“63.6s！！！ Light, it's a whole minute or so faster! ”

"Hyperspace! Hyperspace! We've opened the hyperspace tunnel! ”

"Hahahaha! I knew it! How could there be a problem with Academician Lu's theory! ”

"The land god is awesome!!"

Cheers, whistles, and applause drowned out Lu Zhou.

Still immersed in the joy of that dream, he was hugged by Senior Brother Luo, and grabbed his shoulders with both hands, swaying back and forth excitedly.

"You know what! You have written the history of physics! And the history of astronautics! Oh no, it's supposed to be the history of civilization! ”

"Hmm."

"After doing such a big thing, your answer is only one sentence, huh?" was so excited that he was almost crazy, and the expression on his face was distorted by excitement Luo Wenxuan, who didn't even know what he was talking about, "Why aren't you a woman, I can't wait to kiss you!" ”

Lu Zhou: "......?" ”

"You're shaking him out."

couldn't stand it anymore, Wang Peng, who was standing next to him, sighed and stretched out his right hand.

Luo Wenxuan didn't react, just looked at his two hands like two chopsticks, and was moved aside lightly.

"No, I'm fine...... I just didn't think about what to say. ”

Signaling Wang Peng, who was standing next to him, not to be nervous, Lu Zhou sniffed lightly, looked at the large screen not far away, and then looked at the researchers and engineers who were cheering all over the room, and continued.

"I might have to think about it for a while and give me a whole day...... No, it's still two days, two days should be enough. ”

After hearing this, Luo Wenxuan's eyes suddenly widened and said, "Two days?!" You can't disappear for that long! You're the protagonist of tonight's celebration party! We'll open the champagne and let the foam spray onto the ceiling, and everyone will cheer you by name as we toast, wishing you a long life, wishing you"

"If it's convenient, remember to record it and send it to me," interrupting Luo Wenxuan's chatter, Lu Zhou reached out and pinched his eyebrows, and continued, "I have some things to deal with here...... Regarding the research, Wang Peng, you go to the parking lot and drive the car to the door first. ”

"Okay."

Wang Peng nodded and walked to the door.

The quest completion prompt constantly reminds him that there is a huge sum of money waiting for him to claim. Even though he is still interested in sharing the joy of victory with his peers, he is looking forward to the world after lv10 in comparison.

He had waited too long for this day.

So much so that now he doesn't want to delay for a moment.

As for the chances of pretending......

For him, it's simply not too much.

Finally, after glancing at the big screen on the floor, Lu Zhou continued to look at Luo Wenxuan.

"Let the Courier prepare for the aftermath."

"Here...... I'll leave it to you first. ”

Throwing down this sentence, Lu Zhou gave Director Li a "look that there is something to be said the day after tomorrow", reached out and patted Senior Brother Luo's shoulder, turned around and walked towards the door of the command center.

At this moment, his gaze met that of Edward Witten.

The old man gave him a slight thumbs up.

Reading the words "nice job" from the dark green pupils, Lu Zhou also responded with a bright smile and strode out of the door.

……

Tens of millions of kilometers away.

In the silent depths of the sky, a shining point of light lit up. The titanium alloy skeleton and shell could no longer resist the expanding energy, and began to be gradually engulfed by the overflowing light.

Looking at the explosion that occurred hundreds of kilometers away from a distance, Liu Biao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly sighed softly and said.

"I guess they've opened the champagne."

"It seems to be like this......" Glancing at the radiation value detected on the gamma counter outside the cabin, Xu Zhenghong replied casually, "Just now the ground command center sent a message, and the experiment went very well. ”

"How much does this thing cost?"

Although he didn't know much about physics, his intuition told Liu Biao that the two pairs of wheels with small electric propulsion engines that fixed the ball alone would probably cost a lot of money.

Xu Zhenghong: "I don't know, but it is said to be over 100 million." ”

“…… It's okay to break 100 million. ”

Thinking that this thing was not burned in an experiment, but a pair, Liu Biao was suddenly silent.

After a long while, he said with emotion.

"It's still rich in physics."

Not far away, the Z-particle clock, which had completed its final mission, was completely engulfed in light.

Blooming silently, withering, and eventually like a withered flower, it dispersed into dotted "flames" in the infinite deep sky, and was slowly pulled into the tumbling sand by the gravity of Mars.

All this was recorded through a high-powered optical camera, Xu Zhenghong manually corrected the shooting direction, and finally pressed the button to stop shooting.

"Shooting done."

Reconnecting the life protection system to the spacesuit in the cabin, Liu Biao moved his shoulders and said with renewed enthusiasm.

"What's next?"

“…… Lean over and see if there's anything that can be recovered," confirming the mission instructions sent by the ground command center, Xu Zhenghong reached out and turned on the switch of the tail engine, "If you can, collect some samples from the wreckage of the Z particle clock." ”

The rest of the task is not much difficulty.

The damaged Z-particle clock did not explode violently, and most of the wreckage gathered together and maintained a highly consistent trajectory under the combined action of the solar wind and Martian gravity, moving closer to Mars.

Carefully approaching the edge of the wreckage, Xu Zhenghong controlled the Xiaguang to release the maintenance robot in the cargo hold.

I saw a robot about half a human height, holding a robotic arm nearly two meters long, pulled by a thick carbon nano cable, and floated towards the nearest piece of debris about 0.25 meters in diameter under the impetus of nitrogen.

Mist-like liquid nitrogen erupted from the spray gun, enveloping the shards, only to see the irregular shards emitting a hot white glow, cooling down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and restoring its original metallic luster.

"Parcel Sign."

A smile opened at the corner of his mouth, Xu Zhenghong continued to shake the joystick in his hand, manipulated the robot floating in the deep air, and continued to recover four samples in the same way.

After checking the few propellants left, he parked the robot that had successfully recovered the fifth sample in the cargo compartment and closed the cargo door.

"Five samples, that should be enough."

Talking to himself, he raised his right hand and pressed it on his helmet, switching to the channel where the ground command center was located.

"This is the messenger, the sample recovery task has been completed, we have not much fuel left, if we delay any longer, we may miss the best window to return, and request to return."

After more than four minutes of waiting, the voice of answer was heard.

"This is the ground command center, the return request has been approved, thank you for your work, we have prepared a banquet for you."

"Roger."

Turning off the communicator, Xu Zhenghong gestured to Liu Biao, who was sitting in the passenger seat, and the latter tacitly cooperated with him to start the orbit change operation.

The five engines were jetted at the same time, pulling out a blue arc of light in the deep sky.

Glancing at the fiery red planet for the last time, Xu Zhenghong suddenly had an inexplicable thought in his heart.

The thought told him that in the near future, he would have the opportunity to come here and even set foot on that haunting desert.

I just don't know what kind of task will be performed next time......
