Chapter 0500: Dream On

There is only one star in the vicinity of the Devil's Hand meteorite belt within a few light-years that has entered its twilight years. This sling, which has aged and transformed into a white dwarf, exudes the cold glow of Bai Cen Cen in the dark starry sky, which not only makes people not feel the heat, but is a kind of cold that penetrates deep into the bone marrow.

Bai Czencen's cold starlight reached the meteorite belt, and it was so weak that it could be ignored, and the entire meteorite belt was in a gloomy state, and the black hole seemed to be about to be devoured. When his small expedition spacecraft of the Butterfly Shadow hovered far over the edge of the meteorite belt, he finally felt the danger and mystery of this meteorite belt up close.

Because of the limited start-up capital, his expedition ship was only a second-hand small expedition ship bought for five million federal coins. This drop-shaped expedition spacecraft is about 150 meters in diameter. One hundred and fifty meters in diameter sounds like a lot, but that's relative to an intra-atmosphere vehicle. And as an interstellar exploration spaceship, it is really too small and too small, so small that it is miserable.

Generally, this level of exploration spacecraft is suitable for interstellar exploration within a light-year range, and is generally carried by large exploration spacecraft as subspacecraft. When a large expedition spacecraft enters an unfamiliar star field, it usually releases several of these sub-ships to explore the unfamiliar starry sky in detail.

This kind of sub-ship is characterized by its compactness, complete performance and complete functions. Although the performance is not outstanding, although the self-sustaining power is not far behind, it can cope with most of the situations in interstellar exploration alone. We do not seek to be outstanding in various indicators, but only to pursue comprehensiveness. Generalist. It is the characteristics of such a spaceship. And that's exactly what I liked.

After all, my expedition this time was inside the galaxy, and most of the routes I took were official routes. The biggest feature of the official route is: There will inevitably be inhabited planets at certain distances along the route, and the maintenance of spaceships and the supply of materials are very convenient. Relying on the official route, it replenishes all the way along the way, which completely makes up for the shortcomings of the small spacecraft's weak self-sustaining ability and short range.

Moreover, there are generally no star thieves near the official waterway, and the safety factor is high. No fighting, just a normal rush. Although the performance of this small ship is average, it is completely competent. Too high a performance is not needed.

And the only section of the star road that leaves the main channel is also the last leg of the trip. This section of the star road. It was only five .2 light-years away from the last supply point. At 5.2 light years, the Butterfly Shadow can be reached with a single space jump, and there is no pressure on the consumption of energy blocks and the supply of materials.

Because I am a solo ship-hull expedition, I have to deal with various situations during the expedition. Therefore, the requirements for the comprehensive function of the spacecraft are relatively high.

And after entering the meteorite belt. Even if the performance of this small spaceship is ten times stronger, if it is really hit by a meteorite, it will still be the life of a broken body and a starry sky garbage. Therefore, in the meteorite belt, as long as it is not directly upgraded to the level of "Galaxy", the performance of the spacecraft is basically meaningless. Anyway, a weak performance collision is finished, and a strong performance collision is still a failure, so there is no need to make such a good spaceship.

Don't look at this boat small. But it has all the organs, and it can actually make short-distance space jumps. The maximum distance of a space jump is six light years. It couldn't be any higher. After all, the boat is too small, the space is limited, the power is limited, and the long jump distance is not something that the small body of this small boat can bear.

Because it can be space-jumped, the ship also comes with an energy shield that reaches a thousand degrees. For such a small spaceship, this is really valuable. A thousand-degree energy shield is quite powerful. If the third cosmic velocity of the 10,000-ton boulder collides, it will definitely be bounced off by the energy shield, and the spacecraft will not be damaged at all. Of course, in the face of meteorites with a radius of hundreds of meters or thousands of meters, it is not enough to see at all.

In fact, with the performance of this spaceship, even if it is second-hand, it is not something that five million Federation Coins can take. How much does a better mecha cost, it's more than five million.

