Chapter 9: Crossing the Line
As mentioned in the previous chapter, this is a mechanical-style room.
But what exactly is this mechanical style?
Hao Shen can only use some relatively understandable and specific metaphors to describe it: everyone should have seen some space science fiction movies, and some rough style spaceship corridors are almost this style. If you are more specific, it is the Transformers Four Mile released a few years ago, and the Transformers' spaceship is in this style.
In short, the whole room was full of gray-black and occasional silver gleaming metal steel plates, some small, like tiles, and some very large, three or four meters high. The floors, the walls, and everything that catches the eye are made of these jagged metalwork. At this time, Hao Shen noticed that this room was actually surprisingly large, and the height of the light must be at least six or seven meters, if it was not dark and dark, it would be like a large auditorium.
Hao Shen had never been to such a place, and he had never even seen it.
And with Hao Shen's awakening, the ghost crying wolf howl that had been echoing in his ears was finally clear:
“…… Feed? Feed? Hao Shen? Damn, thank goodness you're finally awake, I've been calling you for a few minutes. You're fine, you sleep like a dead pig. Are you worthy of the system? ”
Hao Shen: "...... You were the one who sang the big drama just now? ”
System: "...... Shall I sing you with a good face? ”
"Good, good!" Hao Shen sat up, rubbed his brows, and tried to sober up, "Where the hell is this?" ”
"How does the system know?" The system's voice snorted, "But it's obviously not Earth, and if the functions that this system has installed on itself are not wrong, it may not even be our original universe!" ”
Hao Shen was stunned: "Huh? ”
The voice of the system explained: "After we came here, I analyzed the information of nearby materials, in addition to basic elements such as iron, carbon and silicon, there are some substances that do not exist on the earth, so I guess this may not be the earth. But just in case, I added a radiation spectrum analysis gadget to myself to check the radiation background of this universe, hehe, guess what? This is not the universe we stayed in before, Hao Shen, you can hear clearly, we have crossed over! ”
Through? Hao Shen rubbed his brows in distress, "Wait a minute, you let me take care of it first....."
Speaking of brushing, there is actually nothing to brush. He had long been prepared for anything strange that happened or could happen to him, but at this time, he was still a little confused: "Crossing? The kind from the novel? No....... Why don't I feel anything? ”
"I didn't either, without any warning, and I was confused. When I was asleep, I suddenly felt that all kinds of constants around me began to dance like a disorder, and when I opened my eyes, I found that we were not at home. Doesn't it scare me? What's going on over there? Did you have some kind of dream that brought us to such a sudden time? The voice of the system also wondered.
"I didn't dream, I slept soundly...... I don't even know what's going on. Hao Shen stretched out his hand and suddenly remembered something, "Where are you?" How come your appearances from this chapter onwards are all voices? ”
"Did you just find out?" The system snorted, and then said something that shocked Hao Shen: "I'm with Xiaomei, I have to protect her." ”
"What?! Xiaomei is here too!? Hao Shen was really shocked.
Crossing is not so easy to wear, it is not like in fiction and television, you can go to the toilet and open the door - the constants between universes are different, and even if some universes are very similar to each other, they can never be exactly the same. In this grand setting, different universes are like different systems. And the creation of one universe appears in another universe without protection, which is equivalent to putting the EXE file written in C language under the Android system and forcing it to run, and there are only two results - either the program crashes or the system crashes.
Considering the strong self-discipline of the universe, it is clear that it is not the universe itself that will collapse.
In this world, except for a transcendent existence like Hao Shen, it is very difficult to cross it - it requires an extremely small possibility and the adaptation of matter itself to the cosmic environment, otherwise it can only be a dead end. Of course, what is needed is another extremely complicated formula, you can first calculate the escape speed of the 11-dimensional universe!
Hao Shen's heart jumped for a while before he sighed.
Is this the legendary Murphy's Law?
What are you really afraid of?
However, thanks to the system, with him, Hao Xiaomei's safety does not have to worry.
"It's hard to have you, otherwise it's over." Hao Shen breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's a must, the system knew that sooner or later there would be something uncontrollable, so it simply sneaked to Xiaomei's side at night, and fortunately, wahahaha, I have to praise the wisdom of the system." The system's triumphant voice was a little underwhelming.
Hao Shen really wanted to beat people: "...... Why did you touch my sister's room in the middle of the night and wanted to the eggs? ”
“…… The special Xiaomei is also my sister, right? Don't forget that this system is your backup! ”
Hao Shen's head was pounding, but he was helpless, because the system was right. "I'll go back and settle accounts with you...... How's Xiaomei now? Where are you located? ”
"Hmph, you thought dirty first, this book is for all ages!" The system snorted, "Xiaomei hasn't woken up yet, I just finished processing the information composition for her to be compatible with this universe, and I don't know how to explain it to her when she wakes up." Besides, don't even think about coming to us, we're a bit far away from the landing point this time, and the timing coefficient is not right. According to the records of this system: your time difference between us is about four seconds, which causes us to fall more than 300 kilometers apart. ”
"Then you wait, I'll teleport over!" Hao Shen hurriedly said.
"No, you don't!" The system hurriedly interrupted. "There is a lack of computational data on our way of traversing, and the distance between us is too close now, and I am afraid that rash traversal will disturb the spatial structure of this vicinity. Hao Shen, don't you think our crossing is a bit strange this time? If this crossing is not caused by the active consciousness of you and me, then it is very likely that what pushed us to this universe is a kind of attraction, it may be a kind of calling...... Either way, we'd better find out it first and know the cause and effect. So we can't use our abilities recklessly...... Of course this is my suggestion, if you feel troublesome, you can come over now, I can give you the coordinates. ”
Hao Shen was silent for a moment, saying that if it wasn't for the system to bring this up, he really hadn't thought about it so much.
For Hao Shen and the system, crossing is not difficult, but the gratuitous crossing is a bit incomprehensible. Hao Shen has obtained information and knowledge, and he knows the essence of crossing: what is crossing? It's easy to understand, it's nothing more than going from one universe to another. But what really matters is this, the crossing requires basic conditions: a primordial universe as the base point, a target universe as the end point, and from the base point to the end point is the target direction. These three points are the three elements of crossing: the cardinal point, the direction, and the end point. Of course, this crossing model with three elements is still dead at this time, and if you really want to complete a crossing, you still need a driving force.
If you think about it carefully, Hao Shen's crossing has the basic point elements, and the driving force is Hao Shen itself, but there is a lack of a direction that points to the key elements - this direction does not refer to a specific direction, but the process from the base point to the end point, which contains many elements such as crossing methods, crossing willingness, etc. - Hao Shen has no will and idea of crossing at all.
Unless there's really something calling out to you in this world...... Or call upon the power of information within yourself!
It's only because I've just gained this power that I'm hard to perceive and unconsciously respond to this universe!
“…… You're right, since you're here, let's take a closer look. Protect Xiaomei, and if she wakes up, ...... First explain the basic situation to her, in terms of details...... We'll talk about it when we meet. ”
The system was silent for a moment, then responded: "Roger." Don't worry, I'm absolutely safe with me. Be careful yourself, I feel like this place is ...... Something is wrong. ”
