The warp drive was forced to terminate, which was a protective measure for the brain system, but this protective measure had never been activated since the Pioneer spacecraft was built.
Even though Su Yichen and the others encountered two pursuits from unknown civilizations on their way to the Red Dark Nebula, the spacecraft's curvature engine was still running well.
In terms of jump engines, the Pioneer spacecraft is inferior to Ike's spacecraft, let alone the Homeworld spacecraft.
After all, they have not mastered the jump technology for a long time, and the jump engine currently installed on the spacecraft is only a rudimentary jump, not a truly mature product.
But the curvature engine is different.
You must know that when the Pioneer spacecraft was built, the earth civilization had already mastered the curvature technology.
More importantly, the curvature engine of the Pioneer spacecraft was completely copied from the curvature engine of the Homeland spacecraft.
Regardless of its Both the technology and the materials used to build the engine are cutting-edge, and the stability and reliability of the curvature engine have been verified during the actual voyage.
But now, Su Yichen and the others never expected that the curvature engine, which they considered to be absolutely trouble-free, would actually activate termination protection measures.
This was simply unbelievable.
After the engine was terminated, Su Yichen and the others immediately checked the curvature engine and looked for the reason why the protective measures were activated.
The reason was soon found.
When the results were placed in front of them, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.
The reason why the curvature engine was terminated was simple.
It was not due to a problem with the engine itself.
The curvature engine of the Pioneer spacecraft was intact and there was no problem with its operation.
The key is that the reason why the protective measures were activated was because the curvature could not be captured in space, so the protection was suddenly activated and the engine was shut down.
When Su Yichen saw this result, his first reaction was absolutely impossible.
You must know that changes in curvature exist everywhere in the universe.
It is precisely because of the generation of these curvatures that the curvature engine can capture curvature motion under the control of the intelligent brain, thereby using curvature to achieve a flight state beyond the speed of light.
But now, the results actually tell them that the curvature engine and intelligent brain system cannot capture the curvature in space.
How is this possible?
This result is like someone telling Su Yichen that he can't find a drop of water in the ocean.
It's ridiculous.
However, the facts were before him when he reviewed the test results and confirmed them again.
The answer given suddenly silenced him.
Luo Yan looked at the result with the same surprise.
Like Su Yichen, her first reaction was also impossible.
But this is the result, and when they use equipment to scan space in the universe to determine whether curvature exists.
The result is the same as before.
Although this airspace looks normal, it does not have any change in curvature, which is simply weird.
Looking at each other, Su Yichen couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Where on earth did they come?
After passing through the wormhole, the jump engine of the spacecraft lost its function, and now the curvature engine cannot be used.
This airspace is really weird.
If I had known it earlier so.
Su Yichen will never enter the wormhole.
The question of what to do now was posed in front of Su Yichen.
After careful consideration, Su Yichen decided to return immediately to avoid being completely trapped in trouble.
But returning is not that simple.
The Pioneer spacecraft is now nearly five light-years away from the wormhole behind it.
To return to the wormhole, it must first cross this distance.
Under normal circumstances, it would be very easy for Su Yichen and the others to cross this distance.
Even if they did not use the jump engine and directly used high-speed curvature, it would not take too long.
But now, can they return smoothly?

When the return order was given, Su Yichen decided to use the Pioneer spacecraft to approach the wormhole through a jump.
To be on the safe side, he set a jump distance of five light years, but when the jump was completed, Su Yichen and others' hearts suddenly sank.
Distance calculation tells them.
When they emerged from the jump, they moved to a position of only 01 light years.
This distance was even shorter than the distance of the third jump.
Of course, the first three jump distances were set to be relatively longer, but the problem lies in the distance of movement.
It's really too short.
"I felt the space stretching infinitely again, just when we were making the jump."
Su Wei said solemnly.
"Increase the distance."
Luo Yan's face didn't look good at this time.
She thought for a while and made a suggestion.
Yes, it is to increase the jump distance.
According to this weird airspace, they can only make a fuss about the original jump distance.
Since the movement range is actually too small, they can increase the original set distance.
For example, set the jump distance to 30 light years.
Then even if the space is stretched, they can still use the difference between the stretch and the distance of the jump to reach the desired position.
After a period of rest, the Pioneer spacecraft began another jump flight.
According to previous data calculations, this time Su Yichen positioned the distance to 30 light years.
If the situation is as they imagined, then after the jump is completed, they will be 30 light years away.
The wormhole is one light-year away, but no one expected that when this jump was completed, everyone on the Pioneer spacecraft was shocked and speechless. "015 light years" Su Yichen looked at the data in front of him with an ugly expression.
After a jump distance of thirty light years, the final position they moved was only 015 light years.
Although this distance was slightly longer than the previous distance, it could be seen from Comparing the jump distance with the actual distance, they walked shorter.
What exactly is going on and why is the infinite stretching of space different every time?
And judging from the time of the jump distance, it seems that the amplitude of the infinite stretching of space will increase accordingly every time.
Could it be that this airspace has unknown special characteristics?
It's like there is an invisible god watching them from above, playing with them in this strange way for fun.
In order to verify, Su Yichen quickly carried out another jump flight.
This time, the positioning was still 30 light years, but the result was that they actually moved to a position of only 009 light years.
When the result came out, Su Yichen's face turned extremely ugly.
Luo Yan couldn't help but show a horrified expression.
"We are in big trouble."
Su Yichen said seriously.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the seemingly ordinary space outside: "This place is like an endless swamp, and we accidentally got trapped in it.
Now, the space here seems An unknown adjustment is being made for us, and this adjustment is becoming more and more targeted.
I don’t know if we can go back, and I don’t know what the future will be like, Xiaoyan, I’m sorry.”
Luo Yan shook her head.
She didn't say anything but just held Su Yichen's hand.
She knew why Su Yichen said sorry.
If it weren't for his persistence, they wouldn't have gone to Red Dark Nebula back then.
If I hadn't gone to the Red Dark Nebula, I wouldn't have been lost in the long river of time and space.
If I hadn't been separated from Ike, or if I hadn't entered this wormhole, the outcome would have been completely different.
Now, face this complicated situation.
Su Yichen had no idea what to do.
He only felt deeply guilty for Luo Yan.