The reason why this small expedition spaceship, which is eighty or ninety percent new, was able to be bought by itself at this price was because the original owner of the spacecraft went bankrupt, and the spacecraft was an asset that was seized and auctioned off by the court. He threw a million federal coins at the judge of the enforcement court, so this expedition spaceship, which was worth about 10 million, only cost 5 million to get into his hands.

The original owner of this spaceship was a small wealthy businessman, and he personally liked interstellar exploration very much, but he only had the cultivation of Gu Wu Liuzhong. If you really go out on an adventure, it's not an adventure, it's for the starry sky beast to eat. Limited by his cultivation qualifications, the little wealthy businessman knew that he was hopeless in his life to explore the starry sky, but he really liked interstellar exploration too much, so he customized this small spaceship from the manufacturer and flew it in a short distance to live a good life.

As for why you don't make a big one to play, the reason is simple.

One is the issue of money. Since he is a small rich businessman, he is not a big rich man, so he naturally can't afford the largest spaceship and the most luxurious configuration, so he can only get a small one to play. Although it has the word "small", but no matter what, he is also a rich businessman, so although he can't afford to play a big boat and a small boat, this small boat must be played to the best.

Another is that this boat can indeed only be used for dry enjoyment, at least in the hands of this person can never sail far, so a luxurious configuration of a small boat is indeed enough to use. No matter how big a ship is, it's a waste if you can't use it. Therefore, to make such a small boat with an ultra-luxurious configuration, jump a few light years without anything, and enjoy it within the range of human activities, the performance of this boat is already rich.

Therefore, when choosing the type of ship, the little wealthy merchant made a major change to this type of fully functional sub-ship, and all functions were strengthened. And in order to set off the atmosphere of the adventure, all the configurations are really set according to the high standards of interstellar exploration. It even raised the energy shield of the original version, which was only 200 degrees, to 1,000 degrees.

This little wealthy businessman smashed in more than 30 million federal coins before and after, and finally created this super exploration spaceship. It was precisely because too much money was invested in this expedition spacecraft that the capital chain of this small wealthy businessman was broken. In the end, he became insolvent and forced bankrupt.

The expedition spaceship that this sad little rich businessman worked hard to build finally cheapened himself and made the Butterfly Shadow. I've made my first adventure into this world, and I hope I won't leave empty-handed this time!

Sorting out his thoughts, calming down, he activated the Butterfly Shadow and entered the meteorite belt with one person and one boat.

As soon as I entered the meteorite belt, it was like entering a huge black curtain, and the entire porthole was immediately pitch black. You can no longer see the starry sky, let alone the starlight in the starry sky. This meteorite belt is strangely tight.

On the display instruments of various detection devices in the cab, the red, red, green and green numbers also began to beat wildly. The limit values that fluctuate up and down like a roller coaster make people wonder if these gauges are all uniform.

As the ship went deeper, it became darker and darker outside the portholes, and the numbers on those gauges jumped more and more violently. Because it's still on the periphery of the meteorite belt. The density of meteorites is not very dense. So the spacecraft can still fly at sub-light speeds. When the spacecraft entered the meteorite belt for an hour, the various instruments in the cockpit suddenly flashed like a climax, and the indicator lights, which were originally cold light sources, actually emitted dazzling strong light. Then, like a little brother who must be weak after shooting, the display instruments of all detection equipment - all are unified to zero!

Looking beyond the porthole, it was completely dark, and the spaceship was flying silently like a fish in a pool of black water. If it weren't for the beating flight speed display on the dashboard. I don't even feel like the ship is flying.

According to the experience of previous people, to this area. The density of meteorites has begun to become denser, and the flight speed is also higher, and the flight trajectory is more irregular, which is considered to be entering the danger zone.

He didn't turn on the lights on the ship, the flashing lights on the dashboard, the flickering fluorescence swept across his face, and the portholes reflected in various beating and changing colors, and the cockpit was so quiet that it made people's hearts palpitate.

