Chapter 242 At least in the end, I didn’t die alone
It took Old E more than ten minutes to complete the entire quantum knowledge tower.
When he walked out, a familiar execution song sounded in his ears, indicating that the sun was about to enter the final detonation stage.
"We're running out of time. Let's fly out and take another look at the sun exploding."
What is coming will eventually come.
Old E estimated that it takes about twenty minutes from the beginning to the explosion of the sun each time.
That is to say.
Each time loop is fixed.
He wanted to find a way to escape the solar system, so he could only keep exploring in this endless loop of more than 20 minutes, accumulating information bit by bit.
And everything.
But he can only do it alone.
When a person flies a spaceship back and forth in the vast space, after a long time, a sense of loneliness will always arise in his heart unconsciously.
Empty, lonely, silent...
This is what space feels like, and why the game is so realistic.
"Goodbye to this world, goodbye to this universe."
Leaving the deep giant and entering space, Old E saw the collapsing fiery red sun at a glance, and kept moving towards it, wanting to get closer to observe it.
Although it was not the first time I saw it, it was still very shocking. It looked particularly spectacular in this vast space.
"The stars are so far away from me. Not a single one is willing to accompany me. I can only float in the universe alone."
Looking at the twinkling stars all around him, he couldn't help but sigh.
His mood at this moment might be the same as those astronauts in reality. No wonder some people say that staying in space for a long time will make you crazy.
However, at this moment, an accident occurred.
A familiar planet suddenly fell slowly from above his head, blocking the light between him and the sun.
"This...isn't this my hometown, Woodstove Planet?"
Old E was stunned for a moment, then he reacted immediately, feeling a little touched, and the audience also became agitated instantly.
Yes.
He is not alone.
Even at this last moment, his familiar hometown will appear before him and accompany him through the last leg of his journey.
"Unfortunately, I'm running out of fuel and can't fly back. Otherwise, I'd rather die back home."
Glancing at the low fuel warning on the screen, Old E was filled with regret and was once again deeply impressed by the romance of this game.
He looked away.
It was discovered that the sun had completely collapsed into a ball, and then exploded, turning into a terrifying blue-white energy that spread outward.
It's like the most beautiful fireworks in the universe.
"In the end, I died alone."
Watching this beautiful yet fatal moment, Old E was surprisingly calm, quietly waiting for death to come.
And at this time.
A familiar whistle sounded.
Below, which had become pitch black due to the explosion of the sun, a horizon slowly rose.
The Wood Stove Star, who he thought had gone far away, appeared again and pulled him back.
"Huh? Wait! I'm being pulled back by the gravity of my hometown!"
Old E's surprised voice echoed, and he was captured by the gravity of the Wood Stove Star along with the spacecraft and fell to the ground.
It was like the first time I entered this game and I crashed into the ground.
But this time there was no more cursing. After being stunned for a moment, he instead let out a long sigh of relief.
"Well, at least I didn't die alone in the end."
His eyes swept across the rapidly expanding energy, and finally the screen turned completely white, and another cycle of time ended.
The audience who saw this scene were also deeply moved.
"In the end, I was pulled back by the gravity of my hometown."
"That's great. At least I didn't die alone outside in the end."
"I remember that whistle was played by someone in the village."
"What a sci-fi game that is so sensational, it made me cry."
"Tears in my eyes, welcome home."
“This game is so beautiful.”
This moment.
Everyone was completely captivated by this romantic form of space art.
At least in terms of the spiritual core, this game has completely crushed other competing products.
There is no existence that can compete with it.
"Okay, keep going. We have to find a way to escape the solar system today!"
As if time went back, Old E adjusted his mood and appeared next to the fire again.
And his interest was obviously much higher than at the beginning. He took the elevator and drove the spaceship straight into outer space, then clicked on the galaxy map.
"We've explored the sun, the moon, and the deep giant. This time, let's go to... the farthest planet!"
Soon, his eyes fell on the outermost planet in the entire solar system, called "Blackthorn", which is known for its unconventional ways of playing.
Select the target, lock onto the farthest track directly, turn on automatic driving and increase the speed to the highest.
After spending several minutes and crossing the orbits of several planets, we finally arrived at the deeper depths of the universe and saw the huge celestial body floating in the darkness.
"Huh? This planet has a weird shape, is it really one of the planets?"
Old E, wearing glasses, looked suspiciously at the planet in front of him that had shattered into countless pieces.
It's more like a plant than a planet.
Because the center of the entire Blackthorn Star has been completely occupied by a strange vine plant.
The giant vines that extended out stretched out the original surface of the planet and extended into outer space.
It looks like an octopus with its claws and fangs bared.
“What a unique design.”
"Giant plants that are comparable to planets, this is a good idea."
"Another independently designed planet."
"Sure enough, every planet is different."
"It looks like there's nothing up there."
A strange plant that can blow up a planet and floats in space still looks very scary.
For fear that the giant vines would suddenly entangle the spacecraft if it got close, Old E slowed down and moved forward cautiously.
However, what surprised him was.
I passed through the vines on the outer edge of the planet and entered the center area without being attacked at all.
Instead, he took the opportunity to see clearly the center of the planet, something that looked like a plant tumor.
There were many holes on the tumor, and the inside was completely covered with white mist, making it impossible to see the specific situation.
"Do you want to go in and take a look?"
After hesitating for a moment, he finally plucked up the courage to fly the spaceship into one of the holes.
After entering, I found that there was a different world inside.
