Volume 2 The Road to Redemption Chapter 138 Beneath the Ice of Europa
..
"Yes, at Starship Base. Don't worry, there are still ten hours to go, and preparations are being made. ”
"I was about to call you, and you called."
Wan Guoyong stopped joking and told Shi Hao the exact departure time.
"Then I'll go back to Los Angeles City and prepare a little."
Shi Hao heard that there was enough time, and controlled the frisbee to fly in the direction of Luoshi.
He first explained the situation to several senior executives of the company, and Wang Youcai and Xu Wucheng still presided over the work, and the board of directors waited for him to come back to determine the time of the meeting, so that they could prepare for work at home.
And once again, we should pay close attention to the advancement of various tasks, pay for money when we need it, and go to people if we need it.
Shi Hao found Wu Yun-fat and said that he was going to space, and was going to take a few bionic robots and war pets for testing.
Wu Yunfa directly gave Shi Hao two super Taishan-level war pets and two Taishan-level intelligent control bionic robots.
With the launch of Wu's road control system version 3.0, the safety of intelligent control robots is getting higher and higher, in order to be able to adapt to the harsh space environment and accelerate the speed of space exploration, the above instructed to develop Taishan-level intelligent control robots, which are still in the testing period.
"Director Wu, when will the Songshan-level war pet be developed?"
After Shi Hao was upgraded to the Songshan level, Jupiter's strength couldn't keep up, so if he could, he wanted to upgrade Jupiter to the Songshan level as well.
"I haven't had time to get a Songshan-level battle pet yet. In this way, in the next two days, I will report the Songshan-level war pet project to Minister Lei for the record, as long as he approves it, it can be manufactured in less than ten days, and the technology is the same. ”
"Okay, if you get it right, help me upgrade Jupiter."
After Shi Hao finished speaking, when he was about to turn (body shēn) and leave, Wu Yunfa stopped him.
"General Shi, I want you to help me take the bionic cell petri dish into space to see if there is any difference in the bionic cells cultivated there."
"I won't do it either, you wait."
Shi Hao took out the phone and called Wan Guoyong.
"Lao Wan, Director Wu wants to send someone up to do the test, is it convenient?"
Shi Hao felt that it was safer to send a professional staff to ensure the accuracy of the test results.
"Of course you can, we are now encouraging researchers to get involved more, and this time several teams will go up together." Wan Guoyong readily agreed.
"Director Wu, you send someone to come with me and bring your things."
Shi Hao hung up the phone and said directly to Wu Yunfa.
"I'll go with you."
Wu Yun-fat directly took off his white coat and began to clean up.
In fact, Shi Hao didn't want Wu Yunfa to go with him, he was a national treasure, and if there was danger, he would be in trouble.
But thinking about it, it still hasn't stopped, and it must be the general trend to conduct tests in space in the future, and they will have to go up sooner or later, and it will be safer to have their own protection by themselves.
Thinking of this, he directly called Mickey in, asked him to help Wu Yun-fat clean up, and told Mickey to pay attention to Wu Yun-fat's safety.
"Tian Ying, you take these two war pets with you, and when the new war pets are manufactured, I will customize one for you, and you will first think about what kind of one you want." Shi Hao handed over the battle pet to Tian Ying to command.
Two Taishan-level intelligent control robots followed Shi Hao on the left and right sides like two bodyguards, and if they both wore sunglasses, Brother Hao would be born.
The carrier pigeon is still responsible for communication, and all kinds of switches and equipment are all in place.
Two or three hours later, the crowded frisbee carried Shi Hao and them to the starship base. It was mainly full of Wu Yun-fat's various petri dishes and two staff members of the institute.
After arriving at the starship base, I saw that there were many people busy moving things next to the Pioneer, and Shi Hao roughly counted them, there were probably dozens of people.
"Lao Liu, hello."
Wu Yun-fat said hello from a distance.
Shi Hao saw that he also knew that it was Director Liu of the Laser Research Institute.
