    Chapter 5: Sense of Danger

    The excavation work has been going on for about three months.

    At this moment, the Hope is only two thousand meters away from the ground. Due to the casting and installation of the anti-gravity system, the inner layer of the rock can already be excavated on a large scale using bombs. Due to the anti-gravity system, the blasted rock structure layer  , and there is no danger of collapse, so the excavation speed has been greatly improved. It is expected that the Hope will be able to take off in three and a half months.

    As it gets closer to the ground, the supermagnetic scanning system becomes clearer and clearer, and the entire planet is basically within the scanning range.

    This planet is about one and three times larger than the Earth, its rotation speed is three-quarters of the Earth's, and its revolution speed is slightly faster than the Earth's. At the same time, the planet's gravity is more than one and two times that of the Earth.  For those with weak bodies, they may feel heavy, dizzy, and physically exhausted after stepping out of the Hope. Of course, it is fine for those with strong bodies.

    Judging from the current detection, the coverage rate of green plants on this planet is extremely high. It is basically a primitive planet without any destruction. The living creatures have only evolved to reptiles. The area of ????the sea is 6% of the entire planet's surface area.  12. It is much smaller than the earth, so there are some dry desert areas in some inland areas, but the desert areas are still very small because of the huge forest coverage.

    All in all, judging from the detection results so far, this is a top-notch planet that humans dream of. It does not require any environmental modification at all. It is not the kind of terrestrial planet that can develop atmospheric colonization, but a planet full of human beings.  Green plants, the sea, the blue sky, and a variety of creatures, a perfect and natural living planet!

    These detection results were published one by one in Hope Weekly, making people more and more eager to go to the surface of the planet, and the calls for speeding up the excavation progress are getting louder and louder.

    In fact, Yao Yuan also had the idea of ????speeding up the excavation progress, not to comply with the demands of the people, but because he gradually felt a premonition of danger in his heart.

    Today was the time for him to confirm his premonition of danger. After lunch, he specially asked someone to call Zhang Heng. Of course, Zhang Heng was having an affair with Bai Ningxue and Luo Maomiao recently, so it was a bit uncomfortable to disturb him like this.  Okay, but who calls him a member of the Black Star Team? In this regard, Yao Yuan definitely puts business first.

    "That's it. I felt a premonition of danger, but I didn't know where it came from. I always felt as if something was going to happen." Yao Yuan told Zhang Heng his premonition, and then  He looked straight at Zhang Heng, waiting for his answer.

    Zhang Heng showed an expression that was indeed true. He thought for a long time before saying: "Actually, I also felt this kind of dangerous premonition, but this premonition was very slight and did not change over time like it did in the asteroid belt.  It has gradually become stronger in the past, but this premonition It seems that the feeling becomes stronger as we get to the ground. A few days ago, I read an article by Saburo Mitsuda from Hope Weekly, which said that new planets may have unknown dangers.  Viruses and microorganisms, he required personnel entering and exiting the Hope to undergo strict sterilization and sterilization procedures. I was thinking, could there be unknown viruses on the ground? But we had to go to the ground, so I didn¡¯t  I¡¯ll tell you this time¡¯s premonition.¡±

    Yao Yuan felt it carefully, thought about it carefully, and then nodded and affirmed: "It seems to be the same for me. I didn't feel anything at all before, but as I got closer to the ground, this feeling became stronger. Maybe  You are right. The danger premonition this time comes from microorganisms or bacteria and viruses on the ground. All living things on this planet seem to be unable to cause harm to us. Hehe, I will trouble you on this matter.  Any new premonition finds me in time, and tells me immediately wherever I am or whatever I am doing.¡±

    After Zhang Heng heard this, he stood up and saluted. He was about to leave when suddenly Yao Yuan said again: "Speaking of which, which one do you like, Bai Ningxue or Luo Maomiao? I don't remember that Hope has polygamy.  ."

    "Hehe, hehe." Zhang Heng smiled awkwardly, scratched his head and said, "Actually, they are both pretty good. One is passionate and bold, and the other is gentle and timid. They are both pretty good actually."

    "You kid." Yao Yuan shook his head and said: "Anyway, take control of yourself. If something happens, I will recognize the law and not the person. Don't imitate that kid Yang Wuluo. His military nickname is not very pleasant."

    Zhang Heng suddenly became energetic. He knew everyone in the Black Star Team. As a member of the Black Star Team, he had been completely accepted by the team, so he immediately asked: "Oh? What's your nickname?"  I do not know how?"

    "Uh." Yao Yuan looked around to confirm that Barbie was not outside the door.Then he whispered: "His nickname is that he uses both hands to masturbate each other's babies."

