To say that the capital is worthy of being the central city of China, the application of various new technologies is much faster than that of Peicheng.
The Beijing Academy of Sciences in Beijing has designed a brand-new engine powered by source molecules. It can be said that as long as it is on the surface of the earth, there will be no time to extinguish the flame. Of course, this engine is not affordable for ordinary groups to consume.
However, the Keel Corps has always been rich and powerful, and a large amount of recent income has come from the dedication of the Eating Ape Carving. It is not a problem to purchase a few engines for the Keel Corps.
There is no need for anyone to say Liu Hong's mechanical control. He took the initiative to modify several vehicles that were strengthened by Tang Xuhai.
When Fu Shiwu and the others left, they drove away half of the vehicles with new engines, while the remaining half of the engines, Liu Hong, will continue to be refitted.
It doesn't take long to change the engine, but considering the current road conditions, the entire vehicle needs a new shock absorption system.
Right now the roads are fine close to a large survival base, but the farther away from town the roads get worse. Driving fast is like doing a trampoline, and people who are bumpy can spit out their stomachs. And after strengthening the shock absorption system, the car will drive faster, and people will not be so uncomfortable.
The Jiuquan Satellite Center is not actually in Jiuquan, Province G, but in Province N, which is 400 kilometers away from here. Located in the hinterland of the Gobi Desert, the terrain is flat, sparsely populated, and has little rainfall throughout the year. Spring and autumn are short, winter and summer are long, and there are more than 300 sunny days throughout the year, which is very suitable for launching satellites. The reason why it was named Jiuquan at that time was because the place was too desolate, and Jiuquan was the closest well-known city to this place.
Because of the repeated launches of satellites and manned aircraft, this place was later named the Space City.
Of course, this place can't be found on the map, but Tang Xuhai and the others still got a detailed route map from Mi Le. Leaving the capital and heading northwestward all the way, the weather became cooler as we walked, and even the heat of early summer was blown away a lot.
The car was driving at an unprecedented speed after entering the apocalypse. Although it was still shaking, it was nothing compared to the previous bumps.
Wen Zhaoming also did not expect that the speed of the journey would be increased to such a level after the replacement of the new engine. If he continued like this, he would be able to reach the Aerospace City in a week.
This time, Miao Jia also accompanied him. With him avoiding the alien group in advance, a week later, the team arrived at the Aerospace City.
Because of the military power of Aerospace City, there are also a lot of survivors here. The base is not large and only medium in size, but the armed forces here are more complete than many large bases.
The group drove to the vicinity of Aerospace City and was stopped by Luka, who was stationed by soldiers.
The soldiers who stopped them politely asked them to show their documents, but Tang Xuhai directly showed him the red-headed document. After reading the document, the soldier's face became solemn, and he opened the railing very neatly to let him go.
The convoy continued to drive forward, and at a fork in the road, a military vehicle approached. An officer waved to them and motioned them to follow the vehicle and continue on.
On both sides of the fork, one leads to the medium base, and the other leads to the launch center.
The launch center was very close to the base, but was cut off by a wall. People from the keel can see that compared to the survival base, the security on the launch center is stronger.
Fu Shiwu stared at the launch center that was getting closer and closer. The tall launch pad stood between the sky and the earth, which was particularly shocking. Fu Shiwu was in high spirits. It was not that he had never seen a satellite launch on TV before, but when he was in front of the launch pad, he could experience the incredible feeling, which was completely different from watching it in front of the TV.
The convoy drove directly along the road of the launch center to the front of the scientific research building. Fu Shiwu opened the car door and got out.
The scientific research building is completely the size of a small town. There are residential areas and small buildings scattered on both sides of the road. Those small buildings looked old, with signs of weathering on the walls.
"Welcome to the satellite center." A soldier with two stars on one shoulder, with a typical national character face, full of uprightness, and appeared not to be angry and arrogant walked towards them.
Fu Shiwu was surprised to find that although this man looked very sturdy, his temples had a little hoarfrost, and he looked like he was in his fifties.
Since the opening of the sky, the number of people who are getting older has decreased dramatically, and those who are in their fifties are healthy, and those who have survived the infection of the source molecule are even rarer. Fu Shiwu couldn't help but feel awe in his heart.
After the two sides introduced each other, the team members under Keonggu were taken to rest, and the three leaders followed the general named Nie Changshan to the highest building on the most central floor.
While walking, General Nie also said: "We received the notice of your coming a few days ago. We are all looking forward to it, especially the comrades of the project team are looking forward to it."
