Chen Xu woke up and glanced at the time habitually, it was seven ten in the morning.
"Today is the fifty-first day."
He said in his heart that the dream time has passed halfway. In the blink of an eye, it has been ten days since Yang Jinxia came to Shuguang.
Today is an important day. After washing up, he put on new clothes.
On the Dawn, some regulations are very restrictive, for example, those who live in the C-level area can only wear uniforms. In the b-level area, there will be more styles of uniforms. Only in the A-level area can you have the freedom to dress.
In fact, this regulation was originally intended to save resources and avoid building too many garment factories. Later, it became a way to show status.
Chen Xu was wearing a kind of standard casual clothes. He didn't have too many requirements on clothing, as long as he was comfortable.
After washing up, he walked out of the room. The breakfast in the dining room was ready, and there were soy milk and fried dough sticks on the table.
"How come there are these?" He was a little surprised that he could still eat soy milk and fried dough sticks on the spaceship.
Yang Jinxia was washing dishes in the kitchen, put the things down, hung the dishcloth back to its original position, walked out, and said with a smile, "As long as you think of a way, you can always do it."
Chen Xu was right when he thought about it. At the beginning of the construction of the Shuguang, production issues were considered, and the entire industrial chain was moved up, so that everything could be produced.
"Thank you." He sat down in his seat.
Yang Jinxia had already poured a bowl of soy milk, put it in front of him, sat down too, and said, "You are going to use the learning machine today, eat more."
Chen Xu thought of the sequelae after using the learning machine, and looked at the white soy milk in the bowl, and couldn't help feeling a little nauseous.
Seeing his strange expression, she asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm just a little nervous." Chen Xu explained, took a sip of soy milk, "The knowledge that the human brain can hold is limited. This time the interval is relatively short, and there is a possibility of failure."
Using a learning machine is not 100% successful. The higher the frequency of use, the lower the success rate. Like him, if he uses it three times in less than two months, the brain may be too burdened and cause a stress response. When the time comes, learn to stop it forcefully.
If this happens, it will cause relatively large damage to the brain, and the learning machine will not be able to be used in a short period of time, at least one year later.
Yang Jinxia said, "Since this is the case, it is better to postpone it for a while."
"No." Chen Xu shook his head and said, "I have a hunch that if you don't use it today, you probably won't have a chance in the future."
She was a little puzzled, "Why?"
Chen Xu looked at her and said, "Thinking about our previous experience, we always have a few days of stable life, and there will be accidents. Although the weather is calm now, I can feel that there is a danger that we don't know. Approaching."
Yang Jinxia held his hand, feeling that his nerves were a little tense, and said, "No matter what dangers you encounter, I will be by your side."
Chen Xu looked into her eyes for a while before saying, "I know."
After a while, Yang Jinxia withdrew his hand and said, "Eat, it will get cold later."
He nodded, took a deep-fried dough stick and ate it.
After breakfast, Chen Xu was about to go out. Just as he opened the door, he suddenly turned his head and said, "Otherwise, I'll take you back to your spaceship. There are robots there to protect you."
Yang Jinxia shook his head slowly but firmly, and said, "No, it's enough for you to protect me."
Chen Xu took a deep look at her and said without any further persuasion, "I'm leaving."
...
The Dawn has regulations that combat robots like s01 are not allowed to enter. Only in 2003, the system judges that there is no threat can come in. But it can only move within a fixed range and cannot leave at will.
Chen Xu couldn't do it even if he wanted to release those robots. Once Taichu judged that it was a robot invasion, the spaceship would enter the ultimate battle mode and use all means to destroy the enemy, including self-destruct.
As Chen Xu said just now, the dream is now halfway through, and it will soon approach the second node.
The last crisis, whether it was the cube or the alien hatched by the queen, was very dangerous, and luck was involved in being able to survive it successfully. The second node often encounters a bigger crisis, and he really doesn't have much confidence.
He had almost digested the knowledge instilled last time, and he couldn't wait to use the learning machine for the third time. Because he knew that time was running out.
He sat in the No. 0 transmission cabin and went to the study base.
The voice of Taichu sounded, "Are you sure you want to use the learning machine at this time?"
He said, "What I have already decided, I will not discuss it any more."
Ancestor said, "Well, good luck to you, then."
Chen Xu didn't speak any more, closed his eyes and rested his mind, trying to adjust his state to the best.
Ten minutes later, the study base arrived.
