Chapter Seventy-One: The Journey to the Stars
The entire spacecraft is made of this wonderful material, Sun Tan roughly estimated, the spacecraft accounts for 60% of the mass of the moon, the part near the back is shallower, the stratum on the front of the moon is thicker, the surface of the spacecraft is deposited with the material brought by the liquid earth hundreds of millions of years ago, and the solar wind that erupts from time to time continues to bring a large amount of cosmic dust to the moon, and it has gone through an unknown number of years of precipitation before it has become such a thick and smooth lunar surface today.
The excavation lasted three days, and after opening enough sections for research and development, the researchers covered the excavation site with a special film of colored oil so that it would not be detected by the spy satellites of Minsk**.
How to use and study it has become the biggest problem, and there is also a debate within the Earth faction, some people think that such a huge discovery cannot be enjoyed exclusively, and it must be announced so that the people of the whole moon can join the plan to develop the spacecraft, but several Earth faction elders led by Zibelin think that it must be controlled in their hands, their opinion is that Minsk's ambition is too great, once he knows about the spaceship, the control of the spacecraft will definitely fall into his hands, and joint development is impossible, But everyone could feel the greed they couldn't hide.
Everyone wants it, everyone wants to possess this God-given treasure.
In the end, it was Zibelin who overrode the crowd and carried out his proposal, and the secrets of the lunar ship would be hidden until they found a way to control the ship, and they would only reveal the ship if they were sure that the ship was completely under the control of the Earth faction.
However, the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, the moon has long been caught in a huge whirlpool that is difficult to break free, no one can get out of it if they want to, the more people cover up some things, the more they want to cover up, this secret that has been hidden for countless centuries, once it is born, it is no longer a secret.
There was no wind on the moon, and there were no reeds, but the secret of the spaceship was heard by the reeds next to the cave, and it was spread to a distant place with the wind.
Maybe it was Minsk's spy satellite that discovered the anomaly first, or it was possible that there were undercover agents hidden among the expedition members, in short, no matter what the reason, Minsk** quickly learned the whereabouts of the spaceship, and the matter of Mark's connection with the Earth faction was also found out, Sun Tan was still at the excavation site at this time, although it had long passed the time when he could safely leave the surveillance area, but he was so focused on the miracle spaceship that he had completely forgotten that he was not free.
And Mark and Nina were unlucky, they were still in the residence in City One at this time, still under the control of Minsk, that night Nina realized that Sun Tan came back later than usual, but didn't know what happened, and Mark stayed in his room very worried, he didn't know how the plan for quantum telecommunication was going, and the mysterious cube did not release the earth after receiving the signal? Why hasn't the moon received any news until now? If the hijackers give up hijacking the Earth, then the signal blocking of the Earth should be lifted as soon as possible, why is there no movement at all now...... Did their plan fail to stump them?
Mark felt that every minute and every second passed very long, he always felt that the next moment the signal of the earth would reach here, the news of the successful resolution of the crisis would spread all over the moon, and the people of the whole world would cheer and hug each other and cry, but he kept waiting, waiting, and this moment never came.
Suddenly, he noticed a knock in the door of the room, Mark's room was large, and he didn't like to turn on music and air conditioning, so he could hear the slightest movement clearly.
After all, the man was under the fence, and the man was still a tyrannical careerist, it would not be okay not to be cautious, Mark immediately stopped, picked up a bat as a weapon, and tiptoed to the entrance, he did not find anything unusual, just when Mark thought that his nerves were too sensitive, suddenly a dark shadow flashed out from behind him, and the man sneaked in and hid in the curtain behind the door.
"Hmm! Not! As soon as Mark wanted to speak, he was covered by the man, a pair of delicate but powerful hands, with a faint fragrance, as if he had smelled somewhere.
"Shhhh Don't make a sound, it's me! Mark's voice rang in Nina's ear.
"Nina? How did you get here? ”
"We have to get out of here, Minsk has already done it, but fortunately I haven't let my guard down." Nina threw a thin metal needle to the ground, and the needle rolled twice on the carpet, emitting a silver sheen, "Neurotoxin, 0.3 milliliters can be fatal, the assassin has been put down by me, and there are still many people looking for me in the building, and they will find this place soon." ”
"Why did Minsk do it at this time...... Obviously, we still have ...... use value," Mark was puzzled.
"Something must have happened to Sun Tan, I went to the secret laboratory underground, the building was empty, the facilities had been moved, and Sun Tan hadn't come back until now...... It's not right, we've got to go to him. Nina lowered her voice and said, "Is there any way you can get out of this building?" ”
"No...... If Sun Tan was here, he would definitely have a way, and he could get the transportation with any hacking methods. Mark said with a sad face, he had wanted to get the keys to his car, but Minsk's orders were very strict, and his men did not dare to let Mark get any resources that he could use.
"Now we're on our own." Nina sighed and looked out the window, "If you can't get a car, at least get a protective suit, I know there is a fire escape that leads to the outside world, as long as we are careful to avoid the surveillance ......"
"It's not like I haven't thought about it, it's just too risky, there are patrol drones outside, and if you are found, you will be beaten into a sieve on the spot." Mark had also carefully investigated his surroundings during this time, and if he could run, he would have run a long time ago.
The periphery of the White Tree Building is covered with this layer of special oil film substance, which is more professional than the protective layer used in the outer ring of the city, which can be regarded as a double insurance, it can not only block the blow of miniature meteorites, but also protect against a certain degree of fire bombardment, after all, this is the residence and office of Minsk, the security protection is still very tight, there are countless drones patrolling around the outer layer of the building day and night, and it is more difficult to sneak out than to sneak in.
"I've got a crazy idea, would you like to try it?"
