Chapter 90 It's Waking Up(1/2)

The sound echoed in the space capsule, sounding calm and gentle. However, Bala only felt a thunder sound in her heart - why would anyone still be on this star shuttle?!

She immediately clenched her fist. The magnetic device on the soles of her feet was turned on, sucking her feet on the ground. Then she turned around, pulled out a small electric stun gun from her waist, and pointed directly at the position behind her where she made a sound.

She saw a person standing at the cabin door. This person... she had seen, the guard who issued her pass.

In her impression, the guard was a carefree guy, a little lustful, and coveted himself for a long time. In the past, he always had a lazy expression on his face. He would only be excited when he saw a beautiful girl, and then watched the girl go away.

But at this moment, the man stood straight, pursing his lips, with a calm expression, and seemed to be...

A saint.

It is the kind of saint who has firm faith and finally hears the final revelation and call of God, intending to martyrize himself, and the kind of peaceful and satisfied expression unique to the saint at the last moment of his life.

This expression means that it is not accidental that the man appears here. At least he knows his identity and why he is here.

So Bala held the stun gun tightly, trying to make himself look as calm as he said, "Who are you? What did you mean just now?"

"That's an antimatter bomb." The man's eyes crossed Balah's shoulder and landed on the "hourglass". "There is one gram of hydrogen inside and one gram of antihydrogen. Once it is annihilated, it will explode. At least three nodes will be destroyed."

He withdrew his gaze and looked at Bala's eyes: "It will also cause a mortal explosion. The substance ejected during the explosion will produce a recoil force, pushing the entire base station off the orbit. Considering the current rotation direction of the base station, Miss Bala, where will it deviate?"

He did not want Barra to answer this question. Instead, he asked and answered himself: "It would be biased towards the Earth. If it was a complete Endless Deep Space, it would have the ability to correct the orbit of self-correction. But at that time, it would slowly fall towards the Earth - no one could stop it."

"This is a 2 billion tons of artificial celestial body. It carries a lot of fuel and even many antimatter bombs similar to that behind you. Once it hits the earth, do you know what kind of disaster it will cause?"

Barra couldn't help but look slightly at the small "hourglass" with her eyes wide open.

Now, she does know what that is.

But she didn't know why the instructions she gave herself were like this.

"...I know." She said in a stern voice.

"No, you don't know." The man shook his head slightly, "What is the most terrible disaster you can imagine? Destroy a continent and irritate the ancient gods? None of them are. It's much worse than that."

The man sighed and walked a few steps in place. The magnetic device at the soles of his feet made him look a little heavy. His expression slowly changed, from calmness to a little excited.

Barra understands this expression. This is an expression that everyone who has been in space for a long time may appear - something that is suppressed in the heart for too long, and the vast and indifferent space strengthens this depression.

If you don’t tell some things, you will drive people crazy.

The man stopped, looked up his head, looked at the stun gun in Bala's hand, and laughed: "Do you know why we built this space base station?"

"For immigration," Barra said.

"For immigration." The man repeated, "What to escape? Ancient God?"

"What else can it be?" Bala felt a little calmer. This man... seemed to be planning to talk to him for a while - his secret should have been hidden in his heart for too long.

"Haha." The man shook his head and patted it lightly on the bulkhead. So the protective plate outside the star shuttle slowly closed, and the dim starlight in the vast universe and the earth like a colorful marble appeared in the field of view in the distance.

"What are you doing?! It's dangerous!" Barra exclaimed.

There are often tiny meteorites in the universe. There is no atmospheric protection here. During the years of construction of space base stations, a considerable amount of energy has been spent on repairing parts that are often destroyed by tiny meteorites. Many people joke that this is a battlefield for gunfire and bullets - although the density of bullets is not that high. Every one or two months, it is always heard that people walking in space were hit by micro meteorites and bloomed.

The skylight glass in the cockpits on both sides of the Star Shuttle is specially made. But the middle part is not. If you put away the external protective panels in such a space, if you unfortunately get a micro-meteorite, it will be impossible for both of you to survive.

A slightly mocking smile appeared on the man's lips: "Miss Barra has the awareness of carrying this antimatter bomb to the node and intending to detonate, but will he be afraid of death?"

"I didn't-" Bala subconsciously refuted him, but quickly stopped.

The man laughed again: "You don't know that, you just execute the order. Then I tell you, what we need to escape."

He pointed his hand at the earth far away: "It is it. It is a huge living being. It is about to wake up."

"What are you talking about..." Barra couldn't help but want to see the earth. But she didn't turn around and still pointed the gun at the man.

But the next moment she found that the expression on the man's face had changed.

He seemed to have seen something terrible. He looked stagnant at first, then opened his mouth slightly and widened his eyes.

Barra thought that the man wanted this low-level trick to deceive himself and turn around and then suppress himself. But then she found that the man strode towards her, or towards the transparent bulkhead.

"Stand there and don't move!" Bala shouted,

But the man turned a deaf ear to her warning and kept his pace for a moment.