Sitting cross-legged, collecting the mind, the spiritual platform is empty, and the spiritual power in the sea of consciousness is calmly outgoing with a steady intensity and constant speed. The formless and substantial spiritual power quietly passed through the bulkhead of the cockpit without hindrance, and finally projected into the dark starry sky outside the porthole.

Finally got out of the small space, and the spiritual power was like a group of elementary school students who had just given the order to disband, with the spaceship as the center, and quickly spread out in all directions around it. It seems to be slow and fast, and although the speed of spiritual power expansion outward is not as imminent as that of divine consciousness, it is also a fleeting and instantaneous level. In the blink of an eye, the spiritual power had been fully spread out to the starry sky 10,000 kilometers away, and only then did I slightly feel that the spiritual power in the sea of consciousness was a little weak.

It seems that the distance of spiritual power in the starry sky is much farther than he imagined, and it has actually doubled. I originally thought that the maximum distance of this all-round release should be about 5,000 kilometers, but I didn't expect it to reach 10,000 kilometers. It seems that if it is a directional outward release, it should be able to reach 20,000 kilometers. This is a good thing, and my safety factor has increased by a few points.

The perception of mental power is not affected by the outside black or not. It's the same true for a blind person during the day. Under this completely dark starry sky, in this meteorite belt full of meteorites flying and full of dangers, even optical detection equipment that does not rely on detection radar signals is completely useless. At the moment, all I can rely on is my own spiritual power.

The maximum distance of mental power release was tested, and the output intensity of mental power was slowly slowed down, and the distance of mental power release was also shortened, and finally the maximum detection distance was 1,000 kilometers away. The release of mental power is maintained at this distance, which can not only ensure that the spacecraft has enough warning time to avoid meteorites, but also greatly reduce the output burden of mental power.

If you maintain this level of spiritual power output, with the speed at which your current spiritual power recovers in the middle of your cultivation, you can basically maintain a balance between income and expenditure.

This is important.

I don't know how long I will fly in this trip, and continuous detection ability is the key to the success of my trip. If your spiritual power is in a state of making ends meet, and after a long time, your mental power is exhausted, and you have not yet flown to the center of the meteorite belt, then you will be in danger. Therefore, the principle of using spiritual power is to save what can be saved. Be sure to try your best to keep your mental power in a state of perfection, and try not to have a decline in your mental power.

The spiritual power cannot directly see the meteorite, and the spiritual power is not so strong. But the psychic force can perceive the existence of the meteorite and the trajectory of the meteorite's movement.

This mental force field that is released outside the mental power. In other words, in the realm more similar to spiritual power, the difference between meteorites and the starry sky can be perceived. The movement of meteorites is reflected in the realm of spiritual power. The feeling is like the outline of a black shadow moving on a piece of white paper, although I can't see what the black shadow is, but I can perceive the shape of the black shadow and clearly perceive the movement trajectory of the black shadow.

A small teardrop-shaped spaceship, without even opening its energy shield, silently passed through the meteorite belt known as the "Devil's Hand". The small spaceship is like a fish swimming in the sea. Deftly and smoothly dodging the huge meteorites that have no flight rules. If the meteorite belt weren't so pitch black, someone would have seen the trajectory of this small expedition ship and it would have been more than that it was avoiding meteorites. It's better that a meteorite is making way for the ship.

Every time a meteorite is found heading towards the spacecraft, sometimes several meteorites collide with the spacecraft from different directions at the same time, but the spacecraft does not change course and speed. When the meteorite was about to crash into the spaceship, these meteorites were as if they suddenly had eyes and were afraid of crashing. Inexplicably turned his head away. It's incredible.

Sometimes there is a meteorite flying in front of it, but the spaceship just doesn't change course and crashes straight into it. As if he had some deep hatred with that meteorite, he had to hit you to the death, seeing that the spaceship was about to hit the meteorite, the meteorite turned around and walked away with a slight turn, not at all like this little broken ship.

