Imperfections

“The starship is about to leave the wormhole area, and the energy response is within the normal range.”

“Detect communication signals.”

“The communication signal is normal and the information is being decoded-“

In the eighth galaxy, the laboratory of the Interstellar Expedition received a stable volume of noise. At this time, sixteen days have passed since the experimental ship set off. According to plan, they will reach the heart of the rose, the natural wormhole area on this day. The other end.

Throughout the eighth galaxy, the live manned experiment was simultaneously broadcasted. At the same time, the number of people online reached 400 million, and the number continued to rise. 400 million people erected their ears together to listen to the noise from the distorted spacetime.

“It’s unbelievable,” Thomas Yang said with emotion. “The compatriots in the eighth galaxy are too devoted to learn. There are so many people watching boring popular science broadcasts online. The future is limitless!”

Poisson Yang said coolly, “Are you stupid?”

“Brother,” Thomas Yang bit his cheek and forced a smile, pressing his voice, “Although your birth was a tragedy of buy one, get one free, I also understand that you have congenital dysplasia and language dysfunction-but you don’t think that you Is the sentence used too often? “

Poisson Yang glanced at him with his eyes: “When the seventh galaxy was attacked by the Anti-Ukrainian Society, General Lin released 800 million refugees into the country, and then the jump point was blown up, opening a Tianhe between the eight galaxy and the alliance. Many people think they will never go back in their lifetimes, understand? There are only 400 million people online, because today is a working day, and many people are not convenient to watch live broadcasts. “

Thomas Yang froze.

At this time, the expedition ground technical support decoded the information returned by the starship, and the noise was only slowed down by 1,500 times, and the content could be heard clearly. The original message returned by the starship was the “Freedom” of the eighth galaxy. “Song of the Alliance”, the thick chorus has been played to the end, and finally stopped on a high note, through the twisted space-time, was repeatedly folded and decoded, it sounds a bit distorted, like it came back from another world, and then The end of the song, a pause for a few seconds, and the next song was played. It is a lyrical minor from the alliance, telling the story of first love, I ca n’t remember which number of galaxies got fired first, everyone has heard it anyway , Seamlessly linked to the song of “Liberty Alliance”.

For a moment, heartless and heartless, like Thomas Young, also felt the inseparable connection between the Eighth Galaxy and the Alliance.

“The heart of the rose is the first galaxy. Before, they did n’t go deep into the heart of the rose. I do n’t know if they knew it, but last time the president and you ran directly to the heart of the rose to get the alliance a surprise. It ’s been so long. , They ca n’t be prepared at all, ”Turan and Lin Jingheng were late and entered the Star Expedition ’s laboratory together. Turan whispered to him as he walked,“ I still think the experimental starship is in the You should take a few mechas … “

“A scientific research team mixed in several armed mechs, what are you trying to do? I didn’t know what was in the wormhole before, but now I know who my neighbor is, and I still do it,” said Lin Jingheng. “Worried Is there no one else? “

Turan asked, “What if they turn around?”

“Keep communication open,” Lin Jingheng glanced at her, waving his hand to the expedition’s experimental starship’s two-way communication tool. “Expedition, can you hear me?”

There was a time lag between the exchanges between the two sides, and it took a while to answer: “General Lin.”

“At the Heart of the Rose, if I meet the Alliance Army or the Central Army, I would like to say hello to their Marshal Woolf, and say I wish him good health at the wormhole.” Lin Jingheng said, and stretched out his hand and waved the suspension. The small microphone in the air stood still and turned to Turan and said, “They have no reason to turn their faces, even if they do, they dare not worry.”

Turan: “…”

The commander is really a man who has conditions every day and no conditions to create conditions but also every day.

Lu Bixing waited early in the expedition team’s laboratory and was standing on the second floor to explain to the person in charge. Suddenly he heard such a sentence and bowed his head, and saw that no one beside him came in and talked. Lin Jingheng narrowed his eyelids and glanced at him. He didn’t show anything under the court, but just nodded him lightly.

The head of the expedition was obedient and half-hearted, and found that the general manager was gone, so he asked strangely, “General manager?”

Lu Bixing loosened his neckline and forgot where he was just now, so he smiled at him unpredictably.

“According to the current revolution cycle, there are up to four military fortresses in Rose Heart to Votor. Except for the first galaxy border guard Duke, there are no particularly noteworthy people. The transitional lane with a weight limit of ’24’ can pass one. If I want to get over a time-limited heavy armored team, it will take six hours to drive from the Heart of the Rose to Votor. Unless they have blasted the first galaxy in the center of the alliance into an isolated island, or transferred all the troops to Rose Lin Jingheng said with a bit of carelessness to Turan, “To make a difference, is it for a science team with only three people? Woolf is a commander, not a lunatic, not so arrogant, let alone the central army everywhere The power is quite high, and he may not listen to him. “

Turan was silent for a while: “Do you still believe that Woolf is not a lunatic?”

