Chapter 879 The Ruined World

Chapter 879: Ruined World

It only took less than a second to enter another space. The shield on the outside of the spacecraft that ensured that the hull was not eroded by the void stirred up strong ripples. These ripples interfered and eroded each other, and eventually turned into a sparkling wave that made the optics The observation screen seemed to be filled with countless snowflakes in an instant. Such a strong reaction shows that we have passed an extremely unstable information structure. This information structure may be the talisman that ensures the survival of that space in the void field to this day, but It's protected in a way we've never seen before.

"We passed a membrane-like structure, a mathematically described membrane." One of Tavel's mass projections is staying in her research room. What appears in front of us is her holographic image, with countless floating in front of her. The complex pattern, the refreshed data on it makes people want to fight with scientists from all over the world at a glance. "More valuable first-hand information, this is really a wonderful structure, it is actually a filtering information constraint rule... ...Well, this may be a little difficult to understand, but its function is very simple, which is to filter everything that passes through it, so that they can be filtered from a void state into an orderly state. One side of the membrane is disordered void, and the other side of the membrane is disordered void. It is an ordered world after being reorganized... The spacecraft itself is ordered, so we can pass through this membrane unchanged, as if we enjoy immunity."

"Well, you have plenty of time to study things like membranes, or build networks." I quickly gave in and raised my hands to this bespectacled sister, who has a gentle personality but becomes very fanatical when it comes to science, "Now tell us , how is our contact with the outside world?"

"All kinds of information transmitted outside the membrane are blocked, but the newly developed communication unit and the channel directly connected to Avalon can bypass these obstacles. The communication efficiency may be reduced, but it will not affect the flagship work."

This was good news, and Sandora immediately ordered the two fleets that were waiting outside to stay in place. They will expand a working area in the void, just like the void nodes created by the Gods, using powerful self-sourced information barriers and constantly absorbing and transforming the surrounding void fields to maintain a small void island that can guarantee physical existence. This technology originated from the Protoss, but after many improvements and changes, it has now become two completely different things from the Protoss' void node, although their functions are to establish an outpost in the void.

Doing this requires a lot of energy, so before we set off, we brought a lot of "Giant Fortress" special service ships specifically designed to provide additional energy output for the entire fleet. This new ship was modified from the hull of the Frontier-class battleship and was cancelled. It is 80% armed, with an additional 30% shield strength and 50% armor strength, and is equipped with three sets that can project energy supplies to all friendly units within a radius of 2.5 light years. The hyperspace energy supply units, these round and pot-bellied spaceships house our most powerful psionic energy reactor at present. The legendary psionic energy well is, of course, miniaturized. Tavel recovered these technologies from the energy supply system of the "Warsong" planetary battleship and applied them to the new spacecraft. This can be regarded as one of the by-products of our huge harvest in the world of Mobrador.

We pick and choose from the ancient heritage, tinker with it, and update the existing spaceships one by one like patches. Although this sounds inferior, it is undeniable that they are really effective. Now the Imperial Fleet is finally Unlike at the beginning, where there were only a few monotonous main ships, and the tactical flexibility was extremely limited, we have a lot of special service ships or special tactics ships, even if they are all 2.0 spaceships modified from other old models. Sandora and I also regard them as treasures.

In fact, Sandora even divided these new generation spaceships into a series at my suggestion, called T2 spaceships, just like the upgraded units of the Revenge Fleet, which means super evolution. I admit that in this process, , Bubble’s continuous chanting in my ears played a decisive role...

The Imperial Admiral re-established a short-distance connection with pl-15, and added the two void reconnaissance ships that had lost contact before to the communication channel. All ships entered a stealth state to prevent disturbing the natives here— - Doing this seemed a bit unnecessary, because we soon discovered that our spacecraft seemed to be in an area that the local indigenous people could not observe, a chaotic zone close to the "eggshell".

Under the guidance of the huge coordinates of the Imperial Admiral, the other three spaceships quickly jumped over. PL-15 was parked thousands of kilometers in front of the flagship, constantly releasing detectors, and after the void reconnaissance ship No. 8355 came over, First, we applied for entry into the port for maintenance. From the surveillance screen on the bridge, Sandora and I were surprised to see that the ship had suffered serious damage. Two large mechanisms were missing in its middle section. There was also a laceration where the internal structure could almost be seen.

After asking, we ruled out the speculation that it was under attack. It turned out that the moment it was "swallowed" in, the spacecraft tried to forcibly start the void boost engine and leave the scene, but the special properties of the "net" caused it to be swallowed up after the engine was started. It was alone pushed out of this space. It separated from the hull, leaving serious trauma to spacecraft 8355. Now 80% of the crew of void reconnaissance ship 8355 have been transferred to spacecraft 8356, which came in later. Only 100 Twenty-fifths of the crew kept the severely injured scout ship operating normally and drove it back to the Imperial Admiral's starport.

