Chapter 100: A Call for Help
"This is the ground command center, the 48th day and night change from the departure time, here to broadcast the position of the planet and your observation position, over."
With the material basis provided by a vast network of rhizomes, it is equivalent to a nuclear power plant-level stream that circulates in a circle through the top of the megastructure.
Under the command of Forever, the Pulsing Beasts unleashed high-intensity radio signals in the direction of the departing Hogu, which was projected in the language structure of Morse code.
At this time, from the perspective of Huogu's side, the planet is already less than a tenth of the size of gravel, and it needs to be specially adjusted to the visual distance of the eyes to see clearly in visible light.
The radio waves diverged at the speed of light, and soon caught up with Hogu, who was on the move, and in reply, Hogu also launched a broadcast.
"This is a deep space voyager, receiving information, here is a broadcast of our current position and the observation position of the planet, over."
After receiving the position information, the Perpetual and Hogu sides almost immediately imported the position information into the planetary system model in the Sea of Mind, so as to determine whether the traveling orbit deviated.
This is done every day and night to ensure that the risk is minimized.
"Will, how long will our voyage take?"
"We're still speeding up now, and based on the thrust generated by hydro-oxygen combustion, when the oxy-hydrogen fuel we carry is completely exhausted, the speed will increase to 780 kilometers per hour, and at the farthest 80 million kilometers, it will take about 102564 hours."
Hogu's words piqued the interest of an individual.
"How long is an hour? How many days and nights is the equivalent of? ”
"Well, I don't know about this, I don't have a more objective and accurate timekeeping method, if you are interested, you can go back to the surface and study it slowly."
"If you need anything, you can tell me, but I'm actually struggling with not having an exact concept of time."
Hogu's complaint was immediately echoed by the prospectors, something that bothered even the High Will and how proud it would be if they helped the High Will solve the problem.
"Follow your orders."
Time passes so quickly, the vast sea of stars and the dazzling stellar light, the rest is the state of not being in the village and not in the store, as the departure place, it has been integrated with the starry background, and the destination is the same, the hydrogen and oxygen propulsion has long been exhausted, and the rest is only to move forward by inertia.
At this time, Hogu had already had 2,375 radio exchanges with the ground command center, which means that 2,375 days and nights had passed on the ground command center.
The Life Field channel was basically silent, and the explorers had long since lost the passion and vitality they had at the beginning, and it was more like giving up thinking and being in a long daze.
However, what makes Huo Gu feel relieved is that they can endure this isolated environment of the universe, if they are human beings, without any entertainment and communication, after such a long time, I am afraid that they will already have mental problems.
"It's too boring......"
"How did the expedition team that went to Mars survive?"
"Now that I think about it, I am still limited by the thoughts of the earth, I can obviously use the explosion to provide a strong initial velocity when I set off, and then accelerate through myself, so that I should be able to reach the destination earlier, tsk, why did I forget about this stubble......"
Time continues to pass, and at this time, the perpetual side has gone through 3,971 days and nights, and Huogu's side can finally look directly at the planet with the planetary ring with the naked eye.
It was a joyful thing, although it was still far away, but it certainly gave the Hogu a hope, and as the planet enlarged, they were able to realize that they were approaching the planet, rather than as if they were not moving at all, as they had done before.
However, Hogu's joy did not last long, and was soon buried by another event.
"This is the ground command center, currently 3972nd day and night change from departure time, and here it is broadcast the position of the planet and your observation position,......"
"Help! Distress! Distress! ”
The message from the radio made Huogu's heart sink as if he had been struck hard by something.
Originally, just in case, Hogu taught them the format of the Morse distress signal, which is 'SOS'.
This signal is only allowed to be sent to Hogu for help when it encounters an unprecedented crisis that they cannot solve on their own.
But the problem is that Hogu can't understand what kind of situation they are encountering, so they need to call it for help, and although the distress signal is just in case, it doesn't mean that Hogu will believe in the existence of that 'what if'.
In terms of sustainability, the resources they currently possess, the rhizome system covering the world and the beehives distributed all over the world, these perpetuities have been given the right to use by Huogu, and the beehives have also been transformed and upgraded, and they are no longer just a function of warming up the surface environment.
And the ability to perpetuate their own possession, even if they toss a bunch of things called 'Dasha' again, they can hack to death with a single attack.
What kind of forces can threaten to perpetuate them?
Hogu thought of Twilight, and perhaps after it set off, the surface was hit by a passing meteorite, and Twilight woke up early.
However, this doesn't make sense, it's not that Twilight and Perpetual don't know each other, even if it's a whole conflict, for the sake of Huo Gu's feelings, Twilight generally doesn't do it, and waiting for Huo Gu to come back is more in line with its style.
Could that be an epidemic?
The power of microorganisms has never been underestimated, even if it has been a predatory microorganism for a long time.
The world is always so unexpected, and maybe there may be a germ that can specifically restrain the perpetuation of organisms like them.
However, the subsequent radio signal made Huo Gu dispel this conjecture, and the logic in his mind became even more confused.
“…… Many... Metal...... Enemy...... Don't come back......"
Hogu was convinced that he wasn't teaching the vocabulary of perpetual on the ground, which should have been developed independently by the persistent gatherers who had remained on the surface.
Huo Gu felt a little relieved, but more puzzled and confused.
Enemy?
Where did the enemy come from?
Huo Gu was sure that no one on the planet could be its opponent except for Twilight, and before setting off, Huo Gu, who had a global perspective, did not see any large macro creatures existing, and the sea creatures were still in the microbial stage.
After that, Hogu didn't receive a radio signal that perpetuated them.
