Chapter 22: The Storm's Spire
Sitting on an alien spaceship and getting lost must be a very special experience, especially since there are several fatal incidents from time to time, in Getter's words, such a tense atmosphere can tire the waist of the best man.
Zhou Xing never thought that a planet could be so big.
It's like looking at the earth from the perspective of space for the first time, and that kind of colossal momentum can never be imitated.
How big is it?
Looking at the planet outside on the spaceship, whether it is a satellite, a planet or a star, it is a sphere, but the horizon in front of me, which fills the field of vision, is actually flat.
It takes a vast sphere to create such an illusion.
"What a big platform!" Zorro sighed.
"Platform, isn't this a planet?" this time it was Zhou Xing's turn to be surprised.
"It's supposed to be a platform, our eyes don't work the same way in terms of details such as light, but if it's a planet, I can easily perceive the curvature of the outer layer. Zorro affirmed.
Zorro pointed to a few areas in the distance and said: "Look at these traces, they are so regular, they should be left by intelligent life, maybe this is an artificial celestial body!"
"Gat, Get?" Zhou Xing shouted Getter twice, and then turned his head in the direction of a dream.
"What's wrong?"
Gat, who is the most out of the box on weekdays, was silent, Zhou Xing thought that he had experienced too much recently, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
"Your eyes should be better than Zorro's, have you found anything?"
Gatt was a little dazed and said dizzily: "This is indeed a man-made platform, and it should be built from the asteroids near here." ”
Zhou Xing's eyes lit up, and he was eager to try: "Let's go down and have a look!"
In the storm zone, there is a danger of extinction at every moment, and since this group of beings can build such a large platform here, it is just the right time to inquire about the way out. Although he thought so, Zhou Xing still had a little more vigilance in his heart, he wanted to tell Gatt to investigate, but looking at the meter data that was beating wildly, he immediately gave up.
Gatt stopped talking, didn't know what he was struggling with, thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, take a closer look!"
"Cheng, go down!"
The spacecraft turned around, and after ten minutes, it landed lightly on the platform.
The trio cautiously left the cabin and went outside.
The first feeling of landing, this platform is not hard, stepping on it is a bit bounced, due to excessive force, Zhou Xing's first foot went down, the second foot almost couldn't touch the ground, and the whole person was bounced down in midair.
Zorro, who was by the hatch, was quick with his eyes, and quickly pulled the outer leg armor of the mecha with one hand, and Zhou Xing also quickly adjusted his posture, so he didn't make a big fool.
"It's so strange, it looks like a rock structure, how can you step on it and feel like QQ candy!" Zhou Xing complained in the communicator, and on the other side, Gater had already gone to explore the way.
The platform was desolate, indifferent, and unchanging, and I didn't know how big it was, and with the help of mechanical power, it took a lot of time to make a big circle around the neighborhood, and it took a few hours, and only a small piece was explored, but nothing was found.
The traces found by Zorro have also been explored, in space, directly exposed to the universe, if there is no special chance, the traces will not change at all, it is difficult to judge when it was left, maybe yesterday, maybe hundreds of millions of years ago, there is no reference value.
Zhou Xing was a little discouraged, did he want to go back outside and break through that unpredictable fate?
"Have you noticed again, this kid is a little weird!" Zorro's voice came from the communicator, but the channel was not a public channel, but a one-on-one, indicating that Zorro's words were not heard by Gate.
Zhou Xing slowed down and carefully considered Get's performance, "To put it this way, since he saw this platform, he was a little absent-minded. ”
As soon as Zorro said this, he also found out!
Zhou Xing looked at Zorro inquiringly, who shook his head slightly, and overlooked Nunu's mouth in front of him.
"Boss, I don't think it's anything special, maybe it's the base that was abandoned before, or the abandoned space station that floated from somewhere, in this kind of place, it should be very common. Getter finally regained his spirits and said boredly.
Before Zhou Xing could speak, he received an image from Zorro, which showed the trajectory that Gate had taken them on just now, which was not a big deal in normal times, but today, Zhou Xing's eyes narrowed suddenly.
"Get, how long have we known each other?" Zhou Xing asked thoughtlessly.
Gate was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "It's been more than two years, boss, why did you remember to ask this?"
"Yes, it's been more than two years, in the past two years, you have been closer than my relatives, and you get along almost day and night, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'm still nesting in the dormitory of Jinghua University now, studying the day's homework. Zhou Xing's tone was a little heavy, and on the empty platform, it sounded cold, "It can be said that you and Zorro are my benefactors, although I know that you are from the Matthian Federation, but I have never had in-depth communication with you, your family, your interests and hobbies, the most talked about is work." ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Xing smirked, but tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes, "I'm really, not a qualified boss!"
Gate suddenly realized something, and he was in a hurry, and said in a hurry: "Boss, I'...... I have no ill will. ”
Zhou Xing stretched out his hand to suppress his words, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Everyone is an adult, it's normal to have a little secret!"
Gate looked at Zhou Xing in amazement, was speechless for a long time, and finally lowered his head slowly.
"Boss, since you want to see it, then watch it!"
Gate's tone was strange, and as soon as his voice fell, the scene behind him quickly changed.
The dark tones in the background began to blur, and purple points of light began to appear, and there was a lot of confusion between the points of light, but the points of light converged to form a stable semi-circular dome that was fastening to this platform.
Gatter's figure turned into a silhouette, jumping off and turning into a mystery, and even the bucket with the paint peeling off flashed with a noble streamer!
Zhou Xing didn't know how big this dome was, and at a glance, it was almost all this purple.
The dome is in a translucent state, and you can faintly see the scene inside, the straight streets, the bustling city, the flashing lights, everything is so magical.
Zhou Xing's first reaction was that he had been here for a long time and had hallucinations, but seeing Zorro's ghostly expression like him, and Gat, who was still posing, Zhou Xing knew that this was not an illusion!
There really is a bustling metropolis in this place!
On the periphery of the dome, those so-called traces of predecessors that had been discovered by Zorro long ago lit up one by one and turned into circles of different colors, and on the aperture, there was a surrounding stream of light.
A piece of text appeared so abruptly on the screen of the helmet!
Welcome to the Storm Spire!
