Chapter 990 The First Batch of Advance Team
"December 1, 859 of the New Era..." Ke Lan silently recited this date, looked around again, and inspected the room he was in.
The equipment in this room are all very old models, which fit the background of the era nearly a hundred years ago... At that time, the Ark was still in the interstellar drifting stage. Although Alpha Star had been discovered, the first advance team had not yet
Without reaching Alpha Star, the people on the Ark naturally could not exploit the resources on Alpha Star...
etc!
The first advance team?!
Ke Lan couldn't help but think of those "knowledge points" in history books——
In the year 840 of the New Era, Ark discovered Planet Alpha.
In April of the same year, Ark sent the first advance exploration team to Alpha Planet. This advance team took a shuttle that was backward from a modern perspective. After a long journey of nineteen years, it finally arrived at Alpha Star.
.
In order to ensure the physical condition of the members of the advance team, most of the members of the advance team spent these nineteen years in hibernation cabins. Only those who were on duty would be awakened, and their task was to monitor the shuttle.
Check whether there is any deviation in the course of the ship, and perform maintenance and inspection on the equipment inside the ship.
Could it be that... I am now on the shuttle carrying the first Alpha Star advance team?
No, that's not right!
This is not real, this is a dream...Ke Lan suddenly reacted.
Back then, "The Fool" was one of the members of this advance team. What he saw now should be the scene in the memory of the Fool.
Ke Lan tried to rub the words on the nameplate with his fingertips... This is a plastic nameplate. The words on it are all engraved with lasers. Even if you can't see clearly with your eyes, you can still feel it with your touch...
Just imagine, every sentence in a recording will be missing some key information. It is not even replaced with "beep——" like sensitive words, but all related audio tracks are directly deleted. If a curious and
If someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder comes to listen, I am afraid they will already go crazy.
The gates on the shuttle are all sensor gates, which will automatically open when Ke Lan approaches. When the gate in the control room was raised, three women and one man turned their heads at the same time and looked at Ke Lan standing outside the door.
.
For the Ark civilization in the interstellar drifting period, any technology that does not promote survival is not necessary for development - entertainment activities are also limited to the lowest level, movies, music, literary and artistic creation... There are some, but they basically serve
The construction of the Ark is just like an era in the old era that is inconvenient to mention.
Ke Lan tugged on his collar and walked quickly towards the control room. Along the way, the synthesized voice kept reporting to him what had happened since his hibernation. Any information involving the Fool or the crew would be directly erased.
Go, this makes this report sound very uncomfortable.
He should have been awakened by the timing device of the hibernation cabin. As for the others, judging from the control panel of the hibernation cabin, they were all still in a normal hibernation state.
People with high myopia can see almost like this without wearing glasses.
"The memory fragment is unlocked, but not completely unlocked..." Ke Lan muttered and pulled out of the hibernation cabin.
However, Ke Lan is not in a hurry to go back. He doesn't know how to enter the memory world... Since he has come in this time, he naturally has to collect enough information to make the trip worthwhile.
He had already experimented with this in the bathroom - he smashed the floor-to-ceiling mirror with his fist, but in the blink of an eye, the floor-to-ceiling mirror returned to its original shape, and the wounds on his fist that were cut by the glass fragments disappeared.
Without a trace.
"It seems that no method will work..."
Ke Lan walked in without hesitation, not worrying about any danger lurking in the cubicle.
Those memory fragments should have been buried deep in his mind... that is, those things that Ke Lan always wanted to explore, but were shrouded in a thick fog.
"Then I'll call you Lu Dan." Ke Lan secretly decided in his heart that since he didn't know the names of the Fool and these people, he might as well give them an easy-to-remember code name.
They were wearing the same cabin uniforms as Ke Lan, so they must have been awakened in the same batch as Ke Lan.
As for now, maybe you can check the shuttle first... After all, some important information should be recorded in the computer on the ship. Once you get it, let it go. After confirming that this is just a fragment of memory in your mind,
On the contrary, Ke Lan felt relieved - although he could not find a way to escape from this memory for the time being, he thought that as long as the content of the memory fragments "finished playing", he would wake up in the real world.
At the end of the corridor is the "control room" mentioned in the synthesized voice.
The Fool in this memory fragment only remembers that he has an identity nameplate on his body, but he has no memory of what is written on the nameplate or his real name... As an "experiencer", Ke Lan,
Naturally, it is impossible to create something out of nothing and see things that "do not exist" in the first place.
"You really replaced the silencer with a beep?" Ke Lan complained, "The customization function of this memory fragment is quite rich."
"Even the body shapes are similar...well, the sizes are also the same..."
Ke Lan was suddenly curious about the Fool's real name, and immediately lowered his head to look at his chest - according to the tradition of the Ark civilization, the uniforms of these 'public officials' usually have identity information printed on their chests. This Alpha Star advance exploration team
Nature is no exception.
Ke Lan walked to the door. The sensor device on the door frame made a soft beep, the red indicator light instantly jumped to green, and the metal gate slid into the wall.
His complaint did not attract the attention of the four people. It was just a memory fragment. The people and things in the memory fragment all developed according to the established track. Although Ke Lan could participate in it, he could not have any influence on it.
It will not change the course of events.
"Beep - you finally came, I thought you were just like Beep - what happened?" The only male among the four smiled and greeted Ke Lan. His expression was very friendly, and he wanted to come and meet Ke Lan.
...The relationship with The Fool should be quite good.
This compartment is actually a "bathroom". In addition to the utensils used for washing, it also stores several sets of indoor uniforms for daily activities on the shuttle and an extravehicular space suit for operating in the space environment.
...These clothes were packed in transparent cabinets. Although Ke Lan could still see the nameplates on the cabinets clearly, he knew clearly that the cabinet on the far right contained his own clothes.
