Chen Xu woke up and habitually glanced at the time, seven o'clock in the morning.

"Today is the fifty-first day."

He said in his heart that the dream time was halfway over. In the blink of an eye, Yang Jinxia came to the Dawn, and it has been ten days.

Today was an important day, and after he washed up, he changed into a new outfit.

On the Aurora, there are some rules that are very restrictive, like those who live in the C-class area, they can only wear uniforms. In the B-class area, there will be more styles of uniforms. Only in the A-class area can you have the freedom to dress.

In fact, this regulation was originally intended to save resources and not to build too many garment factories. Later, it became a way to show status.

Chen Xu wears a kind of civilian clothes, he doesn't have too many requirements for clothing, just dress comfortably.

After washing, he walked out of the room, breakfast was ready in the dining room, and there were beans and soy milk and fritters on the table.

"How could there be any of this?" He was a little surprised that on the spaceship, he could still eat soy milk fritters.

Yang Jinxia was washing dishes in the kitchen, put things down, hung the dishcloth back in place, walked out, and said with a smile, "As long as you think of a way, you can always do it." ”

Chen Xu is right to think about it, at the beginning of the construction of the Dawn, he took into account the problems of production, and moved the entire industrial chain up, so that anything can be produced.

"Thank you." He sat down in his place.

Yang Jinxia had already poured a bowl of soy milk, put it in front of him, sat down too, and said, "You are going to use the learning machine today and eat more." ”

Chen Xu thought of the sequelae after using the learning machine, and looked at the white soy milk in the bowl, and couldn't help but feel a little sick to his stomach.

She saw that his expression was a little strange and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's just a little nervous." Chen Xu explained, took a sip of soy milk, "The knowledge that the human brain can hold is limited, and the interval between this time is relatively short, and it is possible to fail." ”

The use of learning machines is not 100% successful, and the higher the frequency of use, the lower the success rate. Like him, if you use it three times in a row in less than two months, there is a risk that the brain will be overburdened, and a stress response will occur, and when the time comes, the society will have the opportunity to force it to stop.

If this happens, it will cause relatively large damage to the brain, and in a short period of time, you will not be able to use the learning machine, at least after a year.

Yang Jinxia said, "In this case, it is better to postpone it for a while." ”

"Nope." Chen Xu shook his head and said, "I have a hunch that if I don't use it today, I probably won't have a chance in the future." ”

She was a little puzzled, "Why?" ”

Chen Xu looked at her and said, "Thinking about our previous experience, there will always be accidents if we don't live a stable life for a few days." Although the wind is calm now, I can feel that there is danger that we don't know is quietly approaching. ”

Yang Jinxia held his hand, felt his nerves tense a little, and said, "No matter what danger you encounter, I will accompany you." ”

Chen Xu looked at her eyes for a while before saying, "I know." ”

After a while, Yang Jinxia withdrew his hand and said, "Eat, it'll be cold in a while." ”

He nodded, took a fritter and ate it.

After breakfast, Chen Xu was about to go out, and just opened the door, he suddenly turned his head and said, "Otherwise, I'll send you back to your spaceship." There are robots out there that can protect you. ”

Yang Jinxia shook her head slowly but firmly, and said, "No, it's enough for you to protect me." ”

Chen Xu looked at her deeply, didn't persuade her more, and said, "I'm leaving." ”

…………

The Aurora has a rule that combat robots like S01 are not allowed to enter. It was only in 2003 that the system judged that there was no threat to come in. But it can only move in a fixed range and cannot leave at will.

Chen Xu couldn't put those robots if he wanted to, once Taichu determined that it was a robot invasion, the spaceship would enter the ultimate combat mode, and use all means to destroy the enemy, including self-explosion.

Just like what Chen Xu said just now, now that the dream is halfway through, it is about to approach the second node.

The last crisis, whether it was a cube or an alien hatched by the queen of worms, was very dangerous, and it was possible to survive it successfully, and there was an element of luck in it. The second node tends to run into a bigger crisis, and he really doesn't have much confidence.

He had almost digested the knowledge he had instilled last time, and he couldn't wait to use the learning machine for the third time. Because he knows that time is running out.

He rode in Teleport Zero to the learning base.

Taichu's voice rang out, "Are you sure you want to use the learning machine at this time?" ”

He said, "What I have already decided, don't discuss it anymore." ”

Taichu said, "Good luck, then." ”

Chen Xu didn't speak again, closed his eyes and recuperated, trying to adjust his state to the best.

