Episode 5 Military bases
Speaking of the third solution to the appearance of the wormhole, Smith's eyes flashed, and his gaze at Linda suddenly had a hint of anticipation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"The third plan, which scientists developed not long ago, was approved by the Special Committee on Earth Crisis as soon as it was proposed, and now we call it Operation 'Lock the Stars'. ”
"Scientists believe that the reason for the formation of the wormhole is very much because in another world of the wormhole, somehow gathered an extremely powerful and mysterious energy, and this huge energy formed an energy field for various reasons, distorted time and space, and happened to form a channel connecting the earth and that world, which is the origin of the wormhole. At present, this energy field is still in an extremely unstable state. Scientists believe that as long as the mysterious energy constantly generated in the wormhole is eliminated or slightly weakened, the energy field will be deviated, and the wormhole connecting to the earth may disappear, so that the crisis of the earth can be resolved. ”
"However, if this energy field continues to remain stable for a period of time, the wormhole will gradually strengthen and take shape, eventually connecting the Earth to that world. Even if the energy field has disappeared by then, or the energy that transports the energy field is weakened, it will not affect the wormhole. According to scientists' calculations, this time is running out. ”
Hearing Smith's description, Linda finally understood that the so-called 'star-locking' action is actually to interfere with the energy of the interstellar energy field and destroy the root cause of the formation of wormholes, which involves advanced knowledge such as astronomy and quantum mechanics, and its complexity and arduousness must be realized by concentrating the wisdom of all mankind. However, at present, human beings' understanding of energy and cosmic space has just begun, and the understanding of energy fields and wormholes is even less.
Thinking of this, Linda suddenly had an idea and asked, "You said that the energy that formed the wormhole is a mysterious energy, is this energy an alien energy?"
Smithton laughed, nodded violently, and said, "That's right! This energy is the alien energy you've been working on!"
Lynda suddenly brightened, and was not much surprised by this answer.
Smith added: "After a period of exploration, scientists developed an anomaly that formed wormhole energy, and later, after some knowledgeable people pointed out and verified, we found that this energy turned out to be a foreign energy. After some research, the scientists believe that if we can find someone who understands the laws of alien energy and has studied it, then we have great hope of finding the weakness of the alien energy field and eliminating the wormhole! So Blue Shield is trying to find people all over the world who understand alien energy, but there are really very few, and in the end, we really have to thank God! Through various ways, we finally found a few people who understand this energy, and you are one of them. ”
At this moment, Linda finally came to her senses and finally understood the real reason why Smith was looking for him. He never imagined that the alien energy, which he had studied for many years but had not been recognized by the academic community, would be the key to solving the current crisis. I was originally just an insignificant little person, but now I have become an important player in solving the world crisis, and I really don't know whether to be excited or worried.
But Linda quickly calmed down and said modestly, "My research on alien energy has not reached a very high level, and it is only at a superficial stage, so it may not help you much in your work. ”
Smith smiled and said, "Mr. Linda, you are humble. As far as we know, you have built your own machines capable of generating and absorbing alien energy in the past few years, and have observed and captured some of the phenomena of alien energy in nature. This is the important technical support that we need for our third programme. Now that several other researchers of extraterrestrial energy have been found by us more than one planet ago, and have joined the action plan, you are left alone. Mr. Linda, the success of Operation 'Star Lock' depends on the efforts of a few of you. ”
Hearing this, Linda suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of mission and responsibility, and he couldn't help but refuse. After a moment, he said firmly, "Thank you, Mr. Smith, for telling me this, and whatever you need me to do, I will do my best to get it done." ”
Smith smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Linda, we are confident that with your strong support, our project will be a success! Now there are more than 5 hours away from the destination, please take a good rest, I hope you can recuperate and prepare for tomorrow's work." With that, he left where he was.
Linda lay in his seat, quietly silent, the conversation with Smith and the others just now, finally clarified everything completely, but after knowing the truth of the matter, he felt an unprecedented pressure. On the one hand, the terrible crisis that wormholes can bring about is a great threat to human security, and at the same time, he is worried that his own ability is limited and he cannot contribute much to humanity's efforts to resolve the crisis. Linda wanted to call her parents, but as soon as she picked up her phone, she hesitated and put it down. He closed his eyes, sorted out his somewhat chaotic emotions, and then slowly recalled and thought about the research on alien energy over the years, as well as some of the previous bold ideas and application methods, and unconsciously fell asleep...
