A glow flashed in the vast space, and the silver-white spaceship jumped out of hyperspace and into the universe as if condensed from the light."
End of navigation."
Nolan's voice reminded everyone that they had arrived at their destination.Hao Ren immediately looked up from the dazzling information and looked at the images coming from the monitors outside the spaceship.I saw that the spacecraft had reached the edge of a bright nebula, and the state of the nebula was obviously very strange.It was a lilac air cloud structure, which data showed to be over twelve light-years in size, radial throughout the nebula, and brighter at the core.Morphologically, this appears to be a small part of a nebula that has been torn apart, and the bright light may have been the original material that failed to evolve into a star.In the thinner and fainter areas of the nebula, you can see some bright spots of light, where smaller stars are shining."
The shape looks a little weird......," Lily wagged her tail as she leaned in front of the hologram, "like it's been distorted by a haha mirror?"
”Hao Ren nodded: "It may be gravitational interference, there is probably a black hole or something in the place where it sinks." ”They were talking about the strange shape of the nebula: the nebula was irregular, one side of it was clearly "sunken", and all the material around it, including the light, was tilting towards the depression, making its whole structure look like a canvas being pulled and torn, as if a hole had been broken in the universe, and the nebula was leaking out of the hole into another dimension.If you look closely, you can see that the entire lilac nebula is affected by this "skewed point", as if a huge gravitational source is slowly pulling it in.At one end of the lilac nebula, the side closer to the "skewed point", there are also obvious traces of fracture, where all the material disappears abruptly, leaving behind a well-defined cut band, as if the originally invisible cloud had been slashed by some invisible force - or perhaps some optical phenomenon obscured the view."
It's really strange......
Lily muttered to herself, don't look at her two, she is the most educated female student in the team, she looks at the scene in front of her is not just as simple as watching a lively scene, "The phenomenon of starlight skew can be explained by a black hole, what about the nebula material that suddenly broke off over there?"
”"No, I can't even explain the skew of the starlight," Hao Ren glanced at the data on the meter, and suddenly frowned, "There is no black hole there." ”"No black holes?"
Lily's ears twitched, "Then why is the light skewed?"
”"It has nothing to do with gravity," Hao Ren didn't say anything, and the data terminal took the initiative to explain, and at the same time played a set of holograms, which showed the spatial structure of the lilac nebula, which was like a torn curtain full of folds, "The space itself is skewed, the starlight is only distorted in our vision, but they are still straight in their own space."
It's a strange place, there is no strong gravitational source interference, but the curvature of space itself has changed. ”Izax muttered in a rough voice, "It must have been the explosion of the God-Killing War that tore the spatial structure here apart." ”Hao Ren made the spacecraft move closer to the crooked point of the nebula at sub-light speed, and connected to the communication with Gnaku, where Muru was waiting: "Muru, I'll transfer the picture to you, do you see this is the Gate of Surun?"
”He passed the sight of the "crooked nebula" to the Guardian Giant, whose voice came a few seconds later, with a sense of surprise: "This......
It does appear to be part of the system where the Gate of Surune is located, but how did it become like this?
”"We don't know, there are spatial anomalies in those distorted places, the space itself is curved, and it is out of step with the surrounding universe," Hao Ren explained, "Now that we are heading towards the most distorted area, do you know which celestial body that signal is coming from?"
”Muru suppressed his doubts and uneasiness as he searched his memories for his familiar celestial structures from the already heavily distorted nebula: "Skewed......
A little bit further along, do you see this place that looks like it's been cut off?
There is a lone point of light, a star, and around it there should be a rocky planet, and that planet is the fortress of the Gate of Suluon, and its name is Surun.That's where the signal came from. ”Hao Ren nodded, letting Nolan speed towards the planet, and at the same time he turned on the data link to detect the drone swarm, and called up the monitoring record of a drone here a few days ago.A few days ago, a drone had skimmed the area and turned its camera in the direction of the nebula in front of Hao Ren's eyes.But at that time, there was nothing left in the video record, and the sparse starlight tens of thousands of light-years away dotted this desolate and barren place.Hao Ren raised his head, but what he saw was a magnificent, crooked and strange lilac nebula.The Gate of Surune appeared out of nowhere, without warning, and just appeared out of thin air in the universe.The crux of the question is why did it pop up?
Nolan quickly approached the skewed point, soon too close to see the nebula in its entirety with an external monitor.Hao Ren only saw that the spacecraft was approaching a brighter and brighter star, and almost close to the star, a distinct "fault zone" could be seen, which extended to both sides of the star with an almost cosmic momentum (visually).The fault zone is the boundary that I saw when observing the lilac nebula from a distance, as if it had been cut by a knife, and it itself has neither light nor obvious color, but because the entire cosmic background is incompatible with the background of the nebula itself, and the starlight shining from other places is all blocked off on the fault zone, this boundary is very conspicuous."
It feels like this Gate of Surune was cut from something bigger," Lily said, pointing to the fracture zone next to the star, "We're flying towards the knife!"
”Nolan's holographic projection suddenly jumped out of the air, cross-legged and glared at Lily: "Don't talk about such a terrible topic, it's me who is flying over there, I'm looking at it from the first perspective!"
”Hao Ren subconsciously glanced at Nolan, and said in his heart that as he spent more and more time as a ship, the personality of this once indifferent and alienated "female mercenary" has become closer and closer to a normal person.But this change should have nothing to do with the changing spaceship, the main thing is that Nolan finally came into contact with the "real".Now she doesn't have to worry about everything in front of her suddenly disappearing like waking up from a big dream, and she doesn't have to worry about the people around her becoming strangers in the blink of an eye, she lives in a really credible new environment, so what is released now is probably her nature.And just when Hao Ren was thinking about these boundless things in his mind, Nolan's face suddenly changed slightly, and then the speed of the Giant Turtle Rock Terrace dropped suddenly, and the shipboard host also sounded the alarm at the same time: "Time and space anomaly, stop push detection, time and space anomaly, stop push detection...... " Elizabeth immediately jumped up: "What's going on, what's going on?"
”"There's space-time distortion ahead," Nolan's image thinned out all of a sudden, and she was shifting more computing power to the performance of the ship's main engine, "......
There is a problem with the time flow rate of the skewed point. ”Elizabeth scratched her horns: "Time flow?
”The little devil doesn't seem to have learned such a profound lesson.The holographic projection of the console shows an image of a celestial body in the vicinity, and the planet named "Suluan" is in the center of the image, which is marked in a striking red, and a ring of diluting red can be seen around Suluan.It is a vortex that indicates the intensity of a certain phenomenon, and Suluen is at the very center of this vortex."
Time distorts with space, and Surune is at the most skewed," Nolan pointed to the planet Surun, explaining quickly as he spoke, "From here, the closer you get to Surun, the slower time passes. ”The scene suddenly fell silent, and Hao Ren and the others looked at each other.They knew it was weird, but they didn't expect the weirdest part to be the speed of time - unlike anything they'd ever solved."
Getting close to a black hole can have a similar clock-slow effect, or other forms of faster-than-light travel without space-time stabilization," says Nolan, who may not have had the knowledge but now has a database, so she knows everything, "There are neither black holes nor faster-than-light motion here, and the main reason for the change in the flow of time may be the skew of space......
Or some other deeper reason, such as the war of killing gods and blowing up the laws of the universe here. ”(To be continued.) )
