Chapter 112 The Countdown Begins!
Fast, too fast.
Shi Ling felt that he was not ready yet, and he was about to start the moon landing.
But he had to be fast, because M country had already started the moon landing.
He had to get ahead of M country, or at least land on the moon at the same time as M country.
The blue moon affected the whole world, and there must be something hidden on it. He must not let M country seize the opportunity!
Shi Ling put on a light space suit and got on the boarding car. There were six other teammates on the car with him.
This was a vehicle similar to the urban management car and sightseeing car. There were several rows and several people could sit.
Shi Ling found a corner to sit down. He didn't want to be disturbed by others. He knew that the six teammates around him wanted to ask him something.
But just as Shi Ling sat down, the girl with a braided pigtail came to him and sat next to him.
"Hello, Shi Ling, my name is Yu Manzhi, I have met you before." Yu Manzhi sat next to Shi Ling and said in a warm voice.
Yu Manzhi was also wearing a space suit. Through the glass mask, Shi Ling could see her eyes. Those eyes made him feel familiar.
"Have we met before?"
"Yes, didn't we just meet two days ago?"
Shi Ling explained: "That's not what I mean. What I mean is, have we met before?"
Yu Manzhi shook her head: "No, we haven't met before, but I know you, Shi Ling, the only god-level strongman in the world."
"It's just a false name." Shi Ling was not modest, but told the truth.
But after he finished speaking, someone immediately snorted coldly.
Shi Ling paused. He didn't expect that there were people among the few who didn't like him.
But Shi Ling was too lazy to care about them. He now had only one goal, which was to land on the moon.
The car took them to the launch site, which was a remote mountainous area, but the road had been repaired, and there were surveillance cameras all around. Soldiers were armed with live ammunition to guard every corner of the area.
The airspace has been cleared!
Any drone trying to get close will be shot down.
This launch is top secret and must not be discovered by outsiders.
The seven people got off the car and then boarded the boarding stairs led by the captain.
The stairs were leaning against the rocket they used to land on the moon this time.
It was the first time that Shi Ling saw the rocket so closely. The rocket was so big that Shi Ling even thought he couldn't see the whole picture of the rocket because he was too close.
They came to the hatch of the rocket. The captain took out the key and then opened the hatch. Everyone immediately saw a narrow passage that could only accommodate two people side by side.
The captain entered first, and the others followed in, with Yu Manzhi following closely behind Shi Ling.
This is an outer ring passage. They entered this passage and saw the hatch connecting the inner ring after circling the outer ring for half a circle.
This hatch is different from the hatch outside. This hatch only needs to open the circular spiral lock to enter.
The captain rotated the circular lock and opened the hatch, and then they saw a hollow passage leading to the upper level, and this passage was equipped with a vertical steel staircase.
The captain climbed up the stairs first, followed by the others. They kept going up and then saw a closed circular hatch above their heads.
The captain said, "Through this hatch, we can see our cockpit and living cabin. Except for the part below here, everything will be abandoned. Now, you all watch how I enter our space capsule."
The captain began to operate. In fact, it was not difficult. It was nothing more than turning the circular turntable rapidly.
But after the captain opened the hatch, everyone saw a pressure chamber. This is where the air pressure is adjusted. Whether the astronauts go out or come in, they must first enter this place and then wait for the air pressure to adjust automatically.
They entered it and found that there were spare space suits in a transparent storage cabinet on one side, but there seemed to be only three spare space suits.
Shi Ling remembered this information firmly, and it might be useful after the launch.
After passing through the pressure chamber, they came to the work cabin. The space capsule that sent them to the sky this time had a total of six cabins, namely the cockpit, work cabin, living cabin, pressure cabin, propulsion cabin, and lunar module.
The entire space capsule is a cross structure, with the pressure cabin and the lunar module on both sides, and the four cabins in a row.
After arriving at the work cabin, the captain led them into the cockpit. Because of gravity, they could only climb the stairs. After entering the space, they would not have to work so hard.
Seven people came to the cockpit, sat on their own seats, and fastened their seat belts.
At this time, the tower issued an order: "Ten minutes to ignite and take off, please be prepared."
The captain immediately reminded: "Everyone should be prepared immediately, and those who are unwell should inform in advance. We will ignite and take off in ten minutes!"
At this moment, all the superpowers have become ordinary people. Their superpowers can't help them. They are about to take off, and they will use their bodies to bear huge gravity.
No one spoke. At this time, except for the three professional astronauts, everyone else was very nervous.
It is very risky for the lunar landing headquarters to choose a few superpowers to form an investigation team, but they also have their considerations.
After all, they have to compete with M country. What if they can't beat the superpowers of M country after encountering them on the moon?
This is a problem that the General Command must consider. Technically, landing on the moon is no longer a difficult task, but it is very expensive and it is not cost-effective to land on the moon now.
But if they really want to land on the moon, they are not afraid at all. They have sufficient confidence in the moon landing.
But they cannot predict what will happen after landing on the moon.
The moon is too far away from the earth. They cannot learn about the situation of the moon landing team in time, nor can they pass the instructions to the moon landing team in time.
Once they successfully land on the moon, they can only explore the secrets of the blue moon by themselves.
Everyone understands this, so they have been prepared for it.
No one spoke in these ten minutes. Although Yu Manzhi kept looking at Shi Ling, she was silent.
They were all thinking about their own things.
They were also worried about what to do if the ignition and launch failed?
With Shi Ling's god-level strength, if an accident occurs, then he is probably the only one who can survive, right?
Everyone except Shi Ling thought so.
"Time is up!"
A new order came from the tower.
"Countdown begins!"
"10!"
"9!"
The four people's hearts suddenly lifted. Their mental quality was not as good as the three pilots. After all, they were just ordinary people!
The three astronauts had received several years of training.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Ignition!"
