Chapter 2 The Ding in the Starry Sky
Pioneers are a high-risk industry, and in the long and boring solo interstellar journey, no matter what accidents happen, it is possible, and any slight mistake can lead to extremely serious consequences. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
No one knows what is hidden in those fogs, whether it is the sinister environment, or the problems of the spaceship, or the problems of the pioneer's own body, which will make the outcome unpredictable.
Since the existence of the pioneer industry, the death rate of the pioneer has been as high as 19.8%!!
Therefore, it is not so unexpected that the sudden disappearance of the life signal representing the night dust is not so unexpected.
A name on the death table, a generous and unclaimed pension, this is probably the only trace that remains in this world after the night dust. The same is true of other land clearers, and Night Dust should be no exception.
However, when the video of the last few seconds before the signal of the night dust spaceship disappeared was decrypted, his name was destined to be permanently sealed in the history of mankind with this shocking secret!
"The ship's signal suddenly disappeared and was not contacted for thirteen hours, and Pioneer 37 had not sent any unusual or distress signals before that, all of which were indications that Pioneer 37 must have had a sudden accident at the end. In a room full of various instruments, a middle-aged man who looked like a professor pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said to several young people around him.
"We all know that, Professor Yu. A young man in his early twenties replied, "I'd rather like to know what happened to Pioneer 37 in the end, there have been many cases of Pioneer victims in the past, but it's all too rare to see a sudden disappearance like this." You say, this Wasteland Pioneer No. 37 can't have encountered something strange in the end, right?"
At the end of the conversation, the young man seemed to be amused by his speculation, shook his head slightly, and said no more.
"Liu Yong, I think you've seen too many ghost stories during this time, right? You're still a staunch supporter of atheism, why, now you're going to change your faith and switch to theism?"
On the other side, a young man leaning against the wall, about the same age as Liu Yong, said with a smile.
In the long history of human progress, there are many unsolved mysteries that are difficult for science to explain, so some people regard them as evidence of the existence of 'God'. However, with the development of society and the progress of science, these unsolved mysteries have begun to be explained by scientists one by one with scientific methods, although there are still many difficult problems to explain, but most people believe that it is only a matter of time to solve all these puzzles.
So in today's society, most people are staunch atheists, who believe that only science is right, and the rest is nothing more than strange forces.
"Okay, don't talk about it, the video has been parsed, let's see what's going on. ”
When the progress bar in front of the screen symbolizing the completion of video analysis reached 100%, Professor Yu coughed, blocked the whispers of Liu Yong and others, walked to the instrument in front of him, operated for a while, and then saw the LCD screen hanging on the wall in front of everyone suddenly darkened, and then the picture changed, and the LCD screen began to show the picture taken by the spacecraft in the last few seconds before losing contact.
The few young people behind Professor Yu who were interjecting and playing science also quieted down at this time, looking at the screen carefully, although they all knew in their hearts that the reason for the final disappearance of Pioneer No. 37 was probably nothing more than that, but there were not many opportunities to see these valuable materials with their own eyes at the first time, so everyone looked at it very seriously.
The spacecraft is equipped with a complete camera, which can shoot the surrounding scenes of the spacecraft in 360 degrees without dead angles, and the LCD screen is also divided into several pieces, clearly recording the picture captured by each camera.
In the beginning, each camera captured more or less the same image, except for the occasional glimpse of a star that was many light-years away.
However, after only four or five seconds had passed, the situation changed, and in a certain direction of the ship, the starry sky, which was supposed to be eternal darkness and dead silence, gradually became red, like a piece of black iron thrown into a furnace!
After the middle-aged professor saw this scene, he hurriedly adjusted the angle of view to the camera that captured this scene, and suddenly, the entire LCD screen was occupied by the dark red of lava!
"Oh my God, what the hell is this guy going on......"
Liu Yong's mouth opened and he muttered unconsciously, he had never seen this scene in front of him!
However, this was only the beginning, when the video was played to the last moment, looking at the images that appeared on the screen, the exclamations were uninhibited from the mouths of the crowd.
"Oh my God! what ?!! this?"
"This!
“ohmygod!!”
"This is!
The few people in front of the LCD screen were all staring at the screen, it was a picture they had never seen and dared not think of!
In a piece of red like boiling molten iron, from far to near, a rainbow composed of various golden strange symbols gradually appeared, and those golden symbols that made up Changhong, like the oracle bone inscriptions of ancient China on the earth, mysterious and unpredictable, no one could understand the meaning.
The golden symbols shimmered with a mysterious glow, illuminating the dark starry sky and even forcing the surrounding crimson back a bit.
These golden symbols are like bridges to the sky from far and near, one side leads to the distant depths of the universe, and the other side is tightly linked to the spaceship of Pioneer 37!
The whole process lasted two to three seconds, and the video gradually reached the end, and when the last set of pictures in the video was exposed, Professor Yu and several of his young disciples were like being grabbed by the throat, and it was difficult to make any sound, only the deep shock in their eyes remained!
