"The most important rule of the Earth Defense Force is 'never take the initiative to contact or even attack pre-warp civilization'." "That is to say, if we encounter a civilization that has not yet begun to travel the universe, we must not interfere with their historical development, let alone
Attack them." "Our mission is always to investigate anomalies."
"What if we encounter a civilization that is hostile to us? I don't think equipping us with weapons requires us to surrender, right?" Grantham now fully believes that what Duran is doing is for the great cause of all mankind, so he is completely
I can accept his fake death.
"Of course, if you do encounter danger, weapons are for you to protect yourself. Not only your individual weapons, but even the Gundam and the Enterprise spacecraft are weapons for self-protection."
"685 meters, 2.35 million tons, 29 decks, 16 arrays with a total of 266 gun ports. The range of all artillery fire exceeds 300,000 kilometers, which is almost the ultra-distance attack range from the earth to the moon. 9 torpedo firing groups can simultaneously
It releases 360 nuclear bomb-level photon torpedoes, which can cover a range of 90 million cubic kilometers. It also has powerful shields and curvature engines, but only a few people are needed to pilot it. It is hard to believe that the Enterprise is actually a spacecraft built by human technology.
." After Lockon understood the power of the starship, he felt that this spaceship was more like an alien product than something that humans could build.
In fact, a starship requires at least 700 people to operate all its functions. However, Dulan couldn't find that many people, so he let the intelligence manage everything. As long as the key parts were overridden by humans, it would be fine.
"Don't underestimate human technology too much. Heavenly beings have mastered quantum technology, and human cloning and genetic modification capabilities are also developing. If nothing happens, humans on earth will be able to move towards the center of the universe in fifty years.
, all we did was collect intelligence one step ahead of them."
"So what should we do?" Sergey asked: "The universe is so big, what should we aim for?"
"It's very simple. There is a complete monitoring system on the Enterprise. All you have to do is to investigate all abnormal gravity sources, abnormal life rhythms, abnormal space overflows, whatever the abnormality is, investigate whatever it is. You must know that anything can happen in the universe.
Yes, we just need to investigate carefully and boldly seek verification."
"It's okay for us to investigate, but look at the members you're looking for. They're either soldiers or civilians. It's okay for us to fight, but there's something wrong with the investigation. It may be a phenomenon that we don't understand. We're not scientists and we don't know how.
Deal with it." Sergey was very calm. He knew what he was good at, and he understood even more clearly that people like them simply cannot bear the heavy responsibility of collecting intelligence for all mankind.
"So for the initial period of time, I will serve as the scientist until we find a more suitable person to take over." Duran volunteered.
Everyone doubted whether Duran was that knowledgeable.
In short, that's it for now. Lockon will temporarily serve as the helmsman and liaison officer, Sergey will be in charge of command, Graham will be the field mission captain, Soma will be the deputy captain, Shazi and Louise will be the team members, and Duran will be the team leader.
IT personnel.
The first mission they encountered was to go to Jupiter to investigate the abandoned exploration spacecraft.
The spacecraft has been floating in the universe for decades and has long since left the orbit of Jupiter.
"Jupiter exploration plan? Even two hundred years later, the content of the project is still confidential, but it seems that the first batch of people who went to Jupiter did not have good results. Some people are even still sleeping in that exploration spacecraft. I remember that
The name of the exploration spacecraft is 'Europa'."
Yes, it was on this spacecraft that the Celestial Aeolian completed the design and development of the solar furnace, and even the first solar furnace was born on the spacecraft. But one hundred and thirty years later, Europa
Its service life has long since ended, and now it is just floating aimlessly in the universe according to its inertia.
The universe distorted and then released light. The dense light was exactly the light that belonged to the spacecraft deck released from the Enterprise's window.
"It's really shocking. In just a blink of an eye, the Enterprise has completed a journey that took several years for the Earth ship to complete. Is this the era of curvature engines?" Sergey was beyond shocked. Such a flight has subverted their common sense.
.
"Let's prepare for light teleportation. Let's go directly inside the spacecraft." In fact, it is quantum teleportation, which quantizes people and teleports them to a distance: "Granham, Soma, Shaci, and Louise, the four of you, prepare the universe.
Accept, let’s take action.”
Sha Ci was a little scared. He had not yet been able to transform from his civilian state. Although he followed Louise, he was still afraid of unknown dangers.
"Sha Ci, I will protect you." Louise could feel the fear in Sha Ci's heart.
Graham raised his eyebrows, thinking that this boy is really worthless and needs his girlfriend to protect him. However, he does not hate Sha Ci. Sha Ci is just a civilian who has the courage to stand in the universe. It is amazing: "Young man, your job is to operate
Cosmic tool, so don’t worry, just stand behind us.”
"Yes, I understand." Although he was timid, fortunately, Sha Ci was very obedient and would never do anything random.
Small people use light to teleport into the room, which is used to transport small supplies. There is also a large teleporter in the hangar, which is used to transport Gundams.
The four people wore driving suits of different colors, all customized according to their own preferences.
"Everyone, please stand still. If you feel any discomfort during the first teleportation, don't spit it out. If the oxygen tube of the helmet is blocked, you will suffocate, so hold it in even if you feel uncomfortable." "The mission time is one.
Hours, stay in contact, if there is any danger, press the positioning system on your wrist, and I will teleport you back immediately." Duran manually controlled the teleportation.
The four of them had a straight face and understood that the most important thing was not to vomit.
"Start teleportation!" The four people turned into light and disappeared from the transparent teleportation room.
It was really disgusting, but except for Sha Ci, the other three people held it back. Sha Ci also thought of Du Lan's words and wanted to cover his mouth, but through the helmet, he vomited——
Sure enough, I couldn't hold it back and vomited it out.
The helmet was immediately covered with today's breakfast, and Sha Ci's helmet was filled with a peculiar smell.
"Boy, are you okay?" Graham asked with concern.
"It's okay." It just feels uncomfortable and smells bad.
They were already inside the spacecraft, and it was pitch dark. Fortunately, the space suit was decorated with luminous stripes, which was very fashionable, and the lights on the helmet could illuminate the space on the ship.
The ancient operating panel, covered entirely with cosmic dust, is indeed a human heritage.
"This is the bridge. I'm afraid it can't be used." Graham pressed a few buttons to show that the buttons were useless: "The energy furnace is designed to take two hundred years to dry up. All the data in the spacecraft must be retrieved.
At least activate the bridge. Captain Soma, you stay and prepare to activate the main computer, Shaci, you and I will restart the energy furnace." (To be continued.)