Fu Shiwu was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but glance at Wen Zhaoming and Tang Xuhai.
I don't understand why the satellite center is so looking forward to their arrival. Even having the generals come forward to receive them is too high a standard. A heavy feeling came up from Fu Shiwu's heart unknowingly.
Nie Changshan didn't have long eyes behind him, so he didn't know their doubts. While introducing them to the history of the building and the results of the launch center, a few people came to a large conference room.
Nie Changshan stopped, turned around and glanced at Fu Shiwu, and said, "Please come in." After that, Nie Changshan pushed open the door of the conference room and let Fu Shiwu go in first.
This treatment made Fu Shiwu panic.
He looked at Nie Changshan with his hands and feet bound, and Nie Changshan gestured at him again with kindness in his majesty. Fu Shiwu bit the bullet and walked in.
The conference room was already full of people, and when they saw him coming in, they all stood up with bright eyes.
A middle-aged man in his 40s pushed his glasses and knocked down the chair excitedly: "Shi Wu! It's really you!!"
A woman behind him who was about the same age as him was also very excited, her eyes turned red: "It's been more than 20 years! I didn't expect the day to actually see you!"
Except for the two older ones, the rest are younger, but the youngest also looks in his early thirties.
It may also be young, these people quickly control their emotions. With a grin at the corner of his mouth, he said, "Sit down, come and sit down!"
Fu Shiwu stood there puzzled, and looked around on the faces of these people, but there was no one he knew in his memory. These people are much older than him, and they are most likely scientists at the institute.
Fu Shiwu said, "Fu... Teacher Chunhai, are you not here?"
Fu Chunhai said the name, and the meeting room fell silent in vain. The woman in her forties choked and said, "Director Fu is gone."
Fu Shiwu's head was blank for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Tang Xuhai had already pushed him into the chair beside the round conference table.
Fu Shiwu took a deep breath and tried to calmly say, "How did she... die?"
The woman in her 40s wiped her tears, looked at him and said, "Before the first alien wave attacked, the entire institute was completely isolated from the world, so we didn't absorb many source molecules and didn't trigger immunity. So when the aliens climbed in through the ventilation pipes and we retreated, we were forced to be exposed to the pollution of the source molecules. Director Fu did not survive... "
Fu Shiwu lowered his shoulders in despair. How could Fu Chunhai be in his early 60s this year, why did he think she could get away with it
The bodies of these senior scientists cannot be as strong as Nie Changshan.
Wen Zhaoming asked, "Then who is the person in charge of the research institute now?"
The middle-aged man in his forties who spoke first said, "It's me, my name is Ren Jianqi."
Wen Zhaoming said, "Director?"
Ren Jianqi nodded and said, "Exactly. Let me introduce you. Shi Wu, this is Wei Lan, the deputy director. This is the project director..." Ren Jianqi introduced Fu Shiwu one by one, and Fu Shiwu was in a trance. Listen, except for the two directors, the others just passed it through their minds and didn't remember them at all.
After Ren Jianqi had introduced all the people, Tang Xuhai shook him gently, and Fu Shiwu's eyes returned to focus.
He looked up at Ren Jianqi and said, "By the way, all the people in the institute are here?"
Ren Jianqi didn't understand what he meant for a while, and looked back to see that there were less than twenty people in the conference room, and said sadly: "Yes, it turns out that there are hundreds of scientists in our institute, and most of the old experts are infected with the source. The molecules later fell ill and died. Some of them encountered supernatural creatures and were hunted and killed on the way to Jiuquan."
"What?" Tang Xuhai said aloud, "Have you met creatures with abilities."
Ren Jianqi said: "Yes, at that time we encountered a group of mutant wolves, and one of the wolf kings had supernatural abilities. We paid a great price and sacrificed a lot of warriors before we got rid of it."
Wen Zhaoming frowned. From N province to G province is the route for the wolves to move back, and this group of people is unlucky enough.
Tang Xuhai asked in detail, the wolf pack was not the pack that Fu Shiwu and the others encountered.
Fu Shiwu summoned the courage and asked, "Can you tell me where are the people who were with me back then? I actually came here this time to meet them."
Ren Jianqi paused for a moment, he hesitated and looked back at Wei Lan, who nodded at him. Ren Jianqicai said sadly: "Most of the members of the Chongmingbirds have died."
"What?!" Fu Shiwu was shocked and said in a voiceless voice, "Isn't that impossible?! Ordinary people in other troops can live well, all of them are superpowers, how could they have sacrificed?!"
