The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2021 Mars Inspection
"Director Fukami is going to Mars to inspect the Mariner Valley base?"

Chiba Makoto, who was passionately fighting monsters in the game world, turned his head in surprise. He didn't even care about the BOSS with little health left, and stared at Dagu. Dagu felt uneasy and couldn't help but look himself up and down to see if he had buttoned the wrong button. But then he remembered that the uniform was made of Velcro, so where did the buttons come from?

"What's wrong? Captain!"

"Uh, it's okay, it's okay!" Qianye Cheng quickly turned around and was about to calm down, but he was shocked to find that the BOSS with little health had been robbed, and his equipment was scattered all over the ground, and the other party was happily picking them up.

"."

Well, it's all right now.

Chiba Makoto calmly turned off the computer, shutting it down directly without even logging out of the game.

"Why does the Director suddenly want to go to Mars?"

Chiba Makoto turned his chair so that he was facing Daiko.

Da Gu pulled a chair over and sat next to him, saying, "It's mainly for the atmosphere transformation system. After all, it is related to whether the new field plan can proceed smoothly."

That's true. Modifying the atmosphere of Mars is the most important part of the New Frontier Project.

To put it simply, the New Frontier Project is a plan for humans to step out of the Earth and into the universe. The symbol of moving into the universe is the ability to immigrate to other planets and live there for a long time.

However, in the entire solar system, only the environment of the Earth is most suitable for human habitation. Therefore, in order for humans to survive on an alien planet for a long time without wearing space suits and oxygen supply systems, all they need to do is build a super-large sealed cover and transform the planet's environment to make it suitable for human habitation.

In the old Defense Force era, humans set their sights on finding a second home on Mars, a planet very similar to Earth in every way.

Mars' rotation period is twenty-four hours and thirty-seven minutes, which is similar to the Earth's rotation period. Mars has seasonal changes like the Earth, and Mars also has an atmosphere, so the difficulty of transformation is much smaller than other planets in the solar system.

So far, TPC has built a sealed Martian city on Mars like the Inuit igloos, and launched the Martian atmosphere transformation program several years ago.

Now that the first phase of the Mars atmosphere transformation project has reached the final stage, we really need a heavyweight leader to go to Mars to inspect the results and boost morale.

After all, most of the technicians responsible for atmospheric transformation have been on Mars for several years. What supports them to stay in the extremely harsh environment of Mars for such a long time, in addition to high salaries, is their passion for science and ideals and dreams, which seem illusory but are actually very powerful spiritual forces.

In addition to material benefits, we must also provide spiritual satisfaction.

I thought they would send a staff officer, but I didn't expect Director Fukami to go there in person.

You know, although the first phase of the Martian atmosphere transformation project has come to an end, it has only preliminarily stabilized the atmosphere and increased the thickness of the atmosphere. It is still far from enough for people to breathe outdoors. The second phase of the project to be carried out will cooperate with the photosynthesis of plants planted on the ground to transform the gas composition.

According to the plan, only after the second phase of the Mars atmosphere transformation project is completed will people be able to breathe freely when the air outside is good. At other times, they will still have to wear an air purifier, and even in bad conditions, they may have to carry oxygen supply equipment.

As for why it is so bad, we have to mention the dust storms on Mars. A lot of the surface of Mars is barren Gobi desert covered with dust, and the thin atmosphere makes the atmospheric movement quite active. The violent atmospheric movement will raise a lot of dust and form violent sandstorms.

There are many harsh areas on Mars, and sandstorms blow for one-third of every year. Some extremely severe sandstorms can have wind speeds of several hundred kilometers per hour, blowing dust to altitudes of several thousand or even tens of thousands of meters, blocking out the sky and the sun, so that no sunlight can be seen on the ground for months.

The first phase of the Martian atmosphere transformation project is to increase the thickness of the atmosphere and weaken atmospheric movement so as to slow down the speed of sandstorms and reduce their duration.

Otherwise, with this wind speed, let alone planting trees and vegetables, even the bricks and tiles on the house, if they are not firmly glued on, will be blown away by the strong wind.

