Chen Fan arrived in a world ruled by "gods."
The statues of gods spoke with synthesized electronic voices; divine blessings bestowed mechanical prosthetic limbs...

Chapter 391 Collision Warning!
The scene outside the porthole of the research ship began to change dramatically.
A large number of light spots and light bands quickly retreated behind him.
Chen Fan knew in his heart that they were many cosmic bubbles distributed in the hyperspace membrane and the natural order field.
Unlike the cosmic bubbles seen in the five-dimensional space in the past, these cosmic bubbles are now surrounded by a faint halo, and the shapes are also slightly or heavily distorted.
It's like...
a layer of frosted glass of varying thicknesses.
"Academician Wang..."
A guess flashed through Chen Fan's mind. He turned his head to look at Wang Jing, who was immersed in various complicated observation data: "Are we now... inside the hyperspace membrane?"
Wang Jing did not reply immediately. She carefully compared the various observation data presented in the holographic panel in front of her, and finally shook her head hesitantly.
"Theoretically, this is not a hyperspace membrane."
As she said, she stretched out her hand and swept it across the air, calling up a huge five-dimensional star map.
In the star map, the hyperspace membrane is like a winding net, extending continuously in the boundless five-dimensional space. In the center of this hyperspace membrane, there is a unique cosmic bubble.
Seeing the shape of the half-sunken hyperspace membrane, Chen Fan realized the identity of this cosmic bubble - EL13697101 node universe!
Wang Jing reached out and adjusted the perspective of the holographic image: "When building the star gate and other supporting facilities, the Academy of Sciences once conducted various explorations on the node universe."
"You should also know that the scale of the virtual abyss near the node universe is extremely large."
Chen Fan was stunned at first, and then nodded repeatedly - the microcosm that wrapped the Varela star at that time fell into the virtual abyss formed by the node universe and the hyperspace membrane.
Not only that, the TE1571 research ship was also attacked in the virtual abyss.
"You mean, we are in the abyss now?" Chen Fan frowned and turned to look at the scene outside the porthole, "It looks..."
Chen Fan questioned: "It seems to be different from the abyss I saw at that time!"
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan unhappily: "Listen to me first."
"According to the exploration of the Academy of Sciences, the node universe not only has a huge abyss, but also has a very large adhesion area with the hyperspace membrane."
As Wang Jing's voice fell, the picture in the holographic star map changed quietly: the huge slit around the node universe gradually narrowed, and finally, the two sides of the slit were completely glued together.
"This is the connection area between the hyperspace membrane and the cosmic membrane."
"To make an analogy, it is like the estuary of a river. The hyperspace membrane and the cosmic membrane merge and merge in this area, eventually forming this special connection belt." Wang Jing's voice continued to come, "Compared with the conventional universe, the connection belt of the node universe is extremely large. Conservative estimates are at least a hundred times larger."
"We are here now."
"Do you see the haloed and severely distorted images of the cosmic bubbles around?" Wang Jing pointed to the picture outside the porthole calmly, "The hyperspace membrane near the node universe is bent into a huge concave lens, so this scene appears."
"If my judgment is correct, it will not take much time for the images of these cosmic bubbles to return to normal."
As the voice fell, the scene outside the porthole also changed abruptly - just like a frame skip after a freeze, the many distorted light spots suddenly shrank and turned into light spots that were almost as small as fine sand.
The halo around the light spots still exists, but its original distortion effect has disappeared.
Just as Wang Jing said just now.
Seeing Chen Fan's surprised expression, Wang Jing smiled slightly, with a profound attitude that everything was under control: "Now, the research ship has passed through the connection belt between the node universe and the hyperspace membrane, and has completely entered the hyperspace membrane."
"From the process just now, we can simply calculate our speed in the macro channel." Wang Jing quickly input various complex parameters into the holographic panel in front of him, "Due to the influence of gravity, the hyperspace membrane itself is uneven, but most of the time, its thickness fluctuates around the average value."
"So..." Wang Jing skillfully typed the last string of characters, "We can roughly calculate the next voyage time."
The shipboard main brain quickly gave an answer.
"Five minutes." Wang Jing raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, "In about five minutes, we can see the true appearance of the back of the hyperspace membrane and the anti-universe."
Chen Fan looked at Wang Jing in front of him in shock.
At this moment, the image of Wang Jing as a "kickback" that he had left in his mind collapsed!
"You...are not a biological academician?" Chen Fan asked cautiously, "You also know this?"
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan, with a faint look of contempt on her face: "It's just an advanced application of dimensional theory and pan-universe theory. If I don't even know this, wouldn't I become Song Ziliang?"
Chen Fan's eyes twitched slightly: "..."
Is this a new unit of measurement?
It is known that one Song force is equal to the basic academician of the People's Federation. Please, how many Song forces does Wang Jing, a first-level academician, have?
