Chapter 38: The Return

What is the most superficial and striking thing about the Blue Ocean Star?

Of course, it's something called the blue ocean. It was a vast expanse of azure light connected by many vast oceans!

It is a very beautiful substance that can be used in reverie.

Then, you can consider landing directly inside it.

Compared to the consequences of a direct impact on the ground, and the uncertainty is extremely serious. Paglia thought about it, and the only way to do it was to land directly on the surface of the sea.

On the one hand, the large parachute of the "Meteorite" and the only remaining fuel can constitute a deceleration mechanism for the descent in the last leg of the voyage. On the other hand, the nature of the sea water itself determines that it is impossible to cause irreparable damage to the landing fuselage of the "Meteorite" after deceleration!

However, although the chaotic land cannot influence the first aspect, it far affects the passive implementation of the second aspect.

Paglia has been waiting for an opportune moment to turn on the parachute equipment of the Meteorite.

You know, a parachute for such a behemoth is not something that can sustain the scene with a larger umbrella surface.

It has dozens of main and secondary wings, each specially designed to respond to different environments and timings.

We can't just eat a fat man in one bite – try to use a parachute made of a composite material and make it work in any environment. This is obviously not possible.

Therefore, it is possible to change the way of thinking, that is, to create a parachute individually adapted to a special environment. In order to achieve the best condition for the landing of the "Meteorite"!

Anyway, the huge fuselage of the "Meteorite" does not lack several places where parachutes can be accommodated! It's a lot more convenient that way. It also has the hard power to fully guarantee the smooth landing of the fuselage.

But that may not be enough.

Thanks to the huge weight of the "Meteorite" itself, it is able to stably ensure that its center of gravity will not be shifted due to ordinary interference.

So the recoil speed limiter was naturally added to the launcher at the bottom of it.

What happens after the speed limit reaches a certain point?

It's still!

Therefore, the "Meteorite" has the ability to hover in the air for a short time, but because of the insufficient fuel reserves, it can only fall into the sea within a safe landing speed range with the parachute!

So in general, no matter how bad it is, it still has a huge storage belly, and the space inside it is enough for the "Meteorite" to have enough buoyancy to float on the surface of the sea without sinking!

Wouldn't it be wonderful!

The Meteorite has been on a downward trend since it passed through the atmosphere, but it has not yet reached the point of vertical landing.

At the moment it's just rushing down the front like a glider!

A strong feeling of weightlessness came, and even if Paglia could endure the current discomfort, he would never be able to endure the high-speed descent in the final stage, before the parachute opened and the recoil equipment worked!

The most important thing is that Xiaoyun, as a newborn child, is not fully developed in his entire physical condition.

As far as the heart is concerned, it may not be able to withstand such a stimulating activity! Paglia doesn't want to see that happen!

So he fixed himself in the center of the main console, and then turned on the gravity device of the autologous ecological device.

The feeling of weightlessness is counteracted by applying a force parallel to the gravitational force in the direction of the fall to the user inside. This is the basic structure of gravity equipment!

It is equivalent to creating a small unaffected space inside the rapidly falling "Meteorite", so as to achieve the purpose of protecting the user.

Paglia suddenly felt that her surroundings had calmed down, and Xiaoyun was still asleep. It seems that as a child who was not born in the blue ocean star, he has no fear of flying.

So it was in the past, and so it was in the past. Paglia reads a lot of literature to ensure that Xiaoyun thrives here.

At least for now, it seems that there are no bad signs for Xiao Xiaoyun.

In addition to drinking milk, he is sleeping, and then he still drinks milk, and he still sleeps!

It's like this in the early stages of children!

It's very simple and gentle!

Paglia carefully searches the screen for a place to land!

Although the ocean occupies a very large and vast area, because of its unique geographical environment, Paglia cannot rashly choose the landing site.

The "Meteorite" is still gliding in this world like a kite with a broken string, and the temperature on the surface has long since cooled down, far losing the dazzling flame brilliance just now.

Paglia carefully collated the map database on the Meteorite and the data storage units in her own ecological device, and found the most likely place to remain on the surface of the deep sea.

Because the ocean at the edge of the ocean has been affected by possible shock waves due to the landscape, it may be completely different from the original.

Therefore, it is necessary to choose the landing site carefully.

The final stage is still coming, and the entire body part of the "Meteorite" has shown a state of free fall through the clouds, and it is getting faster and faster.

Paglia saw the right moment, and finally opened the button of the parachute with the anticipation of reaching the ground in sixty seconds.

