Interstellar arena

Chapter 042 Warp Engine

When the food crisis came to the fore, Lord Joy immediately thought of Liu Fei.

According to Joy's thinking, if Liu Fei is sent out to look for food at this time, it is undoubtedly the best solution. First, it avoids the frontal conflict between the old and new forces in the new Kedo space city; secondly, Joy can use Liu Fei to leave Time to re-solidify your position and improve your reputation.

Now, what troubled Joey City Lord was how to persuade Liu Fei to go out to find food.

This is a difficult challenge. After all, Liu Fei is now the de facto leader of New Kedo Space City, and only he has the right to assign personnel.

While Joy and a group of high-level executives were racking their brains on how to let Liu Fei go out to find food, Liu Fei volunteered to come to the door.

"I'm going out to find food!"

Everyone was stunned by Liu Fei's straight-forward first sentence, and then delighted secretly. Lord Joey nodded in agreement, but Liu Fei's second sentence stunned a group of high-level officials.

"I authorize my companions to temporarily manage New Curdo Space City, and at the same time authorize you to assist him in the management and reconstruction of New Curdo Space City."

"Ah... who is your companion?" City Lord Joey was taken aback for a moment. In his memory, Liu Fei had been walking alone. companion.

"Xiaoqiang!" Liu Fei resolutely spit out two words.

"Xiaoqiang..." City Lord Joey and everyone looked at each other. In his memory, Liu Fei didn't seem to have a subordinate named Xiaoqiang.

Liu Fei didn't know it himself. The Lord Joey had already collected all the information about him. When Liu Fei said the name "Xiaoqiang", the Lord Joey searched in his mind almost subconsciously. Be sure, there is absolutely no one named "Xiaoqiang" among Liu Fei's subordinates or people in contact with Liu Fei.

"Those who drive the silver mecha, as long as you agree, I will leave immediately. In addition, when I find food, I will hand over the management of New Kodo Space City. You don't have to rack your brains to deal with me."

After Liu Fei finished speaking, a pair of sharp eyes seemed to have penetrated the souls of Joey and a group of high-level people. Joey and the group suddenly coughed in embarrassment, avoiding Liu Fei's sharp gaze, and under that gaze , They had a naked feeling. In their eyes, Liu Fei became more and more mysterious. It seemed that nothing could be hidden from this taciturn young man.

In the eyes of Joey's group of people, Liu Fei is an omniscient person. You must know that in order to avoid panic, the food crisis is absolutely kept secret. Except for a few high-level people who know, the entire Kedo Space City In the dark, Liu Fei knew this top-secret information almost immediately, and he had already made a decision when everyone was at a loss.

"Please decide immediately!" Seeing everyone's silence for a while, Liu Fei urged lightly.

"I agree with Mr. Liu's opinion." When the city lord Joey made a decision, he somehow thought of the silver mecha, and vaguely felt that this was not a good thing. Compared with Liu Fei, it seemed , the person in the silver armor is even more mysterious, until now, no one has seen his true face.

"We also agree." A group of high-level executives glanced at each other and nodded in agreement one after another.

"I need a spaceship with a life cycle system that is enough for 50 people to live. Well, there must be a mech fighting training room and a virtual training room. I also need enough hard currency, such as rare metals, cash, etc... ..." Liu Fei made a long list of requests.

"Dear Mr. Liu, I deeply admire your fearless spirit, and thank you very much for your selfless contribution to Kodo Space City. If a sculpture needs to be built in the square of the new Kodo Space City, it must be you , However, I have a question to remind you that at present, our food can only last for more than two months, and the time of more than two months is almost negligible in this vast universe. If we can't get food for a while, an unimaginable human tragedy will happen in this airspace..."

"No, it's six months, or even longer!" Liu Fei interrupted without waiting for Joy to finish speaking.

"Six months..."

"Yes, in six months, we now have a population of over half a million, but we can put most of the people in a dormant state, leaving only a part of the people to work, then we will save two-thirds of the food, The saved food can support the working people for a few more months, and during these few months, the working people can build a small space city farm. I think, with the planet as a base, the construction efficiency of the farm is higher It is much higher. With the scientific and technological strength, manpower and material resources of Koduo Space City, six months is enough to build a space farm that can provide food for 50 people. If the speed is accelerated, when the space farm produces food, the food reserves should be There is still a surplus. According to this model, as long as the amount of food is controlled to the minimum, and then some people are awakened in a dormant state, under a virtuous circle, after two years, Kodo Space City will be able to wake up all the dormant residents ..."

"Ah... We didn't think of sleeping!"

There was a commotion in the office, and people were ashamed for not thinking of the simplest solution to the problem. In fact, this is understandable. After all, when humans conquered the warp drive for space jump technology, the time for space travel became extremely short. Short, the longest time is only about a year, and dormancy, which is a necessary means for the initial long interstellar voyage, has become dispensable.

I have to say that this is a heart-warming suggestion, because human beings consume very little nutrition in a dormant state. If they are dormant for several months, it is almost negligible. If you follow what Liu Fei said, the crisis in the space city There is no crisis at all. In six months, it is not difficult to build a space farm that feeds 5 people...

Thinking of this, some high-level executives couldn't help but secretly startled. This young man seems to be quite sensitive to data, and his meticulous thinking is even more amazing. He knows the current power of Koduo Space City well. Monthly forecasts show a kind of absolute confidence.

"Mr. Liu, according to your thinking, we can completely rely on our own strength to get through this difficulty!" City Lord Joy said with confidence.

"Yes." Liu Fei nodded in agreement.

"So, don't we need to send people out to find food?"

The owner of Joey asked the doubts in his heart. Obviously, he saw that Liu Fei seemed to want to leave Xin Kedo Space City. If Liu Fei did not show his disregard for money in the casino, the owner of Joey would even doubt Liu Fei. Suspected of absconding with money.

"No, all predictions are developing according to the normal trajectory. In this vast space, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents. What's more, we have to beware of space pirates and aliens waiting for opportunities. Pirates and aliens do not harass the space city. We must also send people out to find the reason why this airspace route has become quiet. Are you willing to stay here forever? Leave human society forever? Don’t forget, at present , Koduo Space City does not have the ability to manufacture warp drives..."

"..."

Suddenly, people broke out in a cold sweat.

People discovered that they had forgotten a fundamental problem. Kodok Space City did not have the ability to manufacture a warp drive, and a spaceship must have a warp drive capable of breaking through the speed of light for interstellar jumps.

The warp drive is the pinnacle of human science and technology. Because of the warp drive, humans have penetrated deeper and deeper into the vast universe. The manufacturing technology of the warp drive has always been mastered by the six star fields, just like ancient times. Earth's nuclear weapons are subject to a very strict technical blockade. Space cities like Koduo Space City have no ability to manufacture warp drives at all. Moreover, the main reason why Koduo Space City has been unable to develop large-scale space battleships is also because they cannot manufacture Warp drive, the warp drive on some commercial spacecraft capable of interstellar jumps is also completely dependent on imports.

If this airspace is blocked!

If Kodo Space City can't develop a warp drive from the beginning to the end!

So what are the consequences?

The consequences are very serious. More than 50 humans in New Kodo Space City will be abandoned by humans forever, and New Kodo Space City will become an isolated island in the vast interstellar...