"Lao Wu, are you here too?"
Director Liu heard Wu Yun-fat's greeting and walked over to this side.
"Director Liu is good." Shi Hao looked at Director Liu who was approaching and greeted.
"General Shi, long time no see. You look a little different, more handsome and younger. ”
Director Liu also recognized Shi Hao, who was the one who received Shi Hao and Wan Guoyong when they went to consult about super laser weapons.
"This is the credit of Director Wu."
"Let's go over there." Shi Hao said and beckoned everyone to walk towards the entrance of the Pioneer.
Mickey and the carrier pigeon led the staff of the research institute and the two Taishan-level intelligent control robots to carry things to the Pioneer.
After receiving Shi Hao's call, Wan Guoyong and Deng Yuan walked out of the office building.
After Shi Hao and Deng Yuan greeted each other, the three of them stood there and chatted about things related to the starship base.
After chatting for a while, Shi Hao looked around and asked, "How are you going to try the super laser cannon?" ”
"This time it's with an advanced Earth test ship and a super laser cannon."
Deng Yuan explained.
"We added gravitational stones to create an advanced earth test ship the size of a reconnaissance ship, the hull is relatively small, and the endurance is only a few dozen hours, but the maximum speed is 15,000 km / s, which meets the standard of an advanced starship on the earth."
Wan Guoyong looked at Shi Hao, who was a little puzzled, and explained.
Through Wan Guoyong and Deng Yuan's further explanation, Shi Hao learned that the test ship was printed out in several modules with a 3D printer and then assembled, so it was completed in less than two months.
"Hello, Grandpa Shi."
At this time, a sweet female voice came.
Shi Hao turned his head to see that a short-haired beautiful woman wearing the uniform of an engineer of the Starship Research Institute was smiling and waving to him.
After a pause of two seconds, Shi Hao reacted and responded, "Xiaoxue, why are you here?" ”
It turned out that the beauty was Xu Yuan's high school classmate Yang Xue.
"I work here, and our project team is responsible for developing this test ship."
"General Shi, do you know Yang Xue? This is a talented woman in our research institute, and she has put forward many innovative ideas in the process of development. ”
Deng Yuan was full of praise for Yang Xue.
"His mother is the deputy general manager of Haoshi Group, and she is Xu Yuan's high school classmate." Shi Hao introduced the relationship between Wan Guoyong and Deng Yuan.
Yang Xue told Shi Hao that she would also follow, and when the time came, she would talk again, and she would go to work.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Wan Guoyong beckoned Shi Hao to board the Pioneer together, while Deng Yuan stayed at the base.
Xia Yunhan was standing outside the Pioneer, wearing a pilot's uniform, waiting for Wan Guoyong and them to approach, activating the switch to teleport Wan Guoyong into the Pioneer.
As soon as I entered, it was a boxy, enclosed space, with doors on all four walls.
Because considering that the scientific researchers are all ordinary (body shēn) bodies, Fang Zhiye and the others changed the layout of the Pioneer, and set up a mission module at the entrance, so that the oxygen in the inner cabin will not leak, and it is convenient for people wearing spacesuits to go out of the capsule in space.
After one of the doors opened, Wan Guoyong and Shi Hao walked in, and a young man welcomed Wan Guoyong to another room.
After a while, Wan Guoyong came out wearing a (身shēn) spacesuit.
"Because this is the first time that the Pioneer has taken ordinary people to space, for fear of unknown dangers, all ordinary people have to wear spacesuits and carry oxygen concentrators on their backs at all times."
Shi Hao and Wan Guoyong walked through a short hallway, and when an automatic door opened, they saw a rotunda with rows of seats in the middle.
"The design of the Pioneer is so easy to use, the space can be cut at will, and the tables, chairs and other items can be called up at will, and we are tackling this function."
Wan Guoyong said as he walked, pointing to the facilities in the hall.
