Chapter Eighty-Three: Desperate Situation
(Old and young masters, tears are running for some push!) )
Looking at Helen's helpless and frightened expression, Lin Feng's heart ached. Although he was at a loss, in front of Helen, he had to fight hard and make a confident look of "with me here, you don't have to worry". "Helen, don't be afraid. You have to remember that there is no end to it, and things may not be as bad as we think. And, who am I? I am Lin Feng, the genius Lin Feng, the omnipotent Lin Feng. Believe me, we must persevere, and we will be saved. Lin Feng comforted the strong but fragile girl in front of him.
Lin Feng's self-confidence really freed Helen from despair. Looking at Lin Feng's stinky fart, Helen laughed "poof", "All-powerful Lin Feng? Anyway, who is this Lin Feng, the iron-armed Astro Boy with fire-breathing feet? Or Ultraman who specializes in fighting small monsters? Or is it Superman who wears his underwear backwards? Helen, who came to her senses, laughed and sneered.
"Hey, how do you know my panties are worn backwards? You...... You...... You spy on me! Looking at Helen's smile, Lin Feng immediately made a look of surprise and shame.
"you! Too lazy to pay attention to you! Helen laughed.
Maybe laughter really has the effect of relaxing the nerves, and after Lin Feng's gag, the emotions of the two are no longer so nervous. Lin Feng, who calmed down, began to look for a way to save himself.
In fact, the situation is even more severe now than it was just now. The strong energy shock wave made the Yellow River not know how many kilometers away from the course, and more importantly, caused the Yellow River to suffer fatal damage, all systems were in chaos, and its hull could completely disintegrate at any time. Now the only place the two of them can live in is the control room in the bow of the ship. Since Lin Feng had already adjusted his course during the explosion, most of the energy impact was on the stern of the ship and the main body of the ship, the bow position was the least damaged, and the control room was basically intact. But if you can't get out of the wreckage of the ship in time, the final result will be to be taken into the depths of the vast void, and there really is no way to think of it at that time.
Lin Feng's eyes scanned rapidly in the control room, hoping to find something. According to his guess, the ship's designer should have arrangements to deal with this special situation, and it is up to him to find out.
Helen also noticed his movements, and she was smart enough to think of this, so like Lin Feng, she searched carefully in the control room.
In the end, girls should be more careful, and soon Helen made a discovery. Next to the chair in the control room, a small handle is abruptly installed, but it looks very smooth and there is no sign of friction, which shows that this handle has never been used. But why install such a seemingly useless thing on an already highly automated and intelligent ship? And it's still manual? There was a hint of doubt in the eyes of both of them. But now is not the time to get to the bottom of it, and in such an emergency situation, any possibility of escape must be firmly grasped.
Lin Feng glanced at Helen, Helen naturally understood the meaning of this glance, only hesitated slightly, then pursed her lips and nodded. She knew that as soon as the handle was pressed, there were only two possibilities, either the two of them could escape from the wreckage of the Yellow River and retain a glimmer of hope of salvation, or they would follow the wreckage forever in space and wander.
Lin Feng couldn't delay any longer, he grabbed the handle tightly, secretly praying in his heart that the hope of survival was here! In the middle of his thoughts, his hand suddenly pressed down, only to hear a dull and suppressed popping sound at the foot of the control room, and then, he felt a huge pressure pressing the two of them on the chair. Although the two of them felt very uncomfortable physically, they were extremely excited in their hearts. Sure enough, this handle is used to control the ejection device! At this moment, the control room has completely detached itself from the wreckage of the Yellow River and is speeding in an unknown direction!
This situation lasted for about ten minutes, and with the jet of a strong air flow at the front of the control room, the control room, oh no, it seemed that it should be called the rescue pod now, and soon, the rescue pod came to a complete halt, silently suspended in the void.
Lin Feng and Helen took a long breath, they had suffocated the two of them just now. The two of them who survived the desperate situation can finally celebrate a little. With such a life-saving device, it was at least possible for the two to hold out for a while to wait for the starship's search and rescue.
The excitement of the two did not last long, and a beautiful female voice suddenly sounded.
"Congratulations on your escape, two lucky ones."
The two were stunned, there is another person here? But why can't you see it?
"Who are you?" The two of them shook and asked almost at the same time.
"Don't be nervous. I'm not human, I'm just an intelligent voice program, and the moment you press down the controller, I'm activated. The only purpose of my existence is to tell the lucky ones about the situation of this survival pod, so that you can make reasonable use of the resources here and increase the possibility of survival. The female voice seemed to know that the two of them would have such a question, and explained it herself.