In East Africa, Djibouti, a small coastal country in the western part of the Gulf of Aden, has a very large military base in the southeastern suburbs of its capital. As early as the Cold War, the U.S. military secretly established a small base here, its infrastructure is extremely complete, and even equipped with a small airport and port, but because the U.S. military does not have much military needs nearby, this base has been semi-idle.
Around the beginning of 2010, everything suddenly changed. This small base suddenly flooded with a large number of personnel overnight, and countless materials were transported, expanding this small base into a huge base complex in a very short period of time at an astonishing speed. What is strange is that among these people are not only Americans, but also people from the European Union, China, Russia, Israel and other countries and regions, not only military personnel, but also a large number of scientists and technicians. The United States has deployed a large number of elite troops from various military bases at home and around the world, and other countries have also sent their own elite troops to garrison here. People living in the vicinity of Djibouti were naturally surprised by this, and many people thought that Djibouti had been taken over by the United Nations, or that the United States was going to unite other countries to take action against the neighboring Somali rebels.
What is even more strange is that the Djibouti government has not reacted in the slightest dissatisfaction with the sudden deployment of military forces in the country, not only assisting the countries in expanding the bases, but also maintaining strict secrecy about the matter, and at the same time expropriating a large number of land and various facilities such as ports and ports in the vicinity of the bases, carrying out large-scale relocation of residents, and designating a 20-kilometer area of military isolation within the base area.
Personnel from various countries frequently carry out various activities at the base, and also carry out a lot of technical research work. Fighter planes take off and land over the base almost every moment, and every few days, several huge scientific research and engineering ships and warships come to the base port, loading and unloading some things and then leaving in a hurry. Every staff member at the base seemed to be very busy and nervous, as if they had to face something terrible every day. Most bizarrely, it has been claimed that the terrifying roars of creatures can often be heard faintly near the base, but these sounds are not like those of any kind of terrestrial creatures.
The rumours surrounding the Djibouti base, combined with the presence of nearby pirates, make the place seem mysterious.
In the evening, the plane carrying Linda and others crossed the United States, flew across the Atlantic, entered the African continent, crossed half the world, and finally landed on the runway of the airport at this secret base.
Linda took her duffel bag and walked down from the plane that had just stopped with Smith and the others. I saw that on the boundless airfield, hundreds of fighter planes of all kinds and other types of warplanes were parked. Many people were busy, some planes were preparing to take off, some were preparing to land. In the sky, Linda unexpectedly spotted 2 Chinese J-10 fighters with a huge roar sweeping over the base, looking at this busy scene, although he was prepared in his heart, he was still taken aback.
On the runway far from the base, an F-16 fighter seemed to have just returned from being wounded on the battlefield, and one wing of the fighter plane was emitting thick black smoke at the moment, as if it had been hit by something. It can be regarded as a brave pilot who was able to survive in such a badly damaged plane. The pilot wearing the helmet was scrambling out of the fighter plane, while the ground firefighters were busy extinguishing the fighter.
Linda was a little surprised, as he had the impression that there was no armed conflict in this place at this time, as if it were in the news. Could it be that the damage to this fighter plane was caused by those monsters?
Smith tugged at Linda, who seemed to be in a daze, and said, "Mr. Linda, let's go over there, please come with me." Linda hurriedly followed Smith and the others and walked out of the tarmac. Walking out of the airport, Smith called a Humvee parked on the side of the road, the driver seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and after seeing Linda and others get into the car, he set off for the destination immediately without being reminded by Smith.
On the road, Linda saw many vehicles carrying soldiers and various equipment passing back and forth, and all kinds of armored vehicles were parked on both sides of the road, as well as rows and rows of barracks, with an estimated total number of thousands.
Judging from the soldiers' military insignia, there are not only the seals and rangers of the US army, the signal flags of Russia, the gendarmerie of France and other special forces of various countries, but also the elite forces of various arms of other countries. It seems that, as Smith said, the emergence of wormholes has attracted the attention of heads of state around the world, and countries around the world are mobilizing their most elite forces to solve this crisis.
What made Linda feel a little worried was that almost every soldier he saw had extremely serious and solemn expressions on their faces, and the entire base was shrouded in a tense and oppressive atmosphere, and the seriousness of the situation seemed to be more serious than imagined. But what made him even more uneasy was that at the moment when the plane landed and came to the base, he suddenly felt a trace of extremely terrifying and dangerous feelings, as if there was an extremely terrifying thing hidden in the depths of the base.
But this feeling of danger did not last long. As if stimulated by that danger, with a burst of warmth coming from a falling object on Linda's chest, the ominous aura he felt was quickly expelled from his body, and his mind immediately regained his calm and composure, but his gaze towards the base was more solemn.
