Buzz!
At the moment when Xiao was about to be swallowed, a circle of ripples suddenly appeared around him. This ripple crossed Xiao's body like lightning on the water's surface, echoing in the endless nothingness.
laugh…
The moment the ripples reverberated, the figure in front of Xiao also disappeared at the same time. Xiao only felt a pair of strong hands grabbing his shoulders and lifting him up!
"Huh, huh..."
Xiao opened his eyes in shock, with cold sweat falling like rain all over his body.
"What do you see?"
Zhinao's voice asked doubtfully, and after asking several times, Xiao slowly came back to his senses.
He lay limp and said in shock, "Yes, it's my wife. She came to see me..."
"Please relax, Mr. Xiao, it was just an illusion."
Upon hearing this, Zhinao immediately spoke to comfort him, "We can prove that there was nothing in front of you just now."
"But… "
Xiao opened his mouth, and the previous scene still appeared in front of his eyes. He shuddered, and he wanted to believe what the other party said, but his premonition told him that everything just now seemed not as simple as an illusion.
"The reality anchor has been activated."
Zhinao continued, "It has the ability to stabilize reality, and it can also block the intrusion of subspace airflow."
Xiao then nodded with lingering fear.
While the two were talking, Xiao looked around again. When he saw the floor-to-ceiling windows, he found that the vines attached to the spacecraft were slowly receding.
"Those vines... are evacuating?"
Xiao was stunned for a moment, "Is it the function of the reality anchor?"
"It seems so..."
Zhinao also hesitated, and then there was a faint tremor in the entire spacecraft again, and it began to climb at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Ten kilometers per second, twenty kilometers per second, thirty kilometers per second...
Looking at the time and space outside the window that continued to sweep backwards, Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. He pushed aside the palm that was supporting him, turned and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, "Zhi Nao, you said that the outside world is a world called subspace. The world does not belong to the real universe?”
"Yes, you can think of this as a mirror world of the real universe."
Zhinao answered, but then asked again, "As you said, the spacecraft has broken out of the quagmire and restarted, so what can you see?"
"I… "
Xiao took a deep breath, and his pale pupils showed a look of ecstasy for the first time, "I saw a vast space, magnificent and twisted, full of certain laws, and seemingly illogical... It was like... Just like in a dream..."
"This place is completely different from the universe in my memory. I saw countless indescribable light balls all around... These light balls are like living creatures. They seem to want to tell us something..."
"I see... in the sky ahead, there is a majestic blood-red continent... That continent is very far away... even farther than the distance of the solar system... No!"
Xiao's eyes gradually became blank, and he suddenly frowned, with a look of surprise in his eyes, "There is more than one continent, there is another dark continent in front of us to the left... One, two, three, four..."
"Oh God, there are a total of four continents in this space! Each continent is thousands of times wider than the earth... Zhinao, you are right, my super power seems to be really born for this place. My eyes cannot see reality, but here, I can easily penetrate time and space at a micro distance of light years... "
Listening to Xiao's murmurings, Zhinao couldn't help but feel a little confused. It wasn't even sure whether all of this was Xiao's murmurings, or whether he really saw things that ordinary people couldn't see.
The spacecraft continued to accelerate, and it continued to accelerate like this for more than ten minutes. But at this moment, a flash of hesitation suddenly flashed in Xiao's eyes. He frowned and said, "Zhi Nao, let the spacecraft turn."
"What's wrong?"
Zhinao was a little confused, but because it had already received a certain order before, it actually obeyed Xiao's words directly and caused the Courageous Assault to move a few degrees to the right...
"In front of us, about tens of thousands of kilometers away, there is another sea of vines."
Xiao replied in a low voice, "If we don't turn, we will hit that group of vines in a few minutes, and then we will be entangled and trapped by these vines..."
After hearing this, Zhinao couldn't help but look towards the front of the spacecraft, but no matter how it looked, it could only see a gray and dim sky, as if the world was permanently in a twilight period.
The spacecraft continues to accelerate...
In fact, after getting out of trouble, the spacecraft can return to the real universe. However, every time it leaves subspace, the coordinates of the spacecraft need to be calculated with a complex formula. If it does not reach a certain coordinate that represents absolute safety, it will return to reality from subspace. , it is very likely that it will crash into an asteroid in the real world, causing the ship to be destroyed and everyone killed.
In addition, experiments are more important now, so the spacecraft has not left the subspace and is still approaching the coordinates where it left.
