"The engine has been damaged … There is no way to escape the gravitational field. Collision will occur in 180 seconds."
"How did it hit us? The gravitational field … What is that place! "
In the command room, all the images kept … flashing.
Not long ago, the missile that the ship used to attack the Dark Algae had somehow hit them, and this happened.
In the flashing images, they could barely see the scenery outside the ship … In front of the ship, about hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, there was a huge … thick fog.
At least it looked like thick fog. Its diameter was close to 100 kilometers, and its surface was cyan.
This cyan fog had a strong gravitational force. The ship that was hit by the missile was now unable to escape the gravitational force. It was now being pulled toward the fog together with the Universe Snail.
"What is that?" The flashing images slowly returned to normal. Ershi Min in the command room also saw the fog in front of them.
"Unable to determine the phenomenon. There is no record of it in the data," the ship's system said. "Searching for similar records … No record."
"This system is really useless!" One Ershi Min said. "Just now the missile hit the ship … Now it says it doesn't know what the phenomenon in front of us is. What should we do?"
"You can say that you are useless, but you can't say that I am useless," the system said. The System said, "Because I was designed by you. Everything about me operates according to your ideas."
"I didn't design it!" Ershi Min slapped the image in front of him, causing the 3D image to flash.
"No matter what it is, being attracted to it will not end well," one Ershi Min said. "We need to leave this place. Activate the escape pod."
"Escape? How are we going to survive if we escape? This is the void. We need the supplies inside the Universe Snail! "
"Sorry, I'm afraid you can't use the escape pod," the system said. "The escape pod was destroyed not long ago."
"What?" The few Ershi Min there were shocked. One Ershi Min asked, "How was it destroyed?"
"The missile did not only destroy part of the engine," the system said. "The escape pod was also affected."
"… Why did the missile fly back and hit us!" Ershi Min said angrily. "Are you controlling it? System? "
"I didn't control it. The reason is unknown." The System said, "It's very likely that I've been invaded. It's all your fault for not installing the highest level of protection for me."
"When it is really safe, I will definitely tear you apart," Ershi Min said.
The System said, "Your anger is meaningless. I am only pointing out your mistakes."
Lin noticed that this system seemed to be particularly good at angering the Ershi Min. Lin felt that this might have been … pre-programmed.
Perhaps, the arrival of this group of Ershi Min here was a … conspiracy.
Watching the situation unfold, Lin felt that this was indeed a possibility. After all, they were constantly encountering various situations, and the System was still trying to provoke them.
However, the Ershi Min did not continue talking to the system. They regained their composure and discussed what to do next.
They had many ideas, but in the end, they decided to implement the previous plan.
That was to get rid of the Dark Algae and let the Universe Snail … return to normal.
This was the only feasible solution. If the Universe Spiral returned to normal, it might drag the battleship away from the influence of the fog's gravity.
After thinking about this, they quickly tried to contact their companions inside the Universe Spiral.
The signal was still as blurry as before, but they still managed to send out some signals. The team inside the Universe Spiral also received them.
After understanding the situation inside the battleship, they decided to climb directly to the back of the Universe Spiral and blow up the Dark Algae.
That was the only thing they could do now.
"We will definitely succeed. We will not fail, because we are a brand new civilization. We will start a brand new life under the stars!"
At the end of the discussion, the group of Ershi Min encouraged themselves and quickly began to move.
The Ershi Min inside the battleship were responsible for observation and communication, while the Ershi Min inside the Universe Spiral tried to climb onto the outer shell of the Universe Spiral.
This task did not seem difficult. After all, there was no creature to stop them. The only thing they were worried about was the Dark Algae.
This was because they all agreed that the Dark Algae affected all the Ershi Min inside the battleship and was also the culprit that caused the Universe Spiral to commit suicide.
In fact, they currently had no way to detect the connection between this and the Dark Algae. However, the Dark Algae was the only suspicious creature, so they placed their bet on it.
There were also a few Ershi Min who thought that this might be the work of the System. Because the System's behavior was very suspicious … so the few Ershi Min inside the battleship began to investigate the System.
But no matter what they did, there did not seem to be enough time.
"Damn it … it's too close!"
The Ershi Min inside the Universe Spiral was still looking for the path to the back of the Universe Spiral. And the Ershi Min inside the battleship was nervously … watching the image in the command room.
The huge fog was only a few thousand kilometers away from them. Within this distance, the battleship and the Universe Spiral were flying faster and faster … towards the fog.
The surface of the fog flashed with light, like clouds brewing lightning. Seeing this scene, the Ershi Min was terrified.
What Lin found interesting was that the fog's … 'gravity' was not the same as the gravity of a normal Tumbler.
It was only acting on the battleship and the Universe Spiral. In other words, it was deliberately … pulling the battleship and the Universe Spiral over.
This was not a 'natural' gravity.
It was very abnormal.
"You still haven't found the way up … ah ah ah!"
A scream came from the command room of the battleship. Everything inside was constantly … vibrating and floating.
[Unknown situation detected. The gravity maintaining device has been disturbed,] the System said. "Gravity removed."
"You useless machine!" One of the Ershi Min shouted angrily. "Why can't you understand anything?!"
"You can't blame me for this. You have to blame yourselves for not giving me enough information," the System said. "So, in this critical moment, I am unable to use the explanation."
[After 10 seconds, we will enter the unknown 'Fog Zone',] the System said. "Probability of survival: very low."
"Shut up!" One of the Ershi Min raised his weapon and fired a shot at the ground. Other than letting the bullet ricochet around, there was no other purpose.
