Lil Pea sat on the silly cat's head and waved her little arms to say goodbye to her dad. The little one now understood why Hao Ren and the other adults in the family often had to travel. Coupled with her fast-growing mind, she was no longer as willful and clingy as she used to be. When necessary, the little one also knew to stay at home. As long as there was someone to keep an eye on her, Hao Ren could let the little one stay at home without any worries.
The cat girl carefully pushed her head against her fish master, smacked her lips, and recalled the taste of Wuyue's tail. She then meowed at Hao Ren and the others who stepped into the teleportation beam as a farewell.
When the teleportation beam flashed, Hao Ren had already led the others to the hinterland of the dark snowfield.
A large lavender spatial rift stood in mid-air. Near the spatial rift were several shimmering silver-white equipment. Around these equipment were a circle of light beam generators and warning devices that illuminated the surrounding snow.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
"I think instead of considering building a frost town in other parts of the snowfield, it's better to renovate around this spatial rift. Even if you don't build a fortress, at least build a shelter to shelter you from the wind and snow." Vivian stomped her feet to shake off the snowflakes that had just landed on her boots. "Alamanda on the other side has almost developed into a capital airport, and the portal here is still like a bicycle shed."
The unique cold of the dark snowfield came from all directions, and the three sirens, including the Queen, suddenly shivered. They were not as used to being in human form as Wuyue was. When they came, they were in their sea snake form. At this time, the tails of the three sirens were covered with a thin layer of ice, and the slightest movement of their bodies made a cracking sound. Shaqira crossed her arms and looked around. "What is this place? I feel that the water elements here are... very strange, difficult to control, and the cold they carry is colder than ordinary snow and ice. "
"This is the entrance to the Plane of Dreams." Hao Ren raised his hand and pointed to the spatial rift. "And this is located in the buffer zone between the real world and the Plane of Dreams. Everything here has been distorted by the atmosphere of the other world. Of course, it's a little strange."
The Queen curled her tail into a question mark. "Through this rift, we will reach our hometown?"
"No, we still need to calculate coordinates, detect, navigate, and check for hidden dangers. This is an adventure. Although it is your hometown, I don't believe it can be very safe." Hao Ren shrugged and took the lead to step across the spatial rift. "Let's go and broaden our horizons."
Everyone followed Hao Ren through the gate, and a scene that was completely different from the dark snowfield suddenly appeared in front of them.
This was a brand new silver hall.
The spatial rift was located in the center of the hall, and the faint purple light illuminated the surrounding area of more than ten meters. At the edge of the hall was a circular wall made of natural silver-white metal. The wall was more than ten meters tall, and it gradually formed an arc in the air. Above it was a layer of translucent light blue energy barrier, through which one could see the clear sky outside. The hall had a gorgeous golden floor, which was the only original structure of the teleportation station preserved — the square floor of the city of Alamanda.
Some of the newly installed advanced equipment was distributed on one side of the hall, and a few autonomous robots were flying around to debug the equipment. One of the autonomous robots sensed the return of its master and came over to report the progress of the work with a series of squeaky sounds. Hao Ren knocked on the mechanical squid's shell. "The work is going well. It looks like the teleportation station is completed... Oh, is the nearby broadcast tower also completed?"
The Queen of the Sirens hissed and retreated a few meters when she saw the thing, her face full of vigilance. "What is this?!"
"My workers... Katreina, you don't have to be so nervous." Hao Ren saw the Queen's reaction and could not help but laugh. "They are very kind guys. They are just working here. This teleportation station was in ruins before. If they had not been busy for so long, you would not even be able to breathe Earth's air here today. "
The Queen of the Sirens regained her modesty, but still kept a vigilant distance. "I just have a psychological trauma when I see tentacles... especially this kind of tentacle swinging around under a big head."
Lily was puzzled. "Then when you turned into a king squid, didn't you have a psychological trauma?"
The Queen of the Sirens was stunned for a moment, and a sudden sense of depression hit her. "Oh my God, I have lost a possibility in my life forever..."
Vivian was stunned. "It seems that the psychological trauma is quite serious."
