Chapter 1002 - Byte Level Communication
I calmly opened the skill list and found that the "Plane Communication System" had restored its online connection at some point, but the network speed was worrying, only 1 byte per second.
Chen Fei did not complain. As long as he could connect to the Internet, no matter how slow it was, having a signal was better than having no signal at all.
I don’t know how much time this task of the dog system took.
"'Adam', send a text message to Sanhao Xuesen and Shen Fei, the content is 'We-OK'!"
While he was still online and not knowing whether he would be disconnected, Chen Fei quickly sent out the most important message.
One letter occupies one byte. Taking into account the communication protocol, encryption and verification, the actual transmission rate is not just 5 bytes including half-width spaces.
Adam: Sending...
Then there is no more.
Chen Fei: ...
I'm afraid the actual difficulty is not as simple as the rate of 1 byte per second. He didn't take the delay into consideration just now.
"'Adam' ping the source."
The command line mode is not unique to DOS, but the instructions are passed down. Even after half a century, they are still inherited, and many instructions can still be used today. Chen Fei has made up for the DOS instruction set, so he is not unfamiliar with it.
Adam: Pinging *:*:*:*:*:*
Adam: Request sent, timing is in progress
00: 00: 01
The timer box of hours: minutes: seconds began to tick, and even Adam noticed that there was something wrong with the network connection that had inexplicably been restored.
After all, on Blue Star, any delay of more than two seconds is considered a serious sin.
00: 15: 16
Chen Fei waited patiently, tapping lightly on the armrest of the chair with his fingers.
Nothing can be seen outside the "sky", and it is unknown when the cruel winter on this planet will end.
"Atlanta" and its satellite cities within the "Sky Canopy" began to become livable little by little, but with the inexplicable restoration of communications with the Blue Planet, the situation changed again.
The new major of the Wei Army of the Royal Guards stood with his hands behind his back, ten feet away, like a javelin, without moving an inch. He neither listened nor paid any attention to Chen Fei's "mumbling" from beginning to end, and only did his job to remain alert.
The central building located in the core area of "Atlanta" is impregnable. If the enemy were really attacked to the floor where Chen Fei was, probably only one in ten humans in the entire city would have survived.
00: 20: 36
Adam: Reply from *:*:*:*:*:*:*: Bytes 32 | Time 1236 seconds | TTL=99
Twenty minutes later, Chen Fei finally received the receipt information after the text message was sent and the ping delay data.
The delay time is the same whether you see it or not, and the responses of the sending and receiving ends are very fast, so the only thing left is the time it takes for the radio signal to run on the way, ten minutes to go and ten minutes to return, so the whole round trip is twenty minutes.
Thanks to the almost pure electromagnetic environment of the planet "Antalu", in addition to the common cosmic electromagnetic pulses, even the stars are in an extremely stable state, so the electromagnetic waves carrying information are not subject to much interference along the way.
"'Adam', use the entire 'Atlan' and 'Sky Curtain' as signal transceivers to maintain a stable connection."
In order to ensure the hard-earned communication connection, Chen Fei took advantage of the structural forms of "Atlan" and "Sky Curtain", which were simply ready-made huge transmitters.
The Central Building happened to be the feed source of the antenna dish, and the floor where he was located was the signal focus.
Perhaps it was because of Chen Fei's current location that he inadvertently regained the signal from Blue Planet.
Artificial satellites outside the atmosphere finally confirmed the location of the signal source, a satellite near the second planet in this star system. The diameter of the celestial body is slightly smaller than that of the moon, and it is more like an asteroid captured by the gravity of the planet. After circling for unknown numbers of years, its orbit has finally stabilized.
Due to the satellite's revolution around the second planet, the signal will be blocked by the planetary body for ten to twelve days every thirty days, and the fourth planet "Antalu" will lose the connection signal again.
To solve the problem of signals being blocked by the second planet, we only need to launch several relay satellites at the second cosmic speed + and distribute them in the synchronous orbits of the second planet and the third planet. We can then establish a stable relay network and achieve communication guarantee throughout the year's star revolution.
There is no need to make any modifications to the entire "sky curtain". A feed device automatically evolved on the top of the "Atlan" central building, and the signal strength instantly increased by an order of magnitude. However, the rate is still 1 Byte/s, which is enough if used as a telegram.
Chen Fei was not wrong in his guess. The floor he was currently on was indeed the key to restoring communication connections.
beep!
Chen Fei received a new text message.
The data from Blue Star will be marked in red, and this time the subtitles that pop up on the AR visual assistance effect interface are in eye-catching red.
Shen Fei: I'm-OK!
A very normal joking reply.
Teacher Shen didn’t know that Chen Fei had participated in the “Wall of Sighs” operation. Not only her, but most people on Blue Star didn’t know that more than 10,000 people were lost for no reason, and their whereabouts were unknown.
So far, the news of the disappearance of the "Wall of Sighs" operation troops has been blocked among the top leaders of the Blue Star sovereignty. No more than a hundred people know about it, the general public is unaware of it, and the families are collectively in a stable mood.
If any leak occurs, it will inevitably cause an uproar, and even some sovereign ruling teams will have to step down.
Chen Fei breathed a sigh of relief. Teacher Shen was still his girlfriend, not someone else's.
A moment later, text messages from Monk Sanhao also came in.
"Where?"
Presumably, the reporting and confirmation of insufficient communication bandwidth to support voice or even video took up a lot of time, and the monks also followed suit and used letter messages to communicate.
Chen Fei replied immediately.
"'Sagari' ancestral land 'Antalu' is temporarily safe, all personnel are alive and well, spatial positioning is invalid, and we cannot return."
The limited communication bandwidth limits the amount of information that can be carried, so we can only make long stories short and the monks need to understand them themselves.
And then there is the second one.
"Life planet, harsh climate, survivable, nearby threats, God species x 1, named McNee!"
It is limited to simple text messages, just send it slowly byte by byte, this little time won't matter.
The third short message has been written, let’s go!
"'Atlan' is a trap, premeditated, or there may be a twist!"
That is to say, he knew something about Sanhao Xuesen. If it were someone else, Chen Fei would not dare to send such a concise text message.
If there is enough tacit understanding and the two communicating parties can predict each other, the communication delay may be compressed to less than 20 minutes.
The dog system released a new task without any warning. "Find the God-Species McNi" is just seven Chinese characters, but it revealed a lot of key information.
Previously, the God-Seed McNee remotely controlled the psychic Ginny to greet Chen Fei, and combined with the word "find" in the mission, it was not to kill.
This means that the other party is not in a hostile state for the time being, and there is room for communication between the two sides. This is the home ground of the "Sagari" clan, and even if there is an opportunity for dialogue, they still cannot be careless.
Moreover, this task is not as simple as simply "finding". There are obvious follow-up foreshadowings, which Chen Fei just couldn't guess for a while.
The truth can probably only be revealed when the god-seed "Sagali" McNi is found.
"Energy point reserve limit + 10000" represents the difficulty of the task. The dog system will never give Chen Xiaoer easy points.
This means that even if the location of the god-seed "Sagali" McNealy is found, the whole process will probably not be smooth sailing.
With just one sentence of mission release information, Chen Fei obtained a considerable number of clues. If he didn't even have this ability and acted rashly without sufficient intelligence support, the grass on his grave would have been overgrown long ago.
