Chapter 486 Star Shuttle-3

Today is a big day. The first passenger ship of the Phoenix Project is about to take off, carrying 140 five passengers, to the Phoenix 0.1 version where the core module has been built.

These passengers are either CNC engineers, environmental experts, experienced astronauts, mining ship pilots, and none of them are superfluous.

They will be the first humans to see the Phoenix City with their own eyes, and they will also continue to complete its builders. The Phoenix Group has sufficient human resources to choose from, and all they choose are elites.

Of course, the censorship system is more than that. As a refuge for the rich, the Garden of Eden is used to escape the invasion of superhumans and players. The last thing they want to see is that superhumans or players sneak into Phoenix.

Every passenger has undergone strict blood tests and consciousness screening to ensure that there is no potential risk of awakening and the possibility of being descended.

Those wealthy classes who control half of the world's wealth, if they still don't know what threats they are facing, they really deserve to be wiped out on the earth.

What the players are, where they come from, and what their purpose is, these people know almost as much as Mikkelsen. Many naturalized families who are good at hedging bets have taken a lot of tickets to Phoenix City themselves. Be stingy in buying some information for 'your own people'.

Responsible for sending these people to the sky is the Star Shuttle-3 spacecraft, which is manufactured by the Houston Aerospace Industry Center and is currently owned by the Phoenix Orbital Construction Group.

"Cole, this is Xingshuo-3, everything is normal, waiting for the ignition signal." The main driver Copperfield checked the LCD screen in front of him to make sure that all the readings of the instruments were normal, and the co-pilot next to him was a rookie Nick. Well, this is his first real machine operation, so Copperfield has to complete all inspections by himself to prevent accidents.

In order to meet the wave of immigrants in a few years, they need to train a large number of qualified drivers, and now all experienced drivers are equipped with a rookie deputy.

Copperfield sometimes felt that the world was too unfair. Those rich people could always enjoy the best and most guaranteed service, while the following service personnel were directly classified as trainable.

As it is now, aerospace is a serious and precise job. Star Shuttle-3 is currently one of the world's largest and longest-range carrier spacecraft. Strictly speaking, there is no such thing as Nikkor. Rookies exist.

But all rules are meant to be broken, and Copperfield can only follow the arrangements.

"Ignition is permitted, Star Shuttle-3, I wish you all the best of luck." A response came from the command center. Today is a big day for the Phoenix Orbital Construction Group, and it is also a big day for Copperfield. No one wants to have any accidents.

As an experienced pilot, Copperfield was selected early as a resident of Phoenix. As a benefit, he also won two places for his family, which made him very sober. When he left the space center and entered the business The aerospace industry.

This damn world will soon be left behind by him
"Starting the ignition procedure, counting down, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! The ignition is successful!" Copperfield felt the thrust of the rocket, and his whole body was firmly pressed on the seat, and gravity was working in vain To stay, but his destination is ultimately in that dark starry sky.

"Are you nervous?" Copperfield turned to look at Nicole, a rookie always under the greatest pressure.

"I'm fine." Nicole looked very calm, not even a drop of sweat, which made Copperfield very satisfied, and felt that he would soon become a qualified co-pilot.

At this time, the main propulsion rocket that has completed its mission began to separate actively, adjusted its attitude and fell back to the earth, and the Star Shuttle-3 has reached the synchronous orbit lightly.

They need to circle the earth three times here to find a suitable angle and start the next journey, the journey to Phoenix.

"Do me a favor, go to the back to see the passengers, and help me get a tube of coffee cream from the stewardess." Copperfield smiled and begged Nicole, who obediently left the cab.

Then Copperfield began to enjoy this moment of tranquility. This was not his first time in space, but every time he liked to enjoy the beauty of the sun passing across the cockpit for the first time by himself.

This is a chaotic era. On the one hand, humans can build farms in space, and even have the ambition to build a space city, but on the other hand, they are losing the ability to manufacture large-thrust engines.

