Chapter 610 Disintegration!

As the starship continued to move forward, the sound of "crackling" came from every part of the ship, constantly disturbing every interstellar voyage member in the ship.

Until he saw a visible crack on the metal workbench at hand, and then it was restored by the adaptive repair function of the alloy itself, Zhou Wenjie's eyes suddenly shone, and he thought of a basic rule of the world that he felt incredible when he first came to this world, but has long forgotten -

The sum of the squares of the two right-angled sides of a right triangle is equal to the 2.023th power of the hypotenuse...

How could there be such a strange number?

It doesn't conform to the beauty of mathematics at all.

He should be an integer!

He should be 2!

The universe should also be 2!

Zhou Wenjie directly found the general manager of the crew and asked to call up a data that would not be displayed in the starship monitoring -

Space curvature!

Yes, as the starship gradually moved away from the original star, the curvature of space changed slightly.

The two who realized this almost realized a fatal problem at the same time. They looked back in the direction they came from, where the starry sky was dead and empty.

"Black hole!" Zhou Wenjie said this fact with difficulty.

Everyone assumed that the planet they were on was the most normal place in the universe.

However, they never considered that their planet might be in a special star region.

There is a huge black hole in the direction of the original star, and its existence distorts the surrounding space and time, which causes the space near the black hole to bend greatly.

When gradually moving away from the black hole for a certain distance, the affected space curvature gradually returns to the level of normal flat space and time.

However... the basic structure of their starship was built based on this wrong physical rule.

When the physical rules gradually returned to normal, the starship they built using the wrong rules naturally began to disintegrate step by step from the most basic level.

When the curvature change is not so large, the starship can still rely on the self-repairing properties of its own materials to counteract this weak tear.

However, as the starship moves forward, the change in curvature gradually increases.

If they continue, before the starship reaches their destination, the self-repairing properties of the material may not be able to resist the increasing tearing, and they will completely disintegrate in this vast space!

"Quick!" The crew leader's eyes were red, and he instantly ordered in the internal voice channel, "Everyone, immediately execute the return order! Repeat it again! Everyone, immediately execute the return order!"

However... it was still a little late.

A narrow gap appeared on the hull in an instant.

The starship is really too big...

The cavity in the middle that accommodates the crew is the weakest part of the starship with the least material. This is the first place that cannot withstand the disintegration and tearing.

The unbalanced air pressure inside and outside instantly rolled out the unprepared crew members near the gap. The strengthened body would not explode and lose temperature in the space environment in the first time. The players who were rolled out even had the leisure to curiously look at the changes around them.

Countless broken things were sucked out of the starship's cabin along with themselves, and other players in the same group spewed out from the cracks like fountains.

This unprecedented magnificent landscape presents an amazing sense of broken beauty. The lonely starship flying in the empty and vast space is the only place where everyone can enter.

And now, this ship carrying the weight of life is gradually falling apart in front of their eyes...

The players who felt this new experience even shouted "Fuck" excitedly, but the sound waves in the vacuum environment cannot be transmitted, and can only be heard through bone conduction.

Just through the shape of their mouths, everyone can find that the other players who were swept out are all very excited about this.

This plot is exciting!

The next moment after the excitement, everyone realized whether the starship was attacked by some external force and damaged, but looking around, they did not find any external existence except them.

What happened?

As the body floated in the space with nowhere to borrow, the excited nerves of the players gradually calmed down.

They found a fatal problem-

How to go back?

Although their bodies have been strengthened through surgery and long-term self-improvement, and can resist the damage of the space environment to the human body for a short period of time, it does not mean that they can withstand it forever!

Losing a little blood every minute is still losing blood, and sooner or later it will all be gone.

And going back... seems to be useless?

Right in front of them, the huge gap that threw them out of the starship cabin is visibly getting bigger, and the tearing trend is gradually increasing. It seems that it will soon be completely split in two.

Can the starship that is split in two continue to run and continue to protect everyone in space? It shouldn't be possible, right?

However, a scene that made people suddenly widen their eyes happened unexpectedly in front of everyone -

The trend of the starship splitting was stopped!

An invisible film was wrapped around the broken gap at some point, and the air leaking out of the cabin, including any debris and players, was no longer sucked out into the terrifying vacuum of the universe by the terrifying suction force from the pressure difference.

That was... the terrifying fluctuations from psychic energy!

Countless players lying on the fixed facilities in the cabin stared at the transparent light curtain in front of them with a dull look. It was this barrier that seemed to have no real existence that connected the two halves of the ship that was about to break and closed the channel for leakage in and out of the cabin.

And this incredibly powerful psychic master was standing in the main control room hall.

Seeing those scattered players floating outside, Bai'e gave a gentle command: "Kuang Xin, take people to rescue them."

"Yes!"

As the voice responded, more than ten storm armors with their own power systems were instantly launched from the launch bay of the starship. After rescuing the players who were scattered and floating freely in space one by one, the ship's hull, which had been cracked a lot, slowly began to close under the action of a huge force.

"Squeak~ Squeak~"

Under the teeth-grinding sound, the hull of the starship was tightly closed again.

However, this is only an appearance. It is difficult for a hull that has been completely broken once to achieve the original adaptive repair.

What's more, the spatial curvature in the current area has not returned to the previous level. Adaptive repair can counteract a certain degree of hull tearing, but now this degree of tearing has exceeded the adaptability of the hull material.

