Chapter 179
Because Susan unexpectedly discovered it and promptly alerted Qiu Siyuan, Qiu Siyuan immediately withdrew all the flying saucers and drones in his lunar base from the cave on the back of the moon and flew towards the ground. At the same time, he sent a statement to the Kuiper Space Exploration Headquarters.
Its lunar base is an Earth exploration base affiliated to the Kuiper Space Agency. This was used to warn Moulton Jackson and force him to abandon the attack on his lunar base.
Moulton Jackson usually works in the Material Reserve and Distribution Space City of the Outer Space Exploration Branch, so his real body is not in Kuiper's old human space city, but in the Kuiper Belt, which is about 10 billion kilometers away from the earth.
On the outer edge (note, the Kuiper belt is about 30-50 astronomical units from the sun, that is to say, its inner edge is about 4.5 billion kilometers from the earth, and the outer edge is about 7.5-10 billion kilometers. Because its diameter is about 20 billion kilometers,
The boundary between its inner and outer edges is not very clear). However, the Kuiper Belt has entered the era of tachyon transmission, and time and space have been brought closer by the Kuipers. During his break, he only needs to enter the tachyon transmission room in his office and input
Destination number, he reached his residence in Kuiper's old human space city in an instant.
Some readers may object that they have the Material Reserve and Distribution Office City of the Outer Space Exploration Branch on the outer edge of the Kuiper Belt, and there is no need to "overnight" in the old human space city of Kuiper, which is billions of kilometers away from their office.
In fact, this is the difference between the views of time and space between Earthlings and the Kuipers. Earthlings may not know much about the living patterns of astronauts. Astronauts’ views on space are also divided into small spaces and large spaces. They have just entered.
When they went into space, most of them stayed in a spacecraft cabin with a radius of less than a hundred square meters every day, and experienced an era of "jail" discomfort that was unbearable for people on earth. Since then, they have continued to expand their activity space by building space cities.
, and later developed to the construction of giant space cities tens of thousands of kilometers long, creating a larger artificial activity environment for themselves. In this way, they also have the desire to pursue the size of space.
Therefore, Moulton Jackson also has "daytime" (note, the Kuipers do not have the concept of daytime, here it is only understood as working time) to move in the small space in his office city, and "night" returns to his old place in Kuiper.
The habit of resting in human settlements. After all, communicating with neighbors in a wider space can be regarded as a kind of "leisure and entertainment". It is human nature.
Kuipers are actually divided into two ways of living: the real society and the virtual world. The former is primitive, and the latter is "future". Transitioning from reality to virtuality is also the only way for higher human civilization. This is mainly determined by the physiological factors of Kuipers.
Because the Kuipers are creatures in a single biological world in a weightless environment, their physiological characteristics determine that they are not suitable for living in groups. Living in groups, once microorganisms in a biologically diverse environment invade,
It became the catastrophe of the Kuipers' annihilation. Therefore, the world of the Kuipers is also an environment where reality and virtuality overlap. But this has little to do with the world to which Moulton Jackson belongs. In terms of the huge human world of Kuipers,
, can only be an insignificant person in the real world. But no matter what, he still lives between the two places through the tachyon transmission system in the above two life modes.
In addition, he also has another world, which is his other way of life, which is his third area of activity, that is, controlling the interstellar fleet built by Shi Hanlin near the earth through his monitor, and interacting with Qiu Siyuan, Su Shan and others.
Lei. What kind of life is this? Sitting in a comfortable residence, using many astronauts or earthlings as chess pieces to play "games". Can the earthlings experience this kind of entertainment? The earthlings in the cold weapon age, I'm afraid
I don't even dare to think about it.
Moulton Jackson saw the statement from the Space Exploration Headquarters on the monitor in his office in Space City. He saw that the lunar base at Qiu Siyuan on the far side of the moon was an important project of the Inner Space Exploration Bureau's earth exploration activities.
