Chapter 214 Flying to the Vast Universe
"Okay, this is your ID number, which will accompany you for the rest of your life." The staff handed Shen Yahui an information card. Except for the string of numbers at the top, all the data on the information card kept changing.
"Please go to the left channel for the next procedure." The staff made a gesture of invitation.
Shen Yahui thanked him and turned to walk towards the channel on the left. Several beams of light kept scanning his body as he walked in the channel.
"Name: Shen Yahui, age 22, height 173, weight 120 catties, body fat rate 6%."
"Relevant bone data has been entered, genetic data has been entered, brain wave fluctuation patterns have been entered, and permission to enter the next procedure." As the broadcast in the channel sounded, the door at the end of the channel opened to both sides.
The reason for scanning all the data of all personnel is to prevent the occurrence of alien creatures in the universe who are good at disguise disguised as humans and mix into the Ark. After all, there are all kinds of creatures in the universe, and the empire is just preparing for a rainy day. At the same time, it can also observe what changes will occur to the human body after hundreds of years of dormancy.
Shen Yahui came to a hall similar to the waiting hall through the gate. People who entered the hall through other entrances sat quietly on the lounge chairs, not knowing what they were thinking.
"Attention all personnel, the flight is about to take off. Please go to the locker room to change into aviation uniforms and enter the spacecraft." A pleasant female voice sounded in the hall. Several flight attendants were standing at the door of the locker room and talking with communicators.
A few minutes later, the people who changed into new uniforms entered the passenger spacecraft. It seemed that in order to let these people take a last look at their home planet, the passenger spacecraft was equipped with a 360-degree holographic display, and the scene outside the spacecraft was clearly visible.
"The spacecraft is about to launch, please fasten your seat belts and don't walk around in the cabin casually." After Shen Yahui fastened his seat belt, the countdown sounded in the spacecraft.
As the countdown ended, the passenger spacecraft sprayed flames and flew into the air. The scenery on the ground became smaller and smaller, and the figures waving goodbye to their relatives on the spacecraft gradually turned into small black dots until they could no longer be seen.
The speed of the passenger spacecraft was very fast. After a few minutes, it broke through the atmosphere of Sith Star and came to the universe.
"Is that the ship we are going to take?" Shen Yahui saw the huge ship floating in the port in the distance through the holographic screen. The silver hull was dazzling in the sun.
"Dear passengers, the huge ship on your left is our destination: the Cancer Ark."
"Cancer will carry 20 million volunteers from all walks of life to the star region in the direction of Cancer. We will spend 60% of the time in hyperspace during the flight."
"The Cancer Ark equipped with the Empire's latest hyperspace engine will take 338 years to reach our destination."
"During these 338 years, we will randomly wake up 1,000 people on board every year to undertake the maintenance of the ship. This work will last for one year. You will bravely face all possible difficulties during this year."
"The maintenance technology of the ship will be learned through the consciousness infiltration device during your first year of hibernation. You will also learn feasible methods to deal with various crises and various skills for survival." The broadcast on the ship began to explain the journey in detail.
"Three hundred and thirty-eight years. I wonder what the empire will look like by then?" Shen Yahui muttered to himself while looking at the starry sky in the distance.
As the spaceship approached, the armor on both sides of the tail of the Ark unfolded outward, revealing a busy port inside.
The passenger spaceship stopped steadily in the inner port under the guidance of the holographic projection projected by the Ark.
"Dear passengers, you are currently in the inner port of the Ark. After the passenger spaceship evacuates, warships and spaceships with various functions will be docked here for defense to ensure that the Ark can reach its destination safely."
"Dear friends, you can board your future "home": the Cancer Ark." The voice of the stewardess on the radio was extremely sweet, but at this time, everyone had no intention of paying attention to the appearance of the stewardess. They were full of excitement. Here was the place where their dreams set sail!
Shen Yahui followed the crowd down to the port, and a staff member who had been waiting for a long time led everyone to get on the magnetic train in the spaceship and drove towards the location of the hibernation chamber.
The train is designed to be closed, but there are holographic screens on both sides of the interior, which allow passengers in the train to appreciate the appearance of the module when the train passes through the special module, relieving the depression of long-term space life.
As the train started, the scenery outside the window began to change, from a busy port to a workshop composed of countless machines.
"This is the manufacturing module on the Ark. It will be responsible for the construction of all damaged parts on the Ark in the future, as well as the manufacture of the first batch of large-scale industrial equipment for the establishment of the colony."
"Next is the equipment module of the spacecraft, which stores all the equipment you need for colonization." Dozens of huge warehouses flashed by outside the window, with countless construction vehicles and spacecrafts stored in the warehouses.
"Next is the storage module on the Ark, which carries supplies that can provide 20 million people with a hundred years of use, as well as a large number of seeds of various plants and fertilized eggs of animals."
"You don't need to consume supplies in hibernation. These supplies are prepared for your first century in the new colony."
"Now outside us is the only small leisure and entertainment area and planting area on the spacecraft. This is for the one thousand people responsible for the maintenance of the spacecraft." The soft female voice on the train broadcast explained to everyone.
As the train stopped at the hibernation area, Shen Yahui walked into the infirmary next to the hibernation chamber with the guidance of the road sign. Several staff members came forward to help him take off his clothes.
Just when he was a little shy, two staff members held his hands, and one of them held a shaver and shaved Shen Yahui's body clean, instantly turning from a handsome guy into a big bald head.
"Don't worry, because you will be traveling for hundreds of years, some fallen and necrotic hair may affect the operation of your hibernation chamber, and it will grow again when you reach your destination." The staff patted his shoulder and comforted him.
"Come on, lie down here." A staff member opened a hibernation chamber on a conveyor belt, and Shen Yahui nodded and walked over obediently to lie in the hibernation chamber.
"Next we will inject you with antifreeze. You may feel a little dizzy, but you will be fine soon." The staff whispered in Shen Yahui's ear.
