The deep starry sky, the dense clusters of stars, the mysterious and vast sky, and perhaps the crazy streaks that flashed past like auroras when space storms raged ….
In the eyes of someone who had just entered the universe, all of this might seem grand and magical.
But for Sheyan, or perhaps for anyone who had been looking at these sceneries for 72 hours, or even longer, especially when these were the only sceneries they could see, the degree of boredom was imaginable.
The magnetic field interference here was indeed very strong. This was not only reflected in the reading of the cover indicator, but also in some of the intuitive reactions of the body. They felt dizzy and even vomited. Perhaps they should be thankful for the strong protection of the II-class Kitty Hawk mothership and the superb flying skills of the special-class Captain Ruth. So far, they had not encountered too much danger.
Suddenly, Sheyan saw the red light on the bulkhead flashing. He quickly returned to his cabin and habitually put on the pilot's heavy and bulky leather suit. Then, without wasting any time, he sprinted to the training ground.
Similar situations had happened at least seven or eight times in the past few hours. Aldaris's deduction was correct. They were mainly learning how to fly a small aircraft of the Empire called the "Wasp".
This simple aircraft that could fly in outer space was similar to the appearance of helicopters in the atmosphere. It was fast, simple, convenient, practical, and of course, complicated.
So far, those complicated instruments and operations had not posed too much of a problem to Sheyan. Although he was not a piloting genius, the cockpit of the "Wasp" model was at most 1.5 square meters. Sheyan had already been exposed to the all-around mechanical instrument operation on a 5,000-ton ship when he was 15 years old. That represented a whole wall of work and learning.
In the training ground, General Mungo and General Fiji were both there. Behind them were a row of twenty military policemen. They looked very dignified, but compared to Sheyan's group of contestants, their strength could only be described as weak.
The real restraining effect on all contestants, was still the authority held in the hands of these two generals! Party Ace and the contestants now had a deep understanding of the vastness of the human Empire, so what they were in awe of was the Empire's almost unlimited territory, the terrifying technological power, and the suffocating army …. Even the Nightmare Realms that gave them power were created by the Empire. Just the thought of this was enough to make all the contestants hold their breaths.
General Mungo took a step forward and said in his usual iron-blooded manner, "I know you're all geniuses.
You're all geniuses. This is not a compliment. It's a fact I've told you after interacting with you for the past few days. "
Some of the contestants smiled when they heard General Mungo's words, but General Mungo's attitude took a sharp turn immediately.
"But if you don't remember every word I'm going to say, I can guarantee that the corpses of you geniuses will soon rot, decompose, and stink in the stomachs of other creatures. In the end, you'll become a pile of shit and be excreted. Because Captain Ruth has perfectly completed his mission. He has piloted the huge Kitty Hawk to his destination. Your journey has officially begun!"
At this time, General Fiji, who had been keeping a low profile all this while, stepped forward. With a tap of his finger, a star map flashed beside him.
"This is Alps Base 7. This is our current location. You can also call this place a bridgehead. The Kitty Hawk will transform into a space fortress here and wait for you. Your destination is 2.7 million kilometers away."
"The fact that the Kitty Hawk was able to reach this position in the terrible space-time storm is already a small probability event, so we'll stay here. You'll use the piloting skills you've learned over the past few days to drive the Wasp to Uplos, and then return!"
"We've already simulated the route we're going to take and entered it into the computer. It sounds simple, doesn't it? But I still think that what you need is not only courage, but also luck. "
At this point, General Fiji stepped back. General Mungo was holding a confidential document that he had just opened. A look of surprise flashed across his face. Although he quickly concealed it, it did not escape Sheyan's eyes.
"Now, according to military regulations, I'll explain the details of the mission to you. If you only rely on the information in the conscription order to complete the mission, then it can't be considered a special mission issued by the Empire Celebration at all."
