Of course, Hao Ren did not forget what happened in the Rift Nebula.
More than two months ago, he and his two senior examiners—Galazol and Anthony— went to deal with the historical issues left over from Ugudora Hill, and then went to the Rift Nebula, preparing to go on the ancient road. Create an artificial stable gate on the crack of the wall of reality in order to strengthen the connection between the surface world and the dream plane, but this ambitious "opening the door plan" encountered a major setback at the beginning of the project:
The core crystal used to open the gate was impacted by the information from the dream plane, and immediately crashed after breaking away from the control of the spaceship, and fell straight into the large crack in the center of the crack nebula, and its whereabouts are still unknown.
To this day, the ancillary projects that Hao Ren and the others left near the Rift Nebula are still under construction. The restless self-discipline machines and construction units have set up huge outposts and data centers around the Rift, and There are tens of thousands of space turrets and various factories, and Ugudora Hill, which is anchored near Purgatory Planet, serves as the director station of the Rift Nebula system. In the days when Hao Ren is away, it is responsible for maintaining and advancing the magnificent space. Ongoing progress of the project.
However, there is still no news about the most important door-opening crystal, which leads to an embarrassing situation for the entire project: all its preparations are almost completed, but the body of the project is still unknown.
The only clue to the crystal was a sample of the message—at the moment when the great rift in the center of the Rift Nebula opened, Inspector Anthony Alfonso heard brief signals from the depths of the Dream Plane, which came from the Crystal From near the drop point after passing through the Wall of Reality.
In the past two months, Hao Ren has activated all his monitoring systems in the Dream Plane, from the crystal nucleus research station to the drone swarm, from the free radar station in space to the deep space detection antenna installed on the surface of the planet, Countless automatic devices are scanning the entire universe that has been discovered day after day, until now, this huge search project has finally made progress.
A remote sensing signal from the New Frontier overlapped with the information sample recorded that day, and the coincidence rate between the two was as high as 90%. After the information comparison was completed, the Crystal Nucleus Research Station immediately passed the news to Hao Ren.
On the plane of dreams, above the planet Tanagus, the crystal nucleus research station hangs in the dark space as always, staring at the vast land below like the eyes of a god, and in the background of this giant space station, the stars of the universe are still Shining brightly, those mysterious galaxies and nebulae have existed forever in the darkness, and the disasters that happened in this universe seem to have no effect on the operation of this world at all.
Hao Ren and his entire gang... Well, the team, in short, everyone came to the main control hall of the Crystal Nucleus Research Station, even the Nangong brothers and sisters who had been lazy at home for a long time, and Gun, who was about to become a useless meow—the boring days were over. It's been too long, and now something that seems to be a little interesting to talk about finally popped up, and everyone expressed that they wanted to join in the fun.
Of course, everyone's reasons are relatively high-sounding. For example, Lily's reason is to come to serve as Hao Ren's bodyguard, and the reason for leaving is that Hao Ren hasn't walked her for a long time...
The guardian giant Muru made a special trip back to the space station from the ecological monitoring base on the planet Tanagus to welcome Hao Ren. He has now fully proved his ability and reliability, so Hao Ren let the giant be completely free, and gave him some daily maintenance and recording work in the space station: the ecological reconstruction project of Tanagus is nearing completion, the guardian giant Now there is a lot of free time available, and as a demigod creature created by the goddess of creation, Muru has enough learning ability, so he quickly mastered these techniques.
Usually, he runs between the planetary ecological monitoring base and the space station, but now, he replaces the task of explaining the host of the space station.
"The coordinates from the listening station are a barren area 2.2 billion light-years away from here," Mulu turned on his recorder, "I have been paying attention to the intelligence of that rift these days... You see, in this place .”
What is displayed on the recorder is a star map. According to the marks on the star map, it can be seen that this is a "pre-scan map" with an accuracy lower than the standard value, and the galaxies on the edge have not been corrected for starlight—obviously, This star map comes from the edge of the drone swarm's detection area. A listening station that has just turned on found this place at the boundary of the measurable universe. It has not had time to conduct a further detailed scan of deep space.
Hao Ren frowned: "... this location doesn't seem to be on the expansion route of the drone swarm."
