Chapter 203 Sudden Attack
A small spaceship placed in the vast universe is like a grain of sand falling into the sea. It can sail in all directions. Therefore, once it leaves the sensing range of the Peninglang Empire Army, it will never be caught unless it is extremely unlucky and crashes into their encirclement. For the sake of caution, Rong Yuan still let the Wings of Freedom expand its sensing range to the maximum extent. If there are spaceships or fleets nearby, it will avoid them as far as possible.
Adventure and caution, recklessness and restraint, there are always two almost opposite sides in his character, which makes him always make seemingly bold moves, and then use his reason and prudence to plan carefully and find the best way to preserve himself and achieve his goals.
Although they have escaped the encirclement now, they don't know whether the Peninglang Empire will take the next step against them after sending the email, so Rong Yuan plans to return to Earth temporarily to rest. Moreover, he has obtained a lot of knowledge and information about the Interstellar Alliance from the Star Network that far exceeds Earth's technology, but he has never had time to take a look. He needs a peaceful and tranquil environment to absorb and digest this knowledge. The next time he leaves Earth, it will definitely be completely different from this time.
There are very few wormholes in the universe that can allow stable bidirectional travel. Most wormholes can only provide one-way travel. There are people who travel in the opposite direction, but in the end they all disappear in the dark doorway and are never seen again.
The same was true for the wormhole from Earth to Biqiu Star. They passed through two wormholes on the way here, but they had to take a different route on the way back, so the number of wormholes they needed to pass through became three. In front of the first wormhole, Rong Yuan said goodbye to No. 2.
When he left this time, he did not take No. 2 with him. On the one hand, if it stayed in the alien domain, it could better help him collect information and provide assistance when he came next time; on the other hand, it was also because he now had a good impression of No. 2 and did not want it to be killed by Noah after returning to Earth. Rong Yuan had no doubt that the stingy and domineering intelligent computer would crush its own replica into ashes in order to ensure its own uniqueness.
Therefore, No. 2 stayed. The small USB carrier that brought it here had long been abandoned. At first, No. 2 followed them and lived on the spaceship of the Biqiu Star Ge'ao. Later, the Executive Office contacted the senior officers of the fleet of the Peninglang Empire. Under Rong Yuan's command, it jumped onto the fleet spaceship and used it as a springboard to enter the star network. Now No. 2 no longer has an actual carrier. As long as the star network exists, it exists.
Rong Yuan couldn't help but wonder, if one day Noah also followed him to the interstellar space, compared with the current No. 2, who would be stronger between them?
Number Two is usually a silent guy with a weak presence, but after being separated from it, it was like losing a pair of eyes, and it was a bit strange. For some reason, Pea has always seemed depressed and doesn't like to talk much. And Amirida's lack of common sense has reached an astonishing level. Now that she has become a question baby, she is curious about everything. Rongyuan spends most of his time with her, and sometimes he selectively talks about his past. Whenever this happens, Amirida's eyes sparkle and she is very interested.
"Don't have too high expectations." Rong Yuan saw that she was very excited about setting foot on Earth, and couldn't help but pour a bucket of cold water on her: "It's actually just an ordinary primitive planet, with underdeveloped technology and various inconveniences in life. In comparison, Biqiu Planet is much more interesting."
Think of the spotless , the hovercrafts that respond to your call, the buildings with gorgeous or exquisite decorations, the simple and clever Piqiu Star people, and the universal welfare system that Rong Yuan later learned was comparable to that enjoyed by the average rich on Earth... Then think of the countless garbage waiting to be incinerated or landfilled on Earth, the congested traffic, the serious environmental pollution, and the current situation of various moral declines...
Rong Yuan couldn't help but touch Emilida's head with some pity. Seeing how excited she was now, he knew that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment in the future. It would be better to get a preventive measure in advance.
"I know!" Emilida nodded with a smile on her face. She had actually long since realized from Rongyuan's description that Earth was probably the most backward planet she had ever seen, but -
"You're here!"
It's the best when you are here.
…
Amirida had just finished taking a shower. Her still wet hair was wrapped in a dry towel. She was wearing a loose nightgown and lying on the sofa with her chin resting on the back of her hand. She was wearing sunglasses on her head and was watching TV. When she saw something happy, she couldn't help but giggle, just like an ordinary little girl.
