Chapter 1061
"WTF?"
"What is this all about?"
Xu Shenghan was shocked, but he didn't understand why.
He didn't know what that vertical long building was, nor why so many aircraft were suddenly plunging into the atmosphere.
It wasn't until those flying machines, which looked ridiculously small because of the distance, didn't slow down at all, and rushed towards the building like a colony of ants, that he vaguely guessed: The two sides seemed to be hostile?
What is happening in front of you... is it a war?
The spaceship and the building collide.
The air seemed to blur for a moment.
Xu Shenghan couldn't tell whether the spaceship launched an attack, or the slender creature counterattacked, or... it was just the high temperature disturbance outside the return capsule that distorted the air.
The next moment, dense sparks exploded at the place where the collision occurred, and many spaceships that hadn't had time to approach were also affected by the violent explosion and fell out of control like raindrops.
But compared to the loss of the spaceship, the damage to that miraculous building was even more serious!
Although I don't know what kind of material it is made of, it was not blown apart in such a violent explosion, but the ring structure attached to the main structure ignited a fire, and fell vertically along the slender main body of the building !
Its grand scale is not inferior to the disintegration of Xu Shenghan's space station.
"Ah!" Xu Shenghan, who was just seeing God, suddenly leaned back.
——He accidentally put his face on the porthole. Even though the return cabin has a very strict multi-layer heat-resistant treatment, the red shell has already transmitted the high temperature.
If it weren't for the system's protection, just this one blow would burn half of his face.
Xu Shenghan didn't give up, he didn't care about the burning pain on his face, he leaned over again and wanted to continue watching.
But this time, as soon as he approached, he felt that the temperature of the entire outer wall of the return cabin was astonishingly high, and it was unbearably hot even a little closer.
The red warning light flickered wildly, and the monitors went out one after another. After a few seconds, thick white smoke even began to emerge from between the monitor and the buttons.
——Special engineering plastics could not withstand the astonishingly high temperature and began to melt slowly.
The temperature in the return cabin continued to rise, and Xu Shenghan's entire face was flushed with heat, and a lot of sweat came out of his head, and the sweat quickly evaporated in the high temperature environment.
The air is starting to get scalding hot.
The reentry capsule vibrated violently. Even though the seat belt was tight, Xu Shenghan was still dizzy and had a severe pain in his buttocks. Finally, he could no longer care about the things outside the porthole.
But the water friends who were watching it vigorously stopped doing it immediately:
"Go on! What are you doing?"
"Go and see, go and see! That's a space elevator! Fuck, Yunmeng actually made a space elevator!!"
"The spaceship attacked the space elevator? What interstellar war! Let me see clearly!!"
"The anchor, please, hurry up and watch!"
"The anchor should not be ignorant of good and bad, don't read the report anymore!"
...
Xu Shenghan noticed the explosion of barrage, but he had no time to pay attention.
Now there are more urgent things to worry about:
"Look at the fart! I'm almost roasted!"
"it's too hot!!"
hot! hot! hot!
The unbearable high temperature made Xu Shenghan's body and spirit quickly approach the limit!
When he felt that he was about to ascend to the sky in the next second, the return capsule finally lowered to a sufficient height and automatically started the deceleration procedure.
"Boom!"
The guide parachute popped out first, and the deceleration parachute was deployed, quickly reducing the speed of the return capsule to 180 meters per second.
After 20 seconds, the parachute detaches automatically, pulls out the main parachute, and decelerates the return capsule to 40 meters per second in a short time, and then slowly decelerates to 8 meters per second.
The multi-stage parachute opening mechanism minimizes the physical burden on the astronauts.
However, Xu Shenghan's state had been pushed to the limit before, and the deceleration process just didn't continue to deteriorate. In the end, the return cabin ignited the reverse thrust buffer engine, and after landing steadily on the water, he didn't even have the strength to push open the hatch.
After resting for more than half a minute, he struggled to unbuckle his seat belt and screw the door of the return cabin.
——If you don’t leave, you can’t do it. The thick smoke in the reentry cabin made him cough.
Just the moment the hatch was opened, the turbulent water flowed in along the circular hatch, and Xu Shenghan, who was just about to leave the cabin, was instantly pushed back into the cabin by the water flow!
