121 Gravityless Flying Carpet
“XXXXX……”
“YYYYY……”
“ZZZZZ……”
It seemed that someone was talking to himself, Wu Xiaoqing thought.
Completely incomprehensible.
There was no text on the subtitles, Wu Xiaoqing turned his head, and behind him, the robot body of the search and rescue team was motionless.
After a long time, Wu Xiaoqing, who had been in a suspended state, finally couldn't help it: "Big brother, what are you doing?" ”
"I'm talking to him."
"Him?" Wu Xiaoqing turned his head and looked around: "Where did he come from?" ”
"The head of control here."
"Oh, can you get him to talk to me? Hi, hello? ”
"Not yet, we're exchanging language library information with each other."
"But I can't hear anything?"
"Electromagnetic wave communication."
"Well, how long will it take?"
"For an hour or two, you're in this room, don't go out. You can familiarize yourself with the use of this thruster first. ”
The thruster that the search and rescue team is talking about is the "flying carpet" that they spent millions of dollars to customize from the factory, and Wu Xiaoqing is now sitting on it - strictly speaking, it can't be considered a sitting, there is no gravity here at all, and there is actually no concept of up and down.
It is said to be a flying carpet, but in fact, the thruster itself is a hard material made of alloy materials.
It appears to be a cuboid more than three meters long, more than a meter wide, and tens of centimeters thick.
When riding, the "passenger" can attach himself to the propeller with a rope, and can choose to fix two legs, or one leg and one hand.
For convenience, or rather, to take care of Wu Xiaoqing's IQ, its operation is very simple:
Wu Xiaoqing only needs to turn on his mobile phone, and he can easily control the flight status of the flying carpet through a software.
Because the proportion of mobile phones is very close to that of the flying carpet, the entire state of the flying carpet can be simulated with the mobile phone. Wu Xiaoqing can adjust the speed on the screen to determine the flying speed of the flying carpet first, and then he only needs to gently make corresponding movements on the mobile phone in his hand, and the flying carpet can complete the exact same direction conversion operation. To put it simply, Wu Xiaoqing can compare his mobile phone to the flying carpet he "rides", and any action he wants can be done intuitively by controlling his mobile phone.
The whole operation process is very intuitive, Wu Xiaoqing put the mobile phone up, the flying carpet will also be vertical, Wu Xiaoqing flips the mobile phone, and others will also be driven by the flying carpet to flip. He can even easily rotate 3600° in place, he only needs to turn the mobile phone in his hand, and then the whole person's perspective is also driven by the flying carpet.
The experience is like a child holding a model airplane flying in a simulated airplane – and in the process of the simulation, the child himself flies as if he were actually on the plane.
WU XIAOQING'S AGE, IN FACT, IS SUCH A SMALL CHILD, WHEN HE ENCOUNTERS SUCH A FUN TOY, HE PLAYS WITH IT BY HIMSELF, AND HE BECOMES HAPPY.
Until the search and rescue team told him that the exchange was complete and they could go.
"So, what about the head of control?" Wu Xiaoqing was particularly curious about this, "Can you ask him to say a few words to me?" ”
"He doesn't know Chinese."
"And what did you just talk about?"
"We search each other's language pools together...... In a way you can understand, we look at each other's heads to see what each other speaks of. Once you've found a common language, start updating your language library. Chinese does not exist in his language base. ”
Wu Xiaoqing regretted: "Can't he be like you, learn?" ”
The search and rescue team also regretted: "He doesn't think there is anything to say about you......" The search and rescue team didn't say something more cruel - such as he thought Wu Xiaoqing looked like a carbon-based pet raised by the search and rescue team - and told him to take care of this pet and not to ...... here casually Well, affect the cleaning.
"One walks forward, in the direction of the open door, a little slower."
"Aren't you going with me?"
"No...... This body is too bulky to fit. ”
You can't even do basic walking and running on Earth, let alone jump frequently and move at high speeds in a gravity-free environment. Like the previous mission, the main job of the search and rescue team is to stay near the teleportation point and complete remote communication with Wu Xiaoqing through glasses.
Wu Xiaoqing lightly activated the "flying carpet", and then directly in front of him, the first door opened automatically, behind the open door, there was a row of transparent unfamiliar characters suspended in the air, and the search and rescue team translated every message he saw for Wu Xiaoqing in time from the glasses - "Welcome back, this is Planet 0." ”
These characters are all floating in the air, as if they were the result of some kind of optical technique. As Wu Xiaoqing walked through them, the characters were like leaves in the air, scattered behind him by the flying carpet.
Wu Xiaoqing looked at the front of him in amazement - the door was completely blank, and he could still vaguely see the vista, which was many large and small, meteorite-like islands, floating in the sky.