Wei Lan took a breath and said, "They were all killed by aliens during their missions."
Fu Shiwu was shocked, angry and puzzled, and he couldn't believe it was true.
Wen Zhaoming also felt that there were too many strange things in it, and said in a very bad tone: "What is the mission that can make these existences beyond ordinary people sacrifice?!"
Ren Jianqi and Wei Lan didn't know where to start. At this time, Nie Changshan suddenly said, "Let me tell you."
Fu Shiwu's eyes turned to stare at him.
Nie Changshan sighed: "They are all heroes, all of them are good."
Fu Shiwu looked at him anxiously, patiently waiting for Nie Changshan to finish his sigh. Nie Changshan opened his mouth and said, "These words will start after the curtain of the sky is opened."
It turned out that the appearance of the red sky phenomenon attracted the attention of various countries, and the countries with relatively developed science and technology all invested human and material resources to start research. In particular, several countries with well-developed space satellite systems moved the satellites to Hongxia's position for the first time to conduct detailed observations.
At that time, Hongxia was just a face, but I couldn't see its origin, and I couldn't study how it appeared. This aroused the vigilance of various countries, and all secretly let their respective armies enter the alert. At that time, they all wondered if any country had come up with the technology.
A week later, the sky was opened for the first time, and the synchronized satellites were all torn to shreds by the force of that instant impact. The International Space Station, which was conducting research in that area, also turned into dust and disappeared into the universe. Suddenly, all countries panicked. .
The aliens dropped from the sky were first discovered by observation telescopes on Earth. Governments immediately launched military operations when the population did not respond. It's just that because the aliens are scattered too far, the limited air force can't sweep away the hundreds of thousands of aliens scattered throughout China.
An endless stream of aliens were dropped, and the country adjusted its strategy immediately, trying to attack the sky and close it. But there is no way for the plane to escape the atmosphere at all, and the military satellite loaded with orbital guns will be smashed by the energy escaping as long as it is close to the sky, and it will be too late to launch.
If you are far away, you will not be able to attack, and if you are close, you will be torn apart. So that the leaders of various countries can only watch the aliens continue to descend from the sky.
The aliens grow every night, more and more, more and more, to the point where even the military powers are overwhelmed.
What ordinary people can see is only the aliens that fall in their sight every day, and the satellite pictures sent back from hiding on the edge of the sky are despairing alien tides like a vast ocean!
In order not to cause people's panic and despair, these news were suppressed by the informed high-level press.
The leaders of these countries have always known that the most harmful thing is not the aliens that land on the ground, but the sky that keeps throwing aliens!
The aerospace departments of various countries convened an online meeting for the first time, led by country A, which has the most experience in flying, to mobilize the immediate launch of manned aircraft, and send scientists to fly to the second International Space Station, which has not yet been completed by Huaxia Launch.
After anxiously waiting, scientists from country A successfully docked with the Second International Space Station and started a series of scientific research.
After analysis, it was found that the existing materials on earth were simply impossible to ensure that people could safely pass through the canopy, reach the end of the canopy and then close it.
It was at this time that power users began to appear, and the appearance of various powers made people see hope.
Scientists from the space agency discovered earlier than Ouyang Cheng that the metal material that incorporates supernatural powers is more malleable, and they kept rushing to work one after another. Two months later, the Jiuquan Satellite Center launched a spacecraft with a new shell made of new materials.
This time, the aircraft successfully entered the canopy, but the energy in the canopy continued to burn the outer shell. Before reaching the end of the canopy, the entire aircraft was burned.
A few days later, country A's aircraft with the same modified casing was launched. What's better than Huaxia is that they flew for a while longer.
Both countries continued to work on improving the casing. Fortunately, every time Huaxia completes an aerospace project, it prepares two aircraft, and if there is a failure, the other one can be used. So the stock is enough, just replace the shell and you can go to the sky.
Without people noticing at all, both countries are rushing to progress at a rate of cash burn every day.
One by one, the satellites were sent to the sky. The time is tight, and there is simply no room for humans to test the flight distance again and again. I just hope that I can have a lucky hit and fly directly to the end of the sky to pass back the situation at the end of the sky.
Finally, once, Huaxia's satellite passed through the bizarre sky and came to a world completely different from the earth!
While making people cheer, it was also confirmed that the sky is actually a channel. As long as it is closed, the aliens will no longer be able to come to the earth.
Then the source molecules were found to be able to be used as a new type of energy, and this situation of concerted efforts broke. Not only in China, but also in other countries, some advocate the use of new energy to develop new weapons to fight aliens, leaving this channel to grab the endless supply the source molecule.
