Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Voyage

Plans for deep space voyages have already been determined, all that remains is preparation.

During this period, sustainability has been very entangled.

"Will, I have some questions for you."

"What's the matter?"

"Why did you want me to stay?"

“…… You're more reliable, and I feel apprehensive about handing it over to other gatherers. ”

"The reason why I let you stay is because I believe in you, although the deep space voyage has my presence to ensure basic safety, but once you get lost, it will be very troublesome, and if you want to come back, you have to settle on a new planet again, and then recalculate a new orbit."

Persistence sounds like it doesn't understand, it has only been a few days and nights since it came into contact with the concept of the universe, let alone understand the difficulty of navigating the universe.

Huogu doesn't force it, as long as Forever can do the tasks assigned to it responsibly, then it doesn't need to worry.

"But, will, why do they do that?"

Perpetual refers to the strange creatures that roam awkwardly in the fugitive layer on the outside of the transparent body, which were originally gatherers, but are now horgutized life structures, and have become space creatures that can survive in the universe for a short time.

The new form of Hoguguan is called 'Prospector', and its main job is to collect samples from meteorites.

It resembles an octopus in appearance, has twice as many tentacles as gatherers, and has a thin titanium alloy scale armor on its head, mainly to defend against the danger caused by inertia in a weightless state.

It has four eyes, one on the top of the head, and is distributed in a triangular circle to ensure an all-round vision without dead ends, so as not to cause an accident that threatens life and safety because of a small meteorite flying behind him.

This kind of thing often happens in science fiction movies, and of course Hogu should be wary of it.

The rounded head covered with titanium scale armor has small holes on the sides and top, which are miniature chemical vents that can be used to propulsion, steering, braking and other actions in space.

"You say they......"

"Of course, it's to get them used to the weightless environment, you haven't even experienced flying, let alone operating in the weightless environment of the universe, but there are a lot of sharp stones at the destination, and there are small stones flying everywhere, which are not comparable to you with small stone knives."

"So, what's going on with them?"

Perpetual is looking at another creature that is deeply rooted in the top of the monostructure like a plant.

The exterior of this creature resembles an upside-down lid of a pot, the exterior is plain and fleshy, but the interior is a highly reflective surface that appears to be metal, and the mirror-like reflective surface is integrated.

In fact, Hogu directly followed the design structure of human radar, which is not only lightweight, but also guaranteed to accept a wider range of radios, which Hogu used to detect interplanetary distances.

These creatures were also originally gatherers, and were specialized into this form after Huo Gu changed their gene expression, and were named 'Pulse Beasts' by Huo Gu.

At this time, they are twisting the joints that connect the lid to the pot, twisting the direction of the mirror inside the lid in all directions, which is also based on the instructions that Hogu asks to practice.

"Perpetual, they are your subordinates, and they need you to command."

"You have to command them to send radio signals to us, and you also have to receive the radio signals sent to you from our side, and the two sides can exchange information to ensure the accuracy of the route."

"Don't think that commanding on the surface is useless, the safety of our deep space voyage this time can be said to be half of the pressure on you, you can take more snacks, don't live up to our trust."

The little bit of caution that is sustainable can't be filled with Huo Gu at all, not to mention that it is still connected to the life field channel, and the mood fluctuations can be directly felt.

"But, will, is there enough time? Could it be that we missed the closest distance to our destination before the training was completed? ”

"No, I've already roughly calculated, there are still nearly three hundred days and nights to go, and the distance between the two planets is back to the minimum."

At some distance from them, rhizomes extending up the slope from the surface are feeding a sarcoma in a weightless environment......

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of days and nights passed.

At this time, the sarcoma is long gone, and it is replaced by a long fusiform, like an object in the shape of a melon seed shell, and the design of the bevel can effectively disperse the impact force of the frontal object, and only the shape change will not increase the overall weight.

Of course, if it is an object attacked by an inclined plane, this inclined plane design cannot play a role in dispersing the impact force, but this possibility is small, after all, it is traveling at high speed, or in such a vast space as the universe, unless it is a large area of meteorite rain or something.

It is the protagonist of this deep space voyage - a large cosmic creature.

It is a real cosmic creature that can independently complete its own internal cycle in the cosmic environment, without relying on the ecosystem on the surface of the planet.

When a star's light hits the carapace on its surface, ions are produced, which are delivered into the body via synapses to participate in chemical reactions.

Similar to how a honeycomb uses ions to reduce calcium oxide, this cosmic creature is doing the same.

Unfortunately, however, the propulsion method is still not fundamentally solved, and the chemical propulsion using hydrogen and oxygen combustion is still used, which means that the movement in the space environment will be greatly limited.

When the blue tail flame of hydrogen and oxygen fuel lit up, under the watchful eyes of the creatures that had been left on the ground, the cosmic creatures carrying hundreds of explorers began their voyage.

From Hogu's point of view, it seems that it is not that they are going far away, but that the planet is moving away from them, and soon, the behemoth planet is shrinking to the size of a football.

"Will, that's where we've always lived?"

The visual information of the eyes of cosmic creatures was designed by Hogu to be shared, so that fellow explorers could also see the scenery along the way, although it was not a good scenery.

"Yes, you've been living on the same ball before."

"If you can't accept it, I can give you an idea of the role of gravity on a larger macroscopic scale, and the ultimate tolerance of atomic bonds......

Just as Hogu was about to make a tirade, another individual suddenly asked.

"Is it a ball in other places?"

"Uh...... Of course. ”

"In other words, we can also live on other balls in the future, right?"

The thought of excitement and anticipation of the unknown immediately aroused the interest of almost all individuals, but Huo Gu had a slight sense of melancholy.

Looking at Twilight, which was already the size of a glass bead, Huo Gu replied.

“…… Trust me, when you leave there, you'll miss it immensely. ”
