Chapter 290: Sub-engine

"This time, you're going to be disappointed." Orin walked up to Zhou Sen's side and sighed.

"You won't be disappointed, don't worry." Zhou Sen said with a smile.

"But it seems that the air pressure has not changed."

"This is a huge space city, not so fast, besides, we are not starting the main engine, it should be backup energy or something, after the backup energy starts, it should be given to the light brain...... Start heating up the computer......"

"Why heat up a computer?"

"Many computers in the ancient Earth era could not work at low temperatures, so a heating process was required, and when the computers were operating normally, the main engine would automatically start and the pressure on the ship would be restored." Zhou Sen stared at the flashing lights.

"Why does this siren keep screaming?" Orin kind of hates the screeching sirens.

"It should be that some safety device has detected the air pressure and temperature, so a safety alarm is sounded. From the current point of view, the safety of this spaceship is not bad, if my guess is correct, the main control light brain...... The main computer automatically starts the main engine, restores temperature and pressure, including the gravity system, and more. Zhou Sen found a chair and sat down with the help of the faint light of the indicator light.

"Doesn't anyone start automatically?"

"Theoretically not."

"Ah...... That...... So why does it start automatically now? ”

"Aren't we human?"

“……”

"This spacecraft has a certain intelligence, it should detect a human, that is, after detecting signs of life, it will take the initiative to sound an alarm and heat up the computer......"

"Zhou Sen, you are really smart." Olin looked at his side cheek through Zhou Sen's helmet and lost his mind for a while, this man has never let her down, starting from Mogan Prison, he can be described as invincible, from killing people to killing gods, all the way like a bamboo.

"Hahaha...... The computer booted up! ”

Zhou Sen didn't notice Ao Lin at all, his eyes were staring at the dense screen in front of the main console, at this time, there were already bright spots on the screen, and then, the bright spots quickly expanded.

"Tick!"

"Didi!"

The main control room suddenly lit up, all the screens lit up, including some lighting equipment, and at the same time, there was a "click", and immediately, Zhou Sen and Orin felt a slight tremor of the spaceship.

Starting the main engine!

The first start was not successful, because, the tremor disappeared without warning, without the slightest regularity, and it is clear that the first start of the main engine was not successful.

The second time was still unsuccessful.

"Click!"

"Click!"

"Click!"

……

Just when Zhou Sen and Ao Lin were anxiously waiting, suddenly, a series of electric brake beating sounds sounded in the main control room.

"What's going on?" Orin asked nervously. It is very strange for people to break the jar when they are in despair, but once they have a fixed hope, they will immediately cheer up. Orin is like this, she has no hope of facing death calmly, but now she doesn't want to die, after all, it is better to die than to live, not to mention, the person she likes is by her side.

"There are two possibilities."

"Huh?"

"The backup power supply has been unable to provide enough starting power for the main engine because it has been too long, so when the main engine has been unable to start, the computer will optimize the choice to start the secondary engine first...... In such a giant city, theoretically there is no sub-engine, the so-called sub-engine, most likely other low-power engines, these engines are mainly for the mobile city in the human life support...... By starting any of these engines, the spacecraft is able to create a local safe environment and, of course, provide starting energy for the main engines and avoid running out of backup power......"

"That's good."

"Hopefully my speculation is correct." Zhou Sen stared at the computing screens that had been put into work, and the data on the screens were constantly being updated, which was dazzling.

"I have confidence in you, because, up to now, you have never made a mistake." Orin said.

"It is impossible for a man not to make mistakes." Zhou Sen shook his head.

"You don't."

"I didn't make mistakes before, because every decision is a matter of life and death for me, and any of my decisions determine whether I can see the glory of tomorrow's stars, so I will do my best, but often, when people make mistakes, it is not when they are in hardships and difficulties and when they are in a desperate situation, but when they are smooth sailing and gentle, at this time, mistakes are fatal." Zhou Sen said lightly.

"Have you made a mistake?"

"Yes. Otherwise, why should I be a bandit! A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Zhou Sen's mouth, this topic reminded him of his identity as a scientist Zhou Sen, and he had been avoiding this identity.

"People sometimes can't choose their own lives." Orin said quietly.

"Yes." Zhou Sen thought so.

"Huh...... Air pressure recovers! Orin was pleasantly surprised.

"Yes, the temperature is also recovering."

"But I didn't hear the engine start?!" Orin wondered.

"You think all the engines can make such a giant ship tremble!"

“……”

"This is a mobile city, I don't know how many tons, and ordinary small engines can't shake this giant space city when they start, so it's normal for us to feel it. If a small engine is turned on, we can all feel that this spaceship is likely to disintegrate. Zhou Sen said with a smile.

"I see...... Hey, I feel the wind...... Yes...... Zhou Sen, look ......" Orin was so frightened that he clung to Zhou Sen.

Zhou Sen also saw it.

I saw that the corpses on the ground collapsed and turned into ashes and scattered in the air, and then disappeared without a trace, the scene was extremely weird and terrifying.

"The ship's life circulation system and self-cleaning function are activated, and these corpses are so old that as long as the air flows, they immediately turn to ashes, and then they are sucked away by the ship's life circulation system...... It's good that these corpses are a bit infiltrating here, and it's good to be sucked away, otherwise, it will take a lot of effort and feet. ”

"And a lot more." Orin pointed to the depleted corpse.

"For sure, the body structure of each person is different, for example, after the death of a person who has just eaten, it will quickly decay, if a person who has been hungry for a long time dies, the corpse can easily become a dry corpse, and in addition, the clothes on these people are different, which will also affect the change of the corpse...... Hey, wait, I'll remove these dried corpses first, or I'll have some trouble when the gravity system is fully restored. ”

Zhou Sen found an empty room near the main control room, and then put all the dried corpses in the main control room into the empty room.

Orin also helped clean up the main control room, and put some of the personal belongings carried by the corpse into the room where the corpse was kept, after all, they will spend a long time in the main control room in the future, whether it is a corpse or a relic, looking at it will always affect the mood......
