Winder took the juice handed over by Pam with helplessness on his face, and started playing "Honkai Impact 3rd". You know what, the feeling of playing this "Star Railway" version of "Honkai Impact 3rd" is indeed different from the real world... If you wear a virtual reality device, can you play Kiana from a first-person perspective
With Pam's bewildered expression on her face, the entire warehouse began to become unusually quiet.
Pam looked at everyone playing with a cell phone in their hands, then looked at her own round little hands that couldn't even hold a cell phone...
Where does this inexplicable feeling of being abandoned come from
Chapter 12 Conjugated Tamagotchi ()
After the first jump is completed, the train adjusts its posture and starts the second jump. It will stop jumping when it has traveled about one-third of the distance on the star track, and then use the speed of leaving the star track to move in the "abnormal" direction for about twelve hours.
The "anomaly" is very close to the star track, with a minimum distance of a few thousand miles. Because of this, if the train stops at the shortest distance, it will miss the "anomaly" by a long way because it will not have time to "brake". Therefore, the train must detach from the star track in advance and slightly deflect the angle so that it can directly enter the "anomaly". This is what is often said as "a small error can lead to a big mistake", but this time the "small error" is intentional.
Winder looked at the group of people who were already addicted to the "new game", especially Walter who took out the virtual reality device and put it on his head. His brows were furrowed so much that he could pinch a fly to death...
It seemed that the things in the game were very similar to the world in his memory, and a virtual reality device was even used... Did he want to take a closer look at the details in the game
"Alas... It's hard to imagine that after Uncle Yang sees the world in his memory twelve hours later... Will he think he has fallen into Inception?"
At first I was in the game, but when I got there I found that it was exactly the same as in the game. It was a world I was familiar with, but it was not the timeline I was familiar with...
Wend suddenly became afraid that Uncle Yang would not be able to bear the stimulation and would go crazy and doubt his life...
Well, with Uncle Yang’s steady personality, he probably wouldn’t do that directly. After all, he is already a reliable adult. But after arriving in the collapsed world... I’m afraid he will be very helpless, right
"Hmm... My eyes are a little sore... Wend~ I'm hungry~"
Pulling the virtual reality device off her head, March touched her empty stomach, and decisively acted coquettishly to Winder, who was standing aside doing nothing, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Well, what do you want to eat?"
Nodding at March, Winder replied.
"Hmm... let me think about it."
Sanyue raised her head and looked at the ceiling. What should she eat
"Indeed, this game is quite interesting. Is the Himeko in it actually a teacher? So this is how I become a teacher. I feel that if I don't engage in [development] in the future... finding a small planet, or returning to my hometown to be a teacher would also be a good choice."
Ji Zi took off the virtual reality device and smiled.
"This game is really good. Mei in it... her moves seem a little immature, but she already has the demeanor of a master."
Jingliu also nodded.
"… "
Dan Heng took off the VR device expressionlessly. How did that guy find his friend? And the server had just been opened, how come he had an S-level Valkyrie? Or was it Kiana's S-level armor, called Moonlight
It's boring to start fighting over this kind of game.
Dan Heng said that the blade was like a ghost that lingered around! So he simply charged 50,000 credit points in Honkai Impact 3rd, at least to draw an S-level Valkyrie first.
“This game is really exciting in terms of combat, and there are many mini-games, and there is also a very cute dormitory function... These girls are also so cute.”
Tingyun also likes this game very much. Although she has never played games much, she thinks this is a game that she can play for a long time.
"Forehead… "
Winder looked at the people who had already started discussing with each other, and Walter who had just taken off the virtual reality device and had a gloomy face. He suddenly felt that he liked playing this game... It didn't seem like a good thing...
As one of the only two people who knew what was going to happen next, Walter looked at the people who were discussing this on the side, his eyes were very complicated, and there was some indescribable feeling.
Winder agrees with this. The more laughter there is in the beginning, the more damage there will be in the end... When it comes to Chapter 9...
