While Bai Zhongqi is showing his strong side as a man and comforting the traumatic and fearful schoolgirl, the world is quietly changing. Chaos and panic are unfolding around the world www.biquge.info with frequent phone calls and meetings between dignitaries, and various countermeasures are being brewed and prepared.

And as the culprit of all this, the Iridians are also not idle.

In the International Space Station, which has been in operation for more than a decade, six astronauts from five different countries have also been affected by what is happening on Earth, and the astronauts also have information channels and are able to see various social media networks. After the San Francisco Air War, the NSA tried to intervene and interrupt the spread of social media, but it was unsuccessful. On the one hand, there are too many witnesses and the scale of transmission is too large to cover up; On the other hand, the power of capital is also manifested behind this incident, obviously the interruption of several major social media is not allowed by capital, the blow to several IT giants is huge, and it may even cause the group decline of the technology sector, and then hit the entire securities market hard, so capital will never allow the US government agencies to mess around.

The work on the space station is busy, especially since the space station is nearing the end of its life, and the follow-up space station plan is completely absent. Cuts in national funding have also made it more difficult to conduct experiments and other work on the space station.

The air battle in San Francisco directly caused the astronauts on the space station to stop what they were doing and put them on standby. The astronauts of the space station are now together, and in the past they were more in their own hands.

American astronaut Luthor is on his first space mission, and he has not been on the space station for a long time, and after the initial freshness has passed, it is difficult to endure. The outbreak of the San Francisco incident made Luthor even more uneasy. Luthor said to Russian cosmonaut Demitri: "Demitri, doesn't Russia have a plan to retreat from the space station now?" It's super dangerous to be in space right now, and those aliens don't know where to hide. ”

Already in his forties, Demitri, who has participated in many space missions, is very calm, and after staying in space for a long time, he naturally has a kind of open-mindedness to put life and death out of the way. This wine is not a standard material on the space station, but is actually an experimental tool used to test brewing and material aging on the space station. After the incident, Demitri and another Russian cosmonaut, Mikhail, ransacked the stock and turned it into their current pastime. At this time, no one can control them, and even other astronauts plan to get a piece of the pie.

Demitri said: "Even if a spacecraft is launched and the evacuation plan is implemented, the Russian Federation and the United States will blame for this, who will take the money, what is the cycle, what kind of rocket to use, and when these problems are really solved, I don't know when it will be." ”

Luthor was desperate: "Do you want us to drift in space, and we could be destroyed by aliens at any time?" ”

Demitrius drank the wine, drank it to himself, and said casually: "We? It's just six astronauts who don't have much use, and if they are abandoned, they will be abandoned, and the guys on the ground, I'm afraid there are more important things to think about now. ”

Katsunade, an astronaut from Japan, said solemnly: "I also tend that there will be no evacuation plan, pessimistically thinking that if aliens really want to destroy the earth, there is not much difference between us retreating to the ground and staying in space." ”

Luther's face was already pale, his hands trembled, and his eyes were glazed: "I still have my wife and children......"

Demitrius looked down on this fearful Yankee, and after he drank the wine in his glass, he said, "Who here has no family?" Since it's our turn, there's nothing to complain about, it's better to enjoy it, even if bad luck strikes, there is nothing to regret. ”

After saying this, there was a silence in the cabin. In the entire space station, there is only the sound of various instruments running, and the decibel number is not high, but it is very stubborn as a background sound. Sometimes, however, spacefarers are thankful for such sounds, there is no sound transmission in a vacuum, and no one can stand such fear if they are in absolute silence.

Outside the capsule is pitch black cosmic space and a clear planet. No matter how huge or filthy the planet feels on the ground, it is still stunningly beautiful when viewed from afar. Several astronauts don't know how their fortunes will change, and they can't do anything about what happens next.

At this moment, suddenly the entire space station shook, and all the astronauts did not stand unstable because of this shaking, because they were in the environment of space microgravity, and the person still had a leash attached to the device.

Demitrius woke up: "What's the matter? ”

Luthor had climbed to the porthole to look, "My God! ”

What he saw was definitely not God, but a small Iridium unmanned engineering ship. This unmanned engineering ship was carried in large numbers by the Ruyi City colonial ship and was the main backbone of the colonial orbit construction of the United Empire. The versatile unmanned engineering vessel is capable of mining, material preparation, and construction, building various facilities in planetary orbit directly for Iridium's colonial fleet.