When Shi Hao asked where the test ship was, Wan Guoyong said that there were four doors to enter the mission module, and one of the doors was the warehouse where the test ship was parked.
Soon, people boarded the Pioneer one after another, and the seats gradually filled up.
These seats automatically fine-tune to each person's body weight and then wrap the body inside for comfort and safety.
The main pilot of the Pioneer was Fang Zhiye, and he also brought four apprentices, including Xia Yunhan.
There were more than 40 people who went to space this time, in addition to a dozen people from the Starship Research Institute and the Laser Research Institute, there were also research teams in fields such as exploration, astronomy, energy, and intelligent control.
Fang Zhiye is now very proficient in controlling the Pioneer, and after everyone sat down, they felt that the body was light, and they entered a weightless state together with the hull, because Fang Zhiye controlled the hull to interfere with the earth's gravity.
Soon flew into outer space, and after a period of acceleration, Fang Zhiye turned on the simulated gravity in the cabin.
Everyone stood up and excitedly looked at the 360-degree holograms on the bulkhead.
Yang Xue looked at the gradually smaller earth, and couldn't help herself excitedly, although she had been in the Starship Research Institute for eight years, this was the first time she had been in space. The original Luna and Earth-class starships were developed by other teams.
She looked around the screen, then looked into the center of the hall, only to see Shi Hao, Mickey, and the carrier pigeon sitting boredly in their chairs.
"Aren't you interested in space?"
Yang Xue came to the three of them and asked.
"What's there to see about that? I'm tired of watching it, and I'm vomiting. ”
When Mickey heard Yang Xue's question, he immediately responded, vomiting as he spoke.
"Yang Xue, sit down."
Shi Hao saw that it was Yang Xue and beckoned her to sit down.
"Just blow it, how beautiful it is in space. From the time I started working, I had a wish to travel in space in a spaceship of my own design, preferably to every corner of space. ”
Although Yang Xue deals with steel and metal every day, it does not affect her simple girlish heart at all.
"Do you know that if we sit on this, it will take 25 years to fly outside the solar system, and you will fly to all corners of the universe, then... You have to live that long. ”
Mickey began to settle accounts for Yang Xue by himself.
"Can you live that long like you?"
Yang Xue knew that Shi Hao was a robot (身shēn) body, but she didn't know the specific situation. Seeing that none of them were wearing spacesuits, I was curious.
"That's ——, although I, Mickey, can't live with the universe, but I can definitely die with the universe." Mickey's true nature (sex xing) is revealed again.
"Blow again."
"Who said I was bragging, I know what we're going to see when we get to Jupiter from here, we still have a good friend on Europa, called Iron Egg."
Hearing the questioning, Mickey didn't do it. Especially if she is such a drifting beauty, she must not lose face.
"Let's go over there, and I'll tell you about it."
Mickey stood up and pulled Yang Xue towards the holographic screen.
Seeing this, Shi Hao smiled slightly, and let them go.
"Pigeon, you also learn from Mickey and go to talk to others, it takes more than ten hours to go along the way."
"Captain, you don't have to worry about me. I'm thinking about communication in space, and the communication device between Pioneer and Hunter is not the same as the structure on our planet. The communication distance is long, but it is fast. ”
"Oh, so can you figure out why?"
"I was a little eyebrow just now, and I have to ask Tie Dan if I have some questions."
"We'll be near Jupiter in ten hours, you can talk to him and tell us about going to Jupiter, and we'll have to buy some gravitational stones from him this time. Also, you tell him that we're going to test a super laser cannon on Europa, and he can take a look. ”
After listening to Shi Hao's words, the carrier pigeon stood up (body shēn) and went to find Fang Zhiye.
At this time, half of the people in the cabin were reduced, and after they were too excited, they began to go to the experimental cabin to conduct research and observation.
The experimental module is completely the same as the space environment, and it must be entered through the mission module.