"Offset fifteen degrees to the left..."
Gradually, Xiao gradually became more proficient, like an artificial navigation system. He stared at the floor-to-ceiling windows, his eyes scanning like subspace radars, "There is a group of jellyfish-like things in front of you on the right, we have to avoid them." …”
"Avoid it! Damn it, that thing is chasing us!"
Xiao shook off the cold sweat on his forehead, "Is that thing a kind of creature? It's so weird... It's exactly like the monster in the nightmare!"
Zhinao looked in the direction Xiao described, but saw only a twisted mist-like vortex at the location Xiao described, but he didn't see anything like a jellyfish.
As the spacecraft continued to accelerate, the second half of the journey arrived almost in the blink of an eye. Watching the spacecraft gradually arrive at the coordinates, Zhi Nao finally stopped hesitating and started the jump engine again. A black bubble emerged out of thin air and instantly enveloped the entire spacecraft. !
If you look from outside the spacecraft at this time, you will find that the spacecraft seems to be swallowed by a black hole. As the black hole expands and then shrinks, it completely disappears without a trace. What disappears with it is the figure of the Courageous Assault...
Goo doo doo doo doo.
The strange sound of running water came to Xiao's ears again, and at the same time, he felt his eyes darken, and the world he could see turned into nothingness again.
Feeling this scene, for some reason, Xiao felt a sense of inexplicable loss in his heart.
However, this mood was immediately broken by the joy of life, because he still remembered the words he said before carrying out the mission. As long as he could survive this voyage mission, he would be free!
free…
Xiao murmured in a low voice. He only felt that the two people who had been guarding him before came over again. At the same time, the brain of the spacecraft also said, "Congratulations, Mr. Xiao, you have become the only surviving Del in the spacecraft." Tower-level experimenter, not only that, but you have also successfully completed the flight mission. I believe that after seeing the experimental report, the higher-ups will consider granting you your freedom."
"Wait, what did you say?"
Xiao Gang wanted to leave, but was suddenly shocked by the other party's words, "You said I am the only surviving experimenter? What do you mean?"
"That's literally what it means."
Zhinao replied calmly, "When you lost control of your emotions for the first time, the rest of the experimenters also showed signs of losing control of their emotions. You psykers are more vulnerable than ordinary people when facing the subspace. Even if I open Even though we have achieved the anchor of reality, we still haven’t saved the lives of those people.”
"Is this actually the case?"
Xiao felt sweat dripping down his back.
Before he had time to think about it, he was taken down again by two black knights.
…
"The spaceship has appeared!"
Three minutes later, Nancy's voice came from the speakers in the Mars Spire 2 base. She said in surprise, "After two hours of missing, the Courageous Assault has returned to reality and appeared in the orbit of Jupiter as promised!"
"Returned?"
Chen Chen's original solemn expression slowly recovered, "What are the casualties? Did the man named 'Xiao' survive this voyage?"
"You expected it."
Nancy was a little convinced, "As you expected, of the ten experimental personnel on the entire spacecraft, only Xiao survived. Not only that, according to Zhinao's report, Xiao also made a huge contribution to this mission!"
"it is as expected… "
Chen Chen nodded secretly. Xiao himself is a blind person, and blind people have natural advantages in subspace. This is something Chen Chen has proven long ago.
However, Xiao Ke is not only a blind man, he is also a special psychic at the visual level. This special psychic ability combined with his original identity as a blind person makes it easier for Xiao Yuan to understand the existence of subspace than ordinary psychics.
"Navigation?"
Chen Chen looked at the report sent by Nancy with a thoughtful expression. The report said that when entering the subspace, Xiao was almost like a god with help. He could easily lead the spacecraft across the subspace tide, and at the same time he could see through the hidden obstacles on the route. The subspace trap can be said to be a subspace navigator.
"Not only that, your suspicion has also been confirmed."
Nancy continued, "The reality anchor has a certain resistance to subspace. However, this kind of thing is not a protective prop after all. I am afraid it can only barely suppress the subspace airflow in the spacecraft. I think that your A black stone slab may have the real power to fight against subspace."
"Confrontation is a bit exaggerated."
Chen Chen shook his head, "Back then, I was able to break the black slate in the subspace and snatch it away from Zhao Shanhe's hands. Then naturally, the existence in the subspace can also do it. Therefore, to me, the black slate, It’s just a layer of insurance for me to enter the subspace.”
