In the bridge room of the Kaiwu, everyone was in an extremely low mood. Everyone had little hope of finding the treasure of the Molowa Empire!
Even Junker Adam, the initiator of the incident who insisted on coming to the depths of the cosmic sea, had a hint of disappointment on his face at this time. The failure of two consecutive radar searches to locate the treasure shook Junker Adam's confidence.
This was completely different from the time he found the treasure. The first time Juncker Adam came here to hunt for treasure, he was very relaxed. Following the instructions from the signal transmitter, he arrived in the spacecraft, turned on the radar and found the expensive Padra crystal.
Science Officer Zhu Zhen's words made everyone's mood slightly better, but it could be seen from the depths of their eyes that they had great doubts about the effectiveness of Zhu Zhen's suggestions.
"Hmph, I just told the old guy to lie. How about it come true!" Hu Lan murmured while glaring at Junker Adam.
"Hu Lan, don't look for trouble. The old man has good intentions, and the chairman is also worried about that. We work together on important things now, and we are not entangled in small personal frictions!" Su Pu quietly pulled Hu Lan, Quietly waiting for Wang Jiacheng's decision.
"Chairman, the science officer's suggestion can be implemented. We can focus radar exploration in one direction, so as to increase the energy of tiny waveforms, combat interference from various particles in the universe, and improve accuracy!" said the radar operator from a professional perspective road.
"No, it can't be changed. We have been searching for a whole day. Giving up in the middle will make the previous efforts in vain! We may be close to finding the treasure, just one step, a small step!" Juncker Adam is like many people in life. Like old people, they are very stubborn and extremely repulsive to methods they have never experienced before. He still insisted on basing his experience on finding the treasure, and did not want to accept the scientific method proposed by Zhu Zhen.
The radar operator couldn't stand it anymore and explained: "Mr. Adam, in order to reduce the error this time, the radar on the Kaiwu specially turned on the minimum quantum wave speed, which is 30 times the speed of light. One round trip is a complete radar Positioning process. So within one day, our furthest detection and positioning distance is 15 light days. With the Kaiwu number as the center of the sphere and a radius of 15 light days, all places within the spherical airspace have been explored and no traces have been found. Della crystal. Massive macroscopic matter in the universe cannot exceed the speed of light under natural conditions. The location we are now is exactly where the signal transmitter was 7 days ago. No matter which direction it was running in the universe at that time, up to this moment, it The maximum distance will not exceed the spherical airspace with Kaiwu No. as the center and a radius of 7 light days. If the treasure exists and we can locate it using the existing methods, we should have discovered it long ago. The fact is that we have everything Not found. There are only two situations, either the treasure does not exist, or there is a problem with our detection method!"
The radar operator's well-founded analysis made Junker Adam speechless for a moment: "This... you..." After a long time, he didn't know how to refute.
Wang Jiacheng fully understood what was going on and said decisively: "Radar man, follow the science officer's advice and quickly explore the treasure. If nothing is found after one day, we will leave the cosmic sea immediately and end this expedition!"
At this moment, the voice of Kaiwu's main control optical brain sounded: "Alarm, alarm, alarm, the spacecraft will collide with a meteorite in 10 seconds. Please prepare for the collision!"
Not far from the Kaiwu, in the deep sky of the cosmic sea, a bluish-gray rock the size of a millstone rushed over at a high speed of 5,000 kilometers per second.
I don’t know where it comes from, and no one cares about it. It is common to encounter such meteorites occasionally in the cosmic sea. For the technology of the alien world, it is not too difficult to resist its impact.
"Safety officer, increase the energy input of the protective shield; all crew members, secure yourself to the nearest seat or any compartment wall of the spacecraft;..." Wang Jiacheng issued the orders one by one in an orderly manner without panicking at all.
This meteorite was discovered by radar just now when it was searching for the treasures of the Molowa Empire, and its hazards were assessed, and the Kaiwu No. was able to fight against it.
In fact, the best way is to move the Kaiwuhao's position or use a cannon to blast the opponent into pieces. Unfortunately, the current Kaiwuhao cannot do that at all.
In order to improve the accuracy of the radar, it is most reasonable for the spacecraft to remain stationary, which can also greatly improve the stability of the radar. Therefore, Wang Jiacheng decided to use the spacecraft to resist the meteorite impact.
As for using cannons to attack meteorites, I can only think about it. When fighting against the black hole, in order to reduce the mass of the spacecraft by 2%, Zhu Zhen and Hu Lan did not hesitate to abandon the weapons and ammunition they carried. There are no pirates in the cosmic sea, so it would be unnecessary to take them with you.