Wu Yun-fat dragged two staff members over early to set up the petri dish and observe the growth of cells through a microscope, a real space environment that cannot be simulated on Earth.
"Iron egg, it's me, carrier pigeon."
Fang Zhiye opened the communication system that came with the Pioneer and quickly connected to Tiedan's Lietan.
"Oh, carrier pigeon, have you come to Earth?"
Iron Egg's muffled voice came out.
"We've been here for more than two months, and we're ready to go to Jupiter again."
"I'll go, I'll just soak in a hot spring here, and you'll come back. You earthlings are too diligent, aren't you? ”
"Hot springs? Where are the hot springs? ”
It's Ganymede, oh, you call it magma, it's a little hot, but it's still quite comfortable.
"it."
When the carrier pigeon heard Tie Dan's words, he couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth. But it's relieving to think about it, the iron egg has also collected energy on the sun, although it is on the periphery of the sun.
"Then you haven't refined the gravitational stone?"
"Gravitational stone?" Tie Dan didn't understand.
"It's the silvery-white powder you told us about that can detect gravity, and we named it gravitational stone." The carrier pigeon explained.
"Oh, that, it's been refined a lot, at least you can make five Hunters, the content here is too high." Iron Egg looked very excited when he talked about gravitational stone, which was hard currency on Stone Tartar.
"Our captain wants to buy some more. Plus, we're going to experiment with the Super Laser Cannon on Europa, and our captain invites you to come and see it. ”
"Okay, okay, that super laser gun is so powerful, I'm still looking forward to the laser cannon."
Subsequently, the two confirmed the arrival time and the location of the test.
After the call, the carrier pigeon came over to report to Shi Hao, and at this time Wan Guoyong had already sat back in his seat and was chatting with Shi Hao.
When the carrier pigeon said that the iron egg had allowed the Hunter to automatically refine the gravitational stone for the past two months, and then had been soaking in the hot spring in the magma, Wan Guoyong was stunned, thinking that this alien was too rebellious to soak in the hot spring in the magma.
"In fact, it is also understandable that the iron egg can collect energy in the outer part of the sun, and the temperature in the outer part of the sun is almost 6,000 degrees, and the temperature in his Hunter Tan is estimated to reach one or two thousand degrees."
"The volcanic magma on Europa, we haven't measured it, we don't know the exact temperature. But compared with the earth, we can see that the earth's volcanic magma is about 1,000 degrees, which is much cooler than the surface temperature of the sun. ”
Shi Hao saw Wan Guoyong's appearance and gave a detailed explanation.
"If I wore a protective suit and didn't let the magma directly burn my body, I guess I could stay in the magma for a few minutes."
Shi Hao is very confident in the current (身shēn) body, which seems to be just one more silicon element, but it brings complex changes to the entire molecular structure.
To be honest, the more Wan Guoyong understood Shi Hao's current (身shēn) body state, the more eyes (hot rè) he had. This is a superhuman existence in the eyes of ordinary people.
They were chatting when they were interrupted by two voices.
"Really? Then I'm going to go and see it. ”
"Yes, I'll take you there then."
At this time, Yang Xue and Mickey walked back while chatting.
"Where are you two going on a date?"
Shi Hao looked at the handsome guy and beautiful woman in front of him very right, and joked.
When Yang Xue heard this, her face flushed a little, and she quickly answered the call and changed the topic.
"Mitch said you found a large sapphire in the asteroid belt, and I'm going to see it when the time comes."
Women are inherently not resistant to gemstones, jewelry.
"Mickey, don't you have a chunk? You can ask Yang Minyu and ask him to help you find someone to design it, make it into sapphire jewelry, and then give it to Yang Xue. ”
Since Shi Hao's body was upgraded to the Songshan level, his thinking has also changed, and he no longer rejects men and women (情qing), and has begun to feel sorry for Mickey and the carrier pigeon.
From his heart, Mickey and carrier pigeons will be upgraded to Songshan level sooner or later, have a girlfriend, fall in love (love ài) or anything, and then get married and start a family, which is the joy of family.
