Originally, he thought that he had found a planet full of dinosaurs and King Kong monsters, but he didn't expect that in addition to thunderbirds, there were also dragons, unicorns, and fairies.
Coupled with the portal to Earth's Storm Island, William couldn't help but guess that this was the true origin of those magical creatures on Earth.
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the distance between this planet and Earth. He compared it to the planet 275 light years away that he and Captain Marvel went to together. He found that this planet was very close to Earth.
If he had to estimate it, it was probably less than one-twentieth of 275 light years away, which was about a dozen light years away.
With this estimate, in order to cover up the fact that he had sent out a spacecraft and a probe, William patted the Sentinel armor that he was wearing.
Following his idea, a large piece of the armor was separated and turned into a two-meter tall transmitter tower that was as thick as an arm.
He said to the puzzled Laura, "To determine if this is an alien planet, we just need to try and see if the signal transmitted from here can reach Earth."
"That's a good idea." Laura happily nodded, but soon she worriedly asked, "But what if this place is very far away from Earth, thousands or even tens of thousands of light years away?
How many years would it take for us to receive a signal from Earth? "
"Haha, don't worry. If a layman like you can think of this problem, of course I can think of it."
Laura pinched his arm. William smiled and shamelessly said that he had invented the Cree spaceship that he had seized from the Skrull people and the technology that he had researched on Sunday.
"According to the principle of quantum distortion, the transmission speed of information can reach more than ten thousand times the speed of light. The technology that I invented can reach a million times the speed of light.
In other words, if this planet is ten thousand light years away from Earth, it would take 3.65 days for the signal to reach Earth.
A thousand light years is 8.76 hours, a hundred light years is 53 minutes, and ten light years is 5.3 minutes.
Maybe by the time we finish eating the barbecue, the signal will have already been sent back. "
"Let's hope so."
Laura, who didn't know the truth, couldn't bear to disturb William's optimistic attitude. She smiled and handed the T-rex skewers that she had cooked to his mouth.
"Hurry up and try the skewers I made. I added some of the spices I collected here, and they were all tested on King Kong."
Before roasting the meat, William had silently released a Poison Detection Spell. Thus, when he smelled the aroma of the roasted meat, he immediately bit into the large piece of Tyrannosaurus rex meat.
As soon as the meat entered his mouth, William's eyes lit up. He was already very picky when it came to food. "It tastes really good, and your skills are pretty good too, dear."
Hearing William call her dear, Laura happily kissed William's lips. Then she slapped William's face and pouted.
"You bastard, I was so accommodating to you before, I didn't even hear you call me darling. Now that there's food, you immediately call me that."
"Woo, woo, woo." While the two of them were whispering sweet nothings to each other, King Kong, who was already hungry, immediately growled in dissatisfaction when it smelled the meat but couldn't eat it.
William, who was in a good mood, used his spiritual force to select a few large pieces of Tyrannosaurus rex meat, cut it into more than a hundred palm-sized pieces, and suspended them over the fire. He casually roasted them for a minute, sprinkled them with spices, and threw them to King Kong.
Unexpectedly, this guy was quite satisfied with the roasted meat that William carelessly made. After eating dozens of kilograms, he actually whispered to William in a flattering manner.
While William was helping King Kong to roast the meat, Laura was also helping him roast the meat and feeding it to his mouth.
Therefore, since he was idle, he had to help King Kong roast the meat five times in a row. After eating more than three hundred kilograms of meat, King Kong was satisfied and went to the downstream of the pool. He began to soak in the water to cool down and drink water.
While he was comfortably enjoying the delicious food and the personal service of a beautiful woman, a series of "beep, beep, beep" sounds came from the signal tower that was only in appearance on Sunday.
"This is?"
Laura, who was holding a skewer of meat in her hand, heard the beep sound. At first, she was stunned, then she happily threw away the skewer in her hand and walked a few steps to the side of the transmission tower.
She excitedly shouted, "William, William, what's going on? Could it be? "
"Yes, it's what you think." William walked over and put his hand on the transmission tower. The whole tower began to decompose into nanoparticles, which were integrated into his casual clothes through his hand.
William closed his eyes for more than ten seconds, then he said to the expectant Laura, "Our luck is good, this planet is only twelve light-years away from Earth.
Therefore, it took less than fifteen minutes for the signal to be transmitted. At the same time, two spaceships will arrive here through a space jump in half an hour.
At that time, the equipment carried by the spaceships will help us explore the situation of this planet and the species that live on it.
If you want to go back to Earth, it will only take half an hour to return to London. "
"This, this, this, this."
Laura, who was smiling a moment ago, heard this, her expression changed. She silently sat by the fire, holding her chin and looking at the fire. No one knew what she was thinking.
William shook his head. Of course, he knew what Laura was thinking.
If the two of them stayed on this planet, they wouldn't have to consider the other women on Earth. But once they returned to London, she would either have to integrate into William's life or give up.
For William, this was the reason why he didn't want to touch Laura for the past few years. Moreover, there was already a table of mahjong players at home, so he didn't want to continue to bring people home.
Laura leaned on William's shoulder and asked, "You probably won't marry me, right?"
"Unless you can accept the women in my family, otherwise," William said.
Otherwise, there was no need for William to say it. Laura was clear. "Forget it. I'm actually the latecomer. Moreover, if you really want me to stay at home and be your wife of the Grand Duchess of Devonshire, I probably won't be able to stay."
"However," Laura grabbed William's collar and said with a fierce expression, "before I fall in love with someone else, I want you to be on call. Do you understand?"
"No problem." This kind of thing was beneficial to William and didn't require him to take responsibility. It would be strange if he refused. "As long as I can do it, I will help you with anything.
Perhaps, "William thought for a moment and said with a smile," Or, you can be the Devonshire family's relic finder.
You can practice on Earth first, and then maybe I will take you to outer space to look for more mysterious and thrilling treasures and relics. "
"Look for relics in outer space?"
This proposal made Laura's eyes shine. Through looking for her father, then following the old Earl Crawford into the mysterious Yamatai Ancient Tomb, then entering this alien planet.
Laura's restless heart had actually fallen in love with exploration.
As she said, even if she really became the Duchess of Devonshire, she would certainly not be content for long. She would certainly encourage William to go on adventures with her.
