Han Jia's mechanical arm lightly touched the shadow of the rock.
Without a sound, the bottom of the rock suddenly caved in. Everyone in the starship stared in awe. They could not see Han Jia, but they could see the change in the rock. The rock, which had not a single crack in it, suddenly caved in, revealing an entrance large enough for a lifeboat to pass through.
Ye Chong flew Han Jia in without hesitation.
It was a starship, a starship camouflaged by rocks. Ye Chong could not help but admire Old Xu's design. Camouflaging a ship with a thick layer of rock was a brilliant idea. In space, all kinds of rocks are very common. They float endlessly in the universe, and no one knows when they will reach the end.
Most starships would not pay attention to rocks like this, since they were the most common and inconspicuous objects in space. However, using rocks as camouflage was not without its drawbacks. The cost of camouflage was high, not because the rocks were expensive, but because it was a huge project to cover a starship with so many thick rocks. The camouflaged starship would move much slower, and would not be able to perform warp jumps. If someone found out, they would die a horrible death.
This starship must have been built a long time ago. Old Xu's meticulousness and foresight were evident. However, even someone like him could not escape death. Fate was truly unpredictable at times.
Ye Chong piloted Han Jia and successfully entered the starship. There were no checkpoints along the way that required identification. Ye Chong quickly reached the core area of the starship, which was the main control room of the starship.
Ye Chong took out the blue chip and inserted it into the photon processor.
Beep.
"Authentication complete. Passkey confirmed. All procedures activated. Starship Rock welcomes you, sir. "The melodious electronic voice sounded like a heavenly melody to Ye Chong.
He did a thorough inspection of the starship. The starship's internal structure was very reasonable, and it was well-stocked. It even had a very advanced alchemy lab.
"Tsk tsk, this starship is interesting. The person who came up with this idea is really good." The little boy looked around and commented like an old man. Then he pursed his lips and added, "Everything else is just so-so." Everyone had already left the starship and arrived at Rock.
The others were curiously looking around. No one had expected that there would be such a different world within a rock. Fei Si's eyes lit up the moment she saw the alchemy lab. While the lab was not big, the equipment inside was of high quality. This alchemy lab was prepared for him by Elder Xu, so it would not be bad. In fact, the starship's performance was excellent. After all, it was used for escape. How could Elder Xu be careless?
The little boy asked calmly, "What's your plan? Where are you taking us? "He didn't seem to care about his own safety. Then he added, "Strong magnetic interference has been implemented in the vicinity of Zhou Jian. Don't even think about jumping through space."
Ye Chong had already brought up the star path map from the photon processor, and he began to ponder.
The little boy reminded him, "Don't go out. This starship may be designed to fool the patrol teams, but it's not a big deal. However, if they encountered the fleet of the Three Great Clans, it would be very difficult to deceive them, let alone escape. Besides, the ones leading the team this time are Huang Jiming, Ye Yin, and Snow Lan. All three of them are very careful, especially Snow Lan, who is very cautious. If they encounter a rock like ours along the way, I'm sure they will destroy every single one of them. I don't want to be sunk by them. "
The little boy's bodyguards all had strange expressions on their faces. Only the man with the scar next to the little boy looked indifferent, without any reaction.
Ye Chong studied the star path map. Since the star path was already implemented with strong magnetic interference, warping through space was impossible. This meant that Ye Chong and the rest had to fly normally. Flying normally took a long time, and was a very boring task.
"Do you have any objections?" Ye Chong asked the little boy.
The little boy looked thoughtful. Three minutes later, he pointed at the star path map and said seriously, "Let's get to this place first. Hmm, it shouldn't be a problem to fool the regular patrol team. Judging by the time, the fleet of the Three Great Clans should not have arrived yet. " It was a strange thing to see a six or seven year old boy with a serious expression. Even Ye Chong, who had a strong sense of acceptance, found it strange.
However, the little boy's words were clear. Ye Chong asked, "And then?"
"And then we go this way!" The little boy pointed.
