Chapter 128: Seeing the Light of Day Again
The rocket "carried" the space shuttle Discovery and tilted, and when the connecting device and the square hole were connected, it stopped tilting with a bang.
A few people in the flight capsule looked out the window, still in the deep well hangar, at this time, because the shuttle was tilted, so no longer in a "lying" sitting position, a little more comfortable.
After a moment of silence, the shuttle suddenly jerked again, and began to slide into the hole with a bang.
After a while, the rocket and the space shuttle were brought together into a tunnel that stretched upwards at a 30Β° angle, large enough to accommodate the rocket and the shuttle together.
Senna scolded: "How much taxpayers' money will be spent on such a huge project!" β
Shangguan Yu said: "Isn't EL a private company? It can spend its own money however it wants. β
βshitοΌβ Senna continued to scold, "With such a vast project, its private enterprises simply don't have the economic strength, let alone the ability. Money, talent, technology, these are all things that can only be built at the national level! There's definitely something shady in this! Made! Look, it's pushed the whole world straight into the apocalypse! β
"Brother Yu, Sister Saina, look at it!" Zhao still pointed his finger and said.
At this moment, the space shuttle is being dragged forward in the tunnel, and when passing through a section of the tunnel, the two sides are tempered glass, and you can see that the outside of the glass on both sides is a deep well hangar, and in each hangar there is a space shuttle, which is tied to a rocket, especially the rocket in the hangar on the right, which is a super large bundled rocket.
All four of them looked at the scene in front of them with dumbfounded expressions.
Shangguan Yu seemed to understand something, so he asked the system computer in the suit: "Osmanthus, are we going to fly directly to Amazon?"
Osmanthus replied: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shangguan, I don't know, but according to the current situation, if you speculate comprehensively, it is not impossible to do so."
Sena asked, "Brother Yu, why do you think so?"
Shangguan Yu pointed to the high-thrust launch vehicle that had already passed, and said, "That's what I guessed, the big rocket just now, I guessed that it could fly directly to the moon." And this one of ours is too small, so I guess it might send us to Amazon. β
Senna said: "Then why don't you just use an ordinary plane?" Isn't it too much of a waste of resources to send us with rockets? β
Shangguan Yu shook his head: "I don't know what is going on."
In fact, he wanted to say that this whole thing may not be as simple as just one EL company, or it may not just be as simple as colluding with the government of country M.
At this moment, he thought of extraterrestrial forces, that is, the so-called aliens, and he just felt that behind the whole thing, human beings were being watched and played.
One of the reasons why he didn't say it was because it was only conjecture at the moment, and there was no substantial evidence.
Secondly, if his conjecture is true, then they are now flying in the EL company's aircraft, and saying it at this time will inevitably attract the attention of this alien force behind the scenes.
So he can't say, he can only speculate in his heart.
Since receiving the erosion of the A virus, he has also improved by leaps and bounds in his ability to think, that is, his intelligence has improved completely.
Originally, as a scumbag, he basically didn't learn English at all in six years of middle school, so he didn't know anything about English, but after the end of the world, in just one week, his English level improved rapidly, and he could speak simply.
He believes that in a month at most, his English level will be able to fully communicate at an ordinary level.
Instead, they were pulled by the towing device and were moving forward in the tunnel.
This is a very long time, because the shuttle is not moving very fast, and has been moving in the tunnel for nearly an hour.
Several people were hungry.
Faced with the current dilemma, Shangguan Yu said: "It seems that we can only find a way to find food after we reach the destination." Let's hope the rocket really sends us to the Amazon, not to space! β
During the hour of sliding upwards in the tunnel, several people were speculating about what the hell this so-called lizard king was, and whether it would be a zombie too.
Will the so-called lizard king be a mutated big lizard, if so, then it is not a zombie, because according to the characteristics of the zombie A virus, non-mammals will not be infected with the A virus, while the lizard is a reptile and a cold-blooded animal, and will never be infected with the A virus.
If it's a zombie, it wouldn't be a lizard.
So what exactly is it?
Finally, after taxiing for an hour, the shuttle stopped and began to adjust its posture again, by which time the tunnel had reached the end of the tunnel, and they came to another vertical deep well hangar, where the rocket and the shuttle were adjusting to their established posture under the adjustment of the mechanism.
So the sitting posture of several people in the cabin began to change towards lying down again.
"What's going on?" Ran Ran asked.
Shangguan Yu replied: "I guess, we may be almost to the ground, and in a while, the lid above our heads will open, and the rocket will fly us out." β
The rocket and the space shuttle were adjusted to the posture again, and sure enough, as Shangguan Yu said, the sound of the machine came from above the deep well hangar.
And now several people are lying posture, so through the front window, very clearly see above, with the sound of the machine, the top of the screw cover slowly opened, a glimmer of light shines in, this bright light is not light, but natural light, this time is half past five in the afternoon of Eastern time every week, almost dusk, but the outside is still very bright.
As the screw cap opened wider and wider, the sunlight projected from outside became brighter and brighter.
Due to the fact that the ship has been in the tunnel for a long time, everyone is already familiar with the dark underground light, so it is a little uncomfortable to suddenly receive this very bright light.
After the screw caps on the top were all opened, the entire hangar well was already transparent, and sure enough, as Shangguan Yu said, they finally came to the ground from five thousand meters underground and saw the light of day again.
After the hangar well was opened, the rocket did not ignite immediately, but stood quietly in place, and both Ran Ran and Senna asked curiously: "What's wrong, why don't you move again?" β
Spice, who had been silent, said, "Maybe it will take some time for the power to start." β
Shangguan Yu said: "Wait, hurry up and fly, I'm starving, are you hungry?" β
"Hungry!" All three, including Spice, said in unison.
And at this time, there was a sudden loud bang at the bottom of the rocket, and then a woman's computer voice came from inside the cabin:
"Five-minute countdown to ignition, destination: Amazon."
