Chapter 132: Methods of Obtaining Neutron Matter

Suddenly, many people in the command cabin showed embarrassed looks on their faces. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Those present were silent for a long time, but none of them came up with any ideas, and none of them even spoke. Everyone was pondering how to solve the problems raised by Dart.

In the end, it was Zhou Xin who broke the silence in the command module, "Indeed, with our current capabilities, it is still too difficult to unknowingly obtain neutron matter from the Kazlan people, and there is no way to do this with only a few detectors." ”

"I'm afraid you won't be able to do it with the detector alone." Dart continued, "Compared to a real person, the detector has its limitations. ”

"The old way, wouldn't it be nice to let the family control it." Atlas interjected at this point, "People are not comparable to the stupid intelligence of those detectors. ”

"It's not a question of who controls it, it's just a matter of operation, just let some people go to the simulation cabin to control it." Zhou Xin understood what Dart meant, and he opened his mouth to explain, "The most likely location of neutron matter is in the military or scientific research units of the Kazlans, and no matter which one it is, there will definitely be some strange protective equipment in it. If it happens that some of the devices happen to block our communication with the detector, it will be the same no matter who controls it. Seeing that the little girl's face was still a little unconvinced, Zhou Xin continued, "Even if you can crack these devices as quickly as possible, there is always a long or short window period in the process of cracking. If something happens to the probe during that time, mission failure is secondary, and if our existence is discovered, then we won't even have a second chance. ”

"And." Dart added, "What if it's the kind of jamming device that can't interact at all, no matter how strong your ability is, there's no way to crack it." ”

After Dart finished replenishing, the little girl's head bowed, and she said sullenly, "Then what are you going to do, do you really have to send someone down?" ”

"That's not realistic." Spred spoke, "No matter what race the Voyager is, the appearance is too different from that of the Kazrans, and it is almost impossible not to arouse their suspicion if you appear in front of them. Not to mention entering any scientific research or military facilities, you don't need to think about it to know that there must be a strict identity verification system inside, and maybe you won't even be able to enter the gate before you will be discovered. What's moreβ€”" he said, gesturing to the screen "What's more, this is the case in the sky above the Northern Continent now, do you think we have any way to send people down?" ”

Looking at the large and small warships on the screen, Zhou Xin's mood seemed slightly irritable, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, can we just wait for the neutron matter to be delivered to the door by itself?" ”

"It's not impossibleβ€”" After hearing Zhou Xin's obviously emotional words, a thought suddenly flashed through Spred's heart, "Maybe we can really get neutron matter to be delivered to the door." ”

"How is it possible, you're kidding." Spred's whimsical idea made Dart laugh. Even Zhou Xin's face showed a look of disbelief, and he also teased according to Spred's words: "Could it be that Spred, what other magical power do you have to make neutron matter run to our spaceship on its own long legs?" ”

"Do you have to bother it to take two more steps and obediently walk to the core of the warp engine, so that we can save even the effort of setting it ourselves." Dart replied.

"How could you think like that?" Suddenly, Spred's face showed a look of crying and laughing, and then he spread his hands helplessly, "But to disappoint you, I don't have this ability." And if I really had this ability, maybe I would have found a lot of neutron matter a long time ago, and now we don't need to think of anything here. We're not talking about the same thing at all. ”

"Then what do you have to do?" Listening to Spred's tone, Zhou Xin felt that his previous words didn't seem to be a joke, so the expression on Zhou Xin's face became serious.

"I can't let neutron matter grow legs, and I don't mean to let it run over on legs." Lest anyone else think about it, Spred emphasized again before he said what he really thought, "I mean, we might be able to get the Kazlan to send neutron matter over on their own initiative." ”

"How is this possible?" Dart looked incredulous, "Compared to this, I think it's more reliable than what you said before to make neutron matter grow legs." ”

"I'm serious." Spred began to explain his thoughts, "Of course, it is obviously impossible to rely on the Kazrans of the Republic of Kazran, but the Kazrans do not exist only in the Republic of Kazran. ”

His words were a bit awkward, but the meaning was very clear, Zhou Xin immediately understood what Spred was expressing, but he still confirmed to Spred: "What do you mean - community?" ”

"That's right, it's them." Spred confirmed Zhou Xin's thoughts, and then he continued, "Didn't Jeno tell you before that he wanted us to make up for the missing technology in the community? So why don't we take this as a condition and ask the community to help us find some neutron matter? ”

After Dart finished speaking, Zhou Xin didn't answer immediately, he thought for a while, and then asked: "However, now that we haven't been in contact with the community once, we don't know what their attitude towards us is, is this really feasible?" Although after thinking about it, Zhou Xinxin faintly felt that this was a good way, but he couldn't help but confirm it again.

"It's not feasible, just try it." Spred replied, "I'm not sure it's going to work, but I think there's a good chance of it." Then he thought for a moment, and added, "For the sake of caution, don't tell them what we're really trying to do in the first place, just let the people of the community know that we want something from the Republic of Kazran, and that's enough to test their attitude." ”

After Spred finished speaking, Zhou Xin did not respond immediately, he weighed the pros and cons of this approach in his heart, and just when Zhou Xin was still thinking, Dart spoke.

