Chapter 1306: Great Opportunity
Qu Jianlei's tricks really fooled Xiaohu.
The key is that it sounds like that in theory, and it really is the case.
"Then take it back!" Xiao Hu still trusted the boss more after all, "Boss, you have to help me!"
"Of course!" Qu Jianlei answered casually, "Is everything back to normal now?"
It has indeed returned to normal, even space positioning can be used.
But this space positioning...is not that accurate.
On the interstellar map, it is clearly the same distance, but in the Girl Star Domain, the difference may be hundreds or thousands of times.
This feeling makes people particularly uncomfortable. There is an indescribable sense of separation between theory and reality.
You think you are holding a navigation map with a scale of 1:100, but in fact, the map may be with a scale of 1:10,000.
Then I don’t know when, it will jump to 1:100,000.
Qu Jianlei has several coordinates in his hand, all of which were collected before, and he said they may have research value.
The coordinates are correct and we can get there, but the distance... we can't look at the coordinates!
When traveling, we often lose our 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 locate its position in space and not lose its position, otherwise it would definitely get lost.
But even if I could locate it, it would still be quite uncomfortable, as if I was always jumping between the misalignment between perception and instruments.
In the Girl Star Domain, there is not only chaotic energy and an ever-changing environment, but also a strong sense of dislocation and separation.
This feeling makes people a little crazy, especially since they are all people with extremely strong perception.
Two days after entering the Girls' Star Domain, everyone gradually began to adapt to this feeling.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but sigh, "Fortunately, I can slowly adapt. Otherwise, I would have lost the ability to sense danger."
When sailing in space, the various equipment on the starship can detect various dangers, but for people of their level of cultivation, their own perception of danger is also very important.
In particular, this kind of perception tends to be foresighted, places great emphasis on intuition, and belongs to the mysterious side.
At this moment, an electronic synthesized voice came from the central control room, "There is an unknown energy group on the lower right front side, do you want to avoid it?"
They had also passed through some unknown energy groups before.
However, everyone was not in a good condition at that time, so they all chose to avoid it and continue to go deeper.
The outer edge of the Girl Star Region has been explored by countless people.
Although the interior of the star field is not static and energy clusters will float around, the probability of harvesting good things on the outer edge is very low.
We have been moving forward for more than two days now, and we haven't gone deep into the star field, but we are no longer just wandering around outside.
But Qu Jianlei still felt that it was a bit fringe, "Do you want to go and take a look?"
The nutrient spread out his hands, indicating that he didn't care, and Old Mrs. Jia didn't say anything either.
However, Dorgan said, "With our strength...why don't we go a little deeper?"
After all, she is the oldest and has the most experience. She has been to the Girl Star Domain many times and looks down on those ordinary gains.
At this moment, the ruler jumped, "This feels... interesting, let's go take a look."
It was nothing to be ashamed of, and since it had suggested it, the starship headed in that direction.
It took half a day for the regimental-level ship to reach the edge of the energy group, and the warning light in the main control room lit up.
"The energy intensity ahead is high, and the existing protective shield is not strong enough to be safe."
When sailing in the Girl Star Region, the strength of the regimental-level ship's protective shield is always at 20%.
This level of protection is already quite high, equivalent to a company-class ship with full-load protection.
In addition, the regiment-level ships are thicker and tougher, which far exceeds the protection of company-level ships.
Apart from official teams, most of those who come to explore the Girl Star Domain are armed merchant ships.
Except for specially made merchant ships, such as the weird beast like the one owned by the young master of the Shui Group, the defense of merchant ships is comparable to that of the company-class ships.
Strictly speaking, merchant ships are slightly inferior to company-class ships in terms of defense.
Qu Jianlei believed that those armed merchant ships dared to venture into the Girl Star Region, and 20% of the protection would be enough when they were on the road.
The key is that the regimental-level ships are too large, and it is too expensive to maintain a high level of protection for a long time.
The current 20% protective shield is not enough, so let’s improve it.
He discussed with Xiao Hu, raised the protective shield to 50%, and then plunged directly into the energy ball.
The vision suddenly became blurred, and everything inside was gray. The starship's searchlight could not illuminate very far.
Fortunately, the starship has other detection equipment, so it is still possible to detect within 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers.
The turbulence in the energy ball was extremely violent, and even a regimental-level ship would shake from time to time.
Dorgan said, "This ball of energy is a bit too violent. Maybe there is something good in it."
Not long after the starship sailed, large meteorites appeared in front of it, moving in an irregular manner.
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 is rare is that even in such a violent environment, the cross-section is extremely smooth, with no visible signs of impact or weathering.
