Pan Wentao had been driving the nuclear-powered spacecraft to Earth in a parabola for four days, and just as he was approaching the lunar orbit, he received a warning message from the moon. It turned out that the International Space Station on Earth had been destroyed, and the owners of the ISS temporarily fled to a lunar shelter.

"What destroyed the ISS?"

Pan Wentao touched the back of his head, he didn't expect such a change at all. The nuclear-powered transport spacecraft cannot land directly on the ground, but can only shuttle through space, and they must transfer to the International Space Station.

Now that the ISS has been destroyed, their idea of returning to the ground has come to naught.

The screen is filled with real-time footage of Lu Yuan, the Supreme Commander of the International Space Station:

"Brother Wen Tao, you may not know that this white ball doesn't seem to have any effect, it is looking out from the earth. Now the earth can only go out, not enter. We have tested it and paid an irreparable price for it. ”

"How does this work?"

"The specific principle is unknown, the rocket sent from the earth can pass through the white ball, and any vehicle that can be sent to the ground from the universe cannot pass through the white ball. This is how the ISS was cut in half. After that, we tried other flying machines, and the result was the same, it would be cut into invisible pieces and become cosmic dust. ”

"So, the reason why the Earth didn't reply is that our signal to the Earth was also intercepted?"

"Yes, now we can only receive messages from the ground, and they can't receive any information from the universe anymore. The ground command center, which is now completely non-existent, and the moon is now a temporary command center. ”

Knowing this kind of information, Pan Wentao was at a loss, hesitated for a while, and only drove the spacecraft to temporarily land on the moon, and met with the people on the lunar shelter first to further understand the situation.

Lu Yuan was full of enthusiasm for this Martian visitor, and as soon as they met, he began to introduce the specific situation of the temporary shelter on the moon:

"Now all the resources on the moon are only enough to last for about one month, and in one month, these more than 200 people will face lack of oxygen and freeze to death. At present, the moon does not have such a complete self-sufficiency system as on Mars, and all resources are still transported on the ground. ”

Pan Wentao had already thought of the dilemma encountered by this commander. The moon was only a temporary refuge, and it used to be the main base for mining, but it has now been discontinued due to its high cost, the scope of application of the mine is too narrow, and the commercial prospects are not too high.

The shelter in front of you was renovated from the mining base at that time, and its space and material reserves were very limited. Pan Wentao smiled, looked at the tall and burly Shandong man in front of him, who exuded a sense of justice all over his body, and said:

"A month? Chief Lu seems to be a little optimistic! ”

Lu Yuan couldn't hide it, and smiled embarrassedly: "It is said that Pan Wentao has vicious eyes and does things with style, it seems that he can't hide anything from you!" ”

"I can understand you, you don't want people to despair too much, but time is running out for us, and we don't have much choice."

Lu Yuan's face was long, and his forehead was covered with wrinkles of sorrow.

The lunar shelter could last for months in terms of space and air resources, but the food reserves were pitiful. Now there are more than 200 people gathered here, and more than 200 mouths have to eat and drink every day.

If these 200 people, once they run out of food, then the tragedy of cannibalism will be staged in this small place like mud pills, which is impossible not to think of in advance as the supreme commander. At this moment, the hierarchy of order built up by human civilization is facing unprecedented challenges.

It was not the first time that Pan Wentao and Lu Yuan had come into contact with each other, this young and capable young man was still raised by himself at that time, and he was just a space station spacecraft maintenance worker at the beginning, far from meeting the criteria for joining the Mars program.

Later, because of the Mars plan, it was necessary to build a transportation channel between the earth and Mars, and it was also in a state of shortage of people at that time. Lu Yuanhao did not hesitate to recommend Pan Wentao, who was born in a military family, to his superiors. What he didn't expect was that he was still very competitive, and he repeatedly made miraculous achievements, and every time he escaped death and became a hero in the Mars project.

At present, if he is asked to choose who will appear immediately, he will not hesitate to choose Pan Wentao. I didn't think about it, as if God had arranged it, and it happened that at this time, the person he most wanted to see fell from the sky, which made him overjoyed.

"Wen Tao," he pulled Pan Wentao and quietly entered the office, "In fact, as you expected, the air regeneration system here is currently the most advanced, and it is not a problem for these more than 200 people to live for a few months, but ......"

"But you can't let them eat people!"

"But I don't have much to do. Now among the more than 200 people, there are only more than 40 scientists, and the other 160 or so people are all soldiers! They were the first space soldiers in human history, but they didn't expect to be in such a situation now, and even did terrible things. ”

"It's ironic that scientists are the first to suffer. We have to think about how to get out of this situation, how long can we last on food at the moment? ”

Lu Yuan touched his pocket, took out a palm-sized piece of dry food from his mysterious underwear pocket, and said tremblingly:

"If nothing goes wrong, you're looking at the last piece of dry food! This morning there has been a complete lack of food, and in order to prevent people from rioting, I have already announced that I have contacted Mars and will send supplies from Mars...... I didn't expect you to arrive so soon...... Perhaps the Earth should also think that we have reached a temporary shelter on the moon, and they may have launched a rescue plan. ”

Pan Wentao looked at the half piece of dry food in Lu Yuan's hand, which was like a treasure, and felt a little bitter in his heart, he didn't expect the form to be so grim. Lu Yuan must have suffered a lot in order to save food for others.

"You're thinking too much," Pan Wentao said fiercely, "the ground has obviously given up any space support, because everything doesn't mean much to them now." We have become new humans in the cosmic cage, and as long as the white ball exists, we will be imprisoned for one day. ”

Lu Yuan naturally knew that it was obviously impossible to transport food supplies from Earth to the Moon. The Martian is a delaying tactic used to appease those soldiers, but the scientists in front of them are well aware of the difficulties.

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the office door. The person who came was none other than the Captain of the Space Force - Gumi.

Seeing Pan Wentao, the savior of Mars, he couldn't hide the excitement on his face: "Captain Pan, your rescue came too timely." ”

Pan Wentao's hand was a little numb by the Russian man's hand, and he greeted with a smile:

"Mars has already received a distress signal from the Moon, isn't this just in time? I'm the advance force, and there's a huge transport ship behind me, so you can stay here in peace for the time being. ”

Hearing Pan Wentao say that Mars had begun to rescue, this tough guy was grateful and thanked him vigorously.

"Is there anything else you can do?"

Regarding Gu Mi's arrival, Lu Yuan didn't show much welcome.

"Of course, Chief Lu." Gu Mi straightened up, "Some people are sick, I want to ask what to do?" We don't have any medical equipment, so do we need to isolate them? ”

Pan Wentao already knew at a glance that the captain in front of him was the one who held the real power here, after all, there were many of them. The soldiers were almost all on his side, and only the scientists were on Lu Yuan's side.

Although Lu Yuan was the commander-in-chief, it was impossible to order this group of soldiers. Obviously, he didn't come here to report the news, but to inquire about the news.

"Is there anything you can do? Captain Gumi? Lu Yuan did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Gu Mi didn't mean to be polite at all, and said directly: "I've already isolated them!" If it infects other people, then the last fire of humanity will be blown out. ”

"No problem," Lu Yuan said, "You're doing a good job, captain." ”

Gumi smiled heroically and said, "We can't wait here for supplies for a long time, right?" Now the earth can't go back, but ......"

He glanced at Pan Wentao and continued:

"The base on Mars has now become our last home to visit. I don't know what you think, Commander-in-Chief? ”
