Game Hunter - Chapter 142
Chapter 142 Artificial Migration Satellite
Under Ike’s lead, Zuo Jie and the others arrived at a laboratory.
There were all kinds of blueprints in the laboratory, and Ike handed some of them to Zuo Jie and the others.
Zuo Jie and the others looked at the contents of the blueprint carefully and revealed astonished expressions.
Zuo Jie asked in surprise, “Is this a satellite?”
Ike shook his head, but nodded slightly. “You’re only half right,” he said. “The drawings are actually a draft design for an artificial migration satellite.”
“Immigration satellite?” Tang Ran looked at Ike with a surprised expression.
“Humans have spent more than 20 years trying to transform Mars into a planet that is perfectly suited for living things like Earth, but one important reason for the slow progress is that Mars and Earth are at different distances from the Sun,” Ike explained. The length of day and night between Mars and Earth, the speed of rotation, and the speed of revolution were also different. These differences have led to a long period of time for plants and animals on Earth to adapt to the Martian environment. One important reason why humans cannot grow rice, wheat, or other food on Mars on a large scale is that plants have not yet adapted to the Martian environment.
“Then” Li Li hesitated for a moment and asked, “What does this have to do with the Immigration Satellite?”
Ike continued: “Artificial immigration satellites can adjust the sunlight, oxygen, rain and temperature inside the satellites according to our own needs. In other words, in immigration satellites, we can completely simulate the same ecological environment as Earth.” As long as the process goes smoothly, these immigration satellites will not only become a new place of residence for mankind, but also an important food supply for mankind. Once the Immigration Satellite is successfully constructed, the human food crisis will be thoroughly resolved. ”
“Since that’s the case, why didn’t you tell me this earlier?”
As for Zuo Jie’s question, Ike directly threw a blank glance at him.
‘”This is science, not magic. Do you think I can do it immediately if I want it?” Ike complained, “It’s a science, not a magic. Do you think I can do it immediately if I want it?” Since the day when humans founded the World Government, President Loos has come to me and asked me if there are any ways to increase food production. That is, from that day onwards, I have been thinking of ways to solve the food crisis of humans. I even had to stop working on the new game cassette for this draft. ”
“Then has this design drawing been completed?” Tang Ran asked.
Ike nodded slightly and said, “The design of the Migration Satellite has been completed. Theoretically, there shouldn’t be any other problems with the Migration Satellite. As long as this design is submitted to World Government for review, we can build an artificial Migration Satellite as soon as it is confirmed to be feasible.”
“Sounds great.” Tang Ran said happily.
Ike’s news made Tang Ran a little excited. However, Tang Ran wasn’t happy for long, but Ike told them a piece of news that made them frown bitterly.
“Theory is different from practice,” sighs Ike. “No one can guarantee that there will be no new problems in the process of establishing immigration. On the other hand, even if there were no problems with the design blueprints, and even if no other accidents occurred during the construction process, it would take a year at the fastest for humans to build and put into use the Immigration Satellite. However, it had been less than a year since Mars had replenished its food supplies. “I’m afraid that before the migration satellite is built, the humans on Mars will have to kill each other because they don’t have enough food.”
Li Li and the others fell silent. Everyone was extremely ugly and gloomy. There was indeed a high probability that something like what Ike said would happen.
Ike sighed, “When I learned that World Government was trading with the chess corpse team for two billion tons of food in exchange for a billion humans, I was just as surprised as you are, but at the same time, I understood.” I believe that if possible, World Government would not be willing to make this choice, but the situation is now that they have to make a choice. There are 10 billion humans on one side and 1 billion humans on the other. They can only choose to protect the former. ”
Tang Ran and the others had bitter expressions on their faces. Of course, they understood World Government’s difficulties. If possible, who would be willing to make that decision?
“We really need these two billion tons of food,” Ike continued. “We have to drag on until the artificial migration satellite is completed, and we have to drag on until the entire food production capacity is restored to humans.”
…
Tang Ran and the others found Luo Fei again. When Tang Ran told them everything about their conversation with Ike, a look of disappointment flashed across Luo Fei’s face.
Luo Fei thought that Ike could do something to save that billion people, but he didn’t expect that Ike had already done his best.
