An extraordinary journey from the beginning

Chapter 99 30 tons of fuel

……

Earth, 2075, the wandering age.

Human beings have evolved through decades of natural disasters, experienced severe cold, severe heat, floods, volcanic eruptions, and species extinction...until scientists fully predicted that the sun is rapidly aging. In less than 100 years, the sun will explode directly due to thermal energy and directly destroy it. Drop the earth and even affect the entire solar system.

Faced with the hopeless atmosphere of the doomsday, all countries of mankind chose to unite together, formed a coalition government, and established a community of human destiny in the true sense that was once only verbally submitted.

Regardless of skin color, national border, or language, they in this destiny body work together and struggle for the hope of this species.

For the people at the bottom, this is an era of chaos. Some people take advantage of the collapse of order to magnify the darkness in their hearts, burn, kill and loot, some people sink into the sea and choose to wait for death alone in silence, and some people face the doomsday with their hearts full of hope. The gods and Buddhas believe that if there is hell, there should be gods, even if they die, they can go to heaven...

In this era, some people abandon their beliefs as a firm atheist, thinking that human beings should save themselves; but at the same time, some people believe in certain beliefs more and more firmly, hoping to achieve spiritual pursuit and comfort.

It's not because of how fast Lu Ming's brain turns, but because Lu Ming let everyone see in him a lot of things that believers have been pursuing but have never seen.

The towering giant tree towering into the sky in the canyon, the confident figure of the snow-capped glacier in the iceberg...

Human beings need a hope as well as a belief.

They just found a belief to rest on.

……

Wang Lei is a soldier, and he is a firm atheist. Although many things happened today beyond his imagination, he still does not believe that there are gods in this world, but this does not prevent him from choosing to believe in hope.

So he came here again after he had already completed the task of rescuing the Hangzhou underground city.

"Decided?"

At the car door, Lu Ming raised his eyes and asked softly.

"I am a soldier, and I am also a rescue worker sent by the coalition government. Before all the engines on the earth are started, the mission on my shoulders is not over. I should go to support Sulawesi."

Wang Lei saluted and said solemnly.

Lu Ming took a deep look at him, then stepped aside, and Wang Lei immediately got on the transport vehicle from the side.

"Let's go, old man!"

After closing the car door, Lu Ming said to Han Ziang, "Target Sulawesi!"

"Okay!"

The old man happily agreed, and Lu Ming asked to bring their family with him, but he didn't feel any discomfort, because without Lu Ming, maybe they would have been buried in that canyon long ago.

Of course, it's mainly the faces of Li Shiqing and Han Duoduo and what Lu Ming said,
"Follow us so that I can truly protect your safety. As for the reason, you can understand that it is for Dodo."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Han Duoduo in the back row lovingly.

Duoduo has found her relatives, maybe the old man shouldn't hold on to them so tightly, they are blood relatives, and they shouldn't have kept her by my side because of me, so they wouldn't see each other.

He thought so.

……

Pushing the engine, the body of the transport vehicle trembled slightly, making a humming sound, and then stopped suddenly after a while.

"what happened?"

Lu Ming, who was about to lie down and sleep, raised his head and asked.

"them……"

Grandpa Han Ziang pointed to the front of the car.

Lu Ming looked down and saw seven or eight people in protective clothing standing in front of the car. They were members of Wang Lei's cn171-11 rescue team.

"You go and solve it!"

Smiling, Lu Ming said to Wang Lei.

Wang Lei frowned and nodded, then got out of the car immediately, and after a while...

After a while, he got into the car with a group of people and looked at Lu Ming.

"..."

The corner of Lu Ming's mouth twitched, and he pointed to the empty seat on the car, "Don't disturb my sleep~"

"Great, Captain Wang Lei's rescue team is very familiar with the wild conditions of the snowy Pingchuan, which can save us many detours and reach Sulawesi faster."

Li Yiyi said with some surprise.

"I'm still waiting for your mechanical exoskeleton..."

Lu Ming tilted his head and said something helplessly.

. . . . . .

"Sulawesi is located in the volcanic and seismic belt around the Pacific Ocean, on the left side of the equator. After so many years of geological changes and evolution, it is no longer the area with frequent volcanoes. The surrounding seas have all changed due to the severe cold. into a glacier."

Li Yiyi quickly flew on the keyboard between his fingers, and soon two straight lines were displayed on it, and he clicked a confirmation button, "Old Li, I have sent the navigation to the in-car system, planning the nearest vehicle route."

Lao Li nodded slightly, indicating that he received it.

The driver was no longer Han Ziang. After all, the old man was getting old. Lu Ming was worried about his safety. After Wang Lei's team members boarded the car, he decisively chose to change the driver.

After all, you are a young man, so if you drive tired, you should drive tired.

"How long does it take to get to Sulawesi at the fastest speed?"

Lu Ming looked at the map and asked.There are only routes on it, but no time stamped.

"Even if we go at full speed, it will take at least twelve hours!"