With his seniority, he will not joke about Yang Xue for no reason.
He felt that if Yang Xue wanted to devote himself to the space career, he would have to change his body sooner or later, so as to greatly extend his lifespan, and in this way, it would be great if he could become a pair with Mickey.
Mickey is very ignorant of human beings, but he can't imagine being so deep, and when he heard Shi Hao's suggestion, he immediately said excitedly: "Yes——, I'll make one for you when I go back this time." ”
"Mickey, make a pair."
The carrier pigeon assisted on the side.
"Then you talk, I have to go and see if there is anything to deal with."
After Yang Xue finished speaking, she quickly ran away with a red face.
Mickey stood there with a confused expression, not understanding the meaning of the carrier pigeon, and said to himself, "Why didn't you answer and run away?" ”
"Okay, sit down, you'll understand when you're older."
When Shi Hao said the words "grown up", he deliberately added an accent.
Mitch scratched his head and sat down, a little confused.
More than ten hours passed very quickly for Shi Hao.
When they came to the vicinity of Jupiter, everyone except Shi Hao and them was deeply attracted by the gorgeous and magnificent Jupiter, and stood there for a long time.
Mickey didn't know when he stood with Yang Xue again.
"Below is a sea of liquid hydrogen and helium."
Mickey pointed to Jupiter and introduced to Yang Xue.
"It's like you've gone down."
"I've really gone down, and the iron egg will take us down."
"I don't believe it."
"When I take you to meet Tie Dan, you will believe it."
The two started the (qing) couple-like bickering chat mode.
Shi Hao listened to their words and couldn't help but smile when he saw Mickey's embarrassed appearance.
Suddenly, he remembered something and immediately called the carrier pigeon.
"You tell Tie Dan to let him observe in the dark, don't get too close to us."
Shi Hao felt that the existence of the iron egg could not be exposed to everyone, there were many people, and he didn't know how it would be spread after he went back.
The Pioneer flew straight in the direction of Europa, slowing down as it flew.
When it reaches Europa's outer space, it gradually slows down to zero, stays in Europa's synchronous orbit, and rotates with it.
Iron Egg had already landed on Europa's Antarctic ice in the Hunter.
The pigeon told him that it was estimated that it would take three or four hours of preparation before the trial of the super laser cannon began.
"Then I'm going to go down and take a shower, it's all water under the ice."
When the pigeon heard Tiedan's words, he understood how he could float in space for a year, that is, 10,000 years on the earth, because he was so good at having fun.
After cutting off communication, the Iron Egg flew towards Europa's equator, finding a relatively thin spot on the ice and coming to a halt.
He had the surface of the Hunter face facing down in a slightly raised position, directly facing the ice.
After a while, the Hunter began to spin at high speed and fell downward, and the whole Hunter was like a drill bit, drilling a large hole in the ice.
Instead of falling down with a "pop" as expected, the Hunter was pushed higher and higher by the gushing water column, and finally formed a balance and slowly spun on it.
After a while, the impact of the water column weakened, and the iron egg controlled the hunter to descend and burrow through the hole.
The ice is all water, and the Hunter is hollow, so it has to increase local gravity to sink.
Just as Tie Dan was swimming in the water with the Hunter, he suddenly felt hit by something, and the Hunter quickly retreated.
The iron egg was spinning in a daze.
As he struggled to adjust his direction, he was hit again.
At this time, he was a little panicked, and tried to adjust his direction again, and quickly observed the situation outside.
I saw a big monster swimming in the distance.
The monster's head was no smaller than the Hunter's, and there were countless tentacles waving around its body.
He quickly drove the Hunter to the top of the ice, trying to drill through the ice, but in the water, the rotation speed of the Hunter dropped significantly, and the drilling effect was greatly reduced.
Before he could fully spin away, he was caught up by the monster.
After tossing a dozen times, Tie Dan was about to cry.