"Identity confirmation, respected acting captain, your study time this time is eight hours, and the mode is soothing. The corresponding credit points have been deducted from your account. I hope you enjoy your study."
Chen Xu lay down in the instrument again, closed his eyes, and soon fell into darkness.
...
At home, Yang Jinxia was sitting on the sofa, thinking, "He won't come back at noon, what should I eat?"
Suddenly, the light in the room flickered a few times and then dimmed.
"What's wrong?" She stood up with a dignified expression, and suddenly, the light returned to the room. It's like nothing happened.
But she remembered Chen Xu's words in the morning, and couldn't help sighing, "Could it be that you really didn't even have a few days of peace and security?"
At this time, a voice sounded, "Ma'am, there are some malfunctions at the power plant. I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused."
She raised her head and said, "Are you the one in the beginning?"
"Yes, ma'am."
She asked, "The power plant on the Dawn uses fusion to generate electricity, right?"
"Yes. Due to a lack of manpower for routine maintenance, there was a slight glitch in the plant's operating procedures, and today, it is closed..."
Before Taichu had finished speaking, the house suddenly shook violently, and amidst the bang bang bang bang, various things fell to the ground. Even Yang Jinxia couldn't stand still, and sat down on the sofa.
She grabbed the handrail and asked, "Is the situation serious?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sharp voice, "Level 1 alert..." The lights in the room instantly turned into flashing red lights, showing how critical the situation was.
She stood up from the sofa, pulled a rubber band from her wrist, tied up her hair, and asked, "Where's Chen Xu?"
Taichu said, "Still in the learning machine, the learning process cannot be interrupted. He must wait until the learning time is over before he can wake up."
"how long will it take?"
"Seven hours and thirty minutes."
"Can the Dawn last for that long?"
"The explosion/explosion of the power plant did not affect the most important areas"
Before Taichu's words were finished, there was another violent shock, and then, the whole room went dark. Its sound is also gone.
She sighed, "It's really unreliable. 2003."
Following her call, 2003 came out of the room, and a beam of light shone from the position of the eyes.
She walked to the wall, grabbed the handle, pressed and pulled, and pulled out a drawer, which contained a set of lightweight space suits.
She put on the space suit in twos and threes, put on the round transparent hood, and said, "Let's go, let's go find him."
...
When Chen Xu woke up, his head was a little dizzy, as if he had caught a cold, and he didn't even hear the reminder sound of the learning machine, so he crawled out of the machine and walked straight outside.
The study time was extended this time, but the most advanced strong learning machine was used, and the side effects were much smaller than before, and there was no nausea.
As soon as the door of the study base was opened, he saw the red light flashing in the passageway outside. He stared at it for a few seconds before realizing that something was coming. He walked out and shouted, "In the beginning, what happened?"
The voice of the beginning sounded, "An explosion occurred in the power plant, which damaged the surrounding communication base stations and caused a large-scale communication interruption of the Dawn..."
When Chen Xu heard this, his whole body became energetic immediately, and he said anxiously, "Then what are you waiting for, I'll fix it."
"That was seven hours and thirty minutes ago." Taichu continued, "After the communication was interrupted, it affected the operation of the other two power plants. A few minutes later, there was also an explosion/explosion. This time, a chain reaction occurred. …”
Chen Xu was stunned. During the eight hours he was on the learning machine, this kind of thing happened
"Just tell me, how serious is the loss of the spaceship?"
"The power system is almost paralyzed, and 90% of the power system is damaged..."
Chen Xu's heart sank when he heard the series of data reported by Taichu.
He finally understood what the test of the second level was. The spaceship had an unexpected malfunction, and all human beings worked together to repair the spaceship...
However, there are only him and Yang Jinxia on the Dawn, and there are 990 artificial humans who are being educated, and another 990 fetuses that have not yet been born in the incubation room.
What's the matter
Immediately, he thought of Yang Jinxia, interrupted it, and asked, "Where is my wife?"
Taichu said, "Still in the A-level residential area, three minutes ago, she sent a message through the space suit's communicator."
Without further ado, Chen Xu walked to the place where a mark was marked on the wall, and pressed his hand on it, the wall popped out, and there was a set of space suits inside.
After he put it on, he said, "Send me her location."
"Take care of yourself."
When Chen Xu heard what it said, he looked back at where the camera was, and said, "Take care too." Then, he walked out of the passage.
