847 Entering the City (B)

In the midst of everyone's talk, soon the hovercar started to start and took everyone in the car to the quarantine area. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

A complete blood sample was left for rapid screening, and after ultraviolet and nano disinfection, he changed into the uniform clothes provided by the Star Group, and then according to their respective number plates, under the guidance of the service robot, they boarded the ladder to Xingyao City.

The entire ladder station is running at full capacity, and it basically fills up one cabin and starts immediately. By the time Xiao Yan found the few people who had just reunited on the ladder and found a seat, the ladder had already started.

"Good afternoon, passengers, it's 5:48 p.m. Spanish time, the time of this ladder is 95 minutes Earth time, and the estimated arrival time at Star Yao City is 7:23 p.m. Spanish time. The ladder accelerates up to 1.6 g, so you'll feel overweight for the first half hour, and after 26 minutes and seven seconds we'll be in outer space, where we'll be weightless for a moment before the gravity device kicks in. Therefore, please do not unbuckle your seat belt and leave your seat until the safety signal is given. Passengers with special needs, please press the service button next to the seat, and a special service robot will contact you! Thank you for your cooperation! ”

Along with the broadcast in the ladder, the ladder also began to slowly accelerate upward.

Compared to rockets, the ascent of the space ladder with orbit is obviously much slower, but in order to get rid of the Earth's gravity, the upward movement in the atmosphere is still accelerating. Xiao Yan, who was sitting on the periphery of the ladder, could clearly see through the 360-degree fully transparent floor-to-ceiling viewing window that Putley Island was getting smaller and smaller in its field of vision, until it was covered by clouds and disappeared from his field of vision.

During the overall acceleration process, few people showed adverse reactions. In fact, in the game of Star Wars, every time you ride the ladder, you will also stimulate the brain and let the body secrete hormones, so as to achieve a similar experience effect. Therefore, although this is the first time that the Star Group's space ladder is open to ordinary people, everyone has long been accustomed to the feeling of being pressed by a force that is not too big.

Most of the lucky people who grabbed the front row of sightseeing seats were just like Xiao Yan and his gang, looking out the window intently, watching the miracles in the real world, sitting on the huge space ladder and gradually moving away from the earth, passing through the white clouds, until they overlooked the clouds from a distant height.

As the ladder continues to rise, a virtual screen also pops up from each seat, detailing the running speed, height, external air pressure, and time of entering the weightless state of the ladder at this time. Half an hour flickered by, and after suddenly feeling a lightness all over his body, he completely relied on the seat belt to tie himself to the chair so as not to float up, and the gravity hammer in the center of the ladder was activated almost synchronously, and the slow rotation brought gravity to the entire ladder similar to the earth's environment.

What makes Xiao Yan feel the most is that sitting in the ladder has always made him feel very comfortable. The pressure of acceleration is not as great as expected, and there is no deafening noise. Without deliberateness, he could even hear the exclamations of Chen Jingjing beside him from time to time. Except for the slight dizziness during the alternation of gravity, the ladder is far more comfortable than expected, and it is not even much different from the environmental experience in the game.

Or this is one of the reasons why the Star Group dares to take all these ordinary people to the space city without any special training. This really brings the feelings in the game to reality, as Wang Shizi said before, it is not so much that Star War is the first virtual reality game in human history, but that it is a platform that allows humans to touch the future in advance, and everything about the future can be experienced in the game first, and rehearsals.

"Thank you for your support, this time the ladder will enter the state of constant speed operation, now you can untie the seat belt, in the rest area for limited activities, the ladder will enter the Xingyao City ladder station in about 69 minutes, thank you again for your cooperation and understanding! Have a great time on your space journey! ”

The sound of the announcement fell, the seat belt on the seat popped off automatically, and countless people sitting in the center began to flock to the surrounding sightseeing area, enjoying the beautiful scenery of standing in the universe and looking at the earth in reality. At this time, the ladder is about 25,000 kilometers away from the earth, and the shape of the entire Mediterranean Sea can be vaguely distinguished through the thick clouds, but Putley Island is no longer able to judge at all, or people who are particularly familiar with the geographical location and sensitive can tell that the black dot on a certain earth is probably the island they passed through when they took the ladder, but for most people, it is impossible to distinguish at all. At this height, Puttli Island, like all the other small islands around it, is submerged in a mesmerizing ocean and becomes a small dot in the ocean. In fact, for a planet with a land area of only 29% of the total area of the earth, if you look at it from a farther height, a large piece of land can only become a foil to the blue water.

