Humanity has gone through decades of natural disasters, severe cold, severe heat, floods, volcanic eruptions, species extinction...until scientists fully predicted that the sun is aging rapidly, and in less than a hundred years the sun will explode directly due to thermal energy.
Destroy the earth and even affect the entire solar system.
Faced with the desperate atmosphere of the approaching doomsday, all human countries chose to unite together to form a coalition government and establish a true community with a shared future for mankind that was once only submitted verbally.
Regardless of skin color, national boundaries, or language, in this destiny they work together and struggle for the hope of survival of this species.
For the people at the bottom, this is an era of chaos. Some people take advantage of the collapse of order to magnify the darkness in their hearts, burn, kill and loot. Some people sink their hearts into the sea and choose to wait for death alone in silence. Some people face the end with hope and contentment.
Gods and Buddhas believe that if there is a hell, there should be gods. Even if you die, you can go to heaven...
In this era, some people have abandoned their faith and become staunch atheists, believing that mankind should save themselves; but at the same time, there are also people who believe in certain beliefs more firmly, hoping to achieve spiritual pursuit and comfort.
The reason why everyone is convinced of Lu Ming is not because of how fast Lu Ming's mind works. This is just one of the reasons. The more reason is that Lu Ming allows everyone to see in him something that many believers have been pursuing but have never seen.
The towering tree in the canyon towering into the clouds, the confident figure facing the snow-capped glacier among the icebergs...
Human beings need a hope and a faith.
They just found a place of faith.
…
Wang Lei is a soldier and a staunch atheist. Although many things that happened today are beyond his imagination, he still does not believe that gods exist in this world, but this does not prevent him from choosing to believe in hope.
So he came here again after having completed the mission of rescuing the Hangzhou underground city.
"Decided?"
At the car door, Lu Ming raised his eyes and asked softly.
"I am a soldier and a rescue worker sent by the coalition government. The mission on my shoulders will not end until all the engines on Earth are started. I should go to support Sulawesi."
Wang Lei saluted and said solemnly.
Lu Ming looked at him deeply, then stepped aside, and Wang Lei immediately got into the carrier vehicle from the side.
"Let's go, old man!"
After closing the car door, Lu Ming said to Han Ziang, "Target Sulawesi!"
"Yes!"
The old man agreed happily, and Lu Ming asked to take his family with him, but he didn't feel any discomfort, because without Lu Ming, they might have been buried in the canyon long ago.
Of course, it was mainly because of the faces of Li Shiqing and Han Duoduo and what Lu Ming said.
"Follow us so that I can truly protect your safety. As for the reason, you can understand that it is for Duoduo."
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance lovingly at Han Duoduo in the back row.
Duoduo has found a relative. Maybe the old man shouldn't hold her so tightly. They are blood relatives in the first place. I shouldn't keep her by my side and prevent them from seeing each other just because I raised her.
He thought so.
…
When the engine was pushed, the body of the carrier shuddered slightly and made a buzzing sound. After a moment, it suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Ming, who was about to lie down and sleep, raised his head and asked.
"them……"
Grandpa Han Ziang pointed to the front of the car.
Lu Ming looked down and saw seven or eight people in protective clothing standing in front of the car. They were members of Wang Lei's 171-11 rescue team.
"You go figure it out!"
Lu Ming smiled and said to Wang Lei.
Wang Lei frowned and nodded, then immediately got out of the car. A moment later...
After a while, he got into the car with a bunch of people and looked at Lu Ming.
"..."
Lu Ming twitched the corner of his mouth and pointed to the empty seat in the car, "Don't disturb my sleep~"
"That's great. Captain Wang Lei's rescue team is very familiar with the conditions in the snowy plains. They can avoid us taking many detours and reach Sulawesi faster."
Li Yiyi said with some surprise.
"I'm still waiting for your mechanical exoskeleton..."
Lu Ming tilted his head and said helplessly.
...
"Sulawesi is located in the Pacific Rim Volcanic and Seismic Zone, on the left side of the equator. After so many years of geological changes and evolution, it is no longer the volcano-prone area it once was. The surrounding seas have also completely changed due to the severe cold.
A glacier formed.”
Li Yi quickly danced on the keyboard between his fingers, and soon two straight lines were displayed on it. He clicked a confirmation button, "Old Li, I have sent the navigation to the in-car system and planned the nearest route.
vehicle route."
Lao Li nodded slightly to express receipt.
The driver was no longer Han Ziang. After all, the old man was old. Lu Ming was worried about his safety. After Wang Lei's team members got on the bus, he decisively chose to change the driver.
After all, we are young people, so if you are tired, just drive tired.
"How long does it take to reach Sulawesi at the fastest speed?"
Lu Ming looked at the map and asked. There are only routes on it, but no time.
"Even if we move forward at full speed, it will take at least twelve hours!"
Li Yiyi said nervously. "There is a Levi supply station in the middle. Calculate the consumption with me, where we need to replenish the fuel of the car, and then continue on the road."
