Chapter 111: The Lingering Ghost

The flashing bright spots on the screen represent the location of the silver haze, and the background map of the entire screen is a panoramic view of the Ross 154 star system.

Yue Yuan saw that the silver haze bright spot representing human detection was approaching Ross 154-5, a large gaseous planet that was almost as big as the main sequence star, at an increasingly faster speed.

"Gravity slingshot? No, Silver Mist's mass is so small, it shouldn't be used as a gravity slingshot." Yue Yuan instantly dismissed the term that came to his mind.

"It seems that the magnetic field of Ross 154-5 is used for acceleration!" The technician quickly input various parameters while calculating through the 'Light of the Milky Way'.

"It doesn't seem to be, it is." Another voice sounded, it was the science officer at one of the positions of the circular console. She stared at the computer screen in front of her: "Silver Mist is using Ross 154-5 to accelerate rapidly, microscopically in space. In a gravity environment, it can travel at will. According to the data, as long as it is not captured by the gravity of the planet, it can reach anywhere in the star system.

Calculated, it takes eight hours and eighteen minutes. After eight hours and eighteen minutes, this silver mist will reach Ross 154-7. Yue Shuai, we have to speed up. "

I don’t know anyone who holds the position of scientific officer on the bridge of the Hope. The person speaking now is from the military system, so Yue Yuan is called Yue Shuai.

"Notify all members of the Hope that the Hope is preparing to enter the re-acceleration phase, so that everyone is prepared to prevent a sudden increase in gravitational acceleration. There is a countdown of three minutes." Yue Yuan did not hesitate and immediately ordered the correspondent to conduct interviews with all members of the Hope. emergency broadcast.

We had known before that silver mist would use magnetic fields to fly, but we didn't expect that silver mist would become even more dangerous in space.

At this moment, Yue Yuan realized that humans seemed to have released a demon.

"Chief Commander, according to the current data, we will fly directly outside the galaxy, because the magnetic field of the star system becomes weaker the farther out, and the silver haze should not be able to catch up with us."

"Should?" Yue Yuan was somewhat dissatisfied with this choice of words.

The science officer immediately replied: "The final speed of the Silver Mist's acceleration using the Ross 154-5 magnetic field has been calculated. If it does not continue," then its closest distance to us in the future will be three million kilometers. Further on, our speed exceeded it, and then the distance became farther and farther away, and finally we lost it. "

"Is it possible that it will continue to accelerate?"

"It's impossible. We have already taken the magnetic field of Ross 154-7 into consideration. Even if it finally uses the magnetic field of Ross 154-7 to accelerate again, it will not be able to catch up with us. And the Ross 154-6 planet is on the other side of the main sequence star. On the other hand, Silver Mist has no way to utilize its strong magnetic field.”

call!

Hearing this, Yue Yuan let out a long breath.

It was really thrilling. In fact, after the silver mist appeared again, Yue Yuan thought about blowing up the surface of the planet Ross 154-7 and the factories and bases on its satellites, but he was really disturbed by the lingering silver mist. Afraid, so the first reaction was to order the Hope to be activated and flee.

Unexpectedly, just because of this action, the life of the Hope was saved.

Yue Yuan also understood the data displayed on the big screen in front of him. If he had hesitated to blow up the base and factory first, the Hope would definitely be overtaken by Silver Mist during the acceleration phase.

Sure enough, hesitation leads to defeat.

Fortunately, Silver Mist Consciousness probably doesn't know the true technical level of human beings yet, otherwise it wouldn't have stated its purpose so blatantly based on its telecom fraud face.

Thinking of this, Yue Yuan turned around and walked back to the captain's seat, then pressed the button on the right side of the seat, extended the acceleration buffer protection device from the back of the seat, and fixed himself on the chair, ready for the Hope to accelerate again.

After completing all these actions, he asked the "Light of the Milky Way" to translate and send the message to the Silver Mist consciousness. He brewed his emotions for a while, and then said in a very helpless and helpless tone: "Hey, We hate you very much, Silver Mist consciousness, but as you said, we can’t run away and regret it, we shouldn’t have responded to you in the first place.”

After knowing that it was the nanorobot consciousness that was behind it, Yue Yuan and other experts put it together and decided to translate the nanorobot consciousness into the silver mist consciousness.

"But there is no regret medicine in the world. We know we are going to die, but before we die, we still have some very curious questions. I wonder if you are willing to answer them?"

Without waiting for a reply after sending the letter, Yue Yuan directly said that he was a question that all human scientists were curious about: "It's like this, since your purpose is to escape from trouble, why did you dismantle the landing craft we used for the first time? What about dropping it? We were thinking, wouldn’t it be better if you just used those transport boats?”

As the silver mist gets closer, the replies become shorter and shorter.

[Haha, why should I tell you. 】

Silver Mist's conscious body's answer was just this sentence. It was very brief. It was regarded as a refusal to answer. It was completely different from the previous answer.

When this news was transmitted back to the Hope, the large screen in front of Yue Yuan immediately changed from displaying a single screen to a bunch of split screens.

Then, the portraits of scientists, sociologists, and experts in various fields lit up on the split screen.

Because the Nozomi is speeding up again, everyone is now using seat belts to secure themselves firmly on it to avoid being hurt by being thrown away.

Seeing this situation, Yue Yuan not only remembered the idea of ​​an acceleration buffer mentioned by Xu Zhenyi, which was the deep-sea acceleration liquid he learned from novels when he was a child. If there is such a liquid, then when the Hope is restarted, the nuclear fusion engine can be pushed to the maximum immediately, without having to consider the acceleration limit of the human body as it does now.

Humans do not have such an imaginary liquid at all now.

Yue Yuan remembered that Xu Zhenyi, the leader in the field of high-tech materials, had discussed this idea with Yi Kai, who was engaged in life sciences, but was sneered at by Yi Kai.

Yi Kai believed that it was a waste of time to make such a buffer, and it would be more cost-effective to think about how to strengthen the human body itself.

But Xu Zhenyi insisted that this acceleration buffer was achievable. He used the example of humans coming out of the ocean to convince Yi Kai, but Yi Kai still insisted on his own opinion.

The two of them argued for a whole afternoon, and in the end, no one could convince the other.

"General, although the Silver Mist Consciousness did not tell us, it did not say it, but it was no different from saying it." At this time, a social researcher on the split screen interrupted Yue Yuan's thoughts.

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Yue Yuan's eyes refocused on the split screen and he asked inquiringly. He connected all the scholars to the big screen in order to work together to analyze the intentions of the Silver Mist Consciousness. After all, the wisdom of one person is bound to miss something.
