… How long would this thing need to fly?
Lin had been considering this question for a long time.
The seven Star Surveyors had been inside this flying object for many years …
During this time, Lin's garden in the void had grown larger and larger, and the third Void base had completely become Lin's base. Lin had absorbed all of the underground Creators and created a forest in the void around it.
This forest was a combination of various' void plants' that Lin created. Even the radish, Lin had cultivated a new breed. They could jump in the void and collect nutrients from the meteorites, bringing these nutrients to the White Paste Fungi to be raised, forming an interesting relationship.
The three brains that Lin used to gather the microscopic particles had also begun to operate in the base.
Everything was progressing smoothly, except for this thing.
The Void's flying object …
It was hard to say how fast it was because the target was too far away, and according to the route shown in the controller, the target of several hundred million kilometers should have arrived by now, but it was still flying.
This flying object didn't have any windows or anything like that, but the display on the surface of the controller was able to display the scenery outside, and it could be seen that the surroundings were all void.
It had flown out of the meteorites a long time ago, then continued to fly in this empty space. Because there was no air here, it might never stop … until it crashed into something.
The flying object could only fly in a straight line, it couldn't turn or dodge. Fortunately, there were very few objects in the void, so it hadn't crashed into anything for several years.
But this was indeed … very boring.
This controller couldn't see into the distance. In other words, it couldn't see how far away the target was. It couldn't see the stars in the distance. There was a notification on it indicating how far away the target was, but it had already passed it, and it was still indicating that the target was 0 meters away …
The Void seemed to use their height as a unit of measurement, which was about 3 meters.
There were indeed many problems with this flying object. She didn't know if it was because it had deviated from its path, or if there was a problem with its design, or if there was a problem when it was created.
Because of this, Lin didn't plan on waiting like this anymore. Lin now planned to install a unit outside this flying object to observe the outside world …
He had to see it for himself to know how far it was from the Tumbler with a diameter of 100 kilometers.
For this purpose, Lin had disassembled the three Star Surveyors and made them into different units. One of them became a door, while the other two became a large number of 'sky observation spheres'. These were small units that could climb all over the outer shell of flying objects and observe the scenery in all directions.
Now, a large number of sky observation balls had floated to the exit of the flying object. At this time, the first door slowly opened. After the Sky Observation Sphere was out, it closed and began to absorb the air that had leaked out.
After absorbing almost all the air. The second door opened, and what appeared in front of the celestial sphere was a vast void.
The celestial sphere used its tentacles to stick to the outer shell of the flying object and crawled out. It then quickly dispersed to various parts of the outer shell of the flying object.
If they were in a place with air, they would be blown away by the strong airflow. However, in the void, it was as if they could not feel the movement of the object they were riding on.
As for the environment outside …
It also looked like it wasn't moving.
Each of the celestial spheres was equipped with a pair of eyes that could see very far. Lin could see the incomparably beautiful starry sky around her, as well as the misty light …
However, they were too far away. Looking at them, they looked like they were still. It was very difficult to calculate how fast this flying object was …
Lin found that there were some problems with the design of this flying object. It had a conical structure. This kind of thing was very good in an air environment, but it was meaningless in the void. It could be made into more efficient shapes, more things could be placed inside it, and more jets could be placed to spray in different directions to avoid danger.
At present, Lin still couldn't see where the target stone was. However, one of the celestial spheres saw something in front of the flying object.
It was … a rather large object. It was completely white and looked like a combination of ice blocks. It had a diameter of about 20 kilometers. Although it was very large, it was not as large as the previous target.
If it continued to fly like this, the ball would probably hit it in a day. This flying object could not change direction and had no weapons.
She didn't have enough materials and time to make any weapons … what should she do?
Then let it crash into the ice. Lin would also be able to see what the ice looked like. Lin was already prepared to scatter into pieces. In any case, the flying object might have already missed its target, so Lin planned to scatter the troops on top of the ice into pieces.
Then, she would see if she could establish a base in the distant void.