Should he prepare some delicious desserts in advance to comfort their hurt hearts
Forget it, let's just get there first. When Winder thought about the fact that both sides would become each other's electronic pets in their phones, he felt a headache.
What is this? A conjugated pet
He pulled up Xing, who was still addicted to the game, and asked her to help him.
After all, having a good meal before every new pioneering journey seemed to have become a custom on the train. Although it started after he got on the train, it was finally a formally established custom.
… … …
After five dishes and three rounds of juice, and a short rest, the train finally arrived at its destination.
"Is this... the 'anomaly'? It doesn't look right.
March unconsciously rubbed her arms which were covered with goose bumps without her knowing when, and looked very uncomfortable.
After the train entered the nearby star field, the closer it got to the anomaly, the dimmer the light around it became. The content of dark matter in the universe quietly increased, and a very faint light appeared right in front of the train.
"There seems to be something ahead, Pam, can you slow down the train? Try not to come into contact with that thing, and be prepared to speed up and evacuate at any time."
Ji Zi instructed Pam who was standing beside her.
"Don't worry, passenger Himeko! These are a piece of cake for Pam!"
Pam patted her chest and then trotted out of the observation car.
"All [Anonymous Guests], be prepared. What we are about to encounter may be even more unknown than what we encountered in Punklod. After all, an "abnormal point" is always made up of various factors. It is not ruled out that we will need to prepare to fight outside the train later.
Ji Zi said to everyone with a very serious expression that her railgun had been synchronized to the track of the train. If there was any danger, her railgun would eliminate the danger in advance.
As the speed of the train slowly decreased, the scenery around the train changed again. Purple streams of light swayed out from the front of the train, floating in the universe like infinitely long purple ribbons.
Before their eyes, a huge spherical object appeared in everyone's sight. It seemed as if it contained another universe. Under the pitch-black object, countless points of light were flashing, symbolizing the light of perseverance...
Chapter 13: Through the Wormhole
"This is… "
Tingyun and Jingliu, who had experienced all kinds of things with Winder on Punklod, recognized the celestial body in front of them at a glance. It was exactly the same as the wormhole they had encountered inside the legendary tower before, but from the appearance, it was much larger than the one they had encountered before.
"Is this the wormhole you mentioned before? How could this celestial body, which has never been publicly discovered in the real world, suddenly appear here?"
Ji Zi frowned, looking puzzled.
Even in the Genius Club, the geniuses' understanding of wormholes is still theoretical. Theoretically, wormholes do exist, but even if the scale is set on the universe, people have never seen a real "wormhole"...
"this… "
Looking at the wormhole in front of him, Walter looked a little thoughtful.
Those purple lights always reminded him of something bad. Could it be that he was a little obsessed with playing games? Where did so many coincidences come from...
However, the universe is so vast that everything has a certain possibility. It is just a simple probability problem. As long as it is not absolutely zero, it is possible...
"Yes, this wormhole is very similar to the one we encountered before, but its diameter is much larger than the previous one."
Jingliu nodded in confirmation, and his eyes couldn't help but fall on Winder who was standing beside him.
After all, when Wind entered the wormhole, he seemed like a completely different person, but he was still Wind... It's just that no one knows how long he stayed on the other side of the wormhole. According to outside observations, Wind was in there for less than two seconds...
"Let Pam park the train nearby. We will send someone to go through the wormhole first. This won't be too dangerous."
Ji Zi said to Walter beside her.
It is always right to be cautious when facing unknown things. Moreover, for celestial bodies that only exist in theory in the scientific community, no one knows whether experience will have a positive effect. If they blindly drive the train through the wormhole, the risk is too great and they cannot bear the consequences.
After all... there is only this one train left that can travel along the star track. If the Star Train disappears, then the "star track" in the universe will be cut off sooner or later, and the universe will return to its previous state of inconvenient transportation... Unless a new [Pioneering Star God] appears, or another Star Train appears from that unknown planet... or people successfully develop point-to-point jump technology.
