Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

7 a.m.

Along with a creaking sound, many people heard a huge roar from the top of the mountain, and a violent reflection made many people unconsciously raise their hands to cover their eyes, although last night the Business Department had announced that 10 Science will conduct experiments on outbound resource collection spacecraft, but many people still want to see it.

In the distance, the reflection became more and more intense, but many people saw a large round cover beginning to split into two, and there was a violent roar.

Gradually, a triangle with three disk-shaped spaceships slowly appeared under the sun. The spacecraft was overall oval-shaped, with three disk-shaped legs underneath. You could see faint emanations from around the disk. White light.

Many people held up their mobile phones to take pictures, and then used software to calculate it. The length was about 130 meters, and the width was about 40 meters. Such a huge spacecraft shocked many people. Scenes like this are only seen in some science fiction movies. You can see it.

The spacecraft began to move slowly, not very fast, and many people could be vaguely seen on the spacecraft.

Some reporters have already started reporting, and many people are wondering what kind of resources they are looking for this time, because the city has gone out twice to find resources for the city in the past, and Congress has not announced what specific resources were found.

However, most people guessed that it was a mimic, and many people began to discuss it intensely.

At this time, the spacecraft had slowly moved to the barrier area, and soon only the white light could be seen, and the light became farther and farther. At this time, the commotion in the city subsided, and the reporters stopped reporting anything, because this It is top secret, and it is impossible for the administrative department to disclose anything. Many people feel that speculation is meaningless.

At this time, on the upper level of the spacecraft, hundreds of people from Section 10 were standing on the deck, and the gods were also there. Noah yawned and looked at the values ​​​​on the light and shadow panel.

"Things are good so far."

Everyone in Section 10 looked at the values ​​​​on their respective light and shadow screens. Such tests need to be carried out three or four times, and then the final values ​​​​are corrected, so as to ensure that there are no problems during the voyage.

Gene and Tang Rao stood together, smoking cigarettes. Several other guys were busy. Witte, Gu Yi and Deguna were discussing something. Li Chu was checking the system, and Rose was Check the wear and tear during flight.

This voyage is extremely important. It is necessary to bring back a large number of mimics in order to lay a solid foundation for the development of Bright City in the next hundred years. This voyage is also unprecedented for the city's wear and tear. Mimics and various reserves Resources have dropped a lot.

In order to build this material collection ship, people from Section 10 have been working day and night for almost three months. Fortunately, everything went smoothly.

"If the values ​​are normal, I think there is no need to test so much. The more than 30 people we selected can completely maintain all parts of the spacecraft. Plus Gu Yi and Werther are also together this time, so I think it is better to set sail as soon as possible."

Tang Rao said, Gene smiled and shook his head.

“I don’t know what kind of changes have taken place in the outside world. Although we have also seen the impact of the mecha records when Jamie’s child came, and there is almost no big change from the past, there are still some changes in the situation in the ocean. "

Because when Jamie passed by the ocean, he always walked around the island and did not directly cross the ocean. If he wanted to obtain the mimic object, he had to go directly to the center of the ocean, which is where the asteroid fell and which is also the mimic object. Wherever they exist, they must do everything possible to drive the spacecraft to a suitable location, and then start mining mimics day and night.

During this period, Jean and the others must be responsible for getting rid of all the monsters that come over. Although those huge monsters are also afraid of light, the damage caused by light to them is almost negligible. If a large amount of damage is to be caused, unless it takes a long time There is a strong light on the big surface, but it is obviously impossible in this dark world.

Fortunately, these monsters also have their own biological-like structures. You only need to destroy their structures to kill them. Gene still clearly remembers the last time he collected resources, a slight negligence will cause damage to the hull.

But this time there is no problem at all. With the help of Tang Rao, Gu Yi and Werther, it should be much easier.

The only thing that Jean cares about now is the countless mutant monsters on the movement track, and the number is very large. Compared with the past two times, this has increased many times.

Jamie was able to come to Brilliant City alive because of the girl named Tasia.

Gene and the others watched a video a few days ago. Jamie was driving a mecha to avoid the monsters, but was eventually surrounded by the monsters. He said that he felt like he was going to die at that time, and he was just thinking about who could save him. Save her, and then Tasia appeared, crushing all the monsters with extremely powerful combat power.

Afterwards, Tasia sent Jamie to the vicinity of Brilliant City, because the area around Brilliant City would be cleaned up regularly to prevent these monsters from gathering too much and posing a threat to the barrier.

As soon as they see an increase in the number of monsters, they will immediately start cleaning up. Jean looked at the visible barriers with worry. Now the spacecraft has begun to speed up. At this speed and height, it will take about half a month to get to the center of the ocean. about.

Because the size of the spacecraft is too huge, increasing the speed will accelerate mechanical wear, even put unnecessary burden on the engine, and will also consume energy violently, so the speed of half a month is just right, neither too fast nor too slow, and the return According to calculations, it may take nearly two months, which is why Gene is a little worried.

So the plan is to clean up all the monsters along the way when setting sail. In this way, the monsters will not be able to gather too much within half a year. This will save Tang Rao and the others a lot of trouble when they return.

From a distance, some distant silhouettes could be seen moving in the darkness. As soon as the spacecraft crossed the barrier, a violent white light was released from the surface of the three disc engines below.

The light expanded instantly, and in less than a few minutes, a large area of ​​plant-like plants near the barrier was cleared away.

The spacecraft continued to move. Today's test requires a test of 200 to 300 kilometers before we can finally determine some parameters of the spacecraft. We will continue to adjust after returning.

