Chapter 973: Apocalypse Project
In the orbit of the Blue Star hundreds of kilometers high, a weird aircraft shaped like a disk is quietly traversing the void at a very fast speed, towards the dark space on the other side of the planet.
This is the "Roswell" transport ship belonging to Fengchao Space City.
The inexplicable name "Roswell" naturally comes from Renault, but people prefer to call it "Space Flying Saucer", or another more straightforward name-Flying Saucer.
The shape design of this thing does not conform to the most basic logic of the aerodynamic shape of traditional aircraft. It has neither wings nor tails. If it is inside the atmosphere, not only is it difficult to generate lift, but flight control will also become a huge problem.
But it doesn't matter in space. Anyway, there is not a little bit of air here. Whatever the aircraft wants to do, it can do it.
However, it is precisely because of this that the "Roswell" transport ship cannot enter the atmosphere and can only be used as a pure space vehicle to perform various transportation tasks in orbital space.
Ten minutes later, the space flying saucer with a diameter of more than 20 meters gradually approached a "disaster scanning satellite" above the equatorial orbit.
"The current speed of the satellite is 8.5 km/s, and the speed of the flying saucer is 12 km/s. It is ready to reverse the thrust direction of the Mozi thrust engine and reduce the flying speed until the flying saucer and the satellite reach a relatively static state!"
The commander stared at the display light screen in front of him and issued a command.
"Yes!"
The driver responded loudly and began to adjust the engine power.
The huge flying saucer seemed to be held by an invisible hand, and its speed began to plummet, and finally stabilized at 8.5 km/s, and the distance between it and the satellite was also reduced to about 500 meters.
The commander shouted again in the communication channel:
"Open the warehouse and perform the task!"
"understand!"
The cargo compartment in the abdomen of the flying saucer was opened, and a cylindrical magic instrument was pushed out. Then two magicians in spacesuits got out, activated the "magic belt" on the waist, and flew to the "disaster" with the instrument. Scan for satellites".
Relying on the power of magical thoughts provided by the "magic belt", the two of them flew to the side of the satellite in only 30 seconds.
Then the two magicians each took out a magic tool and flew around the satellite. It took a while to disassemble it into two pieces and take out a cylindrical object from it.
A magician exhaled and happily reported:
"The old core unit has been taken out!"
"Very well, let's replace the new part, and let me know when it's done. I will notify the Magician of the Third Satellite Control Center to test this satellite."
"Ok!"
The two magicians worked together to push the new parts into the satellite, reassembling the satellite while nagging:
"Hey, the mission this time is really heavy... In just 2 days, more than 200 satellites were replaced with core units. We have 36 missions today. We only changed 15 satellites after a busy half day. It’s late working overtime... Actually, it’s not that I don’t want to work. It’s just that working in such a horrible place is really disturbing."
"Man, work honestly. I heard that this is a direct order from the top of the Federation. Even if we work overnight, we have to complete the task..."
"As far as I know, the core unit is the most important component of the'disaster scanning satellite', and the cost occupies more than 80% of the entire satellite. Why not produce new satellites and deploy them directly from orbit? A flying saucer can deploy 100 per day. Multiple satellites, which saves time..."
The commander suddenly interjected:
"Elvis, the leaders of the Federal Academy of Sciences have considered the plan you mentioned, but the factory capacity of Fengchao Space City is too tight, and there are not enough people to make a complete satellite. Please work hard."
"Ok!"
Called the magician of "Elvis", muttered:
"I know that the space factory is rushing to work on the parts of the "Navigator" large-scale immigration spacecraft to prepare for the "Prometheus" program... But I don't understand a little bit, why not produce more X-wing fighters?"
"If the strength of the Federal Army is stronger, the hope of mankind's victory over the demon army will be increased... Before the war officially started, the senior leaders of the Federation just wanted to escape, which is really disappointing..."
"To shut up!"
The commander interrupted Elvis sharply:
"This is a plan that was made by the Supreme Crown personally. Are you smarter than the Supreme Crown?"
Others began to accuse Elvis.
"Yes, there must be a reason why the Supreme Crown made such a decision!"
"The Supreme Crown must think that the number of X-wing fighters is enough, and they did not continue to order production. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the decision under the Supreme Crown..."
Elvis hurriedly explained:
"Boss, I definitely didn't question the meaning of being under the supreme crown... It's just that my parents and younger siblings stayed on the ground and were not included in the ‘tinder list’. I am very worried about them..."
The channel suddenly became quiet.
The total human population is more than 30 million, and the "Tinder List" has only over 1 million places, which means that most people are not eligible for "ship tickets". Once humans are defeated, the humans who remain on the ground will not be able to escape death. doom.
And 99% of the people on the "Tinder List" have their family members staying on the ground. There are more than a dozen magicians on this space flying saucer. Everyone is like this. Elvis's words are on everyone's heart.
The commander sighed, then suddenly lowered his voice and said:
"Everyone, anyway, the war will break out within a year at most, so I won’t hide it from everyone... I am an intermediate magician, and I have more channels to get news. A month ago, I participated in a project. When I overheard a high-level magician's magic communication, he mentioned a highly confidential plan..."
He paused and spit out a word:
"Project Apocalypse!"
The magicians asked impatiently:
"What is the Apocalypse Plan?"
"Why have I never heard of this plan?"
"Boss, can you talk about it in detail?"
The commander gave a light cough and continued:
"Guys, I only know the words'Project Apocalypse', so I can't answer your questions."
This sentence immediately evoked a dissatisfied response.
"Boss, are you playing with us?"
"Yeah, boss you are too bad!"
The commander smiled slightly and said to himself:
"At that time, I also heard that the high-level magician mentioned the crown of the supreme in the magic communication, so I can be sure that the leader of the apocalypse plan is the crown of the supreme, and it has a high probability that it has been going on for a long time. For a period of time, and with the participation of many high-level magicians."
"Think about it in your mind, can such a plan be a general plan?"
A magician asked in surprise:
"Boss, do you mean that the Apocalypse plan is an extremely important strategic plan for the Federation, like the previous'Hand of Thanos' plan?"
The commander laughed:
"I said, I know everything... However, I have a hunch that the Apocalypse plan may be one of the most important cards for the Federation against the demons, and it may even be related to the fate of all mankind."
"Perhaps in the face of the Apocalypse Project, one more X-wing fighter and one less aircraft are simply irrelevant..."
Although the commander spoke with words like "maybe" and "maybe", others couldn't help but believe his words.
After talking about it for a while, the commander emphasized:
"Guys, this is our private chat. It's good if you know that there is such a plan. Don't tell it out, otherwise I will be in bad luck, or I will go to jail."
A group of magicians made guarantees again and again:
"Boss, don't worry."
"I'm absolutely tight-lipped!"
At this time, the magician responsible for assembling the satellite shouted:
"Boss, the installation is complete!"
The commander immediately shouted:
"You leave a certain distance first, and I will notify the satellite control center immediately."
The two magicians stepped back and waited quietly.
After a few breaths, a strong wave of mana suddenly surged inside the satellite, and a high-frequency mana burst out, sweeping towards the dark planet below.
After another moment, the commander said happily:
"The control center sent a message that the maximum scanning depth of the'penetrating high-precision scanning' has reached 7.5 kilometers, reaching the design depth. Now the **** devils can't hide from our eyes... this one The satellite upgrade is very successful, and we can go to the next satellite."
