The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2043 Strange Star of Life

Humans in the TPC space and time feel like they are the chosen one and the only one.

  The development of society and the progress of science and technology are remarkable even in the history of the Olympic system. In terms of performance, it is definitely ranked in the top three, and not necessarily the third.

Not to mention other things, the Max power system alone is enough to leave most of the defense teams behind without even being able to see their taillights. And the weapons developed based on the Max power system that use Max energy - the Max cannon - are even more powerful. They are not inferior to the black technologies of mechanical deities such as the pencil bullets of the Kurt Team and the R30 of the Ultra Guard.

The first time the Max cannon was used on the experimental ship Atreides, it destroyed the huge and technologically advanced mechanical island. The latest Neomax cannon equipped on the space battleship currently being secretly built by TPC has reached the level of a star destroyer.

Using a larger new Max generator, the photons produced by the collision are intensified to a higher degree, and then fired as a weapon. Its power is so great that, theoretically, if there is enough energy, it can achieve planetary-level destruction. It does not mean blowing the planet into billions of pieces, but rather decomposing matter at the molecular level and completely annihilating it.

The power of the Max Cannon was so great that even Dr. Yaoi, the developer of the Max power system, was terrified. After using it once in the battle of Mechanical Island, he banned it and did not allow it to be used easily.

Therefore, in Chiba Makoto's opinion, Max is more like a weapon than a power system, and the Zero Drive navigation method is the power engine for mankind to move towards the universe.

This is also the reason why Chiba Makoto feels that the humans in the TPC space-time seem to be chosen by God.

Just as human beings put aside their disputes, stopped internal friction, concentrated their efforts on development, and began to move out of the earth and into the universe, they had the Zero drive for long-distance navigation and the Max power system for fighting invaders from outside the earth.

Human beings no longer have to spend four days to reach the moon and one or two hundred days to reach Mars. Instead, they can reach the moon and Mars in just 20 to 30 minutes and three to four hours.

We set out to Mars to see the Mariner Valley in the morning and return home for dinner in the evening.

To see how great the impact of the Max power system is on humanity, just look at the comparison between the Carlo Base and the Mariner Valley Base.

The construction of the Carlo Base began in 1982. At that time, in order to extract the helium-3 element rich in the lunar soil, several rockets were launched in succession to build a mining base. Then it gradually developed into a camp. In the new century, based on the mining camp, it was expanded into the Carlo Base.

In other words, it took more than 20 years for the Carlo base to be finally built. Although there are various reasons for this, we cannot ignore the high difficulty of building a lunar base, the long time span and the huge amount of financial resources consumed.

The Mariner Valley Base is far away on Mars, hundreds of times farther away from the Earth than the Moon. It has only taken ten years from the initial exploration to now, and it has been built to its current scale.

There is no need to look at how many complex factors are involved here. Just by looking at this simple comparison of numbers, you can see how much convenience the Max propulsion system has brought to the construction of human interstellar bases, how much time it has reduced, and how much cost it has saved.

If the traditional rocket is compared to a unicycle, then the transport ship equipped with the Max power system is a semi-trailer. The efficiency of the two can be said to be one in heaven and one in hell, and there is no comparison at all.

Max is such an excellent power system, but TPC also has a Zero drive method that is faster than the Max power system.

This is really beyond others. While humans in normal time and space are still struggling to get by on electric scooters, TPC is driving a sports car at full speed. What's even more outrageous is that the sports car is not the only one he has, he also has a private jet.

This is really a typical example of comparing people to others and throwing away goods when compared to others.

Not to mention the Max propulsion system and the faster Zero drive navigation method, even the launch vehicles powered by high-purity energy that TPC had long eliminated are black technologies that are out of reach for humans in ordinary time and space who still use chemical fuels as energy. But humans in TPC time and space have not only used them for decades, they also eliminated them early and threw them into museums for people to visit.

While humans in ordinary time and space are still working hard to build space stations in the same way as ants moving house, TPCs here are developing the solar system on a large scale. The gap is extremely large.

