Chapter 67, Space rescue/robbery?
When the doomsday approaches, countless uninvited guests break free from the constraints of gravity, making the vast starry sky extremely lively.
Accompanied by roars and flames, spacecraft representing the cutting-edge technological level of mankind are being launched into space, carrying the hope of mankind to climb the temple.
With the rapid consumption of fuel, the completed launch vehicle was abandoned stage by stage. Only the small black shadow at the tip of the rocket still represents the pioneering spirit of mankind that dares to reach for the moon, abandoning all unnecessary encumbrances and continue to fly into the vast space with its head held high!
The background changes from the blue of the atmosphere to the black of space. It breaks away from the protection of Mother Earth and breaks out of the atmosphere. Under the reflection of the sun's halo and the light of distant stars, it proudly breaks into the vast space!
It flies around outside the atmosphere, overlooking the blue earth-our cradle and mother...
But... it did not continue to fly to the stars and explore the unknown universe!
On the contrary, it gradually turned its head and aimed at the earth where it was born, rather than the sea of stars in the distance!
oh! No! Don't come back! Hometown should not be your goal!
——The gods seemed to send out a silent cry from the underworld, but they were so powerless and pale in the face of human ambition and madness.
According to the predetermined program and the fine-tuning of computer intelligence, it continuously adjusted its attitude in orbit, gradually aiming at the target assigned to it in advance - not the desert or ocean where the aerospace department usually recovers satellites and spacecraft, but a densely populated and prosperous target. urban agglomeration!
Finally, under the gaze of the sun and stars, and to the accompaniment of the cold requiem, it pounced on Mother Earth, releasing a pile of sharp seeds of death - the intercontinental missiles of modern countries, Generally, multi-warhead technology is used. That is, a rocket carries 6-10 nuclear warheads. During the re-entry stage, they are released like a goddess scattering flowers. About half of the warheads are fakes that interfere with the ground interception system.
Once these evil seeds representing death and destruction are released, countless creatures on the surface will be immediately sentenced to death!
In people's ignorance or desperate lamentation, the black evil seeds began to spin at high speed, turned around and returned to the atmosphere. The front end of the warhead rubbed violently with the air, and even caught fire. People on the ground saw a bright meteor falling from the sky with a long tail flame.
This is a death star that will take away countless lives!
——With dazzling fire and huge roar, the Death Star slowly fell to the surface, emitting a dazzling flash in an instant, releasing huge light and heat, like the rays of a thousand suns, burning with incomparable ferocity. The whole world!
A violently churning fireball shot straight into the sky, getting bigger and bigger, and constantly changing colors, from violet to orange. Although it was as gorgeous as a colorful gem, it meant the most horrific death and destruction. This fireball will emit thermal radiation of at least 50,000 degrees Celsius - eight times higher than the surface temperature of the sun. It will blow hot hot winds with a speed of 800 kilometers per hour, just like a circle of ripples blooming from the calm water. The space between heaven and earth is rapidly expanding outwards, crazily The violence swept away everything along the way: concrete was turned into powder, gravel was burned into glass, trees were turned into charcoal, and human bodies were turned into ashes... Everything was burned, disintegrated, and gassed under the raging force of this terrifying force. Chemical...
Cities, fields, forests and pastures have all disappeared, leaving only flames, ruins, poison and charcoal, and the deafening wails of countless wronged souls!
Even if some people are lucky enough to survive the heat and shock wave of a nuclear explosion, the falling and ubiquitous radioactive dust will further destroy the bodies of the survivors... leaving them to die in a matter of hours or years. , died tragically with rotten and ulcerated body...
At the same time, a mushroom-shaped death cloud that penetrates the sky and the earth is slowly blooming in this land of destruction - as a symbol of human stupidity, short-sightedness, and selfishness, it stands tall in this world filled with death radiation. Between...
In other corners of the world, more nuclear bombs are being fired and launched, playing a dark movement of death and destruction to mankind...
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
In the eternal silence of space, floats the world's largest man-made celestial body so far - the International Space Station.
