ultimate cannon fodder

He stayed on the Earth side for less than an hour at most, and the transmission delay Nachuan Organization has conducted several tests. The bilateral round-trip delay will be about 1 minute. Although this number will fluctuate, the amplitude is not large. It usually only takes a few seconds. Ma Jianyao has walked through this passage several times, and this situation has never happened before. Could it be related to the abnormal situation happening on the earth?

Seeing the uncertain expression on Ma Jianyao's face, Jiang Qiuyi couldn't help but feel nervous, and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong, are you injured?" Although she looked fierce just now, in fact, she had been hurt in her heart these past two days. Her suffering was no less than that of anyone else. The more she was alone, she couldn't help but think wildly, fearing that Ma Jianyao would really encounter an accident on the other side of the passage, and even the experiments she carried out made several low-level mistakes.

Ma Jianyao shook his head and recounted the situation he saw on the other side of the passage. When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other and could see the unbelievable looks in each other's eyes. If it weren't for their extraordinary trust in Ma Jianyao, It's hard to believe what he said.

Jiang Qiuyi thought for a while and said: "I don't know what happened on the other side of the earth, but the delay generated during the transmission process is basically fixed as long as the channel is stable. This is just like when we walk, the distance and pace frequency Under the same circumstances, the time required is basically fixed, and there will not be much error. This delay of two days must be due to a major change in the space energy that constitutes the wormhole..."

"If you tell me that, doesn't it mean that the passage may collapse and be damaged?" Ma Jianyao frowned and asked worriedly.

Hearing what he said, everyone's hearts tightened, and the expressions on their faces became panic. Once the passage collapsed, it meant that they might be trapped in this realm forever. Although the realm was good, it was always a foreign land. , it is difficult for people who are accustomed to living on the earth to have a sense of belonging. Moreover, although this place looks like the earth, it is still inferior to the living environment of human beings. The first is the problem of drinking water. Once there is a problem with the water purification equipment, they all I will die of thirst here.

The reason why they are willing to stay is not only Ma Jianyao's combat prowess and charisma, but also Ma Jianyao's promise to never close the channel. For them, if Ma Jianyao can really succeed, as one of the first veterans to open up new territories, Their benefits will definitely be indispensable in the future; and if it doesn't work out, all the responsibilities can be passed on to Ma Jianyao and Pu Fei. Even if the Nachuan organization doesn't want them, based on their combat power, there are many organizations rushing to get them, and they It was also determined that the Nachuan Organization would not be able to take the initiative to close the channel and completely abandon this golden realm.

But once there is a problem with the passage, there is no way out. They are not selfless enough to live or die with Ma Jianyao.

Jiang Qiuyi glanced around everyone and took in all their expressions. Of course she knew how much shock her words would cause, but she sighed and said: "It is possible, but I am not an expert in this field. For There is no research on space transmission. Why don't you call Charteris and ask? Although he is not an authority in this field, among us, he has the most in-depth and thorough research on space transmission."

Although major organizations and forces have basically established scientific research centers, the strength in this area is still far behind the Federation, which has the right time, place and people. Otherwise, they would not be so thirsty for talents. Jiang Qiuyi has just joined the federation. Come here and immediately put her in charge of the entire scientific research center. Although Jiang Qiuyi is a well-known expert in biological genes, she is not the best in the entire federation.

But even so, the scientific research strength of these organizations should not be underestimated. Take Charteris, for example, who was able to come up with the early warning device needed by Ma Jianyao in just one or two days, which is still very impressive.

"Well, please invite him here quickly." The matter was so important that Ma Jianyao didn't bother to ask Pu Fei for his opinion. After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone again and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, everyone, if the passage really collapses, If there is any danger, I will definitely ask everyone to retreat to the earth in time,"

When everyone heard this, their anxious hearts were relieved, and the expressions on their faces became much more relaxed.

Pu Fei frowned and said: "Since there is no one in the base on the earth, we can just occupy it. This way, both sides of the passage are under our control, and we don't have to worry about being attacked all the time. After coming here and having a stronghold on Earth, we can advance, attack, retreat or defend, and we can continue to attract new blood to grow and develop, but..."

He stopped before he finished speaking, but everyone understood his subtext. If it hadn't encountered some extreme situation, how could the Nachuan organization have given up on this stronghold? You must know that giving up a stronghold means giving up. The entire realm, and didn't Ma Jianyao also say it, not only has the stronghold become a dead zone, but there are no living creatures within a radius of a hundred kilometers. Such a strange scene, even if they are all elites who are used to seeing life and death, but It makes my hair stand on end just thinking about it.

