When Ned wore a space suit in the past, he always changed it inside the engineering ship, because this kind of suit itself was designed to be used in the space environment, because it was necessary to ensure that the wearer could maintain normal physiological activities in the space environment and not Affected by other factors from space - such as high and low temperatures, vacuum negative pressure, high-speed particles, solar radiation, etc., the weight of the space suit itself is quite terrifying, generally in the level of nearly 100 kilograms. In recent years, Carmel Due to the needs of the space environment and the development of aerospace technology, this weight has been reduced a lot now, but it is no less than tens of kilograms. If this weight is in a space environment, it is not worth mentioning at all. In a gravity-free environment, An ordinary person can even easily move dozens of tons of things, but now this is not space, but a space station - the biggest difference between a space station and a plane space station is that the plane space station like Carmel is completely "immersed" In the air, power needs to be continuously provided to resist resistance. Once the power is cut off, the space station will slowly shut down, but this problem does not exist in space - here, acceleration and deceleration both require power. Once the power is cut off, the space station cannot stop even if it needs to.
A space suit that weighs dozens of kilograms and is inconvenient for movement, coupled with an oversized fire extinguisher in the hand - this outfit looks a bit cool, a bit like Schwarzenegger carrying a 6-barrel Vulcan machine gun. But only by actually wearing them can you understand the cost of being a cool man - just these weights are enough to make it difficult for an adult man to walk, let alone run away with these things.
If you are an ordinary person, you will never choose to do such a thing now. The situation in the space station is so dangerous now. From the perspective of ordinary people, this situation is like a lion chasing an antelope on the grassland. Speed ??is life, and those who can survive to the end are generally The fastest one - just hold on until reinforcements arrive. This is what most people think.
If Ned hadn't been in contact with kl3014 for such a long time and hadn't heard so many "insights" from kl3014, maybe he would be like everyone else and choose to escape in an instinctive way, or even muster the courage to resist - but now He will no longer do those things, because as kl3014 said, these actions are essentially emotional, and they are ineffective emotional actions. In kl3014's view, these methods of death are tantamount to suicide. Human beings have always They are smart, but under certain circumstances, they often do the stupidest things. In this kind of environment, the most terrifying thing is not the enemy, but the panic and stupidity of the group. Everyone believes that they have "reached a desperate situation". Everyone is dominated by despair and even forgets to think - it is this convincing reason that exists in the subconscious that makes people selectively forget the possibility of survival. It is difficult to do so in a truly desperate situation. Many times, as long as you have the will to survive and a cool head, you can often seize many opportunities that go unnoticed.
On the surface, the space station is now surrounded by enemies. The enemies are compressing the encirclement, and the number of reinforcements is scarce. It seems that waiting is the only chance. But as long as you look beyond this battlefield, it is easy to find that there are many things that can be exploited. opportunities - the greatest of which is the enemy's stupidity.
In order to reduce Ned's casualties due to "accidents" in the war, kl3014 told him a lot about things that need to be paid attention to in space wars - the one he emphasized the most was the stupidity of these enemies. The Imperials might be using magic. There are indeed extraordinary achievements, but their understanding of technology may not be as good as that of an ordinary primary school student on earth. kl3014 believes that the most beneficial aspect of the space defense line to mankind is its high requirements for scientific concepts - in space , the pressure that both warring parties need to face is not only from each other, but also from nature.
There is no air, no normal pressure, and extremely low temperatures in space. The only place suitable for survival is the space station. It is foreseeable that this will also be the most intense battlefield - but the environment of this battlefield is so extremely fragile, kl3014 once revealed Through the staff's simulation of the space station battle-in the simulation, everyone made a shocking discovery that the biggest trouble that may cause the Imperial Army does not come from the counterattack of the coalition forces, but from the space station itself.
If you say what is most important to life, some people may choose water. If you think about it carefully, you may choose air, but you must truly consider it comprehensively and take all factors into consideration, then you will understand that temperature and pressure are the most important. Part - without water, a person can live for seven days, without air for breathing, and can hold his breath for several minutes. But if there is no temperature and pressure, then it only takes a few seconds to tens of seconds for the person's body fluids to boil due to the low-pressure environment. The evaporation will quickly cause frostbite to a large area. It can be said that the "lethal efficiency" of the space environment itself is even worse than that of poisonous gas.