"Fuck!"
Xu Shenghan really didn't expect this, not to mention that his body was already on the verge of limit, even if he was in good condition, it would be difficult to fight against the turbulent water.
He could only try to lift his head up.
The sailor's experience told him: at this time, you can't rush forward, wait patiently until the water flow fills the return cabin, and it's time to get out of the cabin after everything is stable.
But the return capsule is a lump of iron!
But the return capsule is a lump of iron!
This thing sinks slowly while filling water, and when it is full, it has completely sank to the bottom of the water.
Xu Shenghan could hardly hold his breath anymore, he hurried out of the cabin door, swinging his arms and kicking his legs, trying to swim to the surface of the water.
But no matter how hard I tried, my body just kept sinking instead of floating up.
Only then did he realize that he was still wearing a heavy spacesuit.
In space, he couldn't feel the weight of the space suit, but on earth, this thing is not light at all!
Holding his breath, Xu Shenghan took off his space suit one by one, and finally lifted his head out of the water before his lungs exploded, and took a deep breath of fresh air.
The rest is much simpler.
Even though Xu Shenghan was exhausted, he swam to the shore smoothly.
When he touched the sand on the shore with his hands and stood firmly on the solid ground again, an indescribable peace of mind and solidity suddenly surged from the depths of his heart.
It's a bit like his mood when his voyage is over and his feet set foot on the port again, but it's a little different:
Stronger and deeper!
He has personally seen the land slowly rotating under his feet, and what he feels now is no longer simply standing on the beach, but has the illusion of standing on the planet.
Xu Shenghan felt that this moment was very important and he should say something.
So after some deliberation, he solemnly said to all the audience in the live broadcast room:
"I can feel...the earth turning."
The water friends immediately sent out a lot of question marks:
"???"
"Fuck you! Now you walk one kilometer to the south, and you will be directly at the Nude Beach, and one kilometer to the north, and you will be at the Seaside Paradise. You have been here before, why haven't you seen you feel the world turning?"
"Damn it, I guess the current virtual world is basically a plane!"
"Stop talking nonsense, where's my space elevator? Where's the alien invasion war?"
...
Xu Shenghan was reminded by the barrage, and immediately skipped the stage of "delivering a speech" and looked back to find that slender creation—now that he already knew, that thing was called a "space elevator".
This name is so vivid that you can roughly guess its purpose just by hearing it.
It's just that no matter how hard he looks now, he can no longer see any signs.
——Whether it was the space elevator or the spaceships that descended from the sky, they all disappeared. There were only some remaining space station wreckage in the sky, burning and falling.
Everything that happened just now was just an illusion.
Xu Shenghan turned around and sat down on the beach, looking at the sky and sea, reminiscing about the journey.
At the same time, on the azure sea, the credits roll slowly rolled.
Lin You, Xiao Meng, and Zhu Cixia were the first to appear on the stage, followed by the foreign aid they recruited.
But Xu Shenghan has no intention of paying attention to this list now, he is just a little confused: "This is... the end? I know this game is not a masterpiece standard, but is it too short?"
Hearing his emotion, the house manager jumped out and asked, "Do you know what time it is?"
"What time?" Xu Shenghan blinked, "12 o'clock? Should I have lunch?"
"Wrong! You should have supper!"
Xu Shenghan was taken aback by the bullet screen of the housing management.
He quickly opened the panel, and when he saw [21:50], he was stunned for a moment, and then——
A strong urge to urinate gushes out of the bladder!
"Damn it, brothers!!"
He obviously only felt two or three hours, so why did 12 hours just pass by? !
Xu Shenghan downcast at the speed of light, rushed into the bathroom, and finished releasing the water happily.
After that, I didn't have the patience to wait for the takeaway, so I went downstairs to buy supper.
After eating supper, he still has to go back to the virtual world to continue his struggle—he is now full of questions waiting to be answered.
While waiting for supper, he habitually took out his mobile phone and entered the "Gravity" player community to read posts.
Then just for a moment, he widened his eyes:
"What? Can the space shuttle be kept?"
"Can the Tiangong space station be kept??"
"The International Space Station...can be kept?!"
"Are you kidding me??"
"Are we playing the same game!??"