People in country A who agreed not to close the sky, disregarded the opposition of the other party and launched a manned satellite to conduct scientific research. However, the last picture returned was a picture of high-level aliens running rampant and fiercely pounced on the astronauts.
For a while, the people from country A who agreed not to close the sky were suppressed, and the people on the other side went through careful preparations and sent their genetic warriors named Battle Soul.
At this time, Huaxia also sent the corresponding genetic warriors named Chongmingbird to the other side of the sky.
The people who were sent up this time were actually not Zhou Qi and number 7, but also friends named Li Shiyi who numbered 11 and Zheng Nianyi who numbered 21 and Fu Shiwu.
But since Fu Shiwu was rejected and isolated, he has completely confronted Zhou Qi, Li Shiyi, and Zheng Nianyi against other digital warriors.
Because Huaxia wants to build its own International Space Station, Huaxia has also built new manned spacecraft and cargo spacecraft, the same two. This time, it is not just satellites to send people up, but also to carry certain equipment for them, after careful preparation. Twelve members of the first team of Huaxia Chongming Birds were sent from Jiuquan in two spaceships.
However, this confident action was poured cold water on the head.
People from China and Country A didn't live long.
According to the last information transmitted from the spacecraft, the aliens on the other side of the sky are more evolved than those on the earth! They met not only the level 6 aliens responsible for production, but even the level 7 aliens at the queen level!
These superpowers with the highest force value on earth are simply vulnerable in front of seventh-level aliens.
And the team in country A didn't end well either. The creatures on the side of the sky were basically eaten up by the aliens. They used to be like lambs that fell into the wolves, and were swallowed by the aliens that chased them endlessly. .
Speaking of which, Fu Shiwu said in an unsteady voice: "Then... What about Zhou Qi and the others? Did you let them go even though you knew they were going to die?!"
In the face of Fu Shiwu's almost accusatory tone, Nie Changshan continued unwaveringly: "Yes. They were also sent there."
Fu Shiwu's eyes stared at him sharply, almost hatred. Nie Changshan said: "The situation on the other side has strengthened our determination. The sky curtain must be closed! The channel at the beginning of the sky curtain cannot pass through too powerful abilities, and the sky curtain channel seems to have some restrictions. The next time it is closed and restarted, the upper limit of the channel capacity is getting bigger and bigger! It was 7 days at first, then 7 weeks, and then 7 months. Who knows, after 7 years, the queen-level alien will be directly to Earth?!"
Fu Shiwu paused and closed his eyes in pain. Although he felt uncomfortable in his heart, he understood intellectually that what Nie Changshan said was correct. However, the emotional grief could not be suppressed.
He just recalled the memories that belonged to them! When we were young, we played happily together. When we grew up, we took advantage of the task to find time to sneak up to see him, and bought a cake to celebrate his birthday. Because he was bullied, he came to support him... Fu Shiwu's nose is sour , the eye circles quickly turned red. He hasn't been able to see them again, how can they be separated forever? !
At this time, Tang Xuhai's voice did not fluctuate and said: "So, you have a secret mission to call high-level ability users, just to go to the other side of the sky to close this channel?"
Fu Shiwu was startled, turned his head and stared at the expressionless Tang Xuhai with wide eyes.
Nie Changshan nodded directly and said, "Yes. This task is generally not told to the participants before departure, but because Fu Shiwu was one of the members of the research institute, we can disclose it to you in advance."
Wen Zhaoming suppressed the shock in his heart and couldn't help showing a sarcastic smile: "Haha~ I still have to thank you for this? You really look up to us, so you are not afraid that we will leak it out?"
Nie Changshan sat there with majesty, and said with certainty, "You won't. It won't do any good to leak this matter apart from creating panic."
Tang Xuhai sneered at the corners of his mouth and said, "I said why you would be so happy to see us coming here. Although it has not been tested, you should know that I am at the sixth level now. Shi Wu and Lao Wen both It's a fifth-level ability user." Tang Xuhai looked at Nie Changshan sharply: "You are so sure that we will agree? Under the circumstances of knowing that it is to die!"
Nie Changshan looked at him confidently, then turned to look at Fu Shiwu and said, "I'm not sure. But I guess you should think about it. Because, someone still came back alive."
In an instant, the three of them all widened their eyes and opened their mouths inconceivably.
"Who?!" Fu Shiwu asked.
"Zhou Qi." Nie Changshan said calmly.
Fu Shiwu suddenly stood up.
