How much manpower and financial resources does it take to build a residential area on a small satellite in a remote star system that is not suitable for survival?
"Is this what you built?" Zhong Yun looked at Yu Daoqing next to him in surprise.
"I often have to take spaceships to other countries. In order to protect myself, I have to train some trustworthy mecha masters. No matter how much money I spend, it is worth it." Yu Daoqing said.
Landed into the residential area, and looked up at the transparent shield with a slightly reflective height of hundreds of meters above the top. It was not only used to seal it, so that the air in the residential area would not leak into the universe. It was also an extremely solid protective cover with a thickness of more than three meters and could withstand the attack of 2,000 units of energy for half an hour.
Stepping on the metal floor, Zhong Yun had no feeling of lightness at all. It seemed that in order to facilitate human habitation, the entire residential area maintained a standard gravity.
After receiving the news that the young lady was coming, the base manager was waiting with the main members early in the morning. Yu Daoqing said some polite words, comforted and encouraged the members of the base. Then, accompanied by everyone, she came to the accommodation place.
As a guest, Zhong Yun's room is next to Yudaoqing, and the treatment is quite good.
He sat in the room and was telling Xiao Ling that he had learned his lesson since the last accident. He carried a liaison with him wherever he went, which was specially used to contact Xiao Ling.
In fact, it is not tiring to take a spaceship at all. Apart from the inconvenience of movement, the rest is no different from being on land. There is also a virtual network to pass the time, although it cannot be connected to the Internet.
As soon as she finished talking to Xiao Ling, the doorbell rang. It was Yu Daoqing. "Are you still used to it?" She looked around the room and nodded, obviously quite satisfied with the equipment in this room.
"What's wrong with me? Do you think it's my first time leaving Wall Star?"
"That's good." Yu Daoqing's eyes turned and she said, "It's also frustrating to stay in the room. Do you want to go out for a walk?"
"Okay." Zhong Yun was just thinking about it, stood up and walked towards the door.
"I'll take you to get to know the base first."
The two walked out of the house side by side and wandered around aimlessly. The buildings in the base were square, stupid big guys, who didn't look good, but they were very sturdy.
There were not many people in the base, and it seemed very empty along the way. Zhong Yun asked, "Did all the members of the base go to train?"
"Not all." Yu Daoqing laughed. Now the base is resting time. In order to save energy, heating is not provided outdoors, and it is still quite cold.
Zhong Yun took off his gloves and put them on her. In the base, because there was a protective cover to isolate the harmful radiation, the clothes he wore were not as particular as when he was on the spaceship. Yu Daoqing thought it was troublesome and did not wear gloves when he went out.
Yu Daoqing gave Zhong Yun a sweet smile and continued, "This base was originally built at the standard of 50,000 people, but so far, there are only two thousand people living in the base, so it seems particularly empty."
Because this satellite has no rotation, there is always daytime, and the other side is always nighttime, and there are some areas where there are daytime and nighttime, and the base is built here. However, daytime and night are irregular, and it is just the night now.
There is a lamp hundreds of meters away from the base, and it will light up whenever night falls.
These were all told by Yu Daoqing that when she saw some strange buildings, she would explain them. Like the things that were tall and thin, protruding beyond the shield, they were detectors used to detect enemy tracks and contact outwards.
"This scene is really familiar." After walking for a long time, Zhong Yun suddenly sighed.
Of course, Yu Daoqing would not forget that it was in the primitive tribe of that primitive star. She smiled with a heart. Looking back now, it was also an unforgettable experience.
"To be honest, you were really tough at that time. You killed those monsters so hard that they couldn't see them in a delicate way." Zhong Yun couldn't help but feel funny when he remembered her with paint on her face.
"Okay, since you dare to say that to me." Yu Daoqing stretched out her hand and was about to twist his ears, "It's big or small."
Zhong Yun grabbed her hand, "How big it is. When you walk on the street, others will definitely think you are my sister. Do you believe it or not?"
"Nonsense." Yu Daoqing was angry, but there was a sense of joy between her eyebrows and eyes, which was obviously quite helpful to this sentence.
"Call me brother, come and listen." Zhong Yun became more and more arrogant.
"It's so beautiful." Yu Daoqing gave him a blank look.
Before they knew it, the two of them walked through the entire base, of course they went to each place, or they looked around the main road.
Zhong Yun estimated it briefly. The entire base is about 1,000 square kilometers, the buildings are not dense, and most of the places are very empty. Many open spaces are used to grow plants.
Unfortunately, the figure of the mecha was not seen. According to Yu Daoqing, all the mechas were placed in the warehouse for maintenance. They would not be seen tomorrow.
