In the thousands of years of human civilization, some people have been obsessed with fighting for power and wealth, while others have looked up at the stars and explored the mysteries of the universe.
This is the theme of a seminar led by the Meridian National Space Administration, with participants from world-renowned scientists and researchers in astronomy, astrophysics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, geology and other related professions..
Frank Drake, one of the initiators, gave the opening speech
"As we all know, since 3,000 years ago, a group of scholars have looked up at the stars and put forward research theories about the universe and stars. But science and technology at that time were backward, and humans had not yet conquered the sky, let alone higher altitudes."
"In fact, it was not until 1945 that the Galaxy Space Exploration Company established by the Lin family launched the first artificial satellite, and other countries in our country lagged even further behind. In 1957, the Soviet Union launched its first satellite, and in 1958, Meridian launched its first satellite, the Explorer.……"
At this point, he saw that the scientists and researchers underground were a little impatient. He rubbed his fingers to speed up his speech, and soon came to the highlight of the seminar.
"According to the information released by the Lin family and Ghana, the 214 satellites they launched were all earth exploration satellites, and they have never launched an outer space exploration satellite. I would like to criticize their conservative attitude here. Only expansion into outer space can promote technological progress."
"Precisely because they are stagnant, Meilijian, as the second most powerful country on the planet, has the responsibility and obligation to help humans understand the wider universe and starry sky. Therefore, I am here to advocate that everyone join the Star Project initiated by the Meridian National Space Administration and launch the first external exploration satellite!"
As soon as this sentence was finished, everyone in the lower level started making noises and looked at Frank Drake on the stage in shock.
Astrophysicist of the German Federation Lecker Clemens raised his hands and stood up, pushing up the glasses on the bridge of his nose. Ask"560" with a serious expression
"I don't agree with your proposal. You also said that the Lin family and Ghana's big technology have been leading the world for decades. There must be a reason for what they don't do. I once communicated with Einstein, and he said that the reason why the Lin family did not launch satellites to explore outer space is because we do not even fully understand the planet beneath our feet!"
"There are still 34.8% of unknown areas on land that have not been explored. Human technology has not yet broken through in drilling below 1,000 meters underground. The ocean, which occupies more than 70% of the earth's area, also has many unsolved mysteries."
"The most important thing is that the universe is too far-reaching and vast. Will launching an outer space probe rashly lead to possible extraterrestrial civilizations?"
A well-reasoned argument won the approval of most scientists and researchers.
Bang bang bang!
The applause was particularly warm, but it made Frank's face turn red. The applause was like a slap in the face.
Thinking of the space agency launching The generous terms offered, he took a deep breath and retorted
"You also said that it is possible, which means that extraterrestrial civilization may not exist. I am right to say that!"
Leker shook his head. Humanity knows too little about outer space and there is not enough evidence to prove the existence of aliens.
Seeing that he did not continue to object, Frank proudly took advantage of the opportunity to pursue
"Speaking of possible extraterrestrial civilizations, I would like to ask Professor Laker. Will an advanced civilization that can travel across galaxies do any harm to us? Just like, would you step on an ant on the roadside to kill it and do something meaningless?"
"Thousands of years of human history have shown that the more advanced science and technology are, the more powerful the productive forces will be.
Wars and conflicts between countries are ultimately conflicts between interests and living space.
This principle also applies to civilizations.
Civilizations with interstellar navigation technology must solve the problem of living space.
After all, there are countless planets to choose from in the universe, so there is no need to focus on the earth, right?"
"Besides, conflicts of interest are even more of a joke. Do we, Meili Jian, have conflicts of interest with the cannibals in the Amazon jungle? We look down on their rags, and we won’t send troops to snatch them. In the same way, aliens who came to Earth hundreds of light years away are interested in oil or natural gas?"
At this Frank shrugged and laughed out loud thinking what he said was humorous.
Some scientists felt that the metaphor was not appropriate, but the truth was indeed easy to understand, and they also laughed in agreement. The huge conference hall was filled with joy. In such an atmosphere, everyone had forgotten the embarrassing situation at the beginning and was optimistic about launching an outer space probe.
Lecker could not convince Frank, so he stood up angrily and walked away.
A small number of scientists who agreed with his point of view looked at the blind The optimistic people left a message that you will regret and walked out of the conference hall.
Frank snorted disapprovingly and said loudly and pointedly.
"I am afraid that some people have collected black money from a certain family to prevent Meilijian from developing outer space exploration technology, and are afraid that we will overtake them in a corner. Okay, let’s get down to business. Let’s discuss and vote on what information should be emitted by the first outer space probe."
"Just like when we make friends, we first introduce ourselves. The Melician Space Agency decided to launch the following message to express our friendly attitude to possible extraterrestrial civilizations."