"What kind of weapon caused this?" Nutrient frowned. It was obvious that this was definitely not a natural creation.
"It's probably not a technological weapon," Dorgan replied in a deep voice. "It's most likely left behind by a practitioner of divine writing."
"Hiss..." Old Lady Jia took a breath and rubbed her forehead, "It almost hurt my soul."
It turned out that after she discovered the abnormality, she subconsciously released her spiritual perception, but she felt that her spiritual perception seemed to be pierced by a sharp cone.
"Be careful," the ruler jumped, "Don't use your spiritual sense to perceive casually, some powerful people's thoughts can last for a long time!"
When the starship arrived at the meteorite, everyone discussed and decided to go out of the cabin to take a look.
The vacuum door opened, and the violent energy turbulence outside rushed in instantly.
Fortunately, Tianyin and Claire were not standing at the cabin door waiting, 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 forces everyone to activate spiritual energy defense.
Duogan took out the Wind-Fixing Bead and asked, "Do you want to use it?"
"Not for now," the others shook their heads.
Everyone knows that although Dogan is very powerful, the time he has spent practicing with the Spirit Gathering Array is too short and he cannot drive magic weapons for a long time.
Everyone went out of the cabin despite the turbulence and looked at the cross-section of the meteorite.
Before in the cabin, everyone's feeling was not very obvious, but now after leaving the cabin, they felt that the cross-section was vaguely releasing an indescribable pressure.
The pressure was very weak, but of extremely high quality, with an unusually sharp will. Even Dogan couldn't help but frown.
"My goodness, this kind of pressure is definitely at the out-of-body level... It can be maintained for this long, maybe it can be even higher."
Qu Jianlei did not use his spiritual sense to perceive, but just scanned with his eyes, carefully guarding against the pressure.
Then he felt a slight pain in his brow, "Is this... sword intent?"
"It's sword intent." The ruler twisted slightly. "It should be the work of a master who has left his body. If it's not sword intent, it would be hard to maintain it for so long."
"Hmm?" The nutrient turned his head and looked over. "What is sword intent?"
"It's the intention when drawing the sword," Qu Jianlei didn't mind explaining it, "I don't really understand it either... It's hard to master anyway."
Old Lady Jia suddenly said, "If you feel this pressure carefully, it will strengthen your mental strength."
"That's for sure," the ruler twisted again, "but too much is as bad as too little. You need to rest after hammering for a while, otherwise it will hurt your mind."
Dorgan sighed regretfully, "It's a pity that there is no space capsule that big enough to take it with you."
"The space equipment cannot be taken away," Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, "and cannot carry the sword intent."
Nutrients and the others closed their eyes, silently feeling the sword's power tempering their souls.
Mu Guang did not close his eyes. Although he was also sensing the sword intent, he wanted to think about something else.
Then he unexpectedly discovered, "There are still some small pits on the cross section...Is it a trace of the laser cannon?"
"It's normal, right?" Mrs. Jia replied calmly, "It must have been discovered before, but this kind of mentality is really not advisable."
Obviously, the people who discovered this place before also noticed the sword intent and knew it was extraordinary.
But this act of wantonly destroying the remains of a powerful being is really... a bit excessive.
However, the people who come to explore are all kinds of people with all kinds of mindsets, needless to say.
Qu Jianlei stood for two hours and felt a severe pain in his brow, so he took the initiative to step back, "I can't do it anymore, it's time to stop."
Before him, Mu Guang had already retreated, and the remaining four were still holding on.
The most amazing thing was the fourth in command, who 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 retreated, "If we want to take it away, we can only tow it with a regimental-level ship."
Dorgan followed closely, "Take this thing away... I'm afraid it's not suitable to leave it on a habitable planet."
"It depends on the situation," Qu Jianlei made a decision, "If there is nothing else to gain from this trip, we can try to take it away."
"Otherwise, it's just a chance after all, so it's okay to leave it to others."
A meteorite with a diameter of more than ten kilometers...it must be a regimental-level ship, otherwise it would not be able to land it on a habitable planet.
Everyone returned to the regimental ship, released the spirit gathering formation and rested for two days.
During this process, Tianyin and Claire also tried to feel the sword's power, but... they couldn't even last five minutes.
Ultimately, it’s because my cultivation is not enough.
Among all people, the Fourth Master is the most adaptable to the sword intent, perhaps it has something to do with his gold attribute?
Qu Jianlei was not jealous. As a cultivator, everyone should have his or her own strengths, right?
After resting for two days, everyone tried to sense the sword intent again, but they were shocked to find that they could last less than half of the time as last time!
"Let's stop for now," Qu Jianlei said, "Don't do it too often, otherwise it may cause irreparable damage!"
