Chapter 395: Artificial Paradise

After arranging these preparations, Shen Chao confirmed the operation of each system to the central control room, especially the readiness of several nearby space-time door stabilizers and the operation of the fort. After confirming that a qiē was normal, he opened the first space-time portal to the Alien Plane.

Although it was not the first time he had seen it, the students still couldn't help but sigh at this magical ability, but Shen Chao was not as interested as them, because he had already opened and closed thousands of space-time doors leading to different planes.

Due to his greatly improved control over the ability to traverse, this space-time gate opened quickly, and under the gaze of everyone, it only took him less than 1 second to expand the newborn space-time gate to a diameter of about 5 meters. Enough for any vehicle here to pass guò.

After the space-time door was fully opened, Shen Chao made a gesture backwards, and immediately a space-time door stabilizer with a freight chassis was opened by remote control, and the docking with the space-time door was quickly completed.

Judging from the proficiency of this set of collaborations, Shen Chao and the others have rehearsed this whole set of collaborations many times. Otherwise, it would not be possible to have this kind of feeling like an arm and a finger.

After using a steady device to cover the newborn space-time door, Shen Chao took a short break and then began to open the second and third space-time gates...... It wasn't until the sixth space-time gate was opened that he stopped what he was doing.

The first stage of the rookie exam was the plane behind the 6 space-time gates, and now that the space-time gates had been opened, after confirming that all the stabilizers were locked, he made a few gestures to the students waiting in the bunker behind him, signaling that their exams had begun. Then he led the team out of the crossing zone.

After seeing his start signal, the trainees immediately went into action according to the predetermined plan. A squad quickly rushed out of each bunker in front of the six space-time gates, and they were all the first teams scheduled to enter these test planes.

Their task is both simple and complex. The simple thing is that they only need to perform basic detection and reconnaissance at this stage of the mission, and the complication lies in the fact that they are all doing this for the first time.

If they mess up something important, not only will they slow down their progress and be deducted points, but the other teams behind them will not follow through the space-time gate to support.

Their chief captain, Shen Chao, may even be angry and directly close the space-time gate after their messing up operation, leaving them to spend the whole exam in isolation.

They all know how the quarantine measures will be enforced, although it is only a theoretical concept. But they've made it clear in the previous lessons.

If the team responsible for the initial exploration is encircled or encounters an unknown danger. And when the difficulty of rescuing them immediately was beyond the capabilities of the expedition team, in theory, Shen Chao would implement quarantine measures.

The implementation of the quarantine procedure is also simple, which is to close the space-time gate leading to the dangerous plane. Physically isolated from any possible danger hài spreads over.

After isolating the target plane. Those who stayed on Shen Chao's side had plenty of time to analyze the type of danger on the other side. Find a way to restrain yourself and eventually return there and rescue the members in danger.

But there is a small side effect here. Since time only passes normally in the plane where Shen Chao is located and the plane through the space-time gate network, it is inevitable that the quarantined people will experience some space-time dislocation after returning.

Of course, these are only theoretically the worst states, and no member of the expedition has been unlucky enough to do so, nor has Shen Chao ever quarantined any of the explored planes.

So, no one is really worried that they're going to be so unlucky. After leaving the bunker, the six squads quickly rushed to the open space-time door, and used the probe monitor on the stabilized device to observe the situation on the other side.

It is worth noting that the current space-time gate stabilizer is already a stereotyped version, in addition to the main function of emitting high-energy laser stabilizer space-time gate, the main structure is also equipped with a detection device that can pass through the space-time gate.

The detection device is an electronic pod supported by a robotic arm, the size of the pod is about the size of a coffee table, and it is covered with sophisticated detection instruments, which can transmit images and various scan information from the other side of the space-time door.

After looking at the images on the monitor and confirming the safety of the opposite side, each team rearranged their formation according to the terrain on the opposite side, and then sent their own soldiers to pass through first.

Then, according to the actual situation on the opposite side, each team chooses to drive a vehicle or enter the target plane on foot to reconnoitre, without a vehicle, the natural target is smaller and less easy to find.

However, using vehicles has a great advantage in speed, so everyone chooses according to what they see.

The team in front of Team 102 on the initial exploration mission chose to drive a hammerhead chariot and a shuttle over after a brief reconnaissance. The other squads also explored at their own pace.

