Zhou Ming stood in front of the mirror, staring at himself in the mirror quietly.
Such a clear and real mirror image - if he hadn't reached out and touched a cold and hard surface, he would even doubt whether the person standing opposite him was really "another self".
After a long time, he withdrew his gaze from the mirror and looked at the vast darkness around him.
How big is this space? If we continue to walk outward, can we reach infinity? What is the nature of this dark space? Why does it appear here, behind the Lost Home Gate? What is the connection between the Lost Home Gate in the subspace and the Lost Home Gate in the real world? And most importantly...
What are those words emerging in the darkness
Zhou Ming moved away from the mirror, and the mirror quietly disappeared as he left. The figure in the mirror also disappeared into the darkness. As he walked, more pale words emerged in the darkness - describing everything related to him.
Like an extremely detailed personal file... a personal file that is registered in some crucial database, but no one knows what use it will be used for.
Zhou Ming felt that his associative ability was not enough - he tried to find a reasonable reason to explain everything he saw, but found that no matter how he reasoned, in the end it looked like a bunch of pure fantasy.
He even began to think that there was a "Doomsday Shelter Plan" and that he was the one hiding in the shelter, but he was completely unaware of it. The bachelor apartment was not his refuge, and the words that emerged in the dark space were his registration documents after entering the shelter...
In the darkness, his thoughts spread out uncontrollably, but after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly gathered all his random thoughts.
Duncan was suddenly stunned.
He went back faster than he came. It didn't take him long to cross the darkness and return to the "Gate of the Lost Homelander" leading to the Lost Homeland.
After crossing the door, he confirmed that the other side was not dark, but his bachelor apartment - everything in the room. After that, he left the captain's room with the lantern without waiting for the goat head to speak, and then almost rushed through the decks and cabins, and went straight to the bottom of the Lost Hometown.
For the first time in his life, he felt a sense of security when he saw the goat's head was still on the table.
Then he returned to the ship and this time opened the door of the captain's room.
There are not many doors on the Homelander, but only three of them are ordinary. The first is the "Door of the Homelander", the second is the clear wooden door leading to the bottom hold deep in the cabin, which is marked with the sign "The Last Door", and the third is the door standing in the middle of the bottom of the cabin. It connects the subspace and the real dimension, and perhaps it cannot be called the "Subspace Door".
If you want to return to the real dimension from this "Broken Homelander" which is suspected to be located in the subspace, you only need to use the Homelander's Gate as a transit
Finally, even those chaotic jumping lines and light spots finally disappeared, and nothing new appeared. With a vague answer in mind, Duncan breathed a sigh of relief and then stepped forward to push open the door of the captain's room.
After a full half minute, the guy suddenly made a snapping sound, and his neck seemed to be broken: "Ship...Ship...Captain?! You said you..."
He grunted heavily.
"￥#% of the situation&… %is @#?"
I raised my head and looked into the goat head's black eyes. I was a little more determined before I spoke: "Don't be scared when I tell you."
"Ah, Captain! You're finally back!" The goat-headed man immediately made an exaggerated and attentive voice, as noisy as ever. "You suddenly left the ship completely, I was really shocked! When you walk in the spirit world, at least you will leave your body here! But just now all your breath disappeared... And now you are back from the deck? Where did you go
I returned to the real dimension.
Putting his hand on the door, the solid texture gave Zhou Ming, who had just been wandering in the darkness for a long time, an inexplicable sense of security.
He took a deep breath and stepped through the door.
As soon as the text appeared disordered, the sentences became weird and incomprehensible, and the originally coherent record became something that was unreadable.
He has not lost his mind and has not become addicted to the process of exploring the unknown.
Duncan's eyes changed slightly in an instant.
He turned around. The door he came from was almost left with only a dim light, but it still stood quietly in the darkness. "Ah, you, your first mate is not only loyal and cowardly, but also cowardly and loyal..."
He walked away, cautiously and carefully away from the door.
He passed through the "last door" and came to the shattered cabin.
The goat-head turned his head immediately after hearing the noise coming from the door, and there was a creaking sound from the neck of the wood. "Name
Now it seems that that kind of "consistency" may have marked the real "exit" from the very beginning!