Lin Jingheng didn’t answer.

When Lin Wei was alive, he remembered that the old Marshal often came to see them, and he was still “Grand Woolf” at that time.

In Lin Jingheng’s impression, this grandfather Woolf has never been kind-looking, especially since he was old, his bones are clear and his flesh is very thin, such as the wrinkles carved by a knife. Children don’t talk much in front of them. Sometimes they really do n’t know what to communicate with them.

But his palms were thick and strong. When he touched the child’s soft head, he would rather open his eyebrows tightly, exuding a silent and gentle breath.

How Lin Wei died, Lin Jingheng was not very clear. The official statement was that he died of illness. He was too young to trace the truth, so he had to believe it.

He remembered that gloomy day, because General Lin Wei’s funeral was very grand, and people with heads and faces in the center of the alliance came. They deliberately adjusted the weather of Votor to make it look better. The house was noisy everywhere, inexplicable crowds of people, and interview machines buzzing and flying. He led his younger sister to avoid them and got together as a companion, and overheard a group of people who didn’t know whispered.

“… In fact, I have inside information here, you have not heard of it, General Lin Wei probably committed suicide.”

“I guessed a little,” said another. “Voto’s average life expectancy is more than 300 years old. There has never been a precedent for Pope’s collapse before 200 years old. How can it be possible with his identity and medical conditions?”

The children born in the Garden of Eden had never heard of “suicide” and had no concept. The little boy under ten years of age didn’t understand, but he subconsciously realized the cruelty in those words, so he held it tightly. Up sister’s ear.

“Lauragden is the person of Baita. Baita goes deep into the heart of Eden. Want me to say that once these people rebelled, wouldn’t they be like a haunted house? Maybe what was done between General Lin Wei and Eden In order to make people lose their minds and die out. “

“But I heard that the relationship between them is good …”

“What kind of feeling can a political marriage have? Marriages you want are less than three years old-don’t these big men say that to the outside world.”

“The matter of Lauragden is unknown, but I heard that there is a relationship between them, but that relationship may not be true. It is said that Lauragden used the illegal operation of the Garden of Eden … you know You can fall in love with a dog if you measure enough. “

“You just fell in love with a dog!”

They exclaimed high and low, like a group of crows surrounded by rotting flesh, and heard people’s intentions simmering, Lin Jingheng’s hands were too strong, and they struggled quietly and uncomfortably.

Suddenly, the group was dumb, their voices were low, and they stood in an embarrassing row-Marshal Woolf strode in, his hair seemed to be more than half a night and his cheeks sunken, but it was still very Tall, like a tree. Eagle’s gaze scratched around fiercely, without saying a word, the secretary behind him beckoned to the two children hiding in the corner.

The two children quickly followed, and Secretary Wang’s words fell into Lin Jingheng’s ears. He bit his ears to the old Marshal and said, “… I’m afraid I can’t refuse the request of the management committee, we can only leave one.”

Woolf didn’t look back at the two children, as if looking too much would hurt his eyes: “Then give it to Lu Xin, I said hello to him.”

Lin Jingheng carefully raised his head.

Secretary Wang said, “I thought you would want to take care of yourself.”

Woolf stepped for a moment. For a moment, Lin Jingheng felt that his neck moved, as if he wanted to look back at them, but finally he didn’t.

After a while, the old Marshal said dumbly, “… I can’t take care of it, I’m old, I can’t stand this … this … Take it away, and look sad.”

I saw the sadness, so I didn’t look at it, so after a few years, can I let it go without hesitation?

At that time quietly and keenly felt what, struggling with anxiety in his hands, not knowing whose sweat was in the palm of his hand, holding each other together, at that time there was a temperature of dependence.

Lin Jingheng held her tightly, thinking, “Well there is me, I will protect you.”

but……

He didn’t do it.

He hadn’t even attended her wedding. He hadn’t returned to Votor for more than 20 years. He hadn’t seen her for more than 20 years. The closest distance was an eco-cabin on the asteroid, but he could not help but treat her as the most dangerous enemy of his life, and he was afraid to divulge a little sincerity in his tight heart, and couldn’t stop a little truth.

What’s wrong with the robot hand Lu Bixing copied for Zhan Lu, because he had never seen the girl in a school uniform.

Lin Jingheng said uncompromisingly to Turan: “Compared to the Alliance, the Pirate Freedom Army will be a bit more troublesome. They just had troubles near the heart of Rose a while ago. It stands to reason that the Alliance should be on guard, but opium is everywhere. Be careful, ask the expedition to check in advance whether the jammer is working properly. “

In the experimental star fleet, human experimenters control only a small part. In order to observe the effect of wormholes on the human spiritual network, most of the driving tasks are completed by artificial intelligence on the starship, which can prevent the spiritual network from being invaded if it is attacked. , The unmanned starship can be blocked at the periphery, and it will automatically release interference-the jammer is assisted by Dr. Harden, which can cause a certain degree of mental interference to the generation of opium chip wearers-leaving enough for the people in the starship Escape time.

