The Three-Body Problem: The Most Competent Wallfacer of All Time

Chapter 270 Formation of Simple Chain of Suspicion
On the other side of the sun, outside the orbit of Saturn, not yet at the orbit of Uranus.

Starship Earth, "Natural Selection" captain's room.

Dongfang Yanxu said: "We must make things clear."

"Yes, every second of delay is dangerous." Deputy Captain Levin said.

Then, both he and Akira Inoue looked at Dongfang Yanxu, and the meaning was very clear: you are the captain, you talk first.

Dongfang Yanxu did not have the courage.

But she had to take on her own mission, so she made a smart choice: she didn't avoid the eyes of the two vice-captains.

By this time, language is unnecessary and the eyes do all the communication:

fuel!

Although Jiang Yu filled up the fuel for them before departure, one-third of the first acceleration has been used up.

The course has been determined, but the voyage is still full of unknowns. It has been found that there are two pieces of interstellar dust on the way, and it must be accelerated two to three times during the voyage.

This is proven interstellar dust, and it may encounter other obstacles, after all, human behavior has been to such a distant deep space.

At the current speed of the spacecraft, it will take about 800 years to reach the destination!
During these 800 years, all the energy needs of the spaceship must be provided by limited fuel!

not enough.

Far from enough!

There is a lot of fuel in the supply ship, but the supply ship is not under the control of "Natural Selection". What if the supply ship refuses to refuel the "Natural Selection" on the way?
Even if the supply ship is willing to refuel all the warships, the fuel on Starship Earth is only enough for five warships to reach their destination.

But to be on the safe side, it's only enough for three spaceships.

Dongfang Yanxu said: "There is still a problem with accessories!"

There are only two copies of the key accessories of the "Natural Selection" left, and the set of accessories provided by Jiang Yu for the battleship is relatively comprehensive, but there is only one copy.

There are five sets of spare parts on the supply ship, but Starship Earth has seven battleships!
The preparation was really insufficient.

Well, it's not insufficient, but before departure, no one expected to face such a long-distance voyage.

It is possible to use the fully automatic machinery factory sent by Jiang Yu to manufacture new accessories, but some special metal raw materials are required.

These raw materials are actually available on the "Natural Selection", but they are used in other places and cannot be moved.

Otherwise, it is tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

Most of the key accessories on all the spaceships of Starship Earth can be used in common.

Nuclear engine parts can also be used after refitting with a fully automated machine factory.

Dongfang Yanxu said again: "Concentrate personnel on three to four warships?"

impossible!
There are too many people, and neither the ecological cycle system nor the hibernation system can accommodate them.

Well, now it's clear.

Some die, or all die.

The three of them seemed to be shocked by the thunder from the depths of the universe, and their hearts trembled in fear.

Someone has to be driven out, and the Garden of Eden can only hold a finite number of people.

We don't want to leave Eden.

So don't give up!

The eyes of the three people became firm: infrasonic hydrogen bomb!
Their spirits are now on the verge of collapse: too evil!We have become devils.

"But, what do they think?" Dongfang Yanxu asked softly.

They don't know what we think.

Well, suppose they also know we're not the devil.

The problem is still there.

They don't know what we think of them.

They don't know what we think of them how they think of us.

Further down, this is an infinite chain of suspicion... How to break this chain of suspicion?

comminicate?

Yes on Earth, but not in space.

Some die, or all die.

This is the survival deadlock set by space for Starship Earth, an insurmountable wall before which communication has no meaning.

Black, so fucking black.

Dongfang Yanxu resolutely said: "We can't delay any longer!"

Every second now, the danger is growing exponentially.

Levin immediately called up the control interface of the weapon system, and was about to target several other warships, but found that those warships had been locked by the weapon system!

The three people who were stunned looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time, indicating that it was not their fault.

Then there is only one person left with the authority to directly lock the target and launch an attack.

Dongfang Yanxu's eyes were blurred: "We are so stupid, after all, he is a person who changed history twice!
"He was the first to think of it all!"

At this time, the warship's siren sounded, and then Zhang Beihai's order came from the communication system: "Everyone put on space suits within 2 minutes, and the air in the battleship will be drained after 2 minutes."

Dongfang Yanxu and the others immediately understood Zhang Beihai's intentions, and they shouted, "Execute the order!"

While taking out the spacesuit from the emergency life support system in the command room, he quickly put it on.

Putting on a spacesuit is a compulsory course for every soldier of the space fleet. Only by training to put on a spacesuit within 20 seconds is a qualified soldier.

Of course, as Jiang Shiliu had predicted, after the demand for space suits increased, the problems that plagued the "Space Warrior" project team were easily solved.

Today's spacesuits are so lightweight that they're as simple as putting on a jacket, but putting on the boots and helmet takes some time.

The siren sounded like a death call, and Dongfang Yanxu and the others put on their spacesuits in only a dozen seconds, and then they immediately walked through the long corridor to the door of Zhang Beihai's cabin.

The scene when the "Natural Selection" set sail and fled reappeared, the bulkhead became transparent, and they could see that Zhang Beihai had already put on the space suit and was operating the weapon system at this time!

Levin shouted: "What are you doing?"

Just like last time, they could only watch helplessly, there was absolutely no way to stop Zhang Beihai.

"Children." Zhang Beihai's eyes were as calm as water: "Let me do this!"

Tears welled up from Dongfang Yanxu's eyes, and she shouted, "Let me in, let's go to hell together!"

Zhang Beihai finished the last operation, then drained the air in the spaceship before saying, "Dongfang, think about it, was it possible for us to make such a choice before?
"No way, but now that we've made it, space has turned us into new humans.

"A new civilization is being born, and a new morality is being formed.

"Looking back a long time later, what we did was probably the normal thing to do and we wouldn't go to hell."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Beihai firmly pressed the attack button.

Inside and outside Zhang Beihai's cabin fell into a maddening silence, and the four of them didn't even dare to breathe hard.

A few seconds later, the weapon system showed that all the infrasonic hydrogen bombs had hit the target.

However, the communications staff immediately discovered that the "Blue Space" was not affected by the infrasonic hydrogen bomb, but was concentrating fire on the "Ultimate Law".

Then there is only one explanation. The "Blue Space" is the same as the "Natural Selection", all crew members are also wearing spacesuits, and the air in the battleship has been drained.

The combat staff officer asked: "Do you want to continue the attack?"

Zhang Beihai hesitated for two seconds: "Continue to attack!"

Now it's a life-and-death situation, and there can be no chances.

At this moment, the communication system of the spacecraft automatically received a communication video of Jiang Yu:

"I hope I'm not late. If there are only a few warships left in the fleet, please don't attack each other for the time being. Listen to me!"

Zhang Beihai leaned on the chair, feeling exhausted all over: "It's over!"