Ten minutes later, all six advance reconnaissance teams drove through their respective space-time gates in different vehicles or on foot, and began their initial exploration mission. And Lu Feng and the other team leaders led their respective team members to look at the space-time gate in front of them behind the bunker, waiting for the departure order.

According to the plan, the 102 team commanded by Lu Feng will be the second group to pass through the space-time gate in front of them. As a result, his command terminal has the latest information relayed from the command.

If there is news from the group of students who have just passed, he will get it at the same time as the command. So he waited patiently. Barely 20 minutes later, the team on the other side of the space-time gate finally sent back the first briefing.

They confirmed a basic profile of the target plane, including the most important timelines, and according to their findings, the Elysium plane is currently in early 2159.

The basic profile of the plane is similar to that depicted in the movie, and the power structure of the entire planet is basically hollowed out by a private high-tech company called Armadyne.

The company spent more than half a century building a luxurious rich man's paradise in space before the planet's fossil energy was exhausted, the Elysium space station.

The space station hosts a handful of people who can afford to land and live, where every "citizen" of Elysium can enjoy the most luxurious material living conditions that humanity has ever seen.

The vast majority of the people who remain on the planet live in poverty and in all kinds of dangerous conditions. The gap between the rich and the poor and the gap in life expectancy in human society as a whole has reached an unprecedented level.

The per capita allocation of education and medical resources has reached a new low in human history. The wealthy living on the Elysium space station enjoy the fruits of a high-tech civilization, with an average life expectancy of 200 years.

And ordinary people, who are no different from them in terms of physique, can only live on the surface of rampant crime, lack of energy, and strict pollution, and the average life expectancy is only a pitiful 45 years!

Although this kind of information has a certain emotional impact, it is not helpful for their next tasks, so Lu Feng skipped this part without thinking about it and looked at the attachment part in the briefing.

In the first batch of attachments, he quickly found the basic map of the planned reconnaissance points after their passing, although the quality and accuracy of this map was not as good as the electronic map on the main plane Earth, but it was enough for basic navigation.

After confirming this basic information, Lu Feng shared some of the important information in the briefing into the team's shared channel, and everyone quickly checked the map information and the basic positioning numbers they would use after passing through guò.

Although the briefing did not contain the specific number of battles of the humanoid fighter qì that appeared in the movie that they most wanted to know, the more detailed map information and technical analysis basically made up for it.

After a few more minutes, the command sent a new action instruction, asking the 102 team to immediately collect the vehicle and prepare to pass through the space-time gate.

The reason why they didn't choose to get both ground and air vehicles like the initial reconnaissance team was because their mission focus was completely different. They're there to investigate and arrest people, and they're fast-in, fast-out, so the shuttle is the best vehicle choice.

There was also a team doing the same at the other space-time gate, and it seemed that they weren't the only second group of operations teams to receive the order to go.

Soon after they received the vehicle, the official order to move came down, and Lu Feng had the pilots of the two shuttles in front and behind line line up, quickly opening the space-time gate.

As soon as they came out of the space-time gate, they entered a large green primeval forest, and there were several improvised forts and machine qì people left behind at the exit.

A few kilometers away, on a hill, there is a camouflaged hammerhead chariot squatting on the top of the mountain to carry out a guard mission, and the observation radar on the hammerhead chariot is very sensitive and has a large coverage.

In this way, a vehicle can effectively warn of approaching vehicles and human targets within a radius of thousands of square kilometers. That's why the first team that came in to do the initial scouting would take it with them.

When Lu Feng saw it, he said hello to the people left behind in the hammerhead chariot in the communication channel outside the team, and asked the driver to drive the shuttle to the sky.

The forest they appeared in was in South America, far away from several of their target points, and the actual area of the forest was not particularly large, so they had to rise as high as possible to avoid being seen by the indigenous people here.

Their shuttles avoided the world's less developed civilian and military exploration networks and rose to the top of the upper atmosphere.

The reason why it did not continue to fly up into low Earth orbit is because the Elysium space station in the movie has a relatively strong detection ability, and it is always concerned about the vehicles that are out of the atmosphere. to avoid being landed by surface refugees.

Lu Feng is reluctant to risk being discovered now, even if the odds are slim. At this stage of their mission, it was not yet time to land in Elysium, so they began to control their speed to the first target point after entering the upper atmosphere. (To be continued......)
