Master of Thermodynamics
Chapter 944: Interstellar Express
Staring into a dark void, Arrietty has an illusion of walking through an endless abyss, as if all this will continue indefinitely until the end of life.
"Mom, look at our'Blue Star', it's so small now..."
Althea's voice awakened the Duchess from her thoughts. She turned her head and looked back, and immediately saw that the originally huge planet was now smaller than a teacup.
This made Allietty realize with trepidation that she is far, far away from home now.
At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the "Prometheus" plan, and a thought suddenly came out:
If one day human beings are defeated by the demon army, the mother and daughter must leave the "Blue Star" and be forced to embark on an unknown and long space journey, what kind of scene?
Arrietty's heart tightened, she reached out and grabbed her daughter's little hand, and asked softly:
"Honey, do you like space travel?"
The little girl hesitated for a moment, then whispered:
"Mom, it's too dark in space, I'm a little scared."
After thinking about it, she added:
"However, if your father is here, Althea will not be afraid!"
Arrietty sighed and looked at her daughter's little face pityingly:
"My dear, your father will always be with his baby."
At the same time, she said silently in her heart:
"If the'Prometheus' project is really launched..."
At this time, the communication channel, which had been quiet for more than 20 minutes, rang again.
"'Phoenix' calls'Moon Palace','Phoenix' calls'Moon Palace'..."
"Received from'Moon Palace', you are welcome to arrive in the jurisdiction of'Ya'an'!"
"Thank you very much. We are currently 20,000 kilometers away from'Ya'an' and we request to access the'Guangshen Net'!"
"Received! We are searching for signals, please wait!"
"understand!"
"The signal has been identified and the network is being connected! Also, on behalf of the Moon Palace, please convey our greetings to the crown of Arrietty, Princess Althea!"
"Understand, we will tell it for you."
When the mother and daughter were still on their way, the news of their coming had already alarmed a large number of people.
When the Phoenix fighter called the "Moon Palace," the reason why the opponent responded immediately was largely because of this.
"Successful networking, the'Guangshen's Net' has opened an exclusive ultra-long-range energy transmission channel for you!"
"thank you very much!"
"Zizi..."
There is a sudden noise in the communication channel, which is a typical phenomenon when changing the frequency spectrum.
"Turn on the'Super Magic Counter Force Field'!"
"Turn on the main engine, reverse the thrust, and reduce the speed of the fighter to 100 km/s!"
"Yes!"
"Start positioning the'Millennium Falcon', once it approaches the 2000 km range, immediately reduce the speed to 20 km/s!"
In just half an hour, the Phoenix fighter surpassed an ultra-long distance of more than 200,000 kilometers, relying on the two super energy sources of "Vulcan Net" and "Light God Net".
One end supplies the energy required for acceleration, and the other end is responsible for deceleration. Both ends together form an "interstellar highway" that smashes into the sky!
So far, the Human Federation has established two "interstellar expressways", one is the "Blue Star-Ya'an Expressway" and the other is the "Blue Star-Eva Expressway".
In addition, there is a third "interstellar highway" under construction, that is, the blue star to the third planet in the alien solar system-halo star, the interstellar navigation channel between the two.
Like the "Saturn" in different time and space, this planet has a giant "planetary ring" composed of countless rocks and ice blocks. Its diameter is nearly 2.5 times larger than the planet itself. It is extremely eye-catching and extremely beautiful.
However, because the distance between the two is 250-680 million kilometers, the transportation of materials takes an extremely long time, and this "interstellar highway" is unlikely to be completed before the invasion of the Void Demon.
Althea glanced at the satellite "Ya'an" that has become dozens of times larger, and asked hopefully:
"Mom, are we about to see Dad?"
"of course!"
Arrietty nodded affirmatively.
...
Six minutes later, when the Phoenix fighter entered the dark side of "Ya'an", its speed further dropped to a "low speed" of 2 km/s.
Always staring at Althea, who was staring at the dark space in front of her, she suddenly saw a blue light spot and broke into her sight.
"Mom, mom...Is that the asteroid where Father Father is?"
Aunt Liang shook her mother's arm vigorously and asked excitedly.
Allietty shook her head helplessly, and had to ask the captain, Major Derek for help:
"Mr. Major, my daughter needs your help... She wants to know, is the blue light spot in front of the Phoenix Fighter the asteroid being transported under the Supreme Crown?"
"His Royal Highness the beautiful princess is very happy to help you! You guessed it right, the blue light you see is actually the light emitted by the'planetary engine' when it is running."
A sonorous voice came from the channel immediately:
"According to the space radar, the current straight-line distance between the fighter plane and the asteroid is about 137 kilometers. In 1 minute, we will arrive at the asteroid. Please start wearing spacesuits for both of you now."
This sentence made the little girl excited all of a sudden. She couldn't wait to control [Nan Moment], opened the storage box on the top of the seat, took out her aerospace helmet, and quickly put it on.
When the porthole in front of Althea was occupied by a blue-emitting asteroid, she clearly saw a figure covered in red light rising from the surface of the asteroid toward the fighter plane. Came hurriedly.
At the same time, a gentle and familiar voice sounded in her aerospace helmet:
"Althea, go to the'emergency exit' of the fighter plane with your mother, and I will pick you up!"
"My father!"
All the thoughts that Aunt Liang had accumulated, turned into these 4 words.
Arrietty took her daughter's hand and, under the guidance of a soldier, quickly floated to the "emergency exit" on the back of the fighter, which was a small airtight cabin for escape.
"Crack!"
"Woo..."
As soon as the hatch opened, a gust of wind blew up instantly.
This is the phenomenon caused by the rapid leakage of the air in the cabin.
Afterwards, a figure who was thinking about everything appeared in front of Althea.
A pair of blazing red "wings of light" condensed behind the figure, surrounded by a huge halo, which looked gorgeous, like a powerful **** descending on the world.
The little girl saw the figure stretch out her hands, her body flew over involuntarily, and was hugged tightly by a pair of arms again.
"Oh, my beautiful little princess, let my father take a good look at you!"
"My father!"
Althea let out a faint whimper, and put her arms around the opponent's neck.
Arrietty floated quietly in the void, watching the scene of the father and daughter embracing, and sighed in contentment.