Of course, sometimes they are also responsible for the demolition work like the one now.

The International Space Station is now an illegal building in orbit for unmanned engineering ships, which needs to be forcibly cleaned up. The engineering ship dragged a long robotic arm to the International Space Station, and then started its engines to tow what seemed to be a huge space structure to other places.

Demitri also saw this lobster-like spaceship, and understood that this was definitely not a thing on Earth, but he also saw it very openly, and actually grinned two rows of teeth, laughed, and said: "Luckily, we may be the first wave of earthlings to face to face with aliens." ”

Katsuna was also a little excited about this, saying, "Perhaps, the aliens will inform us of their intentions and send us back to Earth for negotiations." ”

Luther's eyes lit up when he heard this, "It would be great if this was the case." ”

Not long after, several astronauts heard the alarm.

"The door of the Columbus experimental module was forcibly opened, and the door of the Columbus experimental module was forcibly opened."

Demitri said, "Something has come in." ”

At this time, even if a few astronauts want to resist, there are no weapons, not to mention that humans have not yet had the experience of real combat in a microgravity environment, and in order to prevent the danger caused by the destruction of equipment, there are no weapons on the space station.

The six of them came to the Columbus experimental module, and they were very worried about the alien intelligent creatures they were about to see. I don't know if it's an ET-like alien, or if it's an alien or a Predator.

The hatch opened, and out of it came several soldiers dressed in silver individual armor with succinct sci-fi features. These soldiers came out in the literal sense, not as the astronauts floated out on a daily basis. In other words, these soldiers actually have gravity in the microgravity capsule?!

These aliens have hands and feet, walk upright, and are no different from humans. When the alien at the head opened the not-so-heavy helmet mask to reveal the face inside, several space station astronauts were already sluggish.

This is the face of a young Asian man who is definitely not uncommon on Earth, from height to appearance, this alien wearing silver armor looks no different from East Asians on Earth.

The Asian-looking alien opened his mouth and said, "You have officially become a prisoner of the Iridium United Imperial Space Army, and if you actively cooperate, the Imperial Space Force will give you humane treatment." ”

When Katsunade was young, he was exposed to some Chinese, and although he was not proficient in daily conversation, he could generally hear that the other party was definitely speaking Mandarin Chinese.

"Chinese?"

The alien officer didn't bother to explain to them, he tapped on a mechanism on his arm, and the sentence he had just said was automatically translated into English, Russian, French, and other languages. This time, the rest of the spacemen also understood.

Luthor was most surprised: "These guys are Chinese? ”

Demitri shook his head and said, "Impossible, how can the Chinese have such technology?" ”

Katsuna bowed to the alien officer, expressed his respect, and then said in broken Chinese: "Sir, thank you for your kindness to us, I dare to ask, why do you speak Chinese and Chinese on Earth, and what are your plans for us?" ”

The alien officer glanced at him and said, "I can't answer you either question, you don't have to worry about your lives for the time being, the Imperial Space Force is now just routinely cleaning up non-ours targets in planetary orbit." ”

Demitri and the others also joined in, hoping to extract more information from the mouth of the alien who looked like a Chinese speaking Chinese, but their questions upset the officer, and with a wave of his hand, several soldiers fastened a metal bracelet on the wrists of the six astronauts. Then the officer tapped the control panel on his forearm again, and the six astronauts immediately felt themselves being electrocuted.

The alien officer said unceremoniously: "Pay attention to your identity and demeanor, you are captives, not guests of the Empire, and if someone makes any more noise, I don't mind raising the level of electric shocks to your organisms." ”

It was definitely uncomfortable just now, although it was only for a second, but several astronauts were already apprehensive, and they didn't dare to make another attempt, so they honestly lined up and were escorted by Iridium soldiers to the InSight reconnaissance ship.

In fact, the officer didn't tell the truth, the six astronauts were also the first earthlings captured by the Iridium, and they also had a certain amount of knowledge and experience, and they would be interrogated to get useful information for Iridium.
