Chapter 22 Success! (Thanks to my father for asking if you are afraid of the alliance leaders support!)
Fang Linyan's flying momentum also slowed down, and by constantly relying on the passing meteorite, Fang Linyan successfully slowed down, and finally landed on a meteorite the size of a tabletop.
Here he immediately used a robotic arm to replace the sci with a spare jet engine, and then successfully flew back.
This is also thanks to the fact that the Coles is sailing at the lowest speed in order to cooperate with their maintenance. Otherwise, at the speed of the sci, even if it explodes, it will be impossible to catch it again.
Seeing Fang Linyan reappearing like an immortal Xiao Qiang, Latvis and others were also excited.
After Fang Linyan returned to the engineering ship, even though he seemed to have just walked between life and death, he actually didn't seem to have any big complaints.
After returning to the engineering ship, I didn't say much. After resting for five minutes, I resupplied and then continued to enter the sci to prepare for repair work.
Jie Ha had planned a lot of coercive words, but he didn't even say them out.
As for the matter of departure, Fang Linyan suddenly spoke in the communication channel:
"There is nothing we can do about the accident that just happened. It is indeed a natural disaster. There is no one to blame..."
"The Coles is a merchant ship, not a warship, and the detection radar used is in a blind spot for meteorites less than one meter in diameter."
"But I happen to carry a drone with me that can provide early warning, so I have to make a request."
At this time, the communication channel could be heard by Jha, Sanchez, Latvis and others. When they heard that Fang Linyan was about to make a request, instead of being embarrassed, they felt relieved.
Because of the current situation, I am not afraid of him making demands, but I am afraid that he will give up the challenge without saying a word!
So Latvis hurriedly said:
"you say."
Fang Linyan felt a slight pain in his chest at this time, probably from being hit before.
After coughing twice, he felt better again and continued:
"The performance of my drone is quite good. It can transmit a large amount of information to me in advance for early warning."
"In view of the fact that the optical brain defense program of the engineering ship has been continuously broken through and a lot of problems have arisen, I request to have command authority over the engineering ship."
After hearing Fang Linyan's words, Jie Ha subconsciously wanted to object, because there was no doubt from Fang Linyan's tone that this guy wanted to use the engineering ship as cannon fodder.
However, Fang Linyan had already figured out his thoughts and added simply:
"Actually, all the tedious operations of the engineering ship have been completed, and there is no need for the motor chief Jieha to sit on it."
"You can just send any artificial man on board, then call my companion on board and supervise that he can operate according to my instructions."
Upon hearing what Fang Linyan said, Jie Ha immediately agreed. Of course he would be happy with this kind of thing.
Only a fool would object to being able to escape from the dangerous engineering ship and return to the safety of the Coles to drink coffee!
As for the sacrificed engineering ship and artificial man, the motor chief is not responsible for this kind of thing! Even if there is any problem, it is something Latvis and Sanchez should worry about!
So Fang Linyan's request was soon met, and the goat was able to board the ship successfully.
Fang Linyan continued to work, but within two minutes of continuing the work, he noticed another meteorite striking at high speed.
Fortunately, this time Fang Linyan discovered it in time with a mechanical gyrfalcon, and then had the engineering ship launch missiles to destroy it.
Why is Fang Linyan so desperate to take over this job?
Firstly, of course, it is to gain a higher contribution to the main mission.
More importantly, he discovered that in such a crisis-ridden environment, the entire person's spirit would be in a passive state of high concentration.
Although this will consume your energy faster, it can bring your mechanical repair ability to a whole new level!
If mechanical repair ability is a quantifiable RPG upgrade method, then when Fang Linyan controls the sci to repair, a large amount of experience points will keep popping up on his head!
This kind of thing is commonly known as experience refresh, and for Fang Linyan, it is a brand new experience.
Of course, he would not miss such a great opportunity, even though it would put himself in an extremely dangerous situation, so of course he would have to call his own people to help.
Not only that, when the goat participates in this work, his contribution is also indispensable. This is also a matter of mutual benefit.
Therefore, Fang Linyan can be said to be fascinated and devoted to his current work.
...
In the captain's room, Latvis stared intently at the repair progress given by the optical brain.
From 0% at the beginning, to 30% later, and now 98%!!
