Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 917 Psychedelic
In the year 1388 of the Star Cluster Era,
Early August.

After nearly a week of long voyage, the Swan was finally about to round the Big Hole.

Since Li Chengxi felt that simply driving the boat was too boring, he quit and went on strike, and the operation of the Swan had to rely entirely on humans.

However, as a warship that was retired after only three years of service, the specifications of the Swan are not much different from those of active warships. It was retired only because of the rise of magic mecha, which made the old models of ships less adaptable to magic mecha.

A large amount of automation makes its operation much simpler. As long as there is no combat, there only need to be two or three people on the bridge at all times.

“I’m done!”

In the bridge, Shanna stuffed the pen into the card holder and danced with joy.

Shanna had not completed her basic education before she had to leave Blackhand Port and board the Swan, but at least she had to be literate and know basic math.

So during this period of time, several people took turns teaching Shanna and assigned her homework.

But no matter where you are, doing homework is a headache, so it is not difficult to understand how happy Sana was after finishing her homework.

“Good, basically everything is done right”

"Can I go play now?"

"No."

Like a magic trick, Long took out a stack of teaching materials from behind him.

"Here are some exercises. Please write them down."

"..."

Alyssa, who was sitting in the captain's seat, raised her eyelids when she saw this. When she was a child, Long was also responsible for teaching basic subjects. Whenever she thought of the tragic situation back then, it would bring back psychological trauma.

At this time, An Yun, who was in the navigator's position, suddenly said:
"We are almost at the designated location and are about to start the last jump."

Alyssa nodded and turned on the ship's broadcast, notifying everyone to come to the bridge.

It would be inappropriate to ask Sana to do her homework during the transition, so Long could only put away the exercise book with a little regret.

——Escaped a disaster.

After everyone arrived and fastened their seat belts, Li Chengxi suddenly said:
"Almost there?"

"You're really in a hurry. Yeah, we're almost there."

Li Chengxi didn't speak for several days and only showed up when the time was almost up, skipping the boring long journey.

Of course, Li Chengxi just wants to play a space war. Long-distance travel is so boring.

Now that Li Chengxi appeared, the control of the Swan was once again in his hands. According to the coordinates sent by An Yun, he changed the Swan's forward trajectory, and when it reached the designated position, he immediately started the jump.

The dim light shone on the bridge for a few seconds, and then the dark background of the universe appeared before their eyes again.

This is a star system with stars similar to the sun, but the planets seen as far as the eye can see do not look like they are inhabited by humans. They are either stone balls or gas planets, with no traces of human activity at all.

"Are you sure you gave the right coordinates? This place doesn't look like anyone lives here."

"Yes, you can see it if you drive a little further ahead."

The Manta increased its engine output and continued to move forward.

On the way, we could see some distorted images of the airspace, and then large cargo ships appeared, and occasionally warships and other ships appeared, not just the Swan. A place with so many ships must have either an Earth-like planet or a space station, but to be honest, I didn't see anything that looked like a space station.

However, these cargo ships seemed to know where to go, and they were all heading in the same direction.

About four or five minutes later, the starry sky directly in front of the Swan became distorted on a large scale, as if one were looking in a funhouse mirror.

Immediately afterwards, a red planet was squeezed out from the distortion, and the effect was like squeezing out an egg yolk.

This scene itself was amazing enough, but then the red planet seemed to rotate and move to the other end of the field of vision at a speed visible to the naked eye, re-merging into the distortion and disappearing.

When the red planet disappeared, a blue planet was squeezed out from the distortion, and the two planets repeated the cycle over and over again.

"There are eight planets in this system in total, but the orbit of the fifth planet is barely visible."

Alyssa had obviously been here before, and explained calmly:

"The red and blue stars we just saw are just satellites. They are in a natural space distortion, entwining and rotating with each other and revolving around the star. This is called a unique duet."

The universe is indeed vast and boundless, and there are all kinds of strange things in it.

"Just drive over there, we won't be hit by the planet, right?"

"No, it just looks like they are very close from the outside. In fact, those celestial bodies are in a special space distortion. There is a separate space inside. Just drive through it."

Since Alyssa said so, Li Chengxi let go of the accelerator and continued to steer the Swan closer.

This experience was magical. The Swan seemed to have hit a soft, fluffy, translucent wall directly. The next moment, a barrel-shaped hole opened up in the wall to accommodate the Swan in.

And inside the cave, there is another kind of scenery.

You can see a land full of lights appearing right below you. As the Swan goes deeper, the land begins to bend upward, and finally the land appears around this barrel-shaped hole. It's as if the Swan is passing straight through the center of a huge planet.

This scene reminded Li Chengxi of the classic 2001: A Space Odyssey, which has a philosophical flavor.

As we continued to move forward, the empty picture began to distort, forming complex lines that could not be seen at a glance. In some parts, we could see cities and farmlands on the surface of terrestrial planets, and in some parts, we could see the refracted starlight in the universe, which was dazzling.

Fortunately, this situation did not last too long. After two or three minutes, the hole and the images of the Earth-like planet disappeared without a trace.

Swan once again passed through what looked like a translucent wall, this time appearing against a seemingly normal cosmic background.

To the naked eye, they appear to be standing still without moving much, but if you look to the front left, you will see two satellites, one red and one blue, slightly larger than the Moon, orbiting a previously invisible Earth-like planet.

"The locals call themselves Mormo, which is said to mean the only one. Before they were able to enter the void, they always thought they were the only habitable planet."

This is not surprising. After all, they are in a special space warp. If they are not close, they cannot see that there is an Earth-like planet in the galaxy.

However, this is now a busy shipping route, and ships coming around from the other side of the big hole will come here for replenishment and unloading operations.

After briefly marveling at the wonders of the universe, Li Chengxi asked:
"Where to go now?"

"Let's go to the space station. We don't have to enter the atmosphere this time."

This is a good thing, at least if the Swan gets into any trouble, it can escape quickly.

It was this kind of thinking mode based on the premise of "causing trouble" that made Alyssa feel a little bit shocked...
