The new shuttle, with a number of small and medium-sized missile embrasures and an external large warship heavy gun, has also modified the built-in energy circuit of the shuttle, and added a new shuttle energy reserve system, which can last about 60% longer than the old shuttle.

Of course, speed, engine power, engine, etc., are all old-fashioned shuttle style, in fact, even the old-fashioned shuttle, is also the latest scientific and technological achievements of mankind in the thirties of the 21st century, with the current human science and technology, especially with the hope of the scientific and technological reserves, to copy it is very reluctant, to transform its main components is simply impossible, the only transformation of the energy circuit and energy reserve system, in fact, is also thanks to the blessing of alien plants, with a new conductor alloy, this is the possibility of transformation.

However, this transformation is limited to this, if you want to go further, then you must make the current technology of human beings go further, such as ...... A destination made by a new type of shuttle!

That area of alien battleship ruins!

There were supposed to be two new shuttles, but the other one was on the third floor of the underground temporary settlement, and the new one that was still being built was buried after the earthquake, so so far the Hope only has one old shuttle and one new one.

Regarding the trial candidates of this new shuttle, naturally there is nothing to say, and the two people who chose Ying and Li Haiyun are both new humans, Eagle is the clear one, and Li Haiyun is the sensor, in fact, Zhang Heng or Ren Zhuyue should be added, and there will be no more accidents with one more predictor.

However, it is a pity that Zhang Heng is still too weak to carry out this trial voyage at all, and he is still recovering.

In fact, Ren Zhaoyue's surname is really in line with the word Ren, but it is Ren with the surname Ren, the surname of a squeamish lady, not good when tired, not thirsty, not hot...... Well, the Hope has been at a normal temperature of more than 20 degrees, and it can't be hot, but it's not hot when it runs, so it's not hot.

In this way, her military training has been delayed for several periods, and the most important thing is that a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl can't be beaten, and if she scolds, she will ...... As a prophet hero who has participated in the rescue operation of the underground temporary settlement, and is second only to Zhang Heng, who dares to scold her?

All in all, such a squeamish woman is simply not a soldier's material.

Because of this, Yao Yuan, who felt a little headache, couldn't wait to join in the trial voyage by himself, anyway, he also had the ability to predict, although it was not as good as Zhang Heng and Ren Yanyue, but it was always okay as a warning device, right?

However, after being persuaded by many people, Yao Yuan finally gave up this plan, and the final candidates were locked on Ying and Li Haiyun.

The first trial operation lasted for six hours, in addition to the navigation of the new shuttle, maneuvering, energy consumption, energy reserves, etc., the weapons installed on it were also moderately experimented, missiles, machine guns, etc., basically in line with the results calculated by those scientists, especially the range of the machine gun is longer than expected, and it can basically be used as a short-range close to medium-range weapon.

In this way, the trial operation began and ended smoothly, a total of six sea trials before and after, except for some basic minor problems, there were no major problems, therefore, the hardware conditions for exploring the ruins of alien battleships have been met.

"Then it's time to explore the question of who to choose."

Yao Yuan looked at the members of the Black Star Squad in front of him and said: "I decided that more than eighty percent of the early explorers, or even all of them are new humans, there will be about eleven to twelve people to carry out the first batch of exploration, and the Hope will stay three hundred to five hundred kilometers away from the ruins belt, and then the new shuttle will carry the first batch of explorers and enter the ruins." ”

"The whole exploration operation can be roughly divided into four steps, the first is to shuttle to the outermost part of the ruins, the first step to obtain various metal fragments of different sizes, and carry the Hope to do various technical analysis, so as to accurately determine the scientific and technological level of this space battleship group, at the same time, this first step is also to try to approach the ruins, very dangerous, to pay attention to the possible attack of the alien warship space defense system at any time, such as lasers, particle beams, or super power or ultra-fast missiles, or even both, the first step is to elicit any possible attack ......"

"It's dangerous." Yao Yuan reminded again.

At this moment, it was dinner time, and today was also the end of the last day of the trial voyage of the new shuttle, so Yao Yuan summoned all the members of the Black Star team, and at the same time, he began to tell them about the next alien spacecraft exploration mission at the dinner table.

"The first step is the most dangerous, so when the first step is to explore the operation, I will personally lead the team, and then Zhang Heng will also participate, and there is the eagle, the three of us will go, once we feel the danger, we will return immediately." Yao Yuan continued.