"Yes, we almost missed this landmark," this time it was an ever-changing AI face floating not far away, and the cluster consciousness of the drone swarm replied, "The original expansion direction of the drone swarm is the same as This area passed by, but under your command, we began to proliferate towards the ancient dark areas of the universe, and the vanguard lair partly changed the detection direction, and this area fell on our new detection route. This star area is quite old , all starlight has a history of at least 20 billion years, most of the interstellar dust has entered a cooling cycle, and the number of new stars under a billion years old accounts for less than 3% of the total number of stars."
Hao Ren looked at the star map carefully, and suddenly felt a little strange: "Where is the crack? It doesn't seem to be marked on the star map?"
"There is no gap," the cluster consciousness gave a surprising answer, "In fact, we found nothing there."
Hao Ren raised his eyebrows: "Didn't find anything?"
Muru nodded: "I was a little surprised at the beginning, but after comparing the data sent by several monitoring stations at the outpost of the fleet, it was finally confirmed that there is no problem with the radar. In the area where the sample signal and the feedback signal overlap, there is a celestial vacuum Take, let alone the crack in the wall of reality, where you can't even see a cloud of space dust."
The giant zoomed in on the star map while talking, and Hao Ren saw the specially marked area at a glance.
It is located at the junction of two ancient galaxies, an unusually abrupt dark area, where it is empty, and within a span of 10,000 light-years, the vacuum of matter covers everything.
Y'zaks bent down in front of the star map, with a solemn expression on his face: "...it's not nothing, there's a blank space here."
What the old devil said sounded a bit weird at first, but everyone at the scene except the cat and dog fish (also known as the Hao family's three idiots) was a quick-witted generation, and soon everyone knew what this sentence meant.
At the confluence of two ancient galaxies that are gradually merging, "the void" is the most striking "thing" in itself. It should be full of turbulent celestial dust and newborn stars from dying nebulae, but in any case, a vacuum region spanning tens of thousands of light-years is impossible in itself.
"There must be something there, it's blocking the radar's line of sight." Vivian whispered.
"Is there something that can interfere with the surveillance system of the drone swarm?" Nangong Wuyue felt incredible. She had a heartfelt admiration for Hao Ren's pile of high-tech gadgets. The sea monster girl never thought about those things that would destroy the world. The local high-end goods actually have time to fail.
"The drone swarm is only using the civilian version of the detectors," the data terminal floated out and interjected, "Of course, even the civilian version can surpass the technology of most mortal civilizations, but they are still not omnipotent, at least this one." The relics of the creation goddess of the universe and the technology of the guardians may affect the judgment of the fleet."
Hao Ren thought for a while, then connected to his ship's wife: "Nolan, get ready to set sail, I'll go over and see the situation myself."
Nolan's holographic image immediately appeared in front of the crystal pinnacle of the space station host: "Oh, I got it—my stomach is a bit uncomfortable. I can set off after I reset the energy lattice! Five minutes at most!"
Hao Ren hummed, and then heard a popping sound coming from below. When he lowered his head, he saw Doudou happily bouncing around his feet, and occasionally exerting force on his feet. Bounce a few times.
He hesitated whether to take the baby fish to that "vacuum area", and finally, he decided to take the little guy.
There is a reason for this: if Raven 12345’s previous speculation is correct, the opening of the Wall of Reality on the Dream Plane side should lead to a relic of the Creation Goddess, and that weird “vacuum area” seems to prove this point , and Doudou has been proven to have a great influence on the source blood, so according to the level of life, she may also have some subtle "resonance" with other creations of the goddess of creation.
When operating in the dream plane, taking this little guy with you may discover some small details that are usually overlooked unintentionally.
Of course, in this process, we must always pay attention not to let the baby fish die...
Hao Ren's gaze turned to the other side: Lily was holding a canning jar in her hand, and the little weak chicken was holding a bunch of old newspapers in the canning jar and tearing it enthusiastically.
He decided to bring this little guy with him, anyway, they are somewhat related to the Goddess of Creation, and more importantly—if there is really the power left by the Goddess of Creation there, then an evil body meeting the goddess's original divine power will what happened
After being irradiated by Vivienne's moonlight (improved version), the little weak chicken has already shown some rational tendencies, so if she comes into contact with a higher level of primitive divine power, is it possible for the evil body to be completely "normalized"? (to be continued~^~)
