Chapter 235 Warp Speed Level 3
Of course, the director of military intelligence could not have imagined that the culprit responsible for this extremely chaotic scene was already safely staying in a large unmanned military base in the undersea mountain range of the Bermuda Triangle.
More than half a month ago, as the space channel reached the highest level of energy input, the entire stargate was already stable. Lin Feng led the "Shanfeng" squadron and first entered the "Stargate" space channel. The huge hull of the ship was like a sharp sword, piercing the huge screen of blue light that flowed erratically, as if inserted into the calm surface of a lake. Soon, the Atlantis starship was completely hidden in the passage.
"Commander Lin, the starship has now entered the passage. I gradually increase speed. In the main control room, a staff officer reported to Lin Feng.
"What's the speed now?" Lin Feng suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked calmly.
"Now it's 200,000 kilometers per second! And it is gradually accelerating! ”
"Power department, how is the output of the starship engine now?"
"Report to the Commander, the starship engines are now at twenty percent of their maximum power!"
"Gradually accelerate to 100%!"
"Understood!"
"Monitoring department, report on the specific condition of the starship now!"
"Yes! Commander. The starship's energy shield has been fully opened, and the pressure in the passage will not have any effect on the starship. The starship is now moving in a straight line, but the hull is flipping in a spiral! ”
"How's the inside of the starship?"
"The systems are in good condition!"
"Watch closely! The faster the speed, the greater the pressure on the starship; Especially the moment of breaking through the speed of light, it will be a great test for the hull, and the damage control team must be on standby at any time! ”
"Commander, the speed of the starship is approaching the speed of light!" The staff officer reported a little nervously.
Lin Feng's heart froze, and then he was engrossed, his eyes glued to the holographic screen, so that he could keep abreast of the various situations of the starship.
"291,000 kilometers per second...... 293,000 km/s...... 295,000 kilometers per second ......" the staff officer unconsciously muttered, he was about to break through the speed of light, which human beings had never experienced before, and naturally it was difficult to estimate the risks involved.
"298,000 kilometers per second...... 299,000 km...... Nine thousand one ...... Nine thousand three ...... Nine thousand and a half ......" The monotonous sound of the mechanical count made the air in the main control room a little nervous and dignified.
“…… Nine thousand nine hundred ...... 300,000 kilometers per second! The staff officer's voice was a little hoarse with nervousness and excitement. But people didn't pay attention to this, they only felt that at that moment, the starship seemed to hit a thick and solid barrier, and the hull of the ship let out a strong tremor, and at the same time, a short piercing sound of breaking the air came from the front of the starship. It's a pity that on the screen in the main control room, people can no longer see the situation behind the starship. If they could see it, they would find that behind the starship, there was a dazzling colorful trajectory, constantly winding and entanglement inside the huge passage.
"Commander, the speed has exceeded 500,000 kilometers per second!" The staff officer was still persistently reporting the starship's real-time speed.
"How is the starship doing now?" Lin Feng stared intently at the holographic screen in the main control room, but asked in his mouth.
"No problems found, everything is fine!" Starship monitors immediately replied.
A few minutes have passed, and the speed of the starship has exceeded a million kilometers per second. Soon after, another two million kilometers were reached. After two hours of sailing, the speed of the starship engine has successfully climbed to the highest speed per second that this "stargate" can reach: 30 million kilometers per second, as the power of the starship's engine has increased to the extreme! This is the ultimate speed that humans can currently reach! Before that, there were many debates and doubts about whether it would be possible to break through the speed of light! This is the way things are in the world, if there is a mountain standing in front of them, people will naturally doubt whether they can successfully climb it, and failure after failure will make the mountain higher and higher until it cannot be climbed. But once you make it, you'll see more and more wonderful scenery!
That is, at the moment when the speed of the starship reaches the **warp speed, that is, 30 million kilometers per second, everyone in the starship seems to see a strange sight, the starship is not advancing, but retreating rapidly! What they couldn't see was that the seven-colored ribbon of light in the stern of the ship was entwined and rushed towards the starship.
"Commander, the energy chamber has found an anomaly!" Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the communication system.
As soon as Lin Feng heard this, his heart suddenly became nervous. Now the starship has reached an extremely high speed of 30 million kilometers per second, and any slight mistake will lead to the destruction of the ship and the death of people. What's more, behind the passage, there are also nineteen starships of the "Peak" squadron entering one after another, and once an accident occurs on the Atlantis, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction, and even cause this large area of airspace to become Bermuda in the universe.
"What's unusual?" Lin Feng asked in a deep voice.
"The automatic control system in the energy cabin shows that the source energy reserves of our ship are not only not depleted, but are increasing!"
"How so?" Lin Feng was taken aback, this phenomenon was too strange to explain at all.
"Not good! The speed of source energy condensation is too fast to control! His voice was full of panic and horror.
"Kim, what's going on?" Lin Feng hurriedly asked Xiao Jin for advice. However, as soon as his words fell, he saw a burst of dazzling light suddenly burst out from the direction of the energy cabin, followed by a strong tingling pain in his brain, and then he fell unconscious.
……
Earth, Federal Presidency.
The Federal Presidency is located on an artificial island in the Pacific Ocean. At the beginning of the establishment of the Federation, in order to avoid political chaos and games caused by the competition between various regions for the seat of the federal political axe, the Federation decided to build a vast artificial island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It took ten years for the island to be built, and the architecture on it varied in style, and everyone who came to the island was able to find a building with their own national style, which gave rise to a sense of belonging and pride in being respected, which greatly strengthened the cohesion of the Federation. Of course, in this way, the island has become a place where the buildings of all nations converge, and it is inevitable that there will be a messy feeling. Although messy is sometimes a kind of beauty, when you have to look at hundreds or thousands of styles of buildings in a short period of time, it is difficult to say whether there will be aesthetic fatigue.
As the highest administrative body of the entire Earth Federation, the office building of the Federal Axe is naturally designed in the center of the artificial island. This is an area of more than 20 square kilometers, up to more than 5,000 meters, splendid building, the building has 1,600 floors, and there are more than 200,000 rooms with various functions in the interior. More than 1,000 express elevators are evenly distributed throughout the building, and public convenience cars are used on each floor to allow people to move around the building with ease.
At this moment, on the top floor of the building, in the office of the Federal President, the 198th President of the Federation, Chen Zhenbang, is standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window behind the desk, leaning over and staring out the window. It's a city full of life and vitality, and although it's made entirely of steel and concrete, the people who work here give it a thriving life.
Undoubtedly, the city is a miracle, a miracle comparable to the successful human march into outer space. But as president, Chen Zhenbang also deeply realized that behind the superficial prosperity is a huge crisis. If human beings cannot find a resource-rich planet in the starry sky, this prosperity that has lasted for thousands of years will be like a yellow flower in an instant, and it will wither in an instant.
He was deeply aware of such a crisis. But as the president, he has a deep sense of powerlessness at this time. This sense of powerlessness comes from a deep understanding of the federal system. Economically, the federation still pursues private ownership, and the constitution clearly stipulates that private property is sacrosanct. Politically, the Confederation has not yet found a way to replace the current system. Although everyone knows that the federal president and officials at all levels are elected, the federal parliament has legislative and supervisory powers, and can even remove the federal president by a simple majority. These seem to be very **, and what the Federation preaches is also the general enjoyment of a high ** rights by the people. But in fact, the ** system derived from property rights is only a superficial appearance. A large amount of wealth is concentrated in the hands of a small number of families, which makes it possible for them to meddle in politics. Driven by their own interests, these families often ignore the interests of all mankind and do some shameless deeds. (To be continued.) )
