The Secret History of Mars

"The countdown to Mars is 5133 years, the Earth experiment is 2 years old, and the records of the Mars Elders' House are true." Still the same standard female voice-over, the content of the second chapter of the information crystal slowly unfolded in front of the three people.

"Elder Cangxi has been settled in the cultivation center, but her star marrow is too seriously damaged and needs time to repair. In the past few centuries, she may not be able to participate in the Council of Elders." Another image with a human body and an ox head jumped in In front of my eyes, this person is much more comfortable than Elder Sakazumi in Chapter 1, and he doesn't have those fancy wings on his back.

"This is our Elder Yan and Emperor Yan of Shennong." Jia Liang explained in time.

After Jia Liang's reminder, Cui Xingmeng did see Elder Yan's immortal spirit.

As soon as Elder Yan finished speaking, there was a commotion in the Elders' House. Everyone admired Elder Cang Xi's spirit of sacrificing his own self for the great cause.

"This is the soil that Elder Cang Xi refined from the meteorites that fell to the ground while he was recuperating on the earth." The one who appears now is Elder Bao Xi, who has the head of a human and the body of a snake. "This is what our civilization can do so far." Refined, the densest nuclear material!" As soon as Elder Bao Xi finished speaking, there was an even greater commotion in the Elders' House.

"So, today Elder Yan and I proposed to restart Elder Sakazumi's third escape strategy and start developing a nuclear-powered spacecraft!" Bao Xi's third sentence directly caused the elders to explode.

"Since the establishment of the Presbyterian Council, Elder Bao Xi and Elder Banquan have always been at odds with each other. What happened today? Why did Elder Bao Xi take the initiative to propose a plan to restart Elder Banquan?" Everyone was talking.

"Last time Elder Banquan's plan was rejected in a vote because if it failed, the price would be the end of the entire Martian civilization. The risk was too high!" Elder Bao Xi obviously felt the restlessness and confusion of the people, and slowly explained , "The birth of Xinxiang makes it possible for us to use nuclear energy to develop light-speed interstellar spacecraft without bringing any risks to the existing Martian civilization."

"So the pioneer elders unanimously agreed to restart this strategy so that our Martian civilization has a third possibility besides going underground and immigrating to the earth." After Bao Xi said this, he stopped speaking and stayed. The elders in the presbytery whispered among themselves, and faced the doubtful and questioning eyes of Elder Sakazumi who was sitting opposite.

What Bao Xi didn't say was how heartbroken he was when he found Cang Xi in the cave on Earth a year ago. Looking at the dying elder Cang Xi, buried in a pile of meteorites, if he had been a step too late, the consequences would be really disastrous. If there had been a light speed spaceship at that time, could I have brought in reinforcements to help her earlier, and she would not have to suffer so much.

The picture of Nuwa Fuxi in the earth's mythology only records the scene when she first rescued Elder Cangxi and practiced Du Neng together. How could those unenlightened species know how many ways Elder Cangxi had thought of during the interstellar travel in the past year in order to allow Elder Cangxi to return to Mars smoothly?

Therefore, as soon as he returned to Mars, he proposed to request the Council of Elders to restart the development of nuclear-powered light-speed aircraft. One is to ease the relationship with the return faction and buy time for Elder Cang Xi to recover; the other is not selfless, he can no longer leave Cang Xi alone and helpless.

Elder Cangxi always said that this time it was her destiny to go against the will of heaven, and no one else was to blame. But the soil is not a reward for her great love and sacrifice. The Martians have been asking for millennia but have not been able to achieve a breakthrough, high-density nuclear fission raw materials, and she just got it by chance.

Elder Bao Xi said this, and the Elders Council quickly unanimously passed the resolution to restart the third escape strategy. At this time, the holographic projection lens is fast forwarding, showing the phased research results of this strategy.

"The countdown to Mars is 5105, and a small particle engine driven by soil has been successfully developed. After mass production, it is expected to provide huge kinetic energy for light-speed aircraft;

Mars is counting down to 5080 years, and a breakthrough has been made in refining soil based on Olympus Mons basalt, which provides a channel for local acquisition of raw materials for particle engines;

The countdown to Mars is 4900 years, and the full-scale nuclear-driven particle engine has been successfully installed for the first time. The Miemeng Gallery will become the first aircraft to be equipped with this engine.

The countdown to Mars is 4860 years. The first interstellar test flight of Miemeng Gallery was successful. The speed was: near the speed of light; the pilot of the test aircraft was Long Yaotian, the fourth-generation chief designer of the Jurassic of the Earth Experiment; the flight time of the Fire Earth: 29 minutes and 35 seconds! "

The holographic screen was frozen in a scene similar to an award ceremony. A man with a dragon head and body stood in the center of the screen, domineering and flamboyant. He should be the Long Yaotian mentioned just now. Next to him was Elder Sakazumi, who had the head of a bull and the body of a bull. He was so proud that the pair of wings on his back were fully extended, as if he was about to take off at any time.

Jia Liang's blood was boiling when he saw it, and he wished he could have been born in those passionate years, and followed his predecessors to open up new territories and share the world.

"So, you didn't really achieve the speed of light, but just near the speed of light?" Yuan Yizhou's words were like a basin of ice water poured on Jia Liang's head.

"Near light speed is almost the same as light speed. What's the difference?" Jia Liang was a little confused by what he said.

"The difference is huge. Near-light speed is just a little faster. There is no way for Martian civilization to go out of the solar system and conduct real interstellar exploration." Yuan Yizhou analyzed calmly, "Near-light speed can only allow Martians to travel at will in the solar system. And Except for the Earth, all the other planets in the solar system have either died before Mars, or are completely unsuitable for any civilization. Therefore, after Chi You has been busy for so many years, he still has to rely on earth experiments."

Seeing Yuan Yizhou's lucid analysis, Jia Liang was a little discouraged and didn't know how to answer the question.

"Is this Long Yaotian parallel to Qinghe, the designer of the Dinosaur Earth Experiment? He really knows how to choose his own carrier. It is indeed very suitable for the species in that time and space. He doesn't even need to buy camouflage uniforms." Yan Gou Cui Xingmeng's focus is completely different from Jia Liang's.

"Dinosaur time and space!" Yuan Yizhou seemed to have thought of something, "Please replay the last minute."

Jia Liang complied with his request and replayed the last part. "Stop!" Yuan Yizhou shouted, startling Jia Liang.

"The countdown to Mars is 4860 years. The first interstellar test flight of Miemeng Gallery is successful. The speed is: near the speed of light; the pilot of the test aircraft is: Long Yaotian, the fourth generation chief designer of the Jurassic of the Earth Experiment; the flight time of Fire Earth: 29 minutes and 35 seconds!" The screen stopped at the last sentence on the subtitles.

"29 minutes and 35 seconds!" Yuan Yizhou muttered, "The logic doesn't make sense. What's wrong?" He muttered to himself, while rapidly calculating in his brain.
