Black technology: starting with space jump machine

The three spacecraft are slowly decelerating from 50% of the speed of light. Interstellar travel not only tests the strength of civilization, but also deceleration is a severe test.

Fortunately, human civilization has withstood the test. Now this small fleet is approaching the forward base. Before that, the speed must be controlled to a safe speed range.

Otherwise, the forward base is responsible for the important mission of human deep space today, and no accidents can affect the safety of the base.

However, during the deceleration, the fleet is also not idle.

Everyone in the nutrition cabin seems to be in hibernation, but in fact they are conducting actual combat exercises through virtual reality.

A large number of spherical drones are continuously ejected from the spacecraft, and they are controlled by officers to conduct various actual combat simulations.

"After releasing the smoke, Team A1 will let the stand-ins explode immediately, and then turn off the engines to maintain radio silence for 10 minutes. Although this will lose the connection with us, it can also achieve the effect of confusing the blue army."

"What Team A2 needs to do is to withstand three times the enemy's firepower and lead them to the designated airspace within ten minutes, waiting for Team A1 to use a favorable shooting angle to inflict heavy damage on the blue army."

"Yes! Execute Plan C."

As the commander of the team, Yang Weili issued instructions again and again, and finally eliminated the drones of the other two spacecraft in the actual combat simulation.

Those spherical drones that were destroyed in the electronic sense will return to the spacecraft on their own, otherwise after the system reports death, they will be directly thrown off by the spacecraft without energy supply and become a piece of cold and lonely space garbage.

"The record of the 37th deep space space fighter actual combat training is complete."

As the virtual reality announced that Yang Weili's team won, the command rights of all officers were agreed to be taken back by AI.

Those who are willing to stay and review the game may naturally apply for permission, and those who are unwilling can also switch to other virtual scenes.

This small fleet can only connect to the local area network, but there are definitely a lot of virtual reality games, learning materials, and video music.

After all, in the past ten days, they can only experience it in virtual reality. In reality, because acceleration and deceleration will bring terrible loads to the body, they can only stay in the nutrition cabin most of the time, which is jokingly called [Deep Sea Mode] by everyone

"This time is the closest time for me to failure. I didn't expect that facing only twice as many enemies, the tactical effect would drop so much?"

"This is just facing simulated enemies who are also human. If it is... aliens, their thinking and combat habits are completely different. When I am a commander, I have to consider more complicated things. For..."

Yang Weili is seriously reviewing and reflecting.

This batch of trained officers originally focused on training elites for space operations. After a selection with an astonishing elimination rate, only 200 were left. All of them can be said to be the elite among the elite. It is incredible that Yang Weili can maintain an undefeated record of nearly 64 actual combat trainings.

"Everyone's improvement is obvious, but I haven't made any progress for a long time."

Yang Weili, who has already scored a full score of 100, is always thinking about breaking through the limit to 101 points. This difficulty is no less difficult than going from 0 to 1, from nothing to something! In comparison, the improvement of others is the progress that normal people should have.

Not to mention a genius commander who is still reflecting on why he is stagnant. At this time, the external armor of the three spacecraft has become bumpy due to actual combat training, and it has completely lost the domineering and majestic power when it set off from the space city.

On the contrary, it looks like a plain patrol spacecraft that has served between the earth and the moon for many years.

[Captain's order: Penglai will enter the final deceleration stage in half an hour. Please make corresponding preparations for all personnel on board]

Yang Weili, who had just finished the battle review, heard the broadcast. Although he now thought of it in a dream, all the experiences were extremely real, which made him have to sigh at the power of virtual reality technology.

Just when Yang Weili wanted to close his eyes and rest, new information popped up again.

Bona: "How about we play games online with the Taishan later?"

Yang Weili "Still playing? It's almost 2:30 in the time zone where the space elevator is located."

Bona: "It's so late? No wonder I'm a little tired! Well. How about playing a game?"