"I think what Dart said is a good idea, at least worth trying. If it doesn't work out, there's nothing to lose for us. After a pause, he continued, "And, I just thought about it, after the Kazlans used neutron weapons, in fact, time is running out for us. ”

"What do you mean?" Hearing Dart's words, Zhou Xin's train of thought was interrupted at once, and he hurriedly asked.

"Because we don't know exactly when the Kazrans will run out of neutron matter in their stockpiles." Dart's answer made most of the people in the command module nervous, and he continued, "With their current level of technology, even if they can make neutron matter, the amount will not be too much. Coupled with the asteroid explosion some time ago, I'm afraid that most of the neutron material they stored was buried there. The worst thing I fear is whether the Kazlans will lose their ability to produce neutron matter by losing the asteroid. If that's the case, then the batch of neutron matter they have now is the last part, so to speak, a little less. As he spoke, he glanced at the fleets on the screen that were temporarily uneventful, "Although the tide of the war is now moving in the direction of the Kazrans, who knows if the Ewen will turn the tide of the situation?" In the event of a repeat of the previous situation, there is no doubt that the Kazlans will use neutron weapons again. And how can we be sure that the neutron matter they use is not the last? Even now, we don't know whether they have exhausted the only remaining neutron matter in their hands. ”

"Looks like we're running out of time." Zhou Xin chose to believe Dart's inference, he sighed, and then complained casually, "Which bastard blew up that asteroid, isn't it adding difficulties to us out of thin air." ”

"Brother Captain, that bastard you're talking about is the Ewen." At this point, Atlas spoke, "Someone found a plan related to that asteroid in their military database. This plan was made before we came here, and the purpose was to destroy the reserves of neutron matter in Kazlan and destroy their associated production lines. And this large-scale deployment of the Ewen people is also based on the destruction of the asteroid, and it can be said that this time they have already formulated a series of related plans in order to successfully occupy the entire northern continent. It's a pity that the Kazlan people actually left a hand, which ultimately led to the failure of the plan when it was about to succeed. ”

"In other words, the stalemate we saw in the previous battles was also deliberately pretended by the Ewen?" Zhou Xin looked a little surprised.

"Partly, the purpose is to figure out the industrial capabilities of the Kazlans and the detailed capabilities of the mothership." Atlas replied, "Their tactics against the Kazlan mothership were actually proposed a few days ago, but at that time, the Eun's temptation to Kazlan was not completed, and the commander's hesitation caused it to be carried out until today. ”

"Have they never given up their plans for the Northern Continent? Ewen people are really persistent. Zhou Xin held his chin and said thoughtfully.

"If it weren't for this persistence, Ewen wouldn't be in the same situation as we saw it before." Dart said, then he turned the subject back, "Alright, that's all for the topic of how the Ewen plan the Northern Continent. The priority is how we get neutron matter from the Kazlans. ”

"Then you can only go to the community for help." Zhou Xin spread his hands helplessly, and while chatting, he had already made a decision in his heart, "If you all have no objections, then I'll go talk to Jeno now?" ”

"I don't have any objections, but I don't know if Jeno has any opinions." Dart nodded at the time shown in the corner of the screen, "Although this matter is indeed urgent, it is not to the point of finding someone else at two o'clock in the morning." ”

"Okay." Under Dart's prompting, Zhou Xin noticed the current time, "Then I can only go again tomorrow." ”

In the blink of an eye, the time came to six o'clock the next morning. In fact, Zhou Xin didn't sleep well that night, after all, the trouble that had plagued them for several months had finally found a solution, and no one could sleep well. After forcing himself to sleep for two or three hours, Zhou Xin woke up on time at six o'clock without a reminder from the Voyager. After a brief wash, he couldn't wait to walk to Jeno's cabin without even eating breakfast.

In the nearly a month since the Kazran Republic and the Eun Empire were at war, Jeno's body was also recovering at an extremely fast pace. A few days after Zhou Xin last saw Jeno, Wren transferred him from the special ward to the general ward, and even reported to Zhou Xin a few days ago that Jeno had recovered. However, during that time, Zhou Xin's attention was all focused on the war between the two sides, and he didn't go to visit him flawlessly, and even the last promise to Jeno that he would make a decision as soon as possible was almost forgotten. On the way to Jeno's residence, Zhou Xin was thinking about how to explain it to him.

Before Zhou Xin could come up with an excuse, he had already walked to the door. After Jeno recovered, and after a little adjustment to the environment inside the Voyager, he was placed in a normal cabin in the living module for a while. Standing at the door, Zhou Xin hesitated for a while, and finally chose to knock on the door.

However, after Zhou Xin knocked on the door, he waited for a long time, but the people inside did not respond. At first he thought he had made a mistake, but then the Voyager confirmed that this was indeed Jeno's room.

"Strange, where did people run away so early?" After waiting for more than ten minutes and knocking on the door two or three times, but there was no response from inside, Zhou Xin couldn't help but muttered to himself in confusion.

After waiting for a while, just when Zhou Xin felt that he was going to return in vain this time, Aina's voice came from behind him, "Hey, isn't this Uncle Captain?" ”

"Aina? Do you know where your father went? Zhou Xin asked as he turned around. Then, he saw Jeno standing beside Aina looking at him with a strange expression.

"It's been a long time." Jeno's tone seemed calm. However, as soon as these words came out, Zhou Xin's face became embarrassed in an instant......
