Chapter 1642 This Place Is Not Dark at All
The energy turbulence caused by forcibly crossing time and space finally gradually subsided, and the various sets of sensors on the Giant Turtle Yantai began to restart according to the programmed settings. As the external monitors resumed work, the scene outside the spacecraft was also presented to everyone. .
Hao Ren ordered Nolan to switch to viewing mode, so half of the wall on the bridge was instantly covered by the real-time video. This scene was like the spacecraft suddenly becoming transparent, and on the real-time video, everyone saw a clear A bright clear sky and a sea of clouds in the distance.
The spaceship seemed to be floating high in the sky.
Nolan adjusted the angle of the external monitor to show the situation below the spacecraft. Hao Ren looked down and saw mountains rolling down the land below. There was a narrow strip between the two mountains covered with white snow. The plain is dotted with rivers and lakes, and some urban and rural-like buildings are scattered on the plain, as if the green carpet is dotted with colorful gems.
"It's really an...unexpected 'dark realm'..." Looking at this vibrant and peaceful world (at least on the surface it looks like this), everyone was speechless for a long time, and in the end it was Vivian. The silence was broken by saying, "Are we really not in the wrong place?"
In fact, Hao Ren was also thinking about this question at this time: Maybe Raven 12345's hand slipped when he was tossing the beacon, and he got the coordinates of an unknown world to fool people, right? Could this be the dark realm? !
How did the Dark Realm come about? That is the result of the great explosion in the Kingdom of God! The entire founding star and all the divine power of the Creation Goddess were compressed together and then exploded, directly tearing apart the order structure of the universe, throwing an entire galaxy out of the order world, and being stuck in the gap between the world and the void. Entering the realm of darkness, how could such a birth process that sounds like it requires one's life to leave behind such a peaceful world that looks like a paradise? In fact, under an impact of that scale, even stars would be torn into pieces, let alone ecosystems. Originally, Hao Ren's best expectation for this place was a fragmented cosmic space with various large and small star debris floating in the space. Dangerous space cracks and energy turbulence were blocked between the star debris. Nolan's After the female driver flew in, she had to struggle for two hours to find a parking space - this is the dark realm!
However, the data will not lie, and Nolan quickly completed the analysis of the beacon: "There is no mistake, this is indeed the dark realm - we are already at the edge of the order area of the dream plane, and our current location is the world barrier and In the 'chaos zone' at the junction of the void, the remaining protective power of the barrier prevents this area from being swallowed up by the void, but a strong void signal can still be detected, and this signal is unmistakable."
"Damn, this isn't dark at all..." Hao Ren muttered, "Thankfully I even replenished the arsenal."
Lily also muttered: "I thought my battle armor would come in handy."
"Don't let your minds be filled with violent thoughts. There are still two legions outside waiting for us to send signals," Nolan said helplessly, "Are we still using broadcast beacons now? The plan is to find a safe place After settling down and settling down, we started broadcasting signals, and now... this place is really safer than imagined."
Hao Ren frowned and glanced at the scene outside. Some intuition made him feel that something was wrong with this seemingly lively place. When he heard Nolan's words, he shook his head slightly: "No, don't broadcast it yet. Signal... The situation is different from expected. We need to collect some intelligence before taking the next step. Nolan, first increase the altitude. Let's go into the universe to see what is going on in this place - by the way, observe this planet under our feet. In the panoramic view of the planet, we may be able to find some traces left behind when the Kingdom of God collapsed.”
Nolan nodded: "Nolan understands and starts climbing. The target is outer space."
The conventional propulsion engine of the Giant Turtle Yantai was activated, and the stealth spacecraft began to slowly increase its altitude and head out of the atmosphere. However, Nolan suddenly stopped after continuing to climb for a certain distance.
"Unable to continue climbing," the face of the ship girl was full of confusion, "It was blocked by some abnormal phenomenon... Strange, I have obviously increased the engine thrust, but the altitude of the spacecraft has not actually changed... We are still there In the atmosphere!”
"There's no way to escape the atmosphere?!" Hao Ren's eyes widened, and a thought flashed through his mind: Sure enough, this seemingly vibrant world is very abnormal!
Nolan had quickly turned on various sensors at this time: "Comprehensive environmental analysis is in progress... Strangely, the data returned by the sensors is that everything is normal, there is no abnormal space folding, no gravitational interference, and no camouflage signals. In short, there is nothing wrong." There is no place like this, but we just can’t get out of the atmosphere – after flying to a certain altitude, the value of ‘altitude’ seems to be locked!”
