Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng had already arranged their vacation after booking their tickets. For them, this is also a rare journey.
He grew up on his home planet when he was young, and came to Tianluo Star after getting married. They have never been to Tiandou Star. After all, it was the first stop for human interstellar immigration, and it had epoch-making significance for all mankind. They also wanted to see what the current situation was like on the planet that was first developed by humans.
"Mom, can we take the spaceship later?" Lan Xuanyu sat in the car, holding Nan Cheng's hand excitedly.
Nan Cheng looked at his son's big eyes, smiled, and said, "Silly boy, this is the sixth time you have asked your mother the same question. Yes, yes. We can take the spaceship later. . Then you can see the vastness of space."
"Oye, that's great," Lan Xuanyu exclaimed excitedly.
Lan Xiao turned around and glanced at his son fondly. As he grew older, Lan Xuanyu had now transformed from the super cute boy as a baby into a handsome boy. Especially his big eyes, which seemed to have gained a touch of purple in addition to their original black color as he grew older. Her eyes were so clear that they seemed to reflect the entire world, and her long eyelashes fluttered as she blinked. No matter who sees him, they will almost feel love for him immediately.
Finally, the soul guide speed car arrived at its destination, the aviation base in Ziluo City. They need to first take a soul guide plane from Ziluo City to Tianluo City, the capital of Tianluo Star, and then transfer to a spaceship from Tianluo City before they can go to Tiandou Star.
So far, only the capital Tianluo City has a spacecraft capable of traveling across space. And there aren’t many flights. All require reservations in advance.
Lan Xuanyu has already flown on the Soul Guide Plane. In the past, whenever his parents were on vacation, they would take him to other cities and tourist attractions in Tianluo Star. What he looks forward to most is the spaceship. For children of his generation, space is the place they yearn for most.
Three hours later, the soul guidance plane landed smoothly at the Tianluo City Aerospace Center. Take the shuttle bus, another half an hour later. They entered the core area of the vast space center.
The entire space center is decorated with white as the main tone. On the huge white metal wall, there is a wide large screen, and some pictures are being displayed on it.
"Wow mom, is that a space battleship?" Lan Xuanyu couldn't help but jump excitedly when he saw the picture.
Nan Cheng quickly bent down and made a silent gesture to him, "Shh, Xuanyu, please keep your voice down. You can't make loud noises in public areas. This is a sign of basic quality. Because we can't affect others."
"Well, well. Mom, I was wrong. Mom, is that a space battleship?" Lan Xuanyu asked extremely excitedly while lowering his voice.
Nan Cheng looked up at the big screen. On the big screen, with the endless starry sky in the background, silver-white warships were flying in space. There are hundreds of warships, some large and some small. The largest one was guarded by many other warships like a fortress.
"Yes. It's a battleship. Looking at the serial number on the battleship, this should be the newly completed space battle group of the Federation's Fourth Fleet." Lan Xiao answered his son's questions from the side.
"Dad, that's great. I want to drive a battleship when I grow up, okay?" Lan Xuanyu took Lan Xiao's hand and shook it, feeling indescribably excited.
Lan Xiao smiled slightly, raised his hand and touched his son's head, "It's not easy to drive a battleship. You need to study hard and get admitted to the battleship department when you are in a higher education institution." I want to ask, Which teenager has not had the dream of space? He was once young, and he once yearned to become a space battleship commander. However, it is more than just one in a million. To be able to board space and become a member of a battleship, the effort required cannot be described in words. Without more than twenty years of professional training and hard work, it is almost impossible to succeed.
The space fleet is the most advantageous weapon for human interstellar migration, and it is also the most important guarantee for human beings to complete interstellar migration. You know, it took mankind thousands of years to successfully establish four space fleets. Every space fleet is the most important asset of the Douluo Federation.
However, with the increase in the number of administrative stars under control and the advancement of human technology, the occupied administrative stars have more resources, and the subsequent construction of space fleets is obviously accelerating.
Humanity has even begun to try to build the first space transfer station in space. The specific location of this transfer station is only known to senior military officials, and it is named Shrek Space Fortress. To commemorate the outstanding contributions made by Shrek Academy, the first college of the Federation, to the Federation over tens of thousands of years.
At the same time as the Shrek Space Fortress, the fifth and sixth space fleets of the Federation began to be constructed. It is expected to be completely completed within fifty years.
Lan Xuanyu couldn't take his eyes away from the big screen for a long time. The battleships were so dazzling, especially the metal turrets on the battleships that shimmered with faint light. He seemed to have seen the spectacular scene of thousands of cannons firing. It's really too dazzling and beautiful.
"Let's go. We can't be late. Otherwise, we won't be able to take the spaceship." Nan Cheng tempted his son.
"OK."
A family of three went through the boating procedures. The procedures were a bit cumbersome, and I had to go through three security checks alone. Spacecraft are expensive to build. It is not that gangsters have never had the idea of spaceships in human history. Therefore, security checks are extremely strict.
After passing a series of checkpoints, we finally entered the inner area, and the next step was to wait.
Through the huge glass window, Lan Xuanyu saw, in the distance, a being that looked like a cannonball standing on the open plains.
"Yes, that is the spaceship we are going to board later." Lan Xiao took the lead in answering his son's questions without waiting for him to ask.
"It's great! It's so big." Lan Xuanyu's excitement continued.
Lan Xiao smiled and said, "The spaceship is composed of multiple parts, the most important of which are the spacecraft itself and the thruster when taking off. The thruster will send the spacecraft into space, break away, and then return on its own for reuse. And the spacecraft enters After entering space, we will cruise according to the established orbit until we reach our destination. Since there are wormholes for jumping, we are expected to fly to Tiandou Star for seven days. So, don’t be so excited now, space It’s very boring.”
"I like space, Dad. I'm not afraid of boredom." Lan Xuanyu's excitement will not diminish because of his father's words.
After boarding the ship and passing the last security check, the family of three finally boarded the spacecraft.
The cabins of spaceships are naturally divided into high, medium and low grades. In fact, it is impossible for ordinary working-class people to have the money to fly on a spaceship. Lan Xiao and Nan Cheng are already considered to be in the upper middle class, and this kind of space voyage once a year is enough to consume their savings.
Even so, they were only traveling in the lowest class cabin.
Each person has about one square meter of space. The space is long and vertical. It is a semi-reclining chair with metal fixing straps on both sides, but they are both separate. It is quite comfortable to sit on it.
Children's seats are different from adults' seats. Lan Xuanyu's cabin will be smaller, but it can lie flat. Right next to my parents. This kind of family combination is in the form of a package when buying tickets. Relatively speaking, it is more economical and affordable.
"Welcome aboard the Federal Space Agency spacecraft 7703. We hope that our company will bring you peace of mind and happiness during the long journey ahead. Below, we introduce some simple precautions, please be sure to follow them. "
A pleasant female voice sounded on the radio.
