Chapter 14: Why don't you go and drive a space battleship?
Xiao Liu slowly got off the bus with the crowd from the electric bus, and his heart was already surging!
He is about to step into the legendary Base Zero, which is already a legend in the Chinese scientific community!
As Lu Yu's number one black and red fan on Earth, even after nearly five years, he still firmly remembers the UP who claimed to have built a space jumping machine.
has even followed Lu Yu's footsteps all the way for five years, and now he will finally step into Base Zero and become one of the glorious researchers!
However, Xiao Liu is still on the periphery of Base Zero, and most of the young people like him are seen getting off several buses.
That's right, now you can't be considered middle-aged in your 30s.
The predictable increase in average life expectancy has allowed Xiao Liu to return to the ranks of young people internally.
It seems that there are a lot of people today?
He looked around the line and silently made a judgment.
"Good!"
"All of them!"
"Originally, today is the first day you have come to the base, and it is supposed to take you to recognize the way and walk around, but now there is an urgent project that requires your cooperation."
Leading the way for these new researchers were a few instructors, and Base Zero was under militarized management on the periphery, and they even had to go through a period of military training before they officially joined.
They followed the instructors to a large hall where a group of people were already watching the virtual battle in front of the large cylindrical glass, and on the white cylindrical glass was a real-time holographic projection of the simulated battle of the red and blue space fleet.
This cylindrical glass with a radius of about five meters is actually a display screen, and some instructors keep walking back and forth around the cylindrical glass in order to seek a better view of the cylindrical glass.
This cylindrical glass with a very sci-fi sense has made many researchers look sideways.
With the defeat of one side, a droplet-shaped virtual pod suddenly popped up on one side of the cylindrical glass, and the battle on the display screen also came to an end.
"Okay, you're in front of you with a virtual reality device."
"Now we need your help in debugging, and of course if you want to try your hand at piloting a spaceship, we're more than welcome!"
This group of new researchers is generally young, and no one will refuse to try this kind of novelty, and Xiao Liu is lucky to get the opportunity to experience it first.
Wearing a virtual helmet, he reclined in a comfortable droplet virtual pod as if he were in a lucid dream.
In front of me are two space-warships nearly a kilometer long in orbit around the moon, maintaining a speed slightly below the second cosmic velocity, conducting a simulated space battle in the orbit of the edge of the earth.
Xiao Liu also worked as a debugger of virtual reality technology internally, but at that time, the virtual scene was still very rough, not at all like it is now as if he was really driving a space battleship.
From the viewfinder on his own battleship, he could see three green high-energy beams from the three side beam cannons of the opponent's ship. The three beams were aimed at his engines in the bow, hull, and stern.
The distance between the two battleships was only 0.05 light seconds, and there was no time to react, and in the blink of an eye, the thick high-energy beam came in front of their battleship. It slammed into the entire spaceship, which was as colorful as a brilliant aurora.
From the external viewfinder, three green high-energy beams of light burst into dozens of smaller beams after hitting the electromagnetic shield, and then these beams were slightly refracted and disappeared into deep space. The electromagnetic shield that enveloped the ship was only slightly dimmed, and then regained its previous splendor after sufficient energy replenishment.
"The low-power salvo of the beam cannon consumes about 1/10,000th of the energy reserve of the electromagnetic shield, and if you extrapolate from this, you can get ........."
"Are the beginner tutorials so cool?"
Xiao Liu looked at the data on the display screen and tried to manipulate the control interface of the spaceship, as simple as putting his hand in a glove, he controlled the spaceship at an unexpected speed.
Sometimes, human beings may not be able to discover their hidden talents for the rest of their lives, but when it is stimulated, the feeling of domination of a certain field is especially strong.
Even if it was the first time to get started, Xiao Liu had already consciously begun to make various attempts to operate various weapons and engines.
He took the initiative to slow down the battleship, and was pulled back a little distance by the earth's gravity. When the two ships were 0.01 light-seconds apart, the enemy battleship's orbit was already directly above him, and a dense array of nuclear missiles were launched from the oblate hull of the Xiaoliu battleship.
The speed of a missile cannot be compared to that of a high-energy beam, and 0.01 light seconds is a distance of almost 3,000 kilometers, and it takes about a minute for a missile to hit an opponent after launch.
The speed of conventional missiles in space warfare is so slow that enemy ships suddenly prop up small beams like beam hedgehogs, and then shoot them in all directions to block missile attacks.
A burst of grand fire broke out between the two warships, like fireworks in space, and the simulation of various space weapons made the people who saw this shocking scene for the first time outside the field couldn't take their eyes off it.
Somewhere, Professor Han was watching the lively scene with great interest.
Professor Mao happened to walk to the side with a coffee and asked curiously, "It's rare to see you so happy recently, what good things have happened?" ”
Professor Han sighed and said, "You know, I study psychology, and I have always been vaguely worried about a certain situation. ”
"Only when we need each other can we form a stable relationship between people and between people and organizations."
"But after Lu Yu left the Horned Star System, he has already left the stage of surviving in the universe, and the relationship with the base at the beginning is no longer applicable, but we have not established a new stable relationship since then."
"The reason for this is that he is progressing too fast, and those of us who are humans on the Blue Star are making too slow progress, and some of us can't keep up with his pace."
Professor Han pointed to the simulated battle below: "But the virtual reality technology in front of us provides another possibility, Lu Yu's request to let us drive the zombie spaceship on our behalf may be just a whim, but I pondered carefully for a long time, and suddenly found that this opportunity will be an important opportunity for us to re-establish a relationship between mutual needs!" ”
"Lao Mao, have you heard of the [Fourth Heavenly Calamity]?"
"Even if it's a trick, we should try to get into the stars."
............
The battle was finally over, and Xiao Liu unexpectedly passed the novice tutorial in the first battle, and when he came out of the cockpit, a large group of instructors immediately surrounded him.
"Are you really piloting a spaceship for the first time? Why can you directly achieve the deep space gyro? ”
"How did you know that the enemy ship was behind the wreckage?"
Xiao Liu thought to himself, isn't it just a game, why are you excited? Then he saw Professor Mao walking through the crowd with a smile on his face.
"Hello Director Mao!"
Professor Mao still smiled and responded, "Oh! You are Xiao Liu of the Fifth Institute of Aerospace, right? ”
"Yes, yes, I ...... before"
Before he could finish speaking, he heard Professor Mao say, "Xiao Liu! Why don't you do scientific research for the time being? ”
Xiao Liu's eyes widened for a while, thinking that he had done something wrong, and then he heard Professor Mao continue sincerely: "You go and learn to drive a space battleship first!" ”
??
Now if you want to engage in scientific research, do you have to take the spacecraft driver's license first?
Base Zero is really terrifying!
