v4 Chapter 991： Detecting Wormholes

Earth spaceport.

The Star Destroyer Counterattack opened its hatch, and the Shenzhou spacecraft flew into the counterattack.

The counterattack star destroyer’s triangular pyramid is 1,667 meters long, while the Shenzhou is only 125 meters.

Therefore, Shenzhou can enter the counterattack.

After the hatch was closed, the wormhole exploration operation officially began.

Fang Yuan sat in the bridge of the Counterattack Star Destroyer, raised his hand, and ordered to set sail.

The Counterattack started the propulsion engine and flew into outer space. After leaving the spaceport 300 kilometers, it started the curvature engine and entered the curvature flight.

"According to the summarized wormhole information, the closest wormhole to the earth is near the asteroid belt, and the star system that this wormhole leads to is Tianyuan IV." Zhao Anya reported the first mission of the mission while reading the information. aims.

"Where are Tianyuan Four?" Niu Dazhi patted a bag of potato chips, tilted Erlang's legs, and asked while eating.

Eve said angrily: "Sister Ya, ignore him, this kind of common sense lets him check the information by himself."

"What the hell? This is called common sense? I know when I am angry and people complain, but Tianyuan Si has never heard of it." Niu Dazhi protested confidently.

At this time, Lang Xiaonian came over and said, "I know this, let me tell you. Tianyuan 4 is a star, very close to our solar system, only 10.5 light years."

Niu Dazhi continued to tilt Erlang's legs, counted with his fingers, and said, "It takes ten years to walk alone. You tell me it's close?"

"Ten times the speed of light under the curvature of the counterattack." Lang Xiaonian said.

"That's going to take another year, oh my god, it will take two years to go back and forth. You didn't say that this mission is so long, and I didn't bring so many snacks." Niu Dazhi looked distressed.

"I just said it three minutes ago. We walked through the wormhole, not two years, not two months, not even two days, only two minutes." Eve used **** to make a "two" gesture at him. , But I feel that this "two" is talking about him.

"Oh, that's all right... Then how long will it take for us to get to the wormhole?" Niu Dazhi turned to another question.

"If you only go to the asteroid belt, it only takes one third of a second at the speed of light." Lang Xiaonian replied.

"Are we so close to the asteroid belt?" Niu Dazhi felt that he became less and less sensitive to numbers, and he forgot to stuff the potato chips in his hand.

"There is no help." Eve shook his head with a look of disgust.

Lang Xiaonian went on to explain: "We are not using the shortest distance to go to the asteroid belt. We are going to the location of the wormhole, so we have to travel two astronomical units based on the approximate coordinates. If the speed of light is about 16 minutes, It should be almost there now."

At this time, only one hour has passed since we started.

The Counterattack Star Destroyer can indeed reach a curvature of 10 times the speed of light at its limit speed.

However, the faster the speed, the more energy is consumed.

When sailing short distances, it will not run at full power.

Therefore, when traveling to the wormhole in the asteroid belt, only 30% of the speed of light is used to fly.

Therefore, after sailing for more than an hour, it gradually approached the goal.

Fang Yuan stood up and moved his hands and feet, ready to confirm the location of the wormhole.

"Be careful. So far, the approximate location of the wormhole we got has not been confirmed. You must be vigilant." Zhao Anya reminded.

"I know." Fang Yuan replied.

The reason why Zhao Anya wants to remind her is because the aggregated wormhole information is obtained from Luo Hu and the Cleaner.

Therefore, accuracy and authenticity cannot be guaranteed.

"Everyone must also be vigilant, because this mission, we have to face, may be a trap." Zhao Anya raised her voice to remind everyone.

that's the truth.

This task is to confirm the exact location of the wormhole. However, all information about the location of the wormhole is provided by individuals from hostile civilizations.

Then, in this information, it is very likely that there are traps.

Wormholes are actually a kind of super-large spatial fissures.

Mankind has been conducting research on space fissures for 60 years, so the relevant research level is very high.

However, what can be called a wormhole is usually very large.

Because the wormholes are usually interstellar ships.

Like the Star Destroyer Counterattack, it was originally a Purger spacecraft of the Palestine civilization, with a side length of 1,667 meters.

To pass such a large spacecraft, the diameter of the wormhole must be at least 3000 meters.

Those space cracks that are several meters or tens of meters in size cannot be called wormholes at all.

Counterattack entered the asteroid belt and began to explore the location of the wormhole in the asteroid belt.

There are millions of asteroids, meteorites, and cosmic dust in the asteroid belt.

If you look at the star chart, they are densely packed dots.

However, in fact, there is a long distance between these cosmic dust.

"According to the summarized information, the wormhole should be nearby." Zhao Anya drew a circle on the star map while reading the information.

"Go around and turn on the wormhole detector." Fang Yuan ordered.

The area drawn by Zhao Anya is a bit large, covering millions of kilometers.

"Our wormhole detector is a bit bad, it can only detect tens of kilometers, which is too difficult to find."

The Counterattack flew around and found no wormhole, Eve couldn't help but complain.

The Counterattack originally had a wormhole detector, but it was destroyed.

With the current level of human technology, it is temporarily still capable of completely repairing the Counterattack, so some of its functions are missing.

In an area of ​​millions of kilometers, it is indeed a bit troublesome to use a detector with a detection distance of tens of kilometers to find it slowly.

Fang Yuan thought about it and said, "Lao Ye, that wormhole is at least 3000 meters in diameter. It may be found through observation in the asteroid belt."

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Ye Zheyu immediately activated the counterattack observation system and began to look for suspicious places in the asteroid belt.

Fang Yuan thought of a guy, so he rubbed a piece of fish food and threw it forward.

There was a guy in front of him, swallowing fish food in one bite, and he was chasing the puffer fish "big belly".

This guy has grown to the size of a millstone.

Everyone is no stranger to "Big Belly", Eve set up the automatic navigation, and went over and squeezed a few times.

"Find a wormhole, that should be your area of ​​expertise." Fang Yuan pointed to the dark space outside the spacecraft.

"Big Belly" opened his mouth and shook left and right. After receiving the second fish food, he slipped through the dimensional membrane and disappeared.

Everyone used various methods to search for half an hour.

Ye Zheyu suddenly said, "I seem to have seen a strange phenomenon."

"What's the phenomenon?"

"A fist-sized cosmic dust just disappeared. Is it possible that it was sucked in by a wormhole?" Ye Zheyu replied.

"Where is it? Just look at it and you'll know." Fang Yuan said.

Ye Zheyu reported the position, Eve turned the direction of the spacecraft and drove over.

When it was about to arrive, the "big belly" suddenly came out and swayed, indicating that it had found the wormhole and was ready to accept the prize.

Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and pushed it away, saying, "You are late, someone found it before you."