Hao Ren looked around and felt as if he had forgotten something. After thinking for a long time, he suddenly realized something. "Damn! I forgot to inform Becky! Wait a minute — "
Hao Ren quickly turned on the communicator. In order to keep abreast of the situation in Holletta, he had asked Becky to carry a communicator with her. After a few calls, he heard Becky's lazy voice. "Huh? Landlord? "
"What are you doing over there?"
"Me? I'm participating in an event, and I'm bragging in person. Landlord, what's up? "
"It's important," Hao Ren said quickly. "Have you caught the brain monster?"
"Not yet," Becky's voice suddenly became serious. "What's wrong?"
Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief. "Inform Ophra not to alert the snake after finding a clue, and not to lead people to catch it yourself! The body of that thing has overwhelming mental power on mortals, and it can only be sealed by special means. Inform me immediately after determining the location of the brain monster, understand? "
Becky quickly replied, "Got it. By the way, what are you doing now, Landlord?"
Hao Ren sighed. "I'm going to blow something up."
Becky's voice suddenly became happy. "Blow something up?! Hey, I like this! Meatballs or steak? Can you give me some when you're done? "
Hao Ren almost choked on his own blood. "Four!"
Becky said, "... Landlord, your life is still so magnificent?"
After hanging up, Hao Ren curled his lips and said, "Becky, this guy... Let's go, our time is precious."
He released the Petrachelys from the dimensional pocket and led everyone to board the spacecraft. They then directly passed through the transparent barrier above the Alamanda teleportation station and ascended into the sky. The golden wasteland below could be seen as the spacecraft ascended. From the images from the external monitors, they could see busy scenes of work everywhere in the city, and outside the towering city walls, several silver-white steeple devices had begun to operate. The engineering plans left by Hao Ren had been carried out efficiently. The autonomous robots and construction equipment were working day and night, and now the planet was developing into a real stronghold.
The siren queen and her two followers on the bridge looked at everything in front of them in amazement. They realized from the holographic projection that they were in the ruins of another race's civilization, and the ruins were being rebuilt into a large stronghold. Shaqira could not help but look at Hao Ren. "What is this place?"
"Tannagost, another destroyed civilization. They were even more unlucky than you. When the disaster came, they could not launch the exiled spacecraft, and the self-rescue technology they chose did not work, so they went extinct, leaving only hollow echoes on the planet. The steeples are eliminating the echoes, but it has nothing to do with you. "
Shaqira poked the seat in front of her with the tip of her tail. "Do you know what happened in this universe?"
"Yes."
"Then... what do you do?" Shaqira finally could not hold back. "Of course, you don't have to answer me. I'm just too curious. The actions of your group have completely surpassed any human and otherworldling. "
The spacecraft gradually left the atmosphere, and the pale gold and grey-green planet surface of Tannagost gradually moved away from the external monitors. The glow of CARS was rising from the other side of the horizon, like a mercury moon. Hao Ren looked at the magnificent scenery in space and called up the star map. "It's a long story. Let's talk about it on the way. MDT, start calculating the star map. "
Although the star map stored in the database of Nasaton was reliable, it did not actually meet the specifications of a cosmic voyage. Back then, the sirens did not have the technology to sail to any point in the universe at will, so their star map could only mark the range they could explore as much as possible. Compared to the whole space, it was just a boat in the blue sea.
Marking the position of a star in the universe was a complicated subject. You could use a few supernovae to form a line to indicate the position of a star, or you could detect enough stars to build a complex three-dimensional coordinate system. But in any case, you had to face a problem: the universe was too vast, and it was changing all the time. The stars were constantly moving, and as time went by, the coordinates of any star map would become more and more inaccurate. The Xi Ling Celestials scanned snapshots of the entire universe through something like the sovereign hub, so they did not have to worry about this. But the ordinary races could not. They had to find a way to offset this "star map deviation", and one of the ways was to map as large a range of stars as possible: enough celestial bodies and a large enough span of the star map could allow them to have more backup lines to determine the position of a star.
However, the star map of the sirens was only a basic star map. Perhaps it was not that accurate at the beginning, and after 10,000 years, its accuracy had been greatly reduced. So the MDT needed to recalibrate the starlight and overlap the current real universe with what was recorded on the star map to determine the position of Io.