It would be fine if it were just these, and it can be said that it is the crystallization of human wisdom and the result of hard work, but when something is needed, the corresponding thing will appear.

For example, when TPC was formulating the Mars development plan, because the Martian atmosphere was too thin and required a long period of "inflation" to make it suitable for human habitation, the people of the Daisis galaxy "sent" the cosmic steel dragon Guwamu equipped with an atmosphere transformation device, allowing humans to directly obtain mature and advanced products, and imitate them by copying them, which greatly accelerated the Mars atmosphere transformation plan.

And there are more than one such cases.

For example, now that humans have stepped beyond Mars and are heading farther away from the sun, what needs to be transformed is not only the atmosphere, but also enough light and heat.

TPC's plan is to build an artificial sun, but the cost of construction and maintenance is very high because an artificial sun is needed in every place.

Then a planet appeared in the Kuiper Belt, ignoring the surrounding cold and darkness and with a vibrant surface. If the images of the probe are real, either this planet emits light and heat on its own, or it has corresponding equipment.

Chiba Makoto tends to believe the latter. A planet that can emit light and heat on its own must be related to stars. However, none of the series of products of stars, whether white dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, etc., have a suitable environment. They are all extremely harsh environments. Not to mention growing trees, not even grass can grow.

In other words, there is a high probability that this planet has been artificially modified so that it can maintain temperature and brightness even when it is far away from the star. It is equivalent to a large incubator, or a cosmic version of Noah's Ark.

Following this line of thought, it is easy to imagine that to go to such great lengths to transform a planet, it must be a brilliant civilization with advanced technology and a prosperous society, to transform a celestial body slightly smaller than the moon into a habitable place.

Either for colonization, like the current TPC, which is systematically advancing the New Frontier Project, which includes transforming suitable satellites to make them habitable for humans;

Either for long-distance exploration, after all, compared to a spaceship with limited space, any planet is more spacious and rich in resources;

Or they can wander. Take humans for example. If humans can no longer stay on Earth, then for the continuation of all mankind, the best option is not to build a spaceship, but to transform the nearby moon into a habitable place. Then, use the moon, which is smaller, lighter, and easier to push than the Earth, as an oversized spaceship to fly into the universe and find a new home.

Therefore, there is a high possibility that there exists an extremely large, technologically advanced, and mature ecological transformation and maintenance system on this planet, which can definitely be of great help to TPC. Perhaps it can be directly transplanted to the moon and similar habitable small planets such as Ganymede without much effort. The habitable area for humans will be greatly expanded at once.

If humans who can get whatever they need are not considered the chosen ones, then what are the chosen ones?

"Captain Chiba, we are beginning to enter the atmosphere."

Yumimura Ryo's voice came out from the speaker, shocking the two people who had been waiting for a long time with nothing to do.

"finally reached."

Asuka Xin said with emotion that if it weren't for the constraints of the seat belt and the space, he would have stretched out his body.

The planet had expanded to fill the field of vision. With the naked eye, I could see the endless green jungle on the ground, the piles of white clouds floating in the sky, and what looked like waves of the sea in the distance.

"Oh my god, it's actually true." Asuka Shin stared at the scenery outside and below. It can't be said that it is exactly the same as the forest on Earth, but there is no difference. There was also the sudden appearance of light around. It was obviously dark before entering the atmosphere, but suddenly it lit up, as if going from a dark outside the house to a bright room. However, he looked around and couldn't find the 'light bulb'.

All this felt extremely novel to Asuka Shin, who stared with wide eyes and kept staring.

Qianye Cheng only glanced around and said, "Go to the place where the detector lost contact."

"understand!"

"Also. Be prepared for battle."

"Yes!" Yumimura Ryo immediately released the restrictions on the weapon system, allowing the weapon systems of the three fighter jets to be ready for launch. With just a flick of his finger, he could launch a powerful combination technique powered by Max - Tornado Thunder.