"Cough!"
Chen Fan coughed lightly, suppressing the messy thoughts that kept emerging in his mind. He smiled with a bit of guilt: "It's not good for us to talk about Academician Song behind his back like this?"
"It's okay." Wang Jing smiled and waved his hand, "He doesn't have as much authority as me, so he can't do anything to me."
"As for you..."
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan meaningfully and smiled silently.
The smile on Chen Fan's face froze instantly: "...Fuck."
After all the fuss, he turned out to be the one at the bottom of the contempt chain, right? !
Also, did he almost fall into a trap again just now? !
"Chen Fan..."
Just as Chen Fan was silently sorting out his fragmented feelings, Isa's timid voice suddenly came from beside him.
At the same time, he felt a small hand gently poking his arm.
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, and turned his head in surprise to look at Isa who had come close to him at some point: "Isa?"
"Look, that thing outside... is it the anti-universe bubble?"
Isa's eyes were filled with worry, and she pointed to the porthole.
"Academician Wang just said that we have to sail for at least five minutes to pass through the hyperspace membrane. Now it's only been more than a minute. How is it possible..."
Chen Fan muttered while looking in the direction of Isa's finger.
Suddenly, his voice suddenly stopped: "...Fuck?!"
Outside the porthole, against the background of scattered light spots like fine sand, a huge round bubble was heading towards the research ship head-on! !
It was a complete cosmic bubble! ! !
Almost at the same time, a piercing alarm sounded in the cockpit of the research ship.
[Warning! ]
[Abnormal gravitational fluctuations detected! ! ! ]
[The source of gravitational fluctuations has been determined: There is a large unknown cosmic bubble in front of the starship! ]
"Wang...Academician Wang?"
Chen Fan swallowed hard, and cast a sidelong glance at Wang Jing in the main driving seat: "Is this situation...normal?"
Unlike the previous confident attitude, Wang Jing's face was full of shock and disbelief.
"Normal ass!"
Wang Jing cursed.
She frantically called up several observation data on the blood-red holographic interface: "How can there be a cosmic bubble inside the hyperspace membrane?!"
"This, this does not conform to the theory of the human union!!"
[The shipboard main brain has activated the emergency brake...]
[Warning! Braking failure! ! ! ]
[Collision warning! The shield system is running at full power! ]
[Please prepare for the impact, the ship is about to collide with an unknown cosmic bubble! ]
Chen Fan took a deep breath and quickly returned to his seat.
Like Chen Fan, the two assistants and Wang Jing also sat down quickly.
The next second, a strong suction force sucked everyone's body firmly to the seat. Not only that, several devices resembling seat belts automatically popped out from the back of the seat, binding Chen Fan and others layer by layer.
As for the red stone...
her body is special, and there is no seat suitable for her in the cockpit, so...
Under Chen Fan's gaze, this huge crystal is like a mural, firmly bound to the wall behind the cockpit.
"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!"
"Brother!! I can't stop!"
Along with the shocking cry of [Gaia] in the communication channel, a shuttle-shaped research ship and a khaki planetary fortress collided directly with the cosmic bubble in front.
Buzz!!!
Violent vibrations came from all around the ship. Outside the porthole, the golden shield seemed to have been hit by some invisible impact and suddenly became bright!
This is the result of a direct conflict between the research ship and the unknown cosmic membrane! !
The TE913 research ship crashed under such circumstances at that time! !
"Emergency dimensionality reduction, prepare for forced landing!"
Wang Jing looked solemn and gave an order to the ship's main brain.
Wow!!!
Dazzling light spread out from the ship, even covering the bright golden shield around it!
In the distance, the surface of the khaki [Gaia] also lit up with dazzling light at the same time!
These are the photons that escaped during the emergency dimensionality reduction process!
...
The vibration gradually stopped.
The dazzling light around the ship gradually dimmed, and the surrounding shields also gradually returned from bright gold to light gold.
Chen Fan shook his dizzy head and looked out the porthole.
The picture outside the porthole gradually became clear.
It was a familiar starry sky.
——The last picture sent back by the black hole detector was this mirror starry sky.
Not far away, a number of uniquely shaped devices were floating silently in the starry sky.
That was the black hole detector released by the scientific research ship not long ago!
Farther away.
A huge fleet that was in tatters and seemed to have experienced a life-and-death battle was quietly hovering in the starry sky, slowly flashing flickering fluorescence.
It was as if welcoming their arrival.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Fan widened his eyes slightly and murmured in a low voice: "Anti... Is this the anti-universe?!"
It is not located on the other side of the hyperspace membrane as described by Wang Jing, but "wandering" within the hyperspace membrane!
"This... How could this be..."
On the other side, Wang Jing also murmured in confusion.
