Chapter Twenty-Nine: There Is No Hope of Giving Up! (I ask for a recommended collection.)
3rd Floor......
Since the collapse and closure of the corridor on the third and second floors, the people trapped here have been staying for more than ten hours, more than 3,000 people, under the support of the life support system of the third floor, although the temperature and air problems are not there for the time being, but being buried in the ground in the outer space of this asteroid is already a desperate thing in itself.
But fortunately, these thousands of people are people who have experienced the end of despair, and they didn't have any crazy actions in that situation, although they have been cornered now, they are not alone, there are still hundreds of thousands of people above their heads, and there are still hope axes and armies, they will not give up saving them!
With this belief, these thousands of people stayed quietly below, while checking whether there were entrances and exits, or whether there were leaks, and then some technicians began to check the integrity of the equipment, especially the life support system, the air circulation system, and the contact system.
Unfortunately, the first two devices are still intact, but the wiring of the communication system is likely to have been completely damaged in the earthquake, so they cannot communicate with the outside world through wired contacts, as for wireless contacts...... Aliens don't have mobile phones, in addition to the built-in liaison device of the spacesuit, the optical equipment of other wireless contacts is so large, since there are limited contacts, and the third, second, and first layers have extensions, and there are built-in contacts in the spacesuit, so why do you need to make wireless contacts?
So at this point, they can't communicate with the outside world......
The first few hours were fine, everyone was resting quietly, or checking the various devices, such as the hedron reactor, checking its ruminant concentration and strong acid concentration, and adding new ruminant and strong acid when the time came, and the time passed in such silence.
But when the time was about ten hours, when the last ruminant and strong acid were added to the hedron reactor, the mood of everyone present changed dramatically.
This hedron reactor provides all the energy sources of the third layer, and if it is lost, then the life support system and air circulation system will also lose their effectiveness, and the result is that these 3,000 people will die in the shortest possible time.
Well, even if you lose energy, you can live for a short time with the air that is still in it, but what about alien plants?
It is true that alien plants will not cause any harm to humans, but anything other than the human body is among them devoured, in other words, this third layer is definitely not guaranteed, not only that, but it is likely to be swallowed together with the first and second layers, and then swallowed up to the surface of the asteroid, at that time, the loss of air is directly exposed to vacuum, and everyone will die after suffocation!
In other words, from ten hours after the earthquake erupted, their names remained for only eight hours, until the ruminants and strong acids were gone...... That's when they die!
Gradually, some people became irritable, but they still had enough restraint, just swaying around, or speaking louder, and some people were more calm, and actually found paint, wrote their own suicide note on their clothes, of course, the calmest was that among the several soldiers, some people actually began to sleep.
But such a negative and even desperate thing is not what Mavi Novsky wants to do!
Mavi Novsky has a wife and two sons, both of whom are still alive and aboard the Hope.
This is his family, and it is also his hope to live!
He doesn't want to die here, even if it's in a desperate situation, he also wants to earn a way to live, he wants to accompany his wife, he wants to watch his two sons grow up Chengren, he doesn't want to die!
So since a few hours ago, Mavi had been looking around for all kinds of parts, some metal wires and the like, and seeing his behavior, even some people who knew him well, began to help him find all kinds of parts.
“…… Yes, I want to make a simple radio communication device. ”
"There are two key problems, one is that there are no suitable parts here, in fact, all of them are made of large components like external cabins, and the small parts are usually made on the Hope, and the second is the structural layer here," Mavi said to the people who helped him. ”
Speaking of this, Mavi said to a few people around him, "Do you know why there is no wireless contact in the underground temporary settlement? In fact, the reason is very simple, the rocks inside this asteroid contain all kinds of radioactive minerals, which must be known to many of you, among which there are some special radioactive minerals, which are substances that no longer exist on the earth, but they exist here, and for the infinite contact, the radiation of certain radioactive minerals will interfere with it. ”
"In fact, including the built-in liaison device of the spacesuit, the large wireless liaison device, and even the liaison on the Hope are jammed all the time, but this interference is not serious, and if the power is higher, the interference can be overcome for communication."
