Earth Era

Chapter 232 Choose one of the two

Wei Feng's body is still very weak. After sleeping in the hibernation cabin for seven years, Wei Feng's various body functions have almost reached their lowest point. But Wei Feng had no other choice. Even if Wei Feng's choice would cause some irreversible damage to his body, Wei Feng couldn't care less.

The standing fusion reactor where the explosion occurred is located at the tail of the spacecraft. Because Wei Feng generally does not need to go there, a vacuum is maintained there and no corresponding life support equipment is installed. So Wei Feng had to put on a space suit before he could get there. After discussing with Ye Luo, Wei Feng managed to get up from the ground, held on to the wall and staggered to the dressing room, put on the space suit with the help of the robot, and then sat on the push-cart robot. . The cart-type robot will carry Wei Feng to the location of the incident. During the process of going to that location, Wei Feng can also take a short rest.

Wei Feng still felt that his head was a little dizzy at the moment, so Wei Feng kept biting his tongue hard, trying to wake himself up with the stimulation of pain. This maintenance mission is different from the past. If this maintenance mission fails, Wei Feng will never be able to return to the solar system.

Drifting in empty space forever, until the end of the universe, this ending makes people shudder just thinking about it.

"Captain, this is the repair plan I customized urgently. Please listen to it." As the cart-type robot moved forward, Ye Luo's voice came from the communication equipment next to Wei Feng's ear: "After the explosion, I have urgently Cut off all energy supply to the standing fusion reactor and forcibly stop its operation. However, it is still in a high temperature and high pressure state inside, and there may be a risk of secondary explosion at any time, so you must first depressurize the standing fusion reactor Open the valve, let it return to a stable state, and then repair the damage to the fuel reserve tank."

"The difficulty of this task is that the pressure reducing valve of the standing fusion reactor has been twisted due to a previous explosion. You must make sure not to trigger a secondary explosion. Use a tool to cut the pressure reducing valve to release the pressure within it.”

"Then you have to start repairing the fuel reserve module. It should be noted that the debris of various components at the explosion site is very messy. There is likely to be an energy spillover. These spilled energy may cause the spacesuit to malfunction and ultimately take your life. .At the same time, some sharp broken parts may scratch your spacesuit and cause the spacesuit to lose pressure, and some accidental impacts may also cause damage to the spacesuit equipment. At the same time, due to fuel leakage, the airflow there is very unstable, and you It’s very difficult to work in that environment.”

"I understand." Wei Feng nodded. "Don't worry, I have received more than 20 years of training on the earth. In such a situation..." When he said this, a strong feeling of dizziness enveloped Wei Feng's mind, making Wei Feng's body shake. , almost fell down. Wei Feng subconsciously grabbed the railing on the push-cart robot and stabilized his body again. The dizzy feeling lingered in Wei Feng's mind. Wei Feng bit his tongue hard and relied on the severe pain to regain consciousness. Then he said the remaining few words: "I can handle it."

"I'm worried about your health, Captain." Ye Luo said.

Wei Feng panted violently and said intermittently: "I...we have no way out. Isn't it?"

Regarding Wei Feng's words, Ye Luo chose to remain silent.

The push-cart robot entered the isolation cabin. The inner door closed, and the isolation cabin began to decompress into a vacuum environment. The outer door opened, and Wei Feng left the living area and entered the equipment area.

What greets Wei Feng is a long corridor. The lighting equipment in this corridor has been turned on in advance, but no matter how bright the lights are, there is always an eerie atmosphere lingering here. Most of the equipment here is in a deep sleep, and has not even been turned on since Wei Feng left the earth.

The push-cart robot moved forward quickly with Wei Feng. We walked through many forks and passed through many hatches. Wei Feng saw debris starting to appear on the ground. The further you go, the more debris there is. At the beginning, the push-cart robot could barely move forward, but when the passage was blocked by a collapsed large equipment, the push-cart robot could no longer move forward.

Wei Feng gasped and climbed down from the cart-type robot, then put the tool bag on his back and started walking forward. At this time, Wei Feng heard a sizzling sound coming from the earphones, so Wei Feng knew that the electromagnetic interference here must be very strong.

Too strong electromagnetic interference may cause the internal instruments of the spacesuit to malfunction. Without the protection of the spacesuit, Wei Feng cannot survive in a vacuum environment. But... just like Wei Feng said before, at this moment... there is no way out. Even though the solar system has entered a war at this moment, even though he has been abandoned by human civilization at this moment, Wei Feng still wants to return to Earth one day in the future. And if you want to return to Earth, you must ensure the safety of these fuels.