Jean looked at the mountain peak not far away, and many black spots began to appear. Those bat-like monsters noticed the spaceship and began to flap their wings and take off. Jean just passed by, but at this time Witte was already standing The top of the spaceship.

Violent orange particles began to burst out from Werther's body, and in front of him was a large black group of flying monsters.

The coverage area of ​​​​the orange particles became larger and larger, and then Witte raised a hand. For a moment, the orange particles flew towards the monsters like a swarm of fireflies.

Waves of violent flapping sounds were heard, as well as the sharp screams of the monsters. However, in the next second, the orange particles turned into countless blades in an instant. The large black monsters in front of him were instantly fragmented, and in the orange blades It turned into pieces and fell down.

No monster that took off was spared, and no monster could remain intact.

"To deal with monsters in a large area, that guy's ability is really useful."

Tang Rao muttered, Jean smiled and nodded, and the spacecraft began to sail across the mountain peaks, heading into the distance. At this time, there was a loud warning sound, and soon the spacecraft began to lower its altitude.

Because the material surrounding the entire planet has an irresistible and powerful attraction, if the altitude is too high, the spacecraft will be sucked up in an instant. When the spacecraft begins to lower to an altitude of 800 meters, the alarm caused by the suction stops. Come down.

Everyone was in false alarm now, but Noah still ordered to continue to rise a little higher, because there were too many mountains on the way to the sea, and if the spacecraft could not rise to a certain height, it would inevitably need to make a detour.

But when the spacecraft rose to 903 meters, the alarm sounded again. Noah began to determine the altitude value with several staff members. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, the lift-off value of the spacecraft must be fixed at a level that will not trigger The value of the alert.

After several determinations, the maximum altitude of the spacecraft was 868 meters. This altitude was extremely safe, and some places that could not be bypassed could only be cut directly.

Many behemoths could be seen moving on the ground, the largest of which was more than thirty meters high. After they discovered the spacecraft, they howled.

There is almost only a point of light left in the brilliant city behind them. They have traveled 70 kilometers. If they continue like this, they can determine the changes in various numerical values ​​of the spacecraft after a long voyage. If there are any problems, they can be prepared in advance. .

Tamai took the 33 selected people and stood next to Noah, listening to some staff talking to them about the specific parameters. Many of them were extremely experienced engineering experts in the city.

But without exception, among the 33 people, they were all criminals. They were free at the end of this journey. During the two-month intensive training lectures, they really showed their outstanding talents and provided the construction of this spacecraft. Very helpful.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve set foot on the land of humankind’s past. When I get there, I want to take a look.”

Tang Rao said and Jean nodded. Both of them wanted to go to the ground to see. In addition to seeing those nostalgic human cities, they also wanted to investigate some things. The world has been closed for too long. This time Traveling Gene is also determined to understand the current situation of the entire world.

"Apart from being a little colder outside, it doesn't seem to be as bad as I thought."

At this time, Ran Zai came over. Many people were still a little confused about his existence, which was neither a high-level mutant nor a scientist. However, they heard that he was going to cross the ocean with Jean and go to a country that might exist on the other side of the ocean. Many people have raised objections.

It's just that Jean has decided to take Ran Zai to that unknown land and visit that country that may exist.

"Why don't we go to the kangaroo country with Witte and the others first?"

Ran Zai suggested, Jean smiled and shook his head.

"The purpose of their visit was to take a detailed look at the situation in the entire country and conduct an assessment of the current situation of humanity there, including planning the route for possible future military operations."

Ran Zai waved his hands helplessly, Tang Rao glanced at him and said.

"Jean is not omnipotent. If there is a crisis, you'd better ask for your own blessings. The outside world is no better than Brilliant City."

Ran Zai didn't wear protective clothing on the ship, so he was a little uncomfortable at first, but now he's much better, and the pollution outside is not as serious as Ran Zai thought. Instead, he feels that it's breathable outside, and he's in a good mood.

It was also the first time since Ran Zai was born that he had seen the outside world at such a close distance. For people in Bright City, this was probably a sight that they would never be able to see in their lifetime.

"It's better now. I don't have to live in a boring city. I like this excitement very much."

Jean smiled and said.

"Before you leave, your friends have to deal with it, right?"

Ran Zai scratched his head and said.

"I have already told them that I will ask Section 13 to give them a special letter of appointment when the time comes, so that their secret activities in the city will be justified."

Tang Rao frowned slightly, and Ran Zai immediately explained.

"I can guarantee that none of our criminals, although they have used some means that may have violated the law, do not meet the standards for imprisonment."

"You can be considered rioters in the city yourself."

Ran Zai said hurriedly with a smile.

"Absolutely not."

Tang Rao was just joking. It is true that Ran Zai's small group has made a lot of efforts in discovering and arresting rioters in the city, and it has indeed helped the department a lot. But what is the meaning of their existence? Tang Rao is actually a bit hard to agree with.

"Don't worry, they will never do anything extraordinary. I have already negotiated with them. If possible, they will join Section 13."

Jean asked in surprise.

"The child is willing?"

Ran Zai made an OK gesture.

"She has already said that she really likes Le Xiao, the current secretary of Section 13, so there is nothing wrong with joining Section 13."

Gene laughed. If this group of capable people enter Section 13 and are under the control of the Acting Section, it will be a great help for many things that Le Xiao needs to do in the future.

At this time, Jean turned around and could no longer see the Brilliant City. He could only see a small spot of light in the dark night.

"Can't you leave later? Aren't the people from Tianji Space Country coming soon?"

Ran Zai asked, Tang Rao shook his head.

"Everything has been decided. You don't have to worry about it. It will be whatever it is. Besides, we will only go there for three months at most and then come back."
