nineteen

Since the docking of the two spaceships, the beautiful AI has been in charge of piloting, and has never quarreled with Lotsly again, and rarely even communicates with him.

And Rosli and Joyner basically stay in the cabin of ML 22, enjoying the two-person world in the air. They talk about life, ideals, work, life, and are full of longing for the future, and they even forget that they are in space and there is an intelligent robot next door.

Joyna and he look at the planet in the distance, and the two explore the mysterious space.

"There's Mars."

Joyner told him that North America had built bases on Mars, with nine large biospheres, but no one had yet inhabited them, in order to verify whether these biospheres could survive on Mars for a long time, and if successful, they could be inhabited.

The nine biospheres are connected by tunnels, and in fact can be connected into one. Not only that, but the North American side is also continuing to expand, striving to build more and live better with more immigrants.

"That's Earth. That blue planet is our home, our base, where we have lived for generations. ”

Joyna spoke with affection, completely immersed in her own beautiful imagination.

Rosley listened intently, looking through the telescope.

"That doesn't seem right! Your blue planet doesn't seem to be blue, it's gray! ”

Joyna hurried to the telescope. Yes, she saw it, the spaceship was getting closer and closer to the earth, and the whole planet was shrouded in smoke, foggy, not only the mountains and rivers were gray, but even the sea that was supposed to be blue was covered in gray.

"Not good! The earth is on fire, that's smoke! ”

Joyna exclaimed.

"What the hell is going on?"

An ominous omen, flashing through Luxley's mind. There are still meteorite fragments flying outside the porthole, so many meteorites they can't get rid of, catch the big ones and let them go small, those small meteorites will still fall to the earth, bringing endless disasters to the earth.

Houses will be destroyed, forests will be on fire, islands will disappear, the sea will roar, earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis will occur, and all kinds of geological disasters can be seen everywhere. How small and helpless human beings and those animals and plants are in the face of these natural disasters.

The catastrophe of the Earth being hit by meteorites was not avoided after all. It was supposed to be a continuous stream of beautiful meteor showers, but it brought endless damage and damage to the earth.

With a heavy heart, Lotsley asks the beautiful AI to speculate on the current situation on Earth, and whether they can return safely?

The expression of the beautiful AI is complex, deep and calm, as if there is a faint sadness.

"I've observed, and the Earth is indeed on fire, almost everywhere, except for the ocean. Not just the fire and smoke, almost all the man-made structures collapsed. The ice sheets of the Arctic and the ice sheets of the Antarctic have melted, the sea level has risen, and almost all of the plains, along with the cities on the plains, are already in the water. Humanity is in the midst of annihilation. ”

Rosli and Joyner looked desperate.

"Isn't the earth finished? Was it an asteroid impact? ”

"No signs of an asteroid impact were found. The meteor showers caused by those meteorites would not have destroyed the Earth so tragically. It's not just smoke that fills the sky above the earth, it's more volcanic ash. ”

What is the reason, the beauty AI can't say clearly.

For a moment, the air was dull.

Lotsley and Joyna also rarely communicated, the previous sweetness and ambiguity were gone, and the yearning for a better life in the future was almost hopeless.

The spaceship flew as usual.

Approaching the Earth's orbit around the Sun, the spacecraft began to adjust its course, changing its course from the course to the Sun and heading towards the Earth.

The other spacecraft, due to the lack of fuel, did not enter orbit around the sun, but continued to fly towards the sun. Rochsly knew that they would melt on the way to the sun. Although there was no one on it, he also had a sense of sadness that he and Joyna would be able to return to Earth smoothly.

Lying on the porthole and looking at the earth from afar, or looking through a telescope, has become a daily habit for Labor. Ever since he discovered the changes in the earth, his heart has long flown to the earth. How he wished that the Earth would be safe and sound, so that he and Joyna could return to their homeland and live a peaceful life.

The spaceship began to orbit the Earth.

A flying object in the distance caught Lotsley's attention.

"What's that? It's like an artificial satellite. ”

Joyna said it was a space station, the solar panels were missing, the capsule was broken, and it was supposed to have been hit by a meteorite.

"So what?"

A spinning object flew by the side of the ship, and half of the solar panels were clearly visible.

"Sputnik has also suffered damage."

Joyna spoke in a deep voice.

"Sputnik?"

I don't know that the meteorites have disappeared in geometric time and space, everything has returned to calm, and the meteor shower on Earth has ended, but the harm it has brought has not stopped.

Satellites will be destroyed, and communications will inevitably be affected. He suddenly remembered that he hadn't logged in to the Dream Community since the internet outage. He hurriedly opened glasses10. To his surprise, he was able to log on to the website, which showed that some communication satellites were still working normally, and there were no problems with the servers on the ground.

He was disappointed, all the news was 20 days ago, none of them were updated, and he tried to be able to log in to the fantasy community.

"Come on, come on!"

Beckoned Joyna to her side.

"How do you usually log in to the Dream Community?"

Joyna pulls out an identical glasses10.

"Use it."

"Hurry up and go online, there is still the Internet, and you can log in to the community. What does it mean? It means that some equipment on the earth is still functioning normally, and there are still people alive, and they may be busy with disaster relief! ”

Joyna seemed to see hope too, so she logged into the Dream Community with Luxli, and they both entered through the entrance of the Asian area.

The scene in the community is still the same, but there are no tourists in sight, and the two of them look around, how much they wish to see even one person.

The shops next to the block are closed, and the Adventure Game Experience is closed. The empty street is silent and scary, and it is a place where you can have fun on weekdays, but now there is a sense of fear.

Without the company of the same kind of environment, no matter how beautiful it is, it is difficult to generate a good feeling, and even feel that this community is like an empty tomb.

I walked around the street and didn't see a single person. Rothly took Joyna and walked east down the street, where the once bustling neighborhood land sales office was equally empty.

Knowing that Rosli had bought 120 square meters of virtual land in the community, Joyna blamed him, I was afraid that the money was spent in vain, but she still accompanied Rosli to the scene to have a look.

The NFT of the bricks, tiles, cement and steel bars created by Lotsley himself has not yet been transmitted, and after it is said that after it is passed in, he hopes that Joyna will build their own house with him.

Joyna's heart was heavy, but she agreed.

Back on the street, there was still no one to be seen. As they were about to quit the fantasy community, Rosley saw the same billboard from before.

He decided to post a message and broadcast it.