Ten minutes later, the learning base arrived.

"Identity, Dear Acting Captain, your study time is eight hours, and the mode is soothing. The corresponding credits, which have been deducted from your account, hope you have a good time learning. ”

Chen Xu lay down in the instrument again, closed his eyes, and soon, he fell into darkness.

…………

At home, Yang Jinxia sat on the sofa and was thinking, "If he doesn't come back at noon, what should I eat?" ”

Suddenly, the light in the room flickered a few times and went dark.

"What's wrong?" She stood up with a solemn expression, and the room was once again bright. It's like nothing happened.

She remembered Chen Xu's words in the morning, and couldn't help but sigh, "Is it true that you don't even give a few days of stable life?" ”

At this time, a voice rang out, "Madam, there is some malfunction on the side of the power plant, sorry for the inconvenience." ”

She looked up and said, "You're the beginning, aren't you?" ”

"Yes, ma'am."

She asked, "The power plant on the Aurora uses fusion to generate electricity, right?" ”

"Yes. Due to a lack of manpower to carry out routine maintenance, there was a slight glitch in the operation procedures of the power plant, which is now closed ......"

Before Taichu finished speaking, the house suddenly shook violently, and with a bang, all kinds of things fell to the ground. Even Yang Jinxia was unsteady on her feet and sat down on the sofa.

She grabbed the handrail and asked, "Is it serious?" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp voice sounded, and the lights in the room of the "Level 1 Alarm ......" instantly turned into flashing red lights, showing how critical the situation was.

She stood up from the sofa, pulled a rubber band from her wrist, tied her hair up, and asked, "What about Chen Xu?" ”

Taichu said, "He is still in the learning machine, and the learning process cannot be interrupted, and he must wait until the study time is over before he can wake up." ”

"How long will it take?"

"Seven hours and thirty minutes."

"Will the Aurora last that long?"

"This power plant explosion/explosion did not affect the most important area-"

Before he could finish speaking, there was another violent tremor, and then the whole room went dark. Its voice was also gone.

She sighed, "It's really unreliable." 2003。 ”

With her call, 2003 emerges from the room, a beam of light shining from the position of his eyes.

She walked over to the wall, grabbed the handle, pressed and pulled, and pulled out a drawer containing a lightweight spacesuit.

She put on the spacesuit in twos and threes, put on the round transparent hood, and said, "Let's go, let's go find him." ”

…………

When Chen Xu woke up, his mind was a little dizzy, as if he had a cold, he didn't even hear the prompt sound of the learning machine, crawled out of the instrument, and walked straight out.

This time, the study time was extended, but the most advanced learning machine was used, and the side effects were much smaller than before, and there was no feeling of nausea and vomiting.

As soon as the door of the learning base opened, he saw the red light flashing in the passage outside, and he watched it for a few seconds before he realized that something was coming, walked out, and shouted, "Taichu, what happened?" ”

Taichu's voice rang out, "There was an explosion at the power plant, damaging the surrounding communication base stations, causing a large-scale communication interruption on the Dawn......"

When Chen Xu heard this, the whole person immediately became energetic, and said hurriedly, "Then what are you waiting for, I'll go and repair it." ”

"That was seven hours and thirty minutes ago." Tai Chu continued, "After the communication was interrupted, the operation of the other two power plants was affected, and a few minutes later, there was also a detonation/explosion, this time, there was a chain reaction......

Chen Xu was stunned, in the eight hours he was on the learning machine, this kind of thing actually happened?

"Just tell me straight, how bad is the ship's damage?"

"The power system is almost paralyzed, and the power system is damaged by 90 ......"

Chen Xu listened to Taichu's report of a series of data, and his heart was half cold.

He finally understood what the test of the second level was, the ship malfunctioned unexpectedly, and all the humans worked together to repair the ship......

However, the only humans on the Aurora are him and Yang Jinxia, as well as 990 androids who are receiving education, and the other 990 fetuses that have not yet been born from the gestational room.

How is this going on?

Immediately, he remembered Yang Jinxia, interrupted it, and asked, "What about my wife?" ”

"It's still in the A-class residential area, and three minutes ago, she sent a message through the spacesuit's liaison. ”

Chen Xu didn't say a word, walked to the place marked on the wall, pressed his hand on it, and the wall popped up, and a set of spacesuits was placed inside.

When he put it on, he said, "Send me her location." ”

"Take care."

When Chen Xu heard it, he glanced back at the location of the camera and said, "You also take care." With that, he walked out of the passage.
