Chapter 270, thrilling time and space ocean currents
Space-time currents connect the channels between star systems. Although the space-time currents can reach another star system in a very short time, this space-time current is obviously very different from the normal space-time environment, because the speed of aircraft and others are flying at a speed beyond the speed of light, so even a very small asteroid is enough to bring a fatal blow to the aircraft.
Yu Liang, Luo Xiaoyao, Tang Boyuan, Gu Feng and others all seemed very nervous at this time. From the information obtained from Luo En civilization, the spacecraft Scarter Yong rode on when he arrived at the solar system from the Canis Great Galaxy was covered with scars and was severely damaged in the space-time currents.
Scarter and Zhina were even more unlucky. He brought more than a dozen large spacecraft, and in the end only three spacecraft arrived in the solar system. One of them was basically scrapped, and only the "Mosa Emperor" was in relatively good condition. The "Three-Leaf Crocodile" spacecraft was severely damaged, otherwise it would not have been so easy to be destroyed by the 2-wave attacks of six spacecraft led by Douglas and others.
It can be seen that flying in space-time currents is definitely a very dangerous thing. If you are not lucky, you may be buried directly in space-time currents.
Although the "Jiuzhou" spacecraft that everyone was riding was the peak of technology at present, especially because they knew that space-time currents were very dangerous, they also used many technological means to increase the spacecraft's defense capabilities in advance, but everyone actually didn't have much confidence in their hearts.
The dark Kuiper belt was in the void, dark and cold, and the Jiuzhou spacecraft began to slow down in the void. Under the silent prayer of everyone, the spacecraft flew into an area that seemed to be no different from other voids.
Everyone in the spacecraft felt that the world in front of them suddenly became brighter, and the dark starry sky outside disappeared, and replaced by a world like colorful streaming light.
In the current of time and space, everything seemed to suddenly become faster, and countless streams of light kept flashing from their side. These streams were colorful and emitting a halo, making people look very comfortable and felt like heaven.
"What a nice view!"
Tang Boyuan looked at the scenery outside and seemed to be fascinated. He exclaimed gently, watching the dark and starry world in the universe, and suddenly seeing colorful space-time currents, forming a strong contrast. At this time, not only Tang Boyuan, but everyone on the entire spacecraft was attracted by the beautiful scenery outside.
"What are these streaming things? Are they light? They are light in the normal void? It's just that because our speed has exceeded the speed of light at this time, we can see these lights clearly."
Yu Liang is a scientist, but at this moment he was thinking about what these streamers were, just like discovering a new continent, and his heart was full of curiosity.
"Open gravity field defense!"
As the deputy captain Luo Xiaoyao, he was relatively calmer and ordered the gravity field defense system to be activated quickly. Gravity field defense is also a derivative technology of anti-gravity technology. The principle is to use powerful gravity to unload objects attacking the spacecraft using the principle of homosexual repulsion.
Theoretically, if gravity field defense technology is studied to the top level, even the energy attack on the spacecraft can be removed. Of course, it has just begun to develop now and is far from reaching that level. Scientists estimate that at most they can only remove some objects of relatively small mass. Defending on rail cannons and other things should have good results.
At this time, gravity field defense is turned on to defend against asteroids flying rapidly in space-time currents, etc. If the asteroid is not too large, it can play a certain role.
"Yes, all units are ready to deal with possible things at any time. Don't take off your space suits just in case."
Hearing Luo Xiaoyao's words, Yu Liang also reacted and quickly ordered. He was attracted by the beautiful scenery just now, but almost forgot that the space-time currents were full of dangers.
Everyone on the spacecraft was extremely nervous, and they were ready to deal with the crisis at any time at their posts. However, after waiting, several days passed in a flash. The spacecraft was still safe and sound in the space-time currents and did not encounter any problems. This made everyone who had been tense of their nerves slowly relax.
"Let everyone not be too nervous. I guess it will take several months to sail in the space-time currents. If we can encounter meteorite impacts every day, we will probably have to finish it. Now, the spacecraft of the Luon civilization, etc., should only encounter one or two meteorite impacts, and they are not often hit by meteorites."
Yu Liang also seemed a little tired at this time. His nerves were tense for several days and made people very tired. At this time, he kept thinking and finally figured out the key point. Therefore, he also knew that there should not be too many meteorite impacts in the space-time currents, otherwise he could declare that the game was finished directly.