Chen Chen raised his hand, glanced at the black slate in his palm, and took it back into his body, "Inform the Courage Assault and let them return the way they came. By the way, let Xiao prepare. I want to see him in person."
"clear."
Nancy replied.
…
Mars is about 550 million kilometers away from Jupiter. If it were to fly at the speed of an ordinary spacecraft, it would take a full month. This is why the spacecraft can continue to accelerate. If the acceleration time is not enough, it will be like flying from the earth. Towards Mars—
Although the distance from Earth to Mars is only one-eighth of that from Mars to Jupiter, it still takes seven days to travel. In theory, the performance of the nuclear fusion engine can continuously accelerate the spacecraft for several years, up to one-tenth the speed of light.
In other words, the farther the distance between the two, the faster the average speed of the spacecraft will be, until it reaches one-tenth the speed of light.
After adopting the subspace jump method, it only took two hours to reach Jupiter from Mars just now. This was because the spacecraft was trapped in the subspace and was delayed. If there was no delay in the whole journey, it would only take ten minutes. arrive.
Returning this time, the Courage Assassin encountered no accidents and soon left the subspace and returned to the orbit of Mars. Xiao was then taken back to Mars.
When Xiao stepped onto the surface again, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although in the subspace, his blind eyes could see things again, it was a dangerous subspace after all, and his life was in danger at any time. Of course, he knew how to choose between regaining his sight and surviving.
At this time, he was still being carried by two black knights and walking towards an unknown location. Xiao Youxin wanted to ask, but the guy next to him was like a robot and did not respond to his inquiry the whole time.
Ding!
A ding-dong sound came from the elevator, and Xiao was helped in by two people, but as he entered, he frowned slightly.
In this elevator, he felt that the temperature of the air was much lower than the outside world. At the same time, whether it was an illusion or not, he could faintly feel the smell of sulfur.
Entering the elevator, he could feel that the confined space in the elevator might have caused the two security guards to relax their vigilance, and they both let go of their arms at the same time.
"Sir, may I ask where I am going now?"
Xiao couldn't help asking again. This was not because he was talkative, but because he had become accustomed to collecting all the information around him in various ways since he lost his sight. Only in this way could he bring a glimmer of light to the darkness that was always in front of him. sense of security.
However, he was destined to be disappointed, as the two people beside him still didn't answer.
There was only deathly silence in my ears.
Xiao licked his lips, feeling inexplicably anxious at this time.
Um? wrong…
Suddenly, Xiao was startled because he realized that he didn't hear the heartbeats of the two soldiers escorting him
Did those two people leave? However, the elevator never seemed to go down, and I didn’t feel any falling force...
Xiao's heart gradually became panicked, and he already felt something was wrong.
Subconsciously, Xiao began to retreat little by little. If this was indeed an elevator, then his action should make him touch the wall of the elevator quickly, which would give him a sense of security.
Click...
However, when he took the first step, he suddenly heard a slight friction sound, and at the same time, his heel seemed to have stepped on something.
Like a person’s thumb…
Buzz!
Xiao panicked. The next second, he only heard an unstable buzzing sound coming from above his head. He knew that was the reason why the lights above the elevator were flashing. At the same time, he also smelled the sulfur. The smell is getting stronger and stronger!
"Could it be..."
Xiao clenched his fists tightly and mustered up the courage to slowly open his eyes. Suddenly, he felt all the hairs on his body stand on end!
Because in front of him, a woman with a fist-sized penetrating wound in the middle of her cheek was standing here quietly, only half a meter away from him!
"Xiao, I don't want to lose you."
The woman's voice in my ear was like a dream, with a hint of crying, "Even if you kill me and shoot the gun from my mouth, I don't want to leave you..."
She walked forward step by step, and put her cold hands on Xiao's shoulders. At the same time, the wound in the center of her face suddenly glowed with a dazzling white light!
"Ahhhh!!!"
Xiao Jie roared from the bottom of his heart. He kept struggling, but the other party's hands were like iron clamps embedded in his shoulders, and at the same time, the other party kept coming closer to his face!
Xiao closed his eyes tightly, his mind almost collapsed, "Damn it, Tina, what on earth do you want...what on earth do you want!!!"
The face with the bloody hole completely stuck to Xiao's face. At the same time, Xiao only heard an intermittent murmur, as if from hell -
"Become one with me..."
