Chapter 681: Revised: Chapter 366 Wormhole Space-Time (Five in One)
At this moment, Su Ming looked at the vortex-shaped space wormholes, and asked with a serious expression.
"With so many space wormholes, which one do we take? Moreover, are these space wormholes safe? Are you sure we can navigate through them?"
"Rest assured, the space wormholes before us may seem dangerous, but they are not as terrifying as they appear. Their structure is stable. Some of these space wormholes have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years, some even longer. We just need to avoid touching the distorted edges when entering! Of course, these space wormholes are nothing compared to the entrance of the Abyss of Descent. Although there is only one entrance to the Abyss of Descent, it requires extreme caution when entering, a slight mistake and it’s all over."
Su Yuan explained to Su Ming with a wealth of experience.
"Hmm."
Su Ming nodded slightly.
Su Yuan had been stationed at the Abyss of Descent, one of the Three Forbidden Zones, for years, so his advice was reliable.
At this moment, Captain Lum approached, reporting to the three of them.
"Lord Shadel, we are about to enter; it might get a bit bumpy."
"Understood."
Shadel nodded in response.
Hearing this, Su Ming carefully watched the starry sky ahead as they rapidly approached a medium-sized space wormhole.
The edges of the entire space wormhole were twisted, emitting a faint glow, while the center was pitch black, reminiscent of an abyss, revealing nothing within.
Soon, the Level 5 Battleship Ghost Fire plunged into the space wormhole.
Instantly, the entire ship shook violently, and the outside universe became pitch black, with nothing visible.
Occasionally, specks of light could be seen, but they quickly zipped past.
The entire Ghost Fire seemed to be flying through an abyss.
Su Ming immediately felt a sense of disorientation and deviation, prompting him to remind them.
"Are you sure we can navigate this way without getting lost in the space wormhole?"
Shadel, hearing Su Ming’s concern, confidently patted his chest and said.
"Brother Su Ming, don’t worry. Although our destination is an unexplored area, this particular wormhole has been traversed by humans many times, so it’s relatively safe. As for getting lost, you don’t need to worry either; for this journey, I brought the wormhole astrometry device."
"Wormhole Astrometer? What’s that?"
"It’s a special positioning device developed by our kingdom. With it, we can precisely locate our position within the wormhole space-time, ensuring we won’t get lost."
Shadel said proudly.
"Sounds amazing, can I take a look?"
Su Ming’s interest was piqued.
"I’m afraid not. This device is a top-secret of the Shabask Kingdom and must remain confidential."
Shadel apologized in response.
Su Ming, still curious, asked.
"I don’t quite understand. The Federation has been developing in the wormhole space-time for so long; they should have their own positioning device. Why such secrecy?"
"The Federation’s positioning devices are provided by us. According to the agreement, the Federation can’t open the device. If they do, it self-destructs automatically."
Shadel replied with a chuckle.
"I see, that makes sense now."
Understanding dawned on Su Ming as he nodded.
Just then, the ship trembled violently, and Su Ming and the others turned their gaze to the outer space.
The moment Ghost Fire exited the space wormhole, the originally pitch-black scenery transformed dramatically.
A vast stellar sea unfolded before their eyes.
In this expansive stellar sea floated planets of varying sizes, and even a massive red giant star emitting a dazzling light was visible.
Additionally, numerous space wormholes were scattered around the perimeter of the stellar sea.
Witnessing this scene, Su Ming asked in amazement.
"Su Yuan, does each space wormhole represent an unknown star sea?"
"Pretty much. Each star sea contains countless space wormholes leading to new star seas, an endless exploration task! The deeper you go, the more dangerous it gets; no one knows what monsters we might encounter. Based on the publicly available Federation data, there are at least 1000 known life forms inhabiting the wormhole space-time."
Su Yuan thought for a moment before responding to Su Ming.
"Hmm."
Su Ming nodded in response.
They quietly watched Ghost Fire’s journey. About two hours later, they observed a very peculiar phenomenon.
In the starry sky to their right, an area was densely packed with a massive volume of debris, forming a long belt of fragments resembling a snake.
"What’s going on? Why so much debris? And arranged so systematically."
Su Ming asked in bewilderment.
"This..."
Su Yuan rubbed his chin, deep in thought, seemingly unsure about his conjectures.
At that moment, Bain exclaimed excitedly.
"Look over there."
Hearing Bain, Su Ming and the others turned their heads.
In the distant starry sky, they saw a monstrous mechanical behemoth with a diameter of one hundred kilometers, made of gray metal and shark-toothed at the front, clasping a fifty-kilometer diameter asteroid and pulverizing it furiously.
This mechanical behemoth had a mesh-like opening at its rear.
Countless fragments were spewing out.
Occasionally, Iron Guard Mechas were seen pushing smaller asteroids towards the behemoth’s pulverizing opening.
