Chapter 715: The Star Core Beast's Lair
It was a wonderful feeling for the battleship to pass through the void of the universe, and even after one experience, and we were sure that there was no crack in the void world, we all stopped resting and concentrated in the control room to stare at the endless darkness outside.
Mu Qing increased the power of the space probe, hoping to find a glowing star, otherwise it would be easy to get lost in the vast darkness.
But the theory that humans can theoretically see infinity is not valid here, as if the stars in the entire universe have disappeared, and the screen of the probe is still blank.
"Forty light-years of precise detection, there are no stars!" Mu Qing gave the final answer, which was much different from the data at the beginning, but then asked: "You said that the edge, could it be a black curtain blocking the starlight that should exist?" ”
We were all silent, because no one had ever reached the edge of the universe, and we didn't know what it was, maybe it was really a black curtain as Mu Qing said, or a huge black mass, blocking the view and the probe's inspection.
Seeing that we didn't speak, Mu Qing opened the star map and made several spatial jumps with its sense of space, but the detection screen never responded, and everyone could only rest on the chair after being numb.
Since there was no chair for me, only an open space was reserved and I made it cross-legged. Boredom increases the depression and fear in the heart, and when people are depressed, the more they don't want to talk, the more depressing the atmosphere becomes.
I wanted to find something to say, but I couldn't say it in my throat, until I saw Zhang Shun, and suddenly remembered that when he broke the protective shield formed by the joint formation of the Tello warship a few days ago, he also entered the state of extreme sword, and asked: "Senior brother, when did you realize the unity of human and sword?" ”
A loud sound broke the silence, and everyone's bodies that seemed to be still finally moved, all looking at me. Zhang Shun shifted his posture and faced me and said, "Senior brother, at the moment when you and Brother Xuanqing were blocked, I suddenly had a strange feeling in my heart, and I entered the state of unity of man and sword without trying it." ”
Many times, a flash of inspiration is comparable to decades of contemplation, just ......
I sighed and said, "Master, his old man doesn't want us to take the path of the Extreme Sword, I don't think about which road we all set foot on in the end!" ”
Zhang Shun thought differently from me, and said with a smile: "Senior brother, in the face of a strong enemy, I will always feel that my strength is insufficient and my confidence is insufficient. Extreme sword is the best way to make up for it! ”
"Hmm!" I answered, because no matter what kind of idea or mentality, I have already embarked on this path, and it is no longer possible to change.
Although the conversation between me and Zhang Shun was only a few sentences, it effectively broke the silence, and the maintenance team that followed by watching the starry sky together also began to talk, and there was a sound in the silent control room, and it quickly returned to normal.
On the third day, I was sitting on the ground dozing off, and Li Ruoshui snuggled in my arms when my daughter-in-law and sister and Xiaolu had no time to take care of it, and she had fallen asleep under exhaustion.
In addition to the maintenance team, her cultivation is the lowest one, there are many of them, and she is the person who needs to be protected the most, and when she encounters something unknown, she will have more terror in her heart than anyone else, so her daughter-in-law and sister have long found out that she didn't speak.
I tried to wrap my body around her to give her more security. Mu Qing, who hadn't left the control room for three days, had a lot of energy consumption under the constant consumption, and the whole person looked a little haggard. But even so, she still didn't dare to relax in the slightest.
After all, at warp speed, every second flies a long distance, even if it is only two seconds out of control, the spacecraft is likely to lose course.
I opened my eyes and looked, and many people were resting in a daze, when suddenly there was an intermittent ticking sound in the spaceship, and after half a second, it began to become regular.
Mu Qing also shouted happily: "There is an astral body!" ”
Xuanqing and the others hurriedly got up, leaned over to take a look, and a relaxed smile appeared on their faces, I am too big, I don't dare to be in a hurry in this case, and only after they have seen it did I gently pick up Li Ruoshui, and leaned over with one hand in my arms to take a look.
After a few days of silence, a dozen spots finally appeared, and although they were not life stars, and the number was unreasonably small, it was undoubtedly a stimulant for us.
Good news followed, Mu Qing compared the star map and determined that the twelve stars were also marked in the star map, but they were only similar to the existence of coordinates, and there was no indication otherwise.
Xuan Qing proposed on a whim: "I finally walked into a strange universe, there have been no stars in hundreds of light years, and now a few have suddenly appeared, should we take a detour to take a look?" ”
We were all silent, but we could see in everyone's eyes that curiosity was driven by desire, and so was my daughter-in-law's sister, but she kept her sanity and asked Mu Qing if the past would affect the future voyage.
Mu Qing looked at the star map and said: "No, now that there are target points, even if they move during the period, they can locate the course, but they are like a lone tree that suddenly appears in the desert Forte, which looks a little weird, and the life detector on the battleship is set according to human beings......"