The ladder ran in a noisy and lively environment for fifty minutes, and the earth was already getting smaller and smaller in the eyes of everyone, and the space city that was getting closer and closer gradually became clear in the eyes of everyone. With the passage of time, the autobiography of the earth, the sun has begun to use light and heat to affect the other hemisphere, and at this time, only a silhouette is left on Xingyao City.

At this time, some lights have been lit up in the city, and the proportion of gas in the fully enclosed huge space city allows people on the ladder to have a full view of the space city, compared to the huge earth, this space city is suspended in space alone, and dozens of artificial satellites around the space city make this space city seem less lonely.

"Please come back to your seats and put your seatbelts back on. The Ladder will enter the Space City realm in ten minutes. The gravity handover will cause about 30 seconds of weightlessness, so please don't leave your seat at will! ”

After the system broadcasts, everyone regains their positions in an orderly manner. Ten minutes later, after experiencing a feeling of dizziness again, the ladder finally entered the confines of Space City.

When the ladder enters the space city, there is no scenery to see.

The tracks are surrounded by high-standard concrete, similar to the subway environment on Earth, but at this time, the excitement of everyone on the ladder has reached its peak.

After all, this is a real space city, and they will also be the first permanent space immigrants in human history, which is indeed worth exciting.

"I'm really going to live in space in the future! If it had been five years ago, I wouldn't have believed that I had this kind of experience! Chen Jingjing sighed.

"Who isn't? It's just that we don't know when we're back on Earth. Xiao Yan looked intently at the direction of the imaginary earth and replied.

One sentence silenced everyone around them.

To say that there is no sigh is naturally a lie, although it is said that most of these years have been in the game, but after all, it has been on the earth for so many years, and suddenly I have to adapt to a new environment, and I still have a lot of emotion in my heart.

If you don't get picked up on Expedition No. 1 in the end, it's okay to say. If you are really selected, it means that you don't know when you really want to set foot on the earth again in this life. It is extremely possible that you will never even return to Earth. An interstellar expedition sounds exciting, but to put it another way of thinking it means that they will leave their familiar galaxy forever to explore a new and unknown environment.

The good thing is that you can never guess what will happen the next day, and the meaning of life will become completely different from staying on Earth. The disadvantage is that no one knows whether what will happen in the next second is sad or happy, even if Expedition No. 1 encounters an accident just out of the solar system and everyone is destroyed, Xiao Yan will not have too many accidents.

In the vast universe, anything can happen. Who could have predicted that?

It's just that it didn't leave too much time for everyone to sigh, and after a slight shock, the ladder had stopped running, and at this time, it was already possible to see the grand occasion of the ladder station in Xingyao City.

Dozens of robots stood neatly in front of the ladder hatch and made all preparations, just waiting to welcome everyone to leave the ladder station in an orderly manner, but the most eye-catching thing was not these robots of the same model, but the structure diagram of Expedition 1 on the virtual screen at the top of the hall.

The extremely detailed structural diagram slowly rotated above the hall, showing its unique charm to the people who had just boarded Xingyao City from all angles.

The entire hull is flat as it has been seen in the game, and even then, the flat hull is about 1,000 meters from the top floor to the bottom, according to the scale specifications next to it.

At the center of the circle between the upper and lower floors is a large column. Numerous corners protruding from this column make the entire ship's structure look extremely stable. The outermost part of the ship is densely packed with ships and weapons systems. The daunting Black Hole Cannon was specially marked, right in the center of the upper floor.