Li Yiyi said nervously. "There is a Levi refueling station in the middle. Based on the consumption calculated by me, we need to refill the fuel of the car there, and then continue on the road."

Lu Ming nodded slightly, at this moment the radio station in the car suddenly rang, and everyone looked around inquiringly.

"The un121-15 rescue team reported that the engine in Nepal has been restarted!"

"No989-12 Rescue Team reports that the engine of Duling City has been restarted!"

"mu767-13 rescue team reports that the Singapore engine has restarted!"

"..."

Different languages ​​reported the situation on the radio one after another through simultaneous translation. Everyone in the car looked much more excited, and the situation seemed to be improving. Li Yiyi also looked at Lu Ming expectantly, and said excitedly:

"90% of the steering engines have been repaired, only the Sulawesi batch is missing!"

"Since this is the case, you can start to do what I want to say."

Lu Ming patted his shoulder and said softly.

Li Yiyi's heart stopped suddenly, and he watched him waiting for the next sentence.

"If there is no accident, in about ten hours, the earth will break through the limit of Jupiter's rigid Roche limit and undergo an irreversible disintegration process!"

Lu Ming pointed to the two spheres on the computer screen, "Jupiter will capture enough Earth's oxygen by then, and the two will suddenly interact with each other, and you will know better what will happen!"

"Hydrogen is mixed with oxygen, and a piece of fire can be ignited. If the mass of hydrogen and oxygen mixed is large enough, the resulting explosion will directly push the earth away from Jupiter!"

Li Yiyi stood up in an instant, but immediately thought of something, and immediately said, "The distance between the earth and the wood is now more than hundreds of thousands of kilometers, and it is impossible to shoot it with missiles. Instead of pushing the planet, we're blowing it up!"

"So I need you to go to a job!"

"What job?"

"Modify the program of the engine!"

"You mean?"

Li Yiyi suddenly became excited, "Use the planetary engine as the injection port, increase its magnification, so that the engine can inject higher?!"

"You have a good idea, but we are still missing something!"

Lu Ming ignored his excitement and said softly.

"What's more?"

Li Yiyi asked quickly.

Lu Ming looked at Liu Qi, then at the sky, "It's thirty..."

"Thirty what?"

Li asked one by one.

"... 30 tons of fuel is still short."

Lu Ming rubbed his swollen eyebrows, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.

"What do you mean?"

Liu Qi frowned and asked, looking at Lu Ming who hesitated for a long time before speaking, he had an ominous premonition in his heart, thinking of what Lu Ming said before and the movement of looking at the sky, his uneasiness became deeper and deeper.

"You mean that even if I modify the planetary engine, the final ejection of flint will not reach the surface of Jupiter, right?"

Li Yiyi took over the conversation. After all, he is a person with a high IQ. Combined with the hints given by Lu Ming before, he immediately thought of a lot. Since Lu Ming said that this problem can be solved, where is the poor 30 tons of fuel?
Looking at the red vortex in the sky, thinking about Lu Ming's previous expression, his eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly realized, and muttered to himself: "In the sky!"

As expected of a high-level talent, no wonder he is the United Government Advanced Technology Research Institute at such a young age... Lu Ming murmured in his heart, and it was no one who could think of it so clearly just by saying a few words. He turned expressionlessly and walked to Li Shiqing's side.

The next thing should not be my own to worry about, even if I say it, it won't change the final result. Instead of doing this, it's better not to put pressure on Liu Qi's heart, and a second of relaxation is a second of relaxation.

Besides, it is impossible for Lu Ming to give up the chance of global human survival in order to save one person.

That was really brain-twitching behavior.

"Li Changtiao, what do you mean by being in the sky?"

Seeing Lu Ming running aside, Liu Qi hurriedly asked Li Yi one by one.

"It should be a space station..."

Li Yiyi knocked on the computer to check the data, and said thoughtfully.

"What does it have to do with the space station?"

Liu Qi suddenly felt a little nervous,

"According to the information query in the coalition government database, the navigator space station has at least enough energy fuel for hundreds of years of operation..."

Li Yiyi groaned and turned the computer screen to face Liu Qi.

"..."

Looking at the information displayed on the screen, Liu Qi's complexion changed drastically, and his breathing became a lot more rapid. After a while, he suddenly thought of something, and quickly turned his head and walked to Lu Ming's side, took a deep breath, and asked nervously, "Brother , can there be another way? There must be other ways, right?"

"First, I'm not sure this is the solution. It's not the first time I've encountered a gap between reality and prediction."

Lu Ming squinted at him, buried his head down again, and stretched out his second finger, "Second, when I wake up, I'll try..."

Li Shiqing hugged Lu Ming with some distress. She could feel the entanglement and hesitation in Lu Ming's heart. He reached out and hugged Lu Ming tightly, hoping to share his emotions.

only……

There are some things that she can bear together with Lu Ming, but there are some things that Lu Ming wants to bear alone...