Qiu Hongxin said: "According to the description of the world master, there must be something wrong on the earth, but we haven't seen anything. Are we actually scared by some invisible enemies this time? It's a rare opportunity. If you miss it, , I’m afraid it won’t be easy for us to seize this stronghold again in the future. Once the Nachuan organization regains control of this stronghold, it will strangle us by the throat. Besides, if there is any powerful enemy, we will hide here. Can we protect ourselves? Can't others come here through the passage? What if Charteris thinks that the passage will collapse later and everyone will not be able to get through?"

These words were like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, making everyone suddenly realize that, yes, weighing the pros and cons, no matter how weird the stronghold on the earth is, they must occupy it, unless they make up their mind to cut off the connection with the earth and stay here wholeheartedly from now on. This realm has flourished, otherwise this level must be faced.

"What do you think?" Ma Jianyao glanced at everyone and asked. Although he is the leader of everyone, he has never been able to give orders. This matter concerns everyone's vital interests, and he does not Are you willing to act arbitrarily, or do you want to respect everyone's wishes?

"I agree with Brother Qiu, we haven't seen anything. Since Nachuan is going to hand over this stronghold to us, we can't be polite," Wei Xu was the first to shout. He was seriously injured at first, thanks to Ma Jianyao He used the power of rules to suppress his injuries, so that there were no sequelae. Otherwise, even if he recovers, his combat strength will be damaged. In the case of mild cases, it will be difficult to make any progress in the future, and in severe cases, he will fall, even from B level. It's possible to reach D level.

Precisely because of this, he is the one who has the least purpose for Ma Jianyao among all the people.

"I also agree that it is not a good idea to stick to this place. We must expand out. Otherwise, even if Nachuan cannot be attacked in the future, as long as the passage is blocked, we will be trapped here."

"But if we all pass, what will happen here? The defense force is weak. If we are attacked by alien creatures or Pleiadians, it will be troublesome. After all, this is the foundation of our foothold," said Wei. Erles, he used to be a B+ level Dragon Whisperer who was responsible for the defense of the underground part of the base. He was low-key, but his combat power was not inferior to that of Pu Fei. It stands to reason that he was promoted by Lie Yan single-handedly. When Ma Jianyao and the others captured the base, even if he was unable to resist, He should have left, but I don't know why he stayed.

"This is not a problem. Since the passage is under our control, if we encounter a problem that cannot be solved, reinforcements from the other side can rush over immediately. In this way, both sides can take care of it, right?"

"You thought the transmission delay was still the same as before, but now it is delayed for two days. If there is an emergency, the day lilies will be cold in two days,"

Everyone was talking to each other, and most of them agreed that the stronghold on the earth should be occupied and managed well. However, there were still a few people who were worried that they were greedy for more. The manpower in the base was already insufficient, and they would have to leave again. Half of the people will probably not be able to do both well, and when the time comes, the gains will outweigh the losses.

At this time, Charteris came over with an unhappy look on his face. He finally had the opportunity to show off his talents. He was busy studying the improvement of early warning devices with great interest, but he was suddenly called here. Naturally, he was very unhappy. If If he didn't expect Ma Jianyao to give him more support for his research in the future, even if he put a knife on his neck, he wouldn't want to waste his precious time here.

However, when he heard Ma Jianyao talk about the transmission delay, the displeasure on his face immediately faded away, replaced by an unprecedented seriousness. He thought for a long time before speaking out: "There are many reasons for transmission delay, and it is not necessarily space. It’s an energy problem, but generally speaking, even if there is a delay and the change occurs, the amplitude cannot be that large. From one minute to two days, this is far beyond common sense. The most likely reason is that the channel has been stretched..."

"Long Zhang, what does this mean?" Tang Chen couldn't help but ask before Charteris finished speaking.

"I'll draw a picture, maybe it will be easy for you to understand," Charteris took out an electronic screen from his pocket, projected a cosmic scene full of planets in the void, and then clicked on two points at random and said: "For example, these two points respectively represent the earth and the realm we are currently in. If we follow the normal method, to reach the realm tens of thousands of light years away from the earth, we can only fly non-stop through spacecraft, but with our With the current technology, even if there is enough energy and food supply on the spacecraft, we will not be able to fly to the next level from the time we are born to the time we grow old and die."

"But if we keep folding the space in half," Charteris clasped his hands together, the two seemingly distant points almost overlapped. "Look, will we be able to reach our destination quickly? Although the theory of wormholes is not exactly like this, it roughly means this, and when I say that the channel is elongated, that’s what it is..." He gently relaxed his folded hands outwards, between two almost overlapping points. A slight distance immediately appeared, and "the time required for transmission was naturally extended,"