"Nebula? We go into the nebula?" Ye Chong was surprised. The rest of them could fit an egg in their mouths.
The little boy's eyes showed the vicissitudes of life that did not match his age. His childish voice was filled with mixed emotions, "There is someone behind this blue nebula!"
"Someone?" Fei Si gasped, and could not help but refute, "Impossible! How could there be someone behind this? "Old Jalopy's face twitched a little.
"There is someone." The little boy said slowly. At this moment, he was like an old man who had experienced the world for a long time. His slow voice carried a strange sense of oppression. "In this world, not everyone likes modern technology. A long, long time ago, there was a huge divide between people because of technology. A group of people who believed in nature and opposed technology left He Yue galaxy, looking for a galaxy suitable for human habitation. In a sense, it could not be called a star field. It was just a star area that contained 32 habitable planets. This galaxy is geographically hidden, and they have cut off contact with the outside world. After so many years, not many people know their exact location. "
The little boy paused, took a glance at the crowd, and said softly, "This is the natural galaxy that disappeared in history."
Everyone was shocked speechless by this secret.
"The Xi Feng Tribe was split from the natural galaxy." The little boy's words were like a bomb dropped in everyone's mind. The Xi Feng Tribe, one of the Three Aristocratic Families, was split from the natural galaxy. How could they not be shocked?
"According to the books, the two most popular occupations there are martial artists and mentalists. That is the true home of human limitology! " The little boy's face showed a look of fascination, but it did not last for a few seconds. He suddenly jumped up and cheered, "Finally, we can go find the legendary natural galaxy. I've wanted to go for a long time. "
"Is there really a natural galaxy?" Fei Si asked Old Jalopy curiously.
Old Jalopy showed a pained and nostalgic expression, "He's right!"
The little boy looked at Old Jalopy in shock.
Old Jalopy's deep voice was tinged with sadness, "There is a natural galaxy in history. Thirty years ago, I was thirty-five years old, and I was at the peak of my passion. Once, by chance, I found out about the existence of the natural galaxy. I am a student of ancient machinery, but there are very few of them left. At that time, I was tempted to search for the legendary Natural Star Zone. I just wanted to see the real ancient machinery. With this goal in mind, I immediately invited nine like-minded companions to enter this nebula. "
Everyone listened attentively. Fei Si did not expect Old Jalopy to have such a legendary experience.
"We found the natural galaxy." Old Jalopy said calmly, "Only two of us came back alive. My old friend passed away last year. "
"Ah!" Everyone exclaimed at the same time. Even the little boy, who always pretended to be mature, could not help but gasp. He quickly went to Old Jalopy and asked, "Old man, did you really enter the natural galaxy?"
Looking at the little boy's naive expression, Old Jalopy's solemn face broke into a smile. He did not mind the little boy calling him old man. He patted the little boy's head and said, "Yes, we did."
"What does it look like in there?" The little boy was curious.
"It's a very …" After thinking for a while, the old man smiled bitterly, "I don't know how to describe it. Sigh, you can't feel it unless you're there."
"Ahhhh! I want to go! I want to go! " The little boy stood up and shouted. He was like a little kid who could not get his favorite toy.
"But it's dangerous in there. We were very lucky that time. We even encountered a starship from the Xue Lai clan. I don't know what happened to them. If it wasn't for our luck, we would have been shot down by them, "Old Jalopy said with lingering fear.
Listening to them, Ye Chong stared at the star map on the holographic screen for a long time. He could not find a way to avoid the fleet of the three aristocratic families. It seemed like the only way was to enter the nebula and try his luck. Ye Chong suddenly realized that he was often faced with such helpless choices.
Fortunately, someone had gone in before. Ye Chong felt relieved. After thinking it through, he asked Old Jalopy, "Do you still remember the way?"

Today, I got stuck on a plot and fell into a slump. After thinking for a long time, I finally got it. Hmm, I recommend Angel Oscar's Legend of Destiny and Tang Family's Zodiac Guardian.
