Chapter Ninety-Five: A Precious Gift

The manned compartment is located in the middle of the spacecraft, and the head of the spacecraft is the equipment compartment, and a black line marked "oxygen pipe" is pulled from the bottom of the fuel tank to the bow of the ship, and is connected to a cylindrical sealed container in the equipment compartment.

The side of the cylindrical container facing the manned cabin is densely covered with black lines, like a girl's long black hair. They are the starting point of air circulation, which at first glance may seem a bit chaotic, but if you look along the different lines, you will see that each black line points to a vent carved into the interior of the ship. The largest of those vents were only a centimeter in diameter, but they were large enough to keep the cabin oxygenated.

With the current level of knowledge, even if Hai Ge saw the real thing with his own eyes, it is difficult to be sure that this "nuclear fusion oxygen production system" can really work, ensuring that the earth pilot sitting in the manned capsule will not suffocate due to lack of oxygen.

But he had no fear, relying on the fact that he had not been dealing with Wedel for a long time, but his sense of trust was growing. By now, he had revered Wedel as he had revered his father, and what his father said must be credible!

Since the drive and feeding systems can be regarded as the same whole, Wedel does not explain much about the power fuel used by the Huoyi, but simply tells Hai Ge that the endurance of nuclear fuel is at least 10,000 times higher than the hydrogen and oxygen fuel currently used by the Earth spacecraft, so even if the oxygen in the manned capsule is really exhausted after 2,000 years, the spacecraft will still fly along the established route.

When it comes to routes, Haige is naturally more inquisitive - to help the poor big guy "escape" from prison, the design of the escape route is crucial. But for the Redeeming Light organization, this is no longer an unanswered question, indicating that they have determined the coordinates of the destination that the first station on Earth will eventually reach, so where is the temporary new home of Earth?

From Haige's puzzled expression, Wedel could guess that he was in a hurry, and if he didn't say the answer soon, he would have to ask a series of questions again.

However, Wedel sold the guanzi, and the conversation still revolved around the Huoyi.

"Kid, can you tell me if you like the beautiful exterior of this towed spaceship and its remarkable internal structure?" Wedel asked.

Hai Ge nodded without blinking, he didn't just like it, he was simply infatuated. He couldn't imagine what it would be like to sit in a handsome spacesuit, and he was ashamed to think that he didn't deserve such a great spaceship, and that Elle was the only one qualified to fly it......

Wedel smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, I'm glad you can accept it with such enthusiasm." Well, when the Hoi is ready, it'll be yours. As for this model, I will destroy it for safety. ”

"What?!" Haige really couldn't accept Wedel's handling of the model of the Fire Yiren!

First of all, he didn't expect that this spaceship, which could fly in the universe for at least two thousand years, was a gift that Wedel had planned to give to his beloved daughter. Secondly, the model was so beautiful, and he had put a lot of effort into building it, and it certainly consumed no less energy than super metal, so why was he willing to destroy it?

Seeing that Hai Ge was so reluctant, Wedel said magnanimously: "Don't think that this model is priceless, it must exist in the world. In fact, your personal value to me, to U star, and to the earth is far more than any treasure. I've entrusted you with the task of recreating the Wedel-U civilization and taking you on a virtual voyage through the Pacific Ocean aboard the Hoi Man model to teach you the necessary knowledge you need to navigate the planet to escape the solar helium flash disaster in the future. It's a very meaningful piece of work, and once it's done, the model ends its mission, so why should you bemoan its disappearance? ”

"I ...... Actually, I think that the robot will find many kinds of spaceships for me, such as the Blue Whale 700, you don't need to pass on Elle's gift to me......" Haige timidly refused.

The value of this spaceship cannot be measured in specific numbers at all, it is not that he does not want it, but he deserves it. In order to be reborn one day, Elle did not hesitate to rescue her father and die together with her mother, what a brave girl she was, only she deserved to be in such a spaceship!

"That's different!" Wedel decisively denied: "When it comes to towing spaceships, no matter which one of them is not comparable to a variable star, not to mention that by increasing the speed of the spacecraft, its towing capacity has been greatly increased!" That makes it even less likely that you'll find a replacement for it. Most of the types of spaceships stored in the Brain Core of Success were collected by me, so I knew very well that even on a planet with the most advanced shipbuilding technology, the number of light-speed ships was extremely limited, let alone dragging a big burden forward! ”

"Yes, the speed of light ......" Hai Ge muttered thoughtfully, and also understood that now was not the time to be humble, he should not drag mud and water like this.

Seeing that he agreed to accept, Wedell breathed a sigh of relief and advised, "Any lightspeed ship has a backup option, and you can choose or switch between light-speed and non-light-speed sailing modes. Flying at the speed of light, you'll have to depressurize the inner compartment at the same time as the engine starts, so you don't have to kill yourself when accelerating beyond the maximum overload tolerance. Another point is that, unlike other light-speed ships, the Fire Man must sail along a trajectory, and after de-orbiting, it can only travel at normal speed, which is also a protective measure for the ship. However, it is also possible to deviate from orbit if the speed is too fast on the track, and the fuel consumed is thirty times that of normal navigation. If you don't want to waste fuel on the silly task of trying to get back on track, it's better to avoid using light-speed flight mode. ”

"Hmm!" Hai Ge nodded obediently, as if he was about to get dressed and sit in the cockpit.

After saying all that, Wedell clicked on the display screen again, and the holographic image switched back from the ship's structure diagram to the scenic nautical chart. This time, the ratio of the chart to the real scene is expanded, and Haige sees not only the blue sea, but also some scattered islands in the distance, and then there are boats, so the picture is lively.

"Kid, although the model of the Fire Iren we see now is like a dazzling jewel spaceship, I am afraid that you will be disappointed when you see the real thing. Its exterior will be completely obscured by Kevlar 49 and titanium alloy composites, and it will only look like an ordinary cruise ship floating on the high seas of the Pacific Ocean with no fixed port of call. Weddle said.

"Into the high seas of the Pacific Ocean? Why should we go there? Haige asked, puzzled.

Wedel shook his head: "Don't use the word 'we', when you board the ship of the Fire Person, the voyage may be lonely." ”

At this point, he glanced at the square pendant hanging on his chest with great meaning, the word "maybe" is evocative.
