Under Luo Yi's command, the "Zhiyuan" was at full speed and rushed wildly towards that bright light. Like a beast that has been hungry for days, rushing to the most palatable prey!

Although it seems to be close to the point of light, it is always trying to resist and make people itch, and people find that it is moving rapidly in a certain direction, as if it is trying to escape the pursuit of the "beast" of "Zhiyuan". The chase between the two sides lasted for half a month, making the "big iron beast" in the void environment a little tired; In the end, the "Zhiyuan" slowly stopped at the source of the bright light, as if the light was finally exhausted, so it gave up fleeing and was quietly suspended in the darkness of nothingness.

This is a very peculiar existence, the light in front of me...... This light is like a glowing transparent planet! It is said to be a planet only because it is a round celestial body, and if we had to describe it as an object, it would look more like a huge glowing "blister". Everyone is looking at this "blister" with an obsessive expression at this moment, because this "prey" in front of them is exactly what they desire the most.

The size of the "blister" is simply insignificant compared to a cosmic-level celestial body, because it can only allow a dozen starships the size of the "Zhiyuan" to pass through at the same time. A film-like barrier of unknown light curtains envelops the "blister" and flows slowly in waves. What's even more amazing is that the "blister" wrapped in this light curtain is an unknown world, this world has blue sky and white clouds, mountains and flowing water; The crew seemed to hear the rumbling sound of the rushing stream ringing in their ears. People feel like it's looking at the world with a lens.

If you look closely, on the other side of the "lens", there are many birds and beasts that appear and disappear from time to time, this is a world full of life! Not to mention the dense vegetation, the singing of birds and flowers, the world in front of us is like a fairyland, it is certain that it is not the earth we know, because such a beautiful scenery has long been extinct on the current earth.

In the dark universe for many years, seeing the blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, it seems to be in paradise makes people feel very comfortable, but all this seems too incredible, and what you see in front of you is too unreal; After all, the "blister" or "lens" in front of me feels like a mirage, which can be seen but not touched; If it is real, then it is absolutely beyond all current human knowledge.

After encountering an unbelievable cosmic storm, it is incredible, and after sailing for such a long time, without seeing any celestial matter, and now seeing everything in front of you as if it had opened a back door to heaven.

"It's incredible, could it be an illusion!?" At this time, there is a sense of gain and loss in people's hearts.

After a long time, Luo Yi recovered from his surprise and left the command module to convene all the scholars in the field of science to discuss what he saw and discuss the next decision.

"Does anyone know what's in front of you?"

The crowd began to talk about it, and for a while there was no positive answer, and the cosmologist said that it was a miracle, and it was definitely a wormhole to the unknown! Astrophysicists say that this is a myth because its trajectory is irregular and capricious; But no one has denied its authenticity.

"Chen Xiaoyun, check its structural data." Luo Yi said to Chen Xiaoyun, who was operating the computer next to him.

"Yes, I'll scan and analyze it right away." Chen Xiaoyun stared at the instrument screen and replied, and soon a scanned image of the "blister" model appeared in front of everyone in the conference room, and the thirst for knowledge fascinated everyone.

"Captain, the light curtain in front of you is extremely unstable in the data, it may collapse and disappear at any time, and it is also impossible to detect the data components, our database, there are no such elements, but through the detection of its structural density, as well as the feedback of simulated crossing data, our starship passes through its interior, and there is no threat to the structure of the walled cabin." Chen Xiaoyun said after looking at a series of data analysis feedback.

Luo Yi chuckled helplessly: "In other words, we still can't really define its existence, we can only try our luck?" Chen Xiaoyun smiled awkwardly and did not answer.

Luo Yi spoke again: "Judging from the current situation, we can assume that this object in front of us is a wormhole, and it has no threat. We should try to cross over, maybe it's really a link to another world, and we don't seem to have any other choice, I don't think anyone wants to go back into the darkness and continue to look for other exits. After hearing this, everyone nodded yes.

"It seems that you can only take a risk once, take a gamble, and pray that it is not just a virtual scene." Thinking that if he had to sail alone in this void and darkness again, Luo Yi shook his head and didn't dare to think about it anymore, no one had the courage to think about it, and everyone present unanimously agreed.

After getting the approval of all the experts, Luo decisively stood up and said to everyone present: "I can't take all the starship crew members on the risk at once, now I will draw up a list of advance teams, the pilot - Kishimoto Shinya." Field medics: Liu Ruonan, intelligence officer: Chen Xiaoyun, combat team members: Zhang Haotian, Wu Yu, Wu Yan, Lin Shuqin, Wang Hai and I Luo Yi. Responsible for finding out the situation ahead, and then let the "Zhiyuan" pass after the safety is confirmed. Then the others stood by in place, and after I left, the "Zhiyuan" was commanded by Deputy Captain Chen Cheng. ”

"Captain, the situation ahead is unknown, you are the commander, in case of any accidents, the whole ship can't be leaderless, or let me explore the way?" Chen Cheng pleaded.