It is 110 meters long and 88 meters wide, roughly equivalent to the size of a football field, with a total weight of 400 tons. Under normal circumstances, it generally runs in a low-Earth orbit more than 400 kilometers above the surface, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Quietly overlooking the ocean and land below.
At this moment, the two American astronauts in the space station are numbly admiring the end of their motherland...or the end of all mankind!
——Hundreds of mushroom clouds rise one after another in every corner of the planet. Pieces of terrifying red and black, symbolizing the amount of lethal radiation, swallowed up the entire global electronic map in an instant. Even in space, one can imagine the tragic situation on the ground.
"...The United States and Europe are completely finished! Russia and China are also mostly finished. The nuclear war that did not start during the Cold War has actually broken out now! I really don't know what those politicians are thinking, in this kind of life and death crisis for all mankind. Are you still thinking about destroying the world?”
The beautiful female astronaut with long blond hair pointed at the screen and said, "...How many nuclear bombs have been exploded right now? Ten thousand? Twenty thousand?"
"...Taking into account those that use sub-warhead technology, the number of nuclear bombs detonated around the world may have exceeded 30,000..."
Another male astronaut sat on a chair, his hands dancing rapidly on the keyboard, "...We, Russia and China are all launching nuclear bombs at each other, and at the same time they have not forgotten to 'take care' of the Indians and European allies, and 'cleanse' them by the way." In South America and Africa, Israeli Jews bombed the entire Middle East indiscriminately, and North Korea bombed Seoul with nuclear bombs... At such a small distance, maybe they were hit directly with rocket launchers..."
"...First there was a global living dead attack, and then there was a world nuclear war...The world really seems to be coming to an end..."
The female astronaut spun around in the weightless mid-air, "...No one in Hollywood wants to film such a doomsday script!"
"...Now even if there are investors willing to shoot, there is no Hollywood anymore - that place has just been hit by a hydrogen bomb."
The male astronaut had a stern face and told a cold joke that was not funny at all, "...God! I don't want to live in such a wasteland!"
"...The problem is, the only thing we can do is watch the destruction of the earth here!" the female astronaut sighed.
Previously, the two astronauts made timely changes in orbit and raised the orbital altitude, allowing the International Space Station to barely survive the electromagnetic pulse attack of this global nuclear war. (According to the standard procedure for all-out nuclear war during the Cold War, the first step was to use space nuclear explosions to "clear" the low-Earth orbit, destroying all communication and reconnaissance satellites regardless of friend or foe.) Although the functions of many instruments and equipment were still damaged , but the life support system and some observation facilities are still functioning. , did not become a pile of eternally silent space junk like those reconnaissance satellites in low-Earth orbit... However, for the two astronauts, this was just a temporary breather - although on the International Space Station On board, there is also a Russian-made "Soyuz" spacecraft that can be returned to the ground. But the problem is, now that there are zombies and nuclear war on the earth, where can their spaceship land?
By now, even communication with the ground command center has been basically cut off.
Fortunately among the misfortunes, the food, water and air currently stored in the space station are expected to be enough to last for a few months. If recycled, it may last longer, but it is not like this with only no way in or out. Something that can last forever.
In short, the only thing they can do right now is to stay in space far away from nuclear explosions and zombies, quietly watch the world go to destruction, and at the same time, find a "relatively safe" landing site before the supplies are exhausted, and then Grit your teeth and take the spaceship down to try your luck. Pray to God to bless this "Soyuz" spaceship, just like the other Russian maozi's The products are also durable and did not malfunction in the electromagnetic pulse of the nuclear explosion; they also have to pray that fate will not throw them into a nuclear contaminated area, or next to a large group of zombies, or sink all the way to the bottom of the sea... Of course, take the best of it. Thinking about it, if all humans on the ground were to perish, they might become the Adam and Eve of the new era, but not necessarily.
——Although this probability is probably less than one in ten thousand...
Fortunately, a group of adventurers from another world are about to save them from their tragic fate.