Seeing that they had been shopping almost, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, Zhong Yun heard a huge bell ringing early in the morning. When he looked at the time, it was only five o'clock in the morning. In fact, it was difficult to tell the difference between morning and evening here. It was necessary to look at the time to avoid messing up.
Just as he was wondering what happened, someone knocked on the door. It was Yu Daoqing's life secretary who came to ask him to have breakfast. Zhong Yun followed her out.
Yu Daoqing was already waiting outside her door, "It's so early." She greeted her.
"Do you want to eat breakfast outside?" Zhong Yun asked.
The two walked forward side by side, with two or three female secretary following behind. Yu Daoqing explained that all members of the base had to go to the canteen to have a meal, and her identity was no exception.
"This is a very interesting rule." Zhong Yun remembered the scene of everyone having dinner together during the military training in college.
"It was decided by the previous Captain Liu." Yu Daoqing said.
The canteen is quite far from where they live. Captain Gu, the manager of the base, carefully sent a car for them to carry. Because the base space is limited, shuttle cars cannot be used, and there are four-wheeled sports cars here.
Looking like a car that looked like a Hummer style in his previous life, Zhong Yun felt very friendly.
Along the way, I met a team of members of the base. They lined up in an orderly manner and ran to the cafeteria. When they saw the car coming, they automatically made it aside.
Zhong Yun glanced at Yu Daoqing, "Your mecha teachers are very disciplined, like an army."
"How dare you compare with the army?" Yu Daoqing was modest in her mouth, but her eyes were quite proud.
When we arrived at the cafeteria, we waited for a few minutes and all the members arrived. At the order of Captain Gu, everyone started to have a meal.
"Is this your first time getting into a mecha?" The questioning was that Captain Gu arranged for Zhong Yun to teach him, named Bai Yuwan. A young man who was white and very gentle, about twenty-four or five years old. His hair was divided, which reminded Zhong Yun of the roommate who studied hard in college and received scholarships every year.
"Yes." Zhong Yun answered honestly.
"That's it." Bai Yuwan thought for a while and said to him, "Come with me."
He took Zhong Yun to a warehouse door, opened the door, revealing a half-kneel human-shaped mecha, about six or seven meters high. The surface of the mecha was not painted, and there was a cold silver light in the darkness.
Zhong Yun was a little excited and finally saw the real mecha.
"This is a mecha used by beginners to practice. All the weapons on it have been removed and cannot fly." Seeing Zhong Yun's face a little disappointed, he said with a smile, "Every mecha master has to drive such a mecha when he is beginners. The 'Tip' of the 5th mecha that year also came here."
"Don't underestimate this kind of practice mecha. It's not easy to pass the level. Let's go up and try it." Bai Yuwan said.
"We?" Zhong Yunqi said.
"Of course it's us. It's dangerous for you, a novice, to control the mecha yourself. I have to watch it." Bai Yuwan said for granted.
The mecha's driving room was on the chest. Bai Yuwan pulled Zhong Yun and stood on the mecha's spreading palm, "Stand firmly. No. 4 practices mecha and start."
As soon as Bai Yuwan finished speaking, the mecha started to move, holding Zhong Yun and Bai Yuwan to his chest with his hands. The thick breastplate opened with a "swish". Bai Yuwan stepped in first, and Zhong Yun followed him in.
The cockpit of the practice mecha can accommodate two people, Zhong Yun is in front and Bai Yuwan is in the back.
Bai Yuwan asked Zhong Yun not to move first, and then controlled the mecha to run to an empty place.
The shock absorption system in the cockpit is excellent. Zhong Yun can't feel the vibration at all while the mecha is running quickly. His head, body and feet are fixed by something, and only his hands are free.
There were four large and two small six monitors in front of me. After watching it for a while, Zhong Yun realized that it was the situation of six directions in front, back, left, left, and down. It was just that the images in six directions were placed together, and it seemed that they were really not used to it.
The mecha stopped, and Bai Yuwan's voice also sounded, "You must master one hundred and fifty-two basic commands and thousands of compound commands. You must not only master them, but also integrate these thousands of commands into your instinct."
When he started the lecture, Bai Yuwan's voice became stern, "To do this, you can only practice and practice. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Zhong Yun replied loudly, this was a habit he formed when he was at Yang Siqing's base.
Very satisfied with his attitude, Bai Yuwan's voice eased a little, "Now, I will teach you a few basic instructions first."
After saying that, something like a keyboard appeared in front of Zhong Yun, with thirty or forty keys on it, but he didn't recognize the symbols on it.
"There are a total of forty-five keys on the controller, and all the instructions are completed with these keys. You must recognize each key above clearly and do not press the wrong point without closing your eyes."
"Yes." Zhong Yun replied, thinking, isn't this just blind shooting? Is it the same as playing a game?
