deviated from the course, and only then did they escape. If there was no warning from the mothership, it is estimated that the losses would be several times, or even dozens of times, of what they are now. But what bothered everyone the most was how Wang Shizi suddenly knew that the wormhole would erupt with such a huge amount of energy reaction.
You must know that countless scattered data are directly fed into the Jupiter system model established on the quantum superbrain, and even the quantum superbrain does not warn that the wormhole may suddenly have an energy reaction at some point, let alone give an accurate time. However, Wang Shizi seems to have done it.
Judging from the eagerness and determination shown by Wang Shizi at that time, it was clearly concluded that such an energy room reaction would appear in the wormhole soon, how did he know?
Some people were shocked, some people were puzzled, and the atmosphere at the scene was very depressing. It's just that no one dares to ask Wang Shizi questions at this time, but obviously, Wang Shizi's figure is a little taller and more mysterious in the eyes of these scientists who usually have their eyes above the top.
If it weren't for Wang Shizi's status, perhaps some scientists really wanted to open Wang Shizi's head to see what the mystery was.
"Immediately calculate the loss, calculate the scope of influence of the wormhole energy reaction, assess the danger factor of the lost reconnaissance ship at this time, Expedition No. 1 moved 500,000 kilometers in the direction of the black hole, the mecha troops were assembled, except for the internal affairs army, with the lion formation to find and rescue the lost bat formation reconnaissance ship and escort it back to the ship to rest, the Falcon reconnaissance formation was on standby, and after calculating the impact range and outbreak period of the wormhole energy reaction, the Falcon reconnaissance formation immediately dispatched to reconstruct the three-dimensional detection structure. In addition, calculate the survival probability of the personnel on the missing reconnaissance ship, and if there is a possibility of survival, immediately draw up a rescue plan! Finally, I announce that the Expeditionary No. 1 has entered a state of combat readiness, everyone has stopped taking vacations, all entertainment places in the living area are temporarily closed, all captains and heads of departments will immediately carry out mobilization work, and all posts must be manned 24 hours a day! That's it for now, I'll go up and be quiet first, and report anything I find immediately! ”
A series of orders came from Wang Shizi's mouth one by one, breaking the silence of the scene and making everyone move again.
Even if there are a thousand questions in my mind at this time, no one is silent at this time.
A total of 12 reconnaissance ships were affected by the energy of the wormhole, were "sucked" into the wormhole, disappeared into the existing space, hundreds of people are uncertain about their fate and death, and there are scientists on these reconnaissance ships who went to Jupiter with the ship, which can be said to be a heavy loss.
After all, Expedition No. 1 has not even left the solar system yet, and it has been less than two days since it left Xingyao City, and it has been so badly damaged, Wang Shizi, as the captain, can imagine his mood at this time. Although from the moment they boarded Expedition No. 1, everyone knew in their hearts that this journey could be said to be full of dangers, and even everyone was prepared that they might never return to Earth in this life, but they suffered such a heavy loss in such a short period of time, and everyone's heart was heavy.
This does not bode well.
What's even more aggrieved is that they couldn't predict such a violent energy reaction before, and it's just that they didn't predict it, and what makes people feel even more frustrated is that there is not much to think about rescuing them. In the vast space, even a giant warship like Expedition 1 is just a drop in the ocean, and the earth civilization is humble and pitiful in this vast and boundless space, saying that it is a rescue plan, but everyone feels that these people are more than lucky. After all, it is a wormhole, and except for Expedition One, even the most advanced Ares-class motherships cannot pass through the wormhole alone, mainly because the time is too tight and the design cost is too high.
Of course, the captain's order was still done, and a series of orders just issued by Wang Shizi were immediately conveyed, and the whole ship moved.
There were no idlers on Expedition No. 1, and after the mobilization order was issued, everyone was busy.
More than 100,000 people may seem less important than the base of 110,000 people, but Expedition 1 is an extremely special environment after all, although these more than 110,000 people come from different countries, have different skin colors, and have different beliefs, they are from the same planet after all, and each of them is dependent on each other in isolated space. This is a belief that has been emphasized countless times every day in the five years of training in Xingyao City.
Everyone on the ship is each other's relatives, and it is already a symbol engraved in the minds of everyone on Expedition One, which cannot be erased. Not to mention the loneliness brought about by being in the vast space, which will infinitely magnify this feeling. Without the experience of wandering in the vast space with the belief of leaving the earth, it is impossible to experience this true feeling of sharing honor and disgrace. Or there will be occasional internal conflicts, but when one's relatives and friends are in danger, the thoughts that come out of everyone's minds must be the same as the outside.
The countless huge hatches on the exterior of Expedition 1 opened again, and the Tiger Formation was still responsible for the outer defense of Expedition 1, and the Lion Formation poured out, carefully avoiding the range of wormhole energy explosion, to search for the Bat Formation reconnaissance ship that was hit by the energy and hastily changed its course to avoid a catastrophe.
Although many reconnaissance ships changed their course at critical moments and were not sucked into the wormhole, they received the aftermath of energy, and their coordinate systems, navigation systems, and communication systems were likely to be irreversibly damaged. In this case, all the captains have to do is hover in a relatively safe position, send out a location distress signal, and then sit back and wait for help.
