Chapter 90: Nobody wants you to be right more than I do
December 25.
With the inertial shaking caused by the deceleration of the spacecraft, the intelligent voice of the spacecraft appeared: "Attention, we have arrived at the destination."
Everyone came to the cockpit. Now they don't wear spacesuits, they are all casual clothes. The opponents they face have changed. It doesn't make much sense whether they wear spacesuits in the spaceship.
David operated the system to open the shutter, and through the observation window of the cabin, a gray giant star appeared in everyone's sight.
"It's so spectacular..." Ren murmured: "I never thought that I can see the scenery in the universe, I really don't feel bad..."
Drizzle's beautiful eyes flowed, and it was also a rare shocking look: "The world is mysterious, and people are like dust..."
Ava: "What a big duck!"
Bucky handed Xie Zhi a cigarette, and lit one himself: "Is it this planet?"
David pointed out, "No, it's this satellite."
Bucky curled his lips: "It's much smaller. It would be perfect if it had a weapon that could blow up planets."
Xie Zhi nodded: "I agree, it's best to use the Star Destroyer across the galaxy."
Bucky: "I hate aliens."
Xie Zhi: "Very annoying."
The intelligent voice appeared: "No smoking in the cockpit."
"David, make it shut up."
"Okay, modify the safety regulations, smoking is allowed in the cockpit."
"Let's go, go and wake up all the workers."
Xiao Yu took Ava away, temporarily not wanting the crew to see the children there. Similarly, Xiong Da Xiong Er also found a cabin and did not show up.
And Xie Zhi, Bucky, and Ryan came to the dormant room and watched David wake up the dormant cabins one by one.
The awakened people experienced the discomfort of waking up, and then went to eat breakfast to replenish their strength under David's arrangement.
However, no one had doubts about Xie Zhi and the others, and Xie Zhi was not surprised. He had learned the information of the seventeen crew members in the past few days, and most of them did not know each other.
"After breakfast, let's have a meeting." Xie Zhi left behind a sentence, turned and left.
The meeting room is actually a gym, and the space of the spaceship should be used reasonably. Obviously, there is no need to build a separate meeting room.
A group of crew members chatted relaxedly and calmly, and entered the venue one after another.
After gathering, Xie Zhi walked to the center and said: "Good morning, my name is Xie Zhi, the person in charge of this operation, it's a pleasure to meet you all."
A black man in the back seat said: "Where is Ms. Vickers? If I remember correctly, she is the person in charge of this mission."
"The plan has changed, and now I have the final say, Mr. Captain."
Black captain: "It's a pity that big companies are sick. Ms. Vickers is a beauty."
"About changing the person in charge, does anyone have any questions?" Seeing that no one asked, Xie Zhi walked to the right: "Let's watch a video."
Following Xie Zhi's voice, a holographic projection appeared in the room. The location of the projection was a hall, and the protagonist was Wieland with a dog.
Wieland babbled a lot of nonsense, at least that's how Xie Zhi saw it. When introducing David, he raised some philosophical questions about soul, life, and death.
Xie Zhi is more interested in the technical content of holographic projection, which is obviously much higher than that of Umbrella, and the resolution is super high.
Finally, Wieland brought out two scientists and asked them to explain the purpose of the mission.
Two doctors, a man and a woman, came to the stage and told what happened, the archaeological discoveries around the world, the worship of giants, the same star map, and the location of the galaxy that really existed, which is the destination of this trip.
Some of the crew questioned, such as the tattooed geologist, who obviously felt that the trip was too nonsense: "So we came all the way here because two children found a map in the cave?"
"Yes."
"No."
The two doctors obviously disagreed. Dr. Holloway didn't say anything. Dr. Xiao said, "It's not a picture, it's an invitation letter."
Xie Zhi frowned. He didn't like the woman's tone of voice and eyes. Although she was calm and polite, it seemed as if she had grasped the truth. She declared it beyond doubt. Even if you are right, but with a bit of rigor as a scientist, you should at least have words like "personal judgment", "probability", and "possibility".
Geologist: "Whose invitation?"
Dr. Xiao smiled: "We call them engineers."
Geologist: "Engineer, heck, would you mind telling me what their engineering is?"
Dr. Xiao is still in a declarative tone: "Create human engineering."
"It's really a joke."
The geologist's words amused the other biologist, and just as he was about to talk about it, Xie Zhi suddenly stood up and said, "Okay, that's the end of the nonsense, I just make one request, all actions must be strictly Follow my instructions without negotiation."
Dr. Xiao opened his mouth slightly, with dissatisfaction and amusement in his eyes: "If I remember correctly, Wieland just said that we are the person in charge of this operation."
"The video is from two years ago, Doctor, and as I said, plans have changed."
"What if I say no?"
"There are plenty of beds in the dormant cabin, and you will be home after a good night's sleep."
Dr. Xiao frowned: "What do you study?"
Xie Zhi lifted his coat, revealing a pistol under his arm: "Study this."
"Ha! It's a brilliant idea to have soldiers with antique guns in charge of scientific exploration!"
"You have the right to complain to Wieland, and I'm more than happy to help you with that."
Dr. Xiao still wanted to speak, but was pulled by Dr. Holloway. Holloway said: "No problem, then, when will we start to act?"
Xie Zhi turned around and asked, "Mr. Captain, how soon can we start landing?"
The captain stood up with a serious expression: "Soon, Mr. Xie Zhi, it is not a good idea to carry gunpowder weapons in a spaceship."
The others also became a lot more serious. The person in charge who carried a gun with him and the two people who followed him didn't look like good stubble. This behavior was not good.
"Thank you for reminding me. Believe me, I must be the one who least expects to use this." Xie Zhi glanced at Dr. Xiao, "More than anyone else, I hope that your engineers... are friendly people."
Dr. Xiao had a clear look, and the contempt in his eyes was undisguised: "I'm afraid you are too nervous, the engineer is not what you think..."
Xie Zhi interrupted: "Doctor~www.NovelMTL.com~No one hopes that you are right more than me."
…
Everyone entered the spacious cockpit. At this time, the captain and two co-pilots were in control of the spaceship. Artificial intelligence was sufficient for automatic navigation in outer space, but it had to be manually operated by professionals when entering the atmosphere.
"Attention all personnel, I am the captain, fasten your seat belts and prepare to enter the atmosphere."
"Follow the captain."
"How's the atmosphere?"
"Atmospheric composition is 71% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and some argon..."
"The carbon dioxide content exceeds 3%, and people will die if they are exposed to the outside for more than two minutes."
"There is a mountain on the port side, 52,000 meters..."
"Make a circle around the mountain and let's find a place to land."
"No communication signal, no heat source..."
"Looks like nobody's home..."
"There is nothingness in the desert..."
Xie Zhi watched and listened silently. What he saw outside the window were all natural landscapes. There were no traces of man-made objects or signs of life. Perhaps, it was really just a coincidence. It's good news, but until the moment when the truth is revealed, my heart is still hanging.
When the spacecraft passed through a mountain valley, something special appeared.
There are a few straight lines, to be precise, straight roads, and hemispherical objects, like stone textures, huge like buildings, surrounded by circular walls, it seems that it is hard to say that they are naturally formed.
Xie Zhi felt that those hemispherical objects looked like grave bags no matter how they looked...

PS: There was an earthquake in the morning, and the distance was only more than 100 kilometers away. The neighbor said that he felt the shock, and I was sleeping at the time... I was afraid, please bookmark and recommend to suppress the shock.
