Chapter 1683 Atomic Clock

After hearing the emperor's decision, Tita was the first to stand up. The aircraft carrier battle group where the sky aircraft carrier is located had several automated missile cruisers from the Mars dock. The main purpose of these cruisers that only require a small number of personnel is to provide firepower to the sky aircraft carrier. After the Imperial Guards obtained the coordinates, Tita's decision was to fire several void missiles at that coordinate, but the emperor decided to send several missile cruisers to completely destroy the alien space station at the coordinates. This decision to reduce its own defense power was unanimously opposed by the sisters. Unexpectedly, Tita did not see any objection from the Imperial Guards, and the Imperial Guards commander began to study whether the plan to use cruisers to destroy the alien space station.

Her expression fully showed anxiety. No detector could penetrate the fog on Neptune's ecliptic surface. They knew that the Event Horizon spacecraft equipped with a hyperspace engine was just after the fog, and that any detector had to pass through the psychic fog to get close to the Event Horizon spacecraft, just as if the spacecraft had extraordinary gravity. The detector could not observe the situation behind the fog, and Tita was very worried that there would be an enemy that could not cope with the firepower of a sky carrier. "My Lord, is this decision wise? We are about to enter the fog of Neptune, and it is necessary to maintain enough firepower." Tita said, "I have clarified my concerns in the report."

"It's okay, Tita, my messenger has already discovered the situation behind the fog."

The emperor pointed to the bridge porthole. Immediately afterwards, a faint fire lit up in the dark void, like a condensed cloud left by a vehicle in the atmosphere burning in the void, and then rushed towards the porthole at a high speed visible to the naked eye in the void. Finally, a white-hot silent explosion outside the hull, and a big golden-red bird emerged from the air of the bridge, bringing light and heat.

"Phoenix." The emperor raised his arm and gave the mythical creature a place to rest.

The Sisters and the Imperial Guards have seen Phoenix, but no one on the bridge has seen this fabulous and beautiful creature, but no one's reaction is as exaggerated as the Mars Technological Sage. The disciplines taught by Mars also include biology, but Phoenix is ​​not an animal in nature at first sight. Rather than being an animal, it is better to say that it is a physical projection of the outer dimension. The discipline of exploring the spirits of the outer dimension is included in taboos by Mars and the Emperor, and any Mars scholar who studies the outer dimension must carefully study it to avoid unless the red line. Even so, it is a precious experience to witness the projection of the outer dimension entity on the material plane for the first time. The biological theories of nature cannot explain the paranormal phenomena that appear with the same type of creatures. The Mars Technological Sage secretly adjusts the eyepiece to try to analyze the energy spectrum that overflows around Phoenix.

"Tell me what's behind the fog. Please don't express it in poetry. What I need is a detailed report."

"I get it. Now I need you to return to Earth, go to the witch and tell them my decision." The emperor suddenly changed his tone. "Be careful, the witches are very irritable, and they will definitely be angry at my plans." Tita discovered that except for the artificial humans and the Imperial Guards, others did not respond to the emperor's next words. "They don't like me to leave them, but this is too dangerous, and they have a mission to complete. I have explained it to them, but I don't think they can accept my advice happily."

The emperor knew that compared to maintaining the safety of the earth, the witches prefer bloody battles and hot baths that wash away the smell of blood after the battle. He gave part of the responsibilities of Kama Taj to the witches, but they were completely incomparable to those duties with the trials he was about to take. In response, Tita heard a few pleasant tweets, followed by the golden red phoenix disappearing with the dazzling fire.

"What did it say, my lord?"

Tita looked up and found that the guards were eager for answers just like him. Obviously, all the emperor's decisions broke through the most basic security procedures. The Imperial Guards could not tolerate the emperor who had been on Earth before that there was no guard protection (the sisters did not know the existence of the Kama Taj dungeon), and Tita could not tolerate the emperor's dispatch of battlecruisers such as important firepower support to leave to attack an alien space station that might exist at a certain coordinate.

She didn't think that space station deserves so much attention from the emperor. The emperor could make an attack plan after the mission was over. She suddenly had an idea, that is, what the emperor was in a hurry to do. This idea was deeply rooted in her thoughts as soon as it was born. Tita thought it was necessary to have a good talk with Constantine in private. She saw Dinah standing behind the emperor, lowering her head without saying a word. Perhaps this respected and artificial lady who was completely responsible for the emperor's daily life could know something. If the emperor had any secrets, only Constantine and Dinah could understand it.