"Vice Captain Chen, you don't have any experience in individual combat in the wilderness, so it's more risky for you to go. Don't worry, the people I assigned have carried out many missions with me, and there is no problem with tacit understanding, there is only one boatload of us left in all mankind, and we can better survive by learning from each other's strengths, and besides, isn't there still you on the "Zhiyuan"? You are one of the main initiators of this voyage, and I am relieved to have you there. ”

Chen Cheng wanted to insist on asking for his life again, but was interrupted by Luo Yi: "Okay, time is pressing, if it is late, it will change, order the advance team to sort out the equipment, and gather at the No. 1 launch pad in 30 minutes!" The others stood by and performed their duties to guard the Zhiyuan! After speaking, he walked out of the conference room first.

After everyone received the order, they began to get busy, Luo Yijing returned to the captain's lounge to pack up, and just wanted to go out after bringing some daily necessities, he glanced at the Moyun Sword on the wall, thought for a while, and took it down.

Then he came to the arsenal and wore an interstellar combat mecha, this set of combat mecha is the main armament specially designed by the Joint ** Secret Scientific Research Department for this operation, which can greatly enhance the combat effectiveness and defense of individual soldiers, and ordinary people can also become a special soldier who is like a rabbit; This is a fully encircled individual combat mecha with mechanical auxiliary muscle power, and the soles and backs are equipped with thrusters, which can be used for short jumps and flights. It can also continue to act for 3 hours without oxygen, and the whole mecha is colored red and white, in terms of coloring, it is not very suitable for secret lurking, but this functional indicator is not in the original mission plan of the voyage.

Luo Yi took over the phase-aiming laser pulse assault rifle from the military officer, hung a semi-automatic live-fire pistol on the holster on his leg, tied the beam-cutting dagger to his waist, and inserted the Moyun Sword in a special scabbard on his back. After the assembly was completed, Luo Yi came to the No. 1 launch capsule and saw that the advance team had already been dressed and was standing by in line.

Advance team: Chen Xiaoyun, female, 25 years old, 1.60 meters tall. Clear eyebrows, a pair of gold-wire glasses hanging on a small nose, a small cherry mouth, combing a capable ponytail at this time, looking very well-behaved and lovely, young, but the "Zhiyuan" chief intelligence officer, is also a genius scientist, proficient in computer operation, good at various intelligence data analysis.

Luo Yi inspected the team back and forth and nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, Deputy Captain Chen Cheng gave a military salute to Luo Yi and said, "Captain be careful all the way, return smoothly, and please help me take care of my family Xiaoyun." ”

Luo Yi glanced at Chen Xiaoyun and knew that it was his only daughter, patted him on the shoulder after returning the salute and said, "Don't worry, Lao Chen, I will." Zhiyuan is yours! Then he turned around and lined up with everyone, and said, "Advance team, go!" ”

After that, he first boarded the "Explorer" small spaceship and prepared to set off. The team members listened to the order to line in, and after everyone sat down, they connected the back components of the mecha into the seat back, checked that all the equipment was normal, and slowly closed the door of the spaceship under the salute of others.

The pilot, Kishi Moto, also operated the "Explorer", and quickly broke away from the mothership and slowly headed towards the light curtain "blister". After a slight pause as they approached the light curtain, everyone was praying in their hearts at this moment that this was a completely uncertain action, and finally the "Explorer" slowly drove in.

"Report mothership, it's passing through the light curtain, everything is normal." Shinya Kishimoto reported to the mothership.

"Explorer, please keep trying to cross!" Mothership Chen Cheng replied to the order.

The "Explorer" gradually disappeared behind the light curtain under the gaze of the mothership, and everyone raised their hearts to their throats. When the entire small spaceship entered the light curtain, the advance team immediately clearly felt that the spacecraft was moving in a spiral shape, and it was constantly accelerating rapidly, and the two of the main and co-pilot groups were even more horrified to find that the spacecraft had completely lost active control at this moment and was passively doing inertial centripetal motion! They immediately reported the situation to the mothership, but there was no signal feedback, and everyone was terrified and had to resign themselves to fate......

"Explorer, Explorer, please answer when you hear that...... Report to Vice Captain Chen, who has lost contact with the Explorer! Luo Wei said anxiously.

"What! Keep in touch! ”

"Yes! Explorer, Explorer, please answer ...... heard" "There was no response."

"BFI, is it on the radar?" The Intelligence team member shook his head.

Chen Cheng fell into silence, lost his mind in an instant, and was confused for a while.

"Report to Deputy Captain Chen, the light curtain in front of you...... Disappeared ......"

"What !?" Chen Cheng hurriedly looked ahead in horror, only to see that the light that had brought hope to everyone had disappeared without a trace at this moment, and they were once again plunged into endless darkness.

Chen Cheng stared at the nothingness in front of him, feeling a deep despair about the future of humanity.

Somewhere in the Unknown......

"Report to the captain, our engines are out of power! Please instruct! I saw a sudden "bang" at an altitude of 10,000 meters in the unknown world, and a small spaceship appeared out of thin air and began to dive down.