At this time, Wang Guangzheng suddenly asked: "Lao Yao, what about the unmanned aircraft?" Hasn't a scientist proposed it before? That kind of small mining machine will use an unmanned longitudinal system, and through calculation, it can go up to a range of 1,000 kilometers, and it is not enough to use unmanned aerial vehicles directly? ”

Yao Yuan shook his head, he picked up a spring roll from the table, took a big bite and said: "The key problem is that we don't know the technological level of this alien civilization, yes, when the Hope goes to the ruins for a thousand kilometers, no less than fifty unmanned mining machines will be released, which will go all the way to the inside of this ruin, of course, because of the distance problem and the radiation resistance problem of long-range technology, this batch of unmanned mining machines with low production cost cannot be recovered, But it is already possible to trigger some of the possible alien defense systems. ”

"But! This is just a guess based on the level of science and technology of our human beings, and the situation in this regard is thanks to two scientists, Allen and Polly, who put forward a different point of view, that is, the level of scientific and technological progress is different, and the treatment of the same problem will be completely different, and the key point is that we do not know the level of science and technology of the other party. ”

Speaking of this, Yao Yuan looked at the people around him who didn't understand it, and he explained with a wry smile: "I didn't think about it that much at first, but after their explanation, I myself broke out in a cold sweat, let me make a simple analogy, fishing...... As any veteran angler knows, many fish will test your bait and make your float look wobbly, and the novice angler will immediately pull up the rod and the fish will run away. ”

"Skilled anglers, on the other hand, will tell if the fish is eating the bait or the fish is tempting, and only when the fish eats the bait will they pull up the rod violently."

"It's the same thing." Yao Yuan finished biting the spring roll in one bite, and after swallowing it, he continued: "If it is the level of technology of our human beings, when we are traveling on aliens, we will scan everything that is close to Hope to see what it is, if it is an asteroid, a meteor, or a rock fragment or something, we will avoid them, or if we can't avoid it, we will break it." ”

"If it is an unnatural substance, such as a round metal ball, that approaches our Hope from a distance with its own power, what will be our first reaction?"

Everyone was silent for a moment, and the eagle was the first to say categorically: "Destroy it!" ”

"Yes, wreck it!" Yao Yuan nodded and said: "There is a problem here, that is, we are completely ignorant of this metal ball, we don't know what it is, even if it keeps emitting electronic signals, we still don't know what it is, so for the sake of safety, we will destroy it as soon as possible...... But what if that was a signal of peace from an alien? Once destroyed, it means that war is coming! ”

"So, when the tech level is in our state, we'll be wary of anything that comes near the Hope, and be ready to destroy it...... But what if the civilization of this ruin is much higher than ours? For example, their detection instruments can easily analyze all the electronic signals, and can analyze the structure of our human language and its meaning in the shortest possible time, and may even directly analyze that this metal ball does not have any attack power and detection ability? ”

"If that's the case, what would you do if it were you?"

This time, Wang Guangzheng said: "Capture it, look at the information it contains, or analyze its technology and so on." ”

"Yes, exactly." Yao Yuan nodded and said: "The level of science and technology is different, when facing the same problem, the solution is also different, those unmanned mining machines do not have any weapon attack power, if the level of this civilization in front of them has gone to the level that we just said, then they are most likely to capture it, not directly destroy it, of course, this civilization has disappeared, and what remains is only ruins, so the capture mechanism is no longer possible, but there are still some very huge fragments of this civilization's space warship, No one can guarantee whether its weapons mechanism has been discontinued. ”

Yao Yuan said this, he sighed and said: "Just because we don't know that its civilization level has reached that point, it is definitely not possible to just send unmanned mining machines, maybe unmanned mining machines can easily pass those weapon mechanisms, but the Hope may be beaten into a sieve as soon as it passes, and it is absolutely impossible for me to risk the future of mankind, because of this, we need a miniature version of the Hope, manned, with signal communication, weapons and equipment, etc., to make the first step of common sense." ”

"Alright, that's the first step in this operation, if everything is safe, then the second step is to form a new human team, including me, a total of ten to twelve people to enter the ruins to search ......"

"Therefore, in order to be able to successfully form this team and train the rest of the new humans with great value, I have decided to successfully recruit new human beings, or newtypans in English, to comprehensively discover all known and unknown new humans in all human beings, find them, train them, and teach them how to use the skills and precautions of new human beings."

"New Human, Newtype...... It is likely that we human beings are the only weapon that we humans can rely on to fight against high-level civilizations with low-level civilizations! ”