Only when there is a sudden collision, and the guide is flying with gravel, and the flying gravel hits the gravel again, and the guide zhì flight trajectory has no trace to follow. This small spaceship will pass through unscathed like a carp piercing through the waves, swinging its head and waging its tail in a few movements. Only then can you see that the spacecraft is dodging the meteorite. And not a meteorite dodging the spaceship.

The reason why this effect can be achieved is actually very simple. To put it bluntly, it's a prediction. It's just that his spiritual power is too strong, and he is in his own spiritual realm, so this kind of prediction ability that everyone has has has been exerted to the extreme. Knowing the flight trajectory of these meteorites, in many cases, there is no need to hide anymore, but directly designing a flight path through the gap between the trajectory of these meteorites has become a better choice. Only when there are unexpected situations, the flight trajectory cannot be predicted, and the route cannot be predetermined, will there be a situation where you need to dodge.

It's just that as the spacecraft goes deeper into the center of the meteorite belt, the density of meteorites is getting higher and higher, the size of the meteorites is getting bigger and bigger, and the speed of meteorite flight is getting faster and faster.

After a day, meteorites that were usually a few hundred meters in size and more than 10 kilometers per second have become super-large, ultra-fast and ultra-dense meteorites that are more than 10 kilometers per second and 20 kilometers per second. Sometimes a massive meteorite explodes in an instant, and the only word I can think of is "meteor shower".

At this time, the small spirit of the Butterfly Shadow has become an advantage, and it is easier to avoid these meteorites that fly like headless flies. The meteorite belt that has penetrated into this distance is already a bit of a scramble to deal with it by itself.

Another day passed. The 1,500-meter-wide rocks, with a speed of 30 kilometers per second, and a density of less than 200 kilometers apart, are really too busy to deal with, and they are already a little tired of coping.

I don't know how deep this meteorite belt is? If such a trend develops, it won't take a few days, and it won't be possible to collide with spacecraft in rows at speeds of hundreds or thousands of kilometers per second, one after another!

Whatever, I can handle it for now anyway, and I'll talk about it when I can't handle it. Since it is a star-rated expedition, since it is to find natural treasures, how can it be so easy. If you don't pay a certain price and don't take a certain risk, how can you get something good for nothing.

By the tenth day, it was already a 10,000-meter-level meteorite, with a speed of 100 kilometers per second, and a density of only 100 kilometers apart. I was completely scrambled to deal with it.

At the time of 15 days, the meteorite of 20,000 meters, the speed of 200 kilometers per second, and the interval of 50 kilometers were no longer in a hurry, but messy in the wind.

In the twentieth day, the meteorite suddenly skyrocketed to 100,000 meters, with a speed of 1,000 kilometers per second and an interval of 10 kilometers, leaving less than 0.01 second for his reaction.

For a while, the meteorite belt that had skyrocketed in all aspects, and I felt that the Butterfly Shadow was like a mung bean that had fallen into a pumpkin pile, desperately twisting its small body to pass through the cracks of pumpkins flying at high speed, and it might be smashed to pieces at any time.

These meteorites are large, fast, and dense, and they only have less than 0.01 second reaction time to avoid these meteorites, and this kind of ultra-high-intensity mental power output can be dealt with by fighting with all their might in a day or two, after all, their peak spiritual power in the early stage of the rotation is not vegetarian. But if this intensity and frequency are maintained for a long time, then sooner or later the Butterfly Shadow will be crushed by these meteorites, and this is a dead end!

Who knows how deep this meteorite belt will be? Will the meteorites in the back be more perverted? How long will it take for me to fly through the meteorite belt to the center?

Now the consumption rate of his spiritual power is far greater than the recovery speed, and at this intensity of consumption, it will be exhausted in two days at most, and then it will really be over.

Hmph, I want to kill this girl like this, and I want to ruin this girl's adventure debut in this life......?
