Chapter 102: The Spaceship
After the completion of the low-earth orbit space port, preparations for the trip to the Arctic continent began in full swing.
This is a crucial operation related to the "Journey to the Underworld", and even the future fate of "Uriel", and everyone does not want to miss this historic moment.
After several rounds of discussions, the number of people going to the Arctic continent was finally decided.
Because of the need for core members to drive various vehicles, the Mamba designated a total of thirty-five people, and the followers of the "Lord" were only forty-five, and only ten remained at the base.
The task of staying at the base is also very important, so Fran has to sit here.
In addition to the core members, the operation also brought 150 workers, all of whom were trained for combat because of the possibility of fighting.
Batches of armor and combat vehicles were all ready, and the training of personnel was almost complete.
In order to train these ordinary workers, White Tang even conducted a live-fire exercise, so that everyone could experience what war in the interstellar age was like.
However, most of these workers can only play the role of the atmosphere group, and the real main force of the battle is still those core members, who are all capable themselves, plus equipped with elite armor and powerful combat vehicles, they are the sharp knives of the entire team.
The "Voyager" space carrier in the space port is also under construction day and night, and Susie, who is in charge of the construction mission, suddenly tells White Tang a piece of news that day.
"Mr. Tang, I recently noticed something that is a little unusual, but I'm not sure if there is a problem." Susie didn't use the communicator, but went straight to White Tang and told him in person.
White Tang nodded: "You can tell me anything." ”
Susie said: "The construction of the Voyager transport ship is almost complete these days, and I find that every day Elena goes to the space port to check the progress of the construction of the transport ship. ”
"She said that her level of secrecy was set by you, and she was allowed to visit the construction of the space port, and I can't stop it, just to remind you."
"Has she been back there every day since the Voyager was built?" ”
Susie thought for a moment and said, "No, it was only in the days when the transport ship was about to be completed that she came to see it every day, and it took more than an hour to look at it, as if she was stunned." ”
White Tang replied: "Okay, I'll go and see her, you don't have to worry too much, she is a friend and not an enemy to us at this stage, and there will be no hostile behavior." ”
This is the first time that White Tang has come to the low-Earth orbit space port these days, which is a bit far from the "Divine Sleep" base, and he is really busy these days, and he has not had time to come over to check the progress of the construction of the transport ship.
As always, Cha Mo followed behind White Tang, and she is now inseparable from White Tang, so to speak, both as a nanny and as a bodyguard.
White Tang was also accustomed to her following, and asked casually, "Cha Mo, what do you think Elena is doing in the space port?" ”
Cha Mo replied: "Maybe she has some special feelings for the 'Voyager' transport, I remember the adjutant said that this kind of transport ship was the most common means of space transportation in the last era, maybe Elena is in love." ”
White Tang smiled: "You are quite emotional, but I think it is also the case, Elena has lived alone for thousands of years, and it will definitely be a little touched to see what she was familiar with back then." ”
The two of them came to the outside of the spaceport, and the huge hive was lit up all night, and the Voyager space carrier had begun to put the finishing touches on it.
Walking into the space port, in the dock, a huge shuttle-shaped spaceship is being set up in mid-air, and various mechanical arms are carrying out their own work under the command of the central computer.
On the checkstand on the third floor, White Down saw Elena.
She really seemed to be fascinated, staring at the shuttle ship in front of her without blinking her eyes.
"Hey! Elena! White Tang greeted her from afar.
Hearing White Tang's voice, Elena came back to her senses, she looked at White Tang and Cha Mo who came over, and replied lightly: "Hello, Mr. Tang, and Cha Min. ”
"We heard that the transport ship was almost finished, so we came over and had a look." White Tang casually chatted: "Did you come to see it too?" ”
Elena didn't pierce the meaning of his words, and continued to look at the spaceship and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen it. ”
"It? Does it refer to the 'Voyager' space carrier? The last time you saw it, it was in the last era, right? White Tang asked.
Elena was silent for a while: "It's been so long, but I feel like I ...... yesterday"
"I was born in a space fortress, and when I was seven years old, I followed my parents to Uriel......
Her gaze was a little confused: "It was the first time I was on the Voyager space carrier, and I remember it was called the Thorntree......
"Although it's just a very ordinary transport ship, and the pilot's skills are terrible......"
"But it was it that carried us to our new home."
Elena looked up at the dark sky: "At that time, before the sheltering plan was launched, my parents and I just sat outside the house, counting the stars in the sky. ”
"We reclaimed wasteland, planted trees, and raised livestock, thinking that we would be able to live a dull life like this."
"Subspace Storm, Blood God, Zerg...... After a series of blows, the whole world turned into darkness, and I was left alone. ”
She took a few deep breaths to soothe her emotions, then turned back to White Tang and Cha Mo and said, "I'm sorry for making you laugh." ”
White Don shook his head and leaned on the railing to look at the ship under construction: "I also had a dream in which humans roam the galaxy and nothing can stop us. ”
"The whole universe is embraced by us, and everyone is able to live the life they want."
"It was such a wonderful world that I didn't even want to wake up from a dream."
He breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "Unfortunately, dreams always wake up, and the only thing that makes me happy is that the 'Lord' has guided us from the ground to the earth, from darkness to light. ”
"Next, we are going to reach a new realm, we will control the entire 'Uriel' star, and we will return to space."
"Perhaps, my dream can really come true in the distant future, but what is needed now is for us to take every step in front of us and every step on the ground."
