"Still unable to contact the ground and the space station?"

Some fingers tapped lightly on the table, one of them asked.

The house they were in was all gray and white, as if it had been pulled out from some kind of giant metal, with a floor-to-ceiling window with a filter membrane on one side, and the mottled and barren lunar surface was in sight.

If you look far away, you can see the endless darkness beyond the horizon, and a certain white celestial body pours out a dazzling brilliance.

Brightness and darkness, two contradictory senses blend perfectly in space.

"According to the scene observed by the telescope, a full-scale war is taking place on the surface of the Blue Star, and the command center may have no time to take care of us."

someone said.

Alexei, the commander from Xiong Country, pondered for a moment, and then knocked on the table: "Dear colleagues, I have a very bad information here. 35

Finding that everyone was looking at him, he continued:

"According to the information from the Lunar Dark Side Observatory, the orbit of the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter has changed abnormally."

"Because the observation window is limited in time, we don't know more specifically."

Those who can work at the moon base are not low-educated, even if they are not astronomy majors, they have also trained the corresponding knowledge.

"98.5% of the asteroids in the solar system are concentrated in this area, and they are running in disorder now. As long as a few larger ones collide with the blue star, they are equivalent to tens of millions of tons, or even 100 million tons of nuclear weapons.

"Even the communication on the ground has been interrupted, and its high-end equipment may be even worse. If it is attacked by a meteorite unprepared, the consequences may be unimaginable."

Commander Alexei agreed: "This is the reason, so we have to find a way to notify the ground."

The rest looked at him: "Do you have a plan for 577?"

After looking around the faces of everyone, Alexei said: "My idea is very primitive, since long-distance communication has failed, then we will use human flesh to send messages.

"In other words, we need a few 'postmen' to deliver the intelligence.""

"Because the dark side observatory only sees a very narrow part of the asteroid belt, and we don't know what the status quo is on a larger scale, we can only use bottom-line thinking and plan according to the worst-case scenario.

"As a result, the delivery of letters must race against time!"

Seeing that everyone around him nodded, Alexie unbuckled his seat belt and stood up, holding the edge of the metal table with both hands, keeping himself in a "stand straight" posture.

"The mainstream spaceships in the base are all electric Hall thrusters driven by fusion reactors. Although the battery life is extremely long and the cost is low, the thrust is too small, and it has to accelerate for a long time, which is a waste of time.

"In order to be in a hurry, we have to use the only remaining chemical fuel to propel the spacecraft, let it accelerate and decelerate quickly, and reach the Blue Star in the shortest time.

Someone was enlightened, and after calculating the data quickly in his mind, he quickly added:

"Today's spaceships are all used for space navigation, and their structures cannot withstand the gravity of Blue Star, so they have to dock at the port of the space station and transfer to a dedicated lift shuttle to the surface."

"If you leave in half an hour, the space station can be right in orbit.

"We need to identify the courier as soon as possible.

Alexey looked at everyone: "Who is willing to carry out this mission? I have to point out that after the loss of contact, no one knows how the space station is.

Fang Zhen, one of the original crew members of the United One and now the deputy of the base, the Yan Kingdom astronaut Fang Zhen raised his hand without hesitation: "Leave the task of leading the team to me. 35

Spaceships of sizes unrelated to aerodynamics travel in space.

Two rocket-like structures are fixed on the outside, but the tail is facing the front of the hull. It originally had two rockets, which were used for acceleration during the launch phase, and were thrown away after running out of fuel.

Because under the gravitational force of the blue star, the spacecraft is much faster than going from the surface to the moon.

"Arrived at the deceleration stage, start the recoil rocket." Looking at the images and data displayed on the dashboard, Fang Zhen ordered.

The driver pushed the joystick forward, and the reverse rocket emitted a little red light, and then a surging blue flame suddenly rushed out, providing a strong deceleration force.

After a period of deceleration, the space station with four giant "wings" and four "long feet" appeared in front of the blue planet background.

To be more precise, this is actually a star port.