Next, he introduced the content projects to be launched, including information on human reproduction, information on civilizations of various countries on the earth, human body A total of 21 types of information were included.
After a show of hands at the conference, human gene fragments, human body It is not very polite or safe to launch this information into outer space, just like it is not polite or safe for a man and a woman to go to a hotel just after they meet.
After the meeting, the director of the Meridian National Space Administration came forward and organized a grand banquet to entertain scientists and researchers from all over the world.
At the same time, a The press conference announced the resolutions and results achieved at the meeting.
"This is Meilijian’s first step into outer space exploration, and it is also a big step for mankind to take a step away from the cradle of the earth. There are many conservative people among human beings who are blocking the progress of society and technology. They only want to grab the last penny of profits by monopolizing advanced technology."
"Meili Jian is willing to be a suicide squad to expand the territory of human civilization and be the first fearless brave man who dares to eat crabs!"
On the second day after the meeting, the headlines around the world were all about the beautiful Jian's exploration of outer space. The
Washington Daily, which represents the will of the White Palace, even used the title"Who is hindering the pace of human exploration of space?" ?" This kind of appalling headline was used to attract attention.
When Laker was having breakfast in the hotel, his tooth ached when he saw the news in this newspaper.
He shook out the newspaper and showed it to the scientists who had left the meeting together, and he felt indignantly. said
"The new president of Meijian is crazy. The cold war with Soviet Russia is getting more and more intense, and he wants to drag Ghana and the Lin family into the whirlpool. Do they want to have a global nuclear war and kill all mankind?"
Plank Daisy from Gaul frowned and took a breath after reading the news report.
"You are right Professor Lecker, I also think the new president is crazy!"
After that, she handed the newspaper to the other scientists next to her, and discussed with Lecker sadly.
"What should we do to stop stupid politicians from provoking war with technological competition? We cannot sit back and watch the situation develop! Einstein once said at the Global Conference on Scientific and Technological Progress that he did not know what weapons mankind would use in the Third World War, but the Fourth World War would definitely be sticks and stones!"
"Once a global nuclear war breaks out, mankind will regress back to primitive society. That would be really terrible!"
Leker nodded. He was also a participant in the conference that year, so he naturally knew this sentence.
Soon other scientists and researchers also finished reading the news reports. They were also trembling with anger, and their hearts were full of fear and worry about the future.
"I plan to go to the Lin Institute of Science and Technology to meet Einstein first and see if I can use him to meet Lin Feng, the patriarch of the Lin family."
"Do any of you want to come with me, let's stop World War III together!"
Lecker stood up and said impassionedly, scanning the crowd with bright eyes.
The scientists and researchers present raised their hands without hesitation, and no one rejected his initiative. These scientists all have lofty ideals and a high sense of responsibility.
Plank Daisy raised her hand and asked with some confusion.
"Why don't we divide into two groups, one group to persuade the Lin family, and the other group to persuade the Meilican government? Wouldn't it be better to have a two-pronged approach? To untie the bell, the person tying the bell must convince Meili Jian to completely solve the problem!"
Lekel spread his hands and sighed helplessly.
"A wise man will not reason with a reckless man. It is obvious that Meili insists on being the only one in the family. Even if we all go, we still cannot convince the reckless government, which is full of zero-sum game ideas!"
……
"Are you sure you have to pay her $4,000 in compensation? The name James Howlett sounds familiar!"
The big and round bar owner looked at the strong man in front of him, thinking about where he had heard this name.
But after a while, he gave up. His mind was filled with Playboy cover girls, and he really didn't want to torture the bar owner who was about to dry up. brain cells
"Oh, I just forgot to mention that there is also a ransom of 3,200 US dollars. Since you want to protect her, you should pay it together. Brother, let me tell you that she is an extremely rare American-Japanese mixed race. Look at her long legs and 36D. If I hadn't seen you generous, I wouldn't have let her go!"(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
A lustful look flashed in the bar owner's eyes. He looked at the girl who was timidly hiding behind James Howlett, and felt that his throat was a little dry.
Gudong!
He tried hard He swallowed and waited for Kaizi to pay.
After hearing what the boss said, James didn't answer and took out a wad of U.S. dollars from his bag.
"This is your last chance, don't increase the price temporarily, okay?"[]
Without counting, he threw the money into the boss's arms and was about to leave with the girl behind him.
Watching the two people walking outside, the boss counted the money, and it turned out to be more than 12,000 US dollars.
"Wait a minute, I forgot to include her food and accommodation expenses here. You have to pay another 10,000, no, you have to pay another 100,000 US dollars before she can leave!"