Such a harsh environment is breaking the record of human survival every day and even every second. In recent years, more than one-fifth of the people who went to Mars would rather breach the contract, lose money, or even affect their future, than not cry and make a fuss and come back.

It is no exaggeration to say that in such an environment, no matter what kind of accidents happen, it is not surprising.

Director Fukami is actually going there.
Apart from anything else, the courage is absolutely overwhelming.

Worthy of the name of courage.

It is indeed courageous.

But he had the courage, but what Chiba Makoto saw was a new prelude.

In the original work, the Sphia Sphere's first large-scale attack on the Earth occurred during General Fukami's inspection of Mars, and as a result, a new Giant of Light was "born" - Ultraman Dyna!

But will the time in this world still follow that line?
It is now only the end of 2016 and not yet 2017. At this point in time, the first phase of the Mars atmosphere transformation project should still be in full swing, and Asuka Shin should still be studying and training at the Zero Flight Training School.

But in reality, the first phase of the Mars atmosphere transformation project is nearing completion, and the second phase is about to begin. This is why Director Fukami wants to go there to inspect in person, because the second phase will kick off the process of turning Mars into a second Earth, truly making Mars suitable for human habitation. There is no need to live in a sealed Martian city, but people can move freely outside like on Earth and breathe anytime and anywhere.

The most important reason for such rapid progress is the difference in equipment, and we have to thank the people of the Lower Desis galaxy for this, they have made outstanding contributions to TPC's Martian atmosphere transformation.

The people of the Daisis galaxy hid on the cosmic steel dragon Guwamu in the Kunlun Mountains, but it was equipped with a complete atmosphere transformation system. However, Chiba Makoto did not have to destroy this cosmic steel dragon due to lack of energy like the ancient version of Tiga. Instead, he preserved most of it.

In this way, TPC obtained a relatively complete atmosphere transformation system in the Space Steel Dragon, and immediately organized personnel to begin research. After fully understanding the principles, they began to imitate it.

Although due to reasons of materials and technology, the imitation instruments, in no way can be compared with the atmosphere modification system carried by the Space Iron Dragon Guwamu, but no matter how bad it is, it is still there, which is better than nothing.

Just like now, the Mars atmosphere transformation project, because of the addition of these imitation instruments, the construction period of the first phase of the project has been greatly shortened, the task has been completed ahead of schedule, and the Mars atmosphere transformation has been able to stride into the second phase of the project.

As for why Asuka Shin entered the Zero Flight Training School early and gave up the Super Victory Team and insisted on joining the Space Adventure Team, it may be because of admiration. Fans always want to be closer to their idols, and those who admire Ultraman naturally want to see Ultraman with their own eyes.

However, Chiba Cheng felt that there must be other reasons, because he had seen Asuka Shin's worried look more than once, and he was hesitant to speak to him. Chiba Cheng also asked, but Asuka Shin always laughed it off, so Chiba Cheng stopped asking, and when he thought it through and made up his mind, he would take the initiative to speak.

However, what Chiba Makoto is most concerned about is whether Director Fukami's inspection of Mars this time will provoke an attack from the Sphia sphere?
Will this be the beginning of Sphia's attack on Earth?
Will this cause the Earth to once again enter a period of frequent monster appearances?

A series of questions came to Qianye Cheng's mind, but he remained calm. He nodded and said, "We should go and take a look. After all, it is of great importance. If it succeeds on Mars, then other rocky planets in the solar system can be transformed with this system and become suitable for human habitation."

"Yes," Dagu nodded with deep feeling, and said, "It is indeed a groundbreaking invention. Its importance is no less than the Max power system."

Chiba Cheng smiled and said nothing more. The real source of this system was strictly confidential. If humans used alien things, it might lead to some criticism. After all, some people are not good at doing things, but they are professionals in finding fault with everything.

Not only the atmosphere modification system, but also a lot of scientific and technological knowledge actually come from TPC's research on equipment and even spacecraft left behind on alien planets.

For example, the cosmic network that Horii led in cooperation with PWI applied a large amount of alien technology.

No, it should not be called alien technology, because for many technologies, TPC has organized personnel to conduct in-depth analysis. Not only have they figured out the principles, they have also successfully imitated them using materials that humans have at their disposal, making them more suitable for human use and customized for the Earth.

