It is indeed a big deal for Umbrella to suppress Da Mei. But Umbrella is now able to achieve its current status. Even after the beauty bowed her head, it did not cause any protests or hostility among the people. In addition to Umbrella always being 'reasonable', another important reason is that Umbrella That’s about it!

After the beautiful fleet was defeated and surrendered, Umbrella did not carry out further killings. Therefore, although the blow to the beautiful fleet was huge this time, the loss was still acceptable to them.

Overall, the damage caused by the abyss invasion was far less than that. After all, in addition to killing the monsters in the abyss that time, the beautiful girl also swallowed a thermonuclear bomb.

Even now, there are still some fleeing abyss monsters that have not been found. The damage caused by the New York invasion to Great Beauty was both immediate and lasting.

Economically, it also squeezed out all the cards in Big Beautiful's hand. It would be okay if we win against Umbrella later on, and we can start eating flesh and blood. At least the overseas assets of South Korea and Neon will be able to recover a lot of blood.

But after losing, this is naturally the situation now. With this huge psychological shadow, everyone can be sure that the threat of abyssal invasion is much greater than the biological crisis!

So even though the alien visitor had to be carried by a tall man, he still attracted enough attention during the launch.

And because it involves the abyss, even the animal protection saints did not protest or anything... Geosynchronous orbit!

It is more than 30,000 kilometers above the ground, equivalent to one-tenth of the distance between the Earth and the Moon. The magnificent Nantianmen has more than doubled in size compared to when it was first built!

It has been breaking its own record for the largest space building in mankind. A large number of orbital robots are still floating on the synchronous orbit, performing some connection work.

In addition, some modules that are not directly connected to Nantianmen are also being spliced ​​and built. The carrying capacity of the Nantianmen Space Elevator and the assembly capacity of the robot are here. The only thing that is limited now is the production capacity.

As for production capacity, in addition to Penglai and Umbrella factories around the world, when we last negotiated an agreement to borrow the Nantianmen launch, we also outsourced a large amount of module production capacity, which is completely mutually beneficial.

At this time, we are in front of this space wonder with the starry sky as the background and the busy orbiting robots as decoration.

Starship II was also released directly from the space elevator. The space elevator directly launched some of the modules into space in the same way as peeling off egg shells, and was packed and towed away one by one by nearby space robots.

All this was completed in front of the tourists who had landed in Nantianmen. A large number of shots illustrate this process.

"so fast!"

"Is the rocket ready just like that?"

"Is it worthy of Umbrella's speed?"

"After all, it's a finished product, but Umbrella doesn't launch one by itself? Does it actually let Starship II be the first?"

"Hurry up and launch. After reading this, I have to go back to mine."

"..." As everyone watched, Umbrella's robot completed the assembly of Starship II on the launch pad at an incredible speed!

It is said to be a launch pad, but in fact, this space launch does not require any attention to up, down, left, and right. It is more like a large pliers jamming the starship, extending far away, maintaining a safe distance from the Nantianmen.

There is no traditional rocket launch platform, and there are no bells and whistles. Now it looks like the starship is alone in space.

There is no need to consider gravity, and there is no need to think of a way to push it into space first. This is undoubtedly extremely simple!

"This is the first launch of Nantianmen's orbital space equipment. The launch targets are SX Company's 'Starship II' and our company's 'Starship I'. The targets are both unknown asteroids." As Umbrella officially began to announce After the launch plan, everyone was a little surprised.

What? Umbrella also has a launch plan of its own? Although this is reasonable, I haven't seen the detector you launched yet.

Masla, who was paying close attention on the other side, was also a little surprised. Then he opened his eyes wide and began to look for some clues, wanting to see what Umbrella was going to do.

But before he could think any more, Umbrella still gave him the opportunity to count down the Starship II, no matter how he paid for it.

Masla, who was also a little nervous and excited, stood in his launch center and started counting down. Although he wanted to count down for a while longer, he honestly chose to start from ten in the end.

"Ten, nine... three, two, one! Launch!" Boom~ Although there was no sound in space, as the starship ignited, a dazzling blue plasma beam was ejected from the rear of the starship, slowly pushing forward. The starship flew towards the deep starry sky.

However, this startup speed still surprised many people, and they left comments one after another.

"It's not as fast as I thought. Isn't it said that there is no need to consider gravity in space? But why does it feel like the speed is not as fast as in the atmosphere?"

"The jet is not right either, it should be the Hall thruster."

"Does such a large Starship II use Hall thrusters? No fossil fuels?"