"Boom!!!" A deafening loud noise was transmitted along the Kaiwu's protective cover to the warehouse wall, and then rippled inside the air-filled spacecraft, entering the eardrums of each crew member, accompanied by The ship's hull shook violently.
The blue-gray meteorite carried huge kinetic energy and first smashed a huge crater into the protective shield, but it did not penetrate the protective shield. The blue protective cover has good elasticity, and the process of denting dissolves the kinetic energy of the rock. The continuous input of energy caused the protective shield to bounce up again, throwing the meteorite in another direction, and quickly disappeared into the dim deep sky.
The safety officer breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "What a danger. If our protective cover is lowered by 50 degrees, the huge crater on the protective cover just now will not be able to consume the kinetic energy of the meteorite and will hit the outer wall of the spacecraft, thus destroying it." Its physical structure has unimaginable consequences!”
"Haha, the chairman still had the foresight to strengthen the Kaiwuhao's protective shield before coming to the Universe Sea!" Hu Lan said appropriately.
"Flatterer!" Junker Adam curled his lips.
Wang Jiacheng ignored the private quarrel between the two of them and immediately said to the radar operator: "Don't stop, take action now!"
An energy wave thousands of times more powerful than before was shot out towards the depths of the cosmic sea. It was exactly the effect of the radar on the Kaiwu being concentrated in one direction.
On Earth, the country of the Bear has a fighter jet with a radar so powerful that it can roast a rabbit 1 kilometer away. The radar on the Kaiwu was countless times more powerful than it, and its energy intensity was even more incomparable.
At this moment, everyone was staring at the holographic image of the radar, hoping to find something. In particular, Junker Adam is more eager to find this treasure of the Morova Empire than others. He is old and will never have the chance to come back after leaving this time.
"Didi!" The radar siren sounded. Not only did it not cause panic, it actually made the entire bridge room cheer!
"I found it, I found it, haha, did I just say that there must be a treasure of the Molova Empire here!" Junker Adam was as excited as an old child, constantly hugging and celebrating with the people around him.
Suddenly someone rejected him. Junker Adam took a closer look and saw that it was Hu Lan. He snorted and went to find someone else.
A rare smile appeared on Wang Jiacheng's face. He sat back on the command chair, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. No matter what, this adventure won't go away empty-handed.
He became even more curious about Junker Adam's identity. How did the old man install the signal transmitter in advance?
The radar operator was nervously locating the Padra crystal and assessing its environment, and then reported to Wang Jiacheng.
"Hey, the direction of flight of this Padra crystal is the Unknown Galaxy. I remember Mr. Adam said that the Padra crystal he found was also heading in this direction. It's a bit strange why these crystals are moving in one direction. Is there anything behind it? Deep-seated reasons." Science Officer Zhu Zhen said to himself as he stared at the holographic image of the radar.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener sounded intentional. Following Zhu Zhen's words, Wang Jiacheng couldn't help but start thinking more. But he didn't get a clear answer, just a vague concept.
"Chairman, the Padra crystal is 3.85 light-days away from us, has a speed of 0.55 times the speed of light, and a mass of 130 tons. It is heading towards the void galaxy at high speed from the depths of the cosmic sea. According to the radar information, this Padra crystal It is surrounded by fine dust and many small meteorites. It is initially estimated that it has collided with a large meteorite, which slowed down the speed, causing the fragments and parts of the meteorite to fly at the same speed as it. These small meteorites The high-speed dust destroys the waveform detected by the radar, which is the main reason why we did not detect it the first two times!..." The radar operator carefully reported the detection situation.
"It's only 130 tons. It's not as good as the one I found last time, hey!" Hu Lan was disappointed after hearing this, and was not satisfied with the size of the Padra crystal at all.
Wang Jiacheng also has some regrets. 130 tons of Padra crystals can be sold for about 300 million yuan, which is not as good as the profit from the 9th reserve warehouse he found last time.
"Bang!" A pebble-sized meteorite hit the Kaiwu's protective cover. The slight sound reminded everyone that this was not a safe place and it was wise to leave quickly.
"Pilot, set off, target Padra Crystal!" Wang Jiacheng gave the order, and the Kaiwu embarked on the journey again, making a short-range hyperspace jump.
When it came out of hyperspace, it saw a large fuzzy fog in front of its eyes. It flashed past. It was the Padra crystal wrapped in many dust particles and small meteorites.
The driver skillfully turned the Kaiwu's huge body into the same direction as the Padra crystal, and then started 24 powerful plasma engines to catch up with the opponent.
This mist is moving at a high speed of 0.55 times the speed of light, and there are many small meteorites inside. The kinetic energy contained in any tiny object at this speed is very terrifying. Even with the existing protective capabilities of the Kaiwuhao, it cannot withstand their impact.