Bala gritted her teeth and pulled the trigger. The blue light hit the man, and the slight burnt smell passed in an instant. However, the man did not pause at all and continued to walk forward.

The stun gun did not work for him. But Bala realized that the man's target was not her. So she finally turned around and looked at the distant earth with the man.

Then her expression became the same as this man.

The earth looks like a marble. In fact, it is much larger than a marble, and is similar to a grapefruit in size.

Now they found that a small red dot appeared at one end of the grapefruit, which was the location of the Antarctic. It looked like a colorful face. Acne appeared.

But both of them realized that the area of ​​this "acne" may be as large as one-quarter of the Antarctic continent.

"That's..." Barra exclaimed, subconsciously covering her mouth, as if she could touch the terrifying red spot.

The man stared at that location for a while and whispered: "It should be a volcanic eruption."

"Such a big volcano?" Barra looked at him with wide eyes. "Didn't that mean that the entire Antarctic continent is just a volcano?"

The man slowly turned his head: "As long as it wants, there can be a volcano everywhere. Do you understand what I mean now? It is alive. We built this space base station to escape it, not the so-called ancient god. Even that ancient god wants to stay away from it!"

"It...you..." Bala looked at the shocking earth and looked at the man, "How did you know this? Who are you?"

But the man did not answer her words, just stared at her: "Do you still want to do that thing now? Transport this thing to the node? Then let this space base station hit the earth and wake it up in advance?"

Bala was stunned for a while, bit her lip and looked back at the hourglass: "I didn't mean to...but this order--"

"The emperor gave it to you." The man nodded, "Your Comrade No. 1 is the Emperor of the Empire."

"How is that possible?" Bala frowned, "He is still on the ground!"

"Why is it impossible?" The man's voice changed. Not only did his voice change, but his appearance also changed. The difference between people's appearance depends on certain tiny details. At present, these tiny details that have changed outline a completely different face.

This is a face that Bala is also familiar with.

She blinked in disbelief and took a step back slightly: "You are... Li Zhen?!"

"It's me," said Li Zhen. But Bala didn't realize that there was a playful smile hidden in his voice.

Bala felt confused, and felt that the calm that he had pretended to have disappeared before was completely cramped: "How could you... be here?"

"Because your emperor intends to bring a lot of people to die together," the man said, "but I can't let him do this."

"Now, if you don't want more people to die, you have to tell me, who else are your comrades at Tianji Station?"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

It seems that dawn has arrived early on the earth hundreds of thousands of kilometers away.

Li Zhen and Zhu Zhaoxu saw the red light from the south at the same time.

It seemed as if the sun had taken the wrong path and did not rise from the east, but rose from the south.

They even felt a slight vibration. It seemed as if someone was stomping his feet hard near them.

"What is that?" Zhu Zhaoxu put down his hand pointing to Gao Tian in confusion and frowned slightly.

Because he found that Li Zhen's face had also changed. In his impression, there was very little that could make this extremely powerful existence reveal such a look of fear.

Many people say that Li Zhen is no longer a human being, but a nearly god. Zhu Zhaoxu doesn't like this statement very much. However, he knows that his subconscious mind is more inclined to agree with this statement. So the change in his expression on this person's face makes him even more uneasy.

He realized something very terrible happened.

He saw Li Zhen staring at the light red clouds in the south, and not saying a word for ten seconds. Then, the terrible momentum that he was almost trying to kill himself on the spot was faded.

Li Zhen turned his face and glanced at Zhu Zhaoxu, and announced in a calm tone: "It's about to wake up."

"Who?" Zhu Zhaoxu asked subconsciously.

But the next moment he found the answer himself.

"You said... it?" Zhu Zhaoxu couldn't help but lower his voice and pointed at his feet, as if he was afraid of waking up something.

Li Zhen knew that the emperor's reaction was exactly the same as he had been ten years ago. After just learning the news, for a long time, he did not dare to use his superpowers anymore, and even walked with ease. Although he knew that these things had no effect on the huge existence under his feet, the fear buried deep in his heart told him that you would feel better if you did this.

"I won't kill you anymore. Zhu Zhaoxu." Li Zhen said to him, "Now, we have more important things to do."

Zhu Zhaoxu, shrouded in great fear, wanted to answer a few decent words, but he just couldn't say them.

He knew that there were probably only a few people who felt so scared tonight - the man who knew the huge and extremely terrifying secret. He had never envied those ignorant and fearless civilians so much.

"You... say." He said a little.

"Stop all your activities against the Tianba Station. I will negotiate with Ying resolutely. Then, start evacuating." Li Zhen said.

"Evacuate to the space base station?"

"Yes."

“But there has not been built yet!”

"Then implement Plan No. 2."

Zhu Zhaoxu certainly knew the No. 2 plan. This was the final plan that the original plan was implemented under the most pessimistic situation.

They have imagined the most pessimistic situation. For example, when the project is halfway through, this situation today occurs.

The reason why Endless Deep Space is spliced ​​from one node after another is not only for the convenience of construction work, but also because once it cannot be fully constructed, those nodes built in advance can also form a small ecosystem.
To be continued...
