Chapter 4 Mission Statement

Ten hours later, the new Jackdaw appeared in normal cosmic space.

When leaving hyperspace, all the members of the spaceship ran to the bridge for some reason, even Nimeow, who had claimed that she was going to rot in the computer room.

Wang Chao sat on the Iron Throne, thinking that looking down would give him a full sense of accomplishment, but he found that he was thinking too much.

Even if they are all beauties, they can't bring much sense of accomplishment.

He couldn't help but think of playing the old game "The Elder Scrolls 5", playing hundreds of mods, and looking at the hordes of harems after entering the game, full of satisfaction.

Helena found Wang Chao's contrasting expression and teased: "Why, there are too few people to make you, the emperor, not happy?" ”

Wang Chao: "Your superpowers, really can't read minds?" It's scary to say what I think so accurately, isn't it? ”

Helena sighed: "I'm a professor of psychology, and I have a qualification to practice as a psychiatrist!" I wouldn't have been able to read such a simple expression, and I would have died of shame. ”

Gale shouted, "Father-in-law has made Helena shy!" ”

"It's a shame! And that's just a hypothesis, assumption understand? ”

Gale deliberately made the two pupils look in different directions, pretending to be mentally retarded: "I don't understand, I only heard shame!" Shame on you! ”

Helena shook her head: "Forget it, my question." I had already lost the moment I was in Liling. ”

Wang Chao immediately remembered Guo Degang's joke, and immediately came over: "Yes, it's like I told rocket experts that this rocket can't use ordinary coal, and it has to be washed with water." The experts only have to look at me, and I lose. ”

Lily laughed.

It seems that she hasn't heard Guo Degang's jokes - it's normal, at the end of this year, these are all antiques, and it is estimated that only enthusiasts will hear about it.

Ni Meow: "You just steal the jokes of the ancients to pick up girls?" ”

Wang Chao spread his hands: "It's been more than 70 years, and there is no copyright in the field of public circulation." ”

Nia: "Leave that alone, now that our approach has changed...... Do we still mine? ”

"Helium three always has to be added," Wang Chao replied, "although the survey data we got did not mention helium three, but generally the sun of this age will always have helium three." ”

As long as there are planets rich in hydrogen, a large amount of helium-3 will always be produced under the constant irradiation of cosmic rays.

Therefore, the key is to find a planet that has a lot of hydrogen and at the same time does not have a strong magnetic field and atmosphere protection.

Generally, there will be some asteroids in a galaxy that meet this requirement and contain a large amount of helium-three, but the energy required to detect the asteroid belt is too much.

Even with today's remote sensing technology, it doesn't take too long to explore all the planets.

After all, ten or twenty large planets in a galaxy are already a lot, and if you count various moons, there are only forty or fifty.

With modern remote sensing technology, a planetary scan can grasp the basic situation in a few days, if there are animals and plants, it may take more time to survey, and a planet without animals and plants can basically grasp the situation in a week.

The problem is, asteroids.

Like the cradle of human beings, the solar system, there are millions of asteroids, and the key is that these asteroids are also distributed in the vast universe.

Even if it only takes a few seconds to scan an asteroid, plus the time it takes to fly by, it's not the same thing.

In this era, human beings have a very high ability to travel at sub-light speeds, and they can carry out interstellar colonization across thousands of light years, which is the technology that ignites the use of gravity engines to tear apart space.

Using the gravity engine to make a hyperspace jump in a star system is not worth the cost - while the distance of the jump can save some energy, there is no way to save the huge amount of energy required to tear through conventional space and send the ship into hyperspace.

Therefore, exploring the asteroid belt has become a very thankless task, even if it is the core colony of mankind, there are a large number of asteroids that are not surveyed, but only survey a part of the asteroids when specific industrial raw materials are needed, and then push the engines that meet the requirements to the vicinity of the factory area.

In fact, many of the core human colonies that have been established for less than a century have not even begun to use the resources on the asteroids because the resources on the large planets have not yet been exploited.