Wu Xiaoqing thought that this was going out, but after the door behind him closed, he realized that he had just entered a transparent passage.
"Visit the passage."
As a row of characters representing this meaning was knocked away in front of his eyes, Wu Xiaoqing clearly saw a three-dimensional map appear in front of him, and a small white dot represented Wu Xiaoqing's location.
In the map, Wu Xiaoqing's small dot is in the center of a huge spherical structure - yes, there should be layers of walls in front of him, but what he sees now is a void and seemingly real outside scenery - the search and rescue team told him that those are the external reality that is being played.
"Planet 0 Living Area."
The scenery is gone, replaced by a view of the interior. It is a strange and strange forest, there is a lawn on the ground, there are flowers, there are many trees in front of him, Wu Xiaoqing stretched out his hand to touch the nearest one, until his hand passed through the tree, only to find that these scenery are the same as the characters he saw before, just optical effects. But this optical effect is too realistic, and after passing through, Wu Xiaoqing turned his head and looked back, still a little unbelievable.
This made Wu Xiaoqing unable to judge the size of the entire room, from his point of view, there was a whole boundless forest in front of him, and some strange small animals could even be seen in the distance. But when he went in that direction, the animal was gone. When he was about to chase in the direction of the animal's escape, the forest in front of him slowly faded and turned into a black wall—reminding Wu Xiaoqing that he had now entered the boundary of the room.
After Wu Xiaoqing retreated, the scenery was restored again.
"High-speed lanes, directions only."
This should be the highway here, and the direction of the hint is a forward arrow in the air. There was not a single person in sight on the whole "road", only a dark patch. This made Wu Xiaoqing naturally think of a question: "Big brother, is there no one living here?" ”
"Someone."
"Where?" Wu Xiaoqing said, "Can you take me to see it?" ”
"Don't worry, keep walking."
After passing through the high-speed passage, the next door opens, and it is "Planet 0 Operations Room." ”
The door of the operation room was closed, and the search and rescue team said that they did not have permission to enter, so they could only pass by the side and continue to walk inside, all the way to a relatively narrow passage, no virtual picture, no prompt. After about twenty minutes, they stopped in front of a small inconspicuous door.
Unlike before, when the door opened automatically every time I walked to the door, this one was closed. There is a row of black characters on the door, which translates to: "Pending authorization." ”
They waited for 1 minute, and then the door opened.
It was a dark room, very small, with a conspicuous row of small cabinets on the walls of the room, on which was written: "Energy Reserve Area." ”
As requested by the search and rescue team, Wu Xiaoqing approached the cabinet and opened the first cabinet, which contained a long glass tube the size of his arm. The glass tube is dark gray in color and feels light in the hand.
"You can understand this thing as a battery," the search and rescue team said, "and the whole task this time is to find such a battery, bring it over, put it here, and that's it." ”
Wu Xiaoqing took a closer look at the battery, it looked like a solar tube, and he didn't think there was anything strange. He asked cautiously, "This battery...... How do I find it? ”
Wu Xiaoqing had heard the search and rescue team describe this task before, saying that this task was much more difficult than the previous two.
In this case, it must be quite difficult to find this kind of glass tube in your hand.
The search and rescue team said: "I don't know yet. ”
"And what is this pipe for?" Wu Xiaoqing saw the translation of electric energy reserves and reacted.
"There are other uses for batteries...... It's to send out electricity, that's what it does. ”
"Then ......," Wu Xiaoqing naturally thought, "Bring some batteries from the earth, if it's not enough, just bring a generator, wouldn't it?" ”
"Theoretically possible. If we use diesel to generate electricity, then we must prepare enough fuel first...... Well, about five million barrels or so, that's pretty much enough. When converted into dollars, it is about more than 300 million dollars. But with so much oil, equivalent to half of the annual production of the whole of Russia, it is completely impossible to keep it secret. On the whole basis, in order to completely convert such a large-scale oil into electricity, it is necessary to build a special oil power station - whether it is manpower or technology, it is difficult for us to do. ”
"Five hundred...... 10,000 barrels? Wu Xiaoqing lowered his head, looked at the black pipe in his hand, and felt that its weight was suddenly much heavier.
$300 million!
What makes Wu Xiaoqing feel even more incredible is not this order of magnitude, but the way the search and rescue team thinks about the problem - he has indeed considered this plan and its feasibility. If it were him, he might have given up completely when he saw the figure of five million.
"What the hell is in there? Nuclear material? "As far as Wu Xiaoqing knows, the thing with the highest energy density is the legendary fuel rods of nuclear power plants. But how high, he himself can't say.