Now the entire Eagle Formation is undertaking such a rescue mission. Of course, those reconnaissance ships that have been "sucked" into the wormhole are not in their consideration. These can only rely on those scientists to calculate the survival probability of these lost warships through data analysis, and find a way to rescue them.
Everyone was holding a string, and the Expeditionary One, a cosmic aircraft carrier that integrates the most advanced technology of the earth's civilization, was running silently and efficiently at high speed.
……
Expedition 1 Command.
Wang Shizi returned to his home on this floor.
After all, it is living in a mothership, and there is no concept of a mansion. As a captain's home, the rooms are relatively larger, all kinds of supplies are more complete, and of course, there is everything you can enjoy on the mothership. Although Wang Shizi himself doesn't care about this, but his family follows him to pursue his dreams, he naturally won't let Yan Xiaoxi and Wang Xinyao be wronged.
The house was very lively, the father-in-law and mother-in-law were chatting with the former US President Ivan Brown, and Yan Xiaoxi was sitting on the sofa watching a classic American drama from the earth, and did not see Wang Xinyao, but at this time she should be asleep in her room. Although it is in the universe, Wang Xinyao still has to accept daily teaching through the virtual network at her age, and the inheritance of knowledge is very important, even on Expedition 1. A complete set of virtual teaching content has also been copied on the ship-accompanying quantum supersuperbrain of Expedition-1, and various teaching materials have been supplemented by scientists on board in real time. This is to prepare the knowledge of the new generation born on the ship of the future.
Unlike the minors on Earth, the next generation on Expedition 1 is destined to take on heavier tasks, and the knowledge and skills they need to master are more detailed.
"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood? Yan Xiaoxi first felt that Wang Shizi's emotions were not normal, after all, it was a blessing for many years, although under normal circumstances, Wang Shizi's expression was definitely not rich, but from some subtle changes in expression, it could also make a sensitive woman feel a little different.
The father-in-law and mother-in-law who were chatting with Ivan Brown also set their eyes on Wang Shizi, who was already a family with a very good relationship, not to mention that this was still on the boat, so naturally there was no need for too much courtesy.
"We found a wormhole channel entrance in the Jupiter system, and when the reconnaissance fleet was dispatched to carry out a detection mission, the wormhole entrance suddenly produced a violent energy reaction, twelve reconnaissance ships were sucked into the wormhole, and more than 130 reconnaissance ships made an emergency turn in critical situations, among which dozens of reconnaissance ships close to the wormhole entrance were disturbed by the energy aftermath and were scattered in the Jupiter system, waiting for rescue. Of course, as long as you are not sucked into the wormhole passage, the danger is not great. Wang Shizi concisely explained what had just happened.
It's no secret.
Basically, when mobilization is carried out, all captains will report on the situation and make everyone aware of the danger of the operation. Of course, you can't hide it if you want to, because of the limited size of the general small reconnaissance ship, its life support system can only carry resources for the survival of everyone on the ship for two months, and if it exceeds two months, it must return to the mothership for replenishment, so for the reconnaissance formation, the upper limit of the cycle of each operation is 50 days.
"So those reconnaissance ships that have been sucked into wormholes can be dangerous?" Yan Xiaoxi keenly grasped the key point in Wang Shizi's words.
Wang Shizi nodded silently.
"Okay, I'll take my leave first, let the king be quiet, you are now the captain of the ship, and the fate of the entire ship is in your hands, you can't mess up in the face of this kind of problem!" Ivan Brown stood up.
Yan Xiaoxi's parents glanced at each other and stood up, "Yes, Shizi, let's not bother you for now!" But whatever you decide, we'll support you unreservedly, and I'm sure the rest of the ship will do the same! ”
……
After the three left, Wang Shizi sat quietly on the sofa, and Yan Xiaoxi was by his side.
"Is there a way to save them?" After being silent for a moment, Yan Xiaoxi suddenly took the initiative to ask.
"Still waiting for the results of further calculations, there are two possibilities, the reconnaissance ship is sucked into the wormhole and destroyed because it cannot withstand the pressure generated by the energy tide in the wormhole, but if the wormhole channel is stable enough, there is also a certain chance that it will be passively and directly teleported to the unknown space on the other side of the wormhole. If it was the former, they would have been killed, and if it was the latter, if they wanted to save them, Expedition One would have to pass through the wormhole! Of course, even if this wormhole channel is stable enough, there is a difference between passive inhalation and active entry, passive inhalation cannot be controlled independently in the channel, and if you encounter space-time turbulence, you may be thrown out by the wormhole at any time, but at least there is hope! ”
"So you're hesitating, if the final result is the latter, do you want to take the whole Expedition One on an adventure to save them?"
Wang Shizi glanced sideways at the empathetic Yan Xiaoxi, nodded silently, and then added: "It's not just Expedition No. 1, considering that this wormhole passage is likely to be opened by an advanced civilization far beyond the earth civilization, we also need to consider whether our earth civilization will be exposed if we travel through the past like this!" ”
"But those scouts have been sucked in! If the level of civilization that created this wormhole is really as powerful as you say, even a few reconnaissance ships can't escape their eyes! Are you right? Yan Xiaoxi said softly. (To be continued.) )