"..." Masla seemed to be aware of some doubts, so after the ignition was successful, he asked the technicians to monitor and issue follow-up instructions while also posting on social platforms.

"This is Umbrella's launch platform. We can't leave too much garbage for the owners here. The flames ejected after the fossil fuels are ignited will leave a lot of impurities if they are not fully burned. It may not have much impact, but it is too That's rude." After hearing Masla's words, everyone understood.

However, many people still secretly speculate that if someone else stumbles when borrowing it, they wonder if Umbrella has any means to deal with it.

I just think about Umbrella's mechas and their various technologies.

With Umbrella's ability to urinate, she could definitely catch the rocket on the spot and throw it on its owner's head from space.

I believe that no party would be stupid enough to say something like this... After the Starship II was far away with the help of the Hall thruster, it was ignited again and a significantly more dazzling flame was sprayed from behind!

Then he pushed the starship and flew quickly towards the depths of the starry sky, getting faster and faster. Until this time, Masla also gave a speech on the success of the launch and thanked Umbrella again for borrowing Nantianmen.

But at this moment, when everyone was wondering when Umbrella's detector would be launched. Many tourists inside Nantianmen suddenly felt some vibrations in Nantianmen.

"What's wrong? Will everything be okay?" This place is 35,000 kilometers away from the earth! At this time, even a slight vibration in Nantianmen will bring fear.

However, the 'old bird' who had been here many times spoke in a calm tone.

"It's okay. It should be that a new module has been completed in Nantianmen. Sometimes it will be like this when a new sightseeing cabin is opened." As he said this, he pointed to the locked gate of the sightseeing cabin where they were.

"For example, the splicing should be completed outside that side. Once the splicing is completed and it is deemed that it can be opened, the gate will be opened. I have encountered it before." Although he did not say that he almost pulled the library directly during that encounter, but this did not prevent him from doing so. Very knowledgeable.

Nantianmen has been under expansion, and sometimes it is necessary to adjust its position to maintain a balance with the center of gravity of the elevator below, so it is completely normal for some vibration control to occur.

However, after the tremor occurred this time, there was also a broadcast reminder in Nantianmen.

"'Xingxiu I' is about to leave Nantianmen, and there will be more obvious adjustments. Please hold on to the nearby handrails to avoid injuries." When these words came out, many people were a little stunned.

'Xingxiu I' launched? There were no vibration problems before the Starship II was launched. Where is the Starship I... However, before everyone could react, there was a burst of vibrations, and the front half of the Nantian Gate in space had been completed. At the connection point of the space capsule, a burst of white mist appeared!

A structure made up of dozens of space capsules in front of Nantianmen suddenly broke away from the main body of Nantianmen along with the jets of white gas!

After escaping for a short distance under the jet of white gas, it also flew towards the depths of the starry sky under a burst of blue radiant jet tail flames.

As this giant spaceship made up of dozens of space capsules left the Nantianmen, it gradually appeared in the eyes of everyone in the sightseeing cabin.

The silver-white appearance gradually moves from the shadows into the sunlight. A real spaceship gradually revealed its full appearance and appeared in front of everyone's eyes!

Swish~ The solar panels and solar sails are unfolded, and the originally magnificent volume becomes even more gorgeous.

"Fuck! What is this?"

"Good guy, I thought it was also launched from the launch pad. Just cut off a part of Nantianmen and fly directly?"

"Is it so easy to assemble and disassemble?"

"What a handsome structure..."

"Look, this large spacecraft is constantly rotating, and there is a pendulum-like cabin on it. In theory, it should be able to simulate a gravity environment inside."

"Is this, is this a pre-launch for a manned voyage..." As Umbrella's Constellation i'probe' began to be in the same frame as the starship, the gap between the two sides became more and more obvious.

It feels like the gap between a serious ship and a barrel floating next to it. This made Masla, who had just expressed his thanks, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

This...do you think that I am also a company here, so it is best to use me as a foil? I don’t want to lose face?

But while wearing a mask of pain in his heart, Masla had to force a smile and continue to comment on social platforms.

"Congratulations to Umbrella for another breakthrough in technology!"

"Fortunately, technology is in the hands of civilization..." No? how? I just successfully launched, and others didn’t express my opinion on the launch?

So brave? Anyway, Masla thought he was not that brave. What if I get penalized... Chapter 716 "Congratulations Umbrella!"

》《A big step forward for civilization! 》《The human spacecraft launched by Umbrella made its maiden voyage! "The Xingxu spacecraft represents the future." With the successful launch of the two spacecrafts, they also attracted overwhelming praise.