    "Gah?"

    All joking aside, after Zhang Heng left, Yao Yuan asked Saburo Mitsuda to be invited to the captain's room. After explaining the problem, Yao Yuan asked: "Dr. Mitsuda, I would like to ask about this planet.  What is the probability that microorganisms, bacteria, and viruses will appear that are absolutely fatal to humans? How lethal is it?"

    Mitsuda Saburo stood up politely and took the teacup handed over by Yao Yuan. He drank the tea and then said: "Captain, in fact, absolute lethality cannot be established because no viruses, bacteria, or microorganisms are harmful to the disease."  A race is absolutely fatal because human genes are highly variable. Although each human's genes are composed of twenty-three sets of chromosomes, and more than 99% are the same, there are also many internal differences.  In addition to changes in appearance, height, male and female, life span, etc., the degree of resistance to infection and fatality of various viruses is also different."

    "For example, even AIDS, a virus that is said to have no cure, has so far found many cases of people who are completely immune. Of course, they are still carriers of the virus, but the virus is ineffective against them. Similarly, when the population base exceeds  When large, no virus can kill all humans. Just like various antibiotics, some bacteria will always survive and evolve to become resistant to antibiotics. Antiviral bodies will also appear in humans and antibodies will be produced in their bodies.  ."

    "So, as long as there are antibodies, no virus is absolutely fatal."

    Having said this, Saburo Mitsuda stood up and bowed: "Captain, please set up an advance team to reach the surface as soon as possible before the Hope and obtain bacterial and microbial samples of the planet, so that we can make early prevention.  And conduct harmful experiments on these viruses, bacteria and microorganisms, as well as vaccine cultivation."

    Yao Yuan quickly supported him, pushed him back to the chair, and then said: "You don't have to be so polite, this is what I should do the advance team."

    After the conversation with Saburo Mitsuda, Yao Yuan hurriedly called Polly and related engineering team members, then explained in detail what Saburo Mitsuda said, and then proposed the idea of ??sending an advance team into the ground.

    "I know this may make your construction more difficult, but is it possible to make a small hole first and then let a team go to the ground? After all, it only concerns the long-term living conditions of the future home, and any danger is  It needs to be strangled in the cradle, and there is no way I will risk the lives of the more than 180,000 people on board the Hope!"

    Yao Yuan first said to several engineers in the engineering team.

    Several engineers looked at each other, and they all looked a little embarrassed. After a long time, one of the engineers said: "We can try to excavate a certain vulnerable point first, but if we have to excavate upward to the ground, then it won't be possible."  We can use explosives, because this is likely to cause the entire structure to collapse. Although there is an anti-gravity system to prevent damage caused by the collapse, it will bury the passage which is very difficult."

    Polly next to her suddenly said: "How about using a strong magnetic field?"

    "Strong magnetic field? What is this?" Yao Yuan recalled the various creations of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and asked curiously.

    Polly glanced at Yao Yuan and rolled her eyes and said: "I'm really sorry. I remember that more than three months ago, I wrote a report on the manufacturing of a strong magnetic field experimental machine, and you directly approved it with the words "not feasible," so I still  I thought you were completely familiar with this technology."

    Yao Yuan smiled awkwardly and said: "Because the materials you need are too much. Although it is slightly smaller than the giant particle collider, according to the experimental machine you proposed, it is estimated that it will take up to four points.  One floor is so huge, how could I agree to it Tell me, what is it?"

    Polly rolled her eyes again, and then said: "This is the inspiration I got from the Whisperer's skills when I was looking through alien science information, because the possibility of artificial gravity has been found at the end of the Fourth Industrial Revolution.  , of course, anti-gravity is still not feasible. This strong magnetic field is a by-product of artificial gravity. It uses powerful energy to create a strong magnetic field and produces a fixed force on matter within a certain range. This is a strong magnetic field.  It¡¯s just that the energy required is huge, so even if an alien civilization uses a polymerization reactor, it¡¯s impossible to put their main ship in a state of artificial gravity, which is completely different from our anti-gravity system.¡±

    Yao Yuan suddenly became interested, and he immediately asked: "What next? Do we still need to dig out and open a passage step by step?"

    "No, we use a more direct method." Polly said with a cunning and excited light in her eyes: "Rely on the anti-gravity system to keep those rocks from collapsing, and then rely on the strong magnetic field."?Let the rock stay where it is, in which case"

    "We launch the super electromagnetic orbital star destroyer cannon! Blast a two-kilometer-long rock channel upwards!"