Zuo Jie smashed the wall and said, “Damn it, can’t we do anything other than hand over a billion hostages?”
Li Li closed her eyes and sighed, “There’s nothing we can do. If we don’t hand it over, sooner or later, humans will end up killing each other because of the depletion of food. This 2 billion yuan of food is what we urgently need.”
‘”Is it urgently needed? I don’t know why,” Luo Fei repeated Li Li’s words.
At the same time, Luo Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze unknowingly became incomparably sharp.
…
When Ike was busy tidying up the design drawings, Luo Fei suddenly came to Ike’s side, which shocked Ike and almost scared him out of his heart.
Ike was a little surprised. “I heard from Zuo Jie and the others that you were in solitary confinement. How did you escape?”
Luo Fei took the game tape in his hand and said, “When the game tape returns to my hand, who do you think will be able to stop me?”
“That’s also true. After all, I personally designed the game cassette.” Ike’s tone was filled with pride.
Looking at Luo Fei, Ike asked, “What are you looking for me for? If it’s still the same question as before, I’ve already told Zuo Jie and the others very clearly. Although I can recover my grain production capacity, I can’t produce hundreds of millions of grains in an instant. This is science, not magic.”
“I know. That’s why I’m here to see you. It’s not about food. It’s about other things.”
“What is it?” Ike looked at Luo Fei puzzled.
Luo Fei calmly stated his purpose.
‘I want to know how to get back to Earth. I want to steal the 2 billion tons of food from Earth before the transaction. Since humans need the 2 billion tons of food, and I don’t want to see a billion humans fall into the hands of the chess team, I can only think of a way to get the food in Game corpse’s hands.’
Luo Fei’s words almost made Ike breathe out all the water he had just drunk.
Ike looked at Luo Fei in surprise. He touched Luo Fei’s forehead and said in surprise, “It’s not a fever. It doesn’t look like his brain has been burned.”
Luo Fei took Ike’s hand away and snorted coldly, “I don’t have a fever, my brain isn’t broken, and I’m serious.”
“This” Ike stared at Luo Fei dumbfounded. He was already too surprised to speak.
What was the concept of stealing food from the Chess Corpse Group on Earth? The earth is now occupied by Game corpse, which is the headquarters of Game corpse. Luo Fei going to Earth to steal food was akin to breaking into a dragon pond and a tiger’s den.
Ike stared blankly at Luo Fei and said in shock, “Does World Government know what you’re thinking?”
“They don’t know. If they do, they might send someone to stop me because they are worried that I will ruin their cooperation with the chess corpse team this time. So I can’t let World Government know about this. Please keep it a secret for me.”
“What about Zuo Jie and the others? They are your friends and comrades in arms. Do they know?”
“It’s too dangerous to go to Earth. If I told them, they would definitely follow me. I can’t let them take risks with me, so I didn’t tell Zorge about my plans.”
‘”I…” Ike was speechless. He wanted to persuade Rofei, but he knew that no matter what he said, Rofei would not listen. Although this fellow usually looked easy to talk to, in reality, Luo Fei was more stubborn than anyone else. Once the decision was made, even ten cows would not be able to pull Luo Fei back.
Luo Fei said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about meeting you. When the time comes, I will bear the responsibility alone. I will definitely not implicate you. But please help me return to Earth.”
Ike sighed deeply. What else could he do? They all said that, could he not help?
Moreover, Luo Fei’s idea really moved Ike. Once Luo Fei successfully stole food, World Government would not need to trade with the chess corpse team, and the humans who had been captured by him would also be rescued. It would also buy Ike and the others time to delay until the artificial migration satellite was completed,
After some thought, Ike finally agreed to Luo Fei’s request.
“There are two ways to travel back and forth between Mars and Earth,” Ike said. “One way is to take a spaceship. But because the spaceship is too big, entering the Earth’s atmosphere is too dazzling, causing the chess corpse team to suspect it. So we can only choose the second way to return to Earth through spatial coordinates.”
“But haven’t the spatial coordinates been completely destroyed by Game corpse?” Luo Fei asked in surprise.
“No-!” Ike shook his head and explained, “Actually, there is a secret place. There is still an unknown spatial coordinate on Earth, but the chess team and the others have not noticed it yet.”
