Annihilation of the solar system

Chapter 374: Absolute Deterrence

The soldier who came to pick up Zhou Cheng was the same soldier who sent him here, but his attitude changed 180 degrees. Instead of being serious when he arrived, he started joking with Zhou Cheng enthusiastically.

"Professor Zhou, my name is Li Xiang, you can just call me Xiao Li."

"Hello, Xiao Li. You look very young." Zhou Cheng looked at the lively young man in front of him.

Xiao Li’s eyes were filled with youthful luster:

"I am 31 years old. I completed all my studies and training last year and became a Space Force pilot. But what makes me happiest is that I can finally leave home and have my own place to live."

"Do you have family here?" Zhou Cheng asked this question with curiosity and entanglement, which he himself thought was a bit rash.

Xiao Li didn't care, he said cheerfully:

"Of course, we are different from those on Earth. I have an older brother and two older sisters. My father is also an officer in the Space Force, but he is very opposed to me becoming a pilot. However, I usually can't win over my son, so I finally agreed.

.”

Zhou Cheng smiled awkwardly and said:

"Yes!"

"Professor Zhou, you must be a very important person. I have never seen or heard of people from the earth being able to enter the deterrent device since I was a child. It is an absolutely restricted area." Xiao Li said mysteriously.

asked.

Zhou Cheng smiled bitterly:

"What an important person? I'm just an old friend of your Marshal Lu."

Xiao Li looked unbelieving:

"If you don't want to tell me, forget it, but Marshal Lu has no friends."

Zhou Cheng frowned slightly:

"No friends? Even if Marshal Lu has a weird temper or aloof character, it's not like he hasn't made a single friend in more than three centuries."

Xiao Li's expression began to become solemn:

"It's not because of these. I heard my father say that since Marshal Lu took over the supreme command, he has never left the room you visited today. Except for work needs, he will not allow others to enter at will.

"

"Why is he like this?" Zhou Cheng asked puzzledly.

"Because the marshal has always held the starter of the deterrent device in his hand. This is a tradition that has been maintained since the first guardian left office." Xiao Li replied.

"After all this time, does someone still need to hold the starter in person?" Zhou Cheng asked again.

"There are now three systems providing support for on-site deterrence devices, the largest of which is the crisis detection system. It includes numerous warning, detection, analysis, prediction and other subsystems.

Its purpose is to discover and predict events that may threaten the deterrent device. All information will be prioritized and summarized in the room you just went to, but this system does not have the function of activating the deterrent device.

The other is the deterrent device integrity detection system. This system is small but very precise. It can detect abnormal deformation of the deterrent device at the molecular level within the nanosecond time range. Once the detected deformation, temperature, acceleration, magnetic field

In case of any abnormal situation, the deterrence device will be activated directly."

Zhou Cheng looked at Xiao Li anxiously and asked:

"Aren't you afraid that accidents, such as gamma bursts caused by astronomical phenomena, or unexpected situations may cause the deterrent device to activate accidentally?"

Xiao Li said calmly:

"There is a complete set of astronomical phenomenon detection equipment at the edge of the solar system. Any abnormal astronomical phenomena will be warned in advance. As for the unexpected situation you mentioned, our principle is that the three civilizations must completely ensure that such accidents will not happen.

Otherwise, everyone will have to bear the consequences of the accident, which is also part of the absolute deterrence.

"

Zhou Cheng was greatly shocked. On the one hand, he was pleased with the current situation of the deterrent device, and on the other hand, he was deeply moved by the selfless persistence of the Lunar Space Force soldiers.

"The third system is the start button in Marshal Lu's hand, right?" Zhou Cheng said solemnly.

Xiao Li nodded:

"Yes, the Marshal has the highest decision-making power. As long as he deems it necessary, he can activate the deterrent device through quantum communication at any time under any conditions. Any equipment may malfunction, but people with free will will not. This is also

Our last resort."

In shock, Zhou Cheng understood why Lu Yuanzhou never left that spacious room. The pressure he endured was unimaginable. Zhou Cheng knew very well that he was not capable of withstanding such pressure, and even allowed himself to stay in the room for more than three hundred years.

It cannot be done in the same room, no matter how spacious or luxurious that room is.

The two came to the hangar and put on their spacesuits before boarding the spacecraft. Xiao Li drove the spacecraft through the twilight line and arrived at the first lunar surface in the daytime. Since the flight altitude was much lower than when they came, Zhou Cheng saw

Hidden among the mountains and canyons, it is a lunar building that seems to be integrated with the moon's surface.

"In my time, the moon city was full of high-rise buildings, very similar to cities on Earth. Your buildings look like" Zhou Cheng couldn't think of a suitable metaphor for a moment.

"Cave dwelling, right?" Xiao Li added.

"Yes, yes! It sounds like it when you say it. Do you also study the history of our era?" Zhou Cheng asked in surprise.

"Of course, history is one of our most important courses." Xiao Li replied proudly.

Then, he pointed at the building that was speeding past him in the narrow cockpit:

"Don't look at it that these buildings seem to be scattered all over the moon. In fact, they are scattered very scattered. The total number of buildings is not as large as imagined. Counting a large number of industrial buildings and defense facilities, the space in the residential area is actually not large. I

When I lived at home, my room was only a few square meters and there were no windows."

"Why is it arranged like this?" Zhou Cheng asked puzzledly.

"Professor Zhou, please note that all buildings on the lunar surface have lunar coatings. We have no atmosphere, and very small meteorites can reach the ground. This can protect the buildings and block radiation.

Of course, another effect of this arrangement is that if war breaks out again, all buildings will not be destroyed at once, and we have learned a lesson in this regard."

Zhou Cheng's heart trembled, as the scene of Guanghan Palace Moon City being destroyed in the Doomsday War appeared in front of his eyes. Although he did not see it with his own eyes, he could imagine the scene of countless ice cubes destroying high-rise buildings like bullets shooting through tofu.

At this time, the spacecraft landed in a canyon. The valley was very spacious, and there were buildings deep into the moon rocks on the mountain walls on both sides. Xiao Li led Zhou Cheng to board a lunar rover next to it.

"The area around the deterrent device is an absolute no-fly zone, and our own aircraft are strictly prohibited from flying over it. We can only ride the lunar rover over there." Xiao Li said as he started the lunar rover.

After leaving the valley, there were no traces of any buildings on the mountain, and everything around it returned to the undeveloped, wild moon.

But when he looked at the ground, he was surprised to find countless tangled ruts on the path. At this moment, he saw not far away, a lunar rover larger than the one they were riding on.

Go in the same direction with them.

"Does the deterrence device need to be maintained very frequently?" Zhou Cheng asked, looking at the fast-moving lunar rover.

Xiao Li followed Zhou Cheng's gaze, smiled and shook his head:

"No, the deterrent device is very stable. Apart from upgrading the equipment, it requires very little maintenance." As he spoke, Xiao Li approached the lunar rover and said:

"Look at whether the person sitting in the opposite car is the same as yours.

They are about the same size."

Zhou Cheng took a closer look and found that it was as Xiao Li said. Not only that, he also saw childish faces behind the transparent glass.

"Are they all children?"

"Yes, they should be children in the primary education stage, fifteen or sixteen years old. Throughout our studies, there is a homework that must be completed every year. This is a tradition that started when the self-sustaining stability was completed on the lunar base."

Xiao Li replied.

"What kind of homework needs to be completed at the deterrent device? And with such a young child, aren't you afraid of causing accidents?" Zhou Cheng asked confused.

Xiao Li smiled calmly:

"Of course not, they will not enter the core area of ​​the deterrent device. As for what kind of course this is, you will see soon."
