Chapter 76 Who is the New Deputy Director?
Time passed quietly.
The near-Earth asteroids in front of them, along with the dazzling sun, gradually came into the sight of everyone on the bridge.
Meteorites of various shapes are floating quietly in this universe, unchanged for thousands of years, faithfully recording the history of the universe.
"This is the largest group of near-Earth asteroids in the vicinity. They all came from Mars. However, due to the explosion of the World Tree, this place is also contaminated by a lot of debris. Even though it was cleaned up once by the waste dealer, it still cannot be cleaned up. The radar is of little use here."
The captain explained to the two.
"If we want to take action, we must hurry up, after all, this place is very close to the moon."
"Understood. Distance 500. Let's start."
Sitting in the seat inside the reconnaissance Jinn, Su Lei said while holding a black Haro connected to the console in her arms.
"Alright, the Red Team will go out on alert, and you guys can handle what happens next."
The captain cut off the communication after saying this.
"You heard it too, let's attack."
"it is good."
Their detection radar was now integrated into the fairing of the reconnaissance-type Jinn, and its enemy-searching capability became weaker, but its sensitivity to minerals was greatly enhanced.
After simply reporting their names, the two soon appeared in the vast universe.
The debris belt in front of us is full of various debris and asteroids floating everywhere.
The World Tree and the space junk accumulated by humans over countless years have been recycled by waste dealers, leaving only the less valuable parts here, some of which are bumpy and some are extremely smooth.
Technological products from different eras seem to have formed a hodgepodge that spans time and space.
It is this complex environment that can truly test the practicality of the radar.
"Mineral radar system is normal, automatic scanning mode is normal, mineral radar is on."
He Kui tapped on the keyboard skillfully, and an electromagnetic wave invisible to the naked eye was emitted, passing through countless debris and small objects around him.
At the same time, signals of various colors appeared on the radar screen and kept flashing.
"Black represents useless signal feedback, which corresponds to fragments."
He Kui first started with the signs that were the most numerous nearby.
"It looks right."
“Then the next thing is green, metals that have a role in industry.”
"but none."
Su Lei shrugged and said.
".Look for it again."
Finding a suitable asteroid is not easy either.
Two hours passed quietly, and just when He Kui's highly concentrated mind was about to fail, the radar finally made a series of "beep" sounds.
"A metal reaction was detected."
He Kui said this and immediately drove Jin En over there.
Soon, the asteroid that they had worked so hard to obtain came into view.
"It's an asteroid we haven't recorded. It must have come from Mars recently."
As he spoke, Jin En's hand had already circled around the asteroid, which was large enough for two Jin Ens to be tall.
"Although it is relatively small, using traditional radar, we can basically confirm that there is a piece of metal mineral inside this asteroid."
"Take it back. Today's mission is complete."
Su Lei said as she relaxed.
"it is good."
Just at this moment, the reconnaissance type Jin'en's communication sounded at the same time.
"Heat source ahead, distance 1500, Mobius number 3."
"It should be a patrol and planetary exploration formation. Stand still at the current position and turn off the engine."
Although the Nazca level can be completely beaten and run.
But considering the experiments they still needed to conduct, the Red Team also issued corresponding orders.
He Kui swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth. "He has been through hundreds of battles."
Su Lei saw through He Kui's thoughts and said.
"really."
He Kui was not dissatisfied. Upon hearing this, he controlled Jin En to lie on the meteorite.
"Can you be more graceful?"
Looking at the reconnaissance-type Jin En lying like a turtle during the physical examination in front of her, Su Lei was speechless.
“It’s less likely to be discovered this way.”
What does it mean to look good? Of course, Superman’s landing posture looks handsome, but it is also easy to be discovered.
Not long after, the three Mobius planes turned around and went back not far away.
There were no accidents on the rest of the journey back.
"But it would be great if your radar could identify other resources. As for the current two types of information, it should be used in conjunction with the old radar."
Su Lei said as she used a portable computer under the fuselage to transmit the radar data.
"For example?"
"Blue could be water and ice and rock, and red could be signals of unusual geological features or something like that."
"Blue should be achievable, but for red, there is too little data, and the data cannot be automatically analyzed."
This type of radar is used to analyze the feedback signal, including depth, density, shape, and composition.
Finally, conclusions are drawn through computer automation.
The problem is that abnormal geological features are what make rare metals truly rare, and PLANT has found only trace amounts of them so far.
"I'll go back and try again!"
The success of the radar test obviously made Su Lei excited at this time.
"Okay, but let's eat first."
"Wait till the transmission is complete~"
After hearing about the meal, Su Lei also came out of her excitement.
"Hurry up then, I'll do it first."
He Kui borrowed a kitchen from the captain, and after he prepared a meal of pickled fish from Earth, Su Lei also came.
"How can you make so much? Are you going to stuff me to death?"
Looking at the three fish in front of her, Su Lei was shocked.
"For the people on the ship."
"Oh."
There weren't many people on the Nazca level, and everyone ate in batches. There were only two people in the cafeteria at this time.
There is a hint of warmth in the silence.
Su Lei put the juicy and tender fish into her mouth. The sour and spicy taste gradually spread in her mouth, and the tender meat gradually melted on the tip of her tongue. Her expression of happiness and satisfaction also made He Kui, the chef, smile.
"I heard that the new deputy director of the Heilan Design Bureau will be selected soon."
He Kui whispered the rumors he had heard from the Waste Merchants Association's website before leaving.
"Well, it's time to select one. This position has been vacant for so long, so it should be selected from the reserve talents of the deputy director."
"Who will it be?"
There are only five deputy directors in reserve now.
It is already very difficult to reach the position of deputy director in reserve, at least it is still far from the current He Kui.
"It could be Valerio Valeri from the neutral faction who is responsible for the development of Xigu's power and systems, or it could be Erin Carbon from the Sara faction who is responsible for the development of Xigu's skeleton. It's hard to say at the moment."
The two people Su Lei mentioned are both experts who participated in the development of Xigu, and they can indeed become competitors.
"If it was Erin Carbone, some of the measures we talked about before might have been implemented."
Unlike Valerio Valeri, who was absorbed in research, Elin Carbone had a political identity and would naturally be more inclined to the National Defense Committee in decision-making.
In comparison, although Valerio Valeri was also arrogant and difficult to get along with, he at least just kept his head down and did his research honestly. The rest of the time he tinkered with some small components. Once he took the stage, he probably didn't even bother to pay attention to other people.