There is no doubt that Starship II can only be a supporting role to set off Starship I. The praises throughout the article are surrounding the spiraling Star I spaceship!

Even other top aerospace agencies also gave high praise and issued congratulations one after another.

It can be spliced ​​so easily, unfolded so easily and start rotating forward. Although this spacecraft is still unmanned, it already has all the conditions for a manned voyage!

People will experience various physical conditions in a weightless environment for a long time, and the opponent's rotating structure can overcome this to some extent with centripetal force. As long as the rotation speed is set appropriately, it can be completely simulated.

In fact, Starship II is already quite large. Because it is launched from space, it has a lot of equipment installed and even has nuclear strike capabilities.

But compared to the magnificent Constellation I, the gap is really too big. Fishing boats next to the aircraft carrier!

No wonder this became the backdrop in reports. In NASA's conference room, a group of people looked at Umbrella's giant spacecraft and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's really amazing. Their spacecraft should be an unmanned test spacecraft. It may even be fully functional. It is full of robots for auxiliary control and environmental testing."

"The gap has been widening, and this time their spacecraft should not only be used for testing and attack. I am afraid there are other reasons."

"Asteroid ore, if you build a space elevator and don't engage in asteroid mining, wouldn't it be a waste of resources?"

"Usually we have to wait so long for launch. That's because the weight we carry is not enough, and the energy is not enough. With the opponent's size, solar panels, and their own thrusters, the acceleration time can obviously be lengthened, and the speed must also be increased. Much faster..." Moving forward in space, as long as you apply thrust, you can almost always speed up!

It’s just that previous Mars probes, or even longer-distance probes, were all launched by rocket acceleration. Their mass was limited and the speed they could provide was also limited.

The probe's thruster is more about adjusting the direction, and the main acceleration is done by the rocket.

But now people are directly accelerating in space. Although the mass is also very large, the acceleration time can obviously be lengthened.

The real round trip speed is much faster than a normal detector! For example, the distance during the perigee phase of Mars is about 55 million kilometers, which is equivalent to hundreds of times the distance between the Earth and the moon, and thousands of times the orbit of synchronous satellites.

However, this distance will not be affected by much external interference. If the whole process is half accelerated and half decelerated, it is enough to control the time within half a month.

However, it takes more than 200 days to launch a Mars probe from the surface of the earth. With the size of this spacecraft, it is completely feasible to go to some asteroids for mining, for example!

This is especially true for some precious metal asteroids. Although there are not many pure silver and pure gold asteroids in the universe, it is not impossible to find them if you look carefully.

Even if the value of an item is based on the relationship between supply and demand, the price will go down if the supply is large, but even so, this is a huge wealth that can be 'made out of nothing'.

But unfortunately, even if Umbrella is willing to open Nantian Gate, they do not have this technology for the time being.

Besides, even if it is developed with difficulty, what will happen to the ore that is shipped back? Shouldn’t we just ask Umbrella to send her back?

Maybe that's what An was thinking, encouraging others to explore space to find silver or something... Just when all parties were excited by the appearance of Umbrella's 'spaceship', and started discussing it.

The asteroid that had arrived near Mars suddenly turned! This surprised the major observatories that have been closely monitoring the asteroid.

Many places directly issued public warnings!

"It's moving! It turns out that the person who came here is evil!"

"Turn? Why?"

"When I go, I mean heading towards Mars!"

"..." After various measurements and calculations, it was finally determined that the asteroid was heading towards Mars at high speed and was about to be captured by the gravity of Mars!

Even Wang Yi, who had been paying attention to this matter, was a little surprised.

"Have you noticed our departure? Have you been watching us?" Lin Shiqin also emerged from Wang Yi and asked.

"There is a high probability that it is, and it is heading towards Mars instead of leaving directly. It is obviously not because of fear..."

"Isn't it because of fear..." Wang Yi frowned.

"I'm going to the abyss. This thing needs to be confirmed by an abyss creature..."... Enzuo has been acting in front of the players until now, and he has finally been assimilated by the 'Hall of Heroes' and became a palace-protecting dog.

At the same time, he also received his new honorary name. Cerberus! The watchdog of hell in ancient Greek mythology!

She received an honorable name that echoed the Hall of Valor and became the Dog Queen of the Righteous Path. At this time, Enzuo was lying comfortably in the square of Silver Castle every day, accepting the worship of players.