Although this place looks beautiful, friends who have traveled to the mountains and seas know that the more colorful and beautiful something is, the more dangerous it is, especially mushrooms, the more beautiful they are, the more poisonous they are.

In particular, this may be the 'Noah's Ark' of a certain race, on which a large number of defense systems and counterattack weapons must be deployed. Although no sound has been heard or any abnormality has been seen so far, it is very likely that it has been destroyed for various reasons during its long journey in the universe. But if there is still an intelligent program running, and it suddenly launches a missile at you, who can bear it?

Even though there is no Victory Falcon, there is still a way to go back. After all, there is only one ordinary person here. But the Victory Falcon belongs to the Space Adventure Team, so one should take good care of his property.

Therefore, Chiba Makoto asked Yumimura Ryo to prepare for battle and be ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

It just descended carefully all the way, and the Victory Eagle changed from diving to parallel flight, but nothing happened.

"Everything is normal with the detector, and no life signs were found." Although Asuka Xin was jumpy, his professional ability was still good, and he was doing his job conscientiously all the way.

During the flight, no energy reaction or life reaction was found. The forest was full of vitality, but also lifeless.

Two completely different words, yet they can be used to describe the same forest.

"Could it be that there was a mass extinction on this planet, but the environmental maintenance system is still working, so plants are sprouting again?"

As Chiba Makoto spoke, he imagined a long work that was enough to be made into an epic documentary.

“Maybe they migrated?”

Asuka Shin also started to think a lot.

"Uh, will there always be only plants?"

Yumimura Ryoya was also brought in to join the brainstorming session.

In the end, the three Zhuge Liangs could not come up with any very reasonable explanation and could only attribute it to the magic of the universe.

The brainstorming session ended not because of a lack of imagination, but because we were almost reaching the place where the probe had lost contact, while the forest below had continued to grow lush and green, giving people the feeling that the planet was covered with trees.

There was only a gap in front, but it was not the end. Instead, it was a road full of broken leaves and branches. Many trees, as thick as buckets and requiring several people to hug, were broken in half and fell to the ground. At the end of the road was a tilted spaceship.

"It's Lomus Three!"

Yumimura Ryo recognized the overturned spaceship on the ground at a glance. It was the long-missing Lomus III.

“Finally found it.”

Asuka Shinko was so happy. He had spent so much effort looking for this spaceship and now he finally found it.

The Victory Condor began to slow down and lower its altitude. It seemed to have heard some noise. A few black spots came out of the overturned spacecraft, then jumped and waved.

"It's the crew of the Lomus III." This time it was Asuka Shin who answered first.

"Yes, it's Shinjo and the others." Chiba Makoto has already seen that the black spots on the ground are Shinjo and the others. They can still jump, there are quite a few crew members, and there is no blood on their clothes. It is obvious that they are not seriously injured.

But how could they appear here? And judging from the traces on the ground, it was obvious that the Lomus III did not land normally but was forced to land.

Something must have happened in the meantime, causing the Lomus III to not only deviate from its normal orbit by more than 10 billion kilometers, but also be unable to continue sailing, and was forced to land here.

Yumimura Ryo was still descending, and the people on the ground were extremely excited. They were waving their hands and cheering.

"They are so excited to see us. They can finally go home." Asuka Shin guessed, then nodded and said, "Of course they are. If we hadn't come, they wouldn't know when they can go back."

"Wait a minute, Captain, I don't think we can carry all these people."

Asuka Shin discovered a serious problem, that is, there were not enough seats in the Victory Eagle.

"Can't we just call someone over?"

Chiba Makoto was speechless at Asuka Shin's rigid thinking.

"Yes, it can shake people." Asuka Xin said with sudden realization, and then there was a loud 'bang', his head jerked to the left, and then there was a 'woohoo' alarm sound, and the world began to spin.

The Victory Eagle was falling, and it was falling directly because it had lost its balance, like a kite with a broken string, and it plunged headfirst.
