Qu Jianlei's deception really deceived Xiao Hu.
The key is that it sounds like it is true in theory.
"Then take it back!" Xiao Hu still trusts the boss after all, "Boss, you have to help me!"
"It's necessary!" Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Is everything back to normal now?"
It has indeed returned to normal, and even Space Positioning can be used.
But this Space Positioning... isn't that accurate either.
In the interstellar map, it is obviously the same distance, but in Maiden Star Region, the difference may be hundreds or thousands of times.
This feeling is particularly uncomfortable. There is an indescribable sense of separation between theory and reality.
You think you are getting a navigation map that is one to one hundred, but in fact, the map may be one to ten thousand.
Then I don't know when, it will jump to one to one hundred thousand again.
Qu Jianlei has several coordinates on his hand, which were collected previously and are said to be of research value.
The coordinates are correct and we can make it there, but the road is far away... so we can't look at the coordinates! In the process of rushing, I often lose my sense of distance without knowing why.
The instruments on the ship showed that the starship had not stalled, but the distance of the coordinates had hardly changed.
Fortunately, the starship can still be positioned in space and will not lose its position. Otherwise, it is 100% likely to get lost.
But even if I could locate it, it was still quite uncomfortable, and it seemed like I was always jumping around in the misalignment of perception and instrumentation.
In Maiden Star Region, there is not only chaotic energy and changing environment, but also a strong sense of dislocation and fragmentation.
This feeling is a bit crazy, especially since they are all masters with extremely strong senses.
After two days of entering Maiden Star Region, everyone gradually began to adapt to this feeling.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but sigh, "It's okay at last. I can adapt slowly, otherwise I would lose the ability to sense danger."
When sailing in space, various equipment on the starship can detect various dangers, but at their level of cultivation, their own perception of danger is also very important.
In particular, this kind of perception emphasizes predictability and puts great emphasis on intuition, which belongs to Mystic-Side.
At this moment, an electronic synthesized voice came from the central control room, "There is an unknown Energy Mass on the lower right front side. Do you want to avoid it?"
They also passed some unknown Energy Mass before.
However, everyone was not in a very good condition at that time, so they all chose to avoid it and continue to delve deeper.
The outer edge of Maiden Star Region has been detected by countless people.
Although the interior of the star field is not static and Energy Mass will wander around, the probability of harvesting good things from the outer edge is very low.
We have been traveling for more than two days now, and we are not deep into the Star Territory, but after all, we are not just hanging around outside.
But Qu Jianlei still felt a little on the fringe, "Would you like to go and see it?"
Nutrient Solution spread his hands to show that he didn't care, and Old Lady Jia remained silent.
Duo Gan, on the other hand, said, "Our strength... should we go deeper?"
After all, she is the oldest and has the most experience. She has been to Maiden Star Region many times and looks down upon the ordinary gains.
At this moment, Ruler jumped a little, "It feels... a bit interesting here, let's go and take a look."
It was an inevitable thing to do, but since it suggested it, the starship sailed in that direction.
It took half a day for Battalion-Class Ship to reach the edge of Energy Mass, and the warning light of Main Control Room came on.
"The energy intensity in the front is high, and the existing protective shield is not strong enough to be safe."
When driving on Maiden Star Region, the protective shield strength of Battalion-Class Ship is always at 20%.
This kind of protection capability is already quite high, equivalent to the full load protection of Company-level Warship.
Coupled with the rough skin and thick flesh of Battalion-Class Ship, it already far exceeds the protection of Company-level Warship.
Apart from the official team, most of the people who come to Maiden Star Region for adventure are mainly Armed Merchant Ship.
In addition to specially-made merchant ships, such as Four-Alike like Shui Corporation Young Master, the defense of merchant ships is also Company-level Warship.
Strictly speaking, in terms of defense, the merchant ship is slightly inferior to Company-level Warship.
Qu Jianlei believes that those Armed Merchant Ship dare to venture into Maiden Star Region, and when they are in a hurry, 20% protection is enough.
The key is that Battalion-Class Ship is too big, and it would be too expensive to maintain high protection for a long time.
The current 20% protective shield is not enough, so we can improve it.
He discussed with Xiao Hu, raised the protective shield to 50%, and then plunged directly into Energy Mass.
The vision suddenly became blurry, it was gray inside, and the starship's searchlight couldn't shine very far.
Fortunately, the starship has other detection equipment, and it is still possible to detect 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers.
The turbulence in Energy Mass is so violent that even with the physique of Battalion-Class Ship, it will be bumped from time to time.
Duo Gan said, "This energy is a bit too violent. There may be some good things in it."
When the starship was traveling Buduo, a large meteorite appeared in front of it, moving erratically.
Suddenly, Qu Jianlei was attracted by a meteorite with a diameter of more than ten kilometers, "Hey, what is that?"
One side of the meteorite is quite neat, as if it had been cut by something.
What's rare is that in such a violent environment, the cross section is extremely smooth, with no traces of impact or weathering.
"What kind of weapon is this?" Nutrient Solution frowned. It was obvious that this was definitely not a natural creation.
