Shuttle, Ocean God Kingdom
"We have half an hour left before we have to cross the obstacle avoidance area, Su Mo. Shouldn't we make some preparations?"
Summoned, Su Mo, who was sitting in the driver's seat drawing and writing, looked up with interest:
"For example?"
"For example, we can put aside the matter of writing our wills for now. After all, when we die, these things won't just slowly drift back to the wasteland. We can try using Psionic Water to create some new particles and see if it can cause any changes to the God's Barrier. Or we can prepare some weapons, just in case we can break through. We might even be able to..."
"Um, okay, if you think it's necessary!"
In the last hour before the barrier was to be crossed, except for Su Deben.
These researchers ultimately couldn't resist their curiosity.
Starting with biologist Zhuo Junfan, Su Mo took the time during this final period to get to know all these researchers.
At this final juncture, the others wisely gave up their positions and allowed Lü Kuan to take them.
Among them, he has the deepest understanding of aerospace science, even reaching 11% of the Interstellar Age.
Lü Kuan was clearly unwilling to accept defeat so easily! "Sit down and relax. Instead of worrying, why not take a look at the world high in the sky? Who knows when the next opportunity will come!"
The Youneng Shuttle Rocket at this moment.
The altitude has reached a terrifying 240,000 kilometers!
On Earth, the distance to the Moon is only 360,000 kilometers.
But now, having already flown more than halfway to the moon, the rocket can still be seen around clouds and the sun that has not yet set!
Just like having a slowing buff applied, the rocket's self-check showed no problems, and its speed was not reduced in any way.
The distance is increasing, but the surrounding scenery remains unchanged, like an evergreen tree.
Oreo, however, remained curious and kept peering out the window.
But for Lü Kuan, who had observed twice, this look stirred up his inner fear once again.
I just stood there, dumbfounded.
A silly-looking robot, a large black and white dog, combined with the exterior scenery and the sci-fi interior.
This scene made Su Mo, who had looked up and glanced at it, laugh.
In the quiet sky.
His smile was very obvious.
But it wasn't until the last ten minutes that Su Mo put down the pen and paper he was using for planning, stood up, and walked to the window.
Upon arriving here, the surrounding scenery finally began to change slightly.
Even with the naked eye, Su Mo could see some of the boundaries.
The entire wasteland was like being encased in a glass box, with the clouds at the edge floating to the upper level before being suppressed at the boundary.
And here, you can finally see the ten continents that you saw in the Shan Hai Painting cards before.
"Those were once prosperous and glorious lands of this world, but unfortunately, after the First World War, they were turned into wastelands where no living being could enter."
"That's where the real apocalypse is!"
"Terrifying radiation, collapsing earth, thick electron clouds, and terrifying disasters with an eruption frequency of up to 3rm; no living thing that enters can survive more than seven days!"
"Even if we wear protective suits, going in and out once will cause irreversible damage to our bodies!"
Just like the irradiated lands in 7 Days to Die, seeing Su Mo's curiosity, Lü Kuan stood up and explained softly.
"Oh? Radiation? Was a nuclear bomb used inside?"
Lü Kuan shook his head. "Yes, there were more than twenty Earth civilizations with relatively extreme development. They united at the time and launched a number of high-yield nuclear bombs to cleanse the wasteland. If the place we are standing on now wasn't their launch site, this place would probably have suffered too."
"And after that, those of you who came in later are no longer allowed to carry weapons, and you won't even feel yourself being transported here."
"What a pity! These places used to be fertile lands with hundreds and thousands of unimaginable wonders, but now they've all been destroyed. Especially this place, it will likely remain a forbidden zone for life for three to five hundred years."
From high above, the clear boundaries of the wasteland below can be seen.
It's like looking at Earth from outer space.
A long, crooked gray line wrapped around the lit part.
Compared to the large gray areas, this bright spot seems incredibly jarring, giving off an unrealistic feeling.
"Look, that's the barrier we need to overcome!"
With only five minutes remaining, Lü Kuan spoke again.
This time, the closer they got, the easier it was to observe the God's Barrier.
Like the "protective film" that wraps the box, this barrier hangs straight up in the air, creating an inexplicable sense of incongruity.
"This is quite different from the South Heaven Gate in our Chinese mythology; it looks completely fake."
After making a joke and stretching his body, Su Mo straightened up.
He has now successfully switched back to his original form and is no longer in "Yang Jian" mode.
Because of the advantage of being the Ocean God Envoy, Su Mo planned to conduct a test when he first went up the obstacle avoidance platform.
If it succeeds, great; if it doesn't, so be it!
With the Youneng Shuttle Rocket as a backup, Su Mo felt no fear whatsoever when facing obstacles.
"Three minutes have passed, shall we begin preparations?"
Su Mo slowly sat down. "Alright! After the successful shuttle, I may need to perform extravehicular operations, so I'll leave this place to you then!"
Lü Kuan turned his head and stared straight at him. "Su Mo, I regret it a little. I didn't leave any last words!"
"Haha, it's not too late to set it up now!"
"Too late, I'm already wondering what kind of world lies behind the barrier!"