"We still have a chance.
As long as there is a chance, there is hope, right?"
Luo Yan hugged her husband and encouraged in his ear.
More importantly, in her heart, it doesn't matter if there is no chance.
As long as she is with her husband Together, what is the difference between here and in the normal universe?
Su Yichen nodded and took a deep breath.
Luo Yan was right.
They do still have a chance.
The wormhole is still about 48 light-years away.
No matter how the space is stretched, as long as they can still move their positions during the jump, there is still a chance of reaching the wormhole.
Thinking of this, Su Yichen immediately asked Su Wei to make a calculation, and then made another jump according to the calculation.
When this jump was completed, although the position they moved was further than before, reaching a distance of 0.12 light years. , but there was no joy on Su Yi's face regarding this result.
Because the actual distance set for this jump is 50 light years, judging from the ratio of the set distance to the final movement distance, the stretching of space is more targeted.
The jump engine of the Pioneer spacecraft is not very perfect due to technical and material limitations.
Theoretically, the maximum jump distance of the Pioneer spacecraft is about 100 light years, but in fact, during the voyage, the jump distance used by Su Yichen and others was basically 5060 light years, sometimes even shorter.
This is done firstly because of the limitations of the jump engine, and secondly because of the safety of the jump.
You must know that the longer the jump distance, the greater the possibility of accidents.
What's more, some of the equipment of the Pioneer spacecraft are not as advanced as those of Ike's spacecraft or the Homeworld spacecraft.
About 50 light-years is the limit at which the Pioneer spacecraft can search forward and ensure most safety.
Now, they are jumping at a distance of 50 light-years, but they did not expect that their actual moving distance is only 0.12 light-years.
If the stretching of this space is only fixed at this ratio, then the rest of their journey will take at least 0.12 light-years. 39 jumps.
But the question is, is the proportion of space stretching fixed?
Obviously not.
The results of transitions prove that with each transition, the stretching of space becomes more targeted.
If this continues, mathematically Presumably, then they can get infinitely close to the wormhole, but they will never reach the wormhole.
In fact, this was also the case.
In the following days, Su Yichen and the others made several more jumps, and the jump distances were longer and longer, and finally reached the designed maximum distance of 100 light years.
But as expected, the proportion of actual distance moved became larger and larger, that is, the distance they moved became shorter and shorter.
When reaching the seventh jump, the 100 light-year distance setting only moved the Pioneer spacecraft 300 astronomical units.
This distance result makes people speechless.
You must know that one light year is equal to more than 60,000 astronomical units, and 300 astronomical units is less than 0,005 light years in light years.
Compared with the still long target, this distance is really different.
Now that they are old, Su Yichen knows very well that they are completely in trouble, and only God knows whether they will escape.
There was a problem with the jump, and the curvature could not be used.
Fortunately, there was no problem with the Pioneer spacecraft's normal navigation, which was at least gratifying.
But the problem is that they are still more than four light years away from the wormhole.
According to normal sailing speed, they will not be able to reach their destination in their lifetime.
In addition, there is another issue that needs to be considered, and that is the existence time of the wormhole.
More than a month has passed since they came to this place through the wormhole.
Although the wormhole is still there, it can disappear at any time.
Once this wormhole disappears, Su Yichen and Luo Yan will never be able to leave here and will be trapped in this place forever.
With no better way, Su Yichen could only use continuous jumps to get closer to the target, hoping to reach the wormhole and leave as soon as possible.
But the longer time goes by, the more jumps there are, and the shorter the range they move.
When the eleventh jump is completed, the Pioneer spacecraft's moving distance has been shortened to 91 astronomical units.
Seeing this distance display, Su Yichen's heart is already Bitter and speechless.

"Let's use normal navigation instead, target the wormhole."
In this case, Su Yichen finally gave up the idea of using jump flight again and ordered the spacecraft to head towards the wormhole in normal navigation.
Because he knew very well that even if he made another jump, it would be useless.
If the preparation time and energy consumed by the jump were taken into account, including the increasing proportion of space stretching, then it would be better to move forward by ordinary navigation.
Next, they don't know how long they will stay here, maybe hundreds of years, maybe thousands or even ten thousand years.
Of course, human life cannot be that long.
By then, Su Yichen and his wife will have long passed away.
Intelligent life Su Wei will continue to live, and when the time comes, Su Wei will take their bodies and leave, if the wormhole still exists.
Giving up the jump flight was equivalent to giving up the opportunity to escape from here.
In fact, judging from the situation, it was impossible for them to escape from this airspace, but Su Yichen had always persisted.
After he gave the order for normal flight, he felt relieved.
He smiled guiltily at Luo Yan and said, "We are unlucky.
It seems that you will stay with me here forever."
"What does it matter?"
Luo Yan replied with the same smile.
There was no complaint in her eyes, only deep love.
As long as the two of them were together, it made no difference to her where they were. aa2705221:
