Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

They do this in different ways.

But submarine optical cables are definitely no longer a suitable choice.

Therefore, satellite communication has become one of the best international signal transmission methods after wired transmission.

On clear (though extremely rare) nights, look out.

People still see the night sky.

In the wilderness area with little air environment and light pollution, the observed starry sky is actually the same as before.

But in the low, medium and high orbits of the earth, it has been covered with all kinds of man-made aerospace equipment from all over the world.

For example satellites.

For example the space station.

Such as space city.

International communication is still expensive, but it is no longer outrageous. Instead, it has been sent to thousands of households by various companies through commercial forms.

But that's still not enough insurance.

After witnessing the unscrupulous surveillance and theft of users' communication data by two companies, Netwatch and Data Term, Luo Qi clearly knew that this was definitely not an appropriate method.

These satellites are always in the hands of large companies, and even satellites launched by small capitals are prone to data security problems.

Because they are using other people's satellites, other people's software, other people's signal sending and receiving equipment, other people's channels, and other people's rockets.

No one knows which link of these steps is being pinched in the hands of other companies.

Luo Qi dare not bet.

He and the porcupine need a more secretive and reliable communication channel.

Hence today's newsletter.

Every syllable from their mouths is converted into an electromagnetic signal, which is rebroadcast through a space station called "O'Neill".

The purpose of this is to ensure that the satellites controlled by large companies are bypassed, and a long-distance way is used to ensure the high confidentiality of the content.

Until Roger finds an alternative reliable channel.

O'Neill Space Station (O'Neill Space Station), or O'Neill Colony (O'Neill Colony), is a space colony base consisting of four space stations.

at the Earth-Moon Lagrangian point.

Lagrangian point, in simple terms, is the force balance point between two huge objects, so it is also called translation point.

That is to say, the space station built here is balanced by the gravitational force of the earth and the moon.

The O'Neill Colony is the second step in the space colonization program, or the second generation program.

The first space station was called Titanic.

A not so auspicious name.

But these two things are things before the fourth corporate war.

If Rocky remembers correctly, it was around the 2010s.

The reason why O'Neill was chosen was because of its age.

Although like the ship of Theseus, the O'Neill series of space stations, which were first built at the L2 to L5 points of the Earth-Moon Lagrange, have been gradually upgraded and replaced with almost all parts, rebuilt and expanded during the long years of operation.

But thanks to the chaos and independence back then, the management situation here is the same as that of Night City for NUSA.

There are loopholes everywhere.

Roger easily found someone who could help them.

Then it is to pay the corresponding reward and wait for them to establish this secret communication channel.

But while reliability has improved, latency has correspondingly increased to an almost unacceptable level.

Limited by the shortcomings of traditional electromagnetic signals, that is, the transmission speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is approximately equal to the speed of light, the communication between Luo Qi and the porcupine has an impressive delay.

Very awkward.

It is roughly equivalent to playing games with a delay of several thousand milliseconds, which is personally felt to be a big head.

But fortunately, almost all of them rely on voice interaction, so you just need to be more patient, control the handover of the microphone sequence, and there is no problem in talking smoothly.

After all, it is different from the space station in low-earth orbit, still in the atmosphere, and only about 400 kilometers from the ground.

The closest Earth-Moon Lagrange L1 point is 320000 kilometers away.

【Unbelievable World】342967465

The speed of light is almost 300000 kilometers per second.

This is the first time that Roach has been so close to the mysterious universe.

Last time, I saw the advertisement of the Crystal Palace, the auction of the mansion at the Mars colony base, and the latest news about space pirates.

In this way, the universe is actually quite lively.

Those pirates are nothing more than high-end chaotic knives...

But it seems a bit too high-end.

Unlike the ultra-luxury Crystal Palace at the L1 point of the Earth-Moon Lagrange, the O'Neill Colony does have a feeling of being eliminated and replaced.

But anyone who is a mercenary knows-

The newer and better things and places are, the more airtight and safe they are.

What they want is the kind of air leakage on all sides, so that it can be operated easily.

European Space Agency (ESA), Japanese Space Agency (JAB), Soviet Space Agency (Neo-SSR), and Orbital Air (Obital Air) and so on.

The more forces there are in space, the more loopholes there will be.

This is what they like.

Especially the space stations gathered at the L1 point of the Earth-Moon Lagrange are simply a paradise for international, no, interstellar criminals.

Take the Crystal Palace as an example. The multi-layered spatial distribution around the same axis can accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Activities in the living zone with a radius of 2.2 kilometers are simply a fantastic interstellar journey.

Not to mention the big black O'Neal space station.

This is just a thing floating in the universe.

Colonies and development bases on the moon, Mars, or even Jupiter's moons are even more interesting.

But that is far from what Luo Qi wants today.

First figure out that stuff in the Gulf of Mexico, maybe Luo Qi has the capital to get involved in the messy things in the universe.

To him, Night City is just a stage.

The city was eating countless people alive, but he couldn't be one of them.

Capitalists also use this city as a base for freedom to take root. If the situation changes slightly, such as being recovered by NUSA, they will definitely choose a more suitable free city without hesitation.

Even instigate and set off a national civil war for this.

It is enough to support a resistance organization like the Freeman by selling the materials obtained from the looting of the Arasaka factory, but it is not enough to add a tactical bomber engine to Roger.

Not to mention Star Wars and Cosmic Wars.

That magnitude is far from enough.

"I only talked about it that day, so let's discuss the specific part now?"

When the porcupine was on the run, he got the help of Rogge, so he naturally didn't mind continuing to make the next move with this partner who had already reached a reliable deal.

It costs money to run away, and after settling down, the future life also needs money.

Although he was very powerful, he tried his best when running, but he didn't have much money in his pocket.

To be honest, it was beyond his expectations to be able to shake off his tail alive and reach Europe.

"Don't worry, your part will not be less, but we'd better make an agreement."

Rocky nodded.

He could hear it, and the other party was not deliberately hiding the fact of lack of money.

Mutual benefit and win-win is naturally the best, since the other party has this intention, then Luo Qi doesn't have to worry too much.

"I will pay for the necessary expenses, but if you can save me more money under the same conditions, then your share will increase accordingly."

"In other words, save money while being as reliable as possible," Roach said.

"Saving money? Everyone wants to save money."

Porcupine said helplessly after hearing this typical Party A's remarks.

"So the saved part is for you."

Rocky laughed.

Why would he say that?

Because according to the previous plan, the budget report Rogge gave him was eight figures.

It's not petty money.

If the same thing happened in Night City instead of the Gulf of Mexico, then this budget could be directly cut to one-fifth of the original amount, or even lower.

The expense of insuring a long distance is staggering.

And unlike airplane flights, the farther the distance is, the cost performance will not improve, but the cost will increase exponentially.

【Unbelievable World】342967465

Just think about it, from the Gulf of Mexico, across the national and state borders all the way, to ensure that it will not be affected by the company's security, border guards, high-speed police, and chaos. What a reliable transportation system is needed.

This is the budget that Rogge obtained by combining his own channel operation experience.

If you plan to build a new, hidden route yourself, that can be a real high price.

Otherwise, Arasaka would not have chosen to cooperate with the Chavez tribe to murder the Buckle family at that time.

Money is one thing, operating and organizing manpower, selecting equipment and vehicles is another time-consuming and labor-intensive project.

This is also one of the reasons why many logistics companies, when smuggling, choose to cooperate with the homeless and the Chaos Knife Society on the bad land.

Biotech had colluded with the Bright family before, probably with the same idea in mind.

It's probably worse than that, though.

Because Sol and the others were probably just used as tool people. After using them a few times, they found a hot job and buried them in a pit along the way.

This was initially speculation by Luo Qi and V, but it has not been confirmed.

But after telling the porcupine, he just smiled lightly.

Not much to say.

it is more than words.

He did dirty work for biotech for 11 years, traveled all over Central and South America, and never had a good end.

As for the deceit and hypocrisy he has seen in these years, he has no feeling for such things——

Another simple pit, nothing more.

Hundreds of people were nothing compared to the direct and indirect deaths they caused in the countries of Central and South America.

"I know a guy who can help you set up a command center."

After listening to Luo Qi's request again, Porcupine looked at the several computer screens in front of him, pondered, and then finalized his choice.

"Reliable? Is it your colleague? Where is it?"

Luo Qi naturally threw out a hundred thousand why.

"No, he's not from the company."

Porcupine thought for a moment, nodded, and was sure that there was nothing wrong with this link.

As the cornerstone of their activities in the Gulf of Mexico, the construction of the control center must not go wrong.

The core part must be handed over to reliable people.