Speaking of this, Mavi smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "But this kind of interference is going on all the time, so instead of using wireless communication devices, it is more reliable to communicate with wires...... As long as there is no earthquake. ”
"The wireless communication equipment I want to manufacture now should have a contact diameter of about 500 meters to 1,000 meters if there is no interference, but if it is at the current level of interference, it is estimated that the contact diameter is only about 100 to 200 meters......
Mavi looked at the people around him seriously: "So, do you want to be desperate, is there still someone above our heads to rescue us...... As soon as I made this wireless contact, you will know that this is the case. ”
"What about time?" A middle-aged man next to him said with a wry smile: "It's okay for us, but it's ...... over there."
The middle-aged man pointed into the distance and said, "The situation over there may not be very good." ”
In the distance, nearly a thousand people were gathered around the blockage of the passage, where they were moving small rocks, or trying to push large rocks, they were trying to open the passage to the second level, and as time passed, there were more and more such people, and the tempers of the people were growing, and there had been two or three quarrels, and this continued...... I'm afraid it's not a quarrel, but a more terrible group fight.
Mavi was also speechless, he looked at the materials in front of him, shook his head and said: "The materials are still insufficient, let's continue to look for materials, as for the combination of these, it is a very simple matter, if my estimate is good, three hours is enough." ”
"Then let's hurry up, let's work together, let's look for it separately, if necessary, we can dismantle those machines, and even the shuttle can be disassembled, anyway, fate is the most important, right?" The middle-aged man clapped his hands and spoke to the people nearby.
Immediately, everyone agreed, and together they began to search and dismantle it.
However, when the time continued to move back for nearly three hours or so, when the materials were almost ready, and even when Mavi had already begun to assemble the wireless contact, trouble came to the door first.
It was the crowd that was digging the passage, and at this moment there were more than two thousand people in the group, and dozens of people surrounded Mavi and them, and one of the workers said, "You have been looking for things and you have not come to help, don't you want to live?" Listen to them, are you making wireless contacts? A wireless communication device that can only communicate with a diameter of 100 meters to 200 meters? No kidding! ”
The worker exclaimed, "There is no one above us anymore!" Earthquake, they must have retreated directly back to the Hope! It's been thirteen or four hours, but we haven't gotten any rescue, and there's no sound of blasting or digging outside the passageway, what can you do with this liaison? ”
"Don't do it, come dig with us! Let's work together, and we can definitely go back to the second layer on our own! ”
At the same time, many people echoed the worker's words, and Mavi faced all this with an ugly face, although the other party did not rob or smash the things he made or those parts, but the meaning of the words was already very obvious, that is, they were almost impatient, and they would either become their companions, that is, the majority, or they would be the very few and bear their wrath, and the two must have only one choice.
"Everyone, please listen to me, this passage has been completely sealed by huge rocks, we don't have the right tools and explosives here, we can't leave, and we don't dare to use explosives, what if it causes a bigger landslide? We made the liaison to ......" Mavi explained aloud to the group, and some people around echoed him.
But......
Mavi: They are now in the "minority"!
"Smash their parts and stuff and let them dig with us!"
The worker shouted loudly and rushed towards the wireless contact made by Mavi first, followed by dozens of people behind him, and gradually, with a desperate madness in their eyes......
Mavi closed his eyes in pain, he knew that he couldn't stop them, otherwise it would probably lead to a bloodbath, and they would probably die......
But, just give up?
That's it...... Desperate?
Suddenly, just as the worker was about to step on the contact, a singing voice came......
It is a song that soothes the soul, a song of hope, a song of salvation......
And the direction in which the song came from......
Everyone present raised their heads, more than 3,000 people, including the worker and dozens of people who followed him, they all raised their heads to look overhead.
Yes, this song comes from the second layer!