James Howlett sighed, turned around and stared at the boss like a lone wolf.......
"I warned you, man, you shouldn't have fooled me!"
Having experienced the Meili Jian Civil War, World War I, and World War II, he had 90,000 or not 100,000 lives in his hands. His murderous aura was so intense that it would scare a tiger into fleeing without a fight. The boss felt as if there was a sea of red in front of him. There were countless human limbs floating on the sea, and the turbulent waves picked up the fragments and rushed them down towards him. Step, step, step!
James Howlett walked towards the boss in a hurry and in a square step.
Every step seemed to step on the boss's heart. His face became paler and paler, and his breathing gradually became difficult.
Ga!
He took a long breath, and after the boss made a weird sound, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground. On the ground, green liquid flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
He was scared to death without being punched or kicked, and died without any scars on his body.
"Bah, coward!"
James Howlett spat in contempt, and put away the sharp claws stretched out on his fists.
The eyes of the little girl following him lit up, as if she saw the same kind of people, and the guard in her heart gradually disintegrated.
"My name is Ophiela Grace, and the name of the island country is Xiao Chieko. Thank you for saving me!"
James Howlett glanced back and nodded very coldly.
"You can call me James or you can call me Wolverine. Now come with me. If this guy dies, the thugs outside will be in trouble if they see it. I'm not afraid of killing people, but I'm afraid of trouble!"
After saying that, he opened the door and walked out calmly and quickly, not at all like a murderer who had just scared a gangster to death.
Little Chieko followed obediently, locked the door with her backhand, and brushed her nails against the floor. The pop-up boss inserted it into the keyhole, destroying the door lock structure to ensure that it could not be opened.
Soon they reached the first floor, and a group of gangsters with guns and baseball bats surrounded them.
"Uncle Wolverine has negotiated with your boss and paid more than 10,000 yuan in ransom and compensation. What else do you want to do?"
After seeing the power of James Howlett, Chieko became more courageous now that she had a backer.
She turned away from her usual submissiveness and loudly rebuked the gangsters who usually bullied her.
The gang leader was stunned for a moment, surprised that the little lamb also Dare to stand up to others
"Shut up you little bitch, where is our boss?"
Little Chieko rolled her eyes and waved her hands impatiently.
"How do I know that your boss is not coming down? Maybe he is hiding money. He is a stingy guy who loves money as much as his life. How can he come down with so much money?"
The gangster leader tilted his head and thought for a moment. This is indeed the nature of the boss. He waved his hand to let the boys disperse.
"Now that you've paid the money, get out!"
James Howlett walked out of the encirclement calmly, even if several rifles were pointed at him, he looked at it as nothing.
After leaving the Night Beauty Bar, Xiao Chieko took the initiative to hold his hand, but was mercilessly beaten. avoided
"What a piece of wood, it pisses me off!"
She stamped her foot fiercely, and the stalwart figure on her chest swayed a few times, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.
Without any pause, James 2.5 Howlett came to a modified super extended version of the bulletproof RV, and pulled Open the door and sit in the driver's seat.
Chieko took a few steps quickly, opened the passenger door and sat in, pouting and asking
"I finally met someone of the same kind, but in the end, he was still a piece of wood who didn't understand the style. Uncle, are you a gay? Are there gays among mutants?"
James Howlett frowned and glared at her coldly.
He didn't know why the girl who was quiet and elegant before suddenly became talkative and talked about taboo topics. She didn't look like a teenage girl.
"I'd better call you Ofila. I don't like anyone or anything with island elements. And if there is nothing wrong, just shut your mouth. If you don’t learn to talk nonsense at a young age, I will leave you to Laura Delis to discipline you when you get to the Ark Base."
After he finished speaking, he pushed away Chieko who was getting closer, started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and sped towards a nearby town. There was a newly awakened mutant waiting for him to find.
Chieko felt aggrieved. She was crying with a sad face, and her big watery eyes were filled with tears.
"Why are you so mean? I have lost my parents since I was a child. I wander around outside and there is no one to teach me.���What to say! Humph, you made me angry, so I won’t tell you my little secret!"
Her little cherry mouth was so pouted that it could have hung a soy sauce bottle.
But James Howlett seemed not to see or hear, and still concentrated on holding the steering wheel, observing the road conditions and surrounding environment.
The RV was quiet for a while. You could even hear her breathing, and neither of them paid attention to the other and fell into silence.
After a while, Chieko couldn't help it anymore, and turned her little head around to apologize awkwardly.
"Sorry uncle, I shouldn't have made you angry!"
"The reason why I said so many words is that I want to have a deeper bond with you. I am afraid that you, uncle, will be like the fellow mutants I met before and abandon me and run away in the face of being captured by the army."