It is precisely because of this that Wang Chao is sure that he can obtain helium-three in this galaxy - the exploration data does not say that there is helium-three in this galaxy, which means that there are no helium-three in the asteroids and moons, and there must be on the asteroids, but they need to be found.

Gale: "You're saying we're going to spend time exploring for asteroids?" Do you know how long it takes? ”

Wang Chao spread his hands: "Isn't this just right?" Let's disappear for a while to cool everyone down. ”

Helena: "After we disappear, they will speculate about what we are doing, and maybe they will be able to improve the character of Organization X on their own." ”

Nimeth complained, "Will it go so well? I think someone will soon think that we were wrecked in the hyperspace jump, after all, we jumped deep in the planetary gravity well. Wrecking is common in this situation. ”

Helena shrugged: "Of course there will be such a statement. But when we do, that argument will be self-defeating, and then people will believe other speculations even more. For example, I believe we went to the base of Organization X to study. We don't even have to do any propaganda, we don't have to release any information. ”

Nimeow: "That's good. ”

Paige: "Well, excuse me, according to telemetry, there are small settlements on the planet ahead of us, and I've also found man-made objects in orbit around the planet. ”

Nia was stunned: "I'm still wondering how there are such faint gravitational waves, it turns out to be satellites and space stations." But this space station is too small. ”

There was a sudden silence on the bridge.

After a second, Nimeow asked, "What do you say now?" ”

Nia: "We shouldn't have been found this time. The ship's gravity engine has a low infrared signature when exiting hyperspace. ”

Nimeow: "Don't be stupid, even if you can't spot us, there will still be flashes when you leave hyperspace, unless this settlement and space station are all blind, otherwise you will see it." ”

Helena added: "And our ship is a bit big, will it really be completely impossible to find out?" ”

Wang Chao: "Our shell should be painted with low visibility, and we may not be able to see us without infrared imaging in a dark cosmic background." ”

Helena: "But when we showed up in the colony of St. Paul's a hundred years ago, people immediately spotted us. ”

Nia: "Maybe when we were swept by the turbulence, we emitted a lot of heat. It may also be that it is a colony of 100,000 people after all, and has a complete system of survey telescopes.

"But the colony we telegraphed has a population of about 1,000 at most. It was also a small space station with one-fiftieth of our tonnage. ”

Wang Chao frowned: "Is it such a small space station?" ”

He has traveled to the present, and he is used to large space stations, whether it is the Doyle space station, or Apollodorus, or the smaller space station where Nimeow lives, all of which are large space stations with a weight of more than one million tons and a population of tens of thousands.

As a result, a small space station has now appeared only one-fiftieth of the tonnage of its own new ship.

To use the 21st century things that Wang Chao is familiar with, the hundreds of thousands of tons of oil tankers and the reef stilt houses we built on the Xisha reef back then - not very the islands that nature has grown up on its own.

Page displayed the observed space station on a large screen - the bridge used now, the entire canopy is a display, and naturally a part of it can be used to enlarge a space station.

Gale: "This station...... Looks pretty advanced. ”

Page replied: "I found the design of the external module of the space station, which was supposed to be a design from 50 years ago, and it was much more advanced than the one we had seen in the colony called São Paulo. ”

Wang Chao: "You can't say that, if we were really thrown into the past by the turbulence of time before, maybe it was the most advanced style of others." ”

Nimeow: "So this colony didn't contact us at all. I don't know if I really didn't find us. ”

Nia gestured with a V: "It seems that my design has achieved its purpose, such a large ship can hide its body, and a smaller spy ship is no problem." ”

Wang Chao: "If that's the case, you can't change the shape of the cosmic war." ”

Now because this spacecraft leaves hyperspace and is equivalent to shouting at the surrounding universe with a loudspeaker, there is basically no sneak attack in space warfare.

The attacking side has all the cars, horses and artillery in place, and fights in a serious manner.

A sneak attack is also a sneak attack by the defenders, and the starship, which has silently shut off most of its energy by radio, "floats" around the attacking fleet and suddenly attacks.

Now that the attacker can also sneak attack, there are more tactics.