The most dangerous thing in memory is the taboo knowledge, but Ke Lan is extremely resistant to those things. Apart from that, nothing in memory can really hurt him - he is like
It's like playing an immersive game. Even if there is an alien lurking on the shuttle, even if the alien kills him, he will not be harmed in reality.
"If you're 'silencing' like this, you might as well replace it with 'beep——'. At least I can judge how many words are missing based on the length of 'beep——'." Ke Lan muttered to himself.
.
Ke Lan thought for a while, but had no choice but to give up - this information was probably deliberately blocked by The Fool...or to put it another way, it was deliberately "forgotten" by him.
Ke Lan turned around in front of the mirror. After making sure there was nothing unusual about his body, he opened the closet with his fingerprint, took out a cabin uniform, put it on, and walked out of the bathroom.
He can even use "death" to return to the real world.
He took off his hibernation clothes and stood naked in front of the floor-length mirror and looked at his body - the Fool's appearance in his memory was not blocked. It was a face that was almost exactly the same as Ke Lan's. This did not faze Ke Lan.
What a surprise... After all, he can be regarded as the "vessel" of part of The Fool's personality. His body was cloned from the Fool's cells. The genetic similarity between the two is higher than that of twins, so it is natural that they have exactly the same appearance.
This time, I probably triggered certain conditions and successfully unlocked this part of the memory, so I became addicted to this memory.
Ke Lan stepped through the gate. Behind the door was a straight corridor. There was a small cubicle on the right side of the corridor. The projection equipment projected a green arrow-shaped holographic image in front of the small cubicle, flashing continuously.
Apparently he was telling Ke Lan to follow the arrow.
In other words, they are the clothes of a fool.
"December 1st..." Ke Lan looked at the time on the screen again, "If you calculate it this way, I should be the last batch of 'rotators' to be awakened... The shuttle will arrive soon.
On Alpha Planet, these people will all wake up... I just don't know how long this memory will be, including the content of these people's exploration on the surface of Alpha Planet... At that time, maybe we can ask some questions from these people.
Useful information comes...as long as that information is not blocked."
This is a tall black man with a shiny, hairless head, like a smooth braised egg - the body functions of people in the hibernation cabin will be in a state of almost complete stagnation, and the growth of hair and nails will also change.
It had to be done extremely slowly, otherwise Ke Lan's hair would have covered his entire face after four years of sleep.
"Who are you talking about? What happened to him? What accident happened?" Ke Lan tried to ask "Braised Egg".
Even if he blows up the shuttle, it will immediately return to its original state in the next second.
"Identity verified, welcome back. It is now December 1, 859, New Era, 12:09. This is your fourth awakening. Four years and seventeen days have passed since the last time you entered the hibernation cabin.
The previous batch of crew members on duty has entered the mission log into the central computer, please go to the control room to check." Qingyue's female voice sounded above her head - this
Although the sound is very realistic, it still has a certain stiffness. When you hear it, you can tell that it was synthesized with AI after recording the sound source in advance... With the technology of Ke Lan's time, as long as the money is available, it is almost impossible to synthesize the sound artificially.
Distinguish between true and false. A hundred years ago, these technologies did not make much progress compared to when the Ark had just escaped from the earth.
But just when Ke Lan's fingers touched those words, he found speechlessly that the touch sensation on his fingertips disappeared directly, as if his tactile nerve was suddenly cut off.
When he returned to the corridor, the indicator arrow also changed accordingly, pointing straight to the end of the corridor.
There is more than one hibernation cabin on the shuttle, and these four people should have woken up in other hibernation cabins. Ke Lan spent some time figuring out his situation after waking up, which led to him becoming one of these rotations
The last person to arrive at the "control room".
Ke Lan did see the identity plate sewn on the hibernation suit. However, the words on the nameplate were blurred - this blur was not because the nameplate was contaminated or worn. No matter how hard it was wiped, it would not change.
It became clear, as if the problem was Ke Lan's eyes.
He then cast his gaze on the chests of those still lying in the hibernation cabin. The identity plates of these people were also blurred.
"You look like you haven't woken up. Do you need some medication?" The man smiled again, "If not, let's start working... We will arrive at Alpha Star soon. Can we help you?"
You have to stand on this last duty."
"It's the beep from the second group. He was originally a member of the previous group, but after being awakened from hibernation, he suffered a sudden heart failure within twelve hours and died without any chance of resuscitation.
Hey, logically speaking, we all went through detailed physical examinations when we were selected. If we have hidden dangers of heart disease, we will not be able to pass the selection at all..."
"There are some acquired heart diseases that cannot be detected if they don't get sick." Another female team member added, "Maybe his heart has developed unknown lesions while in hibernation..."
This woman has short ear-length hair, sharp eyebrows, and delicate facial features with well-defined cheeks, giving people a handsome and neutral beauty... The only flaw is that her chest is too flat, and she has no
It can't be compared with the braised egg brother's muscular and exaggerated chest muscles.
"Ah, yes, yes, you are a doctor, you are right...I just wonder, if there are signs of illness, the vital sign monitoring equipment should alarm in advance. Even if the heart is in a state of hibernation, the disease
, Aren’t the electrodes still attached? How come you couldn’t detect anything at all, and the alarm didn’t go off until the person fell to the ground?” Lu Dan said with some dissatisfaction.
"The human body is a very wonderful system. Modern hospitals' exploration of the human body is still at a very superficial stage. No one can say that they have figured out all the mysteries of the human body. Sudden death is not so bizarre...
If you are worried that you will be like him, I can give you a suggestion, get an artificial heart." The short-haired female doctor's words were very sharp, "At least, if there is a problem with the mechanical equipment and you want to find the cause, it is better than you.
