Chapter 726 A Nightmare
Xu You explained the questions raised by Luo Wenkun. For all the data, Xu You had made very detailed and precise calculations.
Just a lunar planetary engine has such a huge power consumption, which can be compared with the power generation of the entire blue planet in one year. This is an incredible thing no matter how you look at it.
Of course, with the maturity and popularization of controlled nuclear fusion technology, Blue Star's annual power generation will also grow , and there is no need to compare previous data.
After finishing a day's work, everyone returned to the lunar research station and prepared to rest.
Throughout the day, although Xu You and his colleagues did not participate in any substantive work, they were only testing and evaluating the progress of the project. However, in fact, the intensity of this work was still very high.
Because the workload involved in the planetary engine project is so huge, even if Xu You and his colleagues stay here for more than ten hours a day, there is still endless work to be done.
What's more, when working on the moon, everyone needs to wear space suits carefully and adapt to the gravitational acceleration on the moon.
Although the new version of the space suit is much lighter and thinner than the previous one, being in this environment all the time is definitely not as comfortable as on the Blue Planet.
After everyone returned to the lunar research station, they all fell into a deep sleep.
Luo Wenkun's mental state has returned to normal, but because this was Luo Wenkun's first day out with everyone after he became unwell, this day was quite difficult.
After lying on the bed, Luo Wenkun fell asleep quickly.
Xu You has much more energy than the average person. He only needs four to five hours of sleep a day and does some work before going to bed.
Relying on his unique sleeping technique, Xu You quickly fell asleep.
At midnight, the entire lunar research station was very quiet.
Except for a few staff members who were on duty, everyone was in a deep sleep.
When a person enters a deep sleep state, dreams appear naturally.
At this time, in Luo Wenkun's dream, Luo Wenkun came to a mysterious place he had never been to before.
There was endless darkness here, and Luo Wenkun could not see anything except his own body.
Luo Wenkun couldn't even be sure whether the land under his feet was real.
Just when Luo Wenkun felt overwhelmed.
Suddenly, a creepy monster appeared behind Luo Wenkun!
The monster was ten meters tall, gray-brown in color, with a ferocious face. It stood upright and ran towards Luo Wenkun.
Luo Wenkun looked carefully and saw that the monster had horns on its head, a face that looked neither human nor human, and its eyes emitted a dazzling blue light.
Luo Wenkun had never seen a monster like this before. The huge fear made him subconsciously run forward.
Because the monster was so huge and ran much faster than Luo Wenkun, Luo Wenkun was almost caught up by the monster before he knew it.
In a trance, Luo Wenkun reached out and groped in his arms.
"This is... a pistol..."
At this time, Luo Wenkun felt that everything around him was like a dream, and he couldn't tell whether he was in a dream or the real world.
But Luo Wenkun couldn't care less about all these. Before the monster caught up with him, Luo Wenkun had to do his best to fight back.
What Luo Wenkun didn't know was that in the real world, he had already climbed down from his bed, walked to Xu You's bed, and reached into his arms for a pistol.
At this moment, Xu You seemed to suddenly discover something, opened his eyes, and woke up Luo Wenkun.
"Wenkun, wake up!"
Hearing Xu You's familiar voice, the image of the monster in Luo Wenkun's mind began to become blurred.
Gradually, Luo Wenkun jumped out of the dream, and the scene in front of him became clear again.
"Wenkun, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Luo Wenkun sweating profusely, Xu You asked hurriedly with concern.
"I...I don't know. I seemed to have had a nightmare just now. I don't know how I got out of bed."
Luo Wenkun was in a dazed state, as if he had lost his backbone.
"Wenkun, have you ever had this kind of sleepwalking in the middle of the night before?" Xu You asked.
"Well... it shouldn't have happened before. I don't know what happened. This is the first time I had such a real nightmare that made me feel so scared."
Luo Wenkun also found this very difficult to understand. He had just recovered, but he didn't expect to have such a strange reaction .
Xu You didn't care about it, but smiled and said:
"Wenkun, don't take it too seriously. Today's work was indeed a bit hard, and it's normal to have some slightly overreactions."
"Well, sorry to disturb your rest."
"It's okay, go back to sleep."
While Luo Wenkun was not paying attention, Xu You noticed a detail.
The pistols of Xu You and Luo Wenkun should have been hung on the place where the pistols were hung on the wall, but at this time only Xu You's pistol was hanging on the wall.
Xu You did not mention this matter in front of Luo Wenkun, but kept it in his heart and went back to bed to continue sleeping.
… …
In the days that followed, Xu You and others continued to repeat this work.
Apart from the abnormal condition that night, Luo Wenkun never had any other abnormalities. Under the control of Xu You and others, the construction of the planetary engine went very smoothly.
At this time, Xu You and his colleagues were ready to temporarily end their work on the moon and return to the Blue Planet.
Before they knew it, they had been on the moon for several months. During this period, although the construction of the first lunar planetary engine was far from complete, they had already passed the most difficult stages.
What Luo Wenkun didn't know was that everything he heard, saw, felt and thought had been transmitted to Proxima b, light years away, through the super quantum that was parasitic in his body.
"What? Xu You and the others are going back to Blue Star soon?"
Upon hearing the news, the leading humanoid creature felt a little anxious.
These days, they have been thinking about how to interfere with the lunar planetary engine plan.
They also tried to use Luo Wenkun's body to carry out some lethal actions against Xu You.