Yang Weili didn't care about this guy who was going to have a day off tomorrow. He set the virtual reality personal interface to do not disturb mode, so that no one could disturb him except for urgent matters.

He switched the background to the sea of ​​stars, and the whole thing seemed to be suspended in this endless sea of ​​stars.

The real body was in the nutrition cabin, and the self-consciousness could not help but wander among the endless stars. Gravity could no longer restrain the free soul at this moment.

Perhaps it was because Yang Weili's spirit was still a little excited because he had just experienced a evenly matched battle. Normally, he would fall asleep naturally soon when floating in such a medium.

The stars seemed to be unable to soothe his slowly restless mood tonight.

Yang Weili exhaled lightly, and then opened the personal interface again.

"Connect to host."

[Major Yang, how can I help you? ]

"Connect to external viewfinder, direction is asteroid belt."

[Completed, will be displayed in your personal interface in five seconds. ]

The sea of ​​stars in front of me suddenly changed, thousands of asteroids of different sizes appeared in front of me.

In the viewfinder, I can see them spreading from the deep space of the universe, drawing an arc in front of Penglai, and then disappearing into the depths of space.

They are remnants of the distant solar system's formation - the asteroid belt between the orbits of Jupiter and Mars. This ring around the solar system contains inexhaustible reserves of minerals and elements that are already scarce or over-exploited on Earth.

After the moon, this is the next promised land flowing with milk and honey in the human space industry!

The current destination of their fleet, the A1 mining area of ​​the asteroid belt, is an asteroid belt mining area built with the dwarf planet Ceres as the core area and radiating to the left and right for nearly 100,000 kilometers.

It is the highest achievement of the current integration of human science and technology - the forward base!

After more than ten days of sailing, the three spaceships are finally arriving here.

Next, they will rest for a while before heading towards more distant deep space.

The Great Wall Base, which is still under construction, is waiting for them, and the Oort Nebula is also waiting for them.

At this moment, Yang Weili didn't want to think too much. He just wanted to appreciate the peak of human technology.

In this area that has become an asteroid mining area, a large number of small spacecraft and robots are assigned to different asteroids according to different functional categories to start their own work.

They first carried out the construction of collection bases. These collection bases will be responsible for the supply of raw materials for all future construction projects of the forward base.

After the collection base, there is the preliminary forging factory.

These factories will initially process the minerals collected from the collection base for later use.

After the forging factory, there is the construction of a robot casting factory and various parts production factories. Due to spacecraft tonnage and volume limitations, it is impossible to carry too many robots on a transport spacecraft. Therefore, the construction of robot casting factories on important asteroids is also very necessary.

Parts factories include various precision instrument foundries, etc.

In addition to the production of these raw materials, the core is the huge space dock next to Ceres. It is responsible for the construction of new spacecraft, turning a series of materials into tools for mankind to extend into deep space.

The production speed of spaceships in this shipyard has far exceeded that of Lagrange Space City. This is the productivity that truly represents the pinnacle of human technology.

Under the control of the huge computing power provided by quantum computers, all complicated things were carried out in an orderly manner, allowing Yang Weili to see the beauty of the orderly space industry.

The collection base continuously outputs nutrients and supplies them to various factories. The gathering place at the production end of the asteroid has become the heart of the entire space industry. These hearts are outputting a large amount of fresh labor every moment to replenish various organs.

These nutrients continue to gather, and a brand new spacecraft will soon be manufactured and set off into deep space!

Of course... none of these spaceships are as huge in tonnage and volume as the three battleships. Most of them are transport spacecraft, assisting in transporting materials from the asteroid belt to the Great Wall base ahead.

At this moment, Yang Weili couldn't help but stretch his field of vision.

When the entire solar system was under his overlook, a magnificent picture appeared in front of him.

Starting from Blue Star, the light of the spacecraft engine that is constantly shuttled back and forth is like a straight line connecting Blue Star and the forward base.

