Chapter 3 Grabbing Not Picking Up

In the boundless space, Lin Yuan and Zheng Wan, who was carrying a solar sail, flew together all the way, always separated by a distance of 1000 meters.

Lin Yuan was very interested in the second way Zheng Wan said.

In the interstellar era, owning a spaceship is the dream of every astronaut, including Lin Yuan.

"Tell me about your specific plan."

Zheng Wan nodded: "Huangxing knows?"

"Of course, the spaceship graveyard."

To be precise, it is the suburb of the Nanli star field, the third satellite of the seventh giant planet 'Fatty Blue', and the disposal site for scrapped spacecraft designated by the Nanli government.

In the past 2000 years, all the scrapped spaceships in the Nanli star field have been thrown there, and there are countless spaceship wreckage on the surface of the planet.

"Five days ago, the Blackwater Industry Group scrapped a small mining ship. I carefully observed the landing point and the impact angle, and found that the mining ship crashed in the polar region of the barren star. The damage was not serious, and the radiation around the polar region was not serious. High, the possibility of repair is very high. How about it, interested?"

Of course there is interest, but this is not a trivial matter, Lin Yuan had to ask clearly.

"Just the two of us to fix it?"

"Yes, just the two of us. I'm in charge of the electronic control system and the energy center. You're in charge of the engine. As long as these three things are repaired, it's enough to make the spacecraft fly again."

Lin Yuan asked again: "Then how many life-support materials did you bring? Let me tell you first, my spacesuit can last for 27 days."

Zheng Wan patted the huge metal box mounted on the back: "See this? There are fission temperature difference batteries and a large-scale blue-green algae ecological cycle box inside, enough for the two of us to consume for three years."

It seems that the other party is quite well prepared.

But Lin Yuan still has doubts: "My body is full of original organs. The radiation on the surface of the barren star is not low. I'm afraid I can't bear it."

A large number of spacecraft wrecks means that a large amount of materials can be obtained, but it also means a large amount of radiation leakage.

With the technology mastered by Lin Yuan, it is not a big problem to repair a scrapped spaceship. I am afraid that he will die before the mission is completed. The ship is not repaired, and the people are gone.

Zheng Wan raised her hand and patted the metal box on her back again: "I have a tube of T11 immune cells in here, give me an injection, and you will be fine for a year."

T11 immune cells, that is, the 11th generation of universal immune nanorobots, are not effective, but barely enough.

It can't help Lin Yuan directly resist radiation, but it can remove the body cells that mutate in Lin Yuan's body due to radiation, and the effective rate of removing them in one year is 1%.

Even if Lin Yuan's body tissue becomes cancerous this year, the cancer cells will not develop, and they will be killed by nanobots in an instant.

However, T11 has a fatal flaw.

Lin Yuan shook his head again and again: "This thing can't penetrate the blood-brain barrier, but it can't protect my brain."

These days, one is not afraid of a broken body, but a broken brain is the real big deal.

Zheng Wan laughed: "So, I have prepared a good thing for you, look at this, 'Fortress' radiation protection helmet!"

As she spoke, she opened the box and took out a hat from it, which was shaped like Magneto's Psychic Immunity Helmet
"As long as you bring this, even if you stick your head directly into the enriched uranium, you will be safe."

Well, it is simply a treasure chest with everything in it.

It can also be seen that Zheng Wan came for him, Lin Yuan, in all likelihood, and has already figured out his situation clearly, and made perfect preparations.

In this case, Lin Yuan agreed: "Okay, then let's go to Desolate Star."

Let Desolate Star be the starting point of everything!
After finishing speaking, he controlled the space rover, and each nozzle continuously ejected high-pressure gas, approaching Zheng Wan's solar sail little by little.

Seeing him being so straightforward, Zheng Wan was a little surprised: "You have to think clearly. The situation in Desolate Star is very complicated. My plan is very risky. If one fails, the two of us will die in Desolate Star." .”

"so what?"

"So, we are betting our lives."

Lin Yuan smiled: "I am floating in space alone, am I not gambling my life?"

"Uh~~~ No wonder you dare to resign halfway, you really have the guts. Then get on board!"

Zheng Wan also controlled the solar sailboat and slowly approached Lin Yuan.

Running in both directions, in less than 5 minutes, the distance between the two was less than 5 meters.

At this distance, Lin Yuan could clearly see that the solar sail was about [-]% new, but Zheng Wan's space suit was quite worn out, with patches in many places, which made people worry that the sail would leak air.

It seems that the life of the interstellar scavenger is quite difficult.

Seemingly sensing Lin Yuan's gaze, Zheng Wan smiled and said, "Do you think I'm pitiful?"

Lin Yuan admitted frankly: "A little bit."

Zheng Wan chuckled: "I have cat demon anti-radiation skin, frogman iron lungs, wolf demon super titanium alloy bones, T18 long-lived immune cells, wolf demon heart and wolf demon skeletal muscle, customized version of eagle man's eyes, and Homo sapiens computing chip. Even without this space suit, I can live for an hour floating in space naked. How do you feel now?"

"."

Although this set of organ components is a bit complicated and the transformation is not complete, most of them are demon-level organs, and the market price of any one exceeds 2000 star crystals.

Lin Yuan's previous annual salary was only 3000 star crystals.

Relying on scavenging to get such a body, it seems that this Zheng Wan is quite capable.Since she dared to gamble, it means that the chances of success in repairing the spaceship are not small.

This is good news.

Lin Yuan did not hesitate to praise: "You are really amazing! I am convinced."

As he spoke, he moved closer and pulled out the fixed metal buckle from the belt of the space suit.Zheng Wan also pulled out the metal buckle from her belt.

With a 'click', the high-strength metal buckles were connected together, and Lin Yuan 'boarded' on Zheng Wan's solar sailing boat.

