Connor didn't know where he was, he just vaguely felt like he was back at the beginning of his life, in the belly of a certain mother.

He was wrapped in something that I didn't know if it was liquid or solid, it was soft and elastic, but what was even more amazing was that he didn't feel the slightest breathlessness because of the things that wrapped around him.

Over the course of an unknown amount of time, a pull appeared, which dragged him through a long tunnel, and finally, along with substances that were not just liquids or solids, pushed out of the tunnel.

His skin felt the air, the familiar wind and currents brushed through his skin, his lungs filled with air again, and Connor the Lokren opened his eyes in a daze, his consciousness tending to wake up from the haze.

When he came to his senses, he found himself in a strange place, and above his head was a fleshy ceiling with many roots, intestines, and some light sources hanging from it, and he couldn't help but feel a strong sense of gagging at the sight.

Below him was a transparent entity, with good light transmission, and he could see that below him was the vast universe of stars, and the brilliant galaxy formed an inexplicable contrast with the flesh and blood above.

After examining himself and making sure that he was not missing arms, legs, or organs, or any discomfort other than being wrapped in some kind of colloidal mucus, Connor the Lokon let out a long sigh of relief.

"You're awake."

Hearing this, Luo Ren, who was patronizing to confirm his condition, noticed that there were several organisms not far from him that he had never seen before.

"Where is this? Who are you? ”

"We are the individuals of amoeba, and this is your hometown."

Connor had never met the Collectors, and he didn't know what form the Collectors' skills were showing, and his influence on the Collectors was limited to the cartoon character of the Rocker on the pure white wall.

Upon hearing the gatherer's answer, Connor was visibly stunned, and he looked around for no apparent reason, indicating that he could not understand.

"What did you say?"

How could he not know his hometown? It was a planet, not a meaty ceiling above its head and a vast array of stars under its feet, it was an Earth-like planet, with an atmosphere suitable for living organisms to block the high-energy radiation of stars, a rich and thick land, and a complex ecosystem of thriving species.

The gatherer stretched out one of his tentacles and pointed to a meteorite in the dim universe below that you couldn't notice at all if you didn't look closely, it was a large meteorite with a diameter of more than ten kilometers, but it was too far away to look so small.

"See those meteorites? That's your hometown, and a huge amount of energy is released in one go, blasting the entire planet into the asteroid belt that orbits the stars in the current circle. ”

In order to make it easier for Connor to intuitively understand, the light from the luminous objects on the fleshy ceiling is staggered to form a very sci-fi three-dimensional three-dimensional galaxy projection, and on the sixth orbit of the star system, a large red dot is marked, and the red dot is indicated in the Lörren script.

Connor could read that the red dot represented their position at the moment, and combined with a lot of information, after a few seconds of brain shutdown due to the shocking facts, the Luo people, who had traveled hundreds of millions of miles back to their home star system, chose not to believe it.

"You lied to me!"

"We didn't lie to you, there was no need for that."

The gatherer ruthlessly dragged Connor back who was trying to escape from the facts, either intentionally or unintentionally, after all, there is no such concept of escapism and self-paralysis in the social system of the gatherer.

"No, it can't be! I've only been away for eleven Fei Lun."

"It's eleven Ferra for you, but don't forget, you're next to a black hole."

Reminded by the collectors, Connor, who had a certain degree of astronomical knowledge, immediately reacted.

"Time and space scale?!"

"Yes, space and time are one, space is distorted and time will be distorted, in normal space-time that is not affected by the gravitational pull of black holes, more than 70,000 years have actually passed, converted into Fei Wheel units, that is, more than 35,000 Fei Wheels, and you have been away from this star system for a long time."

Time around the black hole slows down, and gravity distorts space-time, so when the collectors first landed, they were surprised to find that there was no fine sand on the planet, because the black hole companion they landed on was still a fairly young star, although the black hole companion formed earlier than the planets in many star systems, but it passed very slowly, and the fine sand did not have time to form under the Mach tsunami.

It is precisely because the time scales are different, so when the collectors first wanted to rely on the location of the black hole before the eleventh Fei Wheel time, the search for the coordinates of the home star of the Luo civilization failed, and the fundamental reason was that the eleven Fei Wheel that Connor spent on the black hole companion star was 70,000 years of normal space-time in the outside world.

"I, I don't believe it! Unless you come up with absolutely unfalsifiable evidence, it's a hoax! ”

"Yes, it's a scam, you just take me to some star system, and tell me that my hometown is destroyed, it must be like this."

The gatherers watched Connor's dead face in silence, waiting for him to vent hysterically for a moment before answering.

"Let's not talk about why we're doing this, if you want proof, you can, but we want you to be prepared."

The gatherers were very straightforward, after all, their social model was like this, and if they wanted evidence, then give him evidence, and they didn't care about the frozen Connor, and ordered loudly.

"Change course and head to the second track."

The cosmic organism that carried the Gatherer and Connor rotated to maintain artificial gravity while changing the direction of the creature's propulsion and heading towards the star.

"The evidence is on this planet, put on this first, this is made according to the spacesuit left over from your civilization, so that you can not be harmed by the extreme environment of space."

Upon reaching the dwarf planet in the second orbit, the Collectors tossed Connor a suit, a replica of their spacesuit modeled after the dried corpses of the Los Angeles, so that Connor could move in space.

Then, a fleshy cavity hung from the fleshy ceiling, looking like the blood basin of some kind of creature, and Connor's scalp tingled.

In a sense, he can't be said to be wrong in this understanding.