Star Track minimizes the risks of interstellar travel and also minimizes the cost of interstellar travel. The Star Train cannot take this risk.
"I'll send a drone in to test it first. If there's no major problem, we'll send someone over and then let the train pass."
Everyone had no doubt about Ji Zi's proposal. After all, the Star Train was worthy of such attention.
Seeing everyone having no doubts, Ji Zi nodded with satisfaction, and then started the drone deployed on the train.
Just in case, Ji Zi also got rid of Dan Heng and asked him to tie a connecting rope on the drone. This connecting rope is bidirectional. If there is any problem on the drone side, it can be pulled back through this connecting rope. If there is a reverse force on the wormhole side, the connecting rope can be cut off by itself.
After everything was prepared, Ji Zi started to manually control the drone.
In the silent and still space, the drone adapted to the working environment of outer space slowly moves towards the wormhole ahead...
Ten meters... Eight meters... Five meters...
As the drone approaches the wormhole, "snow" begins to appear on the surveillance camera's screen, which is caused by the influence of the wormhole's gravity.
The closer the drone got to the wormhole, the more its silhouette became bent and stretched in the eyes of everyone.
"Access to the wormhole."
The drone began to pass through the surface of the wormhole. At this point, everything was normal. The drone's communication was interrupted on the other side of the wormhole. There was no gravitational pull, and the drone was still within the observable range.
At Ji Zi's signal, Dan Heng began to operate the connecting rope, trying to drag the drone from the other side.
The connecting ropes on the direct train began to shrink, and the drone was slowly pulled out of the wormhole.
"The drone has reconnected to the network. We are checking the drone's information records to verify that the time flow rate inside and outside the wormhole is one to one."
Jizi informed everyone of the information she had just obtained.
"It looks very stable, but in order to prevent other accidents, we still need to go and take a look in person."
"I'll go."
Winder stepped forward first.
"I have experience traveling through wormholes."
"Well, Wend is indeed the best candidate, so... I'll leave it to you."
Ji Zi nodded solemnly to Winder.
"Um."
After putting on the life-support protective suit for outside space, Winder walked out of the train with a watch, approached the wormhole, and then entered.
Ten minutes later, Winder came out of the wormhole and shared his experience with everyone with a shocked look on his face.
"Look, the speed of time on both sides is the same."
Winder put the watch on the table.
"It seems that this wormhole is indeed safe. Notify Pam and drive the train in."
Walter looked at Winder, who was not affected at all, and nodded slowly. For some reason, a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in his heart.
This... could this be his home
"Received! The train is starting to move! Passengers, please hold on tight! We are about to enter the [tunnel]!"
Pam's voice came from the train's broadcast, and the train began to move slowly towards the wormhole ahead... It was about to pass through the wormhole!
“Is this a place I’m familiar with?”
Walter pushed his glasses and muttered to himself.
… … …
"Your Excellency, we still have no idea about the celestial body that suddenly appeared near Mars. Through telescope surveys, it seems more like a wormhole... But we have never observed a wormhole on a cosmic scale. It..."
The researcher was about to continue explaining something to Otto, but was stopped by Otto who gently raised his hand.
"I understand. You have worked hard during this period. Let's stop here for this project. I will let Amber inform you of the next matters later."
The researcher opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but seeing Otto's nonchalant look, he had no choice but to shut his mouth and walked out of the bishop's office in dismay.
"They are coming, I am sure it is them... No, my old friend, I can't be wrong... Of course, I believe they will help us? Isn't it?... Haha, if he wants to."
In the office, Otto was talking to himself, looking very creepy.
Chapter 14 Preparations before Landing
"This is... ... "
Staring out the porthole, Walter looked at the familiar celestial body in front of him and couldn't help muttering to himself
"Mars... ... "
Reading these two words silently, Walter was very uneasy at the moment.
He returned to the solar system? Did he really return to the solar system? From shock to doubt, and then to certainty, he was indeed back, but was this his home
Walter was not sure. Maybe it was just a galaxy similar to the solar system, or a parallel solar system, like a world bubble...
