Chapter 118 Don’t Play with Fire
[Damn it, you dare to attack me, human expedition team, you are dead. ]
It must be said that it was a miracle that the positron cannon could hit the target with one shot, which caused the Silver Mist consciousness to send another angry message.
Although the shot went straight through, it seemed that the Silver Mist was not seriously damaged. During the observation, people found that the Silver Mist moved slightly and then patched up the big hole.
"Positron cannon recharged and prepared, target correction parameters XXX, YYY, ZZZ, correction of shooting parameters. Hope steering engine parameters correction 12.7"
It doesn't matter if you can't kill, just treat it as a practice. Anyway, the distance is getting farther and farther now, so there is no need to worry about Silver Mist coming up.
However, just when everyone in the bridge was thinking this, an extremely nervous voice suddenly shouted.
"Commander Yue, another piece of silver mist has been detected, the coordinates are 7739, 0689, 336, and the speed is very fast. We are calculating its flight trajectory."
With just one sentence, the atmosphere in the bridge dropped to below freezing. The joy of hitting the silver mist with the first shot disappeared all at once, as if the air had frozen.
"What!?" Yue Yuan was stunned and shouted quickly: "Switch the information to the big screen and evaluate it immediately, quickly. The computing power of the 'Light of the Sky' fully cooperates with the orbital trajectory calculation! Cancel the second round of positron cannon attack."
As soon as the voice fell, the big screen flashed and turned into a dynamic map of the Ross 154 star system.
On the map, a large barrel-shaped icon represents the Hope. There is a solid line behind the Hope and a dotted line in front of it. It is also marked with parameters such as relative speed, acceleration, and angle of the ecliptic plane.
From the picture, the Hope is now flying out of the star system with an angle of 7° with the ecliptic plane of the Ross 154 star, drawing an arc clockwise.
The cloud-like icon composed of several small red spots behind the Hope is the silver mist consciousness that has been chasing, and various dynamic parameters are also displayed on it.
It is clear at a glance.
Originally, there were only these two icons on the map, and a large piece of silver mist far behind, but now, as if the radar has been refreshed, another piece of silver mist has been scanned on the other side.
From the detected data, this piece of silver mist is larger than the one behind that can no longer catch up with the Hope, and it may not be just one consciousness.
"General Yue, I have calculated that this batch of silver mist has quietly arrived at the orbit of Ross 154-6 planet at some point, using the planet's magnetic field to accelerate, and is now intercepting our route at a very fast speed."
As a staff member quickly answered, the data on the dynamic map was also updated.
Yue Yuan hurriedly looked up and found that like the Hope, the large piece of silver mist had already displayed various dynamic parameters such as acceleration, speed, navigation trajectory, orbital deflection, etc.
"General Yue, we've been tricked. The silver mist should be using that piece of silver mist as bait to let us relax our vigilance. In secret, it should be orbiting and accelerating from the planet Ross 154-6 many times!"
"Fuck! Damn, this piece of silver mist is faster than us. The calculation results show that in one hour and fifteen minutes, it will meet us at the coordinates XXX, YYY, ZZZ ahead of us!"
"This, what should I do!"
Listening to the reports and shouts, Yue Yuan's brows were wrinkled into a "Chuan" character. "What should I do?" He asked himself in his heart.
He now regretted his actions of attacking the silver mist behind him. If he had known earlier, he would have accelerated directly. If he had escaped at full speed at the beginning, even if this other piece of silver mist appeared, there should be no such thing.
I shouldn't have talked so much nonsense with this silver mist, and I shouldn't have done any positron cannon shooting. Yue Yuan regretted it in his heart. From the data, he could see that if he didn't adjust his posture and shoot, the speed of the Hope would not drop.
Having been deceived by the silver mist consciousness once, why didn't he learn his lesson and still hesitate here.
Yes, after the orbital hydrogen bomb array killed a large area of silver fog and calculated that the silver fog could not catch up, Yue Yuan and everyone in the bridge forgot that the other party was a third-level civilization creation.
Although it was just a miner, its technological content was also an existence that humans looked up to.
Such a dangerous thing, humans actually ran and provoked it leisurely, but they didn’t know that this high-level existence also had some means that humans didn’t know.
Yue Yuan instantly thought that when the Hope was pushed out of Ross 154-7 orbit by the fusion thruster, the silver fog that came to space at that time had discovered that humans had controllable nuclear fusion technology.
But the silver fog did not make a statement, nor did it directly say that it was deceived by humans. Instead, it played the trick and let a piece of silver fog chase to attract human attention, and another large piece quietly detoured to Ross 154-6 to use the planet to accelerate multiple orbits.
Fuck
Thinking of this, even Yue Yuan, who usually doesn’t swear, couldn’t help but burst out.
If I had known that Silver Mist was a deceiving consciousness, I should have thought that there might be traps everywhere in his words and actions.
But I was still careless.
[Human expedition team, stop now, I have something to tell you. ] At this time, Silver Mist, who was gradually moving away from the Hope, sent another message.
What the hell!
Yue Yuan ignored it, and said solemnly in the bridge: "Can the Hope speed up again?"
"Yes!" The scientific officer immediately gave a positive answer, and said it very straightforwardly, and then the most feared "but" still came: "But, the current acceleration of Hope is already the limit of ordinary humans. If the thrust is increased, the spacecraft can bear it, but humans can't bear it!"
"How much redundancy does Hope have in thrust?" Yue Yuan asked again.
"About 82G, the thrust of the nuclear fusion propulsion system is very strong, Yue Shuai, but we humans can't bear it." This time it was the head of the engine group who answered.
Humans are so fragile.
Obviously, controlled nuclear fusion has been achieved, and technology has reached that level, but because of their own fragile flesh, they can't make full use of technology.
In fact, after the realization of controlled nuclear fusion, humans have discovered this problem, so Xu Zhenyi and Yi Kai discussed the acceleration buffer and human body enhancement, but these are still in the conceptual stage.
"Playing with fire will only lead to self-destruction!" Yue Yuan suddenly felt bitter in his heart. He was actually playing with fire with a civilization two levels higher than humans.
"Can we change the route of the Hope to avoid the interception of the silver mist?" Yue Yuan thought for 1 second and immediately shouted to the scientific officer.
"Impossible. At that location, the silver mist can also use the large magnetic field of Ross 154 and the two large planets to correct the route." The scientific officer answered while constantly processing various data parameters: "Moreover, once the route is changed, we must adjust our attitude. In this way, the speed of the Hope will be reduced again. At that time, we don't have to wait for an hour and fifteen minutes for the silver mist to catch up with us."
