Chapter XXVIII. Headquarters Building
The two siblings, Bai Ze and Bai Li, also followed the crowd to the spaceship bound for the Silver White Star. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A three-kilometer-long "Moby Dick"-class large spacecraft can accommodate about 20,000 people in total, including about 17,000 passengers, and the rest are staff, so even if multiple boarding passages are opened at the same time, the turbulent flow of people will take a long time to be considered to end.
And after confirming that everyone had boarded the ship, the Moby Dick-class spacecraft finally began to start again.
The huge spacecraft began to slowly move out of the space station in low-Earth orbit, and then began to gradually accelerate. Such a large civilian spaceship itself has no dexterity to speak of, so the acceleration time is also quite long. However, when a long time passed, the speed of the spacecraft reached its peak, and the "Space Jump Engine" finally started.
In an instant, the lighting of the entire ship almost stopped, and the surroundings were pitch black, except for a small number of emergency lights in the cockpit that retained a dim glow. In front of the "Moby Dick"-class civilian spacecraft, the originally innocent space began to be torn out of a rift, and this rift continued to expand until it was large enough to accommodate the entire hull to pass through.
In this way, the three-kilometer-long large ship plunged headlong into the torn rift, and soon, the drop-shaped hull disappeared at the end of the breach, and then the rift closed, and the starry sky returned to its original state, as if it had never been torn apart.
About two hours later, the Moby Dick-class civilian spacecraft completely broke away from the jumping state and appeared in a new star field.
At this time, the energy-hungry space reflex engine was turned off, and the internal power supply of this "Moby Dick" class civilian spacecraft gradually returned to normal, and the people in the entire ship breathed a sigh of relief.
Just over two hours may not seem like a long time, but with the help of this space refraction technology, the Moby Dick-class civilian spacecraft has actually traveled a distance of more than several light years.
"Brother...... The leap is over...... "Bai Li looked out of the window on the side of the ship, and found that the scene that was like a black hole around him had gradually returned to the usual starry sky.
"Yes, that should be the silver-white star......" Bai Ze also walked to the side of the ship, looked out through the transparent window, and sure enough, there was a silver-white planet not far ahead.
"It's really easy to recognize...... The name is Silver White Star, and the color of the planet itself is silvery-white, unlike the orange star where we were before, which is obviously named after the color, but the orange star is not orange......" Bai Li said curiously.
"Haha, that's because the ore of the Silver White Star is exposed on the ground, and the Silver White Star is the most abundant silver-white special metal 'Mithril', so the Silver White Star we see is such a color......"
"That's right, in contrast, the ore of the Orange Star is buried underground, which is not only time-consuming and laborious to excavate, but also very dangerous...... From this point of view, the people on the Silver White Star are much happier, and they can pick up precious metals like Mithril by bending down......" Bai Li also sighed rarely.
Like the previous in Orange Star, the "Beluga" class civilian spacecraft that the brother and sister were riding on gradually slowed down, slowly drove into the low-earth orbit of Silver White Star, and finally completed docking with the space station in low-earth orbit.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this voyage has ended, and the No. 3 space station of the silver and white star has arrived, please take your luggage and prepare to disembark." Before the hatch could open, loudspeakers throughout the ship had heard a woman's electronic voice, repeated several times.
After that, there was the sound of the metal hatch slowly opening, and this time Bai Ze and Bai Li, the brother and sister, walked down the spacecraft with the crowd and entered the space station, and then took the orbital elevator in batches to officially land on the ground of the silver white star.
"Squeak-"
When the door of the rail elevator opened, Bai Ze and Bai Li did not see the imaginary silver-white world.
Judging from the appearance of the city, it seems that it is not much different from the human cities on most planets, but the buildings look taller and more futuristic, proving that there is Huaxia Heavy Industries, one of the most powerful arms factories in the entire Human Federation, on this planet.
So the brother and sister casually stopped a self-driving hovercar and sat on it.
"Where are the guests going?" Because it's a self-driving car, there is no so-called driver in the car, and the one who asks Bai Ze and Bai Li is, of course, an artificial intelligence that can only make electronic sounds.
"Go to the headquarters of Huaxia Heavy Industry!" After sitting down, Bai Ze said the same.
"Okay, the headquarters of Huaxia Heavy Industries...... The route has been decided, please fasten your seatbelts for both guests, we are about to leave ......"
"Whoosh!"
The hovering car drove forward at a rapid speed in an instant, and the speed was so fast that even Bai Ze had to smack his tongue.
"Is it the gap in the level of technology...... Taxis in big cities are equipped with hovers...... In this way, if you encounter a traffic jam, you should be able to fly from different altitudes. ”
"How else to say that this is the headquarters of Huaxia Heavy Industry...... Everywhere you look, you can see design ...... that show off the technical prowess."
"Well, that's ...... right."
Bai Ze and Bai Li had only been chatting for a while, and as a result, they felt that the vehicle had stopped.
"The destination, the headquarters of Huaxia Heavy Industry has arrived," said the familiar female electronic stereo, "The total cost this time is one hundred and fifty yuan, and the guests please pay the bill." ”
"Okay," Bai Ze stretched out his left hand, exposing the eye-catching bracelet to the front of the on-board computer.
Then a green light shot out from the roof of the vehicle, and then scanned onto Bai Ze's bracelet, as if the supermarket was scanning the QR code, and Bai Ze paid one hundred and fifty yuan in an instant.
After paying the bill, the door of the hovering taxi opened, and the brother and sister finally stepped out of the car.
"Wow......" When he got out of the car, Bai Ze was shocked by the appearance in front of him.
The building in front of him didn't look particularly tall, but when he got close, Bai Ze still felt that this building had a completely different temperament from the other buildings around him.
It's more like a castle than a building.
Not only are there quite a few mechs patrolling around, but they seem to be on guard against something. In addition, there are multiple layers of defense inside and outside the building, and a large number of rare metals such as "Mithril" are used to build the exterior walls.
Therefore, the headquarters of Huaxia Heavy Industry also has the title of "strong castle".
