As of 2260, more than 100 ships have been able to break away from Orion's cantilevers along a tortuous course and enter the infinite cantilevers through the judgment of artificial intelligence.

There are four cantilever arms in the Milky Way, and if you imagine that the vast silver disk has a diameter of 100,000 kilometers, you will understand how long the distance between the cantilever is, and in this world at least 1,000 light-years away, there is nothing, and sometimes it takes hundreds of light-years to find a star.

In the high-dimensional world, there are still dark energy tides between the cantilever arms, and even compared to other places, the dark energy tides here are more violent and manic, and the spatial folding multiplier in some areas will exceed 1000 in an instant.

No one knows what will happen to the ship as it navigates such a world, whether it will sink under the pressure of space, or if it will encounter other unpredictable dangers.

Regardless of the outcome, they will always provide more reference data for later ships to find the right route to the other cantilevers.

In 2270, another batch of 100 spaceships broke out of the Orion cantilever, compared to the flying star ships that were launched decades ago, this batch of spacecraft has been in the starry sky for a short time, and has not been tossing and turning in the cantilever for too long, and the target is directly outside the cantilever arm.

With minor optimizations and the addition of more atomic-level materials, the ship's ultimate speed has reached 25 times the speed of light, allowing them to continue their unfinished business and continue to move forward along the cantilevers.

Cao Chuan looked at the map of the Milky Way, and when the spaceships raced out of Orion's cantilever arm, the farthest spacecraft from them had already come to the world 1,200 light-years away.

If you switch your view to this spaceship, you will experience a condescending view of the Milky Way, as if the ship has jumped out of the galaxy and only sees a long star belt. Each belt is a cantilever, and each cantilever contains tens of billions of planets, stretching infinitely into distant places.

Unfortunately, at present, this leading spaceship is on the dead end, and Cao Chuan only notices that the dark energy tide around him is constantly weakening, but there are no star systems around. Unable to get more supplies, the ship can no longer turn around, and can only sail indefinitely until it runs out of energy and becomes cosmic garbage.

There are a few lucky ships that have found the dark energy tide, which has maintained at least 10 times the speed of light throughout the whole process, and will continue to approach the other cantilever at a rate of 10 light years per year.

"It's a pity. The final outcome is inconclusive, will the new second base fall on the Centaur cantilever or the Immortal cantilever arm? Cao Chuan muttered, there was no difference between the two for him, after all, apart from some differences in names, how many people would understand the difference between the two cantilever arms?

Probably the only difference is that if the results are obtained earlier, all the ships will be able to move in one direction at a time. There is no need to sacrifice so many ships.

At the same time, the 100 Morning-Star Exploration Spacecraft controlled by the Fog Moon had just arrived at Citadel. There are still 10 years of kung fu about to enter the world of cantilevers; The Yuanwang Association on the Reach Star is busy accepting refugees from the Rising Sun Country, and has officially launched the exploration plan to open up the fortress star.

Cao Chuan was still bored watching the scene of the spaceship moving forward in the dark starry sky, because there were no planets around for them to observe, even if it was a mental model, it produced a kind of complete boredom.

"Why isn't something interesting happening?" Cao Chuan thought about it, thinking that maybe he should still play his game. It will be interesting to observe the 3 fleets on the New Earth side.

But many things came without warning, and in the blink of an eye, in the high-dimensional space, gravity twisted like a turbulent river, and the space was instantly deformed and torn. Dark energy roared.

A storm is coming! This is the scene from the deep space radar, in the world 1000 light years away, it happens to be the starry sky between the cantilever arms, for most planets, this magnificent space storm that can be said to recreate space has nothing to do with them, and it is undoubtedly a catastrophe for the spacecraft in a state of transition.

"Alert! Alert! A beep sounded, and 318 of the more than 325 ships that flew out of Orion's cantilever detected abnormal spatial folding magnification readings and issued a warning, showing the magnitude of the storm's reach, almost covering hundreds of light-years.

Cao Chuan stood up and gave the order, "Turn off the Higgs Particle Generator!" ”

His commands were converted into 325 parallel commands, issued through the quantum entanglement communication device, with a delay of almost no more than 1 second, which the spacecraft received, and then slowed down sharply, but unfortunately, the impact of this storm was so great that it alone was not enough to offset the crisis.

"Strange... The spaceship didn't slow down... The speed is still increasing! Cao Chuan noticed a surprising scene, and he, who knew the universe very well, had never seen anything like it.

One spaceship at the center of the space storm suddenly disintegrated due to strong torsion and tension, and turned into several pieces of wreckage.

"Spacecraft 0058 has lost contact!" The final feedback gives a hint.

Before he could react, 10 seconds later, "Spacecraft 0255 lost contact!" ".

As if it was a chain reaction, in just half an hour, more than 100 spaceships completely lost contact, and if you understand the value of these spaceships, you will know that the lost spaceships are equivalent to one month's GDP of East Galaxy Company.

Through the external light sensor, Cao Chuan observed a rare light distortion phenomenon, which means that the space storm not only affects the high-dimensional space, but also the conventional space, and if a planet is in the center of the storm, it will be directly torn to pieces.

"I see, but why does a space storm spread to regular space? Where did it come from? Observing such a violent spatial change, Cao Chuan couldn't help but ask, he called up the data at that time, and hurriedly simulated it, wanting to know the answer.

For a question of this difficulty, the rule simulation took less than 3 hours to provide an answer.

It turned out that the Higgs particle generator was turned off, and during the space storm, the surroundings were still filled with a high concentration of natural Higgs particles, and it was still in a state of 100 times and 1000 times the speed of light, causing the speed of the spacecraft to increase instead of decreasing, and breaking in half under the terrible tearing force.

I understood the first question in my mind, unless we found a way to cancel out the surrounding Higgs particles, no matter what the spacecraft did, it would be torn apart by the space storm.

Since there was no way to easily navigate the storm, the only way to observe it in advance and avoid it was to turn to the source of the space storm.

He simulated the rules again, and through the time point of the spacecraft's disappearance, the spatial position statistics, and restored the original way of the space storm.

Another 3 hours passed, and he confirmed the center of the storm, knowing where it was, no matter how long the space storm would last, or if it would move, avoiding it in advance would greatly reduce their losses. (To be continued.) )
