I, Superman, the Supreme Commander

Chapter 125: Surviving a Space Crash

【Ding! Transmission completed! 】

[Current world...]

Before Zhang Hong had time to check the system information, his attention was attracted by the flash of an explosion in the black space not far away.

The place he traveled through was in space, and beneath his feet was a huge, slowly rotating aquamarine planet. And in space thousands of kilometers away from him, there stood a large man-made structure visible to the naked eye.

It was a vertical "well" made of cables and rings, extending from the ground to the depths of space tens of thousands of kilometers away. From a distance, it looked like a long hair growing from the earth. At the end of the hair was a huge ring-shaped space station as big as a mountain.

However, the situation of this "hair" was not very good at this time. Flashes of explosions kept bursting out from it, and the huge space station was also engulfed by flames and constantly disintegrated in the successive explosions.

When Zhang Hong saw the familiar appearance of this huge man-made creature, he instantly knew which movie world he had come to.

"The Wandering Earth"!

Hearing the screams coming from the space elevator and the space station, Zhang Hong did not hesitate and immediately rushed towards the explosion.

"Damn it! The escape system failed!"

"Tower, tower! There's a fire in corridor C3, we can't get out!"

At the Navigator Space Station, more than 300 astronauts from all over the world are trapped in the burning space station. The escape passage is engulfed by flames, and the escape function is invalid. They can only crowd in the cabin in despair and wait to die.

The explosion came too suddenly. The violent blast instantly tore apart most of the space station. More than half of the more than 1,000 space engineers who were building the space station in space died on the spot.

The remaining people were also quickly swallowed by the rapidly expanding flames and had nowhere to escape.

Just as the flames were about to engulf the remaining astronauts, the cabin around them suddenly came alive. The metal plates moved and combined, quickly reorganizing like Transformers and separating from the burning area.

In the blink of an eye, the space station was instantly broken into hundreds of pieces like a building block, with the intact parts, along with the astronauts inside, separated from the burning parts.

It quickly reorganized and merged into a new space station, which, under the influence of some force, moved away from the fire scene and floated in the geosynchronous orbit.

On the space elevator, the bridge boxes fell rapidly like fireballs. Suddenly, some of the connections broke, and they broke away from the cables. Without the cushioning, they fell freely from the sky.

The rolling bridge box and the strong feeling of weightlessness made the hundreds of astronauts in the bridge box scream instinctively.

boom!

The bridge box fell from a height of ten thousand meters, hit the ground heavily, and stirred up a huge cloud of dust.

The astronauts inside the cabin were knocked unconscious, dizzy and had tinnitus. After a long time of regaining consciousness, they unexpectedly found that they were not killed in the fall, and they cheered in surprise.

"Thank God, we are not dead!"

"Fuck God, we are so lucky!"

Not only did they not die, but they were not seriously injured either. They only suffered some bruises. It was a miracle that no one was killed or seriously injured after free falling from a height of tens of thousands of meters!

On the ground, in the airspace thousands of meters above the base of the space elevator, tens of thousands of drones are engaged in a fierce dogfight with hundreds of manually piloted fighter jets.

The drone defense system was hacked, and launched an indiscriminate attack on the space elevator and the astronaut base next to it. In order to protect the space elevator and the base, humans dispatched all pilots and fighter jets to fight against the drone forces.

Although the fighter jets are superior in terms of firepower and maneuverability, they cannot withstand the fact that the number of drones is several times that of the fighter jets, and their fighting style is reckless. While drones are constantly being shot down, fighter jets are also constantly being shot down.

"Tower, my plane is down! I'm parachuting!"

Pilot Lin Hu pulled the ejection lever suddenly, and he was ejected from the fighter plane along with his seat. A few tenths of a second later, his original plane exploded into a huge fireball in the air.

【Oops! 】

The falling seat was hit by a stray bullet in mid-air, and the parachute ejection device was damaged and could not be ejected.

Feeling the seat accelerating in the air and freely falling toward the ground, Lin Hu felt bitter. Damn, I am so unlucky.

The place where he was ejected was a full 800 meters from the ground, and it seemed that he would die no matter how he looked at it.

Lin Hu clenched his teeth, tensed his body, closed his eyes and left everything to fate.

More than half a minute later, he felt a violent collision and felt his chair hit the ground heavily. His whole body felt like it was falling apart.

[Hiss, it hurts so much!]

[Damn, the pilot who fell to his death died such a pathetic death! ]

Lin Hu cursed in his heart and waited for a long time, but the imagined death did not come as expected.

Instead, the pain in my body gradually eased.

He opened his eyes suspiciously, and saw that he was not missing any limbs. He touched his stomach and did not feel any severe pain from ruptured internal organs.

Lin Hu unbuckled his seat belt and jumped up, and was surprised to find that he was fine.

[Oh my god, I am so lucky that I didn’t even break my ribs after falling from such a high place!]

【Thanks to the Three Pure Ones, the Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and God bless you! 】

Lin Hu was just about to look for communication equipment to contact the headquarters when he heard a whistling sound of something falling. He looked up and saw drones flying all over the sky. Suddenly, they exploded and fell from the sky with smoke.

Just like making dumplings.

Immediately afterwards, giant fireballs as big as buildings fell from the sky through the clouds.

In the flames there was a clearly structured steel structure. Lin Hu could tell at a glance that it was part of the space station.

Looking at the hundreds of burning debris falling, Lin Hu suddenly felt a huge chill in his heart.

——The Navigator Space Station is finished!

Ten minutes later, in a blue crystal building in Manhattan, New York.

Reports on the attack on the space elevator and the crash of the navigator space station were sent to the directors of the United Government stationed here.

The United Earth Government, or UEG for short, was established fourteen years ago (2030). It is a supranational and supranational federal government established by countries around the world to deal with the solar helium flash crisis. The core of the United Earth Government is still the five permanent members, among which China and the United States have absolute voice in the United Earth Government.

After reading the report, Zhou Zhezhi, the top Chinese representative, asked his assistant Hao Xiaoxi: "Xiaoxi, have the casualties been confirmed? Have the missing persons been counted?"

"Confirmed, the whereabouts of all the missing persons have been confirmed. The death toll is 1867 and the number of injured is 3491."

Zhou Zhe just nodded without saying anything else, and continued to think seriously about something.

Hao Xiaoxi added: "Teacher Zhou, the survivors of this incident also reported some abnormal conditions."

After saying that, he brought up another report. After reading it, Zhou Zhezhi frowned even more tightly.

[Part of the structure of the Navigator Space Station survived, and 346 astronauts survived. ]

[Many pilots reported miraculously surviving after falling from high altitude. ]

[A large number of survivors were found in the collapsed buildings...]