Nimeow: "Let's not talk about such a distant thing as changing the form of cosmic warfare, how do you say it now?" ”

Helena, who had been thinking about it, said, "We may be able to try brainwashing on these people. ”

Gale: "Oh, Dr. Helena has come up with her own evil plan! ”

Wang Chao ignored the gale, and asked with a focused face: "How to operate?" ”

Helena: "First of all, we have to figure out if there is a quantum entanglement communicator here, and if there is no communicator, we can start operating. ”

If there were no quantum entanglement communicators, they would be able to control all of the colony's gravity engines and jam their communication with the outside world.

Even if someone were to radio into space, it would take years for the radio waves to be picked up by the other colonies.

In this way, it is possible to conduct closed experiments here, and no matter what the results are, they will not be exposed quickly.

Wang Chao: "Do you have a way to deceive the intelligence?" ”

Helena shook her head: "I don't really have that ability. ”

Lily: "You've just been brainwashed. ”

"I mean, with my ability and yours, plus a customized propaganda plan, to achieve a similar effect of brainwashing!" Helena explained, "My ability is not as unreasonable as yours, and I can't do it directly by brainwashing." ”

Gale: "Professor Helena, who killed a ship of the Guiyi Sect with a single word, said. ”

Wang Chao: "Gale, don't interrupt." ”

"Obey the Father." Gale immediately shut up.

Although her expression was still funny, she really didn't interrupt again.

Wang Chao: "Helena has no choice...... Ni Meow, the task of confirming whether the other party has quantum entanglement communication is left to you. ”

Nimeow: "I did catch the communication, but it was difficult to hack directly into their local network. ”

Wang Chao: "Think of a way." ”

"Don't talk like I'm going to find a way to think about it! But...... I do have a way this time. I discovered the other party's communications satellites. ”

Nimeow displayed the position of the communications satellite and the location of the space station in a huge holographic projector on the bridge.

Nimeow: "If we quietly dock to this satellite, I mean this satellite marked as Alpha, the space station side should not be able to see us. Blocked by the planet. ”

Wang Chao: "This satellite is for the purpose of establishing a global communication network?" ”

Nimeow: "To build a ground positioning system." Apparently there are smaller settlements on the ground in addition to the large colonies we have found. It's hard to imagine that humans are evenly sprinkled on this planet. ”

Wang Chao: "No problem, immediately rely on the past to invade this satellite, what's next?" ”

Ni Meow: "After establishing an access point, I can access the local network, and then it will naturally be a hacker, invading the local server as a broiler, and releasing data crawlers to crawl everywhere." However, considering that the quantum entanglement communicator may be offline, we need to confirm further. ”

Wang Chao: "How do you confirm?" ”

Nimeow: "I'll hack the planetary alert system on the other side, you guys find a way to scratch your tongue, it's best to kidnap the most powerful person here, and confirm whether there is an offline quantum entanglement communicator." ”

Nimeth paused and added, "But I personally don't think this kind of rural colony will probably have such high-end things." But just in case. ”

Helena: "Good. Then let's act like this, first take Nimeow in, control the network, and then let me land quietly. We don't even have to arrest the local dignitaries, and if I go up, we'll probably be able to dig up most of the secrets — and no one notices me. ”

Wang Chao snapped his fingers: "That's great." ”

Helena looked at Nimeow, "However, I may encounter some hackers who need to be supported. ”

Nimeow: "You can find any computer that can be connected to the Internet, and you can get hacker support." ”

Helena: "That's great. ”

Wang Chao: "Then we will immediately set the route, and the target is this alpha satellite." ”

Nimeow: "Wait a minute, this ship is still too big, let's go in a small boat." That's why I brought it here. ”

Wang Chao: "The small boat has not been treated with low visualization, and the heat dissipation has not been improved, so it is not possible that the big ship is not hidden." ”

Nia: "Then use the dinghy, this science ship has a lot of dinghy that can be used for landing missions. ”

Ahhhh Failing to press the line on the first day of the new year is not a good sign!