The four wings are actually solar panels. Although it has a fusion power station, no one will dislike too much energy in space.

As for the four long legs, it is a pair of ports, located on both sides of the space station. Vehicles to and from the Blue Star are parked on one side, and those to and from the Moon are parked on the other side.

Fang Zhen picked up the microphone on the console:

"Here is the 'Firebird' spacecraft, call the Starport Tower, and request to park."

After waiting for a while, all he got was silence, and no one responded to him from the huge space station.

Is the communication blocked, or... Fang Zhen frowned and said to the driver: "This distance should be enough, turn on the external indicator light, and send an intuitive light signal (ccdf) number to Xinggang.

The latter did so immediately.

This action triggered the intelligent program of Star Harbor. The indicator light on a vacant berth recently turned green, and the giant robotic arm also opened like a blocker facing downwards.

At the same time, the small towing aircraft was also activated and flew slowly from the port.

"Stop it.""

Fang Zhen ordered.

It's not that he is reckless, but that they must park here no matter what the situation of the space station is.

The 'Firebird' is a spaceship, which is quite large and has a high carrying capacity, but the core structure is not strong enough, and it will only be torn into pieces when it encounters a strong gravity environment.

Unless they want to crash directly, they can only change to the drop shuttle to the surface of Blue Star.

Under the control of the intelligent program, the small aircraft automatically pulled the spacecraft into the berth, and when the robotic arm sank and locked the ship, the cabin shook slightly.

Fang Zhen looked away from the other parked spaceships, but found that many screens on the console flickered.

"After approaching the Blue Star, the unknown interference became stronger."

He muttered to himself, picked up the earphone and listened to it, and found that it was full of noise, and tried to call the Star Harbor Tower again, but still couldn't connect.

"Captain, what should we do now?" The driver looked at him.

Fang Zhen patted him on the shoulder and said, "This spaceship has run out of fuel, it's useless for you to stay here, go down with us.

Out of prudence, he led everyone to put on the exoskeleton and weapons before opening the airtight door and entering the berth passage.

The long corridor is brightly lit.

It stands to reason that someone should come over now to conduct security inspections to prevent them from carrying unknown substances and germs, polluting the Star Harbor and the Blue Star ecosystem.

After the inspection, there will be a shuttle bus that will take them to the other side through the transfer hub.

But looking around at the moment, there is no half-person figure in the passage, and the dead silence is terrifying.

"Everyone be careful."

Fang Zhen moved the gun up and reminded him.

No one came to the security check, no shuttle bus showed up, and they had to leap and walk along the passage.

With the help of the scanning device of the exoskeleton armor, Fang Zhen saw that various unmanned observation facilities were still operating, but there was no response.

Everyone sensed that the atmosphere wasn't right.

Walking on the passage, through the large pieces of special panoramic glass on both sides, even if you exhaust your eyes, you can only see a corner of the black-gray steel texture.

This is like the situation of a blind man touching an elephant, making Xinggang even bigger.

A few minutes later, when everyone was about to finish this passage, a right-angled bend appeared in front of them.

After Fang Zhen made a gesture, everyone lined up lightly, leaning against the inner wall and floating forward cautiously.

The former's probe flashed and retracted, and said to the team members behind:

"No abnormality was found for the time being. After we got out of here, we divided our troops into two groups. One team went to find the drop shuttle with me, and the other team went to check the specific conditions of the space station. 39

"We want intelligence to bring it to the ground, understand?"

Seeing everyone nodding, Fang Zhen led them onwards. When they reached the fork, the members who were lined up in a line staggered into teams and divided into two groups to go in different directions.

During this journey, people have been calling the tower, but they have never received a response.

This made their hearts sink gradually.

Just when everyone's thoughts were chaotic, another corner came again, Fang Zhen had just stepped in, and the whole person was stunned in place. The man behind was caught off guard and almost hit him on the back.

"team leader……"

The man raised his head and just shouted a word, and his voice stopped abruptly, as if someone was strangling his neck.

In the eyes of everyone staring, a broken human corpse slowly floated to the front from a distance...
