Chapter 222 Despair, Showdown
Just after Tang An opened the image communication, images appeared again on the large screen in the military surveillance room there.
This time, the stimulation and shock of seeing alien algae attached to the hull was hundreds of times greater. The reason is very simple. The place that was supposed to be located in the main control room is now gone.
There were professionals present at the scene who knew at a glance that the main control room was completely stripped of the Earth II spacecraft by some kind of impact or other attack from outside.
"Then, that's the main control room." An engineer present stared at his eyes, his face full of collapse and disbelief.
Except for this engineer, everyone else dared not say anything. In this case, others really don’t know what to say. It’s better not to say anything at this time.
General Seymour also had his eyes wide open, trying to speak several times, but they were stuck in his throat. He was not a professional, but also knew the importance of the main control room.
All previous plans revolve around the main control room, such as restarting the equipment in the main control room, or even if the equipment is damaged, you can replace it with spare equipment from the spare parts room.
In this way, you can gain control of the entire Earth II spacecraft.
But now the main control room is gone, what can I do?
General Seymour, after a moment of silence, asked the first sentence of an engineer next to him.
"The spacecraft does not have a main control room, and it can still operate normally?"
In General Seymour's idea, the main control room is equivalent to a person's head. If the head is gone, people will definitely die.
But now, the spacecraft is obviously still flying normally. As for whether it has deviated from orbit, I don’t know, at least it hasn’t been completely finished.
The engineer came back from shock and despair, organized some language, and began to explain a principle to General Seymour.
The main control room is very important, but in fact, the main control room is just a center that can control each system. Even if the main control room is destroyed, other systems will still execute according to the previously set procedures.
It's just that it can't be changed any more.
This also made everyone understand why the spacecraft's defense system and repair system were not effective before. These judgment modules were all in the main control room, and the main control room was gone. Other systems could only execute their own plans, because no one told them what to do next.
"In other words, that means there is still room for recovery?" General Seymour's eyes lit up.
After hearing this, the engineer shook his head quickly: "No, there is no chance. When we designed the Earth II spacecraft, although each system could operate independently, it required specialized personnel to go there. Even if professionals go there, it would require very complicated instructions. At present, we can't do this at all."
Yes, now they can't get out of the artificial space at all, how can they do this?
"Bastard, how did you guys design the spacecraft system?" General Seymour also cursed angrily at this time.
He knew that this was indeed impossible to accomplish.
Although there is a chess piece outside, this chess piece does not completely obey its own instructions.
Even if you listen to yourself completely, there is only one person on the other side, and the current situation outside is definitely impossible to complete by one person.
In addition, there is also the threat of alien creatures.
The glimmer of hope appeared in General Seymour's heart, which was also shattered.
"It seems that I can only follow my previous thoughts." General Seymour thought in his mind at this time, his eyes narrowed.
Now the main control room of the spacecraft is gone, and there is a threat of alien creatures. The inside of the spacecraft is definitely a dangerous place. Fortunately, the man-made space is the last refuge.
Since this is the case, it is better to concentrate the energy of the spacecraft on the central equipment of artificial space to ensure its existence here.
In that way, you can live a few hundred years.
"Connect me a safe route and no one is allowed to eavesdrop on my calls." General Seymour called his confidant at this time and ordered.
In this situation, human beings are over. The so-called "people who do not commit suicide for themselves" is to punish themselves. General Seymour is now considering how to extend the existence of artificial space and at the same time protect their own interests.
This is particularly important.
Although the situation is very desperate, it is not impossible to think that I still have hundreds of years to live.
Hundreds of years, it's been a long time.
However, to achieve this, the cooperation of the chess piece outside is also required.
It was only through previous contact that Seymour knew that the other party was not that easy to deal with, so he had to talk to the other party alone on a private line.
In this way, he can negotiate terms with the other party during the call, and even if he promises the other party some benefits, it is not impossible.
In addition, he also needs to make an agreement with the other party in advance, because the existence of this person cannot be suppressed. Sooner or later, other senior military leaders and the coalition government will know about it.
What Seymour has to do is to have a good relationship with this person before everyone.
The line was connected again, Seymour took a deep breath, and then said in a friendly tone: "Mr. Wang?"
Tang An was also waiting for the other party's response at this time. After all, he didn't know what to do in this situation. The main control room was gone. Even if Tang An didn't understand, he realized that something was wrong.
At this time, he had no other ideas. If he could cooperate with the coalition government to do something, he would do it.
After all, now is a time that concerns the life and death of the entire human race.
Hearing the sound from the communicator, Tang An immediately said: "I am here, General Seymour, what should we do now?"
At present, Tang An really hopes that he can help.
In the communicator, General Seymour said: "Mr. Wang, you are a smart person, so I will no longer talk to you in an official accent. You have also seen that the situation is quite serious now, and the main control room no longer exists. This means that it is almost impossible to restart the self-test system of the spacecraft and the defense system."
Tang An didn't say anything. He could hear that Seymour seemed to be planning to show off with him.
"Mr. Wang, I am working with you with sincerity. You are actually very unsafe inside the spacecraft and may die at any time. So you need to return to the artificial space as soon as possible. However, before that, there are a few things you need to do, which will also be of great benefit to yourself."
"What do you want me to do?" Tang An asked.
"I think of a way to turn off the power system of the spacecraft to ensure the energy supply of artificial space. In addition, connect the database of artificial space to modify a little data." General Seymour's voice was very low.