"The Lewis and Clark spacecraft has not reached Neptune's orbit. Phoenix entered the psychic fog and kept tracking them." The emperor commanded the holographic projection desktop to show the model of the Event Horizon spacecraft. "We are constantly approaching, and soon we will see the spacecraft that is conducting hyperspace navigation."

"This result is consistent with the result of psychic divination." Constantine pointed at Master Wang and said, "Mage Wang's spacecraft Lewis and Clark is trapped."

After entering the bridge, Master Wang tried every means to get away. During the long discussion, he did not take a nap or stare blankly. He did not stagnate until the commander of the imperial guard mentioned him that he staggered and stood up reluctantly. His former colleague became his superior, and he was a little embarrassed no matter what.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! "The film of reality near the psychic fog is very weak. It is the wound that the event Horizon's hyperspace engine tear opens in the material world." Master Wang lazily explained the answer that the other party already knew. Neither the telescope in the earth's orbit nor the detector launched by the psychic fog can be accurately measured, because it is the wound of the real plane, and there is no physical quantity such as width and length. Now that the emperor has arrived at the psychic fog, his job responsibilities can naturally be transferred. After all, this colleague's ability is much stronger than himself. "It is not surprising that the Lewis and Clark spacecraft encountered such a thing. No one knows what changes will happen to the physical laws of the immaterial domain. Perhaps Lewis and

Clark has to fly another distance to the solar system, and maybe they can reach Neptune in the next second.

"We will arrive at the psychic fog, and Lewis and Clark will escape from the sea of ​​non-reality. This is a trap, a trap for me. The existence behind the curtain knows that only in this way can I go to Event Horizon to find out. If we give up this decision, then there will be news on the planet that the Lewis and Clark will soon be lost. Then more people will know about this confidential project. This is also the result that the existence behind the curtain is happy to see. They put me on the tram problem." The emperor looked at Master Wang, and his serious eyes embarrassed the latter. "Mage Hamil, your father has been divining many times. He believes that this is a temptation from the external dimension after the death of the Supreme Master. I hope to lead the commando and the guards to board Event.

After the Horizon, you can keep in touch with Kamataj, at least let Kamataj know that I have no problem. Constantine, order all the guards on this ship to prepare, and then I need all the guards to board the Event Horizon with me. Tita…”

The chief commander of the sisters lowered his head and was unwilling to look at the emperor.

"This is a trial against me, but I don't know how long the trial will last, so I have to arrange my next mission. I order you to lead the Punishment carrier and other battlecruisers immediately after sending us to Event Horizon to attack the alien space station in the Kuiper belt. This mission must be completed before Ragnarok, so that we can shrink our strength in time to deal with Thanos' invasion."

Tita closed her eyes in pain, and she seemed to have missed the opportunity to walk on the same battlefield as the emperor again.

"I understand," she asked, "so how can I know that your mission on the Event Horizon has been completed? Our individual communicator does not have that much power, which will allow me to greet you in time?"

"The king will know," said the emperor, "when I complete the trial, I will tell him."

—————

Captain Miller came to the cab with concern, and equally frowning was also the pilot Lieutenant Smith, who replaced Lieutenant Smith for the next eight hours. Since all the crew decided to dive into the fog, they had been in the invisible fog for several standard days. According to previous calculations, they should have arrived at the location of the Event Horizon spacecraft, but they were still sailing and did not hit anything, nor were they pulled down by Neptune's gravity, which means they had not arrived at their destination. In order to deal with emergencies, Captain Miller had to ask the pilot Lieutenant Smith to teach the simplest way to every crew except the turbine unit, and implement shift and ration to avoid the inability to react in emergencies.

"Are you in trouble?" Dr. Will in the passenger seat looked up.

"There is a problem with the atomic clock." Captain Miller sighed. The long journey consumed everyone's patience, and this invisible destination voyage can also cause mental breakdown. Captain Miller also needs to make sure that every crew member on the ship can consume the most basic food under the ration system, because NASA added a small amount of medicines to stabilize the mind. Without these medicines, the crew members would find it difficult to calm down and think carefully. "The problem that came two hours ago, or maybe two hours ago." Captain Miller shrugged. Time can be said to be the most insignificant problem now. "Now we can't determine the time. I have sent Lieutenant Kubo (Search and Rescue) and Dr. Peters to check the computer, and they all think that there is a problem with the atomic clock."