She paused, but we all understood what she meant. On those twelve planets of different colors, there are likely to be alternative life forms, and it is even possible to encounter super civilizations.
After all, life in human form is not the only one in the universe.
There are not many things in the stars that we are afraid of, but the power of science is theoretically infinite, and many things it creates, and the power has broken a lot of energy in the universe.
For example, the core temperature of the hydrogen bomb explosion is several times higher than that of the sun, and the others are too many to count. At the beginning of the Tree of Life, in the face of the huge population of the Zerg, the gods had to back down.
If we mess with that race, even if we can leave, it's a huge problem.
We have a clear goal and destination, there is no need to risk for the unknown, I thought of this, and was about to remind my daughter-in-law and sister, but she obviously thought of it too, and said: "Go around, don't land, and leave if you find something wrong!" ”
She thinks the same way as we do, so no one disagrees.
The battleship quickly turned around and flew towards the first planet at warp speed, and after half a day, their shape could only be seen with the naked eye, and the light emitted by the star was very faint, and the nearest one was pale blue.
But at this moment, a strange light suddenly appeared in the vast void in front of him, wisps of silk, like glowing spider silk, spanning several light years.
The battleship came to a quick halt, hovering in the void.
Countless silk threads appeared suddenly, giving us the feeling of some kind of defense, not daring to rush over, and in the short time that appeared, colorful light appeared on the "ribbon" composed of silk threads, and when the battleship came to a complete stop, a bewitching flower bloomed on it, with bright colors, each of which was several kilometers in size, and in the dark background, it was terrifying.
Li Ruoshui had already woken up and snuggled in my arms. I didn't put her down, let her hide in my arms, saw the changes outside, and said, "Is it a cosmic vision, or is it manipulated?" ”
No one can answer that question now, but it seems to me that it tends to be more of the latter. Anything can happen in the vast universe, and all kinds of nebulae will appear, but the white ribbon that stretches for several light years in front of you is full of these strange flowers, and it is too ridiculous to say that it is naturally formed.
"Whew!"
While everyone was still thinking about this question, a strange roar suddenly came from the dead space, which directly tore through the vacuum and transmitted through the biological metal.
At this moment, the demonic flower in front of it was like ink in the water, and it was suddenly muddy, and a huge pitch-black figure came out of it.
At first, only the front was revealed, like a small planet, and soon the back part also drilled out of the white silk thread.
"Starcoremon!" The daughter-in-law's sister was the first to recognize it, and before her words fell, a few low roars came from the vacuum again, and dozens of star core beasts jumped out and pounced straight towards us.
Although they are thousands of kilometers apart, their speed is too fast, and they can quickly reach them after breaking the silk thread, and with the appearance of the Star Core Beast, white silk threads appear in the middle of the twelve planets at the same time, and countless demonic flowers bloom at the same time.
I took a breath of cold air, needless to say, I could think that now I have entered the nest of the star core beast, they are good at devouring the star core, and it can be understood that there are no planets within dozens of light years, but the blooming flowers don't know what's going on, it's very weird.
Fifty or sixty terrifying star core beasts ran out, we were also very nervous, Mu Qing controlled the battleship and began to retreat, but the leading star core beast swayed more than the warp speed, and it was impossible for us to escape now.
The distance of thousands of kilometers was just the blink of an eye, and when it was about to be overtaken, the daughter-in-law's sister suddenly shouted: "Stop!" Her voice fell, and she flipped her hand and took out the golden star core beast from the space she carried.
After the Ancient Star Core Beast handed it over to us, it followed Xiaobai, and when it came to the Xuan Realm, it was coaxed over by his daughter-in-law and sister, and was included in the carry-on space.
Sensing the existence of its kind, the Golden Star Core Beast opened its mouth and let out a sharp scream, and almost as soon as the sound came out, all the Star Core Beasts rushing towards us stopped.
Only then did my clenched hand relax, and the Ancient Star Core Beast had replaced the Golden Star Core Beast. When it was handed over to us, my daughter-in-law's sister said that it was an ancient species, and now it seems that it is really an ancient species.
I remember that Xiaobai can communicate with it, and I also tried to say: "Let them stop, don't mess around, we're just passing by!" ”
In the area where the Star Core Beast exists, we can suppress our curiosity, it is impossible to run to the planet where a group of giant beasts live, and the twelve planets are now too far apart, and when they get close, it is estimated that they will be huge.
I just tried to communicate, but I didn't expect the golden star core beast to jump from the palm of my daughter-in-law's sister's hand to the console as if it understood, and let out a sharp scream, and all the star core beasts that were rushing towards me just now began to retreat.