Along the sky of the rainbow paved with these golden symbols, a tripod actually flew over from the distance of this rainbow!
Dingtong's body is bronze colored, and I don't know what material it is made of. Three-legged, two-eared, round-bodied, almost the same as the tripod used for sacrifice in ancient China, but obviously, this tripod is more mysterious and incredible!
Although this tripod is not big, it makes people involuntarily put all their attention on it.
Various patterns are engraved on the tripod, there are phoenixes bathing in fire, real dragons fighting, and the sun and moon stars suspended on it, and there are also ancient ancestors praying on the ground. All kinds of incredible pictures emerge on the ding, like a myth!
The mysterious tripod appeared, and the dark red around the golden rainbow boiled even more seriously, as if he was very uneasy about the appearance of this tripod. That space seemed to have turned into a dark red ocean, and the red waves swept across the sky, slamming towards the golden rainbow and bronze tripod!
But at this moment, those golden and mysterious symbols that make up Changhong suddenly burst out with dazzling golden light, like an immortal golden bridge, suppressed on this dark red sea! The mysterious tripod also emitted a hazy light, and the patterns on the tripod seemed to be revived, with real dragons, phoenixes, and all kinds of fierce beast phantoms projected from the tripod and appeared on the red ocean!
Roar!
The phantom of the alien beast descended above the Red Sea, letting out an earth-shattering roar, staring at all directions, as if assisting the Golden Bridge to suppress this Red Sea.
The Red Sea fluctuated even more violently, as if unwilling to be suppressed like this, and huge waves were set off everywhere, wanting to drown all the strange beast phantoms and golden bridges above. But the golden bridge is like a needle in the sea, let the huge waves be raging, and I will not move!
As for the end of the golden bridge, Night Dust's spaceship was naturally attacked by this red sea, but these golden symbols had already turned into a spherical light curtain, firmly enveloping Night Dust's spaceship and resisting the attack of the red waves.
Gu Ding crossed the sky, following the path paved with golden symbols, all the way towards the spaceship of Night Dust. And as the distance between the ancient tripod and the spaceship got closer and closer, the fluctuations of the red sea below became more and more violent, as if he was very unwilling to let this bronze tripod and the spaceship of the night dust collide together.
The Red Sea's resistance became even more intense, and all the various beast phantoms on it were all dimmed, and even the golden bridge that was eternally strong before became a little shaky as if it couldn't withstand the resistance of the Red Sea.
The red waves were monstrous, and a crack like an endless abyss gradually appeared in the middle of the red sea, gradually dividing the entire red sea into two halves.
The abyss is endless, it is more profound than the deep universe, like a black hole, as if it wants to swallow everything around it, whether it is the golden rainbow, or the ancient tripod on the rainbow, or the spaceship of the night dust, all involuntarily approaching this crack!
Changhong was shining, Gu Ding suddenly stopped for a moment, and then infinite golden symbols gushed out from the mouth of the Ding!
The golden symbols were all over the sky, automatically forming golden chains, and then they all rushed straight into the abyss!
The red waves are turbulent, the abyss is endless, but all this can't stop the Gu Ding on the golden rainbow, and in the end, Gu Ding successfully touched the golden symbol that wrapped the night dust spaceship, and the two met and burst out with brilliant golden light!
And after this scene happened, an extremely unwilling roar of anger came from the abyss in the middle of the Red Sea! That sound shook the heavens and the earth, even through the screen, it made Professor Yu and the others feel cold!
The picture came to an abrupt end, and the picture on the LCD screen returned to darkness, and it was already the final picture.
"This ...... This ......"
Liu Yong swallowed, the expression on his face was like seeing a ghost, of course, most of the expressions of the other people in the room were not much different from him.
The golden symbol of the rainbow, the mysterious bronze tripod, the red ocean, the endless abyss?
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Liu Yong and the others would definitely not believe all this, but today, these things are really staged in front of their eyes!
"Could it be a deliberately made video by Pioneer 37 to trick us?"
After a long time, a round-faced girl with glasses broke the silence.
"Impossible. ”
In the face of this girl's questioning, Professor Yu shook his head, "The spaceships of the Wasteland Pioneers are all allocated by the federal government, and no form of modification is allowed, and the core program components are under the control of the government, and no one can tamper with them without alarming the government." The video signal was indeed captured by the spacecraft's camera equipment, which cannot be faked. ”
There is no way to fake, that is, it is all true.
Thinking of this, the crowd fell silent again. If all this is true, then the outlook on life they have built up in the past 20 years will be completely ruined.
"Maybe it's just a special cosmic phenomenon caused by some reason?" Professor Yu explained vaguely, and then said: "But these are not things we should worry about, now you all follow me, no one is missing, we have to report this matter quickly, it is estimated that the gag order above will come down soon, you haven't seen anything today, and you don't know anything, understand?!"
At the back, Professor Yu's voice was already very stern, and these young people naturally said yes again and again after hearing Professor Yu's words, but presumably what happened today will be forever engraved in their life journey, indelible!
