Chapter IX. Hello in the future
On December 24, 2026, 645 days from contact, Christmas, although I haven't had Christmas since I was 9 years old, I still think it's an important holiday, and I want to record it well.
A few days ago, because of my outstanding performance in the army, I also passed various tests, and now I am selected as a reserve member of the space fighter, and I called my mother to report the good news, but my mother actually wanted me to give up this opportunity, saying that it was too dangerous and did not want me to go.
I also know that my mother is worried about my safety, but in the past few years of education, I have learned that the positive actions of everyone on the earth are not for others, they are saving themselves and their families, and I also hope that I can defeat the aliens on the front line, so that my parents will not be harmed.
Yesterday I signed an agreement with the captain behind my parents' back, and one of the terms is that if I sacrifice my family, I will enjoy special treatment in the future, and I will not let my family go to the battlefield at any time, which should be the only reward I can give to my parents now.
There are still two years before the aliens are coming, and it depends on whether human beings can survive or not, and I want to finally indulge myself, and I find that there is no place to indulge anywhere, only to read in my dormitory, maybe in another year, reading will become a luxury.
Look at the book and go to sleep.
On February 6, 2027, 601 days after contact, the Chinese New Year, it has been almost two months since I landed on the moon base, and I will be trained with 10,000 friends selected from all over the world this year as a supplement to the later carrier-based pilots. After getting used to the initial vertigo, I was finally able to fly a space fighter in the simulation room to fight a virtual alien spaceship, and of course I failed every time.
The artificial gravity facility beneath the base had been in operation for almost a year before I arrived, and everything felt the same as on Earth except that I couldn't just go out of the base.
After each day's training, I go back to the dormitory and go through the window. I can always see countless floating air fortresses on the earth and low earth orbit, and the earth is also lit up at night, and I know that everyone can't stop for a moment, and they are all trying to fight for the future of mankind.
Mom and Dad can only have a video with me when they are free, and now my mother has also been transferred from the material department to the survival preparation department, and the time for contact is getting closer and closer, and she has begun to prepare a large number of materials before and after the war, and prepare for the worst, listen to my mother
"Rice, all kinds of canned food, medicines, compressed vegetables, frozen meat, and radiation protective clothing have all been distributed to the underground facilities of major CD cities and stored, and more of them are like the food stored by rats in the winter, even if they do not produce for the next 100 years, they should be enough for human beings to live."
Thinking about 100 years, the nuclear winter should have passed, and everyone is ready, even if it is to destroy the earth. Nor will it be for aliens to get.
Dad, they're also building the 8th space elevator, and now the ship's port of call is getting bigger and bigger. I heard that they are planning to expand into a military port with 100 ships. Production, assembly, and maintenance can be completed in space, with nearly 600,000 people working on it for a long time, and the daily necessities are transported by elevator to the near-ground elevator docking platform, and then supplied to the port of call with a traction transportation warehouse. Such a huge space station was unimaginable eight years ago, but I didn't expect it to be built in a few years, and war is simply the best tool to promote human progress.
But our technology is still not enough, the protective cover function has not been overcome, or can only withstand the blow directly on the hull, now basically all the quantum, ion, physicist, polymer scientists on the ground are doing all kinds of experiments day and night, and have not yet found ions that can be artificially controlled, there are less than two years left, we still have to refuel.
It's late at night, and the bedside watch shows 1:00 a.m. on Earth time, looking at the lights shining on Earth at night.
May our future be so bright, good night earth!
