Chapter 2 In the Distress Passage

"I don't know if it's going to work, but let's give it a try?" Atlas muttered to herself, and then she casually gave the order, "Start the main engine." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Refusal to execute." In response to her, the Voyager ruthlessly said, "The main engine is badly damaged, and if it is started rashly, it will cause secondary damage." ”

"Uh-" Atlas was a little surprised by this answer, and after a moment's pause, she continued, "Just start it a little, it doesn't need much thrust, and you can make the ship move forward slowly." Afraid that the Voyager would refuse again, the little girl hurriedly added, "Didn't you also say before that you wanted to get out of here as soon as possible?" How are we going to get out of here without starting the engine. ”

Fortunately, this time the Voyager did not refuse, but directly handed back part of the control of the main engine to Atlas.

After a while, faint blue flames erupted again from the main engine vents that had been forcibly closed and the shells were charred out. Atlas was cautious at first, starting with a single percent thrust of the engine.

But what struck her as strange was that she had slowly increased her thrust to five percent from one percent thrust, but nothing had changed around the Voyager, and it hadn't left the space as she had hoped. Just as the little girl wanted to increase the thrust of the engine again, the Voyager stopped her:

"Warning, continue to increase thrust leads to unpredictable results."

The Voyager's alerts and the engine's own alerts forced Atlas to stop, but it was enough for her to try so far. She thought as she turned off her engine, "It's strange, how could the spacecraft not fly out of this space like the previous probes and debris?" And while the engines were running, the instrumentation did not detect any signs of progress in the spacecraft itself. It's kind of similar to when you're in space. ”

As she spoke, the little girl controlled the peripheral probe to extend the robotic arm out of the surrounding space, and after a few times, she came up with a new idea.

She tied a rope to one of the probes and ordered it to fly outward. When its signal was completely gone, she tried to retract the rope, and as she recovered, the instrument detected a considerable pull from the other end of the rope.

It didn't take long for the probe that flew out to reappear from the walls of space. The moment it appeared, the Voyager regained contact with it.

"In other words, it wasn't the outside space that destroyed the probe, it just blocked the contact signal?" Atlas said thoughtfully, "It's not the same as in hyperspace. It's such a strange place, how can you get out of here and go back to the normal universe? Speaking of which, she sighed, "If only the captain's brother were still awake, at least I could discuss it with them." ”

Long after entering this strange space, the Voyager had already dispatched medical robots to various parts of the ship to rescue the injured crew. The results of the examination showed that most of the crew members who had become unconscious due to acceleration did not require any treatment, except for those who were actually injured, and only had to wait for them to wake up naturally. So Atlas was not worried about Zhou Xin's current situation, but focused all his attention on how to get out of trouble.

"It seems that it is not possible to understand the space outside in detail." The little girl said helplessly. Soon, she went on to send some probes around. This time, of course, she attached a rope to all the detectors to prevent them from getting lost.

However, after nearly an hour of investigation, the probe did not make any valuable discoveries. No matter how you check it, the space surrounding the Voyager is a normal space that is no different from the ordinary universe, but once it flies out of this space, all the instruments on the probe seem to fail at the same time in an instant, and there are no normal readings, not even the most basic temperature, brightness, etc. However, if the detector is pulled back in, all the instruments are back to normal at the same time. This indicates that it is not that there is a problem with the instrument, but that the space outside does not have normal measurable properties, which makes Atlas very strange.

"Ahhh Dozens of times in a row, but all of them were the same result, Atlas couldn't help but start to get a little impatient, "What kind of place is this, how do I get out of here?" ”

"There is not enough information to answer." The Voyager answered.

"They didn't ask you." Atlas regained her composure, and she sorted out the current situation, "It seems that either we can only wait for the captain's brother and them to wake up before finding a way, or we can only see if the space here will be like hyperspace and we'll be ostracized after arriving at the place." As soon as she finished speaking, she denied her thoughts, "No, no, if you wait, you don't know what the surrounding space will become, and what if you return to the violent state when you first came in." ”

However, what happened next was completely unexpected.

Without warning, the space around the spacecraft simultaneously began to shrink rapidly inward. In less than half an hour, the space on the periphery that could barely accommodate the activities of the probe has basically disappeared, and now the probe can stretch its robotic arm into the outer space while standing on the outer shell of the spacecraft.

"How could it suddenly shrink, what kind of weird space is here?" Atlas found out about this right away. But even if she found out, she didn't have much to do, so she could only think of countermeasures anxiously while watching the space around her shrink to what it was now.

However, because he was still unaware of his surroundings, until the shell of the Voyager slowly disappeared into normal space, Atlas was still helpless, and could only watch the strange space around him continue to slowly swallow the spaceship.

"Warning! Warn! The ship has lost contact with the outer compartments! Spatial anomaly! Spatial anomaly! Please leave as soon as possible! After a few more moments, the sirens inside the ship changed.

At this time, Atlas was no longer in the mood to accuse the Voyager of still acting according to the rules, but blamed himself in frustration: "I'm sorry, brother Captain-"

Before the sentence was finished, the space that had been swallowed up on the outer periphery of the spaceship had been restored to its initial rage. In the blink of an eye, the small space that remained, along with the core of the Voyager, vanished......