Rong Yuan was not a good teacher. Although he thought it was necessary to teach Amirida common sense, he didn't know what to teach. One question always led to more questions, and the process of acquiring knowledge seemed to happen naturally. Then he thought of watching TV and movies. Although these works were always more or less out of touch with reality, the basics were still rooted in real life.
As for Rong Yuan himself, when he has time, besides resting his mind with his eyes closed while holding the stone, he also reads books. He is currently reading the middle school textbooks of the Peninglang Empire. He is very interested in learning about the humanities, arts, history, and technology of the Interstellar Alliance. Learning from scratch like an ordinary Peninglang Empire person is the most specific, comprehensive, and step-by-step method. In this study, he also discovered that some theorems and laws that are recognized as difficult on Earth are denied in the elementary school textbooks of Peninglang.
Rong Yuan imagined that if he was born in the time of Confucius, and then met a child from the future, who could use function graphs to solve equations when he opened his mouth, and the law of universal gravitation and time paradox when he closed his mouth... Well, now he can look at this knowledge gap more calmly.
No one wanted to talk, but such silence made them all feel very comfortable. The only sound was the notes in the player that kept jumping and flowing like running water. There were no specific lyrics, but just simple humming could conjure up a picture of a peaceful life in their minds.
"Warning! Warning! The Wings of Liberty will pass through a wormhole in half an hour. Please make relevant preparations. I repeat, the Wings of Liberty will pass through a wormhole in half an hour. Please make relevant preparations."
The music on the player suddenly stopped, and the automatic alarm on the spacecraft sounded instead. After a while, a weak pulling force could be felt. As the wormhole approached, gravity would increase very rapidly, and within a minute or two at most, the spacecraft would reach a gravitational acceleration comparable to that on the surface of the earth.
Rong Yuan and Aimirida were not in a hurry. They were already familiar with this situation. This was the last wormhole they needed to cross before reaching the Earth. After passing through this space jump point, they only needed to sail for another day and a half before they could land on the surface of the Earth. Aimirida went to the cockpit to set and correct the data, while Rong Yuan issued instructions, and the various devices on the spacecraft fixed all the movable items. After packing up, the two of them went into the nutrition cabin one after another.
"Rongyuan," before the nutrition capsule was closed, Aimirida suddenly asked with some anticipation and some trepidation: "Will we still live together after we arrive on Earth ?" When they wake up next time, perhaps they will already be above the Earth. The girl couldn't help but shrink back from the new environment and life.
"Well, of course, as long as you want." Rong Yuan said. Unless the girl found a loved one or wanted to live independently, he would never leave her alone.
Emilida already knew that he would answer like this, but she still smiled happily when she heard it. Then she thought of something and asked with some worry, "Your friends...will they like me?"
"Definitely." Rong Yuan was very confident about this, and reminded: "But aliens have never appeared on Earth, don't forget to change your appearance, otherwise it will cause a sensation."
"Yes, I always carry the mimicry clothes with me." Emilida nodded.
"That's good. Don't worry about anything, I'm here." The pulling force had already made Rong Yuan a little uncomfortable, he comforted her and then said, "Go to sleep."
He closed the nutrition cabin, opened the one next to it and lay down in it. His eyes went dark and soon his consciousness became groggy.
…
The forced hibernation function of the nutrition cabin can easily make people fall into a deep sleep. When he was suddenly awakened, Rong Yuan still felt a trance as if he didn't know what day it was. He blinked and saw the anxious little face in front of him.
"Pea? How..."
Before Rong Yuan could finish his words, he suddenly felt the ship shake violently and the sound of an explosion seemed to come from very nearby - they were attacked!
There was no need to ask why Wandou suddenly woke him up. Rong Yuan woke up instantly, pushed himself out of the nutrition cabin, and hurried to the cockpit while asking, "What's going on?"
"The Wings of Liberty was suddenly attacked about five minutes after leaving the wormhole. We are surrounded. The spacecraft has activated its protective layer, but the opponent's attack is very strong. I'm afraid we can't hold out for long." Pea said quickly.
"Who is the other party?" Rong Yuan asked.
"It's not clear yet..."
"The public channel has received a communication request. Do you want to connect?" A mechanical voice suddenly came from the player.
Rong Yuan was silent for a moment. It seemed that no one else would contact them except the attacker. He also wanted to know why he was attacked at his doorstep, so he said, "Connect."
