Compared with last time, in just a few months, the underground fortress has more than doubled in size, and there is currently an underground passage connecting the accelerator's underground observation station - in the century-old plan of "Taiya", it will Build the moon into an absolute defensive base. Unless it encounters star-destroying force, it will be mankind's strongest "satellite".
However, due to the rush of the project, only the air circulation system was installed in the new command hall, and the gravity module was not yet installed. Therefore, everyone had to fumble forward, otherwise they would jump up accidentally. Even the seat has a temporary safety belt to fix the body.
"Mr. Ye, since the artificial gravity is not in place, we have to make do with stainless steel cups." He Mo handed him a stainless steel cup with a smile: "Be careful of burning your mouth."
"Is there a magnet underneath?" Ye Ming placed the cup on the table in an area indicated as a tea cup, and clearly found an attraction.
"Well, so when you pick up the cup, you have to turn it slightly sideways, otherwise it will spill easily."
Ye Ming nodded, then moved the microphone to the front and looked at the big screen in front of him.
The command hall of the underground fortress is laid out in a standard information-based command format. At the front is a giant screen 20 meters wide and 15 meters high, which is comparable to a movie theater - in fact, it can really be used to show movies. .
There is a space of about three meters in front of the large screen, with a three-dimensional holographic projection device built above it, and behind it are four rows of command desks arranged in an arc.
At this time, the command desk was full of staff. Some of them wore VR glasses, or used tablets, laptops, etc., but everyone was performing their duties and completing their work nervously.
"Aita, take a look at the overall situation."
As Ye Ming's voice sounded, the big screen flashed twice, and then the ultra-high-definition picture taken by the orbiting lunar satellite was displayed.
In the picture, the two-dimensional space expansion system has been capped. If it looked like a Mercedes-Benz icon in briefs before, now it is a "big nut" welded in the center of the pants - this nut has a hollow center, which is enough to this day. Fully fifty meters.
It can even be said that the two-dimensional space expansion system is essentially an accelerator.
At this time, countless machines were undergoing a tense evacuation.
In the room, one after another instructions were also sounded.
Ye Ming looked at the summary of the tasks again, turned around and asked, "Is the nuclear power plant ready?"
"The three special power stations are fully ready, and we have connected the power plants invested by Lao Mei and others to the grid, just in case the Guanghan base trips."
Ye Ming nodded, and then laughed: "Isn't the beauty so arrogant that she wants to give her money or something?"
"Isn't it affectionate to talk about money?" He Mo smiled and pursed his lips in front of him: "Everyone has a share in this experiment."
Ye Ming followed her gaze and saw more than one foreign commander.
"Since we arrived at Youmu Star and made contact with Youmu Star, Lao Mei's desire to cause trouble has faded away. At least in Taiyue, they cooperate very well."
"Well... after all, humans have already dealt with aliens. You said it's okay to strive for some profit distribution, but it's really boring to fight among themselves." Ye Ming nodded with deep understanding, and then concentrated on watching the task process.
Time passed slowly, and soon all the preliminary tasks were shown as completed.
Ye Ming glanced at the time, it was exactly eight o'clock in the evening.
After taking a deep breath, he pulled the microphone in front of him.
"Aita, the first ring accelerator is activated."
"Roger, start the first ring accelerator."
As Aita's voice fell, the huge accelerators of tens of kilometers began to light up one by one.
After a while, the second ring accelerator started.
"Start the two-dimensional space membrane generator."
Following Ye Ming's voice, an almost transparent net appeared in the big hollow "nut" from the air downwards.
"Prepare for 2D preparation."
Then, deep inside the huge robotic arm, with the support of the anti-gravity force field, the two-dimensionally designed structure was lifted high and came into contact with the two-dimensional space membrane from bottom to top.
In an instant, the large transparent net took on color.
Time passed by, and when all the structures were two-dimensional, Ye Ming took a deep breath.
"Encapsulated execution."
Visible to the naked eye, the two-dimensional space membrane begins to slowly shrink.
While shrinking, it also slowly curled up.
…
Two long hours passed.
When all instructions were executed, a "rocket" ten meters high and more than two meters in diameter floated quietly in mid-air.
From the appearance, it does look like a soft and bright grain of rice - the long-grained fragrant kind.
In the command hall, everyone looked at Mi Li silently, not daring to raise their breath, let alone make a sound.
Even Ye Ming didn't know whether to declare success when the two-dimensional space membrane was encapsulated by graphene material and then sent into the cavity.
From an engineering perspective, this slightly unsatisfactory rice grain was indeed successful.
The reason why it is somewhat unsatisfactory is that due to time constraints, the super accelerator cannot construct a purely neutron-structured projectile. Therefore, this time the cavity is made of a mixture of high-temperature-resistant alloy and neutron film-structured warheads.
Theoretically, apart from its lower structural strength and fear of atmospheric friction, its power is not compromised - whether it is used as a live ammunition or an "armor-piercing projectile", it has sufficient destructive power.
In the silence, the phone next to Ye Ming rang.
Everyone turned back instantly and looked at Ye Ming's location.
Listening to the phone ringing, Ye Ming seemed to be waking up from a dream. He took a look at the display and immediately answered the phone.
For the first time, the leader's voice was not as steady as usual.
"Ye Ming, how's it going? Why is there no movement?"
Ye Ming closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a moment, a smile appeared on his lips.
“The leadership, engineering speaking, has been successful.”
"That……"
"Since it is a sub-light speed missile, it has to be tested for its power before it can be declared successful." Ye Ming squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the rice grains floating quietly in the air, and said softly: "Do you want to try firing it?"
On the phone, BOSS's breathing became noticeably heavier: "Wait a moment! Don't hang up the phone!"
Ye Ming hummed slightly, then looked at everyone.
Everyone in the command hall had stood up and looked at him anxiously.
Ye Ming waved to everyone and closed his eyes.
In his mind, he quickly sorted through the possible targets - there is no doubt that the target in the asteroid belt is reliable and the most realistic.
So……
A metallic asteroid named XBB23568 appeared in front of him.
The asteroid is about one kilometer long, which fits the size of a super battleship.
Soon the leader's voice sounded again.
"You choose a target in the asteroid belt for test firing!"
"XBB23568." Ye Ming opened his eyes and said solemnly: "Located in the asteroid belt, irregular cuboid, one kilometer long, made of metal."
The leader also responded in a deep voice: "Agree!"
Ye Ming took a deep breath: "Aita, the intended target, XBB23568!"
"Goal set."
"emission!"
Roaring lowly, Ye Ming clenched his fists suddenly.
A second later, a blue light suddenly appeared from the tail of the rice grain floating high in the void.
With a "swish", it disappeared without a trace.
