A burst of soothing music woke Tang Xiao from his sleep. He opened his eyes, looked at his surroundings as usual, and smiled bitterly.
[Manager, I'm sorry to disturb you, but there are very important things that require your decision.] Qi Jian's voice came from the communicator on the side.
"No matter what it is, put it aside for me!" Tang Xiao stood up from the bed, walked to the bathroom, asked the mastermind to adjust the water temperature to ice-cold again, and then washed his face vigorously.
He supported the sink with both hands, looked up at himself who was pale due to the cold, and gritted his teeth. After a while, he stood up suddenly, put on his clothes, slammed the door and walked out, "Mastermind
!Lead the way to the bridge!"
"Manager, I'm sorry to disturb you." At the bridge command center, Qi Jian saluted Tang Xiao respectfully.
"Say it." Tang Xiao said indifferently.
"The engineering team has established two mining stations near the gaseous planet, and while you were resting, it has sent back two ships of helium-3 and refined it. Now we can take off more spacecraft, especially if we need
A transport ship that goes back and forth between Planet Dawn and the mothership." Qi Jian said.
"continue."
"Then... the reconnaissance team has sent back a report and has initially selected 17 landing points. We can choose one of them to launch the landing." At this point, Qi Jian's tone was trembling, and he opened an interface for Tang Xiao.
"Just do what you want." Tang Xiao waved his hand impatiently.
Qi Jian was a little surprised, "Manager, this first colony is likely to be our capital in the future. I...I dare not overstep and make such a decision for you."
Tang Xiao was irritated, but he had no choice but to look at the screen again. He originally planned to just choose a place at random, but when he raised his finger to click, he saw Qi Jian's complicated eyes.
There was expectation, pride, and a little uneasiness in his eyes. He clenched his fists and trembled slightly, trying his best to control his excitement. Not only him, but also everyone else on the bridge.
Tang Xiao sighed and looked at the screen again. This time he compared the landing points carefully, and the knowledge crammed into his mind poured out like water from a floodgate.
Combining the knowledge he had learned, he chose an area with mountains and rivers and a large grassland. He pointed at this place and said to Qi Jian: "Let's go here. The latitude here is moderate, and there are water sources around it. There is also a mountain above sea level.
The hill of more than 1,000 meters is used as the commanding heights of defense. First, 20 marines were sent to land, and after the defense line was deployed, the construction of residential areas was immediately started."
"Yes! Manager! This is our first colony! It is our first step towards this universe!!" Qi Jian was a little excited and immediately arranged the work.
After the landing point is determined, all aspects of work begin immediately.
Soon, a transport ship carrying 20 Marines and 50 construction workers took off from the mothership and landed on the Dawn Planet. The Marines spread out to drive away wild animals and put down positioning beacons, while the construction workers also
Start organizing your own mechanized exoskeleton for engineering use.
"The beacon signal is normal. Manager, we can put the mothership into synchronous orbit." Qi Jian said to Tang Xiao after confirming the signal from the beacon.
Tang Xiao nodded and said to the operator on the bridge console: "Enter the synchronous orbit of the Dawn Planet and keep the mothership above the beacon at all times. Master Brain, you will provide assistance."
【OK.】
The engine of the Kushen mothership, which is more than 41,300 meters high, started again, and the extremely powerful driving force pushed this behemoth of more than 370 billion tons to start moving forward, continuously descending into the outer gravitational circle of the Dawn Planet, and then began to maintain the same rotation speed as the planet.
speed.
When approaching the orbit of the Dawn Planet, due to the huge mass of the mothership, it even triggered several earthquakes of magnitude 3 to 5 and underground water ejection on the surface of the planet.
After entering the predetermined orbit, under the action of the centrifugal force and inertia of the planet's rotation, the mothership only needs very little power to maintain navigation. Keeping running in synchronization with the ground beacon, a hatch in the center of the mothership is opened, and then an orbital drop capsule is launched.
go out.
The disposable orbital drop cabin started to burn due to friction in the atmosphere. From the ground, it looked like a meteor falling towards the ground. When it was about to land, the reverse engine of the drop cabin started and sprayed blazing flames towards the ground.
Help the airborne capsule land smoothly.
The construction workers who were ready on the side immediately went over, opened the airborne cabin, and assembled the modular housing made of ultra-light materials inside. The shell of the airborne cabin is the outer wall of the building. In less than 20 minutes, a two-story building was built.
The small building has been built.
The mothership continues to airdrop buildings at a rate of one launch every 10 minutes, including housing, solar and wind power generation facilities, water purification facilities, etc.
Tang Xiao also successively selected some farmers and maintenance workers among the 600,000 frozen hibernation residents to wake them up, and then let them land on the Dawn Planet in a transport ship. He also selected a man named Gu Laham from this group of people and appointed him as the leader.
village head.
Once it started, everything was proceeding at an orderly pace. Tang Xiao stretched and stood up, looking at the busy people, still feeling a little heavy.
Looking at the vast universe outside the porthole on the other side, Tang Xiao couldn't help but walk over. He saw the stars who didn't know how many light years away, and thought about the inexplicable dream that might have caused him to travel through time. There was something in his heart.
An unknown fire broke out, his teeth were clenched, his fists could not help but be clenched tightly, and then he punched the thick porthole with a fierce punch!
He roared like a wild beast, "Destiny NMB!! Choose NMB! Choose you MLGB, you know! I just want to go home! Are you kidding me? Okay! Then I will penetrate this universe and give it to you
Look!! Then you can let me go home!! Fuck!!!”
Bang! He punched again, and the wound that had been bandaged by the nurse burst open again, bleeding profusely.
But at this moment, his eyes were full of fanaticism! Soon they returned to calm, a somewhat terrifying calm.
"Mastermind, ask the nurse to bandage me." Tang Xiao said lightly, "Also, get the information I need. I have a lot of things to do."
【Okay, manager.】
He is somewhat resigned to his fate now, and he also feels vaguely that he really can't go back. If this is the case, and if he continues to be in such a hazy state, then maybe one day when the Star Destroyer arrives, his family will still be completely destitute.
Moreover, after Tang Xiao saw the fanatical and expectant looks in Qi Jian's and the others' eyes just now, he also understood that he could not let them down. If he really did, it is unknown how firmly he can sit in this position.
.
Human society is a very complex collection of various interests. Although the mastermind said that it would not matter even if he ordered the mothership to self-destruct, he was very sure that if he really wanted to do this, the first thing he would have to worry about is
The rebellion of these subordinates.
Tang Xiao sat back on the main seat of the bridge, opened the items of the colonization plan and began to check. He needed to understand what difficulties he would face and how to solve them.
He is a very serious person. Once he is determined to do it, he will know very well what he should do and how he needs to do it. He does not check over and over again the things that are pulled from the game into reality like a happy baby.
Science and technology projects, drooling over those giant battleships that are simply unrealistic, he was just looking at what he should be looking at seriously.
What you should know most now is how to establish a colony.
When the environment is unknown, rapid development and establishing one's own solid power is always the best choice.
Especially now, when people's hearts are separated from each other, as a time traveler, he deeply understands that he is actually the loneliest here. Moreover, who can guarantee that the current environment will not be another "The Truman Show"?
Putting aside the confusion and uneasiness in his heart, Tang Xiao clicked on an entry in the "Interstellar Colony Construction Guide", opened the files and looked through it.
