Chapter 1 Descends from the sky
In North America, late at night, the sky is filled with stars and the stars are bright.
It's late at night, the wind is light and the clouds are thin. It's the time for astronomy enthusiasts to observe the stars and appreciate the movement of celestial bodies. Through the space telescope, it can be seen that a meteorite is flying towards the earth quickly with a long tail.
For astronomical institutions from various countries and many astronomy enthusiasts, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
HSD Aerospace Administration, a huge command room, dozens of staff are busy at their jobs, a screen the size of a movie screen at the front shows a meteorite flying rapidly, the atmosphere is very tense.
"General, according to calculations, the 2017 NJI125 asteroid will pass by the Earth at a distance of 396,000 kilometers in seventeen hours. At that time, a small number of meteorite fragments will be attracted and separated by the Earth, which will not cause much impact!" A staff member said
He stood up in panic and reported to the head of the space agency, General Nost:
"Are you sure? Are you sure?" General Nost suddenly stood up and asked in surprise:
The 2017NJI125 asteroid is nearly 3 kilometers long. If it hits the earth, it will cause catastrophic consequences. The energy of the explosion is equivalent to a nuclear bomb with the equivalent of tens of millions of tons, which can easily destroy a super city. The indirect effect will cause the death of more than one billion people around the world.
.
There are tens of thousands of asteroids near the Earth. There are hundreds of asteroids with a diameter of 4 kilometers. There are estimated to be more than 2,000 near-Earth asteroids with a diameter of more than 1 km. This type of asteroid has the possibility of impacting the Earth. So far,
2017NJI125 is the most threatening near-Earth asteroid to mankind.
"Sir, after more than a dozen calculations, if there are no other unexpected factors, the results are accurate!" the reporter replied loudly:
"Continue to monitor and never let down your guard!" General Nost ordered with a stern expression:
After speaking, General Nost turned his head and looked at an old man with silver hair with bloodshot eyes: "Dr. Hossen, have you found out the reason? Why couldn't we obtain the monitoring data of 2017NJI125 in advance?"
"General Nost, it should be caused by some kind of force field attached to the 2017 NJI125 asteroid." Professor Huosen made a grimace and said an unclear reason:
In response to the risk of asteroids hitting the earth, the International Astronomical Organization has long established a monitoring and early warning agency, using wide-field infrared detectors, spectral imagers, optical signal sensors, optical telescopes, radio telescopes,..., and other space telescopes to specifically
Closely monitor and track those near-Earth asteroids that coincide with the Earth's orbit. Asteroids like 2017NJI125, which are the most threatening to the Earth, should have been included in the strictest monitoring scope. However, 2017NJI125 is so close to the Earth.
It was just discovered. This situation is so shocking.
How did 2017NJI125 escape the surveillance of the "dragnet"? Suddenly, astronomy enthusiasts and astronomical institutions around the world were closely monitoring its latest trends, and media from various countries rushed to report on it.
"The mysterious meteorite is coming and will cause a devastating disaster when it hits the earth!"
"Will 2017 NJI125, the asteroid closest to the Earth, hit us?"
"The end of the world is coming! Our earth is not safe!"
"The earth is the prison of mankind. The end may be tomorrow!"
"The asteroid that wiped out the dinosaur era 160,000 years ago will wipe out all mankind this time!"
"Whether it is a false alarm or a disaster that will destroy the world, the answer will be revealed in fifteen hours!"
….
Various shocking headlines occupied the most eye-catching positions on major news networks, shocking the whole world.
At this moment, everyone in the world is praying, praying that 2017NJI125 will not be naughty, will not change its orbit at will, and will not collide with the earth.
Time flies, and the 2017 NJI125 asteroid finally turns into a dazzling meteor and passes by the earth. The disintegrated meteorite fragments are captured by the earth's gravity and fall into the atmosphere. The crisis disappears and evolves into a gorgeous meteor shower, dotting the starry sky, which is extremely gorgeous.
———————
The clouds are thin, the moon is bright, the starry sky is bright, and the shooting stars are like rain. The beauty of the starry sky is very pure and intoxicating.
A strange scene happened in the sky above Zhangcheng. In the bright starry sky, a falling meteor suddenly dropped in speed. It made a big turn in the sky, bypassed a tall building in front, passed through a high-end residential area, and headed towards a low-rise building below.
The roof of a private house plummeted down.
On the rooftop, Li Mu looked up at the sky, his eyes full of fear. He saw a meteor falling straight down from the sky, as fast as thunder, and it was just about to hit him.
"Holy shit, you'll get hit by a meteor even if you look at it. You can't be so unlucky, right?"
Before losing consciousness, this thought flashed through Li Mu's mind.
With a "bang" sound, a "ball of fire" falling from the sky hit Li Mu accurately.