"So, let me go and have a look too?" Chiba Makoto looked at the official letter in his hand, which invited Chiba Makoto to participate in this trip to Mars. The itinerary included the atmospheric transformation system, the newly built Mars city, the Mars botanical garden and other places, covering all aspects of Mars. If you follow this itinerary, you can basically see almost everything about Mars.

"Yeah!" Da Gu nodded. Although he also thought that the reason for inviting Chiba Makoto to go together was most likely to ensure safety. After all, the defense capabilities of Mars were not as sufficient as those of the Earth.

Only a simple air defense and ground-to-ground missile system has been established. An elite team is stationed there, and the fighter jets they use are Feiyan-1Z, so the safety is naturally not as good as that on Earth.

But no one would say this openly. After all, everyone welcomes this decision, and they will feel at ease along the way, and their families will also be relieved.

"Then let's go and have a look," Qianye Cheng nodded and said, "Who else wants to go? Let's go together. Do you want to go?"

"Me? Uh, maybe next time," Dagu scratched his head and said, "I can't leave Lina for now."

"I almost forgot to congratulate you." Chiba Makoto remembered that Lina had just found out she was pregnant today. Dagu was grinning from ear to ear. For a short period of time, she really couldn't leave the Earth.

"Hehe!" Dagu could only smile foolishly. This was one of the greatest joys in life.

I used to always see Horii showing off his kids, and now it’s finally his turn.

"Then let's call Asuka and ask him to go with us and take a look. Maybe this will be our main base in the future." Chiba Makoto leaned back in his chair.

In his opinion, for the space adventure team, going to Mars in the future would be the best. After all, Earth has the Super Victory Team and elite teams formed by various branches, and there is also the Delta Space Station and defense satellites outside the Earth.

Therefore, no matter from which aspect, the earth's defense force is sufficient, but defense requires not only a solid defense line, but also sufficient depth.

Because of the difference in angular velocity of revolution, Mars is very suitable as the front line of defense for the Earth. The second line of defense is the asteroid belt. With just some deployment, the asteroid belt can be turned into a death zone.

For example, if you place thrusters or high-explosive bombs on some rocks in the asteroid belt and suddenly crash into enemy ships when they pass by, the lethal effect can be extraordinary.

If the universe is compared to an ocean, then Mars is an island in the ocean. By defending this island, you can control a large area around it.

Whether in terms of strategic value or economic development, Mars is a must-fight place.

Therefore, if the Space Adventure Team wants to grow and develop, going to Mars is a wise choice, not to mention that this was also the original plan that TPC had for the Space Adventure Team.

However, if the Sphia Sphere appears and shows great malice towards humans, will those people still maintain their original idea and let Ultraman Tiga go to Mars?

This raises a big question mark.

"I hope everything goes well." Chiba Makoto said to himself. Right now is a turbulent time, and he really doesn't want the Sphia Sphere to get involved.

Unfortunately, things are unpredictable and often not what we want. All we can do is be prepared, embrace changes, and solve problems.

Soon, the day of departure arrived.

Going to Mars are not only Director Fukami and his entourage, but also a large number of experts, scholars, and reporters from the news media, and of course, all kinds of supplies and necessary supplies.

Although the new Max propulsion system can greatly shorten the travel time between Earth and Mars, there is still a cost. Every pound of weight on every flight to Mars or back to Earth is precious and will never be wasted.

Even though this was the director's private plane, it carried a lot of supplies, so the spacecraft took off fully loaded, slowly left the earth, and after reaching a high orbit, it turned on the new Max power system and accelerated towards Mars.

After the new Max engine was started, the stars along the way immediately moved backwards at an extremely fast speed, almost stretching into long strips, which shows how fast the speed is.

If the speed exceeds the speed of light, the stars will become long lines of light, and only after they stop will these lines suddenly disappear.

Chiba Makoto has seen many similar situations, but for many people, this is the first time.

That’s right, I’m talking about Asuka Shin.

This guy had been staring out the window since he got on board, and only when the spaceship stopped did he reluctantly look away.
