The speed of Mark's spaceship is not slow, its main engine does not use human technology, but the technology of the miniature civilization in the energy egg, after testing it cannot operate in the large universe, even if it is forcibly used, its speed is not as fast as the traditional chemical thruster, but it can operate in the miniature universe in most civilization eggs, and the speed can reach 97% of the speed of light, exceeding the test standard set by the alliance for human beings, it is a pity that it cannot be used outside. Of course, it will take a long time just to run, although the nebula is not far from Mark, but it is not a waste of time, the main purpose of high-speed propulsion is to pave the way for the next stage of acceleration, this spacecraft has a jump system similar to the stargate, through the acceleration to correct the direction of progress, Mark started the jump, and soon reached the edge of the crimson nebula.

Similar to when he entered the stargate outside, he couldn't see anything outside after jumping into the jump passage, and Mark's vision shrank suddenly, and what he saw was a cosmic scene that had been compressed and collapsed, a bit like what he saw after turning on the fisheye camera, and it was more abstract than that.

After rushing out of the jump passage, Mark's eyes were filled with crimson surging in, he had dealt with crystals a lot before, and almost witnessed the whole process of the expeditionary fleet and the crystals fighting, Sun Tan also told Mark a lot of secrets about crystals through research, Mark was relatively familiar with the characteristics of crystals, but the scene in front of him still made him a little unbelievable. As the results of this failed repair of the reservoir indicate, the structural properties of crystals known to mankind are only the simplest ones, and the evolutionary potential of crystals in nature is far beyond human imitation.

The crimson crystalline flocculent is scattered everywhere in the universe, and the spacecraft has just rushed into the edge of the galaxy and has been entangled by them, these small crystals have no thoughts of their own, they just float around in the universe by numbers, and the purpose of the crystals to release them is also obvious, almost everything that can be attached to this galaxy is covered with bright red crystals, most of them are still in the early stages of growth, most of them are spiny or pinnae, growing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The asteroids and even smaller star fragments that Mark could see in his field of vision were covered with a thick layer of crystals, they frantically absorbed the nutrients in the stars, and grew rapidly in the light of distant stars, some of the crystals on the asteroids were even larger than themselves, Mark also saw several crystals growing on the asteroids connecting them together, crisscrossing the crystalline thorns like flourishing leaves in the dense jungle, connecting with each other, supporting each other, covering the sky and the sun. And this star field is also like a blood-colored forest from another world, full of strange vitality, growing wildly all the time, like the legendary bloodthirsty plant from the demon world, of course, this thing is much more terrifying than the legend of humans, its power is far beyond the imagination of those uncivilized ancients.

Mark quickly pressed the control button on the spacecraft and released a probe mounted on the tail of the spacecraft to guide the surveillance system, but Sun Tan sent a message to him to go a little deeper, this is still the edge of the galaxy, and the probe will be more accurate if it is placed in a more central place.

"Wow, you kid, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk, it's not that you don't know how dangerous this thing is, and if you go any further, I'm afraid something will happen."

"Afraid of what?"

"Are there any weapons on this ship? I didn't seem to have been looking for it for a long time, and if it attacked me, I wouldn't even have room to fight back. ”

"No, how can you have the leisure to pretend to be that kind of thing." Sun Tan said, "This is not your real body, if you die, you will die, you will withdraw directly, and it will not hurt your real body, although it will be a little painful...... Before you die, remember to throw the probe out to activate it, and your mission will be completed. ”

"Oh yes...... I almost forgot about it as I got used to it, and to be honest, it's a lot more real than a somatosensory game. ”

The conversation between the two people basically has an error of about a few minutes, but it does not prevent the two of them from chatting, Mark said this with Sun Tan on the communicator while driving the spaceship, it feels like driving a bus in the desert, talking can also soothe the emotions of driving, otherwise this long space voyage is too cold and lonely.

When Mark approached an asteroid, the crystal thorns on it approached him as if out of curiosity, and the crystals on the ship's body were also slowly growing, and the fine and sharp crystalline pointed feet pierced into the ship's solid shell, slowly growing a little sprout, even if Mark was not attacked by these things, soon the spaceship would be slowly eaten by them as nourishment. Mark suddenly remembered what he had encountered in the solar system, where these crystals were indiscriminately attacking the native species of the galaxy, and their purpose was presumably to take the entire planet's matter for themselves, if it was not the solar system, but a lifeless galaxy...... It won't take long for it to evolve like this. Mark continues to go deeper into it under the command of Sun Tan, the strange thing is that the reaction of the crystals has been very gentle, and there has been no aggressive behavior towards the spaceship, I don't know if it is because there are no living creatures in the spaceship, these crystals seem to use special methods to determine whether they are living creatures, Mark is now using a miniature operation double to operate, in their eyes there is no threat, as long as it is not a living thing...... They will not compete with them for the resources to survive.

When Mark approached the first crystalline parasitic planet, he saw a huge pattern formed on the surface of the planet, which was pieced together by countless crystalline peaks tens of thousands of meters high, they almost covered the surface of the planet, they continued to climb upward, competing for precious space and sunlight, it is hard to imagine that any tiny pattern seen from this height is actually larger than the largest mountain range on the earth, and the size of this planet is about fifty times larger than the earth according to the observation device on the spacecraft. The mass is also incomparable to the earth, in such a short period of time...... It was actually eroded like this by the crystal, if the crystal nucleus on the Fire Moon went out of control...... The consequences are only worse.