At this time, I remembered that Shi Hao was on it, and quickly called the Pioneer.
As soon as Fang Zhiye connected it, he heard the iron egg inside shouting: "Help-help-"
Fang Zhiye hurriedly asked the carrier pigeon to call Shi Hao over.
"Iron Egg, what's going on?"
"I'm being chased by a monster, save me."
As he spoke, Tie Dan sent the image of the monster over, and Shi Hao and the others saw that the monster was about the same as the octopus, with a similar head and antennae.
It was large, but it swam very fast in the water, and the Hunter was slow and was quickly overtaken.
"You just get out of the water, you just go into the air."
Mickey was also anxious to watch from the side, and shouted at Tiedan.
"You foolish, if I can come out, do I need to ask you for help?"
Tie Dan heard Mickey's brainless question, and immediately came back.
"Ahh
"Let you scare me, this is retribution."
Mickey shouted gloatingly.
"Mickey, go aside, it's a joke and it depends on the time."
Mickey stuck out his tongue and walked to the side.
"Iron Egg, how do you think I can help you?"
It is necessary to find a solution, although the visual Hunter Tan is very durable, but for a long time, the iron egg is also turned to death.
"Get the ice out of the way, get a hole in the ice, and I'll get out. Ahh
"Okay, you wait for me, I want to find a way."
After Shi Hao finished speaking, he hurried to find Wan Guoyong.
"Lao Wan, how long will it take to prepare? Can a laser cannon penetrate Europa's ice? Shi Hao immediately whispered to Wan Guoyong about the situation of Tie Dan's distress, and he needed a super laser cannon to penetrate the ice to save people.
"Let's go find Lao Liu." After hearing this, Wan Guoyong immediately made a decision.
The two of them quickly came to the side of the reconnaissance ship, found Lao Liu, and explained their intentions.
"Whether you can break the ice or not depends on the height. If the reconnaissance ship is far away from the ice, the effect may be less. If it's closer, the effect is better. ”
"When will it start?"
"Almost, we've checked again, and it's time to teleport out."
"Let's all come out."
After Lao Liu finished speaking, he began to beckon everyone in the reconnaissance ship to come out.
"You don't need people to control it?"
"For the sake of safety, we don't leave anyone, we set the distance, and it will automatically shoot shè."
Shi Hao thought to himself, this is not good, you have to send (shoot shè) near the Hunter Tan to rescue the iron egg, if it is too far, when the iron egg rushes over, the hole will be frozen again.
"Director Liu, can you choose a position to aim, and then shoot (shoot)?"
"Somebody's got to be in there."
"I'll do it."
Shi Hao said directly.
"Lao Liu, you asked the staff to teach Shi Hao the ((cāo)cāo) control method, in order to better test the (sexual) ability of the new starship and the super laser cannon, we temporarily added a test project."
"Good. Yang Xue, you are responsible for explaining to General Shi the method of control. ”
When Shi Hao heard Director Liu's arrangement, he immediately walked into the cabin, and Yang Xue began to explain to Shi Hao module by module, afraid that Shi Hao would not remember, so she spoke slowly.
"Yang Xue, tell me at your fastest speed."
Shi Hao urged.
"Okay."
Yang Xue was stunned for a moment and replied. Then he sped up the speed of speech.
"Hurry up."
Fortunately, Yang Xue's Mandarin skills are good, and she worked as a host in school, and finally explained to Shi Hao almost at eight times the speed.
"Okay, I remember. Also, you can give me the manual ((cāo)cāo). ”
Yang Xue retreated in shock.
Shi Hao motioned to drive Mickey and the carrier pigeon out, thought about it for a while, and beckoned the two intelligent control robots into the cabin, and the three of them (body shēn) all carried small ion thrusters on their backs.
Shi Hao turned on the headset and tested the call with the carrier pigeon, then closed the hatch, and Fang Zhiye teleported the reconnaissance ship out.
