Chapter 154 The vortex of order, the shock inside the starship
"Order Vortex?! Number?!"
Hearing these words, the fat captain flashed up next to the first mate, slapped him away, and stared at the light screen with dozens of eyes wide open.
"It's really that thing! It is said that after gathering all the components, the order vortex of [Key to the Sky] can be condensed!"
He murmured excitedly: "That key... can allow the holder to enter the trial of the gods and make any wish!"
After thoroughly confirming that the information was correct, the fat captain's face trembled and he shouted ecstatically, "I'm going to be prosperous! What's wrong with the nobility? I have a chance to become a royal family this time!"
The first mate got up from the ground and said with a confused look on his face: "The Whirlpool of Order? Didn't that thing disappear with the Ninth Prince when the mother planet was in civil strife?"
"The Key to Heaven... there is such a legend, but I remember that you can only make a wish by passing the test of God, right?"
The fat captain calmed down a little and said: "You are right, that God's Trial Ground is hidden in a corner of the vast galaxy. As long as you clear the level, you can make a wish! Any wish!
And strictly speaking, the Ninth Prince and his ship, which was rumored to carry the Order Vortex component, disappeared 310 cold star weeks ago." (p: 1 Cold Star Week = 3. Blue Star Year, see 106 for details.
Chapter)
He looked at the blue planet in the light screen and said solemnly: "If I guessed correctly, the Ninth Prince crashed on this planet back then."
After saying that, the fat captain's face became solemn, he turned his big head and gave stern instructions to the first mate:
"Hurry up to the central cabin and launch a message shuttle to the outside world... No! Launch ten message shuttles to the home planet! Record all the ship logs from the recent period, and then write the Seventh Fleet's Exploration No. 8164
The ship discovered the components of the Order Vortex in the 39.700.163 star field. Please send the main star fleet and powerful extraordinarys to this star field to recover it as soon as possible!"
The first mate nodded: "Okay, let the message shuttle leave the projection area?"
After hearing the subordinate's inquiry, the captain pondered: "Although there is no speed limit in the spirit world, the fastest submersible speed of the message shuttle in the spirit world is five times the speed of light. If you want to reach the nearest available hyperspace tunnel to this star field,
The road section will take at least six cold weeks. It’s too long and this won’t work.”
He stroked the wriggling tentacles on his face and muttered: "It may change later, so let's do this. You can set up the message shuttle to go from where we came from, through the wormhole at the edge of this star system."
"That wormhole?! Captain, are you kidding me?"
The first mate felt his tentacles explode when he heard this, and said in fear, "Have you forgotten how we escaped from there? More than a dozen starships were reduced to rubble, and we were the only one left.
Inside... there is a galactic tyrant sleeping inside. If it wakes up and runs out... there will probably not be many planets left in this entire star system! We... will die too!"
"Danger... of course I know."
The fat captain raised his hand to interrupt him, turned to look at the dark space outside the porthole, and sighed, "That giant beast just turned over and wiped out our entire fleet. I even suspect that the Ninth Prince was killed because of it. Crashed."
He suddenly turned his head and looked at the first officer sternly, and said in a deep voice: "That's why I want you to launch ten missiles back to the home star. As long as one of them can reach the home planet smoothly, we will be successful.
Let me ask you, would you rather live a mediocre life and eventually die in space, or would you rather take this risk and gain your life?
As long as you succeed, you can live dozens of times longer, sit on a planet with a beautiful environment, and it is completely yours. You can build your own glorious family on it and pass on your blood for a thousand or ten thousand cold star weeks. , instead of being a first mate on a damn exploration ship who is bullied by the captain every day!"
The first mate was silent and his eyes flashed violently. It was obvious that his inner activities were by no means as calm as he looked.
"Oh~" He sighed, "Okay, Captain, you have convinced me, I will just... risk my life with you!"
"Good! Beautiful!"
The fat captain immediately beamed with joy and patted the first mate's slightly thin shoulder hard, making the other party grin.
At this moment, the detector alarmed again.
[Attention! High-energy reaction detected on the surface of the star]
"Huh?!"
The captain and first mate were stunned and quickly approached the light screen.
I saw that the screen was clearly showing a ball of light expanding rapidly in the center of a vast continent.
The extremely bright edge of the light ball is like rubber, turning everything in its path into nothingness and turning it into a huge pit of scorched earth.
Not long after, after the entire continent was completely destroyed, the ball of light slowly disappeared.
And in the sky above the endless scorched earth, a figure emitting huge energy fluctuations slowly stood.
The ship detection system issues prompts in a timely manner:
[Attention! If you find an extraordinary tenth-level life form, please be vigilant]
"Super...super tenth level!"
The first mate stumbled and said, "This star field has just been upgraded not long ago. How could...a life form of this level appear?!"
The fat captain could not hide his shock, but he quickly calmed down and said: "It seems that my decision is correct, go and send the message shuttle!"
The first mate nodded and quickly turned around and flew away.
After a while, a thin crack suddenly opened on the outer edge of the black starship, and ten black shuttles, not much bigger than half a pencil, flew out.
As soon as these black shuttles entered space, they escaped into the spiritual world in the twinkling mold lake and started to submerge, flying all the way to the edge of the solar system on the 'outside' of the real starry sky.
】
They will follow a pre-designed program to enter the wormhole hidden deep in the Oort cloud, and return to their home star across a long distance along the space-time tunnel.
After a while.
"Alas~"
The fat captain looked at the 'continent' in the light screen that was completely submerged by the sea, and sighed, "The life form that destroyed the continental plate may be more than the tenth level of the extraordinary."
The first mate asked doubtfully: "Why do you say that?"
The fat captain’s dozens of eyes flickered: “After your father entrusted you to me before his death, you have been working on this ship for so many years, so you don’t know a lot of information outside the ship. p>
You know, when I was young, I worked in a starship manufacturing plant and a large space dock, so I know that when the detection system of a general spacecraft scans the level of a life form, in order not to attract the other party's attention, it usually only scans the scattered radiation of the other party.
The outer edge of the pan-energy field radiates, so the scanned data cannot be wrong, but it is generally very conservative. According to experience, the result value needs to be improved by two orders of magnitude to be closer to the other party's accurate value."
"Two orders of magnitude?! This can easily destroy the surface of the entire planet!"
The first mate was shocked and said, "Isn't that... an overlord-level life form!! Oh, I understand. Fortunately, you have to drive the spacecraft so far. If we were discovered by that life form, it would be over. You are so vigilant."<
/p>
The fat captain nodded and said with a proud smile: "Hahaha, if I hadn't been vigilant enough, I would have died in that little corner of the galaxy long ago..."
Suddenly!
Buzz——
A huge and nihilistic force emerged out of thin air from every corner of the ship, locking the entire ship and all life forms in the cabin from the subatomic level.
The minds of the fat captain and the first mate were completely 'frozen' at this moment.
