Chapter 244: 22 Minutes of Infinite Loop
For five days.
Mo Ziyan spent all his time in the exploration of "Interstellar Frontier".
As she progresses, the more she discovers the amazing aspects of this game.
For example, the interior of a deep giant star needs to pass through the only counterclockwise rotating waterspout in the sea to enter.
The core area is wrapped in electrical energy, so it must be hidden in the body of the insulated jellyfish, and it can only be passed through when it sinks with the jellyfish.
This information.
She was brave enough to explore Blackthorn when she accidentally learned about it next to the corpse of a Nomai man in a tree hollow.
Because that man had been to the deep giant once before he was alive.
There is also the "intruder" comet that the solar station mentioned that it was going to send someone to investigate.
It took a lot of effort and she died several times.
I finally landed on the ice-covered comet.
Then, when a comet flew near the Sun, it happened to find that the ice above would slowly melt as it got closer to the Sun, exposing the crack in the middle.
It was she who took the opportunity to enter the comet's interior, and found several Nomai corpses inside, as well as some leftover information.
Obviously.
These are the people who were sent to investigate.
As a result, inside the comet, an ore called "ghost matter" exploded, killing them all.
A large amount of ghostly matter flies out of the comet and scatters on various planets, and if the player gets close, they will be instantly drained of their lives and killed instantly.
"It's no wonder that many planets have ghost matter on them, and it originally spread out from here."
"Dedicating their lives to scientific research, these Nomai people are really great."
Although it was not the first time he had seen the corpses of the Nomai people, Mo Ziyan couldn't help but sigh when he saw the corpses floating in the air that sacrificed for scientific research.
If it weren't for her coming here by chance.
I'm afraid that in a few thousand or even tens of thousands of years, no one will necessarily discover them and discover the changes that have happened to this comet.
The Sun Station, the Hanging City, the Quantum Knowledge Tower, and even the space technology used by the players all come from the Nomai civilization.
But even such a civilization.
In the end, it still did not escape the invasion of time.
Lost in this solar system in various ways.
And their original purpose was just to find the thing called the Eye of the Universe and crack the secret of the nature of the universe.
This spirit of scientific research is really impressive.
"This game is really amazing."
"It's as if every planet changes over time."
"I ran over to find some cosmic eye, but the whole army was wiped out, it's too miserable."
"In fact, with their level of technology, if they don't die, it's no problem to thrive in this solar system."
"It's a pity, but it's also admirable."
After figuring out the cause and effect, as well as the method of entering the deep giant star, Mo Ziyan did not stop any longer.
After another new cycle, he drove the spaceship to the deep giant, and sure enough, he found a counterclockwise rotating waterspout on it.
Through the downward head of the waterspout, she plunged headlong into the terrifying depths of the sea.
Then, according to the method learned, he left the spaceship and hid in the body of a giant jellyfish, and followed the jellyfish to slowly sink through the black power grid in the center of the planet.
"It worked! It's really in! ”
Mo Ziyan in front of the camera was very excited.
She barely sleeps, and it took her so long to connect countless clues before she finally got to a place that no player had ever entered.
Hidden so deeply.
Fools know that there is absolutely a vital role!
Immediately, she went straight to the core of the planet, and the excitement and anticipation in her heart also overcame the fear of the deep sea.
But even so.
The surrounding scene is still permeating.
In the pitch-black water, purple lightning continued to light up.
At the very center of the planet is a large black object that looks like a heart, with blood vessels extending out in all directions.
It's not a monster, but it's even more terrifying than a monster.
It made the audience sweat in their palms.
Fortunately.
Mo Ziyan is also a bold lord.
After taking a deep breath, he swam directly around the perimeter of his heart, and soon found a building wreck at the other end.
"There's something here!"
"It seems to be the core wreckage of the railgun outside the deep giant, and it turned out to have fallen into this kind of place."
Mo Ziyan was pleasantly surprised.
This railgun is exactly what the first thing a character sees after the time loop every time he dies, and it is built on top of the deep giant.
And she also noticed a detail.
Although the railgun will collapse and disintegrate after each launch, the direction of the launch is different.
Other words.
Although the character goes through a time loop, this railgun is beyond the loop, and its particularity is self-evident.
"Found the entrance!"
After turning around, Mo Ziyan finally found the entrance and entered the wreckage.
Explore carefully and activate the high-tech device above in the center of the hall.
Followed by.
A model resembling a deep giant star and a railgun slowly rises.
With a bang, the railgun fires a probe in one of the directions, extending outwards in a straight line.
It seems to demonstrate the railgun firing process.
Confused, she activated the next switch.
The original models of the deep giant star and railgun quickly shrank, and they actually shot out dense straight lines in all directions, like exploding spikes.
Ultimately.
At the end of one of the straight lines, it was connected to a familiar three-dimensional figure, causing everyone to be stunned in unison.
Because that graphic is nothing else.
Exactly the sign of the Eye of the Universe!
"? Does it mean that the probe launched by the railgun has found the Eye of the Universe? ”
"I see, this railgun is used to locate the Eye of the Universe!"
"How many times do you have to launch this dense straight line?"
"Wonderful! Through an infinite number of time loops, the detector is launched in a random direction, and as long as there are enough loops, there will always be a loop that can locate the eye of the universe! ”
"Was it a genius who came up with this?"
The people who reacted only felt their scalps tingle, and once again marveled at the greatness of science.
The same is true of human progress.
In the failed attempts again and again, we have explored a correct path, and we have today's glory.
Albeit just a humble installation.
But it fully shows the true meaning of scientific research!