Wei Feng climbed up the fallen equipment on his hands and knees, but accidentally fell down while climbing over it. The heavy tool bag also hit Wei Feng hard on the shoulder. But Wei Feng didn't react at all. Wei Feng climbed up without stopping and continued walking forward.

The environment ahead was getting worse and worse. Looking at the debris here, Wei Feng knew that the explosion must have been violent. It also caused far more damage to the spacecraft than expected.

"It will probably take me a few years to completely repair the spacecraft." Wei Feng thought, "It's also possible... I will never be able to repair it as before with just my own strength."

Finally entering the explosion area, Wei Feng felt that the little physical strength he had finally accumulated was almost exhausted. But the current situation does not allow Wei Feng to rest anymore. Wei Feng gritted his teeth, took out the small cutting instrument from the tool bag, and walked to the standing fusion reactor.

Wei Feng looked forward and clearly saw the hole in the armor of the spacecraft, and also clearly saw the white airflow rapidly spurting out from the two cabins AB behind him. Under the impact of this airflow, it was difficult for Wei Feng to even stand firm.

Wei Feng first tied the safety rope to a railing to prevent himself from being rushed out of the spacecraft, and then began to carefully look at the huge equipment in front of him.

The standing fusion reactor that had withstood the baptism of explosion had been distorted to the point where its true appearance could not be seen at all. The pressure reducing valve that could be opened by pressing a switch was also hidden there. There are ruins everywhere, debris everywhere, and twisted steel wreckage everywhere. It is not easy to find the pressure reducing valve among the ruins. In particular, many handy tools cannot be brought here, and Wei Feng must rely on his own body to perform many tasks instead of those tools. This places high demands on Wei Feng's physical strength, and what Wei Feng lacks at this moment is physical strength.

Wei Feng squatted on the ground and tried to lift open the remains of an unknown piece of equipment, but no matter how hard Wei Feng tried, the remains remained motionless. Wei Feng gave up his plan to open it, and instead said to Ye Luo: "Ye Luo, stop the rotation of the spacecraft and eliminate the artificial gravity."

Originally, Wei Feng had not planned to do this, because without the artificial gravity, other accidents were likely to occur in the spacecraft. But at this moment Wei Feng could no longer care about this much.

"Okay." Ye Luo agreed, and immediately, many micro-propellers on the cylindrical hull of the Xinghai spacecraft began to spray in the opposite direction of the spacecraft's rotation, and began to slowly slow down the spacecraft's rotation speed. Then Wei Feng felt that his body gradually became lighter.

Gravity begins to disappear, making many physically demanding tasks much easier. Wei Feng just wanted to continue what he was doing, but at this moment, Wei Feng felt the spacecraft shake violently again.

Wei Feng's heart tightened and he immediately asked: "Ye Luo, tell me, what happened?"

"Wait a minute, I'm confirming." Ye Luo replied quickly. After a few seconds, Ye Luo said again: "Sorry, Captain, the sensor told me that another small explosion occurred in Area D. And a small fire occurred due to gas leakage... According to my analysis, this explosion has a direct causal relationship with the explosion here."

Wei Feng's brows immediately frowned deeply. Wei Feng was not interested in the cause of the explosion. Wei Feng only wanted to know what kind of losses the explosion would bring to him and how he could remedy these losses.

As if he still had some hope, Wei Feng asked slowly: "Zone D...the fire...has the navigation equipment been affected?"

"If you don't put out the fire as soon as possible, the navigation equipment will be burned." Ye Luo said quietly, "The automatic fire extinguisher has been damaged, so I don't have the ability to put out the fire. I can only rely on you to do it."

Wei Feng fell silent for a moment. Wei Feng knew what this meant. Wei Feng has only one person, and it is impossible to do two jobs at the same time. Wei Feng can only choose between putting out the fire to preserve the navigation instruments, or opening the pressure reducing valve and repairing the damage to the hatch to preserve the fuel reserves.

"Then captain, choose between the two options of returning to the solar system and going to the Nanmen II galaxy." Ye Luo said, "If you return to the solar system, you will not be able to go to the Nanmen II galaxy. If you go to the Nanmen II galaxy, you will never be able to return. Solar system. Between the two, you can only choose one." (To be continued~^~)