Below the repair progress is the service life bar of the backup engine calculated by the optical computer.
At this time, the pointer has pointed to the end of the service life bar, and the color has turned red to purple.
There are still prompts popping up next to it:
"Warning: The backup engine has reached its usage limit. Please shut down in time for cooling and maintenance, otherwise it may explode at any time!"
However, if the No. 2 engine has not started to supply energy, the backup engine will be shut down directly.
This will lead to a serious shortage of energy supply for the entire ship, and the optical brain will take emergency measures on its own:
These measures include, but are not limited to, abandoning up to five cargo compartments, closing the protective cover at the front of the hull, and shutting down the protective particle cannon used to destroy large meteorites...
In this case, it is almost tantamount to committing suicide.
As the welding gun in Fang Linyan's hand on the screen sparkled with long sparks, and then the sparks finally extinguished,
The repair progress directly reached 100%!
Latvis immediately took a deep breath and pressed the button next to him, and the mechanical female voice of the optical brain came.
Engine No. 2 begins self-test....
If the self-test is completed, do you choose to start the No. 2 engine immediately?
Latvis immediately yelled:
"Yes!"
Then he pressed the intercom next to him:
"Battery, battery, please reply if you hear me."
Fang Linyan quickly said:
"Battery online."
Latvis said:
"Time is running out. Engine No. 2 will restart in two minutes. Please quickly enter the engineering ship and return to the safe area."
Fang Linyan said:
"Received, I'm already trying to dock with the engineering ship. At the same time, please prepare to open the entrance and exit C. I will return to the interior of the ship from there."
Jha, who was in charge of this aspect, immediately said:
"receive."
As a result, a minute later, when Latvis saw that the No. 2 engine's self-check program had reached 70% and no problems were found, he forced the ignition directly!
Suddenly, a large amount of mixed fuel poured into the No. 2 engine.
A thick tail flame that was more than a hundred meters long spurted out, and a large piece of meteorite behind was impacted into a semi-dissolved state, immediately generating a strong and surging power!
And that thick tail flame almost flew past the top of the rapidly turning engineering ship, almost scorching it!
The goat looked at the warning prompt that suddenly flashed red, and took a breath, and then blurted out a few curse words.
On the instrument panel in the captain's cabin, the meter indicating the output power of the No. 2 engine immediately rose steadily!
Seeing this scene, Latvis stopped operating through the optical brain at all and immediately punched the switch next to him.
Then he saw a separate control panel slide out from under the table, and Latvis immediately pressed the red button on the panel.
Suddenly, an announcement came from the optical computer next to it:
"Dear Captain, you are directly performing an emergency shutdown operation on the backup engine. This operation may lead to a series of unpredictable consequences."
"These consequences include, but are not limited to, sensor damage, rupture of energy output pipelines, forced entry into shipwide emergency measures, etc."
"According to the provisions of Article 6, Paragraph 4 of the Basic Space Navigation Manual, your operation will also be recorded in the navigation manual and sent to the board of directors as soon as you enter the starport. You will be required to report on your work later.
Explain the reason here.”
"The backup engine has implemented forced shutdown measures, and the energy output of the backup engine will gradually decline within one minute, and finally reduce to zero."
Latvis ignored these warnings and just focused on the other parameter next to him.
That is the energy power prompt table of the entire ship.
As the backup engines were shut down, the energy supply of the entire ship also began to decline rapidly.
If it drops to more than 40%, the condition of "serious insufficient" energy supply for the entire ship has been reached...that is definitely not what Latvis wants to see!
75%,
64%,
55%,
Looking at the rapidly declining parameters, Latvis showed no expression on his face, but the white knuckles clenching the chair showed that he was not at peace inside.
However, when it dropped to 49%, it seemed that some boundary had been broken.
The energy supply of the entire ship began to remain flat, and slowly climbed up bit by bit, returning to 50%.
Seeing this scene, Sanchez next to him also exhaled a long breath as if a stone had fallen to the ground:
"It's perfect. The No. 2 engine is still in a preheating state and can only maintain no more than 30% of its power output."
"If you want to achieve more than 60% power output, you have to wait for more than an hour."
"So, old man, get out your bottle of okus rum! I think a toast is in order."