If you look at it from the outside. You can find that the huge body of the "Meteorite" suddenly has a few pieces of silver parachute cloth, which are made of special materials, which can fully resist the powerful tearing force of gravity.

Moreover, the reason why the surface is made silver is of special significance. That can facilitate the ground personnel to accurately discover the actual location of the landed object at the first time through aerial technical reconnaissance means.

After all, reflective things always maintain a high attraction in nature. It is also a unique law of life.

But now that it's not topping, Puglia doesn't know if there are any humans on the ground who can be called human.

The survivors must have suffered greatly. Both on the surface of the body and deeply buried in the mind.

Puglia clearly understood what kind of mess she was in front of her, with hundreds of deadly nuclear weapons accurately and evenly distributed across all the lands where humans had ever lived.

None of them were spared, and the extremely scattered land of the archipelago was often unable to withstand the impact of nearby explosions. Although, on average, the distance of the ring of each explosion point on the Blue Ocean Star will not exceed a thousand kilometers, is it huge? Apparently for the conspirators, it was completely sufficient.

You can't imagine the despair of the apocalypse, maybe something can only survive at the intersection of multiple kilometers within a radius of 1,000 kilometers, but all infrastructure has lost its basic functioning capabilities.

What's the difference between this and people going back to the Stone Age?

Besides, everything that remains will change in some unpredictable direction. It doesn't matter if those are good or bad. Because there is no clear definition of right and wrong.

For example, if your body has been mutated to have amazing powers that you could not have believed in your previous normal state, or some other organ has been mutated to allow you to soar like a bird above the sky full of fire and death.

Can you see if it's good or bad? Obviously not. Because we have lost the meaning of being a human being—to maintain the basic functioning of society. But when society is gone, you feel the unparalleled loneliness enveloping you.

Perhaps at that time, the basic nature of being human had been lost, which was humanity. Rather, like an animal, it controls its behavior with its simple animal nature that has been passed down from time immemorial, can this be considered something to be proud of?

After a short thirty seconds, Paglia resolutely turned on the operating mechanism of the recoil equipment. They had already warmed up, just waiting for an order from the man in control, Paglia.

I can fulfill my mission, and maybe this is the last chance.

Including the entire "Meteorite" should be the last job, it may stay forever in the sea below it and drift with the current, and then be eroded by time for many years.

Paglia stared nervously at the monitor in front of him, still focused on the image of the outside camera as the rate of altitude reduction slowed.

What he wanted was to see a blue curtain of light, and he didn't have to delve into the details. Because only the blue light curtain is the most primitive way for humans to understand the ocean, no matter where it is appropriate.

Immediately after, the tense thread in his heart relaxed, not like the situation of pulling and breaking just now.

Because he had clearly felt the faint impact sensation coming from the "Meteorite", which was obviously caused by the collision between its bottom and the sea surface. No matter how large the body of the "Meteorite" is, the shock absorption system inside it still cannot completely eliminate the lucid feeling of this impact.

But that's exactly what Paglia desperately wanted to experience at this time.

Because it's a real feeling to be back home, no matter what she's been through and what she's been through, it's impossible to change the fact that she's our home planet.

There was nothing fancy about it, and the whole landing seemed so smooth.

Paglia can't wait to get out of the control cabin and see the ocean that truly belongs to memory.

"I was expecting to come over for a vacation with Sanrou." , Paglia couldn't help but think about this and burst into tears.

Xiao Yun had been awake for a while, and he looked at the man in front of him with his innocent eyes wide open, completely unable to understand what was going on. It's just dancing alone, as if trying to attract the man's attention.

Paglia wiped her eyes and looked at the little cloud in her arms, which was tightly pinched, blinking her big eyes, thinking that he was hungry. In a panic, he opened the food storage box specially prepared for Xiaoyun before.

It contained all the little clouds that Paglia could collect at the moment and could barely accept it. Milk powder accounts for half of it. As for some batter, Xiaoyun is still happy to try it after soaking up.

Paglia brewed another glass of milk and tried to feed it to Xiaoyun.

But this time he didn't accept it obediently, but threw his hands and kicked his little feet even more excitedly.

Puglia was confused, but she might as well take Xiaoyun out to see how it was going.

He opened all the sealed alloy doors of the chamber and made his way to the main entrance. Here, on the contrary, he seems a little hesitant, as if he does not have the courage to recognize the facts of the outside world.

However, since it has come to this point, let's choose to take this step!