"Zhiyuan, this is the Explorer, our engine has lost power, and we are in free fall, please answer when you hear it! Captain, we have also lost contact with the Zhiyuan! ”

Everyone was in a panic when they heard this, the explorer was accelerating downward under the influence of gravity, and there was a large mountain in front of them, and they were rushing towards it. If it collided directly like this, it would have to be broken to pieces, and when he was about to approach the mountain, he only heard Luo Yi shouting: "Liu Ruonan, fire at the impact point!" Keep firing! ”

When Liu Ruonan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, heard this, he immediately pulled the fire trigger in his hand and launched intensive shooting towards the impact point. Under the fire, the mountain was quickly knocked out of a large hole and extended downward. In the next second, the explorer roared through the hole, and rushed towards the depths of the mountain under the violent bumps, a strong sense of weightlessness and the extremely turbulent hull made everyone completely lose control over their bodies, only to feel dizzy in their brains, and their stomachs were turned upside down.

Soon after, after a loud bang, the Explorer finally broke through a cavern, slammed into a pool of water in the cavern, and after a series of collapses, everything was quiet again. The advance team only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and they couldn't slow down for a long time; Fortunately, the reaction force of the shot plus the friction and deceleration of the rock mass plus the fact that everyone was wearing combat mechas, otherwise the fate of mankind would have come to an end with this impact just now.

It took a long time for Luo Yi to recover from the impact reaction, and he looked around, and it was pitch black all around. The impact left the ship badly damaged, losing almost all of its primary functions, except for sporadic malfunctioning sparks and the faint glow of the emergency lights, making it impossible to see the surroundings.

"Are you alright? Report casualties. Luo Yi asked out loud.

"Report to the captain, Zhang Haotian is fine."

"Wu Yu, Wu Yan is fine."

"Lin Shuqin is fine."

"Wang Hai is all right."

"Chen Xiaoyun is all right."

All the team members reported.

"Kishimoto Shinya, Liu Ruonan, report the situation!" I didn't hear the answer of the two people in the cab, and Luo Yi asked again.

There was still no echo, Luo Yi had a bad feeling in his heart, and hurriedly unconnected the combat mecha from the seat, and turned on the tactical spotlight on the mecha's chest and stepped forward to check the situation.

Seeing that the two of them showed no signs of movement, they leaned back on the seat. Luo Yi first stretched out his hand to pull Anben, and saw that his hands were lowered, and there was no physical reaction in the initial observation. Hurriedly turned on the life detector on his combat mecha, and saw that the instrument showed that the shore had lost all vital signs, Luo Yi hugged his head and scolded in a dull voice deep in his throat, and his heart was even more sad, and he couldn't help himself for a while; After taking a deep breath, he carefully examined the cause of his death, and found that the spacecraft had just hit a water turbulent, the stone was very hard and sharp, and it directly pierced the hull of the ship and pierced Kishimoto's abdomen, killing him instantly.

At this time, Chen Xiaoyun's voice was heard, "Captain, Ruonan is fine, but her head was concussed and she fell unconscious." ”

Luo Yi felt a little comforted after hearing this, so he sighed and said, "Comrade Kishimoto has also sacrificed. ”

Hearing the news, grief instantly spread inside the ruined spaceship. Everyone couldn't believe it for a while, and they couldn't accept the cruel fact of losing their comrades.

Luo Yi sighed again and said: "Come on, big man, come over and take the handle to carry Kishimoto's body down, the mouse will check the equipment, bring everything that can be used, Xiaoyun will probe the surrounding environment, Lin Shuqin, you come and help Ruonan, Shuangwu brothers will be on guard and protect, we will get off the boat." ”

"Yes, Captain!" Everyone gathered up and responded softly.

"Report to the captain, the air composition inspection report shows that the air nitrogen content here accounts for about 70%, the oxygen content accounts for about 29%, and some rare gases account for about 1%, which is not harmful to the human body and can breathe normally." Chen Xiaoyun reported after testing the air composition.

"Okay."

After speaking, Luo Yi slapped off the mecha mask, took a deep breath of fresh air, and then exhaled a mouthful of turbid air from his chest and abdomen. It seems that he wants to spit out all the depression in his heart.

After so many years of living and dying together and going through so many hardships, it was an extremely fortunate thing for them to be able to set foot on the land again, but at this moment, only sadness surrounds everyone's hearts. After the fall of the earth and the loss of their loved ones, the crew had long regarded each other as their closest relatives, and now they have lost their loved ones again, and their hearts are twisted together, are they not sad?

After they carried Kishimoto's body off the spaceship, they couldn't take his body away under the current conditions, so they had to bury it on the spot......

At this time, Liu Ruonan had already woken up, and she was usually the best with Kishi Motozhen, but when she first heard the bad news, she immediately fainted again. When I woke up again, I cried bitterly.

At the funeral, they formed a circle around Kishimoto's grave, and Liu Ruonan made a eulogy, telling the glorious deeds of Comrade Kishimoto Shinya's life, and wishing the dead rest in peace and the living safe. In the end, they covered the military flag of the Longyan Federation on the grave of Kishimoto Shinya, and saluted and bid farewell to Comrade Kishimoto under Luo Yi's instructions.

Just as the advance team of the Explorer was still immersed in the grief of losing their comrades and loved ones, a loud and piercing scream resounded throughout the cave......