Bai'e may not be able to take back this majestic spiritual energy for a long time.

"Send someone to repair the fracture, and continue to return at the fastest speed!"

During this long period of time, he has already reached the fourth level of psychic energy and can certainly do many things that seem incredible to ordinary people, but as his psychic energy level improves, the total amount of psychic energy that the virtual world can make up for him no longer gives him endless confidence like in the past.

Facing his current 30,000-point psychic energy limit at the fourth level, the replenishment of the virtual world has shown its decline - for example, the speed of replenishment can no longer keep up with his maximum consumption rate; for example, it can no longer be like when he first got it at the second level, dozens or hundreds of times to completely refill his exhausted psychic energy.

Of course, fortunately, the self-recovery speed after the fourth level of psychic energy is also good, and with the replenishment of the virtual world, Bai E is confident that he can maintain the current output strength and bring the entire starship back to the original star safely.

"Yes! Captain!" The head of the entire crew team, who is an aboriginal, replied seriously.

The sudden change of the starship to this extent was an unexpected change for him.

If it weren't for the reminder from the "Devil's Son" named Xu Ruoguang who was forced into the crew for unknown reasons, I'm afraid that this first starship exploring the universe would have encountered even more terrible things.

By then, I would be the sinner of the entire human race!

When the person in charge thought of this, cold sweat ran down his face, and he couldn't stop being afraid.

...

The starship's return journey could not be hidden from those keenly observant players, and they almost exploded in discussion after realizing this.

"What's wrong? Why are you running back?"

"It's not far from the target point, how long will it take to run back?"

"I'm tired of playing with these things on the ship. If I can't go to the high-dimensional space to play with demons, I don't know how I should spend my days..."

"Goodbye, boss?"

After initially stabilizing the situation, the head of the crew team also came out to explain to these "sons of demons": "Everyone, please be patient. Due to some technical errors, the starship must now return to the planet for a short rest."

"Really want to go back? Or try to rush forward? Anyway, I think it won't be much different..."

"Or can you give us some of those small escape pods and let us explore and play by ourselves?"

Looking at the aborigines' serious look, there must be more exciting plot lines waiting for them to explore in the universe. Now that they have finally reached the depths of the universe, how can they go back?

Hearing the players' demands, Bai'er's eyes flashed, and he actually felt a little moved.

Yes, the players are not afraid of death. They want to use their lives to open up a new world for themselves. How can we refuse them?

Moreover, after they mastered the technology of the artificial human manufacturing cabin, they basically backed up new bodies for themselves. Even if they die, they will no longer need to wait for three days to "re-create the account" as they did before, but can be resurrected immediately.

Although the strength will start from the level of their own customized artificial human just out of the cabin, it is like saving a file in advance at a high cost, but compared with the original, it is still a huge improvement.

Some people put the backup body on the original star, and some people put the backup body on the starship.

Now their main bodies want to go out and wander. If they are lucky, they may bring back some accurate information.

But the dangers must be made known to these players.

So Bai Er replaced the general manager, and his voice appeared in the ship's broadcast, "Humans should explore the unknown. This is our instinctive nature. But there are indeed fatal loopholes in the current design of the starship. If we continue to move forward, we will inevitably face the fate of disintegration. The same reasoning also applies to those small escape pods. Because of their small structure, they may be able to hold on for a longer time, but this does not mean that they are safe. If you continue to move forward, those small escape pods also have the risk of disintegration. If you know this, you still want to drive those escape pods out to see... then come on."

Disintegration?

Death?

Are these words a big threat to players?

Not to mention that many players have already tried it with their own bodies. Except for a few unlucky ones who were killed by hitting sharp objects and then entering the space environment, they can survive for a while with their current physical fitness after being exposed to the space environment for a short time.

As long as there is something that opens a new plot line before the small escape pod completely disintegrates, or before their bodies are completely dead after the disintegration, won’t it be fine?

Although this idea is not very reliable and sounds more abstract.

In such a vast universe, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to rely on a small escape pod or their own body to find new things that may exist in the universe.

But for players, what is this?

‘Give it a try? ’

‘What if it works? ’

‘Isn’t it just death? ’

Similar ideas can’t help but make tempting sounds in the minds of many players.

So half of the escape pods carried on the starship were sent out, replacing the starship itself, and continued to drive towards the original destination of the starship.

In the small escape pod that can accommodate at least dozens of people, each player put on his jet power backpack with excitement. This is the last resort for them to obtain active mobility in space after the escape pod disintegrates.

If they still can't find any turning point before the power backpack fuel runs out, then they will be completely finished.

Many players are willing to try the seemingly desperate gamble with extremely small probability. Everyone looks at each other through the transparent portholes and watches each other go away in sight... away...

Then, one after another, fireworks exploded...

The starships that bid farewell to those adventurous players are on the way home.

Some players who had just said goodbye to everyone and woke up from the production cabin of the artificial human were full of regret, "I should have known not to go!"

"Fuck! It exploded just after I went out!"

"Ahaha, this is so fun~"

"Did everyone explode?"

"Not really..." A familiar player looked at the soulless body of his former companion sleeping quietly in the backup hibernation cabin, and there was visible envy in his eyes, "Some people are still flying forward!"

"I really envy them..."

"I don't know how far they can fly?" (End of this chapter)