This sudden abnormal situation woke everyone up from their short-term comfortable state of mind. They realized that this place was indeed hiding something strange. The expressions on everyone's faces became serious. Yzaks asked one of the most critical questions. Question: "Does the jump drive still work?"
"I try to activate it," Nolan said quickly, "...the jump engine can still be activated, and the beacon is still working normally, and there is no problem in reversely analyzing the data of the starting coordinates. As of now, it seems that it should be It works, but I can’t guarantee that there will be no problems after actually activating the jump. Do you want to try to get out of here?"
"Don't start the jump yet, unless you really encounter a situation where you have to run away," Hao Ren stopped Nolan from trying further. "There are weird things in this world. Don't do it until we understand what is stopping us from leaving." More stimulation here. Nolan, descend, let's go to the surface."
Since there is no way to leave the atmosphere from above, we have to find a way from the surface. It is always right to collect intelligence at this time.
The spacecraft lowered its altitude again. As the altitude continued to decrease, the cluster of man-made buildings on the narrow plain became increasingly clear, and soon it reached the point where the naked eye could clearly see the details. In some buildings with distinctive features, Hao Ren saw some shadows of the medieval era: large houses built with rocks and some kind of primitive concrete, with complicated roofs and various exterior decorations that were more decorative than practical. Small houses are mostly a mixed structure of wood and stone, usually no more than two stories. The structure of most settlements is simple and lacks planning. It is centered on a few large buildings and squares, surrounded by a circle of low civilian areas, and outside are fields or pastures. Judging from the existing characteristics, the level of development of this world will probably not exceed that of the late Middle Ages on Earth.
But considering the extraordinary power that may exist here, we should not make too rash judgments.
To collect information about this world, of course, it is indispensable to deal with the aborigines here - although a paradise suddenly pops up in a place like the "Dark Realm", and the fact that there are aborigines in the paradise is enough. People are on alert, but since all this is before their eyes, they cannot ignore it. Hao Ren ordered Nolan to approach the human settlement located on the edge of the plain and backed by the mountains (it is the largest city on the plain), and then released the probe.
The scene on the streets of the local city was quickly transmitted to the holographic projection on the bridge.
Lily stared at it with her ears open and sighed: "This is really a lively place... there are a lot of people on the street."
"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that this is actually the 'Dark Realm'?" Nangong Sanba shook his head, "You can't see the scene after the explosion of the Kingdom of God at all. Could it be that this is actually the Kingdom of God that fell into the Dark Realm? A remote planet that was innocently involved in the process? Because it was just involved, it didn't suffer much damage?"
"The power of the explosion in the Kingdom of God is extraordinary. Even if it is just involved, it is impossible to be safe. For a fragile ecosystem, even a deviation of two or three degrees from the angle of the star's illumination is enough to cause mass extinction," Hao Ren shook his head. At the same time, he was paying attention to the behavior and clothing style of the local residents. "Interesting... they are not all human beings, there are all races."
"It seems I don't have to hide my ears and tail!" Lily suddenly happily pointed at the holographic projection, "Look, a werewolf!"
On the pictures returned by the probe, you can see all kinds of passers-by walking through the streets and alleys. Among them are not only the most common humans, but also other races with distinctive alien characteristics. The werewolves Lily saw were just One of them, Vivian, soon discovered more "alien": "There are also lizard-like creatures. Is this... a cat-man? So you can even roll out and get out freely."
"Not only is there a stable planet with an ecosystem - assuming it's a planet for now, but this place is also a 'paradise' where multiple races coexist?" Hao Ren showed an interested expression, "Okay, although this place is a bit weird, But it’s better than plunging headlong into the energy storm of the Kingdom of Broken God. Nolan, arrange to produce a batch of local clothes, and we are ready to land.”
The ship girl nodded: "Understood, but what will I do next?"
"You stay invisible and follow us at high altitude, acting as our support officer," Hao Ren said, "But don't get too close - this is a place related to the Goddess of Creation after all. If any relics of the gods react to you, It would be difficult to handle.”
"clear."
After some preparations, Hao Ren and his party put on local clothes and finally stepped into this mysterious and strange "paradise".
Considering that it was difficult for the sudden appearance of unfamiliar faces to blend into the local environment without any violation, the group did not choose clothing that looked like the daily clothing of residents. Instead, they chose some kind of clothing after using probes to analyze a large number of samples. Similar to the "traveler" outfit. Such travelers are not uncommon in the local area. Judging from some of their words and deeds, this should be a special group similar to mercenaries or travelers (adventurers). If this identity is used as a cover, the next actions may be easier. .