Zheng Wan fulfilled her promise, put on a fortress helmet on Lin Yuan, and injected him with T11 immune cells through the injection port on the space suit.

As a result, Lin Yuan briefly gained a fairly good ability to resist radiation.

After everything was ready, Zheng Wan shouted: "Get ready to go, hold my waist tightly!"

Lin Yuan did as he said, hugging Zheng Wan's body tightly from the side.

"Chi~chi~chi~"

The high-pressure airflow continuously spewed out from the nozzle beside Zheng Wan, pushing the solar sail to make a half-circle slowly in space, facing the sunlight head-on.

Under the light of the double star, the solar sail with a diameter of 1 km suddenly gained quite a lot of power.

The sailboat started to speed up, and Lin Yuan actually felt a strong push back. The huge force kept pulling his body backwards. If it wasn't for the metal buckle, he would definitely be thrown away.

Just as he was about to activate the space rover to maintain his balance, Zheng Wan stretched out his hand to give him a hand.

Lin Yuan clearly felt a huge force coming from the opponent's arm, and he stabilized his body at once.

He sincerely praised: "As expected of a demon-level skeletal muscle, it has such explosive power."

Zheng Wan smiled triumphantly: "Hey~ I'm not a vegetarian."

The solar sail continued to accelerate, and after about an hour, the speed reached 1 kilometers per second!

Inside the star field, this speed is simply as fast as lightning.

At this time, Zheng Wan put away more than half of the solar sail, leaving only less than 100 meters in diameter to provide power for changing directions.

The hull then stabilized, Lin Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, and let go of his numb arms.

After flying for a while, Zheng Wan suddenly asked: "Oh, by the way, besides engine repair, do you know other skills?"

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "I can do a little bit of everything."

Zheng Wan couldn't help turning her head to look at Lin Yuan: "Hey, don't all the employees of your big group only focus on majors, and are they mentally handicapped in other aspects?"

"Haha, most of them are, but not me."

In the interstellar era, interlacing is the most common phenomenon, but who made him a strange thing from time travel.

Zheng Wan was dubious: "I hope you are not bragging."

Lin Yuan shrugged his shoulders, and instead of dwelling on this question, he asked instead, "How long will it take us to arrive?"

"According to the current speed, we will be able to catch up to Fatty Blue in about eight days."

Eight days was a long journey on Earth, but in space age, that's ridiculously fast.

"understood."

The next thing to do is to wait patiently.

Waiting is the most common thing when traveling in the universe. Boredom and boredom are inevitable, and it is also a huge test of physical strength.

Every 20 minutes, Zheng Wan has to measure the flight angle and fine-tune the trajectory to ensure that the two are always on the correct track.

This work can only be done by astronauts who have replaced powerful organs.Lin Yuan, a primitive man full of primitive organs, couldn't take it anymore.

After trying to stay awake for 15 hours, he couldn't bear the drowsiness and fell asleep.

Afterwards, on the road, he woke up and fell asleep, working and resting normally, while Zheng Wan remained awake all the time, and he didn't seem to be sleepy at all.

Eight days passed in a flash.

Eight days later, a dark blue bright spot appeared in the front view, which was the seventh planet in the Nanli Star Field, a gas giant: Blue Fatty.

They were not far from Fatty Blue.

But before he had time to be happy, he received a message from Zheng Wan in the space suit communication, opened it, it was an invitation link to an encrypted channel, the channel name was: 'Road to Scavengers'.

Click to enter, and a hoarse voice jumped out first.

"Zizi~~Attention, fellow scavengers! Attention, fellow scavengers! Zizizi~~The barren star polar mining ship, our Blood Demon team has hired it. If you still insist, don't blame us for being hot-handed!"

Followed by a crisp voice similar to a little girl.

"Zizi~Zizi~hehehe~Little Gorefiend, ridiculous! Our Ugly Duckling Squad is going to order this spaceship!"

Then there is a mature Yujie voice.

"Brother and younger sister, don't worry, I will send you to hell one by one!"

Finally, there was a cold male voice.

"A group of noisy wastes - left by the man like the wind."

The scavenging channel is actually quite lively.

Zheng Wan's voice came: "Did you see it?"

Lin Yuan nodded: "There are a lot of people."

He couldn't help sighing in his heart, it was so embarrassing, there were still so many people robbing a scrapped spaceship in the outskirts of the desert.

Zheng Wan obviously expected it long ago, she asked: "Are you afraid? It's too late to regret it now."

Lin Yuan shrugged: "Afraid? If I'm afraid, I won't resign."

As the chief scientific officer of the Red Star Alliance, he has experienced countless dangers along the way.

Immature ultra-high-energy experiments, field surveys of strange alien stars, close observation of supernova explosions, etc., etc., are almost commonplace.

Friends say that he is not like a science officer, but more like an adventurer.

Compared with those high-energy experiments that easily crush people into quarks, or alien monsters that can shake people into dust with a single roar, fighting with a few scavengers is nothing more than pediatrics.

"Haha~ Interesting, let's continue!"

Zheng Wan is determined to win the spaceship, and conflicts are an indispensable part of her scavenging career.

She reached out to open the 'treasure box' on her back, and took out two guns, one large and one small, from it.

The big one was held by herself, and the small one was handed to Lin Yuan.

"Both are laser guns. I'll use the Falcon rifle, and I'll give you this little sparrow. The attack parameters are, the output energy is 0.2MJ in 30 seconds. Equipped with 20 capacitor bullets, the effective range in vacuum is 20 kilometers. Can you use it?"

Lin Yuan chuckled, and reached out to take the little sparrow's laser gun: "Of course!"

With a body of original organs, he can't do much physical work, but fine work is worthwhile.