Lu Ming nodded slightly, and at this moment the radio station in the car suddenly rang, and everyone looked inquiringly.
"The un121-15 rescue team reports that the Nepalese engine has completed restarting!"
"No989-12 rescue team reported that the engine in Duling City has been restarted!"
"The mu767-13 rescue team reported that the Singapore engine has completed restarting!"
"..."
Different languages reported the situation on the radio one after another through simultaneous translation. Everyone in the car looked much more excited, and the situation seemed to be improving. Li Yiyi also looked at Lu Ming expectantly, and said excitedly:
"90% of the steering engines have been repaired, only Sulawesi is missing!"
"In that case, you can start what I want to say."
Lu Ming patted his shoulder and said softly.
Li Yiyi suffered a cardiac arrest and looked at him waiting for the next step.
"If nothing unexpected happens, in about ten hours, the Earth will break through the Roche limit of Jupiter's rigid body and undergo an irreversible step process!"
Lu Ming pointed to the two spheres on the computer screen, "Jupiter will capture enough of the earth's oxygen by then, and the two will suddenly interact with each other. You will know better what will happen!"
"Hydrogen is mixed with oxygen and can be ignited with a piece of firewood. If the mass of hydrogen and oxygen mixed is large enough, the resulting explosion will directly push the earth away from Jupiter!"
Li Yiyi stood up instantly, but then thought of something again, and immediately said, "The distance between Earth and Wood is now more than hundreds of millions of kilometers, and it is impossible to reach it with missiles. And if the distance between the two is too close, then
We are not pushing the earth at all, we are blowing up the earth!"
"So I need you to do a job!"
"What job?"
"Modify the engine program!"
"You mean?"
Li Yidun suddenly became excited, "Use the planetary engine as the injection port and increase its magnification so that the engine can inject higher?!"
"You have a good idea, but we are still missing something!"
Lu Ming ignored his excitement and said softly.
"What else is missing?"
Li Yiyi asked quickly.
Lu Ming looked at Liu Qi and then at the sky, "Thirty short..."
"Thirty what?"
Li asked one by one.
"...There are still 300,000 tons of fuel left."
Lu Ming rubbed his swollen eyebrows, remained silent for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.
"What's the meaning?"
Liu Qi frowned and asked, looking at Lu Ming who hesitated for a long time before speaking, he had an ominous premonition in his heart. Thinking of what Lu Ming said before and his actions of looking at the sky, his uneasiness became deeper and deeper.
"You mean to say that even if I modify the planetary engine, the final distance of the flint ejection will not reach the surface of Jupiter, right?"
Li Yiyi took over the conversation. After all, he was a highly intelligent person. Combining the tips given by Lu Ming before, he suddenly thought of a lot. Since Lu Ming said that this problem could be solved, where was the 300,000 tons of missing fuel?
Looking at the red whirlpool in the sky, and thinking of Lu Ming's previous expression, his eyes suddenly opened wide, he suddenly realized, and murmured to himself: "It's in the sky!"
As expected of a high-level talent, no wonder he is a member of the United Government Advanced Technology Research Institute at such a young age... Lu Ming muttered in his heart. Li Yiyi could associate it so clearly with just a few words. He rolled his eyes, and Lu Ming looked at him.
Expressionlessly, she turned around and walked to Li Shiqing's side.
The next thing is not something that he should worry about. Even if he says it, he can't change the final result. Rather than putting pressure on Liu Qi's heart, it's better to relax every second.
Moreover, it is impossible for Lu Ming to give up the chance of global human survival just to save one person.
That's really crazy behavior.
"Li Changtiao, what do you mean by being in the sky?"
Seeing Lu Ming running aside, Liu Qi quickly asked Li Yi one after another.
"It should be the space station..."
Li Yi knocked on the computer to check the data and said thoughtfully.
"What does it have to do with the space station?"
Liu Qi suddenly became a little nervous,
"According to the information query in the joint government database, the Navigator Space Station stores at least enough energy fuel to operate for hundreds of years..."
Li Yiyi pondered and turned the computer screen to face Liu Qi.
"..."
Liu Qi looked at the information displayed on the screen, his expression suddenly changed, and his breathing became much faster. After a while, he suddenly thought of something, quickly turned around and walked to Lu Ming's side, took a deep breath, and asked anxiously, "Brother
, can there be another way? There must be other ways, right?"
"First, I am not sure this is the solution. This is not the first time I have encountered a gap between reality and prediction."
Lu Ming glanced at him sideways, buried his head again, and stretched out a second finger, "Second, when I wake up, I will try..."
Li Shiqing hugged Lu Ming with some distress. She could feel the entanglement and hesitation in Lu Ming's heart. It was an emotion that was difficult to decide and also an uneasy emotion. She didn't know what Lu Ming was hesitating about, so she could only
He reached out and hugged Lu Ming tightly, hoping to share his emotions.
only……
There are some things that she and Lu Ming can take on together, but there are some things that Lu Ming wants to take on alone...