"The operation did not violate regulations, but the spacecraft was still almost nonfunctional. That captain was so unlucky."

Sandora commented on the captain of the void reconnaissance ship. Although he would be exempted from punishment, he damaged an imperial warship after all. For any imperial captain, damaging his own spaceship outside the battlefield is a big problem. It's not an honorable thing, and I'm afraid the captain will have to blame himself for a long time before he gets another military exploit.

"This space seems to be enclosed in an eggshell."

My sister looked at the image sent back by pl-15 and suddenly said thoughtfully.

"An egg shell the size of the gravitational boundary of the solar system," Sandora enlarged a scanned image. "No wonder their star map only has a radius of one light year, because their world is really only this big...a ruined space."

Tavel's image appeared on the officer's platform, holding an information terminal that was almost as much a part of her body as her glasses: "Your Majesty, the space model has been established, and it is unexpectedly simple. This space is wrapped in a layer with no thickness. In the barrier, the structure of the barrier is similar to the world barrier. It has no thickness in the current dimension, but has a complex structure in higher dimensions. It contains the three elements of time, space and law, but the three elements are in a state of chaos, making it impossible for anything to leave safely. Here, the reason for this chaotic state is unknown. The effective radius of the barrier is less than one point and five light years, which is even smaller than the gravitational radius of the capital star system (solar system), and the stable space within the barrier is even smaller than this number. Stable No natural celestial objects have been found in space. According to simulation calculations, this may be a fragment of the world formed in the vacuum zone of a certain universe after the end of the world. A large number of Imperial starship wreckage was found in the inner space, and the number of wreckage is unknown. Finally, there is this structure——"

Tavel said, presenting a holographic picture in front of our eyes. It looks like a sphere with many layers. The second layer of the sphere from the outside to the inside is specially marked.

"This is the area between the barrier of this space and the inner space, with a thickness of 0.3 light-years. It is where we are now. The state of space here is very chaotic, filled with high-intensity ghosts that cannot be dissipated for unknown reasons. It radiates and is visible to the naked eye.”

At Tavel's prompt, we turned our attention to a surveillance image showing the space environment outside the spacecraft, and found that the space outside was a large chaotic and dirty gray-black gas cloud, with bright blue streaks constantly appearing in the gray-black gas cloud. Lightning flashed across, each lightning arc drawing out at least dozens of kilometers.

"The energy concentration in this psionic area is extremely high. It can almost charge the shield of the spacecraft. There are at least two hundred ravens taking a psionic bath on the second platform. Oh, and they are still shooting with arcane missiles. Beach volleyball, do we need to catch them back?”

Me: "...let them go. If you really can't stand it, just send a few scorpions over and they'll be back soon."

"I understand," Tavel said with a military salute. "In addition, this is a completed star map. This may be the simplest star map I have ever seen - in theory."

Indeed, this is probably the most rudimentary star map we have ever seen. It can even be said that this space is the most rudimentary "world" we have ever seen, if it can really be called a world.

Sandora transferred the star map to the projection system on the officer's platform, and then opened another thing.

That is the log data we extracted from the "Hope" spacecraft that crashed on Mars. This log contains a navigation chart marked with hundreds of coordinate points. The range of the navigation chart is less than one light-year. Smaller than the gravitational boundary of the sun. At that time, we were confused by how small the star map was. But now, when Shandora overlaid the star map of "Hope" with the world model drawn by Tavel, We found that the two pictures fit perfectly.

"The indigenous people here explored their entire world with tattered spaceships they pieced together from the ruins of the Middle East, and then came to the conclusion that the universe is only one light-year away," Sandora began to mark some key points where the two images overlapped. Click, "That's not bad. Look here, in the log star map we got, all the coordinate points near the border are marked with extremely dangerous footnotes. Now the truth is revealed. These coordinate points are all located where we are now. This A layer of psionic energy storm zone with a thickness of about 0.3 light-years. This layer of psionic energy storm zone separates the 'shell' of the world from the stable inner space. The indigenous people do not know how to sail in this environment for a long time... …”

"It seems that it was Columbus among the local indigenous people who discovered these 'dangerous coordinates'," my sister laughed softly, "It's a pity that there is no new continent at the end of the storm..."

We have put aside the topic of how the local indigenous people used the imperial warships they picked up from the ruins to explore the edge of the world, and the extent of their knowledge of the world. The detector released by pl-15 has collected the data. Having received enough images of inner space, we now begin to observe with wonder and curiosity this "eggshell universe" that has been closed for perhaps 720,000 years.

Incredible, mysterious, depressing and twisted, this unintentionally discovered world soon brought us enough surprises, especially the piles of spacecraft wreckage - Qianqian and the others couldn't help but let out a low cry. Exclaimed, the tragic scene here...