With that in mind, Lin waited for the target to approach. Soon, one day and one night had passed …
[Target approaching, about to collide.] The controller inside the flying object kept issuing notifications. The notifications were very slow. Furthermore, there was another problem …
There was no chance of them colliding …
It turned out that this object was blocking the flying object's path. However, after one day and one night, Lin noticed that it had moved to the side by about 10 meters. This way, it would just brush past Lin's flying object and not collide with it.
The celestial spheres watched as the target approached. Then … Swoosh!
The huge ice block appeared less than 20 meters away from Lin's flying object. However, due to its extremely fast speed, it passed by the flying object in less than a second and rapidly retreated …
Lin watched as it retreated. Suddenly, Lin saw an inconceivable scene. The huge ice block suddenly ejected a large amount of white substance from its side. It immediately turned in another direction.
Could this thing move on its own?
But maybe there was some kind of volcano-like structure on it? If only I had known, I would've made a bomb to blow it up. Lin didn't think that there would be anything on this ice block.
Seeing the target getting further and further away, she felt that there was no way she could get past it.
Forget it, I'll just ignore it.
Lin continued to stay on top of the flying object. It continued to fly in the darkness of the Void, and it continued to fly ….
Just like that, they continued to fly for many years.
The surrounding was still the void. There was nothing. Lin couldn't sense anything. Because the surrounding things were too far away, she couldn't even tell how fast the flying object was flying or which direction it was flying in.
Lin decided to give up on it. She put the troops inside into a state of hibernation. Only a few maintained a low-energy state to observe the surroundings.
On the other side, the group of meteorites in the void could be said to be rather prosperous.
This place was very different from before. Lin used water and sunlight to create a huge jungle. This jungle had many kinds of 'plants', vines, trees, and flowers with huge leaves. They covered more than 10 kilometers of the meteorite area and perfectly occupied any position that could absorb sunlight.
Some small creatures lived here.
They looked like radishes. A group of small white creatures jumped among the meteorites. They moved quickly and happily. An older radish was the leader of the group. It led the group to jump onto a meteorite full of green leaves.
These leaves were one meter wide. They seemed to have grown out of the rocks and covered the entire meteorite.
The radish leader led the group to observe the surroundings. Then, it shook its body slightly. The radishes around it immediately moved. They used their bodies to push the leaves away, then used their bodies to rub against some clay-like substance under the leaves.
The 'clay' stuck to the carrots' shells, and when the time was right, the leader shook his body once more. This time, the carrots all gathered together and looked at a floating rock about thirty meters away. Then … they jumped!
The radishes leaped into the air and slowly flew through the void. But halfway through, a group of … sand suddenly appeared on their right.
The radishes that couldn't dodge in the void were touched by the sand. When the sand came into contact with the radishes, the sand immediately gathered around the radishes and wrapped them up. The other radishes saw this and couldn't do anything about it …
The moment they landed on the meteorite, all the radishes immediately fled at full speed. After that, the radish wrapped in sand slowly floated to its original position. It could be seen that it was struggling slightly inside …
The sand monsters were the radishes' natural enemies on the moon. It was the same here. They could also jump and 'intercept' the radishes that couldn't dodge in the air. This group of creatures had also learned how to survive in the void.
The radish leader led the group and jumped over meteorites one after another. The rocks here were like small islands to them. No matter how far they were, as long as they jumped hard, they could always fly to them. But the farther they flew, the higher the possibility of being 'intercepted'. So, they would try their best to jump on rocks that were closer to them.
After jumping for a few kilometers, the radishes returned to their nest, a meteorite with a diameter of 30 meters.
Although this place was barren, it had a warm atmosphere. The radishes found a cave on the surface of the rock. The entrance of the cave seemed to be covered by a layer of gelatinous material. They drilled through the gelatinous material and entered the cave.
It was quite warm in the cave, and there was a large amount of … water floating everywhere.
The radishes shook their bodies with all their might, shaking out the clay they had collected and mixing it with the floating water …
This was … their daily life. Floating astronomy.
