"That's what I said. You're already sitting in such a high position. You have money, women, and power. Why would you be willing to give up your life and perish together with others?
Before pressing the nuclear button and destroying the world, would you leave a way out for yourself? "
Obviously, the spaceship "The Everlasting Truth" in front of him was the way out that the higher-ups of the Red Empire had left for themselves.
Otherwise, Chen Jin could not understand why the big shots, who had money, power, and women, would not enjoy a good life. Instead, they chose to perish together with others.
If it were someone else, they would rather be a little more cowardly than to go to such extremes.
The Everlasting Truth eliminated the doubts in Chen Jin's mind.
But why did this spaceship stop on the ground instead of flying into space and heading towards its target, the Sanctuary?
When the robots opened the door of the spaceship and entered the interior, they quickly found the answer to this question.
"There are traces of battle in the spaceship."
"Dozens of damaged robots were found."
"Seven corpses were found in the luxurious living cabin."
"The main engine of the spaceship was damaged by an explosion. It cannot take off normally."
"Master, it should be the soldiers stationed on the island. They started a rebellion and killed their leaders."
Alice guessed.
Chen Jin nodded. Alice's guess should be roughly correct. The luxurious living cabin in the spaceship was too luxurious. It was gilded and plated with diamonds. The walls were full of exquisite artwork. It was as dazzling as a palace. It was very gorgeous.
Under the low temperature, the seven corpses that were relatively well preserved were all fat like pigs. They were all above 70 years old.
There was a bullet hole in between their eyebrows. The bullet had entered from the back of their heads. They had been executed.
The expressions on the corpses' faces still retained the fear, despair, and collapse they had before death. There were yellow traces of urine and feces in the crotch area of some of the corpses.
"Uh …"
Chen Jin felt a little awkward. "This is not very decent."
But he could also understand the anger and despair in the hearts of the soldiers who had rebelled at that time. They had all been abandoned.
So, just as the "Everlasting Truth" was about to take off, they blew up the main engine, causing the spaceship to stop. Then, they killed their way in …
"Alice, is it possible to repair this spaceship? Can it be repaired?"
"Master, with the Base's current technical reserves, we are still unable to repair its main engine. The technical system is also not very compatible. Repairing it … is a little troublesome and will require a certain amount of time. Furthermore, it is too heavy, and it will be very difficult to move it to the Base. Repairing it in another place will be even more troublesome."
"Master, the most valuable equipment on this spaceship is actually the four sixth-generation high-power nuclear fission reactors in the engine room. Each of them is only 80 cubic meters in size, but they can provide 500 megawatts of power generation power and can last for more than 50 years … We can move these nuclear reactors back to the base and use the base's technology to build a new spaceship that will be more advanced."
Alice suggested.
Nuclear fission reactor?
Chen Jin frowned. "Why is it still a fission reactor? With the level of technology at that time, it shouldn't be too difficult to create a nuclear fusion reactor. Why did they still use this kind of antique? "
"Master, a high-power fusion reactor can be manufactured, but it's too big! The smallest reactor is more than 1,000 cubic meters. This does not include the relevant power supply equipment and control equipment … The total weight is at least 8,000 tons. It's difficult to stuff it into this spaceship.
Moreover, the difficulty of controlling a fusion reactor is extremely high. It requires professional engineers and a higher level of artificial intelligence to operate it. But there are only seven seats left on the "Everlasting Truth." The ship's operating system is only suitable for idiotic operations … So, there are only a few fission reactors installed. "
Alright.
To put it bluntly, the Russians in this world were similar to the Russians on Earth. The things they made were "stupid, big, and black." They couldn't handle things that were too sophisticated.
Chen Jin listened to Alice's suggestion. They would not move the entire spaceship to the Base. It was too heavy to move. They would let the robots cut the spaceship open! They would take out the nuclear reactor inside. As for the other parts of the spaceship that were not of much value, they would be left there for the time being.
Therefore, it would be more appropriate to say that they had "picked up four nuclear fission reactors."
Other than that.
In another mysterious naval base located in the Arctic Circle in the center of the Red Empire.
Under a thick layer of ice and snow.
According to a few arc-shaped bumps on the ice surface, a few pencil-like slender objects could be seen high up in the sky. They were arranged in parallel. Alice sent Flight No. 10 to investigate. After scraping off the thick ice on the surface of the "pencils."
They had picked up four nuclear snakeheads.
They were made of titanium alloy. They were 180 meters long and had a maximum diameter of 20 meters. They had an underwater displacement of more than 40,000 tons!
They were simply four behemoths.
As for the strategic nuclear missiles inside the nuclear snakeheads, they had all been fired. After completing their attack mission, they lay quietly in the military port, enjoying a long period of peace and tranquility … It was as if they were leisurely retiring.
They were the ones who survived until the very end because they were in perfect condition.
"Made of titanium alloy?"
The surface of the four nuclear snakeheads was shining with a golden luster. A word suddenly appeared in Chen Jin's mind: Rich!
"If this was on Earth, it would consume at least one year's GDP of a small or medium-sized country to produce such a nuclear snakehead. It would definitely cost tens of billions. The cost would not be lower than that of an aircraft carrier. "
Speaking of aircraft carriers, the UAV formation had also found a few in other military ports. However, they were rusty and black. They did not look good and Chen Jin was not very interested.
However, Chen Jin liked the four nuclear snakeheads in front of him very much. He planned to bring one back in the future and dock it at a port near the Base of Operations. He would let the robots transform it into a large sightseeing submarine that could travel around the bottom of the sea. When he had time, he would go to the bottom of the sea to relax and enjoy the scenery.
He was not afraid of accidentally bumping into the mountains at the bottom of the sea. It was made of titanium alloy. Who was afraid of whom?
Sigh … He sighed.
This was another spaceship that could take to the sky.
Another titanium alloy nuclear snakehead that could go to the sea.
It could go to the Ninth Heaven to pluck the moon.
It could go to the Ninth Ocean to catch a turtle.
Even great men did not live as freely as I did, right?
Chen Jin shook his head and sighed. He felt that he had accidentally become arrogant again.
"Calm down, calm down …"
Chen Jin muttered. His attention was placed on the last piece of land that had not been explored yet.
The mysterious country of the East!
"Within the territory of the Red Empire, the UAV did not find any survivors. They probably did not make it to the end.
Then, will there be a miracle in your … my motherland from a different dimension? Will there be some survivors?
Should I hope that there will be survivors, or should I hope that there won't be any?
It's fine if there aren't any. If there really are … how should I deal with it?
"Are we going to be ruthless? Or should I observe, make a friend, and listen to their stories? "
He shook his head.
Perturbed.
Chen Jin's feelings were very complicated and perturbed. There was a strong sense of anticipation, but there was also a faint sense of entanglement.
He shook his head hard and threw away all the distracting thoughts!
With a command, the UAV formations turned to the east and continued to advance!
