On the night of seeing off Zhu Huanlin's parents, Yang Peiqi left the magic capital. In order to hide people's eyes, Yang Peiqi also pretended to take a plane to Equatorial Africa, because he claimed that Explorer Mining had something to deal with in the mining area of Equatorial Africa.

Yang Peiqi knows that many forces in the world are now eyeing him, so he has to be careful with his actions, of course, this so-called action refers to the actions related to Explorer 8. As for the rest, Yang Peiqi is a little unscrupulous, he hopes to use such behavior to paralyze some people. After all, whether it is psychologically or in terms of strength, he is not ready to deal with those forces that have intentions against him head-on.

After arriving in equatorial Africa, Yang Peiqi smashed headlong into his own mining area. Now, this place is completely in the hands of Yang Peiqi, and it is a thousand super machine soldiers who are guarding the mining area. Under the protection of these super machine warriors, the African mining area of Explorer Mining is really to the point where not even a fly or mosquito can fly into it without Yang Peiqi's permission.

When Yang Peiqi traveled to equatorial Africa, the country was in the midst of war. With the support of Yang Peiqi, the opposition forces rose sharply and launched an all-out counteroffensive against government forces. It's just that because these opposition forces have only been supported by Yang Peiqi for a short time, coupled with the fact that equatorial Africa is full of tropical forests and inconvenient transportation, and the strength of the opposition forces before is too poor, there is no real combat effectiveness of the army, so even with the support of Yang Peiqi's large-scale weapons and funds, the progress of the war is still a little slow. After all, this is a real war. What is needed is real soldiers, not just random people. Take a burning stick and kill all directions.

In Yang Peiqi's view, there is no time for three or five months. It is difficult for the armed opposition to control the whole of Equatorial Africa.

However, Yang Peiqi doesn't care about these things now. Once he entered the mine, he got into the supercraft from Explorer 8 and began his journey into space.

Because this is his first trip to space, and there are not many energy points he has now, Yang Peiqi's trip this time is not too far, but he plans to conduct a simple exploration of the inner solar system.

Don't look at the solar system as just an inconspicuous little galaxy in the endless universe, the region is only a few hundred billionth of the galaxy in which it is located, but this is considering the near-infinite universe. If only one of its most marginal planets is considered. That is, Pluto, which has now been expelled from the sequence of nine planets, is the boundary, and the radius of the solar system has reached 40 astronomical units, that is, about 5.9 billion kilometers, which is the minimum radius. But if you calculate according to the Oort cloud, its scale is after all, a full 0.5 light years, or about 4.8 trillion kilometers. Regardless of the borders considered, the sheer numbers are extremely terrifying.

And the range that Yang Peiqi absolutely wants to detect is the boundary divided according to the Oort cloud. In other words, the space range he wants to detect is a space with a radius of 4.8 trillion kilometers.

In such a range, if all the spacecraft he was flying were flying at sub-light speeds. It will take at least half a year. However, Yang Peiqi's planned detection time is only 10 days. Besides, since it is for exploration, it is natural that it cannot fly in the solar system at a uniform speed. Therefore, it is inevitable to fly faster than light in this process.

And so the problem comes. The aircraft he had previously used to convert to Explorer 8 could only fly at sub-light speeds. Doesn't have the ability to fly faster than the speed of light. In other words, in order to explore the main regions of the solar system in the time he planned, to find the minerals that Explorer 8 needs, replacing a higher-level aircraft has become a necessary choice.

This is also the reason why Yang Peiqi did not think enough about it when he exchanged the Huàn aircraft to Explorer 8. He subconsciously thought of the boundary of the solar system as Pluto. If it was just Pluto as the boundary, the flying machine he had exchanged with Huàn before would be enough.

However, if you only explore the area within Pluto, it is difficult to find any valuable minerals. Because the region within Pluto can be seen as a similar region from the perspective of the entire large solar system, there is not much difference in the form of matter in this range. In other words, the elements that can be found on these planets can be found on Earth seven or eight times out of ten.

In the choice of a new flying machine, Yang Peiqi put a lot of thought into it, mainly because he has too few energy points now, only a little over a billion. And to be able to fly faster than the speed of light, the minimum number of energy points required is not less than 300 million. And the speed of this kind of aircraft is very tricky, just able to reach the speed of light, the fastest speed is 1.2 times the speed of light, and the cruising speed is exactly the speed of light.

And such a flying machine obviously cannot meet Yang Peiqi's needs.

According to Yang Peiqi's exploration plan, to explore the entire solar system bounded by the Oort cloud within ten days, even if it is just along the diameter of the solar system, it will require a supercraft that is almost 40 times the speed of light.

And a flying machine that can reach a cruising speed of forty times the speed of light is definitely not something that Yang Peiqi now has with the energy points that can be exchanged for huàn.

However, there is no way to go to the sky, and super-vehicles that can fly faster than light speed are not so simple, because they have the ability to fly faster than light, and at the same time, they also have another special ability, that is, space jumping.

For space jumping technology, in fact, people on the earth have already had the first theoretical exploration, that is, based on the development of string theory, through guò based on the cosmic string built by artificial wormholes, to achieve hyperspace jumping. This kind of technology is still in the original idea on Earth, but the civilization that created Explorer 8 has developed to a very high level, and the specific table is that the aircraft made by this civilization can fly at high speeds of light, and they can make space jumps.

And the so-called superlight speed refers to the speed of light that reaches more than five times the speed of flight.

In fact, it is very difficult to simply increase the speed after reaching the speed of light. To make an ultra-long-distance space flight, it is essential to make space jumps. Imagine that the Milky Way alone has a diameter of 120,000 light-years, and if you can't make space jumps, how many times the speed of light can you fly to travel through the galaxy?

After thinking about it, Yang Peiqi chose a vehicle with a maximum speed of five times the speed of light and was able to make space jumps. In other words, his choice happened to be an entry-level vehicle capable of space jumping. And the phone bill of this kind of aircraft is exactly one billion energy points. (To be continued......)