They are really cute little guys, they are worthy of their master’s clan! This power of faith is so sweet! Enzuo himself is actually still a legend in nature, and cannot directly absorb the power of faith.

However, after passing through the Hall of Heroes, this conceptual artifact created by Wang Yi himself still allowed him to utilize this power in advance.

As for the poison of faith? What the hell, the Lord of the Abyss is already very confused, so why would he care about this?

What Enzuo? I don’t know him. From now on he will be Cerberus, the most loyal lackey of his master! Um?

The smell of the owner! Enzuo's eyes suddenly widened. But at least he still remembered his responsibilities and disguise, and pretended to say

"I will go back to the Hall of Heroes and come back as soon as I go. Remember, if you want to tame the Flame Dog, you must have at least mastered the taming technique to level five. When you bring it, I will preside over the ceremony for you..." After that, he went directly After a sudden change, it turned into a stream of light that shot straight into the sky.

But after finishing the appearance, he immediately turned into a little Jingba and appeared at Wang Yi's feet on the top of the tower, with an ugly and flattering smile on his wrinkled ugly face.

"Master, you are here." Wang Yi's eyes flashed with golden light as he glanced at Enzuo and nodded.

"Yes, digestion is okay. Next, I will strip out all the negative spirits in the faith and put them into your body to try." Wang Yi's words not only did not make Enzuo feel scared, but his little eyes glowed, and he hugged Wang Yi's boots started to be licked wildly.

"Oh, praise Master, you..."

"Stop, now the outsider has arrived near Mars and is falling towards Mars. Come with me and see if you can sense what species it is." Wang Yi picked up the back of Enzuo's neck.

Wang Yi's life essence is now very high and his abilities are also very strong. But the 55 million kilometers of magic-free zone made it too difficult for him to directly detect the induction.

On the contrary, it was Enzuo. Because he was the Lord of the Abyss, and relying on the ubiquitous correlation of the abyss itself, it was possible to make certain judgments at this distance.

Besides, the faith that has been put in recently cannot be in vain, right? Now that I don’t have any restrictions, it’s reasonable to go on a trip and take a look in the space elevator... Chapter 717: Guest Identity Compared to Peng Lai’s mechanical desolation in the past, even though Peng Lai is still here You can feel the excitement on the plane.

As the Gulf Stream just leaves the clouds, something different can be seen below. The pedestrian sightseeing channels opened on both sides of the airport runway on the top floor are already filled with people standing behind the guardrail at the top looking down at the sea below.

In addition, there are also some air-cushion facilities on the water in the sea, and the entertainment waters marked out by anti-shark nets in the open air are also full of people playing and playing.

The space elevator connecting the sky and the earth in the middle brings a huge sense of oppression along with the cargo box that just landed, which is a world wonder in the new century.

There were as many as four or five planes landing and taking off at the same time, which fully reflected the excitement and prosperity of Penglai.

"Hey~, it's already so lively." Qian Yayan couldn't help but sigh with emotion as she looked at the scene below against the glass.

"One million settled people and a larger floating population are enough to make this place the most lively place in the world." Liu Xiaoke flipped through a fashion magazine in his hand and couldn't help but sigh when he saw that the plane was about to land. He put on his big sunglasses and a lace sunhat.

"I regret it a little bit, I still have to learn from you two." Liu Xiaoke took out the mask again and started to put it on, feeling a little helpless to complain.

She quite likes her acting career, but she doesn't like the feeling of being watched by the paparazzi. Because of the filming of "Starry Sky" and her performance at the opening ceremony of the mecha competition, it has become even more popular now.

And it’s still popular at home and abroad, so I feel a bit regretful this time.

"Hehe, our great mathematician has foresight." Qian Yayan also smiled. This is her strength that makes her better than Dafang.

"It doesn't really matter in Penglai." Wang Yi looked out the window at the crowds of tourists on both sides when he landed, and smiled casually.

This is our own territory... As the Gulf Stream landed, many tourists on the sightseeing passages on both sides couldn't help but be a little surprised when they saw the landing plane.

"Huh? This plane is not black."

"Yeah, it's different. This isn't a passenger plane, is it?"

"The Gulfstream is a private jet."

"There are private planes coming now. Are they bought by people with settlement rights?"

"It doesn't seem to work..."

"..." But amidst the whispers of the tourists, the plane also arrived at the landing platform, and then slowly sank.

After Wang Yi got off the plane, he looked at the holographic screen and then said casually

"There happens to be a space elevator loading cargo. Let's go up and have a look."