"Tell me," Dr. Will put away the book and looked very interested.

"The time displayed by the atomic clock is very chaotic. Sometimes the atomic clock shows that we are back a few days ago, and sometimes we are a hundred years later. But most of the time, the atomic clock thinks that our time has stalled." Captain Miller sighed again, thinking that he might need additional psychotherapy, or psychotherapy. "Dr. Peters believes that if we cannot penetrate this layer of fog, then the atomic clock problem is completely irrelevant. Besides that, there are problems with the turbine. We have turned off the engine, and the only fuel left must be supported until we return to Earth. There are many other problems that you may not be interested in understanding."

"I can go and have a look. You know, I'm probably the only one who knows the mechanical structure of the atomic clock on this ship."

The NASA's standards for selecting astronauts are relatively relaxed, and does not require astronauts to be completely piloted, and only need to receive relevant training. Otherwise, Dr. Peters and Dr. Will would not come to this ship. Of course, this also puts more pressure on Captain Miller. After all, short-term training is difficult to make a person with the so-called astronaut thinking, and often occurs when the behaviors that are accustomed to in gravity environments make jokes in zero gravity environments.

"After the duty is over, if you still have the energy," said Captain Miller. "We can't leave the spacecraft unmanned."

"Of course." Dr. Will nodded, "I am already bored every day when I look at this unchanging scenery. Ask, I know you still have questions, after all, Lieutenant Smith's duty is not over yet."

"Can you explain what we're having?" Captain Miller pointed to the silver-white mist outside the window.

"I can't do it." Dr. Will put away the data board, Captain Miller glanced and found that it was a photo of Dr. Will and a woman. "We should have reached the orbit of Neptune. But we did not hit the atmosphere of Neptune in Shanghai, which only means that we have not reached our destination. The universe is very mysterious. There are phenomena in this world that we humans cannot explain for the time being. Dr. Wendy Lawson once showed me many technologies that exceeded human common sense. If it weren't for the accident that killed her... maybe the level of human technology could have been alien colonized long ago."

"You always mention Dr. Lawson, but I hardly ever heard the name."

"Dr. Lawson has not taught in any school, nor has he published any papers. She has been serving S.H.E.E.L.D., and only scholars in related fields can know her name." Dr. Will hesitated. "It is a stupid act to hide information at this moment, but I can only provide my guesses, because other public information is not necessarily accurate, and no one knows why Dr. Lawson provides services to S.E.L.D. But he believes that Dr. Wendy Lawson may have connections with some alien civilizations, otherwise it will be impossible to explain how she made the engine that exceeded the limits of current application physics - in fact, it took us more than ten years to power that hyperspace engine, and Dr. Lawson's achievements in the Tianma Project are more than this - but after Dr. Lawson's death, many research has stalled. Fortunately, S.E.L.D. is relatively independent, otherwise Congress would cut off all research funds."

The plan to repair the atomic clock was very slow. Dr. Will spent six rotation gaps to check the atomic clock in the time frequency cabinet. This thing that looked like a large refrigerator had complex cables and equipment, using the atomic oscillation frequency to determine the time. For Dr. Will, checking and repairing this equipment was his rare leisure time on this spacecraft. He had plenty of questions to fill his brain and squeeze out his longing for his deceased wife. Whenever he thought about a problem, he always felt more relaxed.

He closed his laptop and touched his beard that had not been cleaned for a long time. Because Captain Miller was concerned about the recycled water resources, they had to save unnecessary waste, including shaving. At this time, Dr. Peters came over and he happened to finish his work. "I have repeatedly checked the equipment that can be inspected here, but no problem was found. If you want to conduct in-depth inspections, you can only disassemble the core equipment and adjust the interior. I guess there may be problems with the magnetic shielding compartment on the outer layer of the atomic furnace or the microwave cavity. No one knows whether our external environment has allowed many particles that we have not yet discovered to penetrate the shielding layer."

"Captain Miller asked me to inform you." Dr. Peters automatically filtered the long list of expertise. "He was going to have another meeting to discuss the next action. He thought we should let some people go dormant first."

"His anxiety is a little too serious, isn't he?"

"He shouldn't be anxious," Dr. Peters sighed. "The psychotropic drugs I prescribed for him are not effective at all. What about you, have you taken the medicine as my doctor's instructions?"

“I’m in a good state.”