The forward base also has such a light path connected by spaceships, connecting the Great Wall Base in deep space.

Each of their distances is hundreds of times longer than the former Silk Road, and every location they connect is tens of millions of times longer than the distance traveled around the world.

Compared with the distances in the stars, all previous long-distance explorations by humans pale in comparison.

At this moment, Yang Weili felt a burst of pride in his heart.

Because he will represent mankind towards the Oort Nebula, a mysterious place that mankind has not yet set foot in.

Although it may become a battlefield between two civilizations in the future, although it may become the burial place of many human beings in the future, at this moment it is a place that will be conquered by humans. Yang Weili can participate in such an action and once again feel Deeply proud.

With such emotions, looking at the forward base in front of me, my admiration can no longer be contained.

"I heard that the initial construction of this base was basically completed by a group of military officers and scientists who signed up voluntarily."

"But now, they go to the Great Wall Base without hesitation."

"...With such a forerunner, human civilization is destined to shine in the universe!"

Yang Weili silently strengthened a certain belief in his heart.

……………

At the same time, an extremely important meeting was held in Blue Star, thousands of miles away.

“Don’t the previous Great Space Wall project look risky?”

"At that time, we didn't even have a Lagran space city. We didn't even have a few large-scale automated factories. Let alone antimatter, we didn't even understand the grand unified theory."

"But we still gritted our teeth and implemented it. To this end, we did not hesitate to split Base Zero and transport a large amount of talents and materials to the deep space construction like a bottomless pit."

"All the efforts, all the hard work, finally paid off today when we were able to take a breath in the crisis of civilization overthrowing. Everyone actually became conservative and optimistic about the implementation of the next plan?"

At the meeting, Professor Han beside him was the first to stand up without Lu Yu having to speak.

As the successor of Professor Mao, he has spent so much energy and effort over the years.

Today's Base Zero is no longer the transit base for contacting Lu Yu!

It is already semi-public, the world's most cutting-edge scientific research center, and a legendary place where the latest scientific and technological achievements of mankind have emerged one after another.

The industries involved in Base Zero alone have reached a million people, which is comparable to a large city, and it is a technological city.

There was once a legend.

A signal tower had just been built on the outskirts of Base Zero, and it had to be announced to be demolished at the celebration banquet the next day.

Because a mature and revolutionary result was obtained in the research institute of the base.

The specifications of this signal tower are destined to lag behind the times.

Base Zero is developing at such a speed that Professor Han has to spend all his energy in management. Just like a car speeding at high speed, the driver must be more careful, otherwise the slightest negligence will result in the car being destroyed and people being killed.

But the status of Base Zero is there, and when Professor Han spoke on behalf of Base Zero, his weight was naturally no less than any of the attendees.

"Professor Mao has resigned from the position of Forward Base, but he did not choose to return to Blue Star, but applied to continue to preside over the construction of the Great Wall Base."

"My old partner went with all the original starting players of Forward Base, some of whom have not returned to Blue Star for five years."

"They have worked so hard but still remember their original mission to defend the solar system for mankind! And now everyone has not even figured out the situation of the unknown fleet, and they are thinking about opening champagne at halftime?"

Professor Han also noticed that many people were moved by the simulation plan proposed by Forward Base, and the purpose of building the Great Wall of Space was to block the unknown fleet and entrust the future to mankind at a terrible development speed.

This is understandable, and blind optimism about the situation may just be a confidence expansion.

But you must know that this strategy determines the future of mankind. If a wrong decision at this moment will lead to the demise of human civilization.

Then anyone at this moment will be a sinner!

Professor Han's words may be quite harsh, making many people's virtual reality images stiffen a bit.

"I propose to suspend this strategic seminar for the time being!"

"What humans should do in the future should not be decided by us, but by those who work on the front line in deep space!"

This proposal made everyone stunned, and then everyone had to cheer up because Lu Yu silently raised his hand.

He agreed to Professor Han's proposal!
