The rest of the space trip didn't encounter anything special, and it was smooth along the way.

Mu Chen's pilots had a heavy task, losing more than 20 teammates, a few were injured to varying degrees, and more than 80 were able to continue flying, so they didn't have much time to relax.

Fortunately, Mu Chen likes this kind of fulfilling life very much, which is more meaningful than staying in the living area and arguing with his sister every day.

When he is resting, Mu Chen usually stays at the training ground to help the members of the maintenance team do some daily maintenance. From time to time, his comrades from the landing force came to greet him, and at the end they always said the same thing, "Let's drink together when we return to Earth." ”

Mu Chen tried his best to accept their invitations, after all, they were all well-intentioned, and rashly refusing would give people a very bad feeling. The minds of these warriors are not so complicated, and only when they really recognize each other will they use the stupid method of fighting wine to close the distance between each other.

Mu Chen roughly calculated, if there was a drinking game a day, then for half a year, it was estimated that he would maintain a state of drunken dreams and death every day.

But I'm not afraid, I'm going to drink it when I go back, and I'm still good at drinking anyway.

Seeing that it was about to approach the earth, the daily staff on the whale also began to get busy, to conduct physical examinations for all the passengers on the whale, so as not to carry a space virus to the earth.

The medical staff who checked the body of Mu Chen's family happened to be the female medical soldier Lucy who loved to cry before, when Mu Chen saw her, she was checking Mu Yue's oral hygiene, the little girl's mouth was wide open, Lucy checked it and reminded her to eat less sugar.

"Sluggs? Is that you, slug? Mu Chen walked up to the medical staff who were examining his sister and asked with some uncertainty.

At the beginning of the war, he didn't remember the name of this female medic, but now it looks a bit like it.

As soon as Lucy looked up, she saw Mu Chen, who was very tall, and quickly got up to receive a salute, after all, Mu Chen's military rank was much higher than her.

I was a little embarrassed in my heart, and the incident of crying in the cockpit of that landing ship was spread by my comrades-in-arms, causing many people to laugh at it with kindness. Lucy's greatest fear was to meet the pilot again, after all, she was clearly seen, and she didn't even have a reason to explain.

"Don't be so polite, they are all comrades-in-arms who have fought side by side, it's too polite and awkward." Mu Chen said casually.

"By the way, my sister is fine, right? This girl is greedy, you take a good look, and the tooth that should be extracted should be pulled out for her quickly. Mu Chen glanced at his sister with a wicked smile and said to Lucy.

"Poof." Lucy couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker, she couldn't imagine that the god of death on this battlefield also had such an interesting scene.

I saw that Mu Chen was arguing with his sister because of the words just now, and he didn't have the murderous feeling in the cockpit last time, he looked very warm and gentle.

"Uh, this is your sister?" Lucy asked a little strangely, the difference in the appearance of the two people is still a little big, to be precise, Muyue is still a yellow-haired girl, and she has not grown at all.

"Well, sister, didn't you see a picture of where I put it in the cockpit?" Mu Chen said with a smile.

Lucy then remembered that in the landing ship now called the "Grim Reaper", there were two pictures on one side, which seemed to be hand-painted, one was a family portrait of a family of four, and the other was not a self-portrait of this girl?

At first, I was a little curious about who this portrait was, but now I finally understand.

"Ha, I was so nervous that I didn't know anything, so I really didn't pay much attention to it." Lucy said embarrassedly.

"Also, patronizing and crying nose, you slug." Mu Chen smiled kindly.

"Oh, don't expose me, okay? Shame on you! Lucy's face flushed with shame.

The two communicated briefly for a while, and Mu Chen didn't want to affect other people's work too much, so he left with his sister who had completed the inspection.

Helping the family prepare things, in fact, there is nothing to prepare, the main thing is to take out the clothes and belongings that were saved at that time, and change them when they return to the ground.

The Giant Whale slowly docked in the spaceport in low-earth orbit, and the connection was automatically connected, and the passengers entered the large spaceport called "Sky City" in an orderly manner.

The Castle in the Sky was the first city built by humans outside of Earth. Float in low-earth orbit and slowly fly along the orbit.

This city in the sky is not much different from the city on the ground, and after installing a simulated gravity system, the people who live and work on it will not feel weightless.

Much larger than the spaceport above Titan, this "city in the sky" is a real city with its own living and commercial areas, as well as research institutes, space farms, and science labs.

The main people who live here are scientists, who conduct some scientific research in weightlessness and in a vacuum environment.

In the distance, there is also a spaceyard, which is responsible for the construction of some of the largest starships and warplanes, and the Whale will also be docked in it for post-mission maintenance and upkeep.

Countless professional workers worked there day and night, and the warships produced were constantly evolving, and almost every new warship was more advanced than the previous one.

There is also a military academy on the Sky City, which was built by the people of the United States and is mainly used to train space pilots and staff on space missions. Mu Chen will also study here for a period of time in the future.

There are also some space factories and recycling stations, and their work is mainly to recycle satellites launched by various countries over the years, many years have passed, and the satellites launched at the beginning have long been obsolete by the times, and those left in low-earth orbit will only become space junk.

Some parts of the recovered satellites are still of high value, and if they can't be done, they can be sent back to museums on the ground as collections for exhibitions to people around the world, which can also create a lot of surplus value.

The important thing to talk about is the thing that returns to the ground from Sky City, the space elevator.

Almost every country with some strength will build a space elevator on its own territory, and the highest level is Huaxia, which has built 13 of them, not to mention, and has helped some countries such as the neighbors of the United States to build a lot, fully showing their ability to build a strong country.

This space elevator can lead directly to the city in the sky from the ground, not to mention the incredible speed, it is also very safe, and the carrying capacity is also amazing, the parts of the spaceship in the space dock are produced on the ground, and then sent to the space dock by the space elevator for assembly and debugging.

Space elevator is divided into manned elevator and freight elevator two, the principle is actually the same as the elevator used in people's daily life, the elevator compartment is transported to the top through the cable, and after the sky city moves, the elevator warehouse will be separated from the space elevator and grabbed by the sky city, so that the personnel or materials in the elevator warehouse will successfully arrive.

The same principle is true for returning to the ground, where passengers or materials enter the elevator compartment first, and after the Sky City runs to the corresponding position, the elevator compartment and Sky City are separated and connected to the space elevator, so that they can descend to the ground along the elevator track.

People no longer have to think about the way they used to be, when they had to launch a rocket to outer space, and if they didn't do it, they would blow it up, and the corpse would not be recovered.

Now if you want to see outer space, you can take the space elevator and reach the city in the sky in a very short time after passing simple procedures and basic training.

You can also stay in the space hotel on the sky city, stay for a few days, and experience the feeling of flying.

It's even become a tourism project, and many countries are actively developing it to get people to see as much space as possible.