"Okay, I just want to go see the universe!" Qian Yayan also seemed very excited. Although Liu Xiaoke was wearing sunglasses and a mask, he was also very happy.

At this time, the inner streets seemed more lively than those above. A large number of duty-free shops have rented stores and opened, selling various brands.

Moreover, the products Umbrella chooses to enter are mainly based on word-of-mouth, and it does not necessarily mean that big brands will be able to enter.

For example, there is no trace of those brands that speak out loudly or slander brands. Anyway, Umbrella had the final say on Peng Lai, and no one dared to have any opinions.

There are all kinds of people on the street, but those who can come here through selection, even if it is just a tourist visa, at least have no criminal record.

And Umbrella will not spoil you, and there are no privileges or privileges, so everyone who comes here seems to be quite friendly.

There were also many families with adults and children passing by holding balloons, with happy smiles on their faces.

However, in total, the proportion of black people should be the lowest. Most of the people who occasionally appear are of mixed race, and judging from their clothing and mental outlook, they have received higher education.

"It feels like there are so many shops here. Even if you go to Paris, you won't necessarily find such a complete range." Qian Yayan looked at the shops with bright eyes, as if she wanted to go in and browse.

Her character is like this, even if her status and net worth have increased, her hobbies are just hobbies.

"Okay, I'll accompany you for a walk when we get down." Wang Yi took Enzuo's dog leash and walked along the passage.

And there is an ugly Jingba here, which actually makes many people feel a little curious.

On the way, a father of a family of four took the initiative to talk.

"Hello, may I ask how you brought your pets here? Our family also has two Labradors, but because we couldn't find a way to bring them in, we had to foster them in the countryside." The man must have liked dogs very much, and he lowered his head and made some strange friendly gestures towards Enzuo, which made Enzuo roll his eyes.

The human expression made the man feel a little embarrassed. Then he looked at Wang Yi and his party, and was surprised when he saw Qian Yayan.

"It seems that it is not open yet, and it may not be open in the short term. I am using Umbrella's internal channels." Wang Yi kicked En Zuo to indicate that he should be polite, and explained casually.

He doesn't hate animals, or in other words, all animals on earth belong to Wang Yi's Juan clan. But equally, even so, Wang Yi is still a people-oriented character at heart. He can support the protection of animals and not kill them casually, but it is impossible for him to eat pork without bleeding.

He still couldn't understand those guys who elevated animals to the level of humans or even higher. Therefore, there will be no traces of pets on Penglai for the time being.

"Oh, that's such a pity. My name is Ao Bo, a Hollywood agent. These are my wife and children. I was lucky enough to win the family package this time. I came here to receive examination and treatment. The effect is really good. Great." Aobo is obviously a person with a social personality. After hearing that Wang Yi used internal channels to bring pets here, he obviously talked more.

"Well, I wish you all a good time." Wang Yi smiled casually and left with Qian Yayan and Liu Xiaoke holding Enzuo's hand.

And Aobo did not continue to mess around, but stood behind and thought for a moment. His wife also came up with her two children at this time and said

"Why, are you suffering from an occupational disease again? But the two oriental beauties have good skin, and the one without a mask is also quite beautiful. As a woman, I'm a little excited."

"A little bit, but I'm still more curious about their identities. They are carrying pets alone, and looking at the direction in front of them, they may be going up to the space elevator. This means that they don't need to draw a lottery. It's really amazing." Ao Bo said with a sigh.

Only after arriving in Penglai can you truly feel what the future city is! There were also physical exams and treatments that the whole family paid to have done, which was really great.

Although the price is relatively expensive, it is undeniable that the price/performance ratio is still very high. When calculated, it is actually cheaper than Da Mei’s private medical expenses. This caught him off guard as he was originally prepared for heavy bleeding... On the other hand, Wang Yi and his party also came to the platform and took Gouzi into the space elevator.

"Wait a while and do some sensing. If you can confirm the target and provide clues, you will be rewarded." Wang Yi picked up En Zuo's neck and placed it on the window sill, making En Zuo stick out his tongue and reveal an ugly figure. With a smile, he said diligently through the contract message

"Don't worry, boss. In fact, I have vaguely felt it now. Now I just need to go up to eliminate the interference and make sure."

"Oh? Do you feel it now?" Wang Yi originally brought En Zuo to try it, but he didn't expect the effect to be good.

"If the asteroid really diverts to Mars and crashes, then it may be the egg sheath from the abyssal Zerg. It may be that it feels the threat here and first goes to Mars to collect some raw materials for development..."———— ———