After that, he immediately checked the space coordinate parameters of the target he was planning to attack, and compared it with the space coordinate parameters of Qiu Siyuan's lunar base given in the statement. He was stunned. The space parameters of the space target he was planning to attack were the same as those in Kuiper Space.
The base space parameters declared by the headquarters were completely consistent, and he couldn't help but gasp.
No matter how courageous he was, he would not dare to attack any targets in the institutions affiliated with Kuiper Space Headquarters. This is because although his new body is Lin Yibo's new human being and is also on duty at Kuiper Space Headquarters, he does not know much about Kuiper Space Headquarters.
The height of the technological development of new mankind. Just like office workers in modern institutions may not know the power of the technical world. Although he has the courage to secretly use the idle equipment at the Kuiper Space Expedition Operation Site to play real war "games", this
The Kuipers' exploration work should not be treated as a "game".
"Stop the attack on Qiu Silin's lunar base immediately." After a painful ideological struggle, he finally opened Shi Hanlin's video call and issued the order.
Although Shi Hanlin was very reluctant, after Moulton Jackson explained the stakes, he became frightened and hurriedly conveyed Moulton Jackson's order to his fleet commander.
A large number of Starfleet flying saucers and drones that were heading towards the moon immediately distanced themselves and hovered on the spot as requested by Moulton Jackson and entered a high alert state.
"Then what should we do next?" Shi Hanlin asked Moulton Jackson.
"What do you think?" Moulton Jackson asked.
"Return to the vicinity of geosynchronous orbit," Shi Hanlin said without hesitation: "Since the attack operation has been cancelled, we must evacuate the space between the earth and the moon as soon as possible and find a safe place near the earth to assemble."
"The problem is that if Susan ambushes us on our retreat again, we may suffer serious losses." Moulton Jackson shook his head and said.
"What should we do?" Shi Hanlin thought for a while and said, "If we can't retreat to where we were, we can only continue to move forward and find a safe place to dock in front of the earth."
"I think if Qiu Siyuan gets the information that we are attacking their base and withdraws the flying saucers and drones in their base to the earth, if we continue to move forward, we may enter their ambush circle. This is still not safe.
.”
"What should we do?" Shi Hanlin was a little uneasy.
"We will temporarily move towards the orbit of Mars, and after we have gained a certain distance from the earth, we will then enter the orbit of the earth. Then we will adjust the speed of the flying saucer and transfer to a low-Earth orbit. This way we can avoid their ambush."
Moulton Jackson said.
"Okay then. I'll let the fleet commander take care of it."
Just like that, Shi Hanlin's interstellar fleet began to change its orbit and flew to the orbit of Mars.
But since then, Susan's plan to ambush him has come to nothing. She made her quick reaction force wait for a long time on the way back from Shi Hanlin's fleet. When there was no sign of returning, she asked her quick reaction force to return to the other side.
The original one is close to the Earth's Arctic Circle.
"I have to thank you." When Qiu Siyuan learned that Shi Hanlin's fleet had turned around and was missing, he immediately drove its flying saucer back to the base on the back of the moon. Of course, he also stepped up his precautions and deployed a large number of unmanned aerial vehicles around the moon.
machine to guard against enemy sneak attacks.
"What's there to be thankful for?" Susan smiled: "We just discovered their fleet by chance."
"No, your reminder is very important. It has allowed us to accumulate more experience. In the past, we did not understand that entering and exiting the earth's atmosphere and the areas where we usually move are easily discovered and tracked by the enemy. Now that you have said this, we will
When I gain experience, I won’t make this mistake again when entering the Earth’s atmosphere.”
"Sigh." Su Shan sighed: "In this way, it will be more difficult for me to find the position of my opponent in the future. The experience that is not easy to obtain has been learned by you and them after such a hard work. From now on.
It would be even more difficult for me to find you."
"It seems that you still want to hit us in the future." Qiu Siyuan smiled.