Things were indeed as Yu Liang expected. The Jiuzhou spacecraft flew in the space-time current for two weeks without anything, and it was smooth sailing.
Everyone on the boat has gradually relaxed, and even the colorful world outside has no longer attracted their attention. After watching it for a long time, I feel that it is nothing strange, but it is actually that way.
"bump!"
Until the 26th day after the spacecraft entered the space-time current, everyone on the spacecraft was enjoying their time and space journey as usual. Suddenly, the spacecraft trembled violently, and a loud sound made everyone on the spacecraft look like a cat with a tail stepped on, and instantly shocked.
"Where was hit? How is the damage?"
Yu Liang, Luo Xiaoyao, Tang Boyuan, Gu Feng and others all hurried to the control center of the spacecraft and asked anxiously. At this time, their faces looked ugly and showed a solemn and worried look.
"Just just now, on the right side of our spacecraft, a meteorite with a mass of only a few hundred kilograms crashed into our spacecraft from the upper side. However, under the action of the gravity field, its trajectory changed and it hit the top of the right side of our spacecraft."
"I'm very lucky that our spacecraft has very little damage. The shell was originally made of new reinforced materials. In addition, it hit the top position after changing direction. It can be said that it just scratched some skin."
The computer on the spacecraft simulated the impact situation just now, and the self-test system also checked the status of the spacecraft. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, without any danger, and was in a false alarm, and safely escaped the disaster.
"Huh! I'm scared."
Tang Boyuan breathed a lot of relief.
"If it weren't for the protection of the gravity field, the meteorite of a few hundred kilograms would be enough to directly hit the right side of our spacecraft. Fortunately, its mass is not large, and the impact is relatively flat, so it will be considered a passing by under the action of the gravity field. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. No wonder the spacecraft of the Luo'en civilization are covered with scars. It is estimated that many of them are impacted by meteorites with very small mass."
"Those big wounds and holes are caused by the collision of asteroids of hundreds of kilograms and thousands of kilograms. If you encounter a larger meteorite, it would be terrible."
Yu Liang was also scared and secretly thanked that although the current gravity field technology is not too powerful, it is still very effective in defending against the impact of some small meteorites. He saved the spaceship's life just now.
"Well, I hope our luck won't be too bad."
Luo Xiaoyao, Gu Feng and others also nodded, and everyone's nerves became tense again. The space-time currents were still full of dangers. All they could do now is pray. The gravity field technology has just started, and its effect is actually very limited. Once you encounter a meteorite or asteroid with too much mass, if it hits the front, the spacecraft will definitely be severely damaged.
The spacecraft continued to advance rapidly in the space-time currents, and then calmed down for more than two weeks. The spacecraft did not encounter any meteorite impact.
"It's already the 40th day, and it's almost one and a half months. I guess we should be able to fly out of the space-time currents in about half a month. The Centaurus galaxy is only 4.3 light years away from the solar system. According to the time Scarter~Yong stays in the space-time currents, we can reach the Centaurus galaxy in about two months."
In the leisure area of the spacecraft, Tang Boyuan and others were drinking tea while chatting. Tang Boyuan calculated the time and estimated the time to reach the Centaurus galaxy through space-time currents.
"I hope everything goes well, and there is still half a month left."
Gu Feng smiled and prayed, and it can be said that everything is going very smoothly until now.
"bump!"
However, as soon as his words fell, the spacecraft shook violently again, and the huge impact sound was transmitted, and the tea in everyone's hands fell to the ground.
"Go to the control room."
Everyone's faces suddenly became ugly. Without hesitation, they immediately stood up and went to the command center to check the situation of the spacecraft.
"Just just now, the spacecraft was hit head-on by a meteorite with a mass of dozens of kilograms. Despite the influence of the gravity field, the meteorite orbit had some deviations and changes, but our spacecraft was still installed by this meteorite."
"One of the two rail guns on the top of the spacecraft was directly destroyed, and seven cabins could no longer be used. Overall, this time it was quite lucky. If there was no gravity field and the impact came head-on, we might have casualties this time."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief again. The spacecraft was slightly injured this time and could be repaired quickly after arriving in the Centaurus galaxy.
"bump!"
However, before everyone was happy for a long time, the spacecraft trembled again.
Chapter completed!