"It shouldn't be Tech-Side's weapon," Duo Gan replied solemnly, "It's most likely left by Divine Script's cultivator."
"Hiss..." Old Lady Jia took a breath, then rubbed his forehead, "It almost hurt my soul."
It turned out that after she discovered the abnormality, she subconsciously released her spiritual consciousness, but she felt as if her spiritual consciousness had been stabbed hard by a sharp cone.
"Be careful," Ruler jumped, "Don't use your spiritual consciousness to perceive it casually, some Great Expert's thoughts will last for a long time!"
The starship sailed to the meteorite. After some discussion, everyone decided to go out and take a look.
Vacuum Door opened, and the violent energy turbulence from outside rushed in instantly.
Fortunately, Tian Yin and Claire were not waiting at the cabin door, and the others were not afraid of such turbulence.
However, compared to the vacuum of space, this feeling is still not very comfortable, and it also forces everyone to activate aura defense.
Duo Gan took out Wind Stabilizing Pearl, "Do you want to use it?"
"No need for the moment," the others shook their heads.
As we all know, although Duo Gan is powerful, the training time with Gathering Spirit Array is too short and cannot drive the magic weapon for a long time.
Everyone rushed out of the cabin despite the chaos and looked at the section of the meteorite.
In the cabin before, everyone's feeling was not very obvious, but now they felt it after leaving the cabin, and the section vaguely released an indescribable Coercive Pressure.
Coercive Pressure is very weak, but its quality is extremely high, and it has an extremely sharp will. Even Duo Gan can't help but frown.
"Good guy, this Coercive Pressure is definitely at the Out-of-Body Realm level... it can last for so long, maybe even higher."
Qu Jianlei did not use spiritual perception, but scanned it with his eyes, carefully guarding against the Coercive Pressure.
Then he felt a slight pain in the middle of his eyebrows, "Is this... sword intention?"
"It's the sword intention," Ruler twisted slightly, "It should be Out-of-Body Realm Great Expert's handwriting. If it weren't for the sword intention, it would be difficult to maintain it for so long."
"Huh?" Nutrient Solution turned his head and looked over, "What is sword intent?"
"It's the thought when drawing the sword," Qu Jianlei didn't mind learning more about it, "I don't really understand it... it's difficult to practice it anyway."
Old Lady Jia suddenly said, "If you feel this Coercive Pressure with your heart, it feels like it can temper Mental Strength."
"That's for sure," Ruler twisted again, "But too much is never enough. You need to rest after exercising for a while, otherwise it will hurt your nerves."
Duo Gan sighed regretfully, "It's a pity that Space Pouch is not that big and can't be taken away."
"The space equipment cannot be taken away," Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, "It cannot carry the sword's intention."
Nutrient Solution and the others closed their eyes, silently feeling the sword's will tempering their souls.
Mu Guang did not close his eyes. Although he was also sensing the sword's intention, he wanted to think about other things.
Then he unexpectedly discovered, "There are still some small pits in the cross section... are they traces of Laser Cannon?"
"It's normal, right?" Old Lady Jia replied calmly, "I must have been discovered by someone, but this kind of mentality is really not advisable."
Obviously, the people who discovered this place before also noticed the sword intention and knew that it was extraordinary.
But this kind of wanton destruction of the ruins of Great Expert is really... a bit excessive.
However, it goes without saying that people who come to explore come in all shapes and sizes, with all kinds of mentality.
Qu Jianlei stood for two hours, feeling severe pain between his eyebrows, and took the initiative to retreat, "I can't do it anymore, enough is enough."
Before him, Mu Guang had retreated, and the remaining four were still holding on.
The most rare thing is Fourth Boss. He actually persisted for nearly three hours before retreating.
"It feels like... it's really a good thing. It would be nice if I could take it away."
"It's too big," Jia Shuiqing also stepped back, "If you want to take it away, you can only drag it with Battalion-Class Ship."
Duo Gan followed closely, "Take this thing away... I'm afraid it's not suitable to put it on Habitable Star."
"It depends on the situation," Qu Jianlei made the decision, "If there is nothing else to gain from this trip, you can try to take it away."
"Otherwise, it's just a chance after all, and there's no harm in leaving it to others."
A meteorite with a diameter of more than ten kilometers... that is, Battalion-Class Ship, otherwise there would be no way to bring it to land at Habitable Star.
Everyone returned to Battalion-Class Ship and released Gathering Spirit Array for two days to rest.
During this process, Tian Yin and Claire also tried to feel the sword's intention, but... they couldn't last even five minutes.
In the final analysis, cultivation is still not enough.
Among all people, Fourth Boss is the most adaptable to the sword's will. Maybe it has something to do with him being Metal Attribute? Qu Jianlei is not jealous either. As a cultivator, everyone should have their own strengths, right? After two days of rest, everyone came to feel the sword's will again, but were shocked to find that they could last less than half the time last time! "It's better to stop temporarily," Qu Jianlei said, "Don't do it too frequently, otherwise it may cause damage that is difficult to repair!"