"...Huh?" The female astronaut suddenly noticed something abnormal on the computer screen, "...The Japanese also launched intercontinental missiles? When did they master this technology? Or our troops stationed in Japan... No! God! That’s not a missile, it’s a spaceship!”
Amidst the chaos of the two astronauts, a cylindrical spacecraft that looked like a cheap children's toy rose from the eastern part of the Japanese archipelago, entered orbit at an alarming speed, and targeted Definitely moving closer to the International Space Station.
After a while, the voices of the two astronauts turned from surprise to fear - because they almost saw a Japanese primary school student wearing a yellow plaid shirt and dark blue shorts smiling. From outside the cabin, he knocked on the porthole and waved to them!
"...Oh my god...Debbie! Pinch my face! What did I see? A group of yellow children walking in the vacuum of space?! Are they supermen? Am I crazy or is the world crazy... …Hiss—did you really pinch it? It hurts! ..."
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"...Oh, these amazing naughty kids really don't take spacewalking seriously!"
Wang Qiu huddled in the slightly narrow cabin of the [Space Lifeboat], looking through the portholes at Nobita Nobita and his team, who had pre-illuminated the [Universal Adaptive Light] and stuffed [Oxygen Nasal Slugs] into their nostrils, on the outer wall of the International Space Station. "...Of course, for them who have visited countless other planets, ridden on the Galaxy Train, and fought in space wars, this International Space Station seems to be nothing strange."
Just as he said this, Doraemon had already taken out the [Penetration Ring] and got into the cabin of the International Space Station... After some unknown "persuasion", two Americans, a man and a woman, The astronauts were tied up like rice dumplings, and Nobi Nobita and others dragged them out...
——According to Nobita Nobi, he and Doraemon often go to the International Space Station in their world for "outings" when they have nothing to do. They are so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar, so they are now launching a surprise attack on the International Space Station here. By the time I was there, I was almost familiar with the world.
"...How is it? It looks like they have occupied the International Space Station. Do you have any new reward points?"
Ma Tong moved her body with some difficulty in the weightless cabin and asked Wang Qiu - Although she was "enjoying" a space journey that ordinary people could not experience in a lifetime, and her heart was filled with excitement and curiosity, she still cared more about someone. Something life-threatening.
"...successfully saved the International Space Station and received 1,000 reward points. The total points now reach 47,000, and we still need to continue to work hard."
Wang Qiu opened the "Book of Time Travel" and read it, then replied to Ma Tong, "... Next, we have to see how much money the International Space Station can be pawned, and whether it is enough to pay off Doraemon's debt. …”
——According to records, the total cost of the International Space Station is US$100 billion, which is equivalent to the cost of twenty US aircraft carriers (the US Nimitz-class aircraft carriers cost US$5 billion each), making it the most expensive in history. one of the buildings.
However, most of this appalling cost was spent on the launch costs of the launch vehicle. As for the various modules of the International Space Station themselves, they are relatively "cheap". The total manufacturing cost is "only" less than 10 billion US dollars... Although the most expensive toilet in the world is installed on it, one set costs Sold for $19 million...
In addition, this space station has been operating in space for many years, and the equipment and cabin are somewhat aged, so a depreciation fee must be deducted. In addition, it was affected by the electromagnetic pulse attack of the global nuclear war not long ago, causing a lot of damage... In this way, the price was reduced until the end, the entire space station plus a "Soyuz" spacecraft was only pawned to Doraemon for six dollars. billion U.S. dollars, or about 60 billion yen in cash.
But even so, after adding in the 230 billion yen already collected from the bed market, it is enough to pay off all of Doraemon's debts! So, Doraemon, who considered himself "debt-free and light-hearted", happily drove the "Space Lifeboat" and returned to Bedlord City with the two rescued (kidnapped) American astronauts... and then The anxious-looking Gao Cheng couple were hit with bad news:
"...This is incredible! Mr. Doraemon! Please take a look at what's going on! We just used a Geiger counter to measure that the environmental radiation intensity in this area is rising sharply! Now everyone has taken shelter I don’t dare to go out when I’m in the cellar!”