What emerged from the darkness were no longer words and symbols, but a series of twisted and jumping lines, chaotic and restless light spots, and even various wavy projections that almost followed geometric laws.
Zhou Ming stopped immediately.
He walked more and more cautiously, and each step he took only moved a dozen centimeters forward.
On the "Broken Homelander", the marks on the door frames of both the "last door" leading to the bottom cabin and the "warp door" have been erased. Only the "Wanderer's Door" in front of the captain's room remains exactly the same, both in the real dimension and in the warp.
He turned around thoughtfully and saw that he was standing in front of the captain's room, with the Door of the Lost Homeland standing quietly in the sunlight, and a few words on the door frame shining on the door frame.
The familiar chart room, the familiar exquisite furnishings, the table, and the familiar goat head on the table
"Duncan Abnomal, it's you, you're back," Duncan said immediately. He had long guessed that the other party would confirm with him - the goat head could sense whether he had left the Lost Homeland, and might even sense some changes in him to a certain extent. Its "name confirmation" seemed a bit arbitrary on the surface, but there seemed to be a pattern in it. "You went to a very far place."
The door was tightly closed, without any gap. "I went to the subspace."
There were no more clues there, only phantoms that could shake his mind - whether there really was a huge secret hidden in that dark space, or it was just another conspiracy and temptation of the subspace to him, he should not waste time there and dwell on it.
The safest "subspace door" stood quietly in the center of the cabin.
While Zhou Ming was silently memorizing these words, he turned back from time to time to confirm the distance between himself and the door and to confirm whether he had lost his way in the darkness.
The cool sea breeze blew towards him, and the sudden appearance of the sky made Duncan a little uncomfortable for a moment. The slight shaking under his feet and the sound of the waves hitting his ears were delayed for a few tenths of a second before appearing in his perception - perhaps it was because he stayed in a noisy place for too long, and the sound of the waves hitting suddenly seemed like thunder.
“￥@* is about 355 to *&a;, and there may be &a.…%&a.
Zhou Ming's heart moved, but he did not stop moving forward. He just walked more carefully. As he continued to walk towards the edge of darkness, more words emerged in the darkness.
Suddenly, he noticed that the words emerging under his feet had changed.
He checked his surroundings and saw the unfamiliar Lost Homeland, the unfamiliar Boundless Ocean, and the sun hanging in the sky, bounded by double runes.
It was getting weirder and weirder. It was getting more and more chaotic, and the frequency of the chaos was increasing exponentially. He could still see a few meaningful words in each sentence, but soon it reached the point where a single word appeared in several sentences. Later on, he couldn't even see these "garbled codes".
… Enough time has been wasted.
Duncan's mind instantly became active
Zhou Ming decisively turned around and walked back - no matter what was in the depths of the darkness, the moment the information appearing under his feet reached an end, he knew that he could not go any further.
Goat Head: “…?!
More text appeared under my feet. The content was not much different from before, but it was more detailed and formal, and it looked more and more like a registration document used in formal occasions.
"I went to the subspace and got some good results." Duncan said as he walked into the captain's room and picked up the lantern on the shelf next to him. Wait a moment.
Zhou Ming took a deep breath, letting his mind gradually calm down, and then decided to conduct one last test and exploration of this dark space before leaving.
All the smell was gone? Completely off the ship
This unexpected situation made him a little confused, because a second before he stepped through the gate in the darkness, he was still thinking about how to continue exploring on the "Broken Lost Homeland" to find a way to return, but he didn't expect that after crossing the gate here, he would go straight back to reality... What is the pattern in between
The gaps between the bottom hulls still showed this bright mixture. Not many details could be seen within the limited field of vision. One could only see chaotic turbulence of light and shadow and momentary flashes jumping and flowing in the darkness.
As he walked forward, chaotic lights and shadows that were difficult for mortal minds to understand emerged in the darkness, as if some indescribable reflections at the edge of the universe transformed into a road extending forward under his feet.
It turned out that I entered this place that seemed to be the subspace with my real body, and not the "projection of consciousness" as I thought!
