Eight Hundred and Ninety-Fourth Initiative
The situation on the ground is a bit funny. The aliens stretched all the legs of the gem worm, and the six worm legs formed three superimposed splits. On the ground, no matter how the gem worm struggled, it was useless.
The bundled shape of the gem worm reminded Ye Han of the perverted hobbies of the Japanese people involuntarily.
The short alien is squatting in front of the jewel worm, poking his finger on the jewel worm's forehead once and for all. It seems that the force he used is not small. Every time he touches his forehead, the jewel worm's bright carapace There will be a dazzling flash.
Before, everyone thought that the flash on the ground was the reflection of sunlight by something like a mirror. It was not until seeing this scene that everyone knew where the flash came from.
Everyone had a strange feeling in their hearts—the aliens really used the bugs to the limit, and they couldn't even send a light signal without the bugs.
Observations revealed that the gem worms were very unhappy, and the luminosity would drop immediately if the short aliens poked their fingers with less force.
And the light seems to be a very heavy burden. There is an alien who keeps sending food to the worm's mouth. As long as he moves a little slower, the intensity of the light will also drop significantly.
Li Shili suddenly showed a smile: "Aliens are quite thoughtful, Captain Ye, what do you think they mean?"
Ye Han shook his head: "I don't know what the alien thinks, I only know that he is one of us."
"You mean that short man?" Li Shili thought of the top-secret information he had read before leaving, and suddenly understood, "Is he that military doctor?"
"It should be." Ye Han said, "The captives who fell into the hands of the aliens all turned into this look of neither human nor ghost."
Li Shili took a breath: "How strong is the heart to withstand this kind of change?"
"I don't know." Ye Han still replied, "I just know that if I become like this ghost, I will definitely not be able to survive long ago."
"This is really..." In the middle of speaking, Li Shili was stunned suddenly, "The alien asked him to send a signal. They know we've arrived and want to contact us, right?"
"I think so too." Ye Han nodded,
Seeing the scene on the screen, he understood what the aliens meant. And Li Shili didn't realize that the short man was a reformed prisoner at all, so it's not surprising that he didn't realize this.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Li Shili regained his energy immediately, "Hurry up and send a message!"
Ye Han said helplessly: "I'm thinking about how to reply to the signal."
Li Shili was stunned: "Isn't it all over if you just return the optical signal? Do you even need to think about it?"
"What should I use?" Ye Han immediately asked, "A laser cannon or a flashlight?"
Li Shili looked puzzled, and then suddenly realized: "I don't think there is a problem. The aliens must have known that we are coming when they send a signal at this time. They can see the spaceship, but can they not see the light signal on the spaceship?"
The location where Zeng Rui sent the signal was in the daytime of Jupiter, and the flashes from outer space must reach a certain intensity before they can be seen by aliens on the ground.
The optical signals between warships are generally transmitted by lasers, and there is no such thing as a strong light at all. It can't be a high-energy laser that shines on the ground, right?
That's not signaling, that's provocation!
Ye Han sighed: "I know that aliens can see, but what aliens can see does not mean that the ground can also see. I hope to communicate directly with Zeng Rui instead of letting aliens take over the answer."
The optical signal sent by Zeng Rui is very regular. Any marine who sees this signal will understand that this is a preparation signal before the official communication. As long as the fleet responds, the formal communication can begin.
"Then what should we do? Wait until night?"
"Either wait until night, or wait to fly a little closer and airdrop a set of communication equipment." Ye Han said the solution he thought was most suitable.
The formation is still two days away from Jupiter, and the optical signal can be transmitted without any hindrance, but the communication equipment cannot be air-dropped, so we can only continue to wait.
Li Shili nodded thoughtfully: "Captain Ye,
We just got here and the aliens are so impatient, what do you think they want to do? "
Ye Han was taken aback, he didn't think about it at all, and he didn't know how to answer, so he hesitated and said, "Is Zeng Rui in a hurry to contact us?"
"I don't think so." Li Shili said, "Do you think Zeng Rui can command aliens?"
"Of course not." Ye Han shook his head.
"Isn't that enough?" Li Shili pointed to the screen, "Being polite, people must ask for something. Aliens have initiated negotiations and are eager to contact us. There must be some requests that we can't figure out... Well, since it is Aliens are begging us, we must hold some!"
Ye Han suddenly realized: "You mean to leave them alone for a while?"
He doesn't know negotiating skills, but this simple truth is not too confusing. In other words, the aliens are too impatient, and doing so is tantamount to directly handing over the initiative of negotiation to human beings.
Ye Han thought for a while and said, "Leader Li, do you think Zeng Rui did this?"
Li Shili pondered for a while and nodded: "It's not impossible, but Captain Ye, I must remind you that although Zeng Rui was once your comrade in arms, he has been captured by aliens for so long, and he has become like this , It's hard to say if he still has our hearts in his heart...I'm not trying to provoke dissension, but people's hearts are unpredictable. You and I have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders, so we must be careful and never act emotionally."
"Don't worry, I won't." Ye Han replied in a deep voice.
From the bottom of his heart, he doesn't want to see his former comrades-in-arms betray humanity, but he is more aware of the serious consequences of believing in a traitor. Even without Li Shili's reminder, he would not trust Zeng Rui without reservation—if he really was Zeng Rui if.
"That's good." Li Shili showed a satisfied expression, "I'm a half-assed on military issues. I only care about negotiations, and you have the final say."
Li Shili took the initiative to clear the authority and immediately won Ye Han's favor. He immediately nodded to express his understanding: "I will definitely cooperate with all my strength."
Beidu has long clarified the rights and responsibilities of Ye Han and Li Shili. Li Shili, the negotiator, is only in charge of negotiations, and Ye Han will make decisions about the fleet or military issues.
But that being said, Li Shili, the negotiator, is actually a bit higher in rank than Ye Han, and the rank of the official rank is overwhelming. If Li Shili makes unreasonable demands, Ye Han will be in a very embarrassing situation.
It is impossible for Ye Han to agree to Li Shili's overstepping request, but if he refuses, he will offend this high-ranking official in the Northern Capital. As a senior official in the Northern Capital, which one is not able to see the sky? There must be an intricate network of relationships around him, and there are ways to embarrass Ye Han. No matter how you look at it, it is Ye Han who suffers in the end.