We only met once, after the Battle of the Great Nebula.

Countless warship wreckage twisted, melted, and piled together. Those irregular large floating islands of metal constituted this "planet" in the space without celestial bodies. It may be the circularity in the motion of celestial bodies, or it may be the huge gravitational force. Over hundreds of thousands of years, the shape of these debris has been changed subtly, and the three largest accumulations of debris have even formed a sphere similar to a planet - of course, not very regular.

The "celestial bodies" composed of countless battleship wreckage are unevenly distributed in the inner space, forming a "galaxy" similar in size to the solar system, but with no stars and no orbital system. Life reactions are released from those wreckage, indicating that they are above They are all owned by people. Among these wreckage, we can also see many aircraft that are obviously controlled by people. These aircraft are strange in shape and most of them look very ancient. We can distinguish many imperial-style parts from them, and even some spaceships that look more pleasing to the eye. The main body of the Imperial battleship is still roughly intact - with many patches piled on it.

"I feel like I'm seeing a dumpster."

Bingtis spoke very bluntly, biting the lollipop she had just tricked from Dingdang, her eyes flashing with interest, "How did they make those scraps of metal fly?"

"You have to believe in the quality of the Empire's creations," I shrugged, pointing to the weird DIY spaceships flying around on the screen, "You can sit on anything unloaded from the Empire's spaceship, even a front-loading washing machine. It’s for colonizing Mars.”

"This is really the weirdest world I have ever seen. A ruin, a pile of wreckage, and nothing else. In a place like this, the fire of civilization is still preserved," Sandora closed the officer platform. On the screen, "It seems that this community needs to be contacted. pl-15, stay put, we need to make direct contact with the indigenous people here."

"pl-15 understands."

The soldiers of the void reconnaissance ship No. 8355 had previously observed the indigenous people in this space. They summarized the latter's cultural form and common sense needed for daily life. My sister and I were very interested in recording them. However, Lilina, the five protoss gang members, and unscrupulous people like Miss Lin seemed to have little interest in studying other people's customs and habits. Their expressions were pleasant, and they were in groups muttering some very suspicious things. , which led me to express my sincere concerns about the quiet life of the indigenous people here that has been maintained for 700,000 years before setting off. A few minutes later, the mighty First Family of the Empire and a joint tour group from the unscrupulous organization of the Protoss left the mothership on a transport plane and headed towards the largest "ruined planet" in the inner space. Of course, in order to avoid attracting attention, Before departure, we camouflaged our spaceship: Bingtis used her bricks to knock our transport plane in all directions to make it look like it had just saved the world. I thought it was necessary for me to find time and Let’s talk about this unreliable female gangster. You see, although I can’t beat her, at least in most cases, even a person like me still occupies the moral high ground in front of her...

Soon, the panting transport plane arrived at its destination without any danger amid a dizzying turbulence: a "planet" completely composed of twisted scrap metal brackets and shapeless battleship shells. We Landed in a valley covered with a large pile of metal garbage (actually this is nonsense, because there is no inch of the planet that is not covered with metal garbage). This valley looks like it was once the psionic energy of some giant spaceship. For the amplification unit of the recharge coil, the place where the transport plane landed is exactly on the "a" symbol protruding from the ground on the central axis of the amplification unit. Compared with the small and exquisite transport plane, this symbol is as wide as a real apron. Therefore, It can be seen how huge the spacecraft parts are.

Of course, the parts of this magnificent spacecraft have now become garbage. Like many similar garbage, they are twisted and overlapped to form a continuous ravine on the land.

As soon as she got off the plane, Busujima couldn't help but vomit. She was not very used to this exciting way of landing. Also accompanying her was Yakumo Ai, who followed because of boredom. That big fox might be a memory. Recalling the experience of riding Uncle Zaku's shabby airship in the Mobrado world, I vomited and swung my tail crazily to relieve the panic. I was worried that if I did this a few more times, she would be left behind. The lifelong psychological shadow caused Yakumo Blue to have a fear of any man-made aircraft in the future...

"I probably shouldn't have smashed the spacecraft's stability system."

Bingtis scratched her hair and looked at the rear part of the transport plane that was completely deflated by her brick. That was where the vector engine that kept the transport plane's attitude stable was located. Of course, it was now where the wreckage of the vector engine was. "I forgot that we are still leading mortals..."

"Don't worry about me..." Saeko retched for a while, then stood up straight while holding her sister's shoulders, "This is... well, very exciting. Do you usually land like this?"

"You know today was an accident," I coughed awkwardly, "Fortunately you received primary physical enhancement when you entered school, otherwise it would definitely be worse than it is now."

"The data shows that there is a human settlement one kilometer ahead." Sandora looked at the surrounding environment and frowned slightly. "The atmosphere here is really uncomfortable. Let's leave first."

Everyone agreed and set off in the direction indicated by Sandora.