With a slight smile, Lü Kuan turned his head back and began to concentrate on operating the instrument in front of him.
Miraculously, on the eve of this journey, under the pressure of life and death, he actually let go of his inner demons! "Alright, just watch closely!"
With his hands on the flight rudder, Su Mo was not distracted and focused on preparing for any unexpected situations that might arise.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Unlike the tranquility below, reaching this height seemed to have provoked the wrath of the gods.
A series of swirling winds relentlessly pounded against the surface of the psionic rocket, sending back deafening roars.
Several streaks of lightning flashed across the sky, striking the rocket with crackling sounds.
hail.
rainstorm.
snowflake.
Various extreme weather events began to evolve here.
What should have been a minute felt like an eternity due to the rapid changes.
Fortunately, the outer shell material of the Youneng Shuttle Rocket is exceptionally robust.
Apart from a few sounds, there was no vibration or any feedback, which put Su Mo completely at ease.
"Two minutes away"
As expected, the weather barrier was overcome, and Lü Kuan shouted again.
The surrounding environment also changed simultaneously.
Almost all light disappeared here, except for the blue light emitted by the psionic rocket itself, and even the thin film in the air above disappeared.
It looked as if the rocket had fallen into a clump of mud and lost all contact with the outside world.
However, having learned from the previous two experiences, and seeing that everything on the dashboard was normal, Su Mo felt reassured and did not take over the controls.
"One minute away"
As soon as Lü Kuan finished speaking, the darkness disappeared, and the familiar scene reappeared.
But this time, what appeared beside them was the Starry Sky!
"Choose one. Pick one from these stars, we won't care anymore, we'll just crash into it!"
"We've tried these two before, and they both require a divine spark. We haven't tried the rest yet, so you can make the decision!"
The Starry Sky, and countless enormous planets, like stars, float within it, emitting different kinds of light.
Pointing expertly to one of the planets emitting an earthy brown light and another with flames rising from it, Lü Kuan quickly said.
Following his finger, Su Mo also saw the appearance of the remaining planets.
At this time, there are not many spheres floating here.
At a glance, the number is less than a hundred.
Of these, only a handful, a total of ten, shone particularly brightly.
The remaining items were divided into several grades based on the degree of light reduction.
The two stars that Lü Kuan once collided with were the two faintest of all the stars.
"Wait, pay attention to my instructions!"
Signaling to Lü Kuan not to disturb him, Su Mo activated the strange breathing technique previously taught to him by the Fertile Soil Ocean God.
A series of light blue rays erupted directly from his body in a spatial dimension that Lü Kuan could not see.
Then it began to hover inside the cabin! The light was very faint at first, but it gradually became stronger after sensing the surrounding environment.
Even without Su Mo's active control, the light itself began to form arrows, pointing to the left.
Following the arrow, Su Mo immediately made a hand gesture.
Without any hesitation, Lü Kuan also moved the control lever and changed the rocket's direction.
Twenty seconds later, the arrow changed again.
Lü Kuan followed suit.
At this point, the twenty faintest planets in the back had been skipped, and the group moved on to the second tier of radiant planets.
The light here is slightly less intense than that in front, but compared to that behind, it is already clearly visible that it possesses a divine quality.
Unfortunately, the arrow still didn't stop here!
He continued to direct Lü Kuan forward, his eyes fixed intently on the arrowhead.
At this point, all the Radiant Planets in the second tier have been skipped.
Arrived within the first gear! And just after leaving the previous boundary, as soon as they entered, the arrow immediately made a slight adjustment.
The final destination is not the ten glorious planets ahead.
Gradually, the arrows became more and more precise.
After passing all the planets ahead, a star emitting a pale blue gas finally appeared directly in front of the spaceship.
And arriving here means that the true location of the Ocean God is within! "This?"
"Um!"
"Okay, then I'm going in!"
With a sudden jerk of the lever forward, the rocket's energy began to violently erupt, generating terrifying thrust! Under this force, the planet that was previously somewhat distant was brought to Su Mo's sight in an instant.
The next second.
Boom! The Youneng Shuttle Rocket crashed into it like a madman.
It seemed as if there was endless resistance, or as if there was taffy stuck to the rocket.
Seeing that, unlike the direct explosions of the past, the psionic rocket, though slowed down, was undamaged, Lü Kuan immediately became excited.
He was manipulating the robot's arm, and the accelerator lever was almost at its maximum angle.
Sitting next to him, Su Mo, who had been maintaining his breathing technique, also adjusted his breathing rate to the fastest.
Like a code, the blue light inside the cabin pulsed more and more intensely, eventually slowly seeping through the gaps and out of the rocket.
As the entire rocket took on the same color as the planet, the external resistance suddenly eased.
Although the sphere still resisted, it lost the biggest factor that could stop the rocket from moving forward.
With the powerful propulsion and shuttle capability of the Youneng Shuttle Rocket!
Whoosh! The next second, it was like a steel needle puncturing a balloon.
When the two people sitting on the spaceship realized what was happening, a new continent was already right in front of them!
At that moment, as the blue light on the spaceship's hull faded, a new message was brought back to Su Mo's mind.
"Here it is"
"The Kingdom of the Ocean God?"