"This should be the location of the Eye of the Universe."
Mo Ziyan's voice trembled a little, as something that runs through the entire game background, the importance of the Eye of the Universe goes without saying.
It may even be a key clue to escape from the solar system.
After so many days of hard exploration, she was finally found!
In the excitement, the last switch was turned on.
Then a string of strange text symbols slowly floated up.
"Is this ...... The coordinates of the Eye of the Universe? ”
Mo Ziyan hurriedly picked up her mobile phone and took a picture of the text, she felt that this thing should be used later.
After checking that nothing was missing, she went to the communication slate next to her and translated the conversation messages on it.
[Yarrow: "I've got some exciting news, Plivett, the Ash Twin Project is about to be ready to receive probe data from the orbital probe. ”】
[Plivett: "No problem, the probe tracking module is ready, capable of recording the flight trajectory of each launch, and I will notify you directly once the location of the Eye of the Universe is discovered.] ”】
Project Ashes Double Star?
Mo Ziyan noticed another key piece of information.
The words are specifically marked in other colors, and it is clear that the railgun launch is part of this plan.
Finding the coordinates of the Eye of the Universe is just one step.
She had a feeling.
I've slowly come to the heart of the game, and I'm not far from finding a way out of the solar system.
"Let's go, let's go to the Ashes Twins!"
The ash binary, as the closest planet to the Sun, is also the most complex planet to dissuade.
It is the only binary star system in the solar system.
The two planets orbit each other and have a very complex structure.
One is called the Ash Twin Star, and the surface is covered with sand.
One is called the Ember Binary, and the entire equatorial range is hollow.
The two planets are a celestial body, called an hourglass binary, and like an hourglass, sand moves between the two planets with gravity.
If the timing of the trip is not good.
The building you want to enter will be buried in the sand, or simply blocked inside.
Mo Ziyan had explored many times before.
Either drown in the sand, or there is too much sand to get into, or simply get lost in the intricate dungeons, which require a very high amount of time to explore.
Luckily, she'd already explored the seven-seven-eighty-eight before, but she wasn't done exploring the sand-covered ash binary.
"Huh? The buildings on the other side of the equator seem to be exposed? ”
Suddenly, Mo Ziyan, who had just flown over the twin stars, saw the buildings on the equator of the ash twin stars at a glance.
Because the sand has been pumped away, most of it has been exposed.
As the saying goes, it's better to come early than to come at a good time.
While the sun was still a little time to explode, she hurriedly landed and entered the building.
Only then did I realize that the building was actually a jump tower.
"I don't know if it can be used."
The last time she was here, she didn't even wait for the building to appear, she was sucked away by the sand and fell to her death on another planet.
So this time she was extra careful and didn't stay at the equator.
Instead, he stared at the jump room in the middle of the equator outside the building.
Sure enough.
After a while, the quicksand connecting the twin stars reappeared, slowly approaching this direction along the equator.
When the terrifying quicksand landed overhead, something like a small black hole suddenly appeared in the jump room below.
"It still works!?"
This new discovery undoubtedly shocked Mo Ziyan and the audience.
Subconsciously, Mo Ziyan manipulated the character to rush into the quicksand and enter the room.
Just as she was about to be sucked away, space distorted.
Teleport to a never-before-seen building.
The structure is in the shape of a ring, with the player character standing on the inside of the ring, relying on a gravity device to keep them standing, and looking up to see the opposite side of the ring.
All around is endless darkness.
It feels like a kingdom has been turned upside down.
"Is this ...... Inside the Ash Binary? ”
Mo Ziyan was stunned, he didn't expect that there was such a hidden place inside the Ash Twin Star.
If it weren't for the fact that she happened to encounter the quicksand and retreated, and came to the Jump Tower to wait for the teleporter to activate, she would not have been able to find out.
But think carefully.
Clues elsewhere seemed to have mentioned it, but she didn't know what it meant.
"It's too hidden."
"I don't think a lot of streamers have ever been to this place."
"There's no clue how you know here."
"One ring after another, it's a masterpiece of exploration games!"
"It's true that those who play for two hours and get a refund don't feel the true charm of the game at all."
"Do you mean...... Ready to clear the customs? ”
The audience talked a lot, and Mo Ziyan was also excited.
The control character continues to move forward, and finally finds a long row of dialogue messages on the communication tablet, which is far more informative than any previous one!
Especially one of them.
It completely solved all their doubts.
[Yarrow: "We're going to start Project Ash Double in the moment!" First, the solar station receives a command to launch the sun, prompting it to erupt. ”】
[Yarrow: "With the energy generated by the supernova explosion, go back to 22 minutes ago, give the command to the orbital probe cannon, and launch it. ”】
[Yarrow: "Twenty-two minutes after receiving these commands, the solar station will trigger the supernova again, sending the detection data to the past, and the infinite loop will be until the eye of the universe is found. ”】
[Yarrow: "Each cycle generated by Project Ashes Double lasts 22 minutes, and we can terminate it at any time. ”】
Yes!
It's no accident that they entered the time loop!
This reminded Mo Ziyan of the black hole and white hole theory that he had seen in another place two days ago.
That is, the process of a thing entering a black hole and then coming out of a white hole has a reverse time difference.
When the energy injected into it is large enough, the thing has already come out of the white hole before it has fully entered the black hole.
The greater the energy, the greater the time difference.
And the energy generated by the supernovaization of the sun can make the time difference between black and white holes reach 22 minutes.
That is, 22 minutes ago!
If Mo Ziyan is not mistaken.
The interval between each time the player starts the game and the sun explodes.
Exactly 22 minutes!
