Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 1: Destruction of Earth

The mysterious space is far away and silent, vast and deep. Destruction and birth are happening all the time.

Supernova explosions, gamma-ray bursts, black hole swallowing, planetary collisions, and all kinds of astronomical phenomena are magnificent and magnificent, but when magnified to the scale of the universe, they are just a wave in the vast ocean and a grain of sand in the endless desert...

A disaster came without warning on the third planet in the solar system - Earth!

From the perspective of the moon, it can be observed that a small sun-like ball of light suddenly appeared in the southern hemisphere of the earth, about the location of the middle desert of Australia!

It started as a small dot, which quickly enlarged and completely engulfed the entire Australia.

This is an unprecedented super explosion, similar to a nuclear bomb, but much more powerful than a nuclear bomb. Compared with it, the most powerful billion-ton nuclear weapon in human history, "Big Ivan", is not even one billionth!

In just a few seconds, the surrounding Pacific Ocean water was evaporated in large quantities, and the air waves extended into space at a speed of 5,000 kilometers per hour.

A large amount of dust quickly rushed out of the atmosphere, forming a mushroom cloud as long as 30,000 kilometers!

The diameter of the earth is 12,700 kilometers, and the final length of the mushroom cloud is more than twice the diameter of the earth!

The cause of the explosion is unknown. It was not a nuclear bomb attack or an asteroid. Humans did not detect any dangerous information in advance, and even before they reacted, the explosion had already occurred abruptly.

With the size of the earth, it can't withstand such a super explosion. The Australian area turned directly into a huge crater, and rock, soil and gravel formed part of the huge mushroom cloud. The surrounding seawater is pouring back into it crazily, and because of the extremely high temperature, a large amount of water vapor is raised.

At the same time, under this huge blow, global volcanic eruptions continued on the earth, and huge gaps tore the entire crust apart, spewing out hot magma, like bright red blood!

The silent universe seemed to be able to hear the last wail of this planet...

This is a spaceship about 40 meters long, 20 meters wide and high. It took off a few hours before the earth exploded and luckily escaped.

It is called "Victory". It was built by more than 20 countries at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars. It is the most advanced spacecraft in the world. Its effective load capacity is 500 tons. This mission is to transport supplies and technicians to the "Moon Base 1".

There are more than 200 people in the spacecraft, no, it should be said that there are 200 survivors: more than 20 special forces and more than 100 technicians. It was just off the earth, and then there was a tragic explosion. It can only be said that it was extremely lucky!

Everyone stared blankly at the planet that gradually turned scarlet, without any sense of relief at all.

The chain reaction caused by the explosion is still continuing.

The entire earth body did not suffer any particularly large damage in the face of this explosion. At most, only one-sixtieth of it was blown up.

However, one-sixtieth is larger than the entire moon! It has caused a devastating blow to the earth's ecosystem! Endless volcanic eruptions, coupled with the backlash of meteorite fragments, have caused the temperature of the entire planet to rise rapidly to 300 degrees Celsius!

Obviously, at this temperature, no one can be spared.

The entire cabin was quiet, and only soft sobs could be heard.

The Earth, the home of mankind, was destroyed just like that? Seven billion humans were extinct just like that? What should the rest do?

At this moment, twenty-five special forces soldiers were surrounding Yu Yifeng. They were all young, the older ones were about thirty, and the younger ones were only about twenty-three or twenty-four, but they all had the perseverance and vicissitudes of men in their eyes.

They hadn't rested for a long time, and although they were exhausted, they still stood straight.

This was the top space special forces of all mankind, perhaps... the last special forces. It was they who quickly took over the spacecraft after the chaos and maintained the final order.

They went to the moon this time to train in a low-gravity environment, but they unexpectedly escaped.

At this time, Captain Yu Yifeng cleared his throat and said in a low voice: "Everyone has worked hard these days! Witnessing the destruction of the earth and the loss of 7 billion compatriots, everyone feels bad, and so do I."

"I really hope this is just a dream. It's a pity... The earth really exploded, and this is a fact that must be accepted... We are lucky, we survived by chance, and we are also unfortunate, we have lost the earth and our loved ones forever."

He paused and continued: "But no matter what, we still have to live... We are still alive, as long as we are alive, we can't give up hope!"

"Now, Xu Yunjin, step out and tell me about the status of the spacecraft!"

Sitting next to Yu Yifeng is the deputy captain of the army, named Xu Yunjin. He is the oldest one in the army. He is tall and thin, and looks very capable.

Xu Yunjin stepped forward and saluted, saying in a low voice: "Captain, except for a few who had mental breakdowns, most of the passengers are basically stable. We also checked the passengers' belongings, and most of the dangerous goods have been handed over. The crew members are also relatively cooperative."

More than 20 people around nodded in agreement. No one would have thought that these senior intellectuals would behave so badly after witnessing the destruction of the earth. Not to mention fighting and brawling, some people even attempted suicide, but under the strong maintenance of the special forces, the order in the spacecraft quickly stabilized and no major accidents occurred.

It has been three days since the earth exploded, and this phenomenon has improved a lot. After all, humans are emotional creatures, and emotions come and go quickly.

Most people are afraid of death. Even if the earth is destroyed, they still want to live...

Yu Yifeng sighed, shook his head and said, "The earth is destroyed, and we have all lost our loved ones. You have all received professional psychological training and have a high tolerance, but they are just ordinary people..."

He paused and raised his voice a little, "Now I want to tell you that we still have hope to survive! We are not the only living humans!"

"There are still 50,000 humans alive at Base No. 1 on the moon!"

Yu Yifeng pointed to the computer and pressed a few buttons. A complex moon model appeared on the screen, with the moon base, the Victory spacecraft and various flight orbits drawn on it. Since the mass distribution of the earth changed after the explosion, the orbit of the moon also changed slightly under the action of the calculation program, and the spacecraft automatic control system has made relevant modifications.

He did not hesitate and said directly: "Look, this is our destination - Lunar Base No. 1. We are about to enter the lunar orbit. The spacecraft will reverse the jet to slow down. For safety reasons, I will turn off the magnetic system. So, be prepared in advance."

This spacecraft uses a lot of magnetic technology, and the clothes and shoes on the crew are made of magnetic materials. This material will produce a certain suction with the floor, so the crew will not be in a state of weightlessness in outer space.

Although magnetism and gravity are always somewhat different, it is always more convenient than not.

Seeing that the team members all nodded, Yu Yifeng stretched out two fingers, "There are two points to explain: First, after turning off the magnetic system, the spacecraft will be in a state of weightlessness, and everything will float. You must check whether each passenger has been placed in place and ensure that each passenger has fastened their seat belts."

"Second point." His expression became serious, and he pointed to a message on the screen, "There is a rebellion inside the base, and we must be prepared for the moon battle!"