During non-war times, the pressure and air of the space station are constantly replenished by internal factories. A small part of the air can be produced by growing algae and cultivating green plants.? to circulate, but most of them still have to use chemical means. As for the pressure, it is completely maintained by the space station itself. Maintaining these two survival factors requires energy consumption - and in a war, power supply must be the priority of the empire. The target of the attack, but they don't care what the electricity is used for. It would be fine if the space station is intact. With the air stored in the space station itself, there will be no problem if it can be maintained for several days. But the biggest problem is that most of the facilities of the space station, whether they are scientific research, civilian, or even industrial systems, are almost completely destroyed. It is arranged in the outer layer, because the outer layer can not only easily receive power from the solar power station through laser and microwave methods, but also has transportation advantages, especially weapon systems. In the war, this area will definitely be destroyed by the Imperial people first. It is really difficult to ask them to carefully close the hatches one by one while destroying them to ensure the pressure balance of the entire space station.
Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine that after completing the initial strike, the Imperial soldiers responsible for the attack will soon encounter unexpected casualties - due to the loss of pressure, a large amount of air in the station will leak out of the station, and even form a burst of air along this path. The wind is not small, and with the rapid loss of air, the soldiers of the empire will soon find that they have to abandon the "position" outside the station and move inside the station. If there are too many leakage points, this process will be very fast. , coupled with the rapid rotation speed of the space station itself, the entire space station will quickly become "shrunk" like a balloon that has just been punctured. It may only take less than half a day to make the entire space station The total loss of gas will create obstacles to human survival - by that time, neither the Imperials nor the coalition forces will be able to stay in this environment for a long time without the help of sealing equipment.
Ned is doing this now because he is betting that kl3014's judgments are correct. Although he doesn't like the feeling of basing his destiny on other people's judgments, his previous experience and countless people's discussions about kl3014 tell him that, This is the most reliable thing to do. Since you know nothing about war, let those who know it command you.
After walking out of the laboratory, Ned didn't walk very far (in fact, he couldn't walk very far even with a load of fifty or sixty kilograms). When he felt that his physical strength was almost exhausted, he found a room and got in. This is done because there is a lot of equipment in the laboratory and there is power reserve, which will definitely attract the attention of the enemy.
This room is an ordinary dormitory, with a layout similar to the one Ned lives in. Behind the door you can see large photos of celebrities, messy sheets that may still be warm, a rifle and a rifle beside the bed. The shoes clearly outlined the panic of the people here when they left. Ned carefully opened the door, leaned his back against the wall, and sat down facing the door. In order to save the oxygen that came with the space suit, he cut off the oxygen supply. , temporarily opened the mask, and then started waiting.
The voices of the crowd outside the room first became noisy, and then slowly became more and more distant. Only a few shrill cries for help echoed in the air. Ned could imagine that tens of thousands of people on the entire space station were attacking the enemy. Under pressure, moving towards the inner direction, and these unfortunate people were probably trampled and injured by the crowd in the process. Ned knew that he could not help them, and he could not even help himself - this transitional stage It will also be his most dangerous moment, because the enemy is approaching. If the enemy searches closely and he is discovered, whether he can survive depends entirely on the enemy's mood.
During this suffocating wait, Ned was suddenly surprised to hear a slight "whooshing" sound coming from his ears. If it were on Earth, then this sound would be completely normal. It was air. Flow, the kind of scream when passing through a narrow place, but in the space station, this sound is unusual - although there is wind inside the space station, most of it is very slight, let alone audible.
The sound did not dissipate quickly after it appeared. Instead, it began to get louder and louder. Ned could even clearly see that the scattered pieces of paper on the ground were beginning to be blown, and some dust was gently swirling in the room. A more detailed description The shape of the wind, and soon, a louder sound appeared - under the floor, that is, in the room further outside, there was the sound of things colliding with each other. Ned didn't know whether it was because of the wind or the people. If it was the former , that is excellent news, which means that the enemy will probably not search your position. If it is a human, then your life may not be much left.