“Experimental starships are careful not to leave the Heart of Rose area,” said Lin Jingheng, “set up a communication device over there and return immediately.”

“The experimental starship is about to leave the wormhole–“

The entire expeditionary laboratory was suddenly silent. Because of the time difference, when the news came back to the star, the starship had reached the heart of the rose. Everyone was waiting for the news from there and held their breath.

The next moment, there was a noise coming from the communication information, and the artificial intelligence immediately started to decode automatically. Then, a piece of violin music flowed out, and the laboratory where the needle could be heard suddenly boiled.

Succeeded!

A smooth passage to the edge of the first galaxy!

The eighth galaxy has been isolated from the world for nearly seventeen years, and finally a bridge has been erected again. All the people who still care about it have hope to go back and take a look. And the same technology can visit farther afield, open up new territories, and continue to expand the territory of human civilization, they may be able to create a faster and faster development of a “new era of navigation”!

Lin Jingheng looked up and found that Lu Bixing on the second floor had been watching him, and finally caught his eyes, so he looked around like a thief, and when no one noticed him, he was very unstable and very “total length”. He compared to a thumb-up gesture and nodded his chest, each finger seemed to proudly display “I’m not great”.

Then the person in charge of the expedition next to him turned blushed and turned his head roughly, and Lu Bixing’s look and gestures changed immediately, and he straightened his blouse and nodded stubbornly.

Lin Jingheng: “…”

Just then, the smooth signal suddenly sharpened, the soothing violin stopped, and Turan suddenly stood up—

Mint was checking the data of all the experimental starships. Before the report was complete, she heard a loud noise in the fleet’s communication channel, and she clapped her hands.

A companion shouted, “Fleet is attacked!”

Mint calmed down quickly, quickly detected the attacked starship, and quickly saw the direction of the enemy in the lens-low-power telescope can see clearly, that is a ghost-like small mech team, on the mech There is no sign, as if it has been in ambush for a long time, and the missile was directly placed in the face!

However, the heart of Rose was full of weird gravitational forces. The missile was swerved in the direction and only swept the stern of an outer starship. The starship then released interference in accordance with the preset procedure, and the effect was immediate. Several of the vessels suddenly deflected the course and accelerated out of the gravitational field.

“It doesn’t matter.” Mint immediately detached the damaged parts of the damaged starship, and the autopilot experimental starship gathered into a copper-walled iron-walled armor, protecting them in the middle. “It’s a pirate, a few mechs, and we return immediately . “

“Wait, Mint, the orientation of No. 3 ‘017’!”

As the voice faded, an energy alert had sounded in the starship, and an armed mech squad approached them quickly, Mint’s pupils flinched, and then the other side opened fire.

The experimental star fleet at the same time adjusted the protective power of all starships to the maximum. At the next moment, a row of high-energy particle guns passed by them and crashed into the sneaking pirate ships. Subsequently, the mech team wiped them. Passing by, chasing after the pirate mech.

The pirate small mech was originally very mobile, but was interrupted by the jammer when it struck the starship, and finally managed to stabilize it. It reconnected to the spiritual network to return to the channel. Before it had time to accelerate, it was blocked by others and blinked. Kung fu, the pirate mech was shot down seven hundred and seventy-eight, and the remaining few attempted to flee. They were melted by large-scale high-energy particle cannons, smashed the arsenal, and forced capture of captives.

Only then did Mint breathe a sigh of relief and took the initiative to make an unarmed sign on the starship, representing himself as a scientific research team.

The communication request of the armed mech was taken in. A young man dressed as an alliance officer appeared on the screen, judging by the common sense of mint barrenness, his epaulets seemed to be a colonel, and the colonel saluted her politely.

“I am the representative of the Alliance Politburo in the First Galaxy Border Guard, my last name is Lord. A few weeks ago, the First Galaxy captured the unusual energy fluctuations of the Heart of the Rose, knowing that there might be friends from that side, worried about pirate trouble , Deliberately stepped up patrolling, I did not expect that there was still a leaking fish, I hope you are not surprised. Need help, we have been waiting for the voice over there for a long time. “

Mint has been conducting scientific research expeditions in the Star Expedition, and was not in a position to cope with the diplomatic scene. For a moment, I did not know whether to convey Lin Jingheng’s half-threatening “greet”.

Hearing that colonel again said, “I also hope that General Lin is OK, I don’t know if I am lucky to make him a little impression-I was once his guard when I was in the Silver Fortress.”