"The energy stored here can keep the rescue pod running for seven days, so pray that you will be rescued during these seven days. Under the console is a storage compartment containing two bottles of water, two bags of high-energy compressed biscuits, a small life support system that provides oxygen, heat, and a call device capable of covering a radius of three million kilometers. That's all. If you need to wait a long time for help, then make good use of these things. Personal advice, try to exercise as little as possible, save energy, oxygen, food, and most importantly, water! ”
"Okay, my mission is complete, I will self-destruct in order to save energy and give you more help. I wish you all the best luck forever! The sound gradually diminished until it disappeared completely.
Lin Feng and Hailun looked at each other, and a chill suddenly arose in their hearts, they thought they had gotten rid of the crisis, but the real crisis has only begun now!
Simply calculated, in the course of the previous pursuit, the Yellow River has been flying at a speed of 8,000 kilometers per second for nearly an hour, and the battle with the Amazon has lasted for about 20 minutes, during which the distance generated has reached nearly 40 million kilometers. What's even more troublesome is that in the explosion of the Amazon, the Yellow River did not know how far it was swept away by the huge shock wave and where it went. Moreover, during the escape process just now, the two of them had no way of knowing the direction and speed of the catapult device!
With such a long distance and such a complicated route, what should the search and rescue people do?
In short, there is a mess in the brains of the two now, but one thing, they have already realized, the expected rescue may come late, very late!
And when the two were facing a desperate situation, the two starships had already launched a large-scale search and rescue operation.
After thinking hard, Captain Chen Xinghan finally found a compromise solution, forcibly understood that in addition to some of the locked permissions, he sent all the ships of the Wanhu starship out to conduct a carpet search along the general direction of the two escape ships; Because the speed of the ships on the Atlantis is far from enough, they can only take on the task of protecting the satellite ships. For a while, the armies of the two starships were frequently moved, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
In front of the video communication screen of the two starships, Captain Bruce looked at Chen Xinghan on the screen, with a helpless expression, "Captain Chen, I said that there is no need to work hard and waste precious energy for this. All it takes is one or two ships to catch up. I'm sure they won't have any problems. ”
"Captain Bruce, you're not right. Not to mention that they will encounter resistance from the other side in the process of pursuit, if the two sides fight for too long and the course is constantly changing, it may be difficult for even the automatic control system to record the route, which is likely to make them lost in the starry sky. If that's the case, how can I be worthy of you and Lieutenant General Lin Zhentian. Miss Helen is your only relative. Besides, I admire these two young people very much, and I can't bear to have any accidents with the leaders of our younger generation! ”
"But ...... do that"
"Nothing. This is what we have to do, not only for you, but for the morale of all. If we can't even save the heroes who saved the starship and saved the voyage,......" Chen Xinghan didn't continue, but the meaning was already obvious. For these two young people, he had to find, even if it took a lot of time and resources.
……
……
Time passed minute by minute in torment. It's now the sixth day that the two of them have been lost in space. In order to prolong the operation time of the life support system as much as possible, on the second day, Lin Feng turned off the lighting equipment of the rescue cabin, lowered the temperature in the cabin, and stopped sending distress signals to the outside world. Because all of this consumes that pitiful amount of energy. After all, they don't know when the rescue will come, it may be tomorrow, it may be ten or twenty days later, or it may never even wait for that moment!
The two sat quietly in their chairs, rarely communicating with each other. The long darkness made Helen feel a strong sense of fear, and she grabbed Lin Feng's hands desperately, trying to gain some strength and courage from them.
Vaguely, Helen asked in a voice so low that only the two of them could hear it, "Lin Feng, you say, can they really find us?" ”
"Sure you can find it, don't worry. Keep it up! Helen! Lin Feng's words were full of confidence.
"Lin Feng, can you talk to me for a while? I...... I was really a little scared. There was a tremor in Helen's voice.
"Hmm. Good. What to say? Lin Feng squeezed Helen's hand with pity, which was cold and cold.
"Tell me about when you were a kid."
"Well, let's talk about some of the things I did when I was young. I was only eight years old at the time......" Lin Feng's voice was very gentle, whispering.
But only halfway through the words, Helen interrupted him, "Lin Feng, I'm so sleepy, I'm so cold, can you hold me?" I want to sleep! ”
Lin Feng gently hugged Helen in his arms, "If you want to sleep, you can sleep at ease, everything is with me." ”
Feeling Helen's soft and delicate, bumpy and delicate body, Lin Feng did not have a trace of affection. In his heart, there is only pity and endless love for Helen!
