Chapter 506: Return to Earth
Andor had no objection to Joru's assignment, stealing the Death Star blueprints was a much more dangerous task, and even more difficult for them to do if they couldn't even do it for the Jedi.
In comparison, rescuing Jean's father, Galen Urso, is undoubtedly much simpler, at least there is no planetary shield force field there, so there is no need to worry about being trapped inside without support.
"Understood, I'll report to the Alliance and ask for their assistance." Captain Andor said.
Qiao Lu nodded and said, "If you guys are in trouble over there, I can also help a little here." ”
So the two sides officially went their separate ways, and Andor and his party rushed directly to save Galen Urso, and the design of the Death Star was up to Qiao Lu to figure out a way.
Such a dangerous operation naturally requires long-term consideration, so Qiao Lu and 2B first returned to the 10,000-year-old Blizzard, and at the same time needed to explain the current situation to the coalition government.
As soon as Qiao Lu piloted the flying mecha to land on the 10,000-year-old Blizzard, he said to Liu Peiqiang, who had been waiting here for a long time in the first retreat:
"Liu Peiqiang, you lead a team to follow them to rescue Galen Ersor, he is an outstanding scientist, if he can successfully recruit, he will also be a rare talent for us."
Scientists who can design the Death Star Super Laser Cannon will of course be of considerable help to the study of Earth Cannons.
The most important thing is that Amdo is not his own person after all, and Qiao Lu of course still trusts Liu Peiqiang's ability more.
"Understood."
Although he had just escaped death from Jada, Liu Peiqiang still accepted the task without hesitation, which is why Qiao Lu trusted him so much.
In order to carry out this mission, they also need to use the 10,000-year-old Blizzard, which means that Qiao Lu will need another starship, the Ark, for which he needs to return to the Wandering Earth first.
If Jolu remembers correctly, in the event of a danger to Scarif, Darth Vader, the famous villain of Star Wars, will lead his flagship, the Super Star Destroyer, to come to his aid.
The Executor is more than ten times the size of an Imperial-class Star Destroyer, reaching a staggering 19 kilometers in length, even surpassing the Leviathan, the flagship of the Queen of Blades encountered last time in the StarCraft plane, and second only to the Spear of Arden, the Doomsday Ark of the Star Spirits!
If you want to escape from the hands of such a terrifying super Star Destroyer, the fire support of the Ark is even more essential.
It could even turn into an earth-shattering space fleet battle, and you have to be fully prepared.
So the 10,000-year-old Blizzard first sent Qiao Lu and 2B back to the Wandering Earth, and then took Liu Peiqiang and others to carry out the mission of rescuing Galen Urso.
As soon as he returned to the Wandering Earth, Qiao Lu found that the top level of the coalition government was holding an emergency meeting, and it was natural that they were discussing how to deal with the Death Star.
After destroying the planet Jada, the Death Star departed in a high-profile manner, leaving behind only a cloud of dust that continued to spread across the galaxy, the only trace of the planet's existence.
In this case, it is definitely not wise at all to let the Wandering Earth rush directly to face off against the Death Star.
Therefore, only after the trace of the Death Star has completely disappeared, the wandering Earth begins to dock into the Jada system, and immediately stops the planetary engine and activates the planetary shielding force field after entering orbit, lest the Death Star will turn back.
There is no way, this cannon falling on Earth is the same result, and the coalition government does not want the Wandering Earth and Planet Jeda to be wiped out under the super laser cannon of the Death Star.
At the same time, the Central Academy of Sciences also detected the energy core of the Death Star, which is the energy source for the Wandering Earth to travel to the next plane.
Therefore, the coalition government is now in a dilemma, the risk of the Wandering Earth being destroyed by the Death Star, and the probability of entering a state of destruction in the quantum collapse, which side is greater, has now had to be weighed.
Derek of the United States said solemnly: "You have all seen that it is absolutely unwise to fight with something like that, and now that we have reduced the risk of collapse to one in seven, wouldn't it be wiser not to challenge that thing?" ”
Although it sounds a little frustrating, I have to say that this is a very real problem, and the showdown with the Death Star is too dangerous, compared to the quantum collapse with only a 1 in 7 probability of destruction, it seems that it is not an unacceptable thing.
"I agree with Derek." The representative of France, Bevin said, "No matter how you look at it, we should not take that risk again. ”
The quantum collapse still has at least a six-seventh survival rate, but the fact that it was over with a single shot from the Death Star's super laser cannon will undoubtedly make people think about backing down.
Luo Feng, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, did not rush to make a conclusion, but just listened carefully to everyone's opinions and said:
"Let's wait for Qiao Lu to come back, he is also a member of the permanent council representatives, and we can't make decisions in his absence."
"Anyway, this time we have to change course." Derek insisted on his opinion, "This is for the survival of all mankind, and there should be no greater risk to let the wandering earth continue to move forward!" ”
To be honest, this is a long-standing contradiction within the coalition government, with the difference of opinion between the Advance and Remainder factions in the same way that the Earth faction and the spaceship faction once debated.
It's just that in the past, because the probability of quantum collapse to a state of destruction was too high, and the enemy was not enough to threaten the safety of the Wandering Earth itself, the overall opinion has always been to let the Wandering Earth continue to move forward.
However, now that the Wandering Earth has encountered a Death Star that is enough to destroy it with one shot, and the probability of quantum collapse to a state of destruction has been reduced to one in seven, this contradiction has finally begun to erupt.
Not everyone has a strong will to take their fate into their own hands, and when it is possible to sit back and hope for a good result, there are still many people who are willing to stop and count on the favor of God to get through the difficulties.
This can be described as human nature, even Qiao Lu is undeniable.
What's more, now, the Wandering Earth has overcome countless difficulties with hard work, and the probability of quantum collapse to a state of destruction has been reduced to one in seven, which is achieved by the bloody struggle of countless people.
Therefore, some people will also question whether it is enough to work hard to this extent, and it is time to do everything and obey the destiny of heaven, and it is okay not to continue to cross?
This high-level emergency meeting of the coalition government is aimed at resolving this issue.
Before he can find a way to fight against the Death Star, Qiao Lu needs another reason to keep the Wandering Earth going!