According to the description on the map, these muzzles that can be pointed at any angle can effectively solve various problems encountered in spaceflight, such as when encountering meteorites, the firepower on the giant ship can completely blow up any giant meteorites that may cause damage to the hull of the ship, so that it will not exceed the bearing range of the energy shield of the giant ship itself.

Most of the engine units of the giant ship are concentrated in the middle and lower parts of the giant ship, and according to the diagram, the entire giant ship has dozens of engine systems, and the steering is quite flexible. In particular, it should be noted that there is no gravity device and life cycle maintenance device in the outer space of the giant ship, and this outer space houses tens of thousands of engineering robots, which are controlled by the ship's computer and then maintain the giant ship itself, various weapon systems and engine systems, without accidents, except for mecha warriors, human beings do not need to operate in the outer layer of the giant ship.

The central part of the giant ship is the area of human activity.

The design of the center section gives the feeling of a ship within a ship, and it is. According to the diagram, in times of crisis, the entire outer layer can be abandoned, only the inner structure can also support the spacecraft in spaceflight, and the independent engine system allows the inner ship to be used as an expeditionary ship, after all, the inner ship volume of the expeditionary one is also about ten times that of the Führer-class destroyer, of course, if the outer ship is really stripped away, the expeditionary ship will lose almost eighty percent of its weapon system, but the black hole cannon is still retained. This is understandable, with Wang Shizi's character, he must leave the last means of self-preservation, and will not let the expeditionary ship become a live target that anyone can bully.

The inner ship has a total of ten floors.

The top and bottom floors are where the mech units are stationed, and the independent engines of the inner ships are concentrated on these two floors.

When the mecha unit is dispatched, the mecha warriors wearing the mecha can directly enter the outer layer of the giant ship through the passage connecting to the outer layer, or take the landing ship, or directly enter the space to fight.

The second and third floors are occupied by science laboratories and scientific warehouses, which are also the permanent residences of the ship's scientists, and all kinds of research and development will not stop even during the long space voyage. Especially after obtaining many extraterrestrial samples, the Unity will be sent here for various analyses. These two layers also store the seeds of almost all plants on the planet, as well as the genetic maps of various animals. In addition to day-to-day research and development, it is also tasked with transforming a planet that may be suitable for human habitation.

The fourth and fifth floors are the agricultural bases on the giant ship, according to the diagram on the virtual picture, the Star Group has mastered the technology of space planting and animal husbandry, and the farm products on these two floors will be converted into the standard food of space through the processing plant set up on the fifth floor-Super Nutrition Pills.

The sixth and seventh floors are the main living quarters of the human race, where 100,000 non-combatants and ship officers live when they are not on duty. These two layers have an almost complete circular ecosystem. There are hospitals, supermarkets, expeditionary military governments, and everything that can be imagined in daily life.

The eighth floor is the most important core position of the entire ship - the giant ship command center.

The command module, the weapons central control center, the monitoring center, the small quantum superbrain, all the instructions are issued from here. Although it is an inner ship, through various cameras on the outer deck and inside the giant ship, the monitoring center can simultaneously observe everything inside and outside the giant ship. It is worth mentioning that there is also a meeting room to communicate with the extraterrestrial life that may be encountered. If extraterrestrial life is encountered, the two sides will also make contact at this level. However, this meeting room can be a bit unusual, and the middle is completely enclosed, which means that even if you communicate with extraterrestrial life here, there will be no direct contact between the two sides.

Each floor is designed with an emergency escape pod, a small life support system that can sustain life for three days. and support emergency landings on other planets. Of course, for the vast space of space, this kind of emergency escape capsule is not of great significance, even if there are no other accidents, the possibility of being rescued after three days of roaming in space is infinitely close to zero. Even if you are lucky enough to be pulled by the gravitational pull of a planet and fall on a planet, the chances of that planet being able to support human life are close to zero.

But no matter what, this is also the pinnacle design of the space voyage ship in human history, and the moment they saw the detailed explanation of the structure of this giant ship, countless people's eyes couldn't take half a minute off it! (To be continued.) )
