Lotu is right, where to go is indeed an important choice at this moment.

"I think the escape pod should be chased." Gu Haibo, the leader of the third group, said, "Mars can't be ignored, but Mars is there, we can monitor the situation on Mars anytime and anywhere, but the escape pod is different, we don't know where the alien species are targeting, once we lose the trace of the escape pod, it is not so easy to find them." ”

Although humans can already observe tens of billions of light-years away, that is the result of long-term exposure by orbiting telescopes, not how powerful human real-time observation methods are.

The solar system is so big, the alien species come from extraterritorial deep space, and their understanding of various celestial bodies is far above that of human beings.

"It should be Europa, right?" Xu Qing said.

Her liaison is used to it, and when she speaks, she is always very kind, even if it is a positive answer, she must say it in a tactful tone.

"The odds are high." Gu Haibo said.

In addition to the Earth, the celestial bodies in the solar system that are of the most human interest are Europa and Titan.

The former has an ice layer up to 100 kilometers thick, and there is a high probability that there will be an ocean under the ice, and there may even be protists!

It's a pity that before humans could land on Europa, alien species suddenly appeared, proving not only the existence of extraterrestrial creatures, but also the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations.

Titan, on the other hand, has a dense atmosphere that is unique among all celestial bodies, and there has always been a saying that there are likely to be ultra-low temperature organisms on Titan that are completely different from humans.

Alien species are well-informed, and it is certainly not uncommon to see this situation like Europa, plus the brainfish is an aquatic animal, so the escape pod is the most likely to fly to Europa.

Lotu also nodded in agreement, only Ou Zhanpeng was silent.

He turned Ou Zhanpeng's arm curiously: "Ou Fei, what do you want?" ”

Ou Zhanpeng didn't think about it, and as soon as he raised his arm to block Lotu's arm, the two of them swung to the sides like tumblers.

Gu Haibo hurriedly helped Luo Tu, and Xu Qing also grabbed Ou Zhanpeng's arm.

"You kid, you're quick enough!" Lotu grinned.

"Instinct, pure instinct!" Ou Zhanpeng smiled, not thinking that it was a big deal at all.

"Which beauty do you want to be, so distracted?" Xu Qing asked with a grin.

Ou Zhanpeng smiled awkwardly, rubbed the corners of his forehead and said: "I also think that the alien species Europa has the highest possibility, but there is another possibility, that is, the aliens have no purpose at all, purely to find that we are getting closer and closer, so they plan to use the escape pod to lure us away!" ”

Several people were startled at the same time, and Luo Tu's face was extremely solemn: "This possibility cannot be ruled out!" ”

"Yes, it can't be ruled out." Gu Haibo said, "The alien species have landed three times, and the escape pod is so big, how many alien species can be filled with it?" ”

There was an immediate and dramatic shift in his position.

Both judgments are reasonable, and Lotu is suddenly in a dilemma.

"Our mission is Mars, let's get to Mars first." Xu Qing said.

Ou Zhanpeng called up the top view of the solar system, focusing on zooming in on the positions of Mars and Jupiter: "You see, according to the current position, it is the window period for Mars to fly to Jupiter, so it is not accidental that the escape capsule departs at this time, if we adjust the direction immediately, it should be in time." But—"

His words turned: "If you go to Mars first, and then accelerate with the gravitational acceleration of firepower, you can also catch up with Jupiter, but our fuel is limited, and it is difficult to say after getting to Jupiter, unless the enemy stays on Jupiter, Jupiter is the end of the expedition, and it is likely to be a one-way ticket, and it is difficult to say whether there is a chance to return to Earth."

"You can't ignore Mars, you can't ignore the escape pod, or else, go to Mars first, and fly Jupiter immediately after launching the missile, it's all right?" Gu Haibo said.

"Yes, yes, but only one round of missiles, not to mention whether it can be hit, what if it is intercepted by aliens?"

Gu Haibo was anxious: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, so what do you say?" ”

Ou Zhanpeng remembered what he had just thought, and suddenly showed a struggling look.

Luo Tu was about to die: "Hey, what kind of expression do you have, one person is short of wisdom and everyone is long, if you have any ideas, you can say it, and everyone will work together to staff and staff officers." ”

Ou Zhanpeng's gaze swept over everyone's faces, whether it was the three team leaders or the others on the bridge, they all showed expectant looks.

He gritted his teeth and said: "My idea is that the battleship flies to Mars, but whether it launches missiles or not depends on the situation, but it must eject a few weapon modules, and leave one more person behind, and use the weapon modules to destroy the alien base!" ”

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned by this bold idea.

"How does this work?" Xu Qing blurted out, "Isn't this sending to death?" ”

"Why not?" Ou Zhanpeng asked rhetorically, "This is the most reasonable way." ”

"But what about people? If you stay, can you still live? ”

She is a soldier, but she is also a woman, and tends to be more emotional than male officers and soldiers. And her opinion was unanimously agreed by all the female soldiers present.

The male soldiers were more sensible, and they all thought carefully about this plan, with only perseverance and solemnity on their faces.

"Maybe you can live, maybe you can't." Ou Zhanpeng said.

"Why are you like this, isn't this sending people to death?" Xu Qing was angry and blurted out.

Ou Zhanpeng suddenly showed a very strange expression, some apprehension, some uneasiness, some hesitation and struggle, but more of an unshakable determination: "I made an idea, I stayed." ”

His voice was low, but loud enough for everyone to hear.

For a while, everyone was stunned, they didn't know what to say, they had both admiration and regret in their hearts, and some people asked themselves if they were in Ou Zhanpeng's position, would they have the same determination.

Xu Qing was stunned again, and almost didn't cry: "I, I, I didn't mean that." ”

Ou Zhanpeng spread his hands and smiled unusually freely: "It has nothing to do with you, I've already thought about it." ”

Xu Qing looked at Ou Zhanpeng blankly, unable to say a word in her heart.

"It's not like you're dead if you stay." Ou Zhanpeng said, "After blowing up the alien base, I will go into the sleeping pod and sleep all the time, and when you return, don't forget to pick me up by the way, if you are lucky, maybe you can live for another few decades, if you are unlucky, you will also take me back, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to bury it, how can you say that we are also a martyr, right?" ”

deliberately said this sentence in the most relaxed tone, but when he thought of life and death, how could his heart really be so calm?