From the outside it looked like just a small hole, but inside it was extremely vast and completely shrouded in white mist, with visibility of only a few dozen meters.
There were giant vines crisscrossing each other, and white spots of light were stationary everywhere, but it was impossible to tell what they were.
"Oh my god, this place is a bit scary. I'm afraid I've come to the underworld!"
In front of the camera, Lao E tightly grasped the VR control bracelet in his hand, his whole body was hunched over, not daring to breathe.
The view around was completely blocked by the fog, and only a burst of empty music sounded in the ears, like a cold wind blowing in the ears, making people feel creepy.
The audience in front of the screen couldn't help but shrink their necks.
Subconsciously, Lao E locked onto one of the white spots and carefully moved towards that direction, wanting to see what these light sources were.
"If I'm not mistaken, these light spots should be where the clues are hidden."
As soon as he finished speaking, a spot of light finally appeared before his eyes.
It turned out to be a huge tumor like the one in the center of the planet, with several similar holes on it, and also covered by fog.
"What is this? A space doll?"
Everyone looked surprised and exclaimed that it was magical.
The internal structure of this planet was beyond their expectations. Every plant tumor , or seed, was connected to an independent space.
And there are tumors in the space, nesting each other.
Doesn’t that mean that once you come in, you can’t leave?
"Damn, there are a bunch of white spots and red spots in this space. Could they be plant tumors?"
After passing through the new entrance, Old E found various spots of light appeared in front of him again, and he became even more nervous.
finally.
He couldn't help but launch a detector.
In the upper right corner of the spacecraft, the scenery along the way also appeared, which was either vines or endless fog.
but.
Just when the detector was about to lose signal.
At the end of the white fog in the picture, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared, almost blocking most of the inside of the cave, and then the reconnaissance screen went dark.
"Wait, what was that just now?"
Old E said in surprise and doubt.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the thing seemed to move just now, and the white light seemed to come from the black shadow.
For a moment, the barrage was filled with messages wishing Zhong Kui to protect them and Buddha to bless them, but they were also worried about missing out on important content and stared at the screen.
"I have a bad feeling about this."
The interior of the planet is almost gravity-free.
Even if Old E wanted to slow down, the spaceship had already flown into the cave due to the inertia of the previous propulsion and headed straight for the light spot.
Gradually, his eyes widened.
He revealed a look of horror.
Because those white lights are not clues, but the headlights of giant anglerfish!
The huge body seemed to be in the deep sea, floating quietly in the white mist in front.
"This is Kun, it's so big!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the "sleeping" anglerfish seemed to have heard his voice. They suddenly turned their heads in unison, and aimed their bloody mouths full of terrifying fangs at this side.
"Gift Crab!"
"No, no, no! Don't!"
Old E was almost scared to death and hurriedly pressed the reverse direction push button.
As a result, because of the sound of the thrusters, all the anglerfish instantly locked onto him, suddenly opened their mouths wide and swam towards him, almost blocking the entire exit.
“Fuck!”
"No! I don't want to play anymore!"
"ah!!!"
Screams echoed in the live broadcast room.
Old E in front of the camera took two steps back, fell directly to the ground, and tried hard to pull off the VR glasses on his head.
However, the spacecraft was still affected by inertia and crashed into the mouth of one of the anglerfish and was swallowed.
The roars of anglerfish can still be heard in my ears.
"Fuck, I'm scared to death."
“Shit, shit, shit! Is this a monkfish?”
“When everything turned around, I almost threw my phone away.”
"Plant planets, space dolls, monkfish, are these the kinds of ideas that humans can come up with?"
"I finally understand what the game introduction meant when it said not to make a sound when you encounter an anglerfish."
“Monkfish: Takeout is here!”
"One step to the stomach belongs to yes."
“This planet design is really interesting.”
Some of the audience in the live broadcast room were scared to death, while others were amazed by the design of the planet.
Planets bursting with plants, nesting dolls in inner space, and giant anglerfish headlights luring prey.
No matter which one is taken out, it is undoubtedly a great creative design.
All of them gathered on one planet made them even more astonished and exclaimed at the bizarreness of the universe.
Sci-fi, science and fantasy.
This time, Honghuang has undoubtedly brought these two things to the extreme and made an amazing game.
And in front of the camera.
Old E took off his VR glasses and gasped.
"Damn it, I almost had a heart attack while playing a game. I will never go to this damn Blackthorn Star again."
Seeing him like this, the audience laughed out loud.
"I know you are scared, but if the important clues are deep inside the Blackthorn Star, how will you deal with it?"
"Don't be scared, just do it! The worst that can happen is that the monkfish will die of overeating."
"I bet there are important clues in Blackthorn Star. This planet involves space, and maybe it is the planet we need to rely on for space transfer!"
"Fuck! That makes a lot of sense!"
The analysis that suddenly appeared on the barrage made others' eyes light up.
Based on the information they currently know , it seems that there is no other way to escape the solar system except through space travel.
And Blackthorn Star happens to be related to space.
It’s hard not to make associations.
"Go away, don't try to trick me. You are all spies sent by Monkfish to trick me into delivering food."
Old E, who had just been scared half to death, would never believe their nonsense. He stood up, put on his VR glasses again and entered the game.
"I can't go to Blackthorn, but I can go to other planets, right? At worst, I can just fly out of the solar system."
"I just don't believe it. If you fly out of the solar system, you can still blow me up!"
After saying that, he drove the spaceship straight out of the solar system.