The use of Star Shuttle-3 is still an old product from the Federation era. The only contribution of the Phoenix Orbital Construction Group in this regard over the years is that it can copy this engine instead of making a stronger one.

Fortunately, Copperfield is just a driver, and in his opinion, this is actually a good thing. He doesn't need Xu to learn more fault manuals. It would be great if he could drive Star Shuttle-3 for a lifetime.

At this time, Nicole, who had just finished asking the stewardess after walking outside, was observing the flight attendants by observing the passengers.

He has two identities, one is the supervisor of the security department of the Phoenix Track Construction Group, and the other is the undercover agent of the Joint Investigation Office.

The former required him, as a new employee, to secretly assess every employee participating in the Phoenix City Project to ensure that there were no undercover agents from other forces.

Nicole took the coffee ointment from the stewardess, and evaluated the stewardess' state of mind by the way. Her palms were damp and wet with sweat.

But based on her resume, this should be her fourth trip to and from this space route, and she shouldn't be so nervous, unless there is something beyond her scope of duty that is bothering her.

Nicole asked calmly, "How is today? Is everything going well?"

"It went well. The passengers were a little uneasy, but this is a normal phenomenon. The company has provided them with special training, and they will overcome it." The stewardess froze for a moment, then replied with a smile.

"Have you got your residence permit in Phoenix?" Nicole asked again, this time without a smile on the flight attendant's face.

The most cruel thing in the world is to let you know the news of the great flood in advance, but your name is not on the Ark list.

At this time, these workers who have already got the tickets have become the hard-to-reach objects of the flight attendants in their entire lives.

"I believe the company will make a fair decision in the end." The stewardess replied formulaically.

"I believe it too, but before that, keep hope and don't do stupid things." Nickel's words made the flight attendant's expression change, and she immediately replied, "I don't understand what you're talking about!"

When Nicole wanted to say something more, the stewardess had already made a decisive decision, and before anyone could react, she shouted: "You human traitors will be punished!"

boom!
The explosion was actually not loud. Nichol could even imagine that the explosive was only the size of a watch. The stewardess must have hidden the explosive itself with her body.

Its equivalent can't even damage the hull itself. The stewardess probably stuck it on the reinforced glass, and Star Shuttle-3 began to lose pressure in an instant.

According to the normal process, the depressurized cabin will be automatically sealed, but the flight attendant obviously has an accomplice and destroyed the cabin sealing ability.

Right in front of Nicole, the weak door leading to the bathroom was gradually sinking, and the only thing he had time to do was to firmly hold on to the only fixed object around him.

In the next second, the entire door was torn off, and the air pressure in the cabin sprayed gas through the gap. The flight attendant's body was adsorbed to the gap, and only persisted for a few seconds. out.

At the same time, in the power cabin, a maintenance technician also damaged the power system, causing Star Shuttle-3 to temporarily lose power.

Although other maintenance technicians stopped his further actions in time, it would take at least four hours to restore the power, Star Shuttle-3 would lose the best orbital detachment time, and the next window period would have to wait another 26 hours.

At present, Phoenix City is staying near Ceres, so that those autonomous machines can collect materials locally and collect enough mineral materials.

In fact, the entire Phoenix City Project was first established around the self-discipline mining system of Ceres. This project will provide 40.00% of the raw materials for the entire Phoenix City Project.

In addition to 3 five passengers, Xingshuo-140 also carried some materials that the Ceres mining system cannot produce, such as insulating materials and special glass.

Copperfield calmly dealt with various alarm signals, and by the way responded to the inquiries from the senior management of the Phoenix Orbital Construction Group. He knew nothing about what happened in the cabin, and he only knew that the current problems had not affected the mission. itself.

Xingshuo-3 is a large ship with a high safety margin, and it needs to be destroyed by military strikes to deal with it.

So Copperfield was not flustered, and his affirmative answer reassured the management of Phoenix Rail Construction Group.

This is Nicole returning to the cockpit. He has successfully dealt with the depressurization problem in the cabin. The only price is that in the next 140 hours, all passengers will only have one bathroom available.

Fortunately, most of the passengers were locked in their cabins and had no idea what was going on outside.

"What happened?" Copperfield asked while trying to activate the backup power system. As the old pilot of the Star Shuttle-3, he had confidence in the ship.

"Earth supremacists." Nicole shook his head, and the security personnel on board had already started an investigation, and I believe there will be results soon.

Since the birth of the Phoenix Project, earth supremacists have emerged as the times require. They despise the original intention of the Phoenix Project and feel that it is a judgment on human civilization.

In fact, this is true. Not only do they want to go by themselves, but they also want to take away the best part of the entire civilization.

Of course, for the participants in the plan, this behavior is more like stopping losses in time and accumulating strength for the future. One day, they will return to the earth like angels and become the real saviors.

Nickel is very dissatisfied with the superior attitude of the Phoenix participants, but he also disagrees with the earth supremacists, because the latter have nothing to do with the current predicament facing mankind, and all effective resistance comes from Mikkelsen.

Therefore, he firmly believed that he was on the right side.

But the journey of Xingshuo-3 is destined to be restless. The internal problem is only the first hurdle, followed by the threat from the Arasaka Group.

Although the Arasaka Group was kicked out of the Federation during the corporate war, it is still a giant, and its influence in outer space requires special attention.

The largest man-made object currently in Earth orbit, the Crystal Palace space station is its masterpiece.

"This is Crystal Palace Defense Outpost No. 11. Approach permission has not been detected. Please do not risk approaching this outpost. You will be responsible for the consequences." When a reorientation space station that looks about the same size as Star Shuttle-3 appeared on the radar Copperfield's face was a bit ugly when he was in range.

Although this is the first time to carry people to Phoenix, he has run the cargo route twice before, and there shouldn't be such a large space station on his route.

If it wasn't for the other party deliberately moving to his own orbit, then he could only yaw.

Not everyone is happy to see the success of the Phoenix City Project. For example, Saburo Arasaka. The Crystal Palace of the Arasaka Group was originally the closest place to the Garden of Eden, but it is too close to the earth.

Those increasingly powerful superhumans may threaten its existence at any time, and Phoenix City, which is far away near Ceres, has become a more suitable ideal place.

From the perspective of interests, the Arasaka Group did have reasons to stumbling the Phoenix Project, but the Phoenix Rail Construction Group judged that the Arasaka Group would not just tear themselves apart. After evaluation, they agreed to the other party's request for armed personnel to board the ship for inspection.

As the captain and pilot of Star Shuttle-3, Copperfield was very dissatisfied with this behavior, but he could only accept it.

Then things got out of hand, those Arasaka armed soldiers, after boarding the ship for inspection, left a passenger behind.
"Where is this?" Sigitas Lange, who was wearing a straitjacket, looked around with a cold face. When he saw the boundless space through the porthole, he was stunned.

Saburo Arasaka agreed to send him to see Tang Ji, but asked him to cooperate with him to do an experiment.

Saburo Arasaka wanted to know what would happen if a player was sent to a place far away from the earth, would they still have delays, would there be a phenomenon of disconnection and reconnection?

Of course, his explanation to Sigitas was not so detailed, he just asked him to go to a certain place, come back, and tell himself what he saw and heard.

It is actually very simple to convince Sigitas Lange that anyone who is obsessed with death can find their spiritual support in the neon culture.

In the process of communicating with Arasaka Saburo, he was quickly moved by the beauty of the ending that was gorgeous into the cherry blossoms in the mouth of the other party, and he voluntarily took this task.

The other party promised him that when he returned, he would invite Tang Ji to be his intermediary with the highest etiquette, and let him die gloriously as a warrior.

Although it is quite nonsense, as a player, Sigitas thinks this is a very meaningful adventure. As for what the people on Star Shuttle-3 think, no one knows