There was a loud "boom", and the "fat man" weighing nearly 100 kilograms fell to the sky and hit the ground heavily.
A strange thing happened. Li Mu, who weighed nearly 200 kilograms, was not smashed into meat patties by the meteors falling from the sky. He lay straight on the floor, with no wounds on his body and no blood flowing out.
A few minutes later, something even weirder happened.
Li Mu's whole body twitched, and his fat body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. After a while, the clothes held up by his round belly suddenly sank, like a deflated ball, which suddenly deflated.
The obese face gradually became more angular, the nose was high, the thick limbs became slimmer, and a few wisps of white smoke came out of Li Mu's head, as if it was on fire.
In a comatose state, Li Mu's face was distorted, the veins on his forehead were exposed, and his limbs were twitching, as if he was undergoing a cruel punishment, and he looked extremely painful.
Li Mu had a dream, a very bizarre and absurd dream.
In the dream, he became a member of the alien civilization-Sodexians, enjoying interstellar spaceships, intelligent industry, virtual communications, teleportation star gates, dark matter energy..., and other high technologies, living in an extremely technologically advanced interstellar world.
Civilization, however, one day, an interstellar insect wave broke out, and endless insect motherships poured into the Sodis star field. The Sodis stars resisted tenaciously with their powerful interstellar fleet.
After a long period of war, the Sodis civilization was unable to defeat the interstellar Zerg with extremely powerful reproductive capabilities. The development model of the interstellar Zerg was like cancer cells expanding infinitely, expanding crazily, and eventually submerging the entire Sodis galaxy, and the Sodis civilization was annihilated.
.
The fall of the planet, the mothership traveling through the time and space wormhole, the great survival crisis, resource collection, the collision of alien civilizations, the collision of celestial bodies, the escape of the black hole... After the insect wave, in his dream, Li Mu began to experience a story from the perspective of a Sodexo alien.
A fantastic space adventure.
Soon, the rapidly jumping dream scene ended, and Li Mu regained consciousness and found himself in the command room of an interstellar spacecraft again, with a sci-fi spacecraft driving console, a virtual screen showing the dynamics of the spacecraft, and a screen as big as a movie curtain.
Outside the window, there is a blue planet very close at hand, and the majestic and vast breath is blowing towards my face.
"That's the Earth, right? Where am I?"
Li Mu's eyes were blurred, and he stared obsessively at the silent blue planet outside the viewing window, muttering to himself with a blank look on his face:
"Start up successfully, permissions locked,..., language translation,..., star field positioning successful."
"Gene acquisition completed, system reset, permissions reset, binding successful,..."
"The analysis of gravitational waves is completed, the star network link is successful, and the default generation is: Xingluo!"
"……."
At this time, an electronic synthesized voice came from Li Mu's mind, telling a lot of puzzling content.
"Who? Who is talking?"
"Hello, Commander, welcome to the YE Blue Light Star Network-Link Assist System. I am Biological Brain: Luo Xing!"
"Warning, insufficient energy, commander, please replenish energy in time!"
I was in the control room of a spaceship, the vast earth appeared outside the window, and strange sounds echoed in my mind, which was extremely strange.
Could it be that he had been abducted by aliens? Li Mu was inexplicably frightened.
"Lack of energy? Who are you? Come out quickly? Why am I here?"
"Hello, Commander, I am the auxiliary brain - Luo Xing. You are located in the consciousness space where you log in to the star network - the virtual terminal: Xingluo. If you have insufficient energy, you will not be able to access the star network normally. Please replenish your energy in time!" The auxiliary brain
Luo Xing introduced:
"Star network? Virtual terminal? What do you mean?" The more he listened, the more confused he became. Li Mu asked in confusion:
"Commander, Star Network: is the abbreviation of the United Star Network of Advanced Intelligent Civilizations in the Universe. Virtual Terminal: is a virtual image that induces neuron consciousness space simulation imaging to access the Star Network." Zhi Nao Luo Xing explained:
After it explained it like this, Li Mu understood somewhat.
The Star Network is equivalent to the human Internet, but it is used by alien civilizations. The virtual terminal is equivalent to a human computer, and the display method is to generate a virtual spaceship: Luo Xing.
It's so ridiculous that I actually believed it to be true.
A strange feeling arose in Li Mu's heart, and he couldn't tell the difference between the 'dream' and the 'reality' in front of him.
"Conscious space? Well, I should still be dreaming. When will I wake up!"
Li Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly because he made his "dream" so orderly.
"Commander, do you want to exit the star network connection state?" Zhi Nao Luo Xing asked:
It was too tiring to have a 'dream' for so long. Li Mu laughed and nodded: "Haha, yes!"
Chapter completed!