"First of all, please allow me to introduce you to Uplos again. Uplos is just an official name. Strictly speaking, according to the rules of the Interstellar Common Law, the name of the planet should be given by the first discoverer. So, its real name should be Noctesaon. In human language, it's the sacred hunting ground! "
"What?!" Sheyan was shocked. "The hunting ground! And it's a hunting ground on the scale of a planet! That's really a big deal. "
"This planet's density, atmosphere, and native life forms have all been carefully modified. Even the intensity of the terrifying space-time storm we're facing now isn't naturally formed. You shouldn't be unfamiliar with the race behind the scenes who's doing all this. “
The holographic screen behind Mungo flashed, and a strange and ferocious head appeared. It had an exoskeleton mask that looked like the skull of a beast, tentacle-like snake hair, cold and merciless eyes, and a special symbol mark on its forehead ….
"How is this possible?!" Dardanian could not help but exclaim, "Aren't these the Predators? Why would these creatures, which supposedly exist in parallel worlds and are created by human imagination, appear here? "
General Fiji stepped forward and said meaningfully, "Trust me.
"Believe me, when I first saw this piece of information, I was definitely no less surprised than you guys were! The distance between illusion and reality has always been blurred. In fact, I think you should now understand why we created the Nightmare Realms and summoned you to complete all kinds of missions in parallel worlds. The strange appearance of the Predators in our world has already begun to show that if we allow the parallel worlds to develop unchecked, it will bring about great consequences. That is, the barrier between illusion and reality will be broken, and the parallel worlds will begin to try to merge with or even replace the main world! "
There was silence all around. Everyone was digesting General Fiji's words, but General Fiji was still going on.
"Do you know what the most sophisticated thing in the whole universe is? It's something that every normal human has: the brain! It's a super treasure constructed from 14 billion nerve cells. Even the most powerful man in history has only developed 17% of the brain's upper limit. Therefore, when the brainwaves of tens of millions of people are affected by the movie and start to think about the plot together, that kind of power will even affect the mysterious laws of space and time. Parallel worlds related to it will begin to emerge and gain momentum. "
But at this time, Hedi Curry raised his hand and said seriously, "I don't mean to offend you.
"I don't mean to offend you, General, but we should be in a hurry. Compared to these macroscopic things, I still think my life is more important."
Fiji's face turned gloomy for a moment, obviously feeling embarrassed. However, General Mungo had already stepped forward and said in a deep voice,
"Then let's talk about your relevant tasks! First of all, I want to warn you that the most dangerous creatures you may encounter are the Predators. They're a very powerful humanoid race, and their whole lives are inseparable from fighting. When they elect a leader, there will be very bloody battles for supremacy. When children grow up, they need to fight as adults. When they're bored, they'll fight to kill. When they argue, they'll fight for glory to decide the winner …. "
"But according to our investigation, our intelligence officers have sent back relevant information, which can be summarized as follows …. Their weapons are primitive yet advanced, their standards are cruel yet benevolent, and their behaviour is crazy yet rational."
"The so-called primitive weapons are only primitive in appearance. Needless to say, the killing habit of the Predators is to cut off the heads of their prey, skin them, and hang them upside down from a high place. This is quite brutal, but they won't take the initiative to attack unarmed and pregnant creatures. That's the origin of their cruelty and benevolence."
"As for their madness, it's because many Predators are even keen on challenging situations that are almost certain to kill them. Their feelings for this are more than the fanatical excitement of sex, but in the process of battle, they're as rational and calm as a block of ice that can hardly make any mistakes."
"… …."
After General Mungo told Party Ace a lot about the Predators, he returned to the topic at hand.
"Uplos … Oh, no, after the planet Hunting Ground was transformed by the Predators, it can be said to be a paradise for all kinds of ferocious creatures. They can thrive very happily there. The Predators also hunt for those strange and powerful creatures everywhere, and then release them on Hunting Ground to breed …." If you like this work, you're welcome to vote for it at qidian.com.
